It is important people know of Welby's involvement with the Israeli government through his role as president of the Council for Christians and Jews.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is the president of an organisation, the CCJ, which, according to its own reports, takes people on tours of occupied Palestine, where they visit illegal Israeli settlements and meet with Israeli government officials.
The CCJ also works with one of Israel's national institutions, the United Jewish Israel Appeal, which has also been found to take students on trips to illegal Israeli settlements.
The Head of Israel Engagement at UJIA, Robin Moss, described Welby's organisation as carrying out "pioneering work."
The director of the Welby's group was, until recently, Elizabeth Harris-Sawczenko, who worked for the Israeli government-funded Abraham Initiatives at the same time.
The Abraham Initiatives claims it exists to “increase synergy between UK and Israeli bodies and agencies."
The organisation Justin Welby heads also recommends the group Friends of Roots, an Israeli settler project founded by Jean Marc Liling, a former advisor to the Israeli Prime Minister, as a trusted resource on Palestine.
