First of all, they've bombed multiple Churches in Gaza. Whether they hit the altar or the parts full of women in children, it's all evil to me. In fact I'd say that hitting the parts where women and children shelter is 10x more evil than bombing the altar. This is why most of the Orthodox church has condemned Israel.
Saying, "I prefer Talmuds to Muslims" is like saying "I prefer AIDS to cancer." Right now it's the AIDS that is letting in the cancer in our countries, in no way should anyone be supporting genocidal maniacs like Talmuds.
It could have been different had the chews actually respected Christians, but now that the mask is off and they are genociding Christians right along with everyone else who is on "their" only land, the mask is off.
Similarly, with draft rules, most Israeli "civilians" have served or will serve in the IDF. So it's also not insane to call 7/10 (or more) of Israelis "civilian combatants" or something along those lines.but I continue to wonder how "innocent" the civilians of Gaza are? I prefer to call them "civilian combatants" as I am quite sure that 7 out of 10 Gazans cheered the merciless music festival and kibbutz slayings by Hamas on October 7th (unless you're saying that event didn't actually happen?). I am also quite certain that 7 out of 10 Gazans either voted for and/or gave material and "spiritual" support to Hamas for years on end until recently when they started getting bombed into oblivion (i.e. losing). It's funny how when the sh*t gets real people can go so quickly from cursing their sworn enemy to begging that same enemy for mercy.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there less than a 1000 Christians in a sea of 2 million Muslims in Gaza? So how exactly are the jews "genociding" Christians in Gaza if there aren't enough Christians in Gaza to genocide?
20 Then the Lord said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous 21 that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.”
22 The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the Lord.[d] 23 Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? 24 What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare[e] the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it? 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?”
26 The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”
27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes, 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?”
“If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”
29 Once again he spoke to him, “What if only forty are found there?”
He said, “For the sake of forty, I will not do it.”
30 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?”
He answered, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.”
31 Abraham said, “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?”
He said, “For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.”
32 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?”
He answered, “For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it.”
33 When the Lord had finished speaking with Abraham, he left, and Abraham returned home.
And so I guess the question to ask then is this: "How would you respond if you would have been at that music festival on the morning of Oct 7th, seen your girlfriend raped and kidnapped and had your two best friends heads blown off right in front of you while you barely escaped alive?" (I'm making up a plausible scenario of violence). I know what I would do, I would reign down a holy sh*t storm of revenge on the perpetrators with every last tool and weapon I had.
There's a pretty huge leap in logic there. Are you implying that it was *muslims* that genocided the Christians down to a figure of only 1,000? That's not true, and even if it were, it would not excuse the murder of even a single more person by bloodsucking kikes.Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there less than a 1000 Christians in a sea of 2 million Muslims in Gaza? So how exactly are the jews "genociding" Christians in Gaza if there aren't enough Christians in Gaza to genocide? The bombing of ancient Christian churches is a real bummer
Bombing churches is justified if you don't totally destroy them?Agreed.... But they didn't carpet bomb the Church. A bomb was dropped in the annex. I stand with what The Church has said and trust the Patriarch of Jerusalem, Antioch, and my Priest's comments and take... And I'm not justifying at all. It's despicable. but to my understanding the Church is still there.
But yeah. Spiting on a Christian is a little different than beheading. Which you're likely to get in parts of the M.E. and trying to pretend that doesn't happen is just patently silly.
Go back a reread what I said before you get into histrionics.Bombing churches is justified if you don't totally destroy them?
Spitting at nuns is ok as long as you don't behead them?
Is doing a home invasion ok if you don't burn down the home afterwards?
Rape is ok if you don't impregnate the victim?
These things are wrong and I can't imagine the need to justify or excuse them through some extreme backbending "o it could be worse tho" logic.
The getting beheaded thing occured maybe during the middle ages, but in the modern era is almost completely a creation of the US deep state / ISIS / Al Queda groups and certainly not something that any normal person is at risk of when walking through pre 2001 Iraq or basically any Muslim nation. But there are plenty of Jews who will willing spit at Christians, on camera, right now, because they hate Christ and anyone who loves Him.
Even if there was a mythical evil place where they behead people willy nilly that would not justify Jews in blowing up churches and committing murder. Geez.
I hear you.How about we stick to the facts instead of trying to mind read the emotions of internet posters?
Even if I felt the way you are projecting, my feelings about your post or "wishing you will say something" are irrelevant.
We can agree bombing churches is wrong. Bombing hospitals is also something that should be completely off the table.
Beyond that, if I misunderstood you, I'm sure I'm not the only one, so clarify it. There's no reason to bring emotion or directed statements into it. My feelings about what you believe are simply.. non existent. Other than I condemn attacking churches and hospitals. You may agree or disagree, and people will respond to that. But neither of us can get bent out of shape about it.
