Regardless of whether or not or to what degree #Israel has evicted and otherwise ethnically cleansed Palestine, I condemn #Hamas for giving into hatred and bloodlust.

Regardless of the pain inflicted by Hamas, I condemn retalitory war crimes conducted by Israelis, if and when they occur.

To those shocked and terrified by war propaganda, I condemn the calls for genocide. The loss of all composure.

And, most importantly, to the extent that I suspect the ruling class to exploiting old tribal frictions in order to reach for greater geopolitical ends... Christ's judgment awaits.

Sin is wrong in the absolute sense. God sits above nations and all the stories we tell ourselves.
