Hanna: Christians United for Israel “suspicious non-Christian group”

Monday 5-August-2019

Father Atallah Hanna has warned against the so-called “Christians United for Israel” in America calling it an organization that “plays a suspicious political role in opposing justice and supporting the Israeli occupation its policies and practices against the Palestinian people.”

Hanna Archbishop of the Palestinian Orthodox Church in Occupied Jerusalem affirmed that this American organization receives support from the current US administration and some groups that falsely claim to belong to Christianity.

The Archbishop said that “this group has nothing at all to do with Christian values and its members are Zionists who interpret the holy Bible as they wish.”

“The organization calls itself ‘Christians United for Israel’ and we in turn say to them that the Christians are united in defending Palestine and Jerusalem advocating causes of justice supporting the oppressed people and rejecting all manifestations and forms of racism” he added.
