Jesus in the Old Testament | October 2024 | Issue 8

FROM THE DESK OF JOHN

This month I am bringing you a TV series entitled “A Christian Response to the Israeli War.” This is becoming a controversial issue in the United States and in other countries. Although our guest, Dr. Jeff Myers, wrote his book based on research in the United States, his conclusions also reflect the current situation in Canada.

Dr. Myers visited Israel 103 days after October 7 when terrorists slaughtered 1200 Israelis and took nearly 250 hostages of 20 nationalities and 5 different religions. Among them were several elderly people and a small baby. Eight Canadians and 33 US citizens were also killed by the terrorists.

While he was in Israel, Dr. Myers met with journalists, educators, military officials, an intelligence officer, survivors, and hostage families. He met with Jews and Arabs, with people on the left and on the right, and with peace activists and soldiers. He said, “What I learned is not at all what I expected.”

I am sure that you’ve seen coverage on all the major news outlets about the protests and demonstrations taking place at numerous American and Canadian college and university campuses, where large numbers of students are protesting Israel’s war against Hamas. They believe it is unjust and inhumane that the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) has killed so many Palestinians versus the number of Israelis that have been killed.

In his book, Dr. Myers points out that while most Americans have consistently expressed support for Israel, polls reveal a surprising split between younger and older Americans.
