One of the campaigns at greenbelt festival this year was 'Just Peace' - tackling questions about Israel-Palestine.
Many evangelical christians (and the rest of us for that matter) are oblivious to what is happening in the Holy Land.
Palestinian christians have come up with the Kairos Document (in December 2009) you can read the abridged version here:
I think we need to recognize the reality of Israel's policies towards the Palestinians - they are shaped by the priorities of colonialism.
Due to this we need to stand in solidarity with the Palestinians, who seek to act and resist occupation and domination.
It is justice that 'will produce lasting peace and security '(Isaiah 32:17)...
This Christmas may we remember that those living in Bethlehem today are living under occupation...
