Pope's Christmas address

"May the divine light of Bethlehem radiate throughout the Holy Land," he said. "May it spread throughout Lebanon, Iraq and the whole Middle East."
(Pope's Christmas address)

One has to wonder if the pope realises that that sentiment is probably quite insulting to those people who are not catholic (at a guess, the majority) in said lands... Or if he is completely oblivious to the tones of "my religion is the only one that matters".
