Anglican Church of Southern Africa Joins BDS Movement
The movement to Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) Israel celebrated a rare success this week as the Anglican Church of Southern Africa Synod, representing approximately 4 million Anglicans in South Africa, Namibia, Mozambique and Angola, voted to approve a resolution supporting BDS. “The current political nation-state of Israel and Israel in the Bible should not be confused with each other,” the resolution stated, adding that “many Christian pilgrimages to the current State of Israel often ignore the Christians living in Palestine.”
