Ted Cruz Gets Booed at "Middle East Christian Conference" - Video
The Daily Caller ^ | 9/10/14 | Tristyn Bloom

Posted on 09/10/2014 8:26:53 PM PDT by babylon_times

“Those who hate Israel hate America,” he continued, as the boos and calls for him to leave the stage got louder. “Those who hate Jews hate Christians. If those in this room will not recognize that, then my heart weeps. If you hate the Jewish people you are not reflecting the teachings of Christ. And the very same people who persecute and murder Christians right now, who crucify Christians, who behead children, are the very same people who target Jews for their faith, for the same reason.”

because I am an American who believes that my country, and the West in general, has, on too many occasions, negatively contributed to the conflicts that are unsettling the Middle East today.


This could have been prevented if the Middle East joined the present world in 1920 and used their oil to make themselves a beacon to Muslims everywhere. But since Muslims overall have a divine death wish, they don’t build to and for the future.

Death Wish = no place at Humanity’s table.

“If you will not stand with Israel and the Jews, then I will not stand with you. Good night, and God bless.”

Ted said it all tonight and spoke the truth.

Do not be confused because we are surrounded by fake Christians, fake Jews, fake Republicans, and fake patriots. People who claim to lead us but do not support G-D, our Constitution, and his Word. The truth exposes the real haters. Notice the hate they have for Sara Palin and now Ted Cruz. The true Christians will be hated in Jesus’ name.

The devil and his many antiChrist followers are out to misdirect, mislead, and confuse. Do not be deceived by their lies. Truly these are the latter days unfolding before us.

I just don’t understand the thinking of some of the Christians.
Christ was a Jew, he never renounced being a Jew, When the zombies come over the hill looking to kill the Christians in that part of the world, where is the safest place for them to run to? What are they booing?

Fear the wrath of a patient man.

Do not be misled by the Left who target our most clean and honorable leaders.

They know we are coming for them, and they are throwing grenades everywhere to Stop Our Message.

I believe Jesus was “booed” off many stages. Not comparing Ted to Jesus, only that the truth will often get you booed.

An irony lost on most Freepers is despite Cruz’s noble plea for the Jewish people

75-80% of American Jews will eventually if his star continues to rise...view Cruz with a hatred and derision they dare not publicly voice towards Muslims

Incredible if you think about it.

So in reality Cruz was playing to America’s culturally conservative Christians who defend Israel rather than liberal...and extremely influential Jewish America which loathes him

Is this Gods plan.....we help the Jews at the same time so many here hate us?

Its a bitter pill.

Anyhow....why is there no Sarnoff today to balance things in the media

“Fear the wrath of a patient man.”

The foundation of the Left is beginning to show cracks for it is built entirely on lies. And the lies are starting to contradict each other and become more obvious with each passing day. As more lies are added, the foundation (atheism) becomes unable to support the structure (liberalism) on which it is built. And soon the Left will agonize for truth but they will not find it because there is none in what they have believed. Then the structure will come tumbling down like the walls of Jericho.

This is the calm before the storm. Babylon has to fall before all hell breaks loose. Be patience, it’s coming.

I agree, that reads like the speech of a man who knew his audience in advance.

I think the Christians in the Middle East know more about their own situation than we do. These people are worried about their friends and families and Cruz started telling them about Israel.there is a time and a place for everything.Cruz was doing a jig at the ballet.

Unless evidence otherwise surfaces, my gut tells me Cruz went there in order to bring the anti-Semite cockroaches out of hiding, and succeeded. No honest person will, in future, be deceived by this outfit’s claim to be “Christian.” They are clearly a Muslim Brotherhood front.

So even if Cruz was justified with his remarks, game over.

Only in your dreams.

As a Christian of Arab origin, I can corroborate that the anti-Israel view is pervasive among Christians from the Middle East, even those who are professing Evangelicals.

I have spent time—in weekly Bible studies—with with Arabs from many countries, including Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt; Evangelical Protestants as well as “nominal” Christians from Orthodox and Maronite backgrounds. Most of them have adopted the same views of Israel and the West as are held by the majority Muslims in their respective countries. They may not be overtly virulent anti-semites, but if you ask them to support a pro-Israel group or political position they’d most likely give you the brush off.

In reply to your post, I would say it’s a combination of both, but the basis is hatred for the Jews.

The Palestinian Liberation Theology is the theology of an Anglican priest by the name of Dr. Naim Ateek, who in 1989 got together a committee of clergy and lay people “to implement, on a practical level” (from his purpose statement) his theology. He wanted to develop and share his theology with other Palestinian Christians. He soon founded and directed the Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Center in Jerusalem. “Friends of Sabeel” chapters subsequently begain opening in Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, and the United States.

Dr. Ateek is an Israeli citizen who was born in Beisan (Beit Shean). He professes to be a Christian, but his message is anti-Israel, anti-biblical, anti-truth. He recently spoke (this spring) at a conference sponsored by Friends of Sabeel North America (FOSNA), hosted by the American Friends Service Committee (Quakers) at the Friends Center in Philadelpha, Pa.

The following is reported by a Christian (and a Bible teacher) who attended the conference (source available on request):

Dr. Ateek said at the conference that the greatest support for Israel comes from evangelical Christians (82 percent) “because they all believe in God.” He adamantly argued that the most significant threat to ongoing peace initiatives in so-called Israel-Palestine is Christian Zionism that “blindly supports the nation of Israel.” He said, “Less religious people are more objective’ in the way they view the reality in “Israel-Palestine.”


For a full report (sources of information)of the conference AND of Palestinian Liberation Theology, FReepmail me.

This is one time, Jim, when the title truly injures a good man by being incomplete.

It really should be: Ted Cruz Gets Booed at ‘Middle East Christian Conference’ for Standing in Unwavering Support of Jews and Israel

Without that last part, this title is a lie
