‘The global resurgence of antisemitism’ (Christian Post, 12/4) As a boomer who grew up in the long shadow of WWII and had parents who fought the evil of the Third Reich and Imperial Japan, we thought that bad illustration would put an end to mankind’s evil to one another and the millennia of persecution of Jews. Imperial Japan’s evil in Asia, most notably China did not take 2^nd place to what happened in Europe. Alas, It isn’t so. Walking the dirt paths of West Africa in what turned out to be the middle of the brutal Liberian Civil war showed us personally that humanity was still in sin. The indiscriminate killing, rape, destruction of critical infrastructure ratified my somewhat forgotten theology that fallen human beings are fallen and brutal. The evil that happened on Oct 7^th and Hamas’ desire to destroy the Jews and the Jewish homeland is evil.  Anyone who supports Hamas and therefore what they did, the rape, the killing, the brutality, is supporting evil. Calling for the genocide of Jews, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is evil. The term is not just about the Israeli state, but also the destruction of the Jewish people. We can have discussions about the plight of the “Palestinian” people (descendants of Arab nomads who unfortunately no one wanted in their country) but as human beings we need to do better. Unfortunately, that will not happen until either people come to Jesus, (we are called to evangelize the world) or Jesus comes to establish His kingdom. Maranatha
