IDF soldiers from Division 91 sparked international backlash after filming themselves staging a mock Christian wedding ceremony inside a Maronite church in the Lebanese village of Deir Mimas. The footage, which the soldiers shared on social media, shows them performing a mock wedding between two soldiers, who later wrestle on the church floor while others laugh.

“What if this happened in a synagogue? They’d be screaming ‘antisemitism,’” said Wadie Abu Nassar, coordinator of the Holy Land Christian Forum.

The Vatican has reportedly condemned the incident as “outrageous” and sought verification of the video’s authenticity.

    What if this happened in a synagogue?

    The same reaction, I would laugh. Because I dislike (almost) all religions and churches the same.
