New Jerusalem Patriarch: No Land For Jews

The man enthroned last week as Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem signed a secret document obliging him to nullify the recent sale to Jewish groups of land comprising much of a key entrance to Jerusalem's Old City, and has allegedly made statements against Jews living in certain parts of Jerusalem, WorldNetDaily has learned.
WND has learned prior to the new patriarchal election, Theofilos, along with other candidates for patriarch, signed a secret church document stating if he was elected leader he would nullify all transactions made by Irineos, including the Jaffa Gate lease.

The candidates were essentially blackmailed by the Palestinians that if they didn't sign the document and cancel the lease, they would not get approval of the PA as candidates and could not run in elections," a church source told WND. "This is an outright racist policy against the Jews. If peace proposals come through and Jerusalem is ever divided, the Palestinians want Jaffa's Gate, but Irineos' lease would give it to Israel."

A senior church leader close to Irineos told WND, "Theofilos has made statements about not providing Jerusalem land to Jews. He agrees with the Palestinians that they have the rights to eastern Jerusalem."
