    One most certainly does not have to be a "godhater" to reject the minority view of eschatology - specifically pre-millennialism - that identifies the modern political state of Israel with the Jewish people of the Old Testament, and equates support for the former with some sort of reverential deference to the latter. The political state of Israel and its leaders have gotten away with actions and policies that would have resulted in sanctions (if not a declaration of war) from the United States had they come from almost any other country. People of all Faiths, including Jews and the majority of Catholic and mainstream Protestant Christians, have problems with Israel's territorial aspirations and defiance of International Law. It has nothing at all to do with being a "godhater", and everything to do with being a clear-eyed, unbiased seeker after justice.

    Yeah yeah sounds nice but ill take israel every single day of the week, day in and day out and all their practices and everything theyve gotten away as you say LONG BEFORE I accept cutting peoples heads off, rape, murder, genocide, torture, burning people alive, pedophillia and hating EVERYONE except other muslims, Long before I accept all the Israel must die countries.

    When I listen to those that hate on israel and then I look at the countries all around them and what THEYVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH and what they do day in and day out and to me Israel looks like a Shining Star in the middle of a pile of $#@!. I know some believe its all Israels fault,

    I don’t know of many people who “hate” Israel. I’m deeply practicing Jewish, I love Israel, but I don’t blindly accept and defend everything the government of Israel does. I don’t think you love or follow God just because you do blindly accept and defend anything the Israeli government does.

    Israel gets hate because they stir $#@! up. These problems wouldn't even exist on this scale if they weren't insistent on using Western force to uproot native Palestinians so they could get their selfish, violent, entitled way. And no, I don't necessarily hold those sins on most modern day Israelis, as most were born into this situation, but nevertheless, that reality remains.

    I dont blindly accept what the US govt does why would I accept all of what israels govt does.

    Comparing apples to apples Israel is NOT the bad guy in the middle east, nor is it the promulgator of violence.
    Yes they can be quite violent I realize that but from where I sit its for their self defense.

    The palestinian thing is another situation where the rest of the Arab world should have given them a piece of sand of their own a long time ago.

    I would genuinely feel for the palestinians except I watched Arafat and Enud Barak at peace talks with Clinton Brokering, Arafat kept saying NO unless all his demands were met. Finally Enud Barack said Ok I will agree with all your demands. Arafat $#@! all over himself got quite started stuttering and turned EVERYTHING he asked for down. Later he said he couldnt take it because his people would turn on him and toss him out.

    That told me there was no sincerity in the negotiations on the part of the palestinians.

    Look if you lived in a NYC neighborhood and your neighbor told you every time they saw you, they hate you and will annihilate you and your neighbor across the street tells you the same thing and the one next door on the other side. Uhh would you shower them with love in return or would you just prepare for lethal force in self defense

    I dont agree with all they do but I damn sure do not view them as the bad guys and I dont think theres a damn thing israel can do to stop the hatred other than move their entire population out of israel and give it to the arabs.

    It’s unusual to have all 100 US Senators agree on anything. But they all signed a letter to the UN, complaining about the bad treatment Israel gets.
    https://www.timesofisrael.com/all-10...i-israel-bias/

    “Native” Palestinians and “native everyone else” were driven out to make room for the Jews. Jews messed up, had their country conquered a time or two, due to their disobedience. But the promise of everlasting home for the Jews never expires, and it includes a lot more land than the present boundaries.
