A documentary by Max Blumenthal about the Christians United for Israel’s (CUFI) annual Washington-Israel Summit held on July 16, 2007. Founded by San Antonio-based megachurch pastor John Hagee, this year’s CUFI conference featured Senator Tom DeLay, Senator Joseph Lieberman, and other key Washington power-players. According to Blumenthal:
- I have covered the Christian right intensely for over four years. During this time, I attended dozens of Christian right conferences, regularly monitored movement publications and radio shows, and interviewed scores of its key leaders. I have never witnessed any spectacle as politically extreme, outrageous, or bizarre as the one Christians United for Israel produced last week in Washington. See for yourself.
