#514 - Iran Attacks Israel & Pope to Visit Singapore

This past weekend, Iran launched an unprecedented attack on Israel, supposedly in response to an earlier act of aggression on the Iranian consulate in Syria. The international response has been swift to condemn the attack, but also cautious in support for an Israeli counter strike. Why so? Also, it was announced that the Pope will be visiting our shores come September, the latest feather in the cap for Singapore’s standing as an international events hub. What can we expect from this historic papal visit?
