Here's a much smaller version of the same image I have:

"Bobby Fischer is going to trap them in a knight sacrifice ploy!"Given that Bobby Fischer is as much an anti-Semitic loony as anyone in the PLO, you may well be right.

If we allow it, there will come a day when these thugs try to erect a mosque over St. Peter's tomb.I have no doubt that, somewhere in the bowels of Tora Bora or Ramallah plans for the final mosque conversion exist. Gild the dome, move some pillars, carpet the steps and there you have it.
The lack of coverage in the US media, even when it happened, is chilling.

If we allow it If?
This happened a year and a half ago.
Have you heard the World complain? The USA?
If Israel now took it back, you would hear of Israel desecrating an Islamic site.
I'll go back to my original point. If you care about such things, include yourself among the poportionally infinitesimal Gentile righteous- although I don't know how you could be on FR for so long and not know.

Thanks

St. Peter's Tomb = the Vatican.
That hasn't been Islamized yet, at least to my knowledge...
As for how I missed this earlier, I don't know what to say. I never used to pay so much attention to the Israel threads. Human nature is selfish, I suppose, and I remained ignorant so long as I was unaffected.

I think that more and more non-Jews are beginning to care, and to see things more the way we do. The seizure of the Church of the Nativity by over 100 ball-less Pallies has brought home to millions of Christians the nature of these people. What an ideal opportunity to show the world a very similar (though worse) action regarding a Jewish site. Even those who are blind as bats will be able to make the connection. It would at least have some impact.

Part of the problem is that the world's press is slanted against Israel. Making it an uphill fight to get anything heard. Israel should be pounding the table day and night about the 800,000 Jews who were evicted from the Arab nations after 1948.
Agreed. However, despite the difficulties, Israel must make the effort to show the emptiness or the hypocracy in the Arab position. The worst that could happen is that things would go on as at present. However, some progress would be made. The effort would cost nothing, and potentially win some supporters and neutralize some opponents.
By the way, I have seen Regev. He is a very skilled debater and good on TV, very much like Bibi. He would, IMHO, be an ideal person to bring up these points. Bibi should also do it, regardless of whether anyone in the Israeli government likes it.

PLENTY of Gentiles would care if Jewish holy sites were desecrated. We revere the Hebrew leaders and prophets, too. You betcha! Plenty of fundamentalist Christians are as serious about this as any of the Jews you might know. This probably even applies to a lot of Christians who don't consider themselves to be fundamentalists,too.
As far as that goes,it even applies to non-believers such as me. These are historical and cultural sites,as well as religious sites. I don't want to see them harmed or destroyed.

There are hardly any Christians left in the Holy Land. Most have immigrated due to the bigotry shown to them by the Muslims. I believe that the number of Christians is now approximately 1-2% of the Palestian population, down from around 11-12%.

Call Vanna, buy a vowel.

Israel has now in its possession proof positive that Arafat, the Nobel Prize winner, who Zitti and Powell are rushing to meet, who Bush refuses to name a terrorist, is responsible for much of the terrorism. They are screaming it at the top of their lungs.
You see anyone listening?
To: cicero's_son
St. Peter's Tomb = the Vatican. That hasn't been Islamized yet, at least to my knowledge... Let us hope that statement will be true in 50 years from now.
Keep in mind that Jewish holy sites are also Christian holy sites. Our history is also Christian history, at least until the first century.
To: Ancesthntr
My short answer is Mark Regev needs to get out there and speak. The Germanic accents just don't fly here in the USA. Regev speaks with UK or Aussie accent. Plus is good, clear and aggressive.

Look at the support numbers in America for the Israelis versus those for Arafat.
We're watching and listening. The time will come for proper retribution.
To: dennisw
I agree. Though he's not as quick on his feet as Alon Pincus(sp?).
