I dont think one need assume they are dabbling in dispensationalism in order to recognize that they were wrong to be antisemitic. Its not an atonement, its an apology. The article uses the pejorative term "replacement theology" to describe traditional Christian beliefs. That is dispensationalist.
Anti-Semitism and NAZI sympathies are represented as the consequence of traditional Christianity. Atonement is a form of reconciliation after an offense. The Amish group is seeks atonement for Anti-Semitism and NAZI sympathies by rejecting traditional Christian beliefs.

Note there's no real information in this article as to who these folks are, how many there were, whether they have the approval of their bishop(s). ... on behalf of the entire Amish community. Probably overstated. It's questionable whether the picture is real wrt this group, since Amish women do not usually wear clothing in any color other than black. But Amish on a plane makes for good headlines. Why not just head down to their local synagogue/temple in buggies?
Probably the Hagee/CUFI (pronounced goofy) folks put them up to it.

Really?

Thanks Amerisrael!
In a seemingly unprecedented move, a group of Amish Christians from the US made widespread use of modern technology -- including airplanes, tour buses and even iPhones -- in order to come to Israel and apologize to the Jews... The Amish, both in the US and Europe, have a long history of anti-Semitism and have traditionally been firm proponents of Replacement Theology, which claims that God cast aside the Jews for their widespread rejection of Jesus as their messiah. Many Amish once believed the Nazi Holocaust was God's punishment for that rejection of Jesus, and actually applauded Hitler. "We are here to say we are sorry," group leader Ben Girod told Israelâs Channel 2 News as the group visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem. "God reminded me that this is not who He is. We no longer want to reject you or look at you as not being God's people. You were God's people long before we were."

I have some Amish made Cherry wood bar stools. Not for drinking, my island in the kitchen bar.

It is my privilege to respond to such faith! Biblically I believe that this land belongs to the Jews, and the country stands as an example of how God is patient and faithful to a very unfaithful people.....kind of like us.

BLESSED BE THE NAME OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE WORD OF THE LORD.
BLESSED BE THE WAYS OF THE LORD.
PRAISE GOD! PRAISE GOD! PRAISE GOD!
Now, if the Amish could just educate the Amils, Preterists, Postmils, REPLACEMENTARIANS in the Christian world, they’d really be miracle workers.

The months left for waking up from such a grossly UNBiblical perspective as you assert
are diminishing rapidly.

Nor does he.
Indeed.
Sometimes, one feels a bit that . . . if some folks could actually READ THE BIBLE . . . given that they seem incapable of doing so . . . then they’d be a LOT more responsible and guilty of ignoring and violating The Scriptures truths.

God is not impressed favorably
at all
by REPLACEMENTARIANS such as y’all
who essentially functionally call God a liar
about HIS
EVERLASTING PROMISES TO THE BLOOD CHILDREN OF JACOB.

The word TRINITY is not in the New Testament either.
REPLACEMENT hogwash is still the most apt term for the stinking pile of lies it represents.

REPLACEMENTARIANS FAITHFULLY PROVIDE ABUNDANDLY
Great examples of Biblical ignorance gone to seed.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
I increasingly agree with you about
CINO’s and REPLACEMENTARIANISM.
I’m increasingly skeptical that one can be a passionate REPLACEMENTARIANISM and remain an authentic Christian.

We have repeatedly documented that
that assertion is thoroughly false.
Darby was a Johnny Come Lately
to the Biblical truths about Israel, the END TIMES and dispensations.
Continue to proffer falsehoods about such truths at your own risk.
