‘God does not bless any conflict’: pope issues new rebuke over Iran war

Pope Leo XIV, the first American to lead the Catholic Church, issued a social media rebuke on April 10, 2026, criticizing the Trump administration and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for using religious nationalism to glorify the U.S. and Israel’s war against Iran. He stated that God does not bless any conflict, emphasizing that peace comes only through coexistence and dialogue, and condemned the inhuman violence that has claimed thousands of lives since coordinated U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran began in late February 2026.
