JERUSALEM, Israel – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hailed Pope Francis Sunday, May 25, for his “determined stance” against anti-Semitism, a day after a shooting attack in Belgium killed three people, two of them Israelis.
“We appreciate the pope’s determined stance against anti-Semitism, especially in light of the growing hatred of Jews that we are witness to in these days,” Netanyahu said at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting.
His remarks, made as the pope arrived in Bethlehem on the second leg of a three-day Holy Land pilgrimage, came a day after the attack on the Jewish Museum in central Brussels that also critically wounded one person.
It was the first fatal attack on a Belgian Jewish centre since the early 1980s in a country that is home to 40,000 Jews, roughly half of whom live in the capital. – Rappler.com
