Christian Perspective
The destruction of mosques and the killing of innocent people represent a horrific disregard for human life. From a Christian standpoint, the ongoing violence in Gaza and the West Bank is a tragedy that contradicts the sanctity of life. There is no biblical mandate for the modern state of Israel to engage in such bloodshed.
