"Why is there a demand to keep Palestinian Christians unseen?
When the BAPTIST Hospital was struck by air strikes from the Israeli military on Oct. 17, Western leaders referred to it as an 'ARAB' hospital to avoid naming it 'BAPTIST.'
When Saint Porphyrius Church—an 800-year-old Greek Orthodox
landmark—was targeted in #Gaza on Oct. 19, resulting in the deaths of 17 civilians, no Western outcry followed.
WHY? Because it challenges the prevailing narrative of 'othering' the Palestinians and promoting Israel as an extension of Western civilization in the region.
Dehumanizing Palestinians begins with labeling them as 'other,' as seen when the conflict is depicted simply as an Israel-Hamas confrontation—implying that Israel is merely countering a threat from 'terrorists.'
It is far simpler to
marginalize Arab and Muslim Palestinians. Yet, it becomes more difficult for a Western audience when the 'other' is a Christian from the Holy Land, stirring deep-rooted religious and secular associations.
Palestinian Christians exist, including those in Gaza, and they deserve recognition and the right to a life equal to that of the broader Palestinian community."
