Rev. Ron Werner Jr. writes the freshmen members of the House of Representatives that just traveled to Israel with AIPAC and tells them about the delegation to the occupied territories he just attended with Interfaith Peace Builders at the same time. He says, “I get the feeling we had two very different trips and I worry that your ‘first hand’ experience might be limited to a perspective offered only by those funding your trip. While the leaders I met weren’t all government officials, they did have first hand experience as people directly impacted by the lack of peace and justice in the region.”
