Attacking Christians


I have always believed in, and respected the rights of every human being, as I expect my rights to be respected. Though I treat all basic human rights equally, I am partial to the rights to life, freedom, dignity of person, and freedom of thought, conscience, religion, opinion, and expression. I believe in the fundamental principle that my rights should not impinge on another’s and vice versa.

The long-standing feud between Israel and Palestine has been raising feathers in some Nigerian quarters. This fight has been going on for years and years on end: Israel takes Palestinian lands, Palestine attacks Israel, Israel carries out reprisal attacks, vice versa…and the circle of violence continues! Anyone who has been following the news knows that these two people are bitter enemies, something that probably dates back to their shared history and possibly, ancestry. So, it was no surprise that when three Israeli teenagers were killed by Palestinian forces, Israel sprang into action and retaliated (and are still retaliating).
