For 15 months, I was displaced from my home in northern Gaza. For 15 long months that felt like 15 years, I felt like a stranger in my own homeland. Not knowing when the exile would end, I lived with an unbearable sense of loss, with memories of a home frozen in time that I could see in my mind but could not go back to.

Don Trump, current temporary occupant of the elective office of President of the United States, has issued an Executive Order to ferret out “antichristianity” from the federal government. Now cynics might perceive an odd karmic resonance from the “communist witch hunts” of Senator Joe McCarthy though the grotesque, twisted soul of Roy Cohn to his acolyte Don Trump, but nothing could be further from the truth. Be assured: there is no “antichrist” in this “antichristianity” purge. The choice of words is just a coincidence.
