Anti-Israel Event at St Marks Episcopal Church in Seattle

Hat tip Mike Report


In the below post from the Mike Report, a Seattle-based blog, Randy Kessler writes a guest column about his visit to an anti-Israel event at St Marks Episcopal Church in Seattle. The article is "part 2", but in the first line, you can link to part 1.

Here is a previous cross-posting I did from the Mike Report regarding this church.

This one event was no isolated one. This church has aligned itself with the usual crowd of anti-Israel activists, some of whom have visited UC Irvine where I teach (Mike Peled, Cindy Corrie). The willingness of certain Christian churches to align themselves with the Palestinian cause is troubling. They close their eyes to terrorism and facilitate more anti-semitism. Is it due to Christian naivete, or 1960s liberalism (many of these people come from that generation), or just plain old anti-semitism?

Anglicans have always looked down their noses at Jews, or worse. Its the Established Church. What do you expect?
