Pope Francis denounced the cold-blooded murder of innocent people in Iraq on Sunday, many of whom are children, saying that this violence "makes us cry, leaves us without words."He was speaking in particular of the ongoing fighting to liberate Mosul, where the so called Islamic State is using entire families as human shields.Francis's words came at the end of his weekly Sunday Angelus prayer, where as usual, he meditated on a Gospel passage, before delivering yet another appeal for peace in the Middle East, something he's done regularly in the three years of his pontificate.Addressing the estimated 50,000 faithful gathered in Rome's St. Peter's Square to participate in the prayer, the pontiff said he was "pained to hear news of the murder in cold blood of numerous sons of this beloved land, among them many children.""This cruelty makes us cry, leaving us without words," he said.
