It has been long thought (decades) by many members of radical Islam that the state of Israel must not exist.  Old habits die hard, hate breeds more hate.

why not by out all the Arabs from Israel and settle them in the 57 Muslim Countries that all ready exist. There is only one Jewish state in the whole world and yet no one can give it a break, makes you wonder.

It doesn't matter either way. The bottom line is regardless of any good will or good faith gestures on the part of Israel, the Arab world will still want Israel annihlated. All rational people know that, hence there will never be peace. Sorry for the negative analysis, it's just the way I see it.

He's a jealous God in the way a husband is jealous for his wife or vice versa. He doesn't want to share his chosen people with other (false) Gods. In the OT, the jewish nation promised to be faithful to him only, in a covenant which is like a marriage. They kept being unfaithful.

in the Bible it states that the generation which sees Israel become a nation will be the generation who sees Christ's return.\n\nIsrael became a nation May 14, 1948....which means that WE will se the g-l-o-r-i-o-u-s appering!!\n\ni can't wait!!!

There will arise a man among 10 kings.....\n\nHe will be given a seat his father once held (revelation 13:12).....\nHe will also be given that seat twice (Rev 13:5) The key word is continued.... 40 and 2 months is a 4 year term....\n\nThis second leader will go after those who are zealously religious....They are called saints... True devotees of the Lord God..... (Rev 13:7)\n\nThe first leader will cause a war and deceive people into believing in its cause...But, the second leader that follows after will fully enact it!!!!... (Rev 13:7)....... A holy war.... \n\nThrough his policy his deception will spread abroad and people will fear him....... (Dan 8:24)\n\nHe is one of war...... ((Daniel 11:30))\n\nHe will go out conquering and conquering land after land....Until he finds himself in a holy place..... \n\nThere will he establish himself and it is there that he shall meet his end........\n\nThis is when the war between he and Christ shall be.......\n\nheaven is emptied within the space of an hour.... God's wrath is poured upon men......  In that hour, this man will confirm a convenant with 10 leaders and declare war on God's people....\n\nthere is so much to this... it would take an aweful lot to explain it.... and I hope someone has done much better than me.......\n\nBut, look at the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation.....\n\nthey go hand in hand in explaining what is to come......  Also the Book of Luke and 1 Corinthians about the 15th chapter for the resurrected of the dead at that time.......\n\n\n\nyour sister,\nGinger

My dear young lady, if we could all just repect each others faiths and religions there would be more than enough room for all of us. I hate to say this but the Israelis are being as naughty as the Nazis when it comes to the Palestinians. It's sad and very very wrong. Blessings.

God does not bless any earthly nation. How could he, when the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one, Satan the devil? Would he give his blessing to nations when they are engaged in warfare against each other, causing death and suffering, including taking the lives of innocent men, women and children? The answer is no.\nSatan is in complete control of all governments and false religion. His time is running out and he knows it. His destruction will occur soon, in God's due time. The nations and all false religion,which is under his control, will suffer the same fate. They will be put out of existance.\nThe only nation which has God's blessing is not a physical nation, but a spiritual nation and it is called spiritual Israel or the Israel of God, made up of a "little flock" of anointed ones who are awarded life as co-rulers with Jesus in his Father's heavenly government.

