Anyone even remotely familiar with the lib-infested CoE won’t be surprised by this.
(Israel National News) — A resolution calling for “non violent actions to end the occupation” of Israel will be discussed by the Church of England’s General Synod at its meeting next month.
The motion is being proposed by John Dinnen, a Synod member who already backed an attempt to force the Church to divest from companies said to be “profiting from Israel’s occupation”.
The Anglican Friends of Israel, a small but brave group of Christian members who oppose the attacks against Israel, declared that an eventual approval by the Church’s synod would be like “adopting the ‘Nakba’ agenda”.
Anglicanism is not just another Christian denomination. It’s the official UK Church headed by the Queen. Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, is the spiritual head of 77 million Christians worldwide.
If the Anglicans of the XIX Century played a pivotal role in the process that led to the State of Israel’s establishment, in the last decade the Christian denomination has been the source of a virulent hatred and inflammatory blood libels against the Jews.
In 2006 the UK Church reviewed its investments in companies with ties to Israel’s presence in the ‘territories’. Four years later, the Church reviewed its investment in the company Veolia involved in the Jerusalem’s light railway amid concern that the tramline “will help to cement Israel’s hold on occupied east Jerusalem”.
Meanwhile, many UK bishops and clerics are saying openly that the Jewish State should never have been founded at all. And the most lethal calumny that the Jews were “the murderers of God” still had a deep resonance in the Anglican world.
