Kairos Palestine: “One Year On; Still Another Cry from Palestinian Christians”
In the face of the ongoing Nakba—defined by further ethnic cleansing, illegal occupation, an openly racist apartheid regime, and an accelerated genocide of the Palestinian people, funded in large part by the U.S. administration and enabled by Western powers—we pause on this one-year anniversary of October 7th to acknowledge and mourn the suffering and devastating loss of life of our siblings in Gaza and all those who are victims of war and violence. And to call for an end to the State of Israel’s continued killing and excessive destruction of infrastructure, housing and all aspects of life, reaching increasingly into the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and now Lebanon and threatening to ignite a region-wide war.
