Christenen voor Israël
Christians for Israel ('Christenen voor Israel') is a Dutch Christian Zionist organisation. It was founded in 1979 by Karel van Oordt and Pee Koelewijn.[1] In 1998 Christians for Israel International was founded by international affiliates of CFI.[2] The organisation has close ties with the Christian Friends of Israeli Communities which facilitates settlement activity in the Occupied Territories. The latter organisation has been described as CFI's 'daughter organisation'.[3]
Reportedly one of the groups activities is supporting illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied territories.[3] In the organisation's store products made in the occupied West Bank are sold.[3]
