BINGO! . . . I read the title of this thread, pondered briefly the source and then settled on "Arutz Sheva" as the most likely propigator of the notion that GOD bestowed OWNERSHIP . . . BINGO . . . Arutz Sheva.

It is a battle, for the most part, between those of faith who believe the promises G-d made to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and those who, for whatever reasons, would prefer that Israel (i.e., the Jews) did not live on the land bordered by the Nile and Euphrates Rivers and the Mediterranean Sea and the wilderness of Jordan.

Religions are fine things to practice but bloody things to implement.

There is little separation between the blasphemy of Mohammed Atta and the blasphemy of Arutz Sheva.

There is little separation between the blasphemy of Mohammed Atta and the blasphemy of Arutz Sheva.

Please tell me you didn't just say that.

[The Mayor]

Bump for later read..

[Phil V.]

I didn't say that.

I posted that.

[Mr. Mojo]

You're insane.

[Phil V.]

No.

I'm looking at the end product of implementing and securing the lands defined as Israel within this article.

To be a proponent of of securing the boundaries defined in this article as Israeli boundaries IS insane.

[D Rider]

My particular favorite, at this time, is Ezekial 36. Which is a prophecy addressed to the mountains of Israel. Read it, then take a look at a topo map. Then compare it to a map that shows the west bank.

...Can you say fireworks?

[SJackson]

You know perfectly well no political party in Israel with enough support (actually none) proposes annexation of everything from

Nile and Euphrates Rivers and the Mediterranean Sea and the wilderness of Jordan. No party party with meaningful support supports annexation to the Jordan river and expulsion of the arab population, as you frequently imply.

Your comment is pure propaganda.

[D Rider]

The boundary's in this post have never been under any sort of control by Israel, with the exception of possibly Solomon.

One common belief is that it will take the establishent of the messianic kingdom for Israel to achieve those boundarys. At which point, who will argue with G_d?

[Phil V.]

You know perfectly well no political party in Israel with enough support (actually none) proposes annexation . . .

Correct.

I have in no way suggested or implied that Arutz Shiva speaks for the government of Israel. But I have, in short, characterized Arutz Shiva's article as blasphemous.

[Phil V.]

Shiva

Sheva

You characterize a great many things as "blasphemous" even then they in fact are not so.

Disagreeing with Phil Almighty's leftist ideology is not blasphemy, but Phil setting himself higher than G-D is.

"At which point, who will argue with G_d?"


That's an easy one - ACLU will be in court against Him in a New Yawk moment.

If spectators are allowed, I'd like to be there when the Defendant opens.

Hmmm - let me see if I have understood this correctly: G-d has given half of Egypt and Iraq, all of Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon, and presumably a third of Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and all of Kuwait, to the Jewish people, and all of the current inhabitants of these places as well as all members of non-Jewish religions, atheists, and agnostics of the world are supposed accede to this divine land grant?

[Nix 2]

Ain't ya never seen a map of original Israel, before civil war? Nope. Didn't think so. But Philly swears he has the answer, the one and only answer, to something about which he remains, (since I've known him,)utterly ignorant and unabashedly clueless. But he never lets that stop him....
