About this sermon
The Catholic Church, under Pope Francis, advocates for a two-state solution, with both Israel and Palestine coexisting peacefully. In 2015, the Vatican officially recognized the state of Palestine, a move intended to promote negotiations and peaceful resolution. The Church's position is rooted in a commitment to the dignity of all individuals and a call for justice and respect for the human rights of both Israelis' and Palestinians' human suffering and solidarity. Catholics are called to express solidarity with those who suffer, and this includes the innocent civilians caught in the crossfire of the Israel-Palestine conflict. Pope Francis has consistently expressed his deep concern for the suffering of those affected by the conflict. During his 2014 visit to the Holy Land, he invited both Israeli and Palestinian presidents to the Vatican for a peace prayer meeting, a gesture aimed at promoting dialogue and understanding. A member of the Philos Project Advisory Board and a scholar of Middle East Politics, Samuel Tadros, joins to share what conditions are like for Christians right now. Tadros explains whether Shukr's death in Lebanon indicates a weakening of Hezbollah and therefore a gradual liberation of Christians in the country. He discusses how this automatic association many in Lebanon make between Christians and the West, causes extra hardships for them. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
