- "2005 marks the Anglican Peace and Justice Network's 20th anniversary and its meeting in Jerusalem in September 2004 brings it full circle to its first meeting which also took place in the City of Peace in 1985. Invited by the Right Reverend Riah Hanna Abu El-Assal, APJN convened 23 Provinces of the Anglican Communion under the leadership of Dr. Jenny Te Paa of Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia ... (p. 7)". "APJN was both nurtured and shaken during its visit, the former by the warmth of the people of the diocese (virtually all of them Palestinian), and the latter by the conditions of Occupation under which most Palestinians live (p. 7)". "We recognize that the Israeli people have endured attacks and suicide bombings causing great suffering, loss and agony, and that the fear of further suicide bombings continues. We also recognize and lament the historical context of the experience of persecution and genocide by the Jewish people. However, the extent to which the Israeli government has gone in annexing Palestinian land and pushing the Palestinians into cantons and denying this people both dignity and self-determination is unjustifiable. If Israel continues with its actions in the name of security (as is often argued) then their hope for life without fear is diminished as the Palestinian people will continue in their struggle for nationhood (p. 9)".

Anglican Primate deplores armed intrusion into Jerusalem cathedral

- TORONTO, Nov. 12 [2004]
- Archbishop Andrew Hutchison, Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada, has written to Canadian Foreign Minister Pierre Pettigrew asking the government to express concern to the government of Israel over an armed intrusion into St. George's Anglican Cathedral in Jerusalem.
- On Thursday, Anglican Bishop Riah Abu El-Assal of Jerusalem reported that about 30 armed Israeli officers entered the cathedral to arrest Mordecai [sic Mordechai] Vanunu. (Mr. Vanunu, a former nuclear technician, was released from jail last April after serving 18 years for revealing details of Israel's plans to develop nuclear weapons.)
- Archbishop Hutchison also wrote a letter to Bishop Riah, saying he deplored "the seemingly excessive force that was used at the cathedral".
- The text of the Canadian Primate's two letters follows:
- Letter to Foreign Minister Pierre Pettigrew
- Earlier this week an incident happened in Jerusalem, which has greatly disturbed me and members of the Anglican Church of Canada. Israeli special police entered in force the grounds of St. George's Anglican Cathedral to apprehend Mordecao Vanunu. Bishop Riah H. Abu El-Assal has reported on the traumatic effect this action had on the tourists, pilgrims and others who were present.
- At a time when the issue of sanctuary is in the headlines in Canada, this incident brings to our attention once more the inappropriateness of breaching this longstanding tradition and right. I ask that you convey to the government of Israel our concern and that of the Canadian people over this unfortunate incident.
- I have assured Bishop Riah of the church's support and prayers as his people, mainly Palestinian Anglicans, move through a period of shock as the nation mourns the death of President Yasser Arafat. I have also expressed my hope that new ways may now be found to enable the people of Israel and Palestine to live in peace, and to flourish.
- Letter to Bishop Riah H. Abu El-Assal
- I was saddened and alarmed by the news in your letter to me and other Primates about the incident at St. George's Cathedral earlier this week. From your report the actions of the Israeli special police force seem quite inappropriate and offensive. There has been a very longstanding tradition of respecting the holy places, not just in Jerusalem but around the world, and the breaching of the right of sanctuary is not acceptable. I deplore the seemingly excessive force that was used at the cathedral close as the police took Mordecai Vanunu into custody, shocking and traumatizing those tourist, pilgrims and others who were present.
- I am writing to the Canadian foreign minister, the Honourable Pierre Pettigrew urging him to express these concerns to the government of Israel.
- Please be assured of our continuing prayers for you and for your church as you recover from this incident, and as you live through this time of mourning for President Yasser Arafat. My prayer is that new ways may be found to enable the people of Israel and Palestine to live in peace, and to flourish.

- "The Archbishop of Canterbury made a visit to the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem from 25-30 January [2004]. His visit included time in Jordan as well as visits to many institutions, congregations and ecumenical leaders in and about Jerusalem and throughout Israel/Palestine." The Archbishop met with the President of Israel, Moshe Katsav, the Chief Rabbinate and Nathan Sharansky, Minister for Jerusalem, "who hosted a small group for discussion of the efforts for Peace and Reconciliation in the Holy Land. Later in the day the Archbishop met with the Executive Group of the Alexandria Process, an initiative started by Lord Carey with Church Leaders from throughout the area which is staffed by the Rev. Canon Andrew White of Coventry Cathedral". Includes a brief history of the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem of which Bishop Riah is the 13th Anglican bishop and the third Palestinian bishop. The diocese has more than 7,000 members, 29 parishes, and 34 institutions spread across the different countries it covers. "It employs over 1500 people and has several hundred students in its various schools as well as important medical and rehabilitation care units throughout the areas".