I don't believe any of the unsubstantiated claims from Jews that "Oh they are running a military operation out of the Hospital basement so he had to blow it up" But the reality is even if that were true, there are certain standards that the modern world requires even in times of war, including not using chemical weaponry, not attacking hospitals, not doing collective punishment, not targeting civilians, etc. War crimes.
A noncombatant citizen is supposed to be viewed the same, no matter his race or origin. So the standard test is supposed to be, would you kill the same number of your own people in order to achieve an objective. So if Israel is claiming there is a guy holed up in a school and there are 300 schoolkids there, the test is, well, would you kill 300 jewish kids to get this one guy? If not, you are not supposed to kill the innocent. Of course, Israel is doing nothing of the sort.
They don't abide by the Christian concept of Just War theory anyway, which is a more general set of ethical rules, and really the standard we should hold them to if we are going to support them as an ally.
It's interesting that you're "quite certain" about this, given that half of Gaza's population is comprised of children.I am quite sure that 7 out of 10 Gazans cheered the merciless music festival and kibbutz slayings by Hamas on October 7th (unless you're saying that event didn't actually happen?). I am also quite certain that 7 out of 10 Gazans either voted for and/or gave material and "spiritual" support to Hamas for years on end until recently when they started getting bombed into oblivion
It's interesting that you're "quite certain" about this, given that half of Gaza's population is comprised of children.
Or perhaps you meant that 7 out of 10 adults in Gaza support Hamas? That could very likely be true, but it still wouldn't justify the mass murder of thousands of children and the bombing of hospitals and refugee camps.
Israel's actions can only be justified from the perspective of believing that the Palestinians are literally non human - essentially just animals - and that killing them indiscriminately, including killing thousands of children, therefore creates no moral dilemma. Coincidentally, this is, in fact, exactly what the Jews believe, and so they have no qualms about literally murdering babies (abominable crimes which they then deceitfully assign to their enemies).
It's worth meditating on the fact that the animus the Jews hold for Palestinians is no different than how they feel about Christians, and really how they feel about all non-Jews at the end of the day. We're all just goyim from their perspective. Animals to be used, abused and ultimately slaughtered without mercy.
They'd do to the entire world what they're doing to Gaza right now if they could get away with it.
I don't have the time nor willpower to dissect your entire post as it would consume a lot of time, but will say this.There is a lot of Zionist propaganda, both covert and open, oozing from your post.Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there less than a 1000 Christians in a sea of 2 million Muslims in Gaza? So how exactly are the jews "genociding" Christians in Gaza if there aren't enough Christians in Gaza to genocide? The bombing of ancient Christian churches is a real bummer from a historical/architectural standpoint, and the killing of true innocents (regardless of age/gender/race/religion) is in fact evil, but I continue to wonder how "innocent" the civilians of Gaza are? I prefer to call them "civilian combatants" as I am quite sure that 7 out of 10 Gazans cheered the merciless music festival and kibbutz slayings by Hamas on October 7th (unless you're saying that event didn't actually happen?). I am also quite certain that 7 out of 10 Gazans either voted for and/or gave material and "spiritual" support to Hamas for years on end until recently when they started getting bombed into oblivion (i.e. losing). It's funny how when the sh*t gets real people can go so quickly from cursing their sworn enemy to begging that same enemy for mercy.
Palestine and Israel are at war (and always have been). This ongoing, never-ending conflict could not be perpetuated and sustained without both the Israeli and Palestinian civilian population's complicity and mutual hatred and disdain for each other. It takes two to tango (even though the 1948 foundation of Israel was in fact a war crime). There have been some arguments in this thread that Gaza is an open air prison and that there is/was no escape for the financially poor Palestinians. I don't buy it. If there's a will, there's a way. There was no will to leave, and therefore there was no way. If you have children, and there are bombs flying through the air for years on end, get the hell out (this goes for both Israelis and Palestinians).
And so I guess the question to ask then is this: "How would you respond if you would have been at that music festival on the morning of Oct 7th, seen your girlfriend raped and kidnapped and had your two best friends heads blown off right in front of you while you barely escaped alive?" (I'm making up a plausible scenario of violence). I know what I would do, I would reign down a holy sh*t storm of revenge on the perpetrators with every last tool and weapon I had.
I can see the confusion here because, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." But when both sides are my enemy, then existentially, they both can also become my friend. So, in the interim, until we get more fog of war clarity, let's let the Israeli jews take care of the Palestinian Muslims, and when the the jews are finished with the Muslims then we'll take care of the jews (non-violently of course).
