Pope Leo XIV has delivered a forceful denunciation of religious nationalism, calling any use of Jesus’ name to justify military conflict a “grave distortion” of the Gospel. Speaking from St. Peter’s Basilica, the first American-born Pope emphasized that the “King of Peace” cannot be co-opted as a mascot for ongoing global wars.
His remarks follow public statements from world leaders, especially in Washington, framing regional conflicts as moral or religious crusades. Pope Leo XIV rejected this framing, insisting the Church should serve as a “field hospital” for victims rather than fuel for war. This stance has created tension with the White House, where proponents of the “Finish the Job” doctrine see military force as necessary to protect religious minorities.
The Pope’s message is resonating with anti-war movements, including the “No Kings” protests, and is putting pressure on Catholic politicians to reconcile military objectives with faith teachings. As Holy Week unfolds, global attention is on whether this moral appeal could influence broader international attitudes toward the conflict.

Spain has officially closed its airspace to U.S. military aircraft involved in the war against Iran, a move confirmed by the Spanish Defence Minister as part of Madrid’s opposition to the conflict.
The decision goes beyond an earlier refusal to allow U.S. forces to use Spanish military bases for operations linked to the war, and forces American military planes to reroute around Spanish territory if they’re part of actions against Iran.
Spain’s government, led by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, says the action aligns with its stance that the military campaign lacks international legal authorization — and has drawn both diplomatic tension with the United States and broader attention in global discussions about the war.Spain has officially closed its airspace to U.S. military aircraft involved in the war against Iran, a move confirmed by the Spanish Defence Minister as part of Madrid’s opposition to the conflict.
