  • Red hot

    Pope Benedict XVI waves after his speech during a ceremony in Bkerke, near Beirut, Lebanon, Saturday, Sept. 15, 2012. Pope Benedict XVI told Syrians at a rally for young people that he admired their courage and that he does not forget those in the Middle East who are suffering. On a day of appeals for religious freedom in the region, he said it was time for Muslims and Christians to work together against violence and war. He spoke on the second day of his visit to Lebanon, a country with the largest percentage of Christians in the Middle East. He arrived amid a wave of violent demonstrations over an anti-Islam film across the Muslim world. (AP Photo/Alessandra Tarantino)
