Trying To Shoot Pope Down?

I saw the footage of Pope John Paul II's funeral. It mentioned that the Vatican is now enforcing the 24 or 48 hours of restricted airspace.

The Vatican requested the Italian Authorities to enforce the policy. The Italian Authorities agreed by dispatching several anti-aircraft batteries and a warship.

Who wanted to crash into the building that contains the corpse?

Or do they mean they wanted to shoot the Pope down should he ascend like Jesus?
