Evangelicals Raise $8.5 Million for Israel
[Jerusalem Post] Saul Elbein - On Sunday night, Pastor John Hagee, a founding member of Christians United for Israel, hosted 6,000 people at his 26th annual "Night to Honor Israel" at the Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas. Hagee told the gathering: "America must never pressure Israel to give up land. It must never pressure her to divide Jerusalem. Turning Jerusalem over to the Palestinians is tantamount to giving it to the Taliban." John Hagee Ministries gave more than $8.5 million, most of which came from private donations, to Israeli causes from the Israel National Autism Foundation to the city of Ariel's Development Fund. Over $6m. went to aliya organizations such as Nefesh B'Nefesh and Exodus II.
