Jimmy Carter, eh? How instructive. Carter, whose profound and disturbing animus against Israel has been revealed in all its ugly reality in recent years, was a disastrous President whose serial misjudgments paved the way for the Islamic Revolution in Iran, the baleful consequences of which are now reaching crisis point. During his term of office he consistently acted against Israel’s interests and in favour of its Arab enemies. What Miliband is referring to is the historic agreement over which Carter presided in 1978 at Camp David between Israel’s Menachem Begin and Egypt’s Anwar Sadat . This was truly a monumental milestone and the one event which has been held to redeem Carter’s... Jimmy Carter, eh? How instructive.

Once again, Anglican representatives have singled out Israel for criticism without placing her actions in context or directly addressing the Palestinian contribution to the conflict.

Yet again, the Anglican establishment has singled out Israel for scapegoating, defamation and demonisation. A Resolution on the Middle Eastpassed three days ago by the Anglican Consultative Committee parrots, as usual, Arab and Muslim propaganda against Israel – now the default position of Anglicanism as it genuflects to the force that is intent upon destroying it. Not all Anglicans by any means support this resolution which has been passed in their name: Anglican Friends of Israel has protested:

Leaving aside for the moment the malice towards Israel that is involved, the attitude of the Obama administration towards the Middle East is well-nigh incomprehensible in its suicidal stupidity. It is trying to make Israel play the role of Czechoslovakia in 1938, when Britain under Neville Chamberlain told it that if it didn’t submit to the Nazis it would stand alone – with the result that the following year, Hitler invaded Poland. Determined to prove that history repeats itself the second time as tragedy, America is trying to force Israel to destroy its security by accepting the creation of a terrorist Iranistan on its doorstep, under the threat that otherwise the US will not help protect its security by defanging Iran (and how, precisely would it do that?).
