The official Iranian news agency has highlighted the report that went to the recent Methodist Conference on Israel and Palestine.
With some glee it notes the Methodist stance, demonstrating the ease with which this clumsy report will be used against Israel:
The 54-page report to the conference, which decides Methodist policies, identifies that Israel’s “occupation of Palestinian territory” is the "key hindrance to security and a lasting peace for all in the region.”
When the Iranian government talks of the "occupation of Palestinian territory" they always make it very clear that they mean the entire area of the soverign State of Israel.
However Iran shares with Israel and the area of the Palestinian Authority the dubious distinction of not having one Methodist Church on its soil.
Any volunteers to open a Methodist Church in Tehran?
Why don't we ask the finger waggers on working party that drew up that report to go? They could start by trying to persuade the Iranian government to stop hanging homosexuals .
Once they are flushed with success by that achievement they could approach the Iranian government and ask them to stop funding Hezbollah attacks on Israeli civilians.
I wonder how long this putative Methodist Church would last?
