C-from-ECUSA, that fool from Virginia is nothing but a delusional, fang-less Tabbycat long past their prime and now spewing anti-Israel and anti-Semitic hate speech under the guise of ‘even handedness’ and ‘fairness’ and all of that crapola. They probably think Jimmy Carter is a swell guy.
Push them hard enough and maybe they’ll trot out some of that USS Liberty conspiratorial garbage.
They love to talk about the Founding Fathers and how we should just pull back to Fortress America and let the rest of the world go hang.
That’s an understandable sentiment, but it is nothing BUT sentiment, America is an integral part of the world community, and were it not for America, this planet would be in darkness right now, both politically, socially, spiritually and very possibly, *literally*.
America is engaged in world events, and our survival as a Nation depends not on emulating an ostrich and trying to hide our heads in the sand, but from facing and confronting the threat of Islamofascism just as we faced and destroyed the Nazis and their ilk in World War II.
America WON World War III without firing one missile or dropping one nuke, and the Soviet Union’s demise proves it.
We are now engaged in World War IV, and we better wake the Hell up and realize that our Muslim enemies have no intention of surrendering, no intention of negotiating, no intention of ‘peaceful coexistence’, and this is a fight to the death, and we better damn well win it or the life expectancy of human history will be measured in decades following the collapse of the West.
Israel is our ally, the only true democracy in the Middle East (Iraq is still too new as a liberated country to know if their experiment in democracy is going to work), and we need to stand shoulder to shoulder with every Israeli and tell our mutual Islamic foes that if they want to be martyrs and go meet their 72 virgins and a buffet table, that we’ll manufacture, deploy and fire as many bloody bullets dipped in pork fat at their pathetic pedophile-inspired ‘warriors’ as we can, and we will be sure they reach their eternal ‘reward’.
The weak sisters and ostriches can just go hide under their beds until the war is either won, or until the Muslim hordes pull them out from their hiding places and hack their heads off as they did to Nick Berg.
Hi mkjessup,
Sadly, there are those people who come on this forum and give Christians and Virginians a bad name. If they want to have their supercessionism, that is their freedom of choice. All I am is a Christian that has loved Israel for most of my life, regadless of which denomination I’ve ben in, and has believed that God did not toss them aside or revoke His Convenant promises to them. If He had done so, how could I, as a Christian, trust in the promises of the New Testament. I let everyone else argue about supercessionism vs. dispensationalism, etc., etc. I simply support Israel and the Jewish people because God has never stopped loving them and because the One I believe is the promised Messiah chose to be born a Jewish boy of a Jewish woman and foster father in the land of Israel some 2000 years ago. And everyone of the apostles that brought the Gospel to the Gentiles were Jewish.
If God had indeed decided to be through with them, they would long ago have disappeared, assimilated into other peoples. Where are the ancient Assyrians, Ammonites, etc. today? Gone. If the Lord was through with Israel and the Jewish people, then why were they preserved in spite of the odds, so many evil persecutions, etc.? Why did the Lord permit the nation of Israel to be re-established, even though most of the founders were not religious? Why has He permitted Israel to stand against great odds for 60 years? The only answer is that He still loves them, they are a part of His Plan in some way which we trust Him on in the Virtue of Faith; He is not finished with them, just as He is not finished with us Christians, He cherishes them, and so forth.
Granted, my views are that of a Christian, so I know that some of what I’ve said would not be agreed with by my Jewish friends. No matter. Push come to shove, I will stand by what I have believed and held dear for most of my life, and if in some people’s eyes, that means I may fry in Hell...well, if I have to choose between some of my “christian brothers and sisters” or the Almighty, then I will take my chances with the Almighty.
To my Jewish friends, I am sorry that there are some “christians” who seem to relish coming on this forum every so often to make in the fountain and persist in doing so even after numerous people have over and over made clear that their stuff is not appreciated or welcome. Not all of us are like that. Some people, sadly, seem to go out of their way to give Christians a bad name when there is no call to do so. Some people just plain didn’t have any raising from their mothers and fathers.
