Serious Question: Why do so many people hate Israel??
Me | June 2, 2010 | Me

Posted on 06/02/2010 12:05:35 PM PDT by i88schwartz

Seriously, I don't get it. I see so many anti-Israel and anti-Semitic posts on the internet. Why not love our only real ally in the middle east?

I have no idea what you’re talking about...and neither does anyone else.

Allow me to explain. "All in" is a poker expression. Look it up. "All out" would be fully out of the jewhater-closet. Both are fairly desperate, burn-the-bridges positions.

Did the light turn on for you?

There’s one more point on the US side. A Libertarian friend of mine(and Ron Paul supporter) is also anti-Israel. He claims they secretly run our government, financial institutions etc.

Because so many countries have been Socialized. That’s why.

Including modern Israel which was founded by socialists, hosts work communes, has free healthcare, high taxes, and a big bossy government with a lot of weapons and a lust for neighboring land. Many Muslims are politically conservative so it's not just socialism driving it, although leftist envy is a big part of it.

You were saying ...

Thanks. I didn’t mean to start this thread with an obvious question ... but recently I have been trying to figure it out.

The fact that you're "trying to figure it out" is also part of the implicit proof that it's "Satanically inspired" ...

The Bible makes it "explicitly clear" that it's Satanically inspired, as Satan is an angelic being who is very powerful and controls 1/3 of the angels (the "fallen angels") and he is doing all that he can to destroy God's plan -- which is "through Israel" ... as it's Israel who will be the salvation to the nations during that one-world government, in which they are the "head nation", and the Messiah of Israel rules over all, seated on the Throne of David, in Jerusalem.

Assuming you ask rhetorically, my best answer
is that Jesus was the Son of David. Thus
the enemy of God sought to destroy Israel in
order to thwart God’s plan to bring Messiah
through that geneology.

When that failed, the wrath of Satan was
poured out on Israel as a type of vengeance
against God for making “The Way” for all
mankind to be redeemed.

His tricks include a spirit of jealousy at their...

PROSPERITY:
Hitler blamed the Jews for the economic woes of Germany,

INTELLECT:
Brilliant Doctors and Scientists abound among the Jews.

FAVOR FROM GOD:
Jews are the only known scattered people to re-gather.
Jews have miraculously survived countless failed attempts
to render them extinct.

From the top of my head for now.

“All right, then. You said you know the answer. So enlighten us....”

No, the question to which you refer was “Why should we love Israel”. As for the second elephant in the living room question “Why some do people offer Israel their unconditional love” has pretty much been answered throughout this thread.

This is not your ordinary sin of envy. It is the head of the Marxist snake that herds and directs the evil of envy within human nature that is dangerous and needs to be cut off.

A Jew-hater, Israel-hater -- they're basically a "God-hater" ... because God takes Israel to be the head nation and the "ruling nation" over all other nations in the world, at the time of the one-world government -- during which time the Messiah of Israel rules from Israel.

If that's what he is (Jew-hater, Israel-hater) ... he's a "God-hater" ... because that's what the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is going to do wtih Israel (something I'm sure your friend will hate to hear ... LOL ...).

why people think we should “love” Israel?

Because God tells us to love and support Israel.

The Woman (Israel) is given the wings of a great eagle to fly to safety.

This could possibly be America airlifting out the Israelis.

But it says “A great eagle”, not “THE great eagle”. Significant?

Sarah Palin’s backing Israel...

I'm backing Israel too, but not because of what Saint Sarah says.

May I recommend a book series by Brock & Bodie Thoene
called “The Zion Chronicles”. Absolutely the best
unraveling of the issues concerning Israel from Abraham
to modern day terroristm.

Excellent reading.

Well researched.

Fascinating.

Make sure you have the time, because you won’t be
able to put the book down.

Some people do hate Israel, but I don’t think that’s what’s going on with many. Israel had much of the world’s sympathy during the Six Day War (1967) and the Yom Kippur War (1973).

But in the years following, the phenomenon of white guilt began to infect many Euros, Americans, Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, etc. Many groups that were minorities in the white majority nations began to acquire the much treasured and valuable victim status. And during the past thirty or so years, the so-called Palestinians also acquired victim status and the Israelis no longer looked like the tiny nation fighting for survival against many hostile nations.

Now Israel is a powerful nation that has won several military victories, and the Palestinians are an unsuccessful group that spends much of its time baiting Israel and seeking international sympathy. And sympathy for all recognized victim groups is a religious requirement for the left all over the world, especially the guilt-ridden, white leftist.

Plus, the rise of Islamic fundamentalism and hostility toward all things non-Muslim has also made things worse. It’s a combination of old antisemitism and the recently acquired victim status of the so-called Palestinians.

Because we love the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the Messiah of Israel, whom God has sent. And because God has chosen Israel as the head nation over all the other nations of the world, in His one-world government, in which the Messiah of Israel will be ruling, as the King of the world, over all the other nations of the world, from Israel, seated at the Throne of David, in Jerusalem. ... :-) ...

Of course, those who don't love the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, will not be likely to love Israel ... [although I imagine some will, anyway, because they see it as "popular" with some in their "circle of friendships" -- whether they really realize why or not...]

Exactly!

I have been reading the ORIGIN OF CHAOS...Part of the Dead Sea Scrolls..describes exactly what is written in the Holy Scriptures..

Before the consummation of the age, the whole place will shake with great thundering. Then the rulers will be sad, [...] their death.

The angels will mourn for their mankind, and the demons will weep over their seasons, and their mankind will wail and scream at their death. Then the age will begin, and they will be disturbed. Their kings will be intoxicated with the fiery sword, and they will wage war against one another, so that the earth is intoxicated with bloodshed. And the seas will be disturbed by those wars.

Then the sun will become dark, and the moon will cause its light to cease. The stars of the sky will cancel their circuits. And a great clap of thunder will come out of a great force that is above all the forces of chaos, where the firmament of the woman is situated. Having created the first product, she will put away the wise fire of intelligence and clothe herself with witless wrath.

Then she will pursue the gods of chaos, whom she created along with the prime parent. She will cast them down into the abyss. They will be obliterated because of their wickedness. For they will come to be like volcanoes and consume one another until they perish at the hand of the prime parent. When he has destroyed them, he will turn against himself and destroy himself until he ceases to exist.

And their heavens will fall one upon the next and their forces will be consumed by fire. Their eternal realms, too, will be overturned

And as long as we got good disagreements going on here, we might as well address another thing, the guys like Pat Buchannon who are “conservative”, in a sense.

Some go terribly askew when they address the fighting of socialism. (they talk about how Hitler was trying to fight communists,, how Patton should have joined Nazis to invade the USSR, etc) It leads them to strangely sympathize with Nazi Germany,,, blame Jews for communism,,, and to hate israel now.
