But when? Where? Why not the 30's and 40's? Why now? What's the difference?

These animals have no compassion for their own people, including their own children.....why to you think they would have any for their prisoners?

We are dealing with moslims who want to see the end of not just Israel, but the civilized world.

You're asking me? LOL

Sam, all I'm saying is that as a Christian I do believe in God, do believe He has a plan and that Christ will come again as promised.

It's really none of our business as to how God unfolds His plan. That's God's business and He'll attend to it in His own perfect time and way.

which means asking France to defend Israel, sort of like asking Martin Bormann to defend Israel Pretty much nailed it with this comment, too. Of all of the countries in the EU the biggest anti-Semite is the one that chooses to insert itself into this. What a friggin' joke. Can we nuke France, please?

go to yourarmstoisrael.com. Click on Sermons, then read thethird sermon about the Beast. It's a long read but very very enlightening and scary.

Why don't the Israelis publish photos of the atrocities on a web site? Then talk about the castration, etc., long and loud??? NO ONE KNOWS!

That's a fair answer. I accept that. Like I said, I'm not trying to debate the issue, just express some of my frustration. Thanks for answering me.

He certainly does! The word "barbarian" in the title is apt. It comes from the Greek word meaning "stranger" - i.e. a stranger to civilization. That word also reminds me of a terrific article by Theodore Dalrymple that I can send you later if you want. It explains remarkably and prophetically what is happening right NOW in the UN!

Actually, the scriptures say it will get much worse than this for Israel, before it gets better.


Time will tell.

Judging the righteousness of God, is an impossible task from the standpoint of being his children. Just like our own judgment of parents when we were children. We might have made statemets such as "I hate you", or that's not fair" etc, but as we grew older we began to understand what our poor parents were up against. In the case of God, I'd like to think that he might need some evidence of wrong doing in order to properly and legally judge the perpetrators of things he has more than suggested we not engage in.

If God were to intervene at every misstep of man, we would be living in the leftist hell called Nirvana, or Utopia, without a mind of our own, prisonors in the Devils world where liberty of man is a dream unatainable. No, the righteous God has it right, as he did not intervene in the death of his own son, so he chooses to allow man his liberty to do as he wishes for good or evil, that he might judge a righteous judgment, that not one of us will be able to say life isn't fair.

Good point. But it sort of argues against any hope of "divine intervention", doesn't it?
