Israel’s campaign is justified by a campaign of dehumanization based on anti-Muslim, anti-Palestinian prejudice. So tonight, join CFP as we tackle those two issues & think about how our tradition has been complicit, and how we as Christians can combat these prejudices, & end the Palestinian Nakba.

Christians for a Free Palestine @xians4palestine.bsky.social · May 15

Today, we witness the most horrific chapter of the Nakba as Israel is in the process of intentionally starving 2.3 million Palestinians.

It is our responsibility to end the starvation, end the genocide, and end the Nakba.

Christians for a Free Palestine @xians4palestine.bsky.social · May 15

We grieve 77 years of expulsion, displacement, dispossession, & ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by the Israeli government & military. Nakba (Catastrophe) is living history as Palestinians are still forced from their homes, land, & community thru violence, bombings, seizures, apartheid, & genocide.

If Jesus Christ is risen indeed, then so, too, let Christian resistance to settler-colonialism and Zionism rise with him.

If the passivity of the people is what makes possible the violence of Israel, an outpost of American imperialism, let us repent together, ask God for forgiveness, and resolve to continue building opposition to Zionism in the ongoing fight for a free Palestine.

This Good Friday, we grieve once again as Palestine and its people are crucified on the cross alongside Jesus. Continuing the long traditions of empire and colonialism, the State of Israel has mistaken its power for authority, its genocidal assault for salvation, and itself for God.

Lots of love to everyone who amplified our collective resistance yesterday — whether you were in DC, turning out for local actions, or praying from home, it’s good to remember that we are so much more powerful together. ❤️

Christian Zionism has dangerous consequences. In Silwan residents are experiencing displacement by the Israeli government and settler organizations who are replacing living Palestinian neighborhoods with a biblical theme park catered to tourists.

The Christian Zionism upheld by Mike Huckabee, nominee for ambassador to Israel, works against that love and our collective liberation.

The end game of Christian Zionism is the destruction of land, of people, of hope, and freedom.

“It’s not God’s peace without justice! Free Gaza Now!”

These Christian leaders joined our Jewish kin today in beautifully living into the call of Psalm 101:1 and singing of God’s love and justice for Gazans and Palestinians.
