US Christians need to stop vicariously persecuting the Palestinian Christians by supporting Israel

Open your eyes, the oppression of Palestinian Christians is what you are supporting when you stand with Israel.



Reporters in Gaza documented Palestinian Christians preparing for Christmas amid rubble, pain, and continuing daily attacks.

During Israel’s annihilation of Gaza, churches sheltering displaced people have been deliberately targeted by bombardments. In October 2023, just days after the deadly Israeli strike on al-Ahli Arab Hospital, an Anglican institution that killed over 500 people, Israel bombed the Church of Saint Porphyrius, the oldest in the Gaza Strip, ending the lives of at least 18 people.

Christmas celebrations in Palestine, the land where Jesus Christ was born, are marked by ongoing hardships. As the enclave endures nearly daily ceasefire violations by the Israeli army, the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Pierbattista Pizzaballa, describes the resilience of Gaza’s people as “a lesson for the world.”
