Latin Patriachate of Jerusalem, Michel Sabbah on Palestinian Refugee Rights
"In our Holy Land, peace is still a difficult process. In these
recent days it has extended to include all parties concerned. Peace
will be the fruit of justice. In our context, it should restore to
the refugees their dignity and their rights, to the political
prisoners their liberty, and to Jerusalem it should guarantee its
sacred character. Peace with the Palestinian people remains at the
heart of the problem and the essential condition for peace in the
whole region." (Christmas Message, 1999)
