Thanks for this public questioning on this thread. I was prepared to query the individual on these matters in a much, much less polite manner.

Christian Supporters of Israel List at Free Republic
Humph. For what reason? What have I said that's anti-Israel?
Frankly, I'm a strong supporter of Israel's hard-won Right to Exist from the 1917 Balfour Declaration onwards; and in my opinion, based on the original "Jewish Palestine" Mandate, the Israelis should be entitled to keep Judea and Samaria (the so-called "West Bank"); the Palestinians there should either move to their natural country, Jordan (i.e., "Arab Palestine"), or else peacefully accept Israeli governance.
The Arabs have no Right to dispute Israel's legitimacy, as they originally agreed to allow the Jews a "National Home" in Palestine after the Ottoman Empire was driven out.
Might I be included on the "Christian Supporters of Israel List"? While reserving that I hope that the Israeli Government will freely permit Christian proselytizing and Jews for Jesus missions in Israel as well as equal rights for Messianic Jews, I otherwise do enjoy reading Christian News articles supportive of Israel and would appreciate any pings to such articles.
Or does one have to subscribe to some particular school of "Left Behind"-style Dispensationalist Prophetic flimflammery, in order to be considered a "Christian Supporter of Israel"?
