Trump Won't Choose Sides Between Israel and Palestine
Conservative Review ^ | 2/18/16 | CRWire

Posted on 02/18/2016 9:02:37 AM PST by lormand

GOP front-runner Donald Trump refused to pick sides in the conflict between Israel and Palestine in last night’s town hall on MSNBC.

“I don’t want to get into it,” he told moderators Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.

“If I win, I don’t want to be in a position where I’m saying to you [my choice] and the other side now says, ‘We don’t want Trump involved…let me be sort of a neutral guy,” said the billionaire businessman.

Trump described the Middle Eastern struggle as the “toughest deal in the world right now to make.”

“A lot of people say an agreement can’t be made, which is OK, sometimes agreements can’t be made [and they are] not good. I will give it one hell of a shot. I would say if you can do that deal, you can do any deal.” Trump cited the hatred between Israelis and Palestinians as the biggest obstacle to peace.

I do not see the fill in the blank support for Cruz like for Obama and Trump. I see quotes and repeats of hs talking points with the reasoning behind them because Cruz includes that information.

In the converse Trump puts out only highlights and includes nothing of substance. This thread alone shows that. I dont need or want people telling me what they think Trump is thinking or is going to do. I want to hear it from Trump.

Trump is gonna build a wall and make Mexico pay... That is totally Horse Manure. We are broke, living on Chinese money and the Chinese market just cratered. Mexico is almost as broke as us and there is no way in hell they will build our wall for us, illegals sending money home is the only thing floating their boat.

Obama is going to stop the oceans from rising, bring in world peace.

Trump is going to build the wall and fix America.

Where is the method or plan in the above? Its all empty promises.

Cruz says he will enforce Constitutional law. That actually is a solution to world peace, the budget by throttling corruption. Flat tax, welfare reform, enforcing immigration law, all solutions.

I really should not have to spell this all out, it is painfully obvious.

Levin has really gone over the edge. He outright lies and doesn’t bat an eye over it any more. BOUGHT and paid for.

Have everyone noticed that anyone speaking negative against Trump is a LIAR and has sold their soul to the devil

Phewwwwww. These Trumpanzees are swimming in fish droppings.

My point:
Galatians 5
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

Nelson, Thomas (2009-02-18). Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (p. 1133). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition.

Matthew 7

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
16 “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?
17 “Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
18 “A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.
19 “Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20 “Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”

Cruz fought hard with integrity For years keeping the promises he made to those who put him into power. You call that hot air.

Trump served only himself by bribery, you call that hedging your bets.

There is no indication that cruise ever served special interests lots of cases where he fought against the special interests. planned Parenthood is the Abortion industry darling.

Donald Trump in the same time frame only served himself to enrich himself by hook (frivilous lawsuits) or crook (bribery or bankruptcy) he’s borrowed 1000 times more than cruise ever has from many banks in his lifetime yet you expect Donald Trump serves no special interests. Cruz paid back his loan, has Donald? Can Cruze do his job without loans? Can Donald Trump be a real estate mogul without loans? Just who is owned by the banks?

You are totally unrealistic and hypocritical. I get that you want to worship Donald Trump, go ahead worship him I don’t care. He deserves followers like you, matter of fact he depends on not being held accountable.

Just like Obama.

You know what I call that? Ignoring reality to worship your hero. You are a fool just like the idiots that voted for Obama. Don’t forget orange is the new black!

Who gives a rip what you think he meant, it is what he says and his proclivity to keep his word and not change his mind later that counts. What Trump “means” is wishful thinking by the sheep.

That is because integrity is important to some people, not winning at any cost. I dont want to win the battle by selecting someone who will loose the war. Not when my freedom and country is at stake.

Tump loves to negotiate. He will negotiate when there is nothing to negotiate.

So Trump is meaner to Cruz than Cruz is to Trump?

Will you not I assume absentee vote in November given how this is trending?

YOU are a guest in Jim's house. How rude to enter someone's house and then complain that everything isn't perfect for you.

If you don't like it, leave.

You are one lazy guy---your post wasn't that long, and it would not have taken long to simply go in and change the quotes and commas and dashes or whatever was a problem instead of expecting other people to do it for you.

You people, those like you, PRESUME JR doesn't know or care about this problem. You speak to JR totally disrespectfully.

Please go where the other Cruzers go. Ask around and Cruzers will tell you where it is. I know but i'm not telling.

Fine, but what is the relationship to the previous post?

There are thousands of verses in the Bible, but they do not all make the same points.

Two months ago Israel told Trump they didn’t want him visiting Israel. Let wealthy American Jews support Israel, I’m not interested any longer.

Were that true, you wouldn't be supporting Israel, but it's not. Israel has indicated all candidates from both parties are welcome, and Netanyahu will meet with any of them. Trump threw a hissy fit because Netanyahu disagreed with his statements on travel for Muslims, and restated his willingness to meet with Trump. Donald decided he wouldn't go. The man appears not to tolerate disagreement.

Plenty of threads on it. Now that you know, do you support Israel and reject Trump?

Its impossible to walk in the spirit while walking in falsehood.

Certainly your false attacks on Yeshua’s servant have you walking in “another” spirit.
