Just posted the headline...nothing further

Watching CNN is like the Western Al Jazeera..right now 'Indside the Mind of A Suicide Bober-Why are they so mad at us'

Many Christians have been asleep, I know that is no excuse, but ONCE WE/THEY ARE AWAKE, LOOK OUT!!!!

Millions of us have been watching very earnestly every day the events in Eretz Yisroel, and many Jews also have been asleep. The latter is why they did not destroy the mosques and rebuild the Temple Mount in 1967.

[Sabramerican]

Is it essential for you whether a Jew named Jesus ever walked the Temple in Jerusalem. The Arabs will tell you there was never a Temple. Jews find that offensive. So do some, but not enough, Christians.

[ward_of_the_state]

Let the spin begin!

[Lent]

I ask again... if this was 120 armed jews or americans storming into Mecca and holding their clerics hostage, wanna bet how big that story would be hyped?

Exactly. Or any mosque for that matter. Imagine smashing the Islamic junk on the Temple Mount or shooting it up? The whining filthy cry-babies would be shedding crocodile tears non-stop.

[wardaddy]

Good point but different parameters. The Wailing Wall is Israeli (hence mostly Jewish) turf. The West Bank is not Christian turf anymore than the eastern Orthodox holy sites in Kosovo were. I wish they were. Let's move all the persecuted whites from SA or ZIM to the West Bank...they're good at agriculture and they're Christian...just a thought.

Easier solution...Israel re-occupies the territories and deports the Palis back to their Hashemite kin.

Do they explain why they're increasing now i.e., Arafats alliance with Saddam and Iran? Do they mention mental illness, or the cash payouts to the families?

[wheezer]

They are atheists or have at mimimum bought into the humanist agenda. There is great pain in the holy lands and they cannot see this is religious war? Much much more than a simple war between Israelis and Arabs!

I appreciate your hard work at riling up Christians to get involved with this..but this Christian sees this as an Isreali Palestinian problem, not a Christian one.

[Howlin]

What really offends me is the lack of sensitivity towards jews and christians by the media

You need go no further. I agree 100 percent and you only need two recent examples to prove it.

All the uproar about Gitmo. Not ONE word about how Mike Spann or Danny Pearl's "conditions."

They are HYPOCRITES.

[Shermy]

Peter Jennings eyebrow twitching to signify disfavor when he hears the word "Israel" twitching faster....

.

Just kidding but...

[cicero's_son]

It is sickening, isn't it. I am so angry right now, I am practically shaking.

Remember: the excuse for this intifadah was that Sharon visited--VISITED, mind you--a site NEAR one of the Islamic holy places. And these bastards are shooting their way into Christ's birthplace! Why can the world not see their hypocrisy?

[codebreaker]

Or the strange military movements from Saudia Arbia, Iran and Iraq the last few days..

[Alouette]

The Wailing Wall is Israeli (hence mostly Jewish) turf.

Since it was captured in 1967, it is still considered "occupied territory." I kid you not. But then, Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Netanya are also "occupied territory." So is France. It's wherever Jews are, you see.

[aBootes]

Get them out of the Church with non-lethal gas.

Residual particles from a gas attack strong enough to drive these people out would remain in the church for quite awhile, especially in the absence of any sort of environmental system. The church would be unusable for a significant amount of time, I think. So I expect that this is not an option. Lack of food will likely do the trick soon enough.

I am a believer in Jesus Christ. We don't serve or worship buildings. Jesus is NOT physically dependent on that place for his survival. Bomb the birthplace, raid it Israel... kill the suicide bombers. We can rebuild it after the people and the land are safe. Jesus is not at all worried about the buildings. He is worried about his FAMILY members, the physical and the spiritual ones.

Radical Islam, in the spirit of their one true god HITLER, needs to be removed from this earth. Sorry, but the minarets worldwide are casting the shadow of murderous Islam on us all. It is time for the whole thing to just go away.

[Aquinasfan]

16 year old girls can blow themselves to bits for what while 120 armed "men" were hiding in the church?!

Uh-hun. They're not only peaceful but they're brave as well.

[crystalk]

It once WAS Christian, SA, but just as 1945=End of Days led to a revival in the USA, it led Europe to abandon Christianity almost totally.

They may have to come back to it in deep penitence, more than any epikoros or baal teshuva. ---and they may not have TIME.

When Hitler appeared, most Christians in Europe fell into the Vichyssoise, Spiritually, and have not come up for air yet.

France is the basest of nations, Jews should have left her decades ago.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Israeli government spokesman Arieh Mekel said several nuns were being kept against their will by Palestinian militiamen. Church officials couldn't be reached for comment on the allegations.

OMG! There is no end to what these terrorists can do.

[codebreaker]

I am just breathless at the hypocracy..

[Robert_Paulson2]

It's 25 thousand yehuda... twenty-five thousand... $25,000.
