Jesus Statue Vandalism By IDF Soldier, Diplomatic Firestorm Between Poland, Israel
A diplomatic firestorm is erupting between Warsaw and Jerusalem. It has been sparked by a viral image of a sledgehammer and a sacred statue. It began on April 20 when an Israeli soldier was photographed smashing a statue of Jesus Christ in southern Lebanon. The fallout has now spiraled into a bitter public feud between top diplomats. Poland’s Foreign Minister, Radosław Sikorski, took to social media to demand more than just an apology. Israel’s Foreign Minister, Gideon Sa’ar, fired back immediately.
