    They straight up annihilated almost every last Christian from Gaza and it didn’t stir but a mild condemnation from the Anglican church. I doubt they’d complain if Israel barred christian pilgrims from Jerusalem tomorrow

      To be fair, the pope condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza as well. Fundamentalist evangelical Christian Zionists have more financial and media power than others though, I imagine, and many others are just plain silent.

        It’s hilarious that those extremist Israelis are attacking American/European evangelical fanbois just as well, remember this news event from may last year? It’s getting worse apparently.

          Yeah most Christians in the countries that matter are more hateful of Arabs and muslims than they are hateful of repression against Christians

          If they were just verbally protesting their presence and not committing assaulting I’d understand as there are legit reasons for Jewish people not to like Christian Zionism… but the Israeli state finds them politically convenient I guess, so of course they let it fly. 🙄
