during the more than ten-year occupation of iraq by the us government, iraq's ancient christian community was completely devastated. 9 out of ten christians in iraq have disappeared, they are gone. this is a consequence of our foreign policy, but it was almost never noted in the united states, almost never even mentioned by the christian clergy in our country, most of whom supported that war and occupation. why? perhaps for the same reasons, almost all american churches remained silent. when christians were killed in syria, often by islamic extremists for money

united states, but everyone was silent, and anyone who spoke out was for some reason called a psycho or a fanatic. in the american media, protecting christians was taboo, we know firsthand, and this happened again in ukraine. the us government has sent more than $100 billion to the ukrainian government. and what happened, what did this government do? but it banned an entire christian denomination. zelensky's government is busy jailing orthodox priests and nuns and raiding churches. again no one didn't say a word. what about gas, what about the entire middle east region, where, of course, very intense fighting is taking place. many christian churches in the united states, especially evangelical ones, support this, but almost never say a word about the christians who live there, the ancient christian community in the gaza strip on the west bank, in israel itself. and because no one said a word, the christian population of this region experienced

great suffering. in october, the greek orthodox church in the gaza strip suffered an airstrike. we are now showing you a video. the church lies in ruins. at least 17 people died that day. yet this was not the first time that christians had died as a result of fighting in the region. remember the church of the nativity in iflien. almost 20 years ago, a clergyman was killed there with american weapons. but the christian clergy in our country remained silent. and you may be asking yourself: wait a minute, if christian leaders don't protect christian lives, why should they? do we even need them? that's a good question. so, you might think that.

stop it, the same thing is needed in ukraine. let's defeat putin quickly, instead of using 80% of our aid for humanitarian purposes, we should use 80 or 100% to destroy russian forces, if that is our goal. to be clear, from a theological point of view, christianity is not the religion of kheroshima and nagasaki. among all the world's religions, christianity clearly has an aversion to mass religions. murder, in fact, it is christianity that hates mass murder, from a christian point of view there is no justification for this, that is what the former pastor is calling for, but then again, how are christians in this region in gaza on the west bank in israel itself, we hear almost nothing about them, so we thought that there was it would be interesting, perhaps instructive, to hear

the opinion of one of them. rev. munter isaac, pastor of bethlehem evangelical lutheran christian church. and we are honored to speak with him now. father isaac, thank you very much for the interview. so first let me ask you a general question: how christians fare in the holy land, in the three places i mentioned, on the west bank, in israel itself and in gaza. how are they doing now? yes, first of all, thank you for inviting me. these are very, very difficult times and they have been difficult for quite some time. when i say difficult times, i mean... in the territory: the west bank, gaza actually means not only october 7, the fact that we are now divided, as you explained, into three israels, and we can add to this east jerusalem, which is a separate category, it is one element of our situation, which is that we are fragmented. so, in my church there are

families who have relatives in gaza, they cannot even visit them, before the war, they could not visit them and be with them. and this fragmentation, as i said, is one element of the situation, one of the biggest problems that we face now is the decrease in our numbers, people continue to leave due to the political reality, life under a very harsh israeli military occupation is unbearable, in as a result, many young palestinians christians continue to leave, for example, preferring to seek better and...

there are 800 to 900 palestinian christians, and any impact on our community, any death in our community will have a long-term effect. it is clear to me that many evangelical leaders in the united states care much more about the secular government of israel than they do about christian communities in the middle east. do you have a guess why this is so? sometimes, it's theology, theology. christian zionism, which teaches, for example, that christians should support israel because that's what the bible teaches, often as part of a larger end times theology in which they see the presence of the jews on this earth as preparation for the second coming

of christ, they see it as the fulfillment of prophecy, not realizing that... this means locally. i always say that for them this land seemed empty. they get excited about certain events without understanding the consequences of these events in real life. the irony is that many of these people actually believe, and many evangelical leaders believe that at the end of time and after the jews are gathered in palestine, two thirds of them will be exterminated, only 1/3 will convert to christianity, and somehow... believe that this is jew-friendly theology, not don't get me wrong, i am for christians and jews, as for all religions that unite and understand each other. but a serious problem arises when we make a certain religious group the object of our theology, and even eschatology, and treat it

accordingly, again, without understanding without really understanding what is happening on the ground, without even understanding how complex the state of israel is, how secular it is, how much it oppresses the palestinians,

it is quite easy to say: we support the israeli government, but if you touch one christian, harm one church, interfere with one one christian to practice his religion, you are finished. the us congress will not give you a single dollar. it doesn't seem difficult. i have to ask specifically about the church in gaza, which was damaged by an airstrike. who is this did? what do we know about this? so, there have been several incidents concerning the christian community in the gaza strip. and let's first explain that most christians live in the very center of gaza in the city of gaza itself, and - since the war began, they all decided

to hide in the two largest churches, orthodox and catholic, there is also a small baptist church, which, by the way, it also suffered from the bombing, but no one was hiding there, they decided to stay there, thinking, we don’t want to become refugees on...

small campus, the building that was damaged is located in close proximity to the historical church building, the church itself dates back to the 4th and 5th centuries, and the church took the hit, things could have been worse if, you know, the building that was hit by the bomb had not fallen on the historical church building, so it was a serious incident, in fact, so i...

is an ally of america, no one cares about christians being targeted. in fact, in the catholic church, two elderly women were killed by israeli snipers snipers and the catholic church talked about it. there were statements, official statements that said that it was israeli snipers who killed two women near the church, in front of the church, they were leaving the church and moving from one building to another, they were killed, shot when people tried to save them, in them. .. also shot, seven were wounded, it happened again, how can this be a mistake, this is our question, because they were in the middle.

but in older people. so about four or five members of our palestinian christian congregations died within the church due to disease. most likely due to lack of medical care or any medications. you can't go to the hospital. again, i invite people to listen to the story to understand what is going on. talk to the church leaders, the church leaders in jerusalem. about the problems and difficulties they faced before the war. or during the war right now in jerusalem. so, the speaker of the united states house of representatives, third after the president, third person in our political structure, self-proclaimed an evangelical christian, and a supporter of the israeli government. and i would be interested to ask him what he thinks about the fact that israelis who have converted to christianity have less rights, i don't know if he is aware of it, but he said that he supports

israel subtly. the modern secular state of israel, a political entity born in the 20th century to the people of israel in the bible and... this

turns the question, the theological question about the chosen people, into what i call the chosen state, the bible does not talk about the chosen state, and for me the most the big problem is that we give special attention to some group of people, give privileges to some group of people, tucker, i'm a theologian.

and i fully understand and am fully aware of the shameful history of christianity, especially when it comes to anti-semitism, but the problem of anti-semitism cannot be solved by blindly supporting zionism, especially since this

support of zionism comes at the expense of...
