Gay pride flag hoisted over U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv: welcome to Sodom's new headquarters
The Thanks Project ^ | 6/11/14 | Steve Berman

Posted on 06/12/2014 9:16:18 AM PDT by lifeofgrace


The U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Dan Shapiro, has hoisted the gay pride flag over the embassy building in Tel Aviv.  Todd Starnes grabbed the pic from the embassy's Facebook page.

“Proudly flying the colors,” Ambassador Dan Shapiro wrote on the embassy’s Facebook page. He posted a photograph showing a rainbow colored flag flying alongside the American flag outside the embassy in Tel Aviv. 
“For the first time in history, the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv has raised the Pride flag together with our American flag,” Shapiro wrote. “We are proud to join with the municipality of Tel Aviv-Yafo and its residents in celebrating LGBT Pride Week.”

This is not the first time the rainbow colors have flown over a U.S. embassy.  On May 15, it was flown over the Madrid embassy in Spain.  This is the new trend:  the values the Obama projects to the world as "American" are increasingly out of touch with Americans.


Yet, in our military, Bibles are banned, in the Air Force academy, Bible verses are erased from cadet white boards, while Christian bakers are sent for re-education for not bowing to gay marriage.  A president for all the people?  Not hardly.

It’s the US embassy, not that there is much difference. God will get the attention of the US and the children of Israel, using whatever means it takes to do so.

Why not the Baghdad embassy too?

It will give ISIS something to shoot at!

Hurray! We’re all so gay! Hurray!

Its the obama version of the middle finger to our israeli hosts and to everyone else with a moral compass.

It could’ve been worse by having the gay flag flying above Old Glory.

The fag flag is worthy only to be trampled into the mud and covered with excrement.

I think you might be wrong about that. The homosexual movement is as strong (and welcome) in Israel as it is here in the U.S. Sorry to disappoint any Freepers out there who actually believed that Israel is a nation governed by legitimate religious principles.

I cannot help but think that God notices.

Isaiah 59: 16 He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene; so his own arm worked salvation for him, and his own righteousness sustained him. 17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak. 18 According to what they have done, so will he repay wrath to his enemies and retribution to his foes; he will repay the islands their due.

It’s like the men of Sodom making known that they want to force their “knowledge” on God’s angels when they came into their city to save Lot and his family.

Why don’t we start a petition on change.org demanding that they do? A few hundred thousand signers and we’ll see how Riyadh or Kuwait City react when the rainbow flies over their city. (I can predict how that would end).

Very true. Israel is a duality, where religious freedom is very limited and the secular government should be the idol and envy of every liberal socialist progressive atheist in the world. Which more convinces me of God’s plan for the Jews and Israel than anything else, since Jew hatred among the liberal BDS crowd runs illogically rampant.

A shameless plug for a post I wrote about this:

Money Changers in the Temple: Tel Aviv redefines itself as Gay Capital of the World

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL (Catholic Online) - Just over a week ago, François Hollande signed a law which utterly destroyed the concept of marriage as it was known in France since medieval times. Under the law, two individuals of the same sex may now call themselves “married.”

Vincent Autin, 40, and Bruno Boileau, 29, were the first homosexual couple to get married under the new law. For their honeymoon, they visited Israel.

The media followed the couple as though they were celebrities. They were invited to the opening event of Tel Aviv’s Gay Pride Month. In honor of the event, the pillars on the Old City Hall were lit up in rainbow colors with trance music blaring from speakers.

Cities around the world are beginning to realize that there is a lot of money to be made catering to homosexuals. Now in a twist of irony, a city in the holiest land in the world, is tweaking its image to attract gays and lesbians from around the globe.

The defilement of the Old City Hall, and the appointment of two Frenchmen as honorary Gay Pride ambassadors, shows that the money changers have returned to the Temple. In fact, Tel Aviv is often referred to as the “global gay capital.”

The couple told reporters they were invited to the city, despite the fact that Israel itself retains as lawful the only true definition of marriage, which is between one man and one woman. Nonetheless, the city is cashing in on sweeping gains made by the small, yet extraordinarily militant and vocal, homosexual equivalency movement.

The attitude seems to be “if you can’t beat them, join them.” Certainly there is money to be made from catering to that segment.

Conversely, cities and states that resist the redefinition of marriage by a militant minority, risk being villainized and labeled as “intolerant.” This, for simply refusing others the moral excess of redefining words to mean whatever is convenient for themselves.
