Another group dismayed with the Presbyterian Church elite is the America-Israel Friendship League (AIFL), which says it “is dedicated to strengthening the ties between the United States and Israel through its people-to-people programs.”
Fourteen of its members are visiting Israel and have visited the SodaStream factory in the Judean Desert, between Jerusalem and Jericho, to see for itself the operation that has become known for its equal treatment of Palestinian Authority workers as much as it is known for its fizzy drinks advertised by Scarlett Johansson.
They said that their visit reinforced their belief that the plant helps the Arabs as well as Arab and Jewish relations.

Presbyterianism is innately discriminatory, since they won't let Episcopalians, Lutherans, Baptists, Anabaptists, Methodists, Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, Moonies, Branch Davidian, let alone Orthodox Rabbis lead their congregations. They only allow "professing" "christian" "presbyterians" with the correct theology to do that.
I wonder if the esteemed church leaders have formed a BDS movement against all of the international companies who are financially benefiting from the internecine warfare in Syria, Egypt and Iraq. Or perhaps they hold by the Protocols of the Elders that the mayhem is part of a Jewish plot for world domination. Of course, that wouldn't stray too far from the propaganda of some Islamic authorities.
to heck with them just bought a soda stream machine and love it. Did you know presbyterian always build their churches on a hill, have no idea why they do this. probably a scottish fetish.
lol well I belong to the canadian reformed church and I doubt if they would let a Jehovah witness, a mormon, seventh day adventist preach in our church either, most of them want to bring the sheep into their own church, and it is our pastors duty to make sure that the sheep are not fed lies and heresies.
Exactly my point, Sientje. How dare they make accusations about Israeli discrimination, when it is a part of everyday business in religion, and every political entity of which I am aware.
I note that none of the clergy who repented were named or quoted. Hasbara will not help Israel
These are the same reptilian pod people who praised the Soviets and east bloc persecutors while not lifting their little finger to help the poor suffering jews and christians.
