JERUSALEM (Reuters) - The Vatican's envoy in the Holy Land and bishops
from three other churches have launched a rare joint attack on the
Christian Zionist movement, accusing it of promoting "racial
exclusivity and perpetual war."

Christian Zionists form a growing part of the pro-Israel lobby in the
United States, the Jewish state's main ally. They believe the return of
Jews to the Holy Land and establishment of Israel are proof of God's
promises to biblical patriarchs.... "We reject the teachings of
Christian Zionism that facilitate and support these policies as they
advance racial exclusivity and perpetual war," the declaration added.
