The United Church of Canada made a revealing statement here: “United Church of Canada Calls for Immediate Ceasefire in Israel and Palestine,” United Church of Canada, October 7, 2023:
The United Church condemns the attacks launched on communities in southern Israel by Hamas, and the ongoing daily violence meted out against Palestinians by Israel’s deepening occupation in Palestinian territories….Echoing the statement issued by the World Council of Churches, The United Church of Canada is deeply concerned about the risks of spiralling conflict between Palestinian armed groups and Israeli forces.
For starters, no entity known as “Palestine” exists. Palestine isn’t a state, despite being declared one by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, which claims 57 member states, including “Palestine.”
Somewhere, somehow, the disingenuous World Council of Churches (WCC) and the BDS-supporting United Church of Canada (UCC) have missed the abundantly documented history of the Palestinian jihad against Israel. To call for a ceasefire in the midst of an all-out war is as ridiculous as calling for a “ceasefire” on “both sides” while the World War II was raging. This current Israeli war on Hamas in Gaza was initiated by Hamas, and it did so in the most calculated and gruesome fashion.
Hamas is supported by Iran and its proxies, and its unprecedented attack was launched at a time when Israel was perceived to be weakened — it was distracted by interference from the Biden administration in its internal affairs, an interference that is ongoing. Then there are the billions that have flowed into Iranian coffers via Biden’s hostage deal, and before that, Obama’s backroom deals (see also HERE); as well as continued Palestinian funding from the Biden administration.
In March, Palestinian Islamic Jihad declared that the “IDF is disintegrating before our eyes.”
The Palestinian imperative to obliterate Israel from the River to the Sea has been escalating for some time, escalating in brutality and boldness.
While sinister organizations, even those operating under the banner of Christianity, pretend to care about “both sides,” they conveniently ignore the key threat: the longstanding Palestinian jihad against Israel.
The United Church joins with all those praying for a just peace in the Holy Land and urges global leaders to work urgently for an end to the current violence, an end to the ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories, and a just and lasting peace for Palestinians and Israelis.
What the UCC is really requesting is that Israel stop defending itself. This would mean the obliteration of the Jewish state. The UCC cloaks its statement in a monstrous disguise — as a “prayer.”
Israel must defend itself alone. The gloves are off, and antisemites are being exposed everywhere.

4. Criminals of genocide, mass-rape, looting etc (Hiraba) will not be punished if they repent.
5. Muslims should engage in Taqiyya and lie to non-Muslims to advance Islam.
6. Theft is punishable by amputation of the hands (Quran 5:38)

29. A man can beat his wife for insubordination (see Quran 4:34).
30. A man can unilaterally divorce his wife; a wife needs her husband’s consent to divorce.
31. A divorced wife loses custody of all children over 6 years of age or when they exceed it.
32. A woman’s testimony in court, allowed in property cases, carries ½ the weight of a man’s.

35. Meat to eat must come from animals that have been sacrificed to Allah – i.e., be “Halal.”
36. Husbands are obliged to provide only food, clothes and accommodation to wives. Anything else including doctor’s fees, medicines etc is a charity to her. A rebellious wife does not get anything.

The Koran is a test to see how stupid and gullible people can be. The bible to some degree is not a hell of lot better.
Facts and reality trump beliefs and faith.
You may wait forever to a fantasy but reality will be all over you in a minute. Learn that.
Raghu says
Why should there be cease fire immdtly after brutal, savagery of Islamists? Unless these savages in human form are made to understand through retribution, their savagery on innocent civilized human will not end.

“And indeed whosoever takes revenge after he has suffered wrong, for such there is no way (of blame) against them.” – Quran 42:41
This is what Allah says, revenge is acceptable. Israel’s revenge on Hamas is sanctioned by Islam’s God so who is the UCC, or anyone, to cry foul?
J West says
The ceasefire should be called when all of Hamas and that other gang in Lebanon are all dead and their cities levelled … it’s only way to be sure that it will be ended at least for a generation.
PRCS says
“For starters, no entity known as “Palestine” exists. Palestine isn’t a state, despite being declared one”
Which needs to be made very clear to Western politicians and so-called politicians.
dumbledoresarmy says
Jihad bloody jihad. And between the lines in the (Aussie) ABC reports I could sense that some of the reporters, at least, are GLOATING over this vicious surprise attack. They are PLEASED and EXCITED by the fact that the Israelis were taken by surprise, and that hundreds of Jews were murdered and others – women, kids – taken hostage, no doubt to be used as human shields. And who will be mistreated; very likely raped and tormented.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Yeah, I heard that there was a pro-Hamas demonstration near the Sydney Opera House. Pretty disgraceful
Westman says
“..some of the reporters, at least, are GLOATING over this vicious surprise attack.”
Yes, there are many immature, freudenschade people in influential positions.

Like the beheading of babies that is now taking place. |This time the palestinians have crossed the line. God will be coming soon to take his revenge on the palestinians just like he did to the cananites. Beheading babies is the lowest human beings can reach. The palestinians are a curse on humanity.
Westman says
Raped women + Decapitated babies ≠ ceasefire
Islam ≠ peace
Islam = Misanthropy
“He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.” Genesis 16:12
People who claim to believe their Bible and yet insist the world of Islam can be warm and fuzzy for non-Muslims, should hug a Hamas terrorist without delay to calm their troubled breast.
Hoi Polloi says
Exactly. No Christian church has any business inserting itself into this to demand that we ignore what islam actually is.
Siddi Nasrani says
Remember good folks this Islamic adage, ” Kindness is Weakness” So, to Hell with The United Church, & wipe these Barbaric morons from the face of the Civilised world.
Westman says
This may quickly evolve to war with Iran and the opportunity to permanently end its nuclear ambitions.
The “demonstrations” in major EU cities has given the liberals a vision of Islam’s ability to relish genocide and its gleeful excitement over torture, rape, and mutilation of Jews. Some stupid ones, like the UCC, who cannot replace delusion with reality, will linger on with nonsense until their lives are in jepardy.
The “unbelievers” have seen true Islam of the sort carried out by Muhammad and his companions. Is that from God or from some bloodthirsty, degenerate mind?

I’d be pretty embarrassed had I been Christian

It’s the reason pews are emptying. Far too much that is in no sense Christian.

Israel needs to make the conditions such that the very though of the consequences of killing Jews will fill Muslims with horror. A ceasefire is surrender and capitulation at this stage
abu taleb says
So, Hamas is allowed to keep the their prisoners as sex slaves as UCC did not mention the liberation of the people kidnaped by Hamas. UCC is really a false church.
