CAMERA: Naim Ateek's Spring Tour - 'Naim Ateek's Ash Wednesday (Feb. 25) service at Christ Church in Cambridge, Mass., was tame given his history of using polemic from the New Testament as a weapon to demonize Israel...Ateek's alleged ignorance about the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem's role in the Holocaust is emblematic of his failure to address the role longstanding Muslim hostility toward Jews has played in prolonging the Arab-Israeli conflict. Would-be peacemakers who cannot bring themselves to address Muslim land theology and the Islamic teachings about Jewish people and their impact on the Arab-Israeli conflict and interfaith relations are not worthy of the name.'
