Catholic-Jewish Panel Focuses on Mideast

At a recent Saint Joseph's University event -- one which was supposed to examine Israel's 60th anniversary from the perspective of Catholic-Jewish relations ...
The Jewish voice at the program, Rabbi Eugene Korn -- who directs the Center for Christian-Jewish Understanding at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Conn. -- argued that the paramount question facing the Middle East is whether or not the majority of Muslims will be able to adapt to non-Muslims living in the region as equals.
Korn, who previously directed interreligious affairs for the Anti-Defamation League, said that such a development would obviously be important for Jews and the State of Israel, but also for Christians of all denominations, who in recent years have faced increased persecution in places like Egypt, Iraq and the Palestinian territories.
