On Christmas day nearly every major news site reported the same story: Christmas in Bethlehem returns after two years of war. While naming Israel as the boogeyman, these reports brushed Islamist extremist violence against Christians under the rug despite reports of at least two attacks in the days before Christmas.
Dr. Tricia Miller, Director of CAMERA’s Partnership of Christians and Jews, breaks it down:
From Jesus and the Gospels to major theologians, Christian tradition has long affirmed the restoration of Israel and the Jewish homeland.
Is Israel oppressing Christians? Are American Christians responsible for suffering in Gaza? That’s what Munther Isaac would have you believe. Tucker Carlson provided him a platform to spread his lies unchallenged.
Christian Zionists support Jewish indigenous self-determination. This support isn’t complicated, and it’s not new, either. Zionism is as old as Christianity itself, tracing its roots right back to Jesus and the early Church. If Christian Zionists are the people whom Tucker Carlson “dislikes more than anybody,” then he’s got a major problem with Christianity, period.
The difference between chaos and civilization is not wealth or culture, but whether disputes are resolved by civil discourse and law rather than by force.
The murder of Charlie Kirk is a tragedy and a warning. His commitment to debate, even with those who disagreed most, reminds us of the values democracy must protect.
The false narrative invading Christendom and all society during the Christmas season depicts Jesus as a Palestinian. This dangerous doctrine is the latest attempt by anti-Israel activists to divorce Jesus from his Jewishness and undermine Christian support for Israel.
Under the guise of advocating for Palestinian Christians, Tucker Carlson launched a two-pronged assault on American Christian support for the Jewish State. To provide legitimacy for his campaign, he enlisted the help of Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac, a notorious propagandist for the Palestinian anti-Israel narrative.
The ecumenical threat to life and limb posed by large crowds unprotected by adequate safety precautions doesn't stand a chance against the enduring false narrative of Israel's persecution of Christians.
