‘I mean from October we were saying this is ethnic cleansing and these are war crimes… If you follow the statements from Israeli leaders and the indiscriminate bombing of Gaza…. It was clear what they doing…they were eliminating Gaza, making sure that life in Gaza would never be back [to] the same way it was.’
In an extended interview, Reverend Dr Munther Isaac, the Lutheran pastor of Bethlehem, speaks about growing up under occupation, how Palestinian Christians have often been failed by the international Church, how the war in Gaza in an extension of colonialism and the world’s inaction to stop what he says is a clear case of genocide and ethnic cleansing.

As a Palestinian Christian, I agree with everything Reverend Dr. Munther Isaac has said. It baffles me too how many Christians that visit the holy land do not visit Bethlehem, which is a Palestinian town. They are deterred from going there and instead visit anything that is not in the occupied Palestinian territories. Palestinian Christians are erased several ways, right down to tourism. And then people wonder why there are such a tiny amount of Christians left in the so-called holy land. At this rate, there will be no Christians left to guard the Christian churches and landmarks. And I am thoroughly disgusted with Christians in the United States. I literally paid to have an intention read in mass here in America, to pray that the people of Gaza have food and water to drink. The Catholic priest just rejected my intention, and said I have to sanitize it by just praying for peace in the Middle East. Needless to say, I sent him loads of reading material to educate him on the subjugation of Christians in Palestine. It all went to deaf ears, no response. Real Christianity is dead in the United States, and has been appropriated by heretic evangelical doctrine. It is priests like Dr. Munther who gives me hope in the Christian faith, and I thank him profoundly. It is literally men like him that keep the holy land holy. Bethlehem is not a fairytale city from the Bible. It is real, and it is completely populated by Palestinians since ancient times. They are the living stones of Christianity.

Pastor Issac, I'm an American and none of this was ever okay. My government's complicity and covering up the crimes of the Israeli state is UNFORGIVEABLE I am so deeply sorry it pains me to watch all of this suffering and not be able to stop it. I don't understand how the world can look away from what's happening to your beautiful people in their own land. My heart and mind will never recover. My only consolation is that Israel seems to be destroying themselves in the process. I don't believe they can exist as a state without their hatred of Palestinians.... They will turn on each other and destroy themselves. Hopefully sooner rather than later. I just want Palestine to live 😭💔

I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to Pastor Munther. I am a Maronite Catholic & a Palestinian Activist. I'm Lebanese/South African. I can honestly say that the major problem in Christianity today are these so called 'born again' Christians led by $ seeking Pastors whose interpretation of the Bible leaves a lot to be desired. Their love of Israel as 'The Chosen Land', is a gross misinterpretation of The Word of God. As a Catholic I am taught, "If I have no charity & love does not flow from me, I am nothing, Jesus reduce me to love". Having said that let me add that I have great respect for the Palestinians & will continue to fight on their behalf. I condemn Israehell for this very cruel & heartbreaking genicide. God bless & be with you dear Pastor 🙏 ❤️

Paying a tax is not the problem. If not all countries on Earth, most countries on Earth have a tax that the population has to pay because thats how a "community" mantains its country and takes care of everyones needs. Look at for example Canada. Tax percentage in Canada is according to how much you make. It can be almost half of your pay check, which is a lot of money (extreme/unjust). When a country is being run by just leaders, paying taxes shouldn't be a problem, it should feel good, because you see the fruits of it. The problem is when you know that hat your government is taking away a lot of money from its hard working population to buy weapons to qill innocent people. Meanwhile the homeless ppl in that country is increasing every year. The medical system not that great. Etc. So for example, in Islam the taxes for Muslims is 2.5% of their wealth. If you are a non Muslim in a Muslim country the tax you pay is less than that. But the idea is that you are collaborating with that country and that in return you are taken care of, safe. Pa lestinian ppl paying taxes to a white supre macist ge nocidal dicta torian "state", that stole your land, steal your homes whenever they want, imprison you, torture you and qill your ppl for nothing. That is a ridiculous (I don't know what word to use) tax to have to pay. Give money to the ppl that might qill me and my children. Unbelievable.

That's a fantasy. It wasn't just the Jews. If you know history and geography, you'd know the Canaanite and philistine intermingled descendants who still lived on the land also had to pay taxes. Don't let them be erased from the historical conversation. That region was never inhabitants by ancient Israelites alone (and they were foreign invaders who came onto the land long after the Canaanite and Philistine)

ignore these big religious and political world titles. They are all of the same club. the very few that tries to rebel they are silenced or forced to moderate their statements. This has been happening for decades by the way. but now it has blown out of proportion.

First they came for the Muslims, but i did not protest because they did not come for me. Then they came for the Druze, but i did not protest because they did not come for me. Now they are at my door, and there is no one left to protest for me.

No, the Palestinian people are one people, regardless of faith. Palestinian society is one, regardless of various faiths and ethnicities. The Palestinian people have refused to be divided despite the best efforts of their invaders and oppressors. The Zionist try to divide and conquer by subjugation the Muslim Palestinians to additional measure of humiliation and oppression, but the Palestinian Christians have never idly accepted it or stood by.

Thank you Munther Isaac for your frank and honest accurate analysis of your plight as a Palestinian priest struggling to hold onto your dream of a free Christian Palestinian man's inalienable right to live in his homeland without fear or prejudice and to peacefully continue to your dying hour to advocate for a free Palestine for you and all Christian Palestinians to say we are Palestinian living in Palestine and holding Palestinian Nationality with a Palestinian Passport to come and go back and forth to you country without fear or distress.