Here's the deal:\nAccording to the Bible, the Jews were ordered by God to take over that land, which was then called Canaan. The Jews did conquer it but were forcibly removed by the Romans in 70 and 135 AD from the land after their revolts were crushed.\nThe Jews returned to that land in 1948 after Israel was re-established as a nation by the UN, so don't let anyone tell you Israel is a rogue nation. Israel has the right to exist; it came into being legitimately. The Palestinians claim to have ownership of that land, but this is not true.\nThey claim that the Canaanites were Arabs, when they were not. According to the Bible, Noah had three sons, one of whom was Shem, the ancestor of the Jews and Arabs. The Canaanites came from the line of Ham, Noah's other son. So the Canaanites were not Semites, therefore they were not Arabs. The Canaanites are gone and so are their descendants, so there is no one left to rightfully fight the Jews for that land.\nThe main problem is misdirected nationalism. The Palestinians didn't even call themselves Palestinians until AFTER 1948. The Palestinian people are merely a ploy being used by the Muslim nations to regain land that was lost to the Jews. After all, according to Islam, any land that is conquered in the name of Allah can never again come under non-Muslim rule, or a Jihad, or Holy War, must be declared in order to regain that land.\nThere are elements in the media that affect this conflict. The Palestinian media greatly brainwashes the youth of Palestine into believing a warped view of history.\nSo in short, religion has everything to do with this conflict, nothing else really matters. It's Judeo-Christianity vs. Islam.

The west should NOT assist any country that is not democratic..period!!!  When Iran turns their nukes toward Israel …..WE will be the first to throw our men and women into harms way!!  And WHY!?  Does someone have the answer to that?  Why should we throw our people into another war in the middle east? For who? For a country that would just as soon through us to the freekin dogs when we no longer are necessary to meet any of their needs???\n\nFor instance Benjamin Natanyahu said…” the cause of the attacks on the United States was a cause of it’s own”  …. Sounds like someone you’d want as an ally now doesn’t it??

Now you're just lying. Sorry.\n\n20Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it. \n\n 21He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them. \n\n 22God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. \n\n 23Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought! \n\n 24Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.\n\n\nIn context, this means that God chose Israel. Ta-da! He chose not to see anything in them negative. That's love.

wait. As an orthodox Jew let me answer the question. It is true that many opposed the creation of the state of Israel at the time because they believed that only the Messiah can come and recreate the Jewish state in Israel. Once the state was founded that became a mute point and from then on it was only a question of how one should interact with it. some try to limit contact while still living in Israel as much as they can. Others openly embrace Zionism and there is a strong Religious Zionist party in Israel. But I can guarantee you that 99.99% of all orthodox jews (there are always some nuts) want the state of Israel to continue, they might want some changes, but then again who dose not because they know if the state were to no longer exist millions of Jews could die at Arab hands and the rest would be scattered like refugees across the globe.

The Jews of Jesus' Time were looking for a Deliverer King, who would drive Israel's enemy's out of Israel. Jesus came as a Suffering Servant, to show them what being God's Chosen really meant.\n\nGod's intention with Israel was for them to be a Light to the Gentile Nations, representing Him to the World. Unfortunately they failed in this. With Christ's,(Messiah's), coming the door to the Gentiles was opened.\n\nThe Church is ,"The Wild Olive Branch grafted into The Cultivated Olive Tree..." We have not replaced Israel, but we are Spiritually Israel. Israel remains The Root of Christianity.\n\nWhy did the Jews miss all the Old Testament Prophecies ? Their Leaders did not ! They KNEW who Jesus was, and rejected Him for the above reason. I have not personally counted, but I have read that there are over 700 Messianic Prophecies in The Old Testament.\n\nTrust me. The Day is coming when Israel will recognize who their Messiah is, and turn to Him ! They will weep for Him as one weeps for one of their own children.  Israel will be Saved.

Why do you guys think he's so bad?  On one of his pilgrimages to Isreal, he had rabi's crown Jesus as king and messiah.  He's saying that God wants His children to stop fighting and is working hard for world peace, currently working to make peace in the Middle East.\nHaving rabi's crown Jesus as king and Messiah sounds like a pretty good thing to me.\n\nPlus, what some of you guys are saying is practically hypocritical.  When Jesus was on earth and saying that he was the Messiah, everyone thought he was a crazy too.  But now we know he really is the messiah.  \nYou might actually try reading some of Rev. Moons teachings; they sound an awful lot like what Jesus was teaching.

Interesting, but my translation says "God takes his stand in his own congregation".  (New American Standard).  We would need to discuss it with an expert in ancient hebrew to form an informed opinion, so take it easy.
