Major Interfaith Conference Urges Anti-Terrorism Pact


Religious leaders at a Saudi-organized interfaith conference called for an international pact to combat terrorism. Representatives – including Islamic, Christian and Jewish leaders – asked the U.N. General Assembly to call a special session to help foster dialogue between “followers of religions, civilizations and cultures” and prevent “a clash of civilizations,” according to Agence France-Presse. “Terrorism is a universal phenomenon that requires unified international efforts to combat it in a serious, responsible and just way,” the three-day World Conference on Dialogue said in a final statement. “This demands an international agreement on defining terrorism, addressing its root causes and achieving justice and stability in the world.” Source: The Christian Post
