As the Mideast cauldron boils, a top church leader is cautioning that Christians always pay the highest price — scapegoats whenever trouble occurs in the area. But Maronite Patriarch Bechara Peter also claims that outside countries — especially in the West — are deliberately fomenting conflicts in the region with one goal in mind — destroying the Arab World.

To gain further insight into the patriarch’s observations, our Bill Delano went to the headquarters of Catholic Near East Welfare Association, a direct Papal lifeline to the churches in the Middle East. Bill spoke with the association’s external affairs officer, Father Elias Mallon, who is also the chairman of Catholic-Muslim Dialogue for the Archdiocese of New York. Bill asked Father Mallon about what the Maronite leader said and about conditions on the ground right now.
