Yes the Catholic Church must back up its apology to Canada's Indigenous people with concrete action and Pope Francis has made that clear. However, when it comes to Apartheid Israel as named by numerous human rights organizations like Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and Israel's own B'Tselem Mr. Farber is strangely silent. What say ye to the to the blatant destruction of Palestinian villages and the massacres of their inhabitants, ethnic cleansing, destruction of Palestinian homes, the bombing of undefended civilian populations, the uprooting of olive orchards, the unrestricted building of settlements on stolen Palestinian land, the gassing and shooting of nonviolent protestors or stone throwing children subjected from birth to the humiliation of their parents at checkpoints that restrict access to education and medical treatment.
