Western "Peacemakers" Lend Aid and Comfort to Those Who Try to Murder Jews
(Israel Hayom) Dexter Van Zile - In their efforts to promote peace in the Holy Land, some Christian peacemaking organizations end up lending aid and comfort to folks who have murdered (or have tried to murder) Jews. The worst offenders are associated with the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI). These activists, who have been recruited by the World Council of Churches, come to the Holy Land and annoy Israeli soldiers as they protect Jews. They wear brown vests with the logo of a cross and a dove on the back and "World Council of Churches" stenciled across the top to give their wearers an air of authority. In November 2016, EAPPI volunteers visited the homes of two Palestinians who were killed while attempting to murder Roy Harel and his family in their home in Eli. In a blog post, they described their efforts to console the families of the two Palestinians, describing the would-be killers as good boys who were doing well in school. The last thing the Holy Land needs is a bunch of well-meaning but ignorant outsiders.
