The unholy alliance between some Evangelical churches in America and Israel's right wing is sometimes amusing, but it can also become dangerous.
Benny Elon, Israel's Tourism (!!) minister asked Christian missionaries to try to convert Moslems and "make them good Christians and good people".
This statement from a racist minister who is shamefully given a pulpit in Churches and Evangelical circles already bear fruit: More hatred towards Jews and Christians

ISRAEL \ Nov 23, 20041519Televangelist Pat Robertson speaks in Herzlia Security Conference a week before Christmas. Instead of a Christ-Centered message with concentration on God's love to all, he asks Israel to continue to brutally rule 3.5 Million Palestinians. And, even though nobody appointed him to be the speaker of the Evangelical Church, he claims 600 Million Born-Again Christians hold the same positions like him.
A sad story of a powerful Christian whose concentration on End-Times Theology made him forget to have love and compassion for Palestinians.
Come and See brings you the entire speech, unchanged.

ISRAEL \ Oct 30, 20032457Southern Baptists began work among Arabs in Israel more than 90 years ago. Today, 19 local Baptist Churches are the fruit of this blessed work and together with Messianic Jews, the Arab Baptists are the biggest Evangelical group in Israel. While Southern Baptists withdrew from this ministry to focus on other areas, they are selling the "Baptist House". Since local Baptists believe that this house should be given to them since they are a continuation of the ministry, they are now raising money to buy it

Having a close look at the results show that Nazareth politics did not recover from the events that took place in 1999, when a dispute over the construction of a mosque near the church of Annunciation was the only issue on the elections agenda.
