Joy-Ann Reid on Instagram: "More war crimes and inhumanity, this time targeting Christians — including a priest — in #lebanon. And no one seems capable of holding #israel to account, for anything. #makeitmakesense . Repost from @mohamed.reports • Father Pierre al-Rahi was a Maronite Catholic priest in Qlayaa, a Christian village in southern Lebanon. Not a Hezbollah stronghold. A village of 8,000 people that declared neutrality in the war. Israel ordered them to “evacuate”. The priests refused. The day before he was killed, Father Pierre told media on the steps of his church: “We are forced to stay despite the danger, when we defend our land, and we do so peacefully. None of us carries weapons. All of us carry peace and goodness and love.” Yesterday an Israeli tank hit a house in the village. The first shell wounded the owner and his wife. Father Pierre ran to help. The tank fired a second time wounding Father Pierre. He died from his injuries. He is the first Christian religious figure killed in this war. Israel said it struck a “Hezbollah cell”. Residents say they asked Hezbollah not to enter and there is no evidence of Hezbollah activity. Pope Leo expressed his deep sorrow. Separately, UNICEF reported that 83 children have been killed in Lebanon in the past week alone by Israel. Ten children per day. 254 wounded. In total, nearly 500 people killed by Israel in Lebanon and over a thousand injured since Israeli strikes restarted on March 2. 700,000 displaced, 200,000 of them children. Father Pierre said the only weapons they carry are peace and love. He was saying it on the steps of his church. A day later he was dead. #Lebanon #Israel UNICEF MiddleEast MENA"
