Yearly Archives: 2016
June 2, 2016
Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Canada reminds everyone to celebrate the Biblical type miracles that God performs in modern times. Such celebration will be particularly appropriate this Sunday, June 5, 2016 because it will be the 49th anniversary (on the Hebrew calendar) of the reunification of the Old City of Jerusalem with the modern State of Israel.
This was achieved in 1967 when Israel was forced to defend itself against unprovoked aggression from all its neighbours who then had overwhelming military superiority. God reversed that and gave Israel air superiority by arranging for a miraculous grouping of events in the one hour that Israel chose to start its defense. Just in that one hour the enemy air patrol was grounded for unknown reasons! The anti-aircraft were ordered shut down because senior high command were flying somewhere in the area! Enemy intelligence reports became unintelligible because they were sent with the wrong code, etc.! Miracles happened on the ground too. Some enemy officers made the silliest mistakes while others reported their limbs became inexplicably frozen and they could not raise them to fire their weapons!
Jewish communities across Canada will be marking the day in special ways and welcome all who wish to attend. Mizrachi Canada (a religious Zionist movement) is particularly active in this area and can be reached at mizrachi@rogers.com for more information.
Celebrating God’s miracles is good for everyone because it connects you to God and opens the door for personal miracles, both open and hidden. Join in.
Dr. Charles McVety, national chair of Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Canada, the largest pro Israel advocacy organization in the country, applauds the bipartisan initiative undertaken by Canada’s Members of Parliament. Today in the House of Commons, a bill presented by the Conservative party was supported by Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government to condemn Boycotts, Divestment or Sanctions (BDS) against Israel. Dr. McVety expressed the hope that the clarity found through Israel on this issue bless the House with further clarity to uphold Canadian values such as the sanctity of life.
Professor Frank Dimant, Dean of the Modern Israel Studies Department, Canada Christian College hailed this bill as a clear demonstration of Canadian opposition to the anti-Semitic BDS movement which focuses on demonizing the state of Israel and the Jewish people and nothing else. For this reason, Professor Dimant was regretfully shocked that the New Democratic Party withheld its support from the bill, joining instead with the demonizers.

Christian and Jewish leaders Flabbergasted Over Canadian Government Gift to UNRWA (United Nations Relief & Works Agency)
TORONTO, ON
Dr. Charles McVety, national chair of Christians United for Israel (CUFI) Canada, the largest pro Israel advocacy organization in the country, has strongly denounced the Trudeau government’s plan to give $15 million to an agency known for its support of terrorists and anti-Semitism.
“At a time when the PLO and Hamas are inciting a knifing intifada throughout Israel with over 170 innocent victims, it is outrageous for our government to give $15,000,000 of taxpayers’ money to reward the terrorist regime in Gaza via UNRWA. This agency has been proven to be teaching hate, promoting violence and anti-Semitism. We ask that the Trudeau government reconsider its gift. The Canadian people should be assured that this country will not support terrorism directly or indirectly.”
Professor Frank Dimant, Dean of the Modern Israel Studies Department, Canada Christian College and well known spokesman for grassroots Canadian Jewry said
“During the recent election there were intense efforts to convince the Jewish community that the Liberal party would continue the support for Israel that existed. Now, the Liberal government interprets that as remaining neutral. However, by reversing the previous government’s position against funding organizations that help promote Hamas and its goal of eradicating the Jewish homeland, we are becoming an active player, not on the side of our sister democracy Israel but rather on the side of radical Islamic terrorism. Canadians need to speak out immediately and loudly as this policy of ‘neutrality’ will surely lead us in the coming years to a dangerous situation akin to the European experience.”
