QFE: "... democratic nation defending its citizens and terrorists who perpetrated the most barbaric massacre of Jews since the Holocaust."
Puh-leeze. Go talk with anyone who's actually lived in Israel, especially those Arab Christians who have been persecuted, and they will tell you how problematic the State of Israel is in its political and military machinations.
Don't be naive, people: the Zionists want you to believe that the State of Israel is some sort of perpetual Jewish victim so that the US will continue giving it the military aid it needs to pursue carte blanche politics in the Middle East. It's highly debatable whether this is good for the US or the world (9/11, anyone?). But Zionism has always been a primarily secular, nationalist, racist, colonialist movement. Here the DEI people manage to get it right, though I'm loathe to support any cause they do. The current Israeli government is all-in on expansionism and ethnic cleansing. The casualties from the war they've pursued are so far beyond the parameters of just war at this point that some of its officials will probably need to be prosecuted for war crimes once the dust settles and we have a clearer picture of what's been going on.
Need I also mention that Tel Aviv is LGBT central for the Middle East? Or that despite Israel having an atypically high birth rate, that most of it is due to the orthodox Jews who don't work and live on the dole, and the progressive Jews who hate them prop up the economy while having just as few children as the rest of the childless "West"? What are your American dollars going to support?
I don't see in the State of Israel the representative of international Jewey: rather, it's an outpost in the Middle East of the decadent and dying culture that is currently smothering Christianity here and abroad. Don't be guilted into supporting Israel. Those of Jewish descent do not have any inherent claim to Palestine: we are Christians, not bound to prop up the old covenant, which has been fulfilled in Christ and expanded to all people. If Israel wants to pursue its political aims, let it do so on its own dime. Our hands should be kept clean of their blood and the blood of their enemies. Nobody is clean in this conflict.
There are so many lies in here, it is hard to track them all. The current Israeli government is all-in on ethnic cleansing? What kind of fantasy-land talk is that?
Islam threatens to destroy Europe and Christians spend more energy repeating Al Jazeera lies about Israel than they do thinking strategically and acting to evangelize their home countries.
