So all those racist speech, deporting black people, white supremacy are the work of your own god

Do you think Israelis are Christians!!!
Hope you remember the way they deal with you people in the holding days

Taah! Gerout of here! Have you heard of a Jew terrorizing Christians?! It's only Muslims that terrorize Christians! It also Muslims that enslave Blacks in Libya! So whether Israeli are majorly Jews, we support them!

After all, the Jews rely on the old testaments of the Bible as there HolyBook while Christians rely on both the old testaments and the new testaments as our HolyBook! In conclusion, the Jews and Christians are brothers!!

Mumu, a lazy Christian that does not read is a gullible Christian.
There is absolutely no camaraderie between Christianity & Judaism.
Judaism is not only d antithesis of Christianity, but also its mortal enemy.
Why don't u read what d Jewish Talmud says about Jesus & Christians before spewing rubbish on a public forum.
Modern-day Israel is not a Christian nation, rather it is a nation of Judaists who see Jesus as a fake prophet who came to turn people away from God.

It is a shame that illiterate, Bible thumping Christian Taliban like u think it is a Christian/Muslim issue. It is d issue of illegal land grab by modern-day Israel, a country of Zionists who ar not indigenous to d land of Palestine but ar Europeans who fled frm oppression & anti-semitism they suffered in Poland & other European nations only to come & settle down in Palestine.

Educate urself & understand what d UN & d world majority are saying - Israel must stop being a rogue state & respect d same UN resolution which brought it into being.
While i concede to the fact that the guy you quoted is indeed ignorant to think the issue is a Christian/muslim saga, indeed he is ignorant about the isreali and Jews generally.

However i don't agree to the latter part of your argument, you seem to be biased like the guy you just quoted sir. It is wrong for you to posit that the jews are land grabbers in Jerusalem, in fact i doubt if the palestinians can attest to what you just said deriving from the long history of the jews with Jerusalem. Jerusalem belonged to the jews, over their years of wars they travelled and moved out which was when the palestinians occupied their land. If you argue that it will be unfair for them to be shut out is another thing hence the clamour for a two nations state. But hell no you can't maintain an argument succesfully that Jerusalem doesn't belong to the jews.

This particular pronouncement is what will rally the Muslim world together to finally fight against Israel. Their league is recognised as the Beast which will attempt to crush Israel and Christians. Turkish president is already calling all Muslim Nations in respect to this issue.

They will indeed succeed to an extent when they converge round Israel to bombard it. That's when Israel will finally accept all the prophecies spoken of how Jesus will return to fight for them with the heavenly hosts. Have you ever wondered why all the nations Jesus will battle against as listed in the Bible are Islamic Nations today?

We shall overcome.


Muslims always claiming what doesn't belong to them. That's how they claim that Jesus and all the biblical prophets were Muslims.

It's Jesus that will put an end to the problem.
Remember that he's a descendant of Solomon the son of David. Also remember how Solomon judged the case of 2 harlots in the Bible. Their story is a narrative of the Jewish people of Israel and the Arab people of ishmael. Both are referred to as harlots cos they went after another god.

In the story, both women had gave birth. While they slept, one noticed that her child had died, so she took the dead child and swapped it with the other woman's own living child while she was asleep.
When the other woman woke up, she noticed and so the case was taken to king Solomon. When both couldn't let go off the living child, Solomon ordered that the child be sliced into 2 for the women to take each half.

The original mother couldn't stand that, so she begged that the child be given to the wicked woman. Even at that, the wicked woman insisted that they cut the child into 2. That was how Solomon knew the real mother.

Same thing is playing out in Jerusalem. The Muslims would prefer to go to war for a city that doesn't belong to them. They succeeded in building their mosque in the ground where God's temple was, then they proceeded to wanting the city for themselves. When decision came that the city be divided between them and the Israelites, they were cool with it just as that wicked woman was cool with the baby cut into two.

