The above thread is always relevant to this discussion cos that's the Genesis of the unending generational war between Isreal and Palestine
Isreal are a mere settler even in their own Israel state yet still occupying Palestine lands for over 70 years not to talk of millions of Palestines that have been displaced for decades.
Oh dear, what justification did Hamas have to have sent more than 5000 rockets to Israel on Oct 7 plus the infiltration of his terrorist men in Isreal border to Gaza killing innocent Isrealis including babies?.
Hamas killed less than 2,000 Isrealis while Isreal already killed 12,000 Palestines.
Both are evil set of people Go and sit down. Netanyahu has just written a book titled 'How to deal with Islamic Terrorism '. |

Premium Times Nigeria
BUA Group Ad The butchery in Gaza, By Femi Fani-Kayode We must have the decency and prescence of mind to condemn the slaughter of ALL human beings, whether they be Christians, Muslims, Jews or anything else. ByFemi Fani-Kayode November 5, 2023 Reading Time: 4 mins read
Picture credit: Hatem Ali/Associated Press. There is no doubt that Israel has the right to defend itself, especially from those who claim it does not have the right to exist, but no sane person can applaud the butchering of women and children, the targetting and bombing of hospitals, churches, schools, mosques, universities, homes and ambulances and the wholesale slaughter of 10,000 civilians (and still counting) all in the space of three weeks.
How can any sane person enjoy or derive satisfaction from the slaughter that is now taking place in Gaza? It is indefensible. It is unacceptable.
It is nothing but state-sponsored terror in its most savage and primitive form.
It is ethnic cleansing. It is genocide. It is mass murder. It is wickedness. It is barbaric. It is evil.
It is the most notorious and graphic example of man’s inhumanity to man.
ⓘ FIRS It is unconciable and it is unjustifiable.
All my life I have loved the State of Israel and defended its right to exist.
This is especially so given the fact that I am a Pentecostal Christian who wholeheartedly believes the Biblical scripture that says, “He who blesses Israel is blessed and he who curses Israel is cursed.”
I acknowledge the fact that the Jews have suffered and been persecuted more than any other race in the history of the world and I was one of the first in my country Nigeria to wholeheartedly condemn the frightful massacre carried out by Hamas on 7th October.
Despite that I cannot possibly rationalise what is going on in Gaza in the name of retaliation or the desire to destroy and wipe out Hamas.
When you kill innocent and defenceless Palestinian women and children, you are not wiping out Hamas but strengthening their cause and giving millions of people all over the world a reason to support their cause and join their ranks.
Israel is committing war crimes and crimes against humanity.
It is an irrational, unreasonable, emotional and disproportionate response to what was undoubtedly a terrible and unconciable wrong, which may win the battle for the Jewish state but will also inevitably cost it support in much of the civilised world.
What was once a reasonable, rational, equitable, just, fair-minded, strong, confident and flourishing nation, which was the shining light of the Middle East and our collective pride and joy as Christians has now become a rogue killer state, which is as bloodthirsty and bloodlusting as the Nazis of Hitler’s Germany, ISIS, Hamas, Boko Haram, Daesh and Al Qaeda, all rolled into one.
There is no doubt that Israel has the right to defend itself, especially from those who claim it does not have the right to exist, but no sane person can applaud the butchering of women and children, the targetting and bombing of hospitals, churches, schools, mosques, universities, homes and ambulances and the wholesale slaughter of 10,000 civilians (and still counting) all in the space of three weeks.
TEXEM Advert Israel is being guided and led by rage and the spirit of vengeance. It has lost all reason and those with a level head are no where near the levers of power. It is now like a wild, wounded lion devouring everything and everyone in its path.
What was once a reasonable, rational, equitable, just, fair-minded, strong, confident and flourishing nation, which was the shining light of the Middle East and our collective pride and joy as Christians has now become a rogue killer state, which is as bloodthirsty and bloodlusting as the Nazis of Hitler’s Germany, ISIS, Hamas, Boko Haram, Daesh and Al Qaeda, all rolled into one.
We must have the decency and prescence of mind to condemn the slaughter of ALL human beings, whether they be Christians, Muslims, Jews or anything else.
Israel has a right to defend itself but not the right to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity or to wipe out an entire race and displace and relocate an entire people.
ⓘ Kogi AD
Any Christian who believes otherwise in the name of “blessing or loving Israel” is not a real Christian and is not a true friend of the Jewish state.
Dangote adbanner 728x90_2 (1) Why? Because real friends tell one another the bitter truth and real Christians do not support injustice and the massacre of defenceless women and children.
Only demons do that!
If you really want to bless and love Israel then tell Israeli leaders the bitter truth and pray that the lord will deliver them from the madness and unrestrained rage that has seized their minds.
Blessing and loving Israel does not involve encouraging them to wipe out a whole race.
Blessing and loving Israel does not involve supporting them to kill every Palestinian in the Gaza strip in the name of eliminating Hamas.
Blessing and loving Israel means encouraging them to fight their enemies and defend themselves in a dignified and civilised way by abiding by the laws of war and armed conflict, by honouring the rules of engagement and by working within the strictures and framework of international law, whilst in the field of battle.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean we should support them to target and kill every Muslim and Christian man, woman and child in Gaza.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean we should sit by silently and watch them turn into worse monsters than the German Nazis who murdered six million of their people in gas chambers during World War II.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean supporting its every action, even when it is wrong.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean saying no to a humanitarian pause in the ground offensive and bombing or a ceasefire in order to get the wounded out and send in the much needed food and medical supplies.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean that we should lose our humanity, our compassion, our decency and our sense of reasoning.
ⓘ Blessing and loving Israel does not mean supporting those in the Israeli Knesset who have said the the 2.5 million Palestinians who live in Gaza should either be killed or relocated to 100 different countries at the rate of 25,000 Palestinians per country.
Blessing and loving Israel does not mean that we should espouse the hateful philosophy and satanic spirit of apartheid, which we as Africans spent so many decades opposing and resisting in South Africa.
Blessing and loving Israel means admonishing them to be accomodating, flexible, kind, calm, compassionate, restrained, rational, reasonable, level-headed and loving, even where and when they have been badly hurt and gravely wounded, as they were on the 7th of October.
Blessing and loving Israel means encouraging them to fight their enemies and defend themselves in a dignified and civilised way by abiding by the laws of war and armed conflict, by honouring the rules of engagement and by working within the strictures and framework of international law, whilst in the field of battle.
Blessing and loving Isreal means encouraging the Jews and giving them hope and support in their time of need, reminding them to have faith in God and admonishing them to be righteous in all their ways.
That is what we are expected to do as believers and not to celebrate and rejoice when they slaughter innocent women and children and when they indulge in what can best be described as the second holocaust.
