It's all a damn manipulation of scripture. What kills me is how so many of them fall right in line with the idea that no Arabs ever lived in this non-existent place called Palestine. How in the heck would that even be possible, lol?

I believe it is In the Bible that Christians must support Israel or be cursed forever. Something to that extent.
It's not in the bible. That's an interpretation made centuries later. Have you ever heard of John Nelson Darby or Cyrus I. Scofield?

I have t heard of them, but I think it comes from this script :
Blessed is he that blesseth thee [Israel], cursed is he that curseth thee. (Numbers 24:9)

You should look them up.

The book of Numbers is the OT, or the fourth book of the Torah (of course it was written that way, lol). After the Reformation and after groups like The Brethren (another subject to look up), biblical interpretations began to change.

Do you feel that text was incorrectly interpreted?

It absolutely is not a lie, Israel is an occupying force and Israeli settlers have been pushing Palestinians out of their homes for years. Palestinians are dying in this conflict at much higher rates than Israelis and the Israelis are certainly not innocent of targeting Palestinian children on numerous occasions. They are at war and war is ugly but we are certainly not talking about a legion of moral purists vs a terrorist organization here. Maybe you should educate yourself because there is nothing distorted about my views of the factual history of this conflict.

Communism and socialism aren’t the same thing and you don’t know what either of them are.
