Delegate Sam Rasoul has family roots in the West Bank and shares his view that Israel is breaking international law and conducting a genocide in Gaza. He insists that the conflict is not one of religion and describes the long history of Christians, Jews, and Muslims living peacefully together until post World War II when Israel was formed and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were run off their land. He points to representations of Jews and Christians in current U.S. protests of Israel's war offensive that has resulted in the death of tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza.
Mr. Rasoul is one of two Muslims in Virginia Legislature.
This interview is 3rd in ongoing discussion of the Israel-Gaza war on This Conversation.
Others include Rev. Boyd Evans, Priest of St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Abingdon, Virginia, who has spent time in the West Bank and Gaza.
