Christian Zionism Controversy: The Israeli Christian Targeted by the Patriarchs Responds

In this exclusive interview with Dr. André Villeneuve (Catholics for Israel), the Israeli Christian leader at the center of the recent controversy with the Jerusalem Patriarchs responds publicly for the first time. Ihab Shlayan—Lieutenant Colonel (Res.) in the IDF, founder of The Israeli Christian Voice, and one of the most prominent advocates for Christian‑Aramean identity in Israel—speaks about the declaration issued by the “patriarchs and heads of churches in Jerusalem” condemning what they called “damaging ideologies such as Christian Zionism.” Shlayan explains why the statement was released, who it was targeting, and why his work among Israeli Christians has drawn criticism from some church leaders. He also discusses Christian Zionism, Aramean identity, Christian life in Israel and the Palestinian territories, and the broader situation of Christians in the Middle East.
