The situation in Gaza NOW Every inch of Gaza is unsafe now. No food, no water, no electricity, no fuel, no medicine, no proper treatment, no everything! There is only continuous Israeli bombing everywhere!

Less than 24 hours of a brave reporter's observations & exclamations & tweets... day after day as Palestinians starve and die due to Israel's heavily armed racist quest to conquer all.

18m  Family relative: “Death toll is more than 40.. “There might be some survivors, but we have no equipment to remove the rubble and evacuate them!”

 

GMO in Gaza: “52 people including 50 CHILDREN have passed away due to malnutrition.”

 

Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit (@AJIunit) exposes Israeli war crimes through the use of videos and photographs posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves. What may have been intended as bravado has become a damning digital dossier http://aje.io/mhaby2

 

 

UNRWA Spokesperson: - Life is running out in the Gaza Strip, and we've reached post-disaster levels. - We have nothing to distribute to the people of Gaza, and the scarce food supplies available in the private sector are extremely expensive. - For the first time in conflict zones, vaccines for children are being prevented from entering. - We have more than 3,000 aid trucks ready to enter the Gaza Strip, but “Israel” is blocking them.

 

 

Two female Israeli “soldiers” kidnap a Palestinian boy, strip him, blindfold him and torture him!

As they starve Palestinians and block the entry of aid and food, the Israeli army staged a buffet amid the ruins of a destroyed neighborhood for its combat engineering units in Rafah, during their round-the-clock destruction of the city.

WFP & WCK have declared that food supplies in their warehouses inside Gaza are completely empty. Famine is rapidly worsening as Israeli genocidal war continues and all border crossings remain fully closed.

Evacuation of this baby raises the number of victims of the massacre committed by the Israeli occupation forces in Jabalia yesterday to 23 most of them are children!

Protesters in Tel Aviv held up portraits of Israeli hostages—next to it, photos of Palestinian children killed in Gaza. Humanity and sympathy know no borders.

"Yes, we reject what happened on October 7 and wish it had never happened. But we also reject the monstrous crimes being committed now against a defenseless people, trapped in a dirty war meant to crush their cause. Those who stay silent, who conspire, or who support the aggression on Gaza bear deep responsibility—for decades they failed to help free the Palestinian land and people from occupation, so that they too might live with dignity and freedom like the rest of the world.” Archbishop Atallah Hanna Friday, April 25, 2025

Manufactured Origins

“Those who condemn what happened on October 7 must not ignore the catastrophe inflicted on an entire people.

This is the problem we see in today’s world: the double standard. Humanity cannot be divided.

Just as the world condemns what happened on October 7, it must also condemn the crimes committed against our Palestinian people.

But the real question is: Who led us to October 7? Who brought Gaza to this catastrophe?

 The answer is simple but critical:

 Those who filled the world with speeches about peace did nothing on the ground to make peace real.

While conferences were held and treaties were signed, apartheid walls rose, Palestinian lands were stolen, and new settlements spread—as if these agreements were just ink on paper, offering nothing to Palestinians and doing nothing to build a just peace.

Today’s tragedy stems from the fact that the Palestinian cause was never resolved—and instead, a conspiracy to erase it has been unfolding.

They speak of peace, but never of justice. They want the Palestinian to live besieged, humiliated, stripped of the most basic human rights.

Yes, we reject what happened on October 7 and wish it had never happened.

But we also reject the monstrous crimes being committed now against a defenseless people, trapped in a dirty war meant to crush their cause.

Those who stay silent, who conspire, or who support the aggression on Gaza bear deep responsibility—for decades they failed to help free the Palestinian land and people from occupation, so that they too might live with dignity and freedom like the rest of the world.”

17 Goals to Transform Our World

The Sustainable Development Goals are a call for action by all countries – poor, rich and middle-income – to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. They recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental protection.

When Pope Francis stopped, touched the wall, and said a prayer, it was truly a monumental moment that made waves in world news. Pope Francis couldn’t help but notice the ugliness of this concrete structure at the heart of Bethlehem. This wall should make us all uncomfortable. To this discomfort, the Pope couldn’t help but react and reach out. By responding in this manner, the Pope touched more than the wall. He touched the ugliness of the occupation and war. He touched the depth of our suffering. With humility and weakness, he looked injustice in the eyes, and challenged it." The Other Side of the Wall by Pastor Munther Isaac

 

Pope Francis in Bethlehem, Palestine

Palestinian, and Palestinian Christians in particular, have lost a dear friend today. Pope Francis was beloved in Palestine. He conveyed true compassion to Palestinians, most notably to those in Gaza during this genocide. His pastoral heart was evident in his insistence on calling the Christian community besieged in Gaza on a constant basis, even from his hospital.

Some years ago, Pope Francis visited Bethlehem. We all remember the iconic image of him praying at the Wall. This is what I wrote about this incident in my book “The Other Side of the Wall”.

When Pope Francis stopped, touched the wall, and said a prayer, it was truly a monumental moment that made waves in world news. Pope Francis couldn’t help but notice the ugliness of this concrete structure at the heart of Bethlehem. This wall should make us all uncomfortable. To this discomfort, the Pope couldn’t help but react and reach out. By responding in this manner, the Pope touched more than the wall. He touched the ugliness of the occupation and war. He touched the depth of our suffering. With humility and weakness, he looked injustice in the eyes, and challenged it.

What did he say in his prayer? The truth is, I don’t want to know. Some words are better left unspoken. The image of him standing next to the wall and praying will forever be engraved in our memories. For me, this image went everywhere. On my office wall, Facebook page, desktop wallpaper. For us as Palestinian Christians, this image was stored deep into our memory. And when this wall falls one day (not if, when), we might go back to this moment and this prayer as one of the key moments that led to its fall.

At the end of the day, the Pope left, and the occupation and the wall remained. But we were left with a renewed sense of hope—knowing that we are not forgotten. We were left with a mandate to continue lamenting the current situation, to fight against injustice . . . and to pray. (The Other Side of the Wall, pp. 182-183)

The Pope left our world today, and the occupation and the wall remained. Even worse, he left our world while a genocide continues to unfold. Back in November he wrote: “I am thinking above all of those who leave Gaza in the midst of the famine that has struck their Palestinian brothers and sisters given the difficulty of getting food and aid into their territory… According to some experts, what is happening in Gaza has the characteristics of a genocide. It should be carefully investigated to determine whether it fits into the technical definition formulated by jurists and international bodies.”

Today I wonder: Will the millions who will mourn his death these coming days respect this wish of his? Will they care for Gazans and Palestinians the way he did?

May his soul rest in glory with his Savior. Humanity lost a special soul today.

“He was wounded for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities… and by his bruises we are healed.” — Isaiah 53:5

 

This verse speaks of a suffering servant — one who bears the wounds of injustice to bring peace and healing.

 

Easter isn’t just about resurrection — it’s about resurrection through suffering. And nowhere is that more alive today than in Palestine — the land of Christ’s birth, life, and death.
