“We, the Heads of Churches in Jerusalem, watched with sorrowful hearts the horrific scenes of the brutal treatment of our clergy, people, and pilgrims in the Old City of Jerusalem during Holy Saturday…..A day of joy and celebration was turned to great sorrow and pain for some of our faithful because they were ill-treated by some Israeli policemen who were present around the gates of the Old City and passages that lead to the Holy Sepulcher.”-statement signed by leaders of the Roman Orthodox Church, the Latin Church, the Armenian Orthodox Church, the Custodian of the Holy Land, the Coptic Orthodox Church, the Syriac Orthodox Church, the Ethiopian Church, the Roman Catholic Church, the Maronite Church, the Episcopal Church, the Lutheran Church, the Syriac Catholic Church, and the Armenian Catholic Church
Eastern Christian leaders are reporting that Israeli forces are blocking full access to the Church of Holy Sepulcher. Eastern Christians celebrate Easter in May, and many reported being harassed and beaten by Israelis in Al Quds (Jerusalem).
On 09 May 2013, Israeli officials apologized to Egypt, for attacking Egyptian Christian diplomats, and a Coptic clergyman who was beaten unconscious, during the Coptic Easter Mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
And just think of how many Western False (infidel) christians in the United States support Israel, as well as how much tax dollars the U.S. government gives to Israel!
