Our hearts aike for our Christian Brothers and sisters in palestine, whose numbers include anglicans, but are rapidly declining. People all faiths in south africa have both a deep understanding. Of what it is to live under oppression as well as experience of how to confront and overcome and just rule. In its resolution, the church goes lengths to underscore that solidarity visits must be carried out to palestine, and particular efforts must be made to engage with the church in alkhuds and ordinary Palestinian Christians to the true extent of their suffering under israeli occupation. It acknowledges that until now when christians do v kuds they often overlook the palestinian reality, and in some instances are even taken on all expenses paid propaganda trips by the zionist regime.
