CHRISTIAN
RADIO HOST GAGGED
EVANGELIST
DALE CROWLEY TOLD:
“YOU CAN’T TALK ABOUT THAT”
The
unAmerican thought police operating on
American soil have struck once again. This
time their victim is veteran Christian
evangelist Dale Crowley, Jr. who has been
the host of two popular radio programs
broadcast over WFAX 1220-AM radio in the
Washington area for the last 20 years.
Crowley was told by the president and
general manager of WFAX, that his Saturday
morning broadcast, “Focus on Israel,” was
terminated immediately. He was not even
given an opportunity to bid farewell to
his longtime listeners.
The program was canceled by the WFAX
management because supporters of Israel
had complained to the radio station about
Crowley’s criticisms of Israel.
Over the years Crowley has been critical
of Israel. He has dared to broadcast facts
about efforts by the Israeli
government to curtail the work of
Christian missionaries in the Holy Land,
even to the extent, as Crowley has pointed
out, of laws introduced in the Israeli
parliament that would penalize Christians
who engage in missionary work among the
Israelis, requiring that those convicted
of evangelism be sent to jail.
In addition, Crowley has used his WFAX
broadcast to tell
Christians in the Washington area of how
the Israelis have oppressed Christian
Palestinians, uprooting them from their
homes, vandalized Christian churches in
the Holy Land, and otherwise made life
difficult for Christian Palestinians and
other Christian Arabs in the Middle East.
Crowley has upset many supporters of
Israel by pointing out that under the
thinking of such Christian supporters of
Israel as Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and
Tim LaHaye, a New York-born Jewish atheist
has more right to live in the holy city of
Jerusalem than a Palestinian Christian
minister whose family has lived there for
1,000 years. Full
