Pastor from Bethlehem: "Israel Kills Christians Just as It Does Muslims"
A Call to Recognize the Shared Tragedy in Palestine Pastor Munther Isaac of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bethlehem (occupied Palestine) stated that Palestinian Christians face the same oppression as Muslims. He emphasized that Israel’s actions threaten all Palestinians, regardless of their faith.
Pastor's Statement
"The situation of Christians is no different from that of other Palestinians. Israel destroys people in Palestine without regard to their religion," Isaac declared.
He noted that Palestinians of all faiths face threats of displacement, genocide, and the impossibility of living normal lives.
The Christmas Tragedy
The pastor expressed anger over the prolonged tragedy in Gaza, which has deprived residents of the opportunity to celebrate Christmas.
"In a situation where Gaza faces tragedy, celebration is impossible," Isaac said.
He added that killings and destruction in Bethlehem and other occupied territories of the West Bank make life unbearable for both Christians and Muslims.
Religious and Political Dimensions
The pastor’s statement highlights:
- A shared fate for Palestinians. Christians and Muslims alike endure the same suffering under Israeli occupation.
- The need for international attention. Munther Isaac called on the global community to recognize the tragedy of Palestinians, regardless of their religion.
- Preservation of identity. The threats of displacement and destruction jeopardize Palestine’s cultural and spiritual heritage.
Conclusion
Pastor Munther Isaac’s words underscore the need for Palestinian unity in the face of a shared tragedy. He also calls on the international community to recognize the gravity of the situation and provide support to all those suffering under occupation.
