Clipmarks | Vietnam Clips Showdown in Hanoi clipped by: Efrain Alvarado Clip Source: whispersintheloggia.blogspot.com Back in February, after the Vietnamese government sought to proceed with razing the former nunciature in Hanoi despite the churchs claims to the site, a monthlong protest -- which saw the citys archbishop volunteer himself for jail -- ended when officials yielded out of "respect for the Pope." "At 4 in the morning, about 200 police and two construction machines appeared at the site," said Father Nguyen Van Khai, a priest from nearby Thai Ha parish who is staying at the cathedral. "At about 4:30, they destroyed the wall and the other monuments on the site. They are blocking the whole neighbourhood. We cannot go out." "We are fighting for peace and justice," said Father Khai. "We are ready to die." Tags: catholicism, vietnam, church zum Artikel... Für die Inhalte dieses Feeds ist alleine der jeweilige Autor/Anbieter verantwortlich.
