On Oct 7, Christians must remember and stand with Israel

I have spent years helping American leaders understand the realities of the Middle East. I have worked with policymakers, pastors, diplomats and families. On this anniversary of the brutal Oct. 7 massacre, we must all remember that day without moral confusion or political convenience.

On Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas, other armed groups and many Gaza civilians crossed into Israel and carried out a coordinated assault on innocent people living their lives. Nearly 1,200 people were killed and 252 were abducted.
