A group of Middle Eastern Christians booed Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, off the stage after speaking in support of Israel at an event in Washington, D.C.

The event, sponsored by the group In Defense of Christians, was billed as a gathering of Middle Eastern Christian leaders.

They were trying to raise awareness about the threat to Arab minorities by the Islamic terrorists.

Cruz spoke about Christian solidarity with Israel and standing against terrorist groups like ISIS.

But some in the crowd were Palestinian Christian supporters of the Syrian government and even the terrorist group Hezbollah.

"Those who hate Israel hate America," Cruz began before being interrupted by jeering from the audience.

"My heart weeps that the men and women here will not stand in solidarity with Jews and Christians alike who are persecuted by radicals," he responded.

At one point, the moderator interrupted, saying, "Please, respect for dialogue. Respect. Please, we're in America."

Undeterred, Cruz said "If you will not stand with Israel and the Jews, then I will not stand with you. Thank you and God bless you."

You’re a senile old imbecile and a bigot.

Go drool on someone else.

Thank you! Troll.

Surely a moot point, as Iran’s ayatollahs don’t want to volunteer themselves as suicide bombers. Hell, deterrence has even come to work with Hezbollah. After the 2006 war with Israel, their commander Hassan Nasrallah said that had they anticipated the scale of Israel’s response, they wouldn’t have made the cross-border attack that precipitated the conflict. At the same time, the Islamic world is convinced that 0bama and Democrats, along with all Americans, are onesidedly for Israel, because controlled by Jewish money, in thrall to Jewish wiles, blah blah and the rest of the 57 varieties of anti-Semitic nonsense. But, perception of the threat from the US, not the actual threat, will govern the mullahs’ actions, and they perceive the US as unswervingly committed to Israel, be the adminstration that of Bush or 0bama.

You quoted not the Bible but your own hare-brained, unBiblical notions. Open the New Testament and read, ignoramus. And pay particular attention to St Paul.

Also, it was Romans who killed Jesus, not man’s sins generally, and certainly not Jews, but your cheap and pathetic attempt to bait me is duly noted.

[Whats-wrong-with-the-truth]

LOL... Troll.

What I said I quoted I cut and pasted from my online bible troll. ;-)

Gave you verses and version. Sorry but you are NOT a "Christian."

[Whats-wrong-with-the-truth]

Again... You are not a Christian. You are a troll. Everyone that knows Jesus Christ knows that He died because and for our sins, including yours. Just because the Romans were the weapon used to execute Jesus Christ does not mean your sins were not the reason He was killed. Your sins killed Jesus Christ. Not the Jews, Not the Romans, Not anything more than your worthless sins. ;-)

Troll away Jew hater and obama shill.

[eater-of-toast]

Good to see you’re a fake Christian and a liberal. It’s a tell-tale liberal trait to ooze about your love for blacks, Jews, whatever minority, and pat yourself on the back for said supposed love. Deep down you’re likely a closet anti-Semite, or you wouldn’t be oozing so much.

[eater-of-toast]

Indeed you are sorry. So sorry is your brain that you fancy sins not yet committed, by people who did not yet exist, killed Jesus, and not crucifixion carried out by Romans.

[mac_truck]

Wow...what a bizarre creature that is.

Well played.

[eater-of-toast]

Thanks! I hope that character washes his hands, having pulled so much out of his posterior.
