Pope Benedict XVI listens to Patriarch Gregor III Laham during a ceremony in St. Paul Basilica in Harissa, near Beirut, Friday, Sept. 14, 2012. Pope Benedict XVI appealed for peace and reconciliation among religions Friday as violence over an anti-Islam movie spilled over into Lebanon within hours of his arrival in the tumultuous region. The pope flew into Lebanon for a three-day visit despite the recent unrest  including civil war in Syria, a mob attack that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans in Libya, and a string of violent protests across the Middle East stemming from the film, produced in the United States, which insults Islam.(AP Photo/Alessandra Tarantino)
