Not just that but Christian numbers in Palestine have gone down significantly because of what Israel and the IDF has done to them for decades since the Nakba in 1948. I wish more American Christians questioned the conditions Christians Palestinians have had to live under especially for those in Gaza and the West Bank. It’s all very heartbreaking. Father Emmanuel Musallam comes to mind because he once said something along the lines of “if they bomb your mosques raise the call to prayer from our church.” Christian and Muslim Palestinians are all living in terrible conditions and both communities do a beautiful job of supporting one another.
He was and they met on a birth right trip. What do Americans think goes on during a birth right trip?
