 | | SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) -- Tearful and angry faithful gathered at Sarajevo's cathedral Thursday for a Mass left hollow by the absence of the pope, as John Paul II, grounded in Italy by security fears, called on Serbs, Croats and Muslims to forgive. |
 | | A papal envoy, Monsignor Francesco Monterisi, said in Sarajevo that the pope still hoped to visit "in one of the next few days, in the near-future." But with security still a nightmare, it was unclear what would make the pontiff change his mind. |
 | | Sarajevo has been under Serb siege since April 1992, when Bosnia's Serb minority rebelled against a decision by the republic's Muslims and Croats to secede from Serb-dominated Yugoslavia. |
