That text dear fellow is meant for momonkey...who agonizes as to why he as a Christian is hated though he adds jews too. You might reflect that Jesus was a jew too and that he was ultimately betrayed by his fellow jew. And if you dont know...Jesus is held in high reverance by the muslims as they believe in Jesus & that he will be the messiah. The only difference is that they do not believe in his divinity. You do know that Jews hold Jesus in contempt don't you?

Read history.

Are you unaware of the FACT that every country that now exists "stole the land" from somebody else at some time? Are you really unaware of that? Have you never even bothered to look at old maps and see that the national boundaries "back then" are not the same as they are now?

Good grief, that's what Hilter was all about. "They stole our land, and we're going to take it back!" Turned out great didn't it?


And for the record, I am royally POd that the Allobroges got their land stolen from them. Switzerland needs to end their illegal occupation, and end it now!!!!!!!

it's very tough being a Christian in the USA--so much discrimination

Maybe if the Israelis stopped creating blockades, cutting off basic humanitarian rights like water, fuel and electricity, this would stop.
Maybe if hamas would not have bombarded Israeli cities with rockets there would be no blockades.

Well my dear sanrene....in all honesty this is my 1st time here...Honest! Just happened to stumble across while surfing the net to pass away my time. And the posts that I saw.... Soo..thought I'd like to give my opinions on these here issues...but from the perspective of a brown skin asian.. Don't immediately slot me into 1 of your pre-defined views of non-westerners coz i have got no issues with the US or the Western world. There are lots of positives going on in the West which we here admire & respect. Hey...I am working for an American company here
But to see some of the views placed here...all I can think is...God!..if this is the way the average Westerner views the world at large...no..my bad..not average coz if you can participate in such forums you're obviously not average but obviously pretty-well educated...but some of your views!! Makes one think - Are these Westerners living in the same planet as the rest of us non whites? They place you on the same level as some of the people over here who emote their views rather than reason, the equivalent of a redneck I'd guess. Hehehe...at least these views do serve to eliminate the great myth of the 'White Man'. :P

Heyy...you guys...read somewhere that the Nazis had actually planned on deporting the unfortunate jews to an island somewhere off north Africa but that plan was scrapped..Sigh...if that had really happened..I'm sure the world would have been a much much happier place for all.. Arabs & Jews friends.... Oh well.....

You will find, my dear joe, that most Americans support Israel and the defense of her cities.

Btw, only about half of the US would be considered redneck, whatever that is.

I do find it amusing that you would use that term, that seems to flow so easily from the left-wing nuts. Makes me think my first guess was right on.

And Israel, as well, supports the U.S. Interesting tidbit from WIki:

United States of America
The Mossad informed the FBI and CIA in August 2001 that as many as 200 terrorists were slipping into the United States and planning "a major assault on the United States." The Israeli intelligence agency cautioned that it had picked up indications of a "large-scale target" in the United States and that Americans would be "very vulnerable." A month later, the terrorists struck at the twin towers. [6]

IDF knows these news agencies, along with BBC, feelings towards Israel so why allow the enemy access to your troops?

Are yuo kiiding;all the way upto and including the press didn't report many things to the american public.Why;well they want to get a story and make the 1% in reporting that really make the money. Its a cutthorat business and always has been.One thiogn about today;if you don't like teh coberage ;you can always find a different view of the same story by switching channels. I don't blame anyone for not helping the press;if tehy want the stroy go get it withoput help.
