The human slaughter going on in Israel and Palestine are horrendous. In five days of the conflict, over 2,500 humans were slaughtered.
When renewed hostilities broke out on 7 September, the first reaction of President Joe Biden was not how to bring the conflict, which is eight decades old, to an end, but how to further prolong it. He assured Israel of rock solid support and military supplies. An old man like him ought to have learnt the good lessons of one of his predecessors, President Bill Clinton, for whom the eruption of fresh conflicts between the two sides, meant that there was little or no time to resolve the conflict.
The Bible proclaims in Mathew 5:9: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” It is a declaration that anybody who wants to be Christ-like must work for the peaceful resolution of conflicts, whenever they occur. The peacemaker is the one working to reconcile human beings with others and with God. It is an emphasis that He who we serve is “The God of peace” .
One of the men stoking the fires is American Republican politician, David Bog, whose mainly false claims that “Five times Palestinians rejected Israel’s olive branch – time to rethink?” have gone viral. He purports to be a researcher but his main book,He should also realise that as the General Overseer of the RCCG, his words carry weight, therefore he needs to weigh them before uttering them.
In the said video, Bog claims that Israel has offered the Palestinians a state of their own five times and that five times the Palestinians turned it down. He claims the first time was in 1936, when Arabs rebelled against the British colonialists who had seized the areas from the Ottoman Empire.
At the time of the bombing, the hotel’s southern wing housed the headquarters of the British Colonial administration. The bombing was part of the attempt by the Jewish group to force the British out. So how could Israel have offered the Palestinians a state and how could the latter have declined the offer? He said that after the 1967 war, the Arab states ruled out negotiations with Israel. How is this tantamount to an offer and rejection of statehood by Palestinians.
