Major Christian leaders of the Catholic Church are warning the world that Jewish fanatics are driving Christians out of their lands and homes, as we read in Aleteia:
The situation for Palestinian Christians living in the Middle East is one fraught with trauma and the threat of extremism, said a group of mostly European bishops who recently returned from a pilgrimage.
The pilgrimage, said the group, was “to a Land where people are suffering trauma.”
The bishops compose the membership of the Co-ordination of Episcopal Conferences in Support of the Church of the Holy Land and come from England, Italy, Germany, Ireland, Iceland, France, Scotland, Spain, the United States, and Canada.
While in Israel and Palestine, the bishops first met with communities “on the margins of society” in the West Bank.
“They shared their experiences of a life on the periphery, being observed but often not encountered, their movement heavily restricted by rapidly expanding settlements encircling them on the surrounding hills,” said the bishops.
These settlers, said the bishops, regularly attack and intimidate the non-Jewish populations of the West Bank, including stealing livestock and destroying property.
In Teybeh, the only entirely Christian town in the West Bank, the population there faces “endless attacks from extremist settlers, uprooting of their olive trees, the seizure of their land and intimidatory acts that make their daily life unbearable, driving many into mass emigration.”