You are wise

Jesus will never fight for Isreal because first they don't recognise Jesus and secondly Israel was not supposed to have a standing army. They weren’t supposed to stockpile weapons. There were no taxes to fund a permanent military. Israel’s rulers were forbidden from amassing large numbers of horses (Deuteronomy 17:16-17)—which was about as close as you could get to an arms race in the ancient Near East. Israel’s king was not supposed to make foreign military alliances. God stipulated that Israel should remain militarily weak so they would learn to trust him for protection.

Israel wasn’t allowed to conscript anyone into military service. If you didn’t want to fight, you didn’t have to fight. Note this remarkable command from Deuteronomy 20:When you go to war against your enemies… the officers shall say to the army: “Has anyone built a new house and not yet begun to live in it? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else may begin to live in it. Has anyone planted a vineyard and not begun to enjoy it? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else enjoy it. Has anyone become pledged to a woman and not married her? Let him go home, or he may die in battle and someone else marry her.” Then the officers shall add, “Is anyone afraid or fainthearted? Let him go home so that his fellow soldiers will not become disheartened too.”

If u ar enlightened u will realize dat d Israel to whom God gave d land is not the same nation dat we call Israel today.

Of course Israelis deserve & hav their own state. I'm talking here of d settlers who came from Europe to ursurp & grab indigenous Palestinian land while believing that Palestinians do not deserve a state.
While previous Israeli & US govts, d UN & most of d world including urself believe in 2 states, d present Israeli & US govts do not share dis belief.
Netanyahu continues to frustrate d 2-state solution by building settlements non-stop on d land of d future state of Palestine.

While Trump, the "p*ssy grabber" is just playing politics by energizing his political base of Evangelicals in d USA, Netanyahu is a dangerous & dishonest right wing zionist extremist who does not believe in peace. He had to resign his appointment as finance Minister in protest to Sharon's giving back of Gaza to d Palestinians in furtherance of d 2-state solution & peace.

As an enlightened Christian, i realize dat d Israel to whom God gave d land is not the same nation dat we call Israel today.

shut the fvck up.....your just looking for an excuse not to cry about trump's new plan. the dealing in the olden days was an history never to repeat itself

go and join the Palestinian army to fight Israel and if you'd dont have the balls shut and fvck off for life angry

It is either you are a small pikin or you are not beyond your room. But I will trey to open your eyes, just read the following:

Israel[edit]

A vandalized Christian graveyard in Bethlehem. The text says "Death to Arabs" in Hebrew.
In Jerusalem, there have been instances of Christian churches and monasteries being vandalized with spray-painted offensive remarks against Christianity, including death threats. These are believed to be price tag attacks by extremist settlers.[20][21]

In Tel Aviv in 2008, three teenagers burned hundreds of Christian Bibles.[22][23]

A number of Ultra-Orthodox/Haredi youth have reportedly spat at Christian clergymen. Archbishop Aris Shirvanian, of Jerusalem's Armenian Patriarchate, says he personally has been spat at about 50 times in the past 12 years.[24][25] The Anti-Defamation League has called on the chief Rabbis to speak out against the interfaith assaults.[26] Father Goosan, Chief Dragoman of the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem, stated that, "I know there are fanatical Haredi groups that don't represent the general public but it's still enraging. It all begins with education. It's the responsibility of these men's yeshiva heads to teach them not to behave this way".[27] In January 2010, Christian leaders, Israeli Foreign ministry staff, representatives of the Jerusalem municipality and the Haredi community met to discuss inter-faith tolerance. The Haredi Community Tribunal of Justice published a statement condemning harassment of Christians, stating that it was a "desecration of God's name." Several events were planned in 2010 by the Orthodox Yedidya congregation to show solidarity with Christians and improve relations between the Haredi and Christian communities of Jerusalem.[28][29]

In July 2012, a former member of the Knesset, Michael Ben-Ari, who supports Kahanism, videotaped himself tearing up a copy of the New Testament and throwing it in the trash. Ben-Ari referred to it as a "despicable book" that should be "in the dustbin of history".[30] In response, the American Jewish Committee urged the Knesset to censure Ben-Ari, while a spokesman for Benjamin Netanyahu also condemned Ben-Ari's actions.[31]
