"There is only one place in the Middle East where life is safe and there is only one place where the Christian community grows and flourishes [...] That place is the State of Israel. In other countries in the Middle East, Christians must either be very careful or leave the country, but not in Israel. You are our brothers and sisters, and we defend Christian rights just like we defend the rights of all religions."
