I saw parts of the All Stars making fun of Yasser--and I missed it live because I was grocery shopping (hey, we've gotta eat). I've seen most of his bizarro show & knew the damn thing was a set-up--it plays well to the Euroweenies, the Arab/Muslim street--heck, even the Pope...including Yasser saying that the place was holy to Christians & Moslems. I yelled, "since when is the Church holy to the MOSLEMS especially when your goons are inside shooting up the place & holding hostages?"
From experience, I've learned to throw soft things at the screen.
But Geraldo was worse, so much worse, than the CNN guy on the scene. Geraldo is blaming the Israelis--and CNN is blaming the Palestinians. I swear I had travelled to an alternate universe.
Nothing Christian is holy to Islam...Islam SPITS on the essence of Christianity by denying the Truth that Christ is the Savior and Son of God. They say he is merely a prophet yet have the GALL to claim OUR holy sites are holy to them? The utter nerve...
Please fellow freepers, pray for our brethren in the Holy land. My family has a close friend who is an arch preist in the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia who was physically attacked recently by a gang of Palestinian Muslims...for NO reason other than that he is a Russian priest...he is OK but the situation there is NOT good...
Tomorow is Holy Thursday on the Julian calendar, which is the calendar of the Orthodox Church...it is the day when the Last Supper is remembered...Friday is Good Friday; the rememberence of the Crucifiction of Christ...and Sunday is the Feast of the Resurrection of Our Lord and Savior - Pascha - Easter...How sad that the Paschal bells may be silenced by the evil fighting that is going on in this most sacred of lands...
Pray for peace...
I caught that,too. The World has gone mad.
