Challenging the “Christian Zionism / Political Complex”
Christians United For Israel, during their 14th annual summit on July 7-8, 2019, were challenged by the campaign, “Rise Against Racism: Counter CUFI.” The campaign was sponsored by Friends of Sabeel North America (FOSNA) and joined by Jewish Voice For Peace, American Muslims for Palestine, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights. It was endorsed by more than 30 organizations. We Hold These Truths challenged CUFI at its second annual summit in 2007 and endorsed FOSNA‘s current campaign. CUFI‘s leader, John Hagee, boasts of being a Christian Zionist and exposed his political version of Christianity at the CUFI summit by inviting prominent Christian Zionist politicians that included VP Mike Pence, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor John Bolton. In this on the ground report by Mark Bebawi on Arab Voices Radio, Tarek Abuata, executive director of FOSNA and other campaign members are interviewed along with comments by two CUFI attendees. This is a remarkable 50-minute program that exposes the “Christian Zionist/Political Complex.” – Editor: TEC
