A Prayer for Forgiveness, Justice, and Peace





"A Palestinian girl cries during the funeral of a relative that was killed in an Israeli air strike in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza Strip, Sunday, Jan. 4, 2009. Israeli ground troops and tanks cut swaths through the Gaza Strip early Sunday, cutting the coastal territory into two and surrounding its biggest city as the new phase of a devastating offensive against Hamas gained momentum.

While we are sitting on our fat butts lamenting our diminishing 401(k) money, our tax dollars are paying for the killing of women and children in Gaza. Congratulations, America, we are paying for the murder and oppression of people who have done nothing to us, and we will suffer the consequences of our injustice. We have enemies in the Middle East because we have earned them.

May God heal the suffering we have caused, may He forgive our sins, and may His justice be established in our time.
