The 10th anniversary of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast has brought renewed focus to concerns about growing antisemitism worldwide, according to the organization’s global director Albert Veksler.
In discussing the current climate, Veksler expressed deep concern that hatred toward Jewish people has reached alarming levels of acceptance in society. He warned that many people now view violence against Jews as something that can be justified or understood.
During his remarks, Veksler shifted between discussing international concerns, including Iran and hopes for freedom among its citizens, while emphasizing the urgent need for moral courage from Christian communities in supporting Jewish people facing increased threats.
According to Veksler, who oversees the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast organization, the intersection of faith and political realities has become impossible to separate in today’s world. He stressed that spiritual and political concerns now exist in the same space, requiring immediate attention and action.
