Church of England Pulls Exhibit Celebrating Palestinian Jihadis– gellerreport.com

The Church of England is just leftism at prayer, and so it was hardly surprising that, as The Times put it in its headline on, of all days, September 11, “Church of England promotes tapestry ‘with tribute to jihadists.’” Well, of course. Leftists have their heroes and saints just like everyone else.

The Times explained that “the fabric that will go on display at Leeds Minster appears to show the names of 12 members of Palestinian Islamic Jihad and one member of Hamas.”

Ultimately, this did not happen; saner minds prevailed. The BBC reported Friday that “a church exhibition honouring people who have lost their lives in Gaza has been removed from show after it emerged the display was said to feature names of several Hamas fighters.”

Abashed, the church that was showing the exhibition issued a statement saying that it wanted to “work with all faith groups within the city and acknowledges that by hosting this exhibition we have harmed our relationship with some in the Jewish community for which we apologise and now seek to rebuild trust.”
