When last we visited The Israel/Palestine Mission Network of the Presbyterian Church (USA) they were promoting Temple Mount conspiracy theories and suggesting Hizballah's Al Manar as a legitimate news source: Presbyterian Church (USA) 'Peacemakers' Promote Anti-Semitic Terrorist 'News' and Conspiracy Theory. Well you're not going to believe what they're posting now: Video of the Week: I Am Israel. Here's how they introduce it:

The following video entitled I Am Israel is a powerful and tragically beautiful presentation of the triumphs of Israel as it emerged to become a powerful Middle Eastern state in the modern world of today; an emergence of a people from the tragedy of World War II. But it is also a powerful presentation of the tragedy of the Palestinian people on whose land powerful Israel now resides. It reminds us of the tragedy of two people, one living in Europe before the founding of Israel and the other in Palestine. When will the tragedy of these two people end and they become reconciled to each other and to their respective histories? Could it be when we of the West act on behalf of the well being of both peoples?

I figured this would be another one of those ignorant, if somewhat sappy and historically illiterate things that make you wince but at least have a veneer of humanitarianism slathered on the top -- you know, the kind of stuff marketed to well-meaning but naive consumers, produced by the real Jew-haters for their marks in the Western leftist churches. Well this is much worse. It's hard to make the case that this thing, which not only distorts history but goes off into "the Jews control America and the media"-land is anything but anti-Semitism. How they think this crap is useful for furthering anything called "peace" or "reconciliation" is absolutely beyond me. This shows how far out church leftists in the PC(USA) have gone -- what is really in their hearts -- and it is a dark, dark place.

The Naming His Grace blog has an excellent post on this: The Israel/Palestine Mission Network posts a film put together by those espousing radical Islamic views of Israel. UP-date. Be sure to read the comments, where the "filmmaker" himself shows up to justify his work. Revealing.

Pretty frightening stuff.

People, watch this video.

This is how far beyond the pale PC(USA) peace activists have gone.

They didn't make the video, but they are broadcasting it.
