This guy is quite the character. I could understand his hostility toward Benedict, if he’s just been reading Turkish press in recent months. But the rest of it seems a little out there.
Agca had asked the authorities earlier this month to grant him early release from prison because he would be “devastated” not to see Benedict XVI when he visits Turkey, but Demirbag said today that “Ratzinger is a poor man and we would not like to meet him.”
He also gave to reporters a file containing handwritten ramblings by Agca, including a copy of a 1984 Time magazine cover featuring John Paul II and Agca shaking hands at a meeting in an Italian prison when the late Pope forgave his assailant.
“The Vatican is a centre of lies… I invite the Vatican to accept the divine truth in the perfect Bible that I have written,” Agca, who has long claimed to be a second messiah, wrote.
