This could be another test for well funded GOPA wing's foreign policy in the age of anti-racism/justice movements and rejection of chosen-race dogmas:

World Council of Churches wants EU sanctions on Israel if it annexes West Bank lands

(JTA) — The World Council of Churches is asking European diplomats to punish Israel with sanctions if it annexes West Bank lands. The request has triggered a heated debate in Christian circles.

The call to punish Israel came last month in a letter to EU foreign ministers from the Geneva headquarters of the council, an umbrella body established in 1948 that now has 350 member churches with about 500,000 followers among them. The Catholic Church is not a member.
If Israel annexes land, the letter said, “the EU must surely suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement,” a reference to a 1995 contract that promotes trade between the bloc and the Jewish state. In addition, the EU should apply sanctions on Israel “at least commensurate with those adopted by the EU in response to Russia’s annexation of Crimea.”

Nancy Pelosi, Donnell, Chuck Schumer, Mitch & the Deep State Swamp crew aren't going to like this, & will try to claim that it's "anti-Semitic".

There are no good people in this.
The world council of churches is an evil globalist institution that is anti-Christ, and we all know about Israel.

It's just like there are no good guys in the middle east, the arabs are no better than Israel.

To the untrained eye, this may appear as collectivist/racialist statement.

It might even be seen as anti-semitic by some since vast majority if mideast based children of G-d are semitic (Iraq, Syria, West Bank, Jesus birthplace Bethlehem, Israel ( proper and settlements) etc). Current MAGA movement's richest top donor is also from mideast (Israel) if not mistaken.

Curious, do you also agree with following views of a Bush supporterr? Did you support or oppose Iraqi freedom invasion?

Tucker Carlson: Fox host under fire again over resurfaced racist comments
Fox News host Tucker Carlson is under fire for the second time in as many days for remarks he made years ago as a guest on a shock jock radio program – this time for a barrage of racist language about the people of Iraq.
“I just have zero sympathy for them or their culture. A culture where people just don’t use toilet paper or forks,” he said of the nation in a 2006 appearance on the Bubba the Love Sponge radio show, in audio rediscovered by the liberal media watchdog group Media Matters. “They can just shut the $#@! up and obey, is my view.”
Carlson went on to call Iraq a “crappy place filled with a bunch of semiliterate primitive monkeys” during a 2o08 call-in on the show, which he was a regular guest on from 2006 to 2011

Do you support or oppose US taxpayers funded 6 decades old Israeli occupation of Palestinians?

The Israelis is one entity and could be bad but are you trying to tell me that all Arab countries are bad?
