Pope Francis: "Our war isn't against Islam. It's against evil."

Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans seem to spend a lot of energy attacking President Obama and Hillary Clinton for not calling terrorism radical Islam. Trump even called for the Presidents resignation over this issue. Now, Pope Francis has joined the fight.
Speaking aboard Shepherd One on his way to Rome earlier this week after a five-day trip to Poland, Pope Francis said: I think it is not right to identify Islam with violence. It is not right and it is not true. I believe that in every religion there is always a little fundamentalist group.
Francis acknowledged that there are violent Catholics, too. I dont like to talk about Islamic violence because every day, when I look at the papers I see violence here in Italysomeone killing his girlfriend, someone killing his mother-in-law. These are baptized Catholics.
Franciss remarks come a week after ISIS killed a Catholic priest during Mass in France. Father Jacques Hamel, 85, was celebrating a small weekday Mass when two ISIS-sponsored terrorists with knives enter into the church and slit the priests throat and held the congregation hostage before being killed by the police.
