I'm not familiar with that particular church, but it sounds like it's from the Pietist or ana-baptist tradition, which has always tended towards pacifism and - in modern times - far-left politics. The American Friends Service Committee, for example, is about as far left as you can get; it's a church Ramsey Clark would feel quite comfortable with, i.e., America is ALWAYS wrong, (left-wing) dictators are ALWAYS right.

The Brethern are from Anabaptist roots.
