John 4:5
So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

The Messiah had to travel through Samaria on his way from Galilee to Jerusalem. In Sychar, there was a plot owned by the Jewish forefather Joseph. When did this piece of Real Estate become non-Jewish? Was it during Roman occupation at the time Messiah walked on Earth? Or was it under the Ottoman occupation from 1517 to 1917? The Jewish property was not returned during the British occupation that ended in 1948. The Jews had to wait until the Jordanian occupation ended in 1967.

Two white doves that were released as a peace gesture by children standing alongside Pope Francis were attacked by other birds.

God did not use the doves of the Pope to send a message about peace and love.

As tens of thousands of people watched in St Peter’s Square on Sunday, a seagull and a large black crow swept down on the doves after they were set free from an open window of the Apostolic Palace.

Some nasty birds spoiled the whole show.

Not everything that comes from above on seems to be good. Not even the Popes doves.

One dove lost some feathers as it broke free from the gull. But the crow pecked repeatedly at the other dove. It was not clear what happened to the doves as they flew off.

My comment:

I do not think we should pay to much attention to this “peace initiative” from the Papacy. Jesus said: “Look at the birds”, related to created beings that do bot have to worry.

But the Messiah was not willing to let the doves of he Pope be used to underline the importance of this scripture.

Mark 5:36
«Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, “Don’t be afraid; just believe».

The Messiah even raised the dead daughter of a Rabbi. He was not against Jews in Power. But He rebuked the disbeliefs of the people in Power, and corrected their errors. He told His fellow Jews not to be afraid, but belive in His divine powers.

John 3:19
This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.

The Messiah is the light of the world. There is no darkness in Him. He healed the sick, raised the dead, drove out demons, feed the hungry, and rebuked people living in error. People hate to be rebuked, and become the enemy of God. People who hate the Messiah hate God. Some evil deeds are obvious. Others are hidden.
