It’s ironic that these Christian fools will bend over backwards on behalf of a foreign regime that, if they were to migrate there, would take away some of their most fundamental rights and freedoms (here).

Judeo-Christianity = shit.

By Daphna Berman

American evangelical Christian leaders in a visit to Jerusalem this week delivered a letter of repentance to Knesset members for crimes committed against Jews in the name of Christianity. Addressed to “the people of Israel,” the letter asks for forgiveness, “on behalf of millions of Christians who love Israel and pray for her” for “crimes committed against the Jewish people throughout history in the name of ‘Christianity.’ We have sinned against God and against you.”

The letter, which thanks the Jewish people for bringing the “Holy Scriptures of the Law,” also reads, “please know that there will always be a strong number of Christians who love Israel and will stand with her and ’seek the peace of Jerusalem.’”

The letter is the initiative of the Texas-based Covenant Alliances, which brought to Israel this week a delegation of more than 200 Christian Zionist leaders from the U.S., Canada, England and Africa.

The full text, which is available on www.letterofrepentance.com, is also signed by local Christian organizations, including the International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem and Bridges for Peace.

Members of Knesset Benny Elon (National Union-NRP), Elhanan Glazer (Pensioners Party) and David Rotem (Yisrael Beiteinu) accepted the letter at a ceremony on Wednesday. The event was hosted by the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus, a multi-partisan group established in 2004 to improve communication between Israeli members of Knesset and international Christian leaders.
