I would like to apologize in advance if this post comes off as angry. But I’m angry. I’m angry at all this unfair bloodshed and I’m angry at feeling betrayed by fellow Christians. I’m angry at ignorance. I’m angry at propaganda that shoves misconstrued realities down peoples’ throats.
I am aware that most of the Christians I know are westernized, and thus, like myself, have been raised with Zionistic, anti-Islamic viewpoints. But I hope that if nothing else, then through this blog post you would at least consider the other side: there are Christians who love Jesus as much as you do, they’re Palestinian, and they can’t support what Israel is doing.
I’m not an expert on this topic, and I don’t claim to have an expert understanding of it. All I have is personal experience, personal study, and personal conviction. I really appreciate you taking the time to hear me out.
I’d like to jog your memory for a brief moment. Would that be alright?

“Israel has no right to terrorize and take the lives of hundreds and hundreds of innocent Palestinians under the guise of “defending themselves against Hamas.” That is baloney, it doesn’t make sense, and nobody with a working brain can really fall for that.”
Pure idiocy. Muslims (whether fatah, hamas or some other terrorist groups) have been attacking and killing Israeli civilians for at least 50 YEARS. The specific group doesnt matter, the point is that Israeli attacks have been DEFENSIVE in response to Muslim offensive attacks. Want to stop the killing, all muslims have to do is stop attacking. It’s the Muslims who have violated EVERY peace agreement. Muslims are digging tunnels into Israel not the other way around. Palestinians are the ones who say that ALL Israelis are legitimate targets. This anti Israel stuff is insanity.
isis is giving an education to those attempting to remain Christian in northern and western Iraq and northern Syria. This author, poor girl, has given support to people like isis / al quaeda and when her time comes to be one of the counted she will instead have been calculated and convicted in the ways of the Beast. Another lost soul is this authors fate.
Got that. It’s just that hearing that some Arabs worship as Christians might make people here think, “Oh, well, at least they’re not fanatical Islamic jihadis!”
Fact is, majority Christian towns like Nazareth & Bethlehem have been mostly depopulated of their non-Muslims.
A lot of “Christians” at one time thought that the Nazis were the bees knees.
A miracle that the Christians shrines in the mentioned places still stand.
Overlooked is the fact the American evangelical Christianity has, miraculously, mostly shunned the Jew-hate that has traditionally characterized older forms of Christianity, especially those from the Middle East.
As a “Christian” she should be more outraged that “moderate” Saudi Arabia doesn’t allow Christian churches to be built.
ISIS is destroying MOSQUES they don’t like!
Christian shrines in the ISIS `caliphate’ will soon be obliterated just like the Bamayan Buddhas, and for the same reason.
And by the same bloody Mohammedan savages!
Yep, they just destroyed a shrine to the prophet Jonah.
Did not read all of this but noticed she is not as critical of muslims. I support Israel over them any day. Israel had been very patient but enough is enough.
You can find "Peleset" or "Peleshet" and other similar names in Egyptian, Hebrew, and Greek going back centuries before the Roman conquest and expulsion.
God is for all humans on EARTH, be they Christians, Jews and Muslims, Atheists, Agnostics, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.,. All they have to do is open their hearts and souls to God. No human being is without the possibility of redemption. It is there for all mankind.
Warfare is another matter. Autonomous nations have the right to defend against attacks and invasions.
But God loves no nation and no people more than another. We humans are all children of God; some have just not found their way home. Sadly, some might never do so.
What is her reaction to Christians being murdered by Moslems all over the world? Silence, I expect.
No, it is not stupidity — what you’re seeing is the evil taqiyyah face of Islam.
Get used to it.
there are Christians who love Jesus as much as you do, they’re Palestinian, and they can’t support what Israel is doing.
Most Christians would surely support a peoples right to defend themselves. I know I do. Here is what the Palestinians need to do. Stop their terrorist from bombing Israel. That stops so does everything else.
The muslims have a word for the lying to the infidels in order to lure them into a killing trap.
What does she care as long as it is not her the Muslims kill? At least not yet. I think her dhimmi opinion is similar to that of someone who suffers from Stockholm Syndrome.
I haven’t read the whole thread or gone to the site, but has she expressed an opinion about ISIS yet?
Don't forget that worderfully unbiased news reporter Helen Thomas
