CAMERA Challenges Episcopal Church on its Portrayal of Arab-Israeli Conflict
November 13, 2006

After preparing an analysis of the Episcopal Church’s stance on the Arab-Israeli conflict, CAMERA sent letters to Rt. Rev. Katharine Jefferts Schori, incoming Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, and to Rev. Canon Brian Grieves, the church’s Director of the Peace and Justice Ministries. The letters express concern about the one-sided and distorted narrative the Episcopal Church has broadcast about the Arab-Israeli conflict. Although prominent members and bishops within the Church have expressed concern about Church's portrayal of the Arab-Israeli conflict, the national leaders of the denomination have failed to respond.

The text of these letters is displayed below. The first letter was sent to Rt. Rev. Katharine Jefferts Schori and the second was sent to Rev. Canon Brian Grieves.
