Friends of Sabeel: Laila al Marayati; keynotge speaker
On the black list. Why?
[It is like you can not google for yourself?
As if you have no idea as to why this group would be on the "Black list"?]
Friends of Sabeel – North America (FOSNA) is the U.S.-based affiliate of the Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center, a Palestinian Christian organization based in Jerusalem. FOSNA serves as the “voice for Palestinian Christians” against Israel’s policies and has been a driving force behind various Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns against Israel, including those initiated by mainline Protestant churches in the U.S.
Sabeel, FOSNA’s parent organization, was founded in 1990 by Reverend Naim Ateek, a Palestinian Christian theologian. Ateek is fiercely critical of Israeli policy and in recent years has begun privately advocating for a one-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict despite Sabeel’s stated support for a “just peace based on two states.”
Ateek, along with several other Palestinian theologians, coined and developed what they describe as “Palestinian liberation theology” in the late 1980s. Based on the premise that the Bible’s explicit descriptions of the land of Israel as belonging to the Jewish people must be repudiated and redefined, this theology reinterprets those descriptions in an attempt to bolster the legitimacy of the Palestinian position and disavow Zionism. Ateek has claimed that the notion that the land of Israel belongs to the Jewish people is “bad theology” and that the establishment of Israel is a “relapse to the most primitive concepts of an exclusive, tribal God.”

[ Yeah, Palestinian Christians, just like the Palestinian Muslims....just dreaming of a world without Israel ]
Oh, the poor man
He has clearly failed to do his homework and feel sorry for all the Jews who were attacked, murdered, raped, mutilated, or expelled by force by the Muslim and Christian Arabs from 1920 to 1948, from Gaza to TranJordan.
Let us all cry for his horrible experience as a child, brought up by that Muslim of all Muslims.......Al- Husseini and his clan of "We are not accepting Jews having sovereignty over their own ancient homeland......EVER "
