Top Vatican cardinal calls US-Israeli strikes ‘truly alarming’

VATICAN CITY – The Vatican’s top diplomat warned on Wednesday, March 4, that the ongoing US-Israeli attacks on Iran undermine international law and said nations do not have a right to launch “preventive wars,” in an unusually direct criticism of the military campaign.
“If states were to be recognised as having a right to ‘preventive war’ ,,, the entire world could risk going up in flames,” Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, said in an interview with Vatican News.
Asked about the US-Israeli strikes, which have pressed on for the fifth day, Parolin said they had caused a “weakening of international law (that) is truly alarming.”
“The rule of force has replaced the force of law, with the conviction that peace can arise only after the enemy has been annihilated,” the cardinal told the Vatican’s media outlet.
It is unusual for Vatican diplomats to openly critique specific military campaigns. Vatican officials usually prefer to avoid press coverage and operate behind the scenes, leaving open the possibility of the Church serving as mediator in conflicts.
US President Donald Trump has said the strikes against Iran were needed to prevent the country from developing a nuclear weapon, which Tehran denies seeking, and to thwart its long-range ballistic missile program.
Parolin, the Vatican’s lead diplomat since 2013 and a front-runner in the 2025 conclave of cardinals that eventually elected Pope Leo XIV, is known as someone who is usually very cautious with words.
Leo did not address the ongoing conflict in his weekly audience on Wednesday with pilgrims in St. Peter’s Square.
The pope made an impassioned appeal on Sunday for an end to the conflict. He called for a stop what he termed a “spiral of violence.” – Rappler.com

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models
The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
