Zionist Christians’ war on the true meaning of Christmas
The rhetoric of Christian Zionists consistently places loyalty to the modern state of Israel above the example and teachings of the Jesus born in Bethlehem whose birth Christmas celebrates.

Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Courage” rally in Jerusalem ends with a whimper
Could a dull event in Jerusalem, in front of just 1,000 people, spell the end of Glenn Beck?
