UPF Statement: The Crisis in the Holy Land
The Crisis in the Holy Land: A Call for Dialogue, Prayer and an End to the Violence
As we observe the recent eruption of conflict and violence in the Holy Land, our hearts are deeply saddened. The Universal Peace Federation, through its Middle East Peace Initiative, inaugurated in 2003, has worked continuously to promote dialogue and cooperation among stakeholders in the Holy Land, especially among religious leaders of the Abrahamic faiths. Violence and the loss of life will yield no lasting solution.
