Susanna Maiolo also attempted to attack the pope during last years Midnight Mass, although she was stopped by security. During both assaults it appears that she was wearing the same red sweater. Vatican spokesman, Rev Federico Lombardi said that “ She is known to the Vatican but she was never thought to have been of any serious danger to the Holy Father." Despite the attack the pontiff decided to continue the midnight mass services. Although noticeably shaken, he still delivered the traditional “ Urbi et Orbi ” speech. In this years speech he mentioned the current financial crisis, conflicts in Africa and Israel, and the state of the Christian minority in Iraq.
