The Israeli people and government are great friends to Christians. On the other hand, there’s small cult of disgusting brainwashed American Jewish traitors in BDS and other movements who want to see the Iraeli state destroyed.

These anti-semitic traitors were in full view at Harvard this week.

Indeed.

Israel is also the only safe state for mideast Bahai, Buddhists, etc. Even atheists.

And considering the level of chaos in Muslim countries, the only safe state for mideast Muslims, too.

Every group of people contains a subset of what are technically known as “a**holes.” That said, IIRC some of worst offenders are the Neturei Karta, who are so anti-Zionist that they collaborate with Holocaust deniers and Iran.

They’re religious fanatics - they think the state of Israel is illegitimate because it wasn’t founded by the Messiah. I think of them as the Jewish branch of the Westboro Baptist Church.
