Story number 1 for 19 Oct 2000

The Middle East tops the news today, where there’s been a report of an Islamic coalition calling for continued uprising against Israel. That, despite an agreement between the Israelis and Palestinians aimed at ending three weeks of violence. Jews for Jesus’ David Brickner gives his take on the situation. “It remains to be seen whether or not the agreement that was reached at Sharm el-Sheikh will hold. But, I think that this ancient blood feud is continuing and all of the efforts of political and humanitarian leaders will continue to fall short.” Brickner says there’s more to the peace process. “We have staff in Israel who are looking to share the Gospel. There are believers in Jesus both Israeli and Palestinian who are looking to come together to pray together and to demonstrate the love of Christ in the midst of this conflict.”
