If you go to Israel and DO NOT try and convert Jews to Christianity, expect to be welcomed.

One reason for the success of the Jewish-Evangelical alliance in the last decade or so (and anotherview may disagree) is that the Evangelicals by and large (although not entirely) have not mustered their efforts to converting the Jews.

It is a zero sum game. The more that Evengelical Christians do that, the less they are loved, admired and welcomed into Jewish communities or Israel, the Jewish state.

Actaully, I do agree with you 100%. Evangelical Christians have been welcome in Israel because the overwhelming majority do NOT prostletyze when they are here. As such, they will continue to be welcomed and, indeed, encouraged to visit and explore their Christian roots.

Evangelical Christians who see the need to prostletyze in Israel are a small minority, but they seem to be the majority on this thread and perhaps on Free Republic. That subset of evangelical Christians is distincly unwelcome.
