#1 The old boy is in such bad shape that they might almost be doing John Paul a favor.

#2 The Pope is a plausible target for terrorists. Insane, but plausible. But if they ever did it, and I think they might try, they would find that the world would become a very tiny place for them.

#3 One of those dumbass things that seems like a great idea, until you actually do it...

#4 R. McLeod---You have the right idea. The jihadis carefully plan, but they do not noodle through the entire BIG PICTURE. Knocking off someone like the Pope would galvanize alot of Europe and then even the EU-nicks would get their RRF and try to kick some ass.

#5 Forget the EU-nicks: Christianity is growing by leaps and bounds in South America and Africa, and some have worried about a "South-east" conflict pitting South Americans/Africans against the muslims. Assassinating the pope would enflame the South American street.

#6 Not smart asassinating the leader of the largest religion in the world.If they are looking for a holy war that would do it.
