Last updated on: October 30, 2018 at 9:46 am By Gerald McDermott

About ten Palestinian and Anglo-American speakers (Stephen Sizer and Gary Burge are in the picture on the left and middle) decried the theology of Christian Zionism and the politics of Israel. Joel Willitts and I were invited to offer counter-voices.

Since January 2018 eight thousand Christians—most of them children, women and the elderly (according to the Egyptian scholar Raymond Ibrahim)—have... Read more
