Wednesday, April 23, 2003 Vatican official cautions against U.S. 'moral isolationism.'Cardinal Achille Silvestrini, who advises the Vatican on international affairs, said Pope John Paul II's opposition to the war in Iraq proved to be prophetic and brought Christians together like never before on a global issue.
