ヴァチカン(法王)はアメリカにイラク問題の終結を望む。

非常に微妙な記事である。アメリカの駐ヴァチカン大使、ニコルソンの発言として、APが記事にしているのだが、ブッシュがイタリアの枢機卿、ピオ・ラギに語った約束、「イラクは早く上手に片づける」(We'll be quick and do well in Iraq)を、ニコルソンは記憶しておらず、しかし、ラギの発言を争わないというのである。

 全体の感じは、かつてのクレムリンの動向の分析、クレムリノロジーのような、まだるっこしいものであるが、カトリック権力の中心部で、アメリカのイラク問題の処理の不始末を、困ったことだと思う向きが、増えているということである。

法王は、アメリカの先制攻撃に反対し、大量破壊兵器の査察の継続を求めたのである。

Vatican Wants U.S. to Finish Job in Iraq

Tue Jan 11, 3:06 PM ET

By VICTOR L. SIMPSON, Associated Press Writer

ROME - The U.S. ambassador to the Vatican (news - web sites) said Tuesday that officials in the Holy See want the United States to remain in Iraq (news - web sites) and pacify the country despite Pope John Paul (news - web sites) II's opposition to the war.

John Paul strongly opposed what the United States called a "preventive war" in Iraq, urging instead that U.N. weapons inspections be allowed to continue.

"We had an honest disagreement between two great leaders and what happened, happened," Ambassador Jim Nicholson, recently nominated by President Bush (news - web sites) to be secretary of veterans affairs, said in an interview with The Associated Press.

Since then, most Vatican officials have been "forward looking," he said.

"I will say that virtually everyone I talk to at the Vatican do not want the United States to pull out of Iraq. They want us to stay in there, solidify and pacify Iraq and help it become a free, stable and democratic country," Nicholson said.

On Monday, an Italian cardinal sent to the White House by the pope in March 2003 in a last-hour bid to dissuade Bush from invading Iraq said the president promised the American intervention would be wrapped up quickly.


Cardinal Pio Laghi said Bush told him: "Don't worry, your eminence. We'll be quick and do well in Iraq."

Nicholson said he was present at that meeting and did not recall Bush saying that, although he said he would not dispute Laghi's statement.

Differences over the war aside, Bush's positions are in line with many of the Vatican's ― certainly more than his Democratic opponent in the November elections, Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites), a Catholic who supports a woman's right to have an abortion.

Nicholson acknowledged that when Bush met the pope and other Vatican officials in June, he asked their help in getting American bishops to support his programs.

The ambassador said the pope and others praised Bush and thanked him for his "courageous stand" on such issues as human cloning, the family and marriage that were "so congruent with the Vatican."

"The president thanked him for that affirmation and said it would be helpful if he could receive more of that from senior members of the church community," said Nicholson, a Vietnam veteran and a former chairman of the Republican National Committee (news - web sites).

In a Monday speech to diplomats, the pope put lobbying against gay marriage at the top of the Vatican's agenda for 2005. Bush supports a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage and 11 states adopted constitutional bans on gay marriage during the November election.
