#Israeli hate crimes against #Christians soar in occupied East Jerusalem

The Jewish supremacist rhetoric of the far-right government has reportedly emboldened extremist settler attacks against Palestinian Christians thecradle.co/article-view/2…
#Israeli extremists have increased their attacks on #Palestinian #Christians and Christian institutions in occupied East Jerusalem since the beginning of the year, with police doing little to stop violent incidents, according to Israeli daily Haaretz.
thecradle.co/article-view/2…
Church leaders say the spike in violence can be attributed to the Jewish supremacist rhetoric of the current far-right government, whose ministers have called for Palestinian villages to be “wiped out” and even denied the existence of a Palestinian people.

On top of this, locals who spoke with Haaretz say the police “do not treat the situation seriously enough and refuse to identify the growing list of violent incidents as a trend.”

According to John Munayer, director of international engagement at Jerusalem’s Rossing Center for Education and Dialogue, Armenian churches are the target of most attacks due to their proximity to the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem.

Palestinian Christians are subject to continuous discrimination and violence by Israeli forces and extremist settlers.

Violence against Palestinian Muslims has also seen a spike in recent years in occupied East Jerusalem, mainly by extremist settler raids on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound under the protection of Israeli troops.
