With no similar program in other conflict zones, the WCC's Ecumenical Accompaniment Program in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) consists of activists being sent to "witness life under occupation."

"EAPPI misuse tourist visas to enter Israel, where the group has no legal status," according to NGO Monitor. "They are hosted in Jerusalem by a WCC affiliate, the Jerusalem Interchurch Center (JIC). Notably, the head of JIC, Yusuf Dahar, is one of the authors of the Kairos Palestine Document, which legitimizes terror, embraces anti-Jewish theology and rejects Jewish history. Similar views have been expressed by a number of WCC officials."

The NGO Monitor report also stated that EAPPI has been funded by UNICEF and countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Denmark, Canada and Japan.

Norway contributed nearly $2 million between 2017 to 2019, while Sweden gave $500,000 between 2017 and 2018.

"We are sharing our research with the public and decision-makers as part of an informed discussion on EAPPI's agenda and funding. The research highlights EAPPI's radical agenda, which, rather than advancing or defending human rights, is a platform for conflict and anti-Semitism," said NGO Monitor founder and president Gerald Steinberg. "We have received numerous inquiries from Christian and Jewish groups calling attention to the central role played by EAPPI alumni in leading BDS and other delegitimization campaigns."

"By singling out Israel and using classical theological references, EAPPI is guilty of using the terms identified in the International Holocaust Remembrance Association's working definition of anti-Semitism," he added. "The WCC should instead adopt this definition, which has been adopted by a number of countries and parliaments." Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
