DelegitimisationAbout Christian Middle East Watch
We are a long overdue voice coming from the Church in Britain, seeking to bring balance and truth to the debates and issues concerning the Middle East; at the heart of which lies the seeming unending and intractible struggle between the Jewish State of Israel and her Muslim neighbours.
Christian Middle East Watch aims to be a primary source of accurate and balanced information concerning Israel and the Middle East
Great Britain, historically a Christian nation, has unique ties to the Jewish people and Israel. This is principally through her Judeo-Christian heritage, historical links, common democratic values and shared sacred scriptures. We also have many historical links to the Middle East as a whole, having governed much of it in our empire and having helped to bring down the Ottoman Empire in World War One.
In modern Britain today there has been an increase in antisemitism and unprecedented hostility against the nation of Israel, largely because of ignorance and a lack of historical understanding of the current conflict in the Middle East. By addressing the issues that follow, the CMEW is helping to reinforce Britain's Judeo-Christian heritage and the biblical morality underlying our nation's parliamentary and legal systems.
- CMEW seeks to bring understanding, balance, comment and analysis on the Middle-East into the political arena, the media and the public domain.
- CMEW addresses the place of Israel within the wider region and the need to understand God's purpose and plan for what is the "Promised Land” in the Bible.
- CMEW will highlight the role of Britain in the Middle-East in recent history and the consequences of its stewardship of the region during the 20th century.
- CMEW will confront antisemitism in Britain in all its various forms.
- CMEW is unique in endeavouring to confront secular Britain with biblical Truth concerning Israel and the Middle-East through the presentation of Truth in a form palatable to the non-Christian world.
As CMEW develops, this site will become an archive of valuable, factual material on the Middle East, accessible by both professionals and anyone seeking to discover the truth behind conflicting headlines, statements and speeches that appear on our TVs, newspapers and laptop screens.
CMEW will especially address current issues relevant to Britain and her policies towards the Middle East and bring insights and informed comment on major incidents and diplomatic moves. Actions and statements by the EU will also be highlighted on this site.
