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?

Well, the neighborhood bully, he’s just one man,
His enemies say he’s on their land.
They got him outnumbered about a million to one,
He got no place to escape to, no place to run.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully just lives to survive,
He’s criticized and condemned for being alive.
He’s not supposed to fight back, he’s supposed to have thick skin,
He’s supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully been driven out of every land,
He’s wandered the earth an exiled man.
Seen his family scattered, his people hounded and torn,
He’s always on trial for just being born.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, he knocked out a lynch mob, he was criticized,
Old women condemned him, said he should apologize.
Then he destroyed a bomb factory, nobody was glad.
The bombs were meant for him.
He was supposed to feel bad.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim
That he’ll live by the rules that the world makes for him,
‘Cause there’s a noose at his neck and a gun at his back
And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

He got no allies to really speak of.
What he gets he must pay for, he don’t get it out of love.
He buys obsolete weapons and he won’t be denied
But no one sends flesh and blood to fight by his side.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, he’s surrounded by pacifists who all want peace,
They pray for it nightly that the bloodshed must cease.
Now, they wouldn’t hurt a fly.
To hurt one they would weep.
They lay and they wait for this bully to fall asleep.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Every empire that’s enslaved him is gone,
Egypt and Rome, even the great Babylon.
He’s made a garden of paradise in the desert sand,
In bed with nobody, under no one’s command.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Now his holiest books have been trampled upon,
No contract he signed was worth what it was written on.
He took the crumbs of the world and he turned it into wealth,
Took sickness and disease and he turned it into health.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

What’s anybody indebted to him for?
Nothin’, they say.
He just likes to cause war.
Pride and prejudice and superstition indeed,
They wait for this bully like a dog waits to feed.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

What has he done to wear so many scars?
Does he change the course of rivers?
Does he pollute the moon and stars?
Neighborhood bully, standing on the hill,
Running out the clock, time standing still,
Neighborhood bully.

Because God tells us to love and support Israel.

God tells us to love everyone. But where in the Bible did you read we are commanded to "support Israel"?

ST, aren’t you the one of the biggest Palin supporters on this site? based on what has been psoted on this thread, I have a question;

Do you believe Palin has been chosen by God to lead this nation and ultimately world at this specific point in time and history?

Actually, I don’t expect you to answer as I have asked it dozens of times to the most ardent Palin supporters and always end up with “crickets”.

It’s not that you don’t have an answer, it’s that the answer would be far too revealing.

Exactly right! The Jews has survived when by all human logic they should have not..

Greek Mythology, The Roman Empire, Communism, Nazisim,
all have FAILED...The USA was a blessing from Israel..

We embraced the Values of Judeo Christian Principles and GOD Blessed us...

What do we have now?? A Peverted Immoral Government a world spiraling out of control and a Spirt of the Antichrist that clouds the earth....

WHY DOES THE WORLD HATE ISRAEL AND THE JEWS?

1. GOD SAID THEY WOULD.

2. Satan hates anything God loves—particularly the seed of God’s Buddy Abraham—the characters God chose as HIS SPECIALLY TREASURED ONES.

3. REBELLION AND IDOLATRY ARE EPIDEMIC IN THE WORLD, which means, essentially that satan is in charge of those folks giving in much to such sins.

4. The god of this world—satan—still has tons of influence—particularly in the evil halls of geopolitical power.

5. He certainly has charge of the media.

6. He has been millenia in setting the stage for his last flash in the pan desperate attempts to get as many humans to go to hell with him as possible. He’s pretty good at being infinitely bad. He’s pretty good in his role as satan.

You were saying ...

They don't hate Israel per se. They hate Jews.

I would disagree there and say that it's "both" ...

I say that because it's both the Jews -- and -- the "nation of Israel" -- that God says He will have "before Him" forevermore ...

Thus, to destroy "Israel" as a nation, is seen as a way to destroy the "promises of God" and thus, His "legitimacy" in the eyes of the world, in that He can't even keep His promises ...

BUT, God does say that Israel will be a "nation" before Him forevermore... and thus it's the "nation" and the "Jews" who are hated ...

The left hates Israel, just as it hates the US. The left hates successful capitalists and see them as the oppressors of the world. The left has joined forces with the Islamo-fascists under the premise that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The Islamo-fascists are simply a convenient victim group, who are more than willing to fight against Western capitalists. Think about, the left doesn’t even have to do any community agitating to get the Muzzies to wage jihad, against the west and Israel.

Add that to the fact that religious Jews are like Christians, they answer to a higher power than the state and they see their destiny as inextricably linked to obeying God, not man.

This is not your ordinary sin of envy.

I disagree.

Thou shalt not covet is one of the big ten for a reason.

It is a powerful emotion, easy to misuse, is bi directional and EVERYBODY carries it ALWAYS.

I can avoid dope, alcohol, nicotine, but I cannot avoid envy, I must control it, or it will control me, and the Marxists have noticed.

Your assumptions are brazenly wrong in a list of ways.

You have likely never examined how the vast majority . . . what . . . IIRC 75% or more of the NOBEL and similar awards have gone to . . .

drum roll . . .

descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Israel has been an incredibly faithful and helpful agent for America for decades in a host of nitty gritty life and death ways. More so than Britain or even Canada or Australia.

I stayed within your criteria.

I suspect I’ll still get dissed wholesale.

No matter, God is the only score-keeper worth my caring greatly about.

I have no problem with Israeli Jews. It’s the American jews who put people like Hillary and Obama in office that piss me off.

I think more people hate the USA government depending on who is President.

People tend to forget....Gentiles would have no clue about GOD..They knew about all kinds of *False GOD’s* as Satan and his Fallen Angels kicked out of the Divine Realm were here.....

However Gentiles did not know of the GOD of Israel who is *Prime Creator* it was the *Jews* who brought the Christ to Gentile Nations....They sacraficed their lives to bring this message...
ABRAHAM-JEW
JACOB-JEW
MOSES-JEW
Matthew-JEW
Mark-JEW
Saul/Paul-JEW
Mary-JEW
Thomas-JEW

JESUS CHRIST-JEW!

Seems like a no-brainer why we should support the Jews and Israel!
