This is what is happening in #Palestine - what can be done to stop the illegal and immoral settlements on the #WestBank?

The Israelis are eliminating one of the last Christian Palestinians strongholds in the West Bank and the place I chose to stay when I was researching the Palestinian Christians in From the Holy Mountain. It is a place with an incredibly ancient history, a cradle of Christianity, and its people have some of the closest DNA matches to the people of the time of Christ. Why is no one reporting this?

Palestinian Christian leader @MuntherIsaac, pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Christmas Church in Bethlehem, is in the U.S. to push faith leaders to oppose U.S. support for Israel's war on Gaza. "If you're silent knowing how your money is being spent, that means you approve."

Thanks @christian_aid for speaking out. Weapons kill people. They do not bring peace.

I lament yesterday's decision by an Israeli military court to renew Layan Nasir’s administrative detention for a further four months.
This young Palestinian Christian from Birzeit in the West Bank has been held in detention since 6 April on classified evidence that leaves her facing unknown allegations with no way to disapprove them – not knowing when she will be released, all the time without being charged, tried or convicted.
This is an egregious state of affairs, as is the fact that her transfer outside the West Bank to Damon Prison is in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention.
I ask the Israeli Government to look again at her case and that she be released. The widespread and routine manner in which Israel uses administrative detention of Palestinians as an instrument of Occupation is deeply discriminatory. It cannot be legally or morally justified.
May God watch over Layan during her detention and comfort her family at this testing time. #FreeLayan
