John McCain and Joe Lieberman to meet with organization that wants to bring about the Apocalypse

[ck4829]

Press Release from CUFI (Christians United For Israel):

"***MEDIA ALERT***PHOTO-OP***INTERVIEW OP***

SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN TO MAKE SURPRISE APPEARANCE AT CHRISTIANS UNITED FOR ISRAEL WASHINGTON SUMMIT

Senator John McCain will make a surprise appearance at the Christians United For Israel Washington Summit in a strong show of support for Israel

Who: Senator John McCain, Pastor John Hagee, Founder of CUFI; Former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Newt Gingrich, Ambassador Dore Gold, Senator Joe Lieberman

What: CUFI has emerged as one of the most important Christian grassroots organizations in America. CUFI has held over 55 Nights to Honor Israel in different cities across America. Last July, CUFI rallied over 3,500 constituents to Washington for its first DC Summit.

Visuals: Leading experts in Middle East affairs will be leading panel discussions. 4,000 individuals will gather together to show their support for Israel.

Where: Marriott Wardman Hotel
Washington, D.C.

When: Tuesday, July 17 at 1:30 PM

Why: To introduce the association to Senators and Congressmen, expressing concern for Israel’s security and CUFI’s support of Israel’s right to the land by biblical mandate."

It’s not much of a “surprise” appearance if CUFI is announcing it a day in advance, now is it? In fact, the only thing surprising about this at all is that McCain and Lieberman would agree to share the stage with a man who wants to bring about Armageddon and the subsequent return of Jesus Christ by launching a military strike on Iran.

1. Who better to lead us to the apocalypse than these two.

When Likud and American snake handler fundies get together to push foreign policy, you can bet you are in for interesting times.

2. Christians united for Israel?

Sounds like the bush administration appointees. So that(I) after Lieberman's name stands for Israel? Joe is a great danger to the Israeli people. i fear for Israel if Iran is attacked. The Israeli people are very nice, it is their government that sucks, just like ours.

4. Fundies couldn't care

they figure Israel is "God's Chosen" so we better use them and fight against them but yeah in the end it's convert or die. Unless they figure Jesus is giving them a pass. Either way it's their turf it's supposed to go down on.
