Rev. Munther Isaac calls for intervention in Gaza to 'stop the genocide' | LBC

Speaking to Matt Frei, the Palestinian pastor raised in Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank underlines the parallels between the Israeli oppression of his people and the crucifixion of Jesus at the centre of his faith.

This comes as despite a week of tensions with Israel over its conduct of the Gaza War, Washington is reported to have authorised arms transfers to its ally worth billions of dollars.

A lot of respect for Rev. Isaac, a true Christian 🕊️

[headrush]

Matt Frei makes a mistake here. Its not a religious war. Its settler colonial war from inception snd will remain so.

[anwarnanuhussain]

Stop saying Israel’s war against Hamas!! It’s against Palestinians!!!

[OmarioKing_]

Palestinians will never surrender. Justice will prevail.

[AlanFinlayfloydf]

A blind man can see what is needed in Gaza. If Israel gets away with this the world is finished. I've never seen such evil

[ghanembahri]

What should be an appropriate response ?
Give back Palestinians thier rights and lands

[brianferguson]

Repeat a lie often enough, and eventually it will become Israel !!

[berosmith]

Rev Isaac is very optimistic when he says 'justice will be done!' I hope he is right.

[peterjones]

Since it's inception Israel has caused some much turmoil in the middle east and wider world.

[Quran_in_a_nutshell]

Rev Munther Isaac is the definition of common sense and leadership

[kaytee]

Matt Frie reading directly from the Israeli foreign office script.

[ZZ-ekmx]

Archbishop Welby refused to meet the Palestinian Reverend or condemn the Israeli massacre of Palestinians - tells you a lot about who the real Christian is.

[allanfarran]

Always remember who bank rolls Israel, the USA

[Mayacute-slay]

That war is not against Hamas but the Palestine people.

[mohammedsharif]

Free Palestine and all wars will stop and the settlers from river to sea can go back home to Europe and America.

[nemrutbaba]

The Reverend is right. I hope Matt can be redeemed.

[tahminachoudhury]

I don’t get why this presenter tries to categorise the pastor as a mediator. This has never been about religion, it’s always been a land grab

[ValerieBates-hwty]

All respect to Rev Isaac Munther for his teachings and guidance. If only the world listened to him it would be a better place for everyone.

[JoeyFreeman-elnz]

This pastor has integrity and honesty, says the reality as it is.

[cwhit]

I hate how the host frames the issue as Christians stuck in between these two religious factions. I just shows the unwillingness to learn about this issue. It’s Palestinians being oppressed in order to make a Jewish state. The Palestinian Christians are also being oppressed.
