UNIBAM has a far less delicate response to the statement from the churches. It says, quote, "The idea that the religious sector is more concerned with its ability to travel to the Holy Land follows a long history of selectively moralizing and callousness."
The release states, quote, "The labeling of the Israeli bombing as a"War", by Bishop Benguche, but ignoring the 4,008 children killed, shows how much pious old ill-informed men remain entitled and out of touch with the horrors of the world. No Bishop, it's a slaughter against women and children, it's not a war....What happened to the Right to Life? Offering thoughts and prayers to dead people does not make them less dead." End quote.
