Christians and Israel
Meeting Point
|
|
|
"For Zion's sake I will not be silent"
(Isaiah 62:1)
Introduction
|
|
Take a Pen! was initiated by a small
group of European and Israeli citizens deeply concerned with the heavy
media-bias against Israel, at the end of year 2000, when after the
outburst of the massive Palestinian terror-wave the Western press did not
denounce terror, but mostly bashed Israel instead.
Today we, many volunteers around the world, Jews and Christians,
non-religious people and people of any faith, we write readers' letters to
the media, and citizens' letters to politicians and institutions,
defending the truth about the conflict, Israel's right to exist and the
hope for peace. We are not part of and do not
serve any political or religious organization or any government, but
co-operate willingly with any truth-seeking group or individual.
