Smearing Christian Zionists

By Mark D. Tooley

Church of England priest Stephen Sizer, vicar of Christ Church, Virginia Water in Surrey, has made attacking Christian support for Israel his central mission. Ironically, he comes not from the church’s left-wing but its evangelical branch, giving him access to wider global audiences not otherwise available. Sizer’s latest book, Zion’s Christian Soldiers, warns that pro-Israel U.S. evangelicals have monstrously distorted the Middle East by aligning America with Israel.

“In its worst forms, Christian Zionism uses the Bible to justify racial superiority, land expropriation, home demolitions, colonial settlements, the denial of international law and the dehumanization of Arabs,” Sizer complains. It also “provides a biblical justification for U.s. intervention in the Middle East. It is deeply mistrustful of the United Nations and the European Community, and actively opposes the implementation of international law and the right of Palestinians to a sovereign state alongside Israel.” read more
