Rachel Tabachnick, who’s lately been following Christian Militias, posts this today at Talk to Action: “On April 15-16 the Freedom Federation, a recent coalition of Religious Right organizations, will be holding a conference at Liberty University titled The Awakening 2010. The event could be described as Religious Right activists – White, Hispanic, Asian, and African American, coming together to embrace a John Birch Society worldview to the tunes of Hebrew melodies. It may sound unlikely, but the “pro-Israel” agenda is the camouflage that provides cover for this explicitly Christian nationalist movement.” The Freedom Federation was founded last summer by a coalition of conservative Christian leaders, including those representing American Association of Christian Counselors, the American Family Association, Catholic Online, Family Research Council, and Traditional Values Coalition. Right Wing Watch runs down the event speaker list here.
The “Pro-Israel” Facade.
