We would fly our flag over the vatican

On Wednesday, the Islamic state in Iraq and the Levant threatened to launch a war against the Catholic Church and an invasion of Rome, after publishing a picture of its black flag fluttering above the Vatican.

ISIS issued in its electronic magazine a threat to the heart of Christianity (Rome) after publishing a picture of a black flag waving above the Vatican, threatening to “wage war against the Catholic Church.”

ISIS has carried out a systematic campaign of bombings against many churches and religious edifices, trying to make its war waged on all religions and components with religious overtones.
