The Pope's opponents burst out in celebration at the east Rome campus when reached with the news of the cancellation... the 80-year-old Pope may yet have the last word... For the whiff of censorship... may offer ammunition for Benedict's belief that he is something of a "Pope under siege" in the face of the prevailing secular winds of his times.
