Pope Francis revealed in his upcoming memoir he was the target of two assassination attempts during his 2021 visit to Iraq.
British intelligence had apparently prevented a double-suicide bomb attack on the pontiff, according to The Telegraph. Excerpts from the book were first published in the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera on Tuesday. (RELATED: Catholic Bishops Urge Biden To Spare All Death Row Inmates Before Leaving Office)
“The [Iraqi] police had alerted the Vatican Gendarmerie to a report from British intelligence: a woman packed with explosives, a young suicide bomber, was on her way to Mosul to blow herself up during the papal visit,” Pope Francis revealed in the memoir, according to The Telegraph. “And a van had also left at full speed with the same intent.”
The pope had to overcome serious security concerns to make the historic trip, The Telegraph reported, but the occasion marked the first time a pontiff had ever visited the country. Iraq is the site of many biblically significant locations, but Christians have historically faced persecution and displacement from the land.
Francis expressed sorrow upon learning of the deaths of the failed assassins. “The Iraqi police had intercepted them and blown them up…This too was the poisoned fruit of war,” the pontiff said, according to the Telegraph. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
