149 Presbyterians and Israel
"The Presbyterian Church (USA) has committed a grievous sin. The General Assembly of that church has voted to divest from only one country in the world. No, it was not China, which has occupied Tibet for half a century and continues to deny basic human rights to its own citizens. No, it was not Iran, which threatens nuclear holocaust, executes dissenters and denies religious freedom to Christians and Jews. No, it was not North Korea, Libya, Russia, Sudan, Cuba or Belarus. It was -- you guessed it -- Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East and America's most reliable ally in a troubled part of the world. " Alan DershowitzAny Presbyterians out there who can comment? OK. How about Lutherans? Methodists? Congregationalists? How many think Israel is a bigger threat than North Korea? Violates more human rights than China. Silence.
