Faith, politics, and armed resistance: A Palestinian-Christian perspective

At a Palestinian-Christian conference, speaker Hatem El-Sayegh argued that the ultimate moral path is to be "pro-Christ" rather than simply "pro-Palestine." He explained that an exclusive Christ is inclusive for all who come to him, challenging individualistic interpretations of faith. The piece notes that Gaza's small Christian community has clung to its faith to endure what is described as a two-year genocide by Israel. This perspective frames Christian love as a revolutionary act within the context of the ongoing conflict and armed resistance.
