Gorka, President-elect Donald Trump's pick as senior director for counterterrorism, made several statements in favor of Israel recently, including that "Palestine" doesn't exist and that IDF generals should forget about diplomacy and focus on defeating terrorists militarily. Gorka, who had served as deputy assistant to Trump from January to August 2017 during Trump's first term in office, broached the issue of Palestine in an interview on Nov. 16 with a host for RT, a Russian state-controlled international news television network. "Why can't you talk about genocide[sic] in Gaza? And is that the same with all of the Trump team?" the host of an RT talk show asked Gorka, who responded, "Because there isn't any genocide in Gaza. There is no such thing as Palestine." Gorka added that the "etymology of the word Palestinian" is a "name invented by the Roman Empire to insult Jews." The host informed Gorka that "the rest of the world disagrees with you." Gorka replied, "I'm glad you talk for the rest of the world." The host, Afshin Rattansi, cited the United Nation's support for Palestinians, launching Gorka on a monologue about the international body. "The United Nations that sends people in blue helmets to rape little girls in Africa," he said. "Why did I not listen to the United Nations? What a clown show, really. As far as I'm concerned, the United Nations could be pushed into the Hudson, OK? What have they done to solve anything of late except create child prostitution rackets in Africa?" U.N. troops and officials in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, Sri Lanka, and Haiti have been accused of hundreds of cases of sexual abuse, including against minors, over the past 20 years..

The Hashemite king of Jordan gave them refuge in the late 60’s and lived to regret it. They tried to overthrow his government so he kicked them out. But only after having killed about 5,000 of them. The “palestinians” have a long history of sh*tting their nests.

You’d have to move it over from the East Side.
There’s never been a state of Palestine or Palestinian people. It’s all made up. Been saying that for years and can easily be verified doing a little research.

Christians do not all agree on scripture's interpretation of end-time events. Rather than focus on the 'Mark of the Beast coming', let me suggest we focus on "Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords is coming." He is coming sooner than we think. Why? Because each of us is living in the last generation. That's right. You and I and every human being get one lifetime and your lifetime is the last generation for you.
End time theology is intriguing and interesting. It sells many books and causes great debate. I have friends who do nothing but talk and preach about the anti-Christ. I grew up reading Hal Lindsey's “Late Great Planet Earth”, published in 1970 and selling millions of copies. It was an intriguing read but missed the mark in many ways.
Here are some of Hal's misses:
1. The Rapture by 1981
2. The Rise of a One-World Government by the end of the 20th century, led by the Antichrist.
3. The Year 2000 Crisis. Lindsey warned about significant prophetic events occurring around the year 2000 due to fears surrounding Y2K and its implications for society.
4. Increased Natural Disasters as Signs of End Times. While natural disasters have continued to occur, they have not aligned with his specific timeline or intensity predictions.
5. Economic Collapse and Global Turmoil. Various economic downturns have occurred since then; however, none have resulted in a total collapse as foreseen by Lindsey.
6. Specific Dates for Events Related to Israel’s Statehood. Lindsey made various predictions regarding specific dates tied to Israel’s statehood (1948) and subsequent events he believed would lead directly into end-time scenarios. Many of his timelines did not materialize as he suggested they would.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
Through death into life everlasting
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion—
For more than conqu’rors we are!
His Word shall not fail you—He promised;
Believe Him, and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!
Our focus is Christ!
Palestine refers to the Mediterranean coastal portion of The Fertile Crescent aka The Levant.
Revelation 19:10
A good number of Christians need a kick in the behind to get out there and keep sharing God’s Word
I WILL DO what I was called to do. Others have different ministries. I bid them Godspeed.
God bless
(for the thread)
Revelation 19:10
King James Version
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

“What have they done to solve anything of late except create child prostitution rackets in Africa?”
As if cholera outbreaks in Haiti are merely chopped liver...
Going to miss Dr. G’s daily radio show when he moves up to the White House. The main offering to replace that insufferable blabbermouth Hannity.
IIRC, Yasir Arafat, who popularized the term 'Palestinian' was a Soviet KGB agent of influence.
Ironic, isn't it, that Gorka was being interviewed by an RT (Russian state media) 'journalist'.
The East River is closer.
Totally wrong. The East River is much closer. There is no need to cart that pile of scum all the way cross town to the Hudson.
Thank you...I have old books which refer to Palestine....so it is just a geographic area
