BESET by questions about the future of Jerusalem in talks with the Palestinians, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin reached for the Bible on Wednesday to stake out the Jewish state's disputed claim on the city.
Netanyahu told a parliamentary session commemorating Israel's capture of East Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 war that "Jerusalem" and its alternative Hebrew name "Zion" appear 850 times in the Old Testament, Judaism's core canon.
"As to how many times Jerusalem is mentioned in the holy scriptures of other faiths, I recommend you check," he said.

That one is a definite contender for the Hypocrisy Hall of Infamy.
The list, ping

Liberals in America cannot stand Bibi because he is the antithesis of what they are. He is a strong man who will defend Israel’s right to exist and will not sell his soul to the father of lies like the typical liberal has done. Perhaps that’s whay so many American Jews vote consistently for the criminal enterprise party ...
Now Bibi's really done it. He's clinging to his guns and his Bible, that outta really tick Obama and his followers off.
Why is it that the same Libs who claim to want to protect everyone from themselves and everything are the same ones who protest any form of self-defense?
your point?
Playin the bible card, eh?
I did not know that Zion was an alternative name for Jerusalem. Silly me, I thought it was a mountain.
Never mind the one about the American President, the evil Booosh reading “My Pet Goat” as the holiest of American imperialist office towers burned and crashed as an expression of the holy will of ah-LAH
all jokes aside,
the Bible REALLY does piss off libs.
There’s something about the Word of God that exudes Truth,
and that Truth refutes everything they believe in.
They're like school yard bullies that periodically need to be taken to the woodshed by the West.
Call their bluff, Islam is completely compromised. Other than a few small sacrifices, it gives license for it's prisioners to abdicate all individual responsibility.
Without islam the ME would be the world leader in every societal measure of success.
Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erekat said: "I find it very distasteful this use of religion to incite hatred and fear." use of religion to incite hatred and fear."
Excuse me that's how the muslim world works, by "use of religion to incite hatred and fear."
Jerusalem is on a mountain.
He sounds like a good rabbi!
That what I love about Bibi telling like it is
There is Spanish soap on Telumundo called El Clon if you understand Spanish they really nail treatment of women in this soap does talk about cloning and drug trafficing it is good soap
CG in one that photo Bibi asking camera are you looking me like Robert Di nero Character in Taxi Driver LOL!
Bibi’s son Avner took 1st in the National Bible Quiz and 3rd in the International Bible Quiz. Hopefully this is rubbing off on Bibi.
The way that IDF soldier looks at Bibi says mountains about the esteem he holds for the troops.
May the Lord save and protect Bibi, and the Men of the West on all the fronts where they serve.
