It is gone! Up-Date

Praise the Lord, the video has been removed. And thank you to whoever was involved in removing it.

Up-Date- The Israel/Presbyterian Mission Network have now placed a statement on their site explaining why they removed the video. They write:


"Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
We have removed the video “I am Israel” as it was not the message we wanted to send about peacemaking between Israelis and Palestinians. We regret posting it in the first place as its message was not one of reconciliation. The comments that were posted about it confirmed that it was offensive to our members as well as other readers. We regret this mistake."

They should be thanked for removing it.

They should be thanked, though given their explanation you almost wonder if they bothered to watch it before posting it. Also makes you wonder about whoever wrote the puff-piece that accompanied it.

Yes, that is a puzzle. Either the person who wrote that piece did not watch the video, or is totally confused, or very deceitful.
