On Thursday, the One With Israel organization hosted a Standing With Israel event at Living Hope Houston Church.
"Never in my life has it been more clear that we need to stand by our principles and values of freedom and human dignity. We’ve seen horrific images - children burned, babies tied together and massacred," said Pastor Becky Keenan.Consul General of Israel to Southwest U.S.
"The numbers are unconceivable beyond comprehension and they are rising by the hour. We’re talking now about 1,300+ people that were slaughtered, mostly civilians; over 5000 injured and between 100 to 200 people that were abducted into the Gaza Strip and being held hostages, including people from foreign nationalities, Americans amongst them," said Link-Raviv. "Terrorism is not only done with guns and artillery. Terrorism is also done by fear.
"Some people that feel uncomfortable or feel the need to pick sides and make it a political thing, so just to clarify, this is not a political issue. This is not about territorial disputes, not at all. This is about a terrorist organization whose sole purpose is to destroy the state of Israel," Link-Raviv.In a statement, Houston Police say they’re working with local state and federal partners to keep citizens safe.
