Bullshit.What nonsense.
This is about islamist ideology and its built-in Jew hatred and the islamist concept of waqf.
You don't bulldoze down peoples homes and olive trees in self-defense.
You do that to start a war!

well sweetie it WAS true that poor kids could get into the elite christian schools and several of my dirt poor christian and hindu family did just that 20 years agoBelieve it or not---kvetch------I am aware of the christian schools where even poor indians manage to GET IN-----uhm----for a few months my kid has a HINDU GRANDMA babysitter-------here in the USA-----she was all excited to get her grandkids into the ----yeshiva school my kid was attending at that time---------it was a REALLY old fashioned place-------the poor kids were exposed to the talmud in aramaic-----not that any of them knew what was going on -------such an awkward situation------I said "they will be praying in hebrew all day" -----she said "good good"
a college friend of mine----hindu from a clearly poor family----got his excellent schooling that got him to a Ph-d program in the USA from a catholic school
hollie I will not take anything seriously from someone who calls muslims oxygen wasters and wishes them all dead in a sectarian war...your hollie-caustAll the rocket attacks are in response to an Israeli air strike, invasion or because of the 45 year occupation of Palestinian land.Why don't you go educate yourself? People who fire rockets at civilian areas and non-militarty targets, who use their civilians as human shields and fire rockets from populated areas endangering their civilian population and their children all the while knowing full well that retaliation will obviously be incurred against those co-ordinates, have already violated the conventions themselves on numerous counts and are therefore no longer entitled to its protection - that means the terrorist rocket launching scum regularly cut their own noses off to spite their own faces - but they don't mind because there are so many dhimwits like you around to buy and peddle their propaganda. Duhhhhhhh.
Israel is not retaliating, they are the aggressors doing this deliberately to maintain tensions between the to groups.

It's all relevant and is stacked up in the same pile. Get used to it.One can always tell just how bad Israel has done something, by the speed at which you try to change the subject of the thread OP.Sherri, you're supposed to be a Christian so I know you are tracking all the Christians killed in the Gaza "attacks". Are you tallying the number of Christians also killed in Syria? Or Egypt? BTW, I noticed you edited your OP to add some posed Pallywood propaganda pictures. Great job!
And what about all these innocent Syrian refugees? Ever think of their plight?
Some 11,000 flee Syria in a single day, says UN - SYRIA - TURKEY - FRANCE 24
Look, if you don't know the applicable and relevent sections of GC and IHL regarding an area under occupation, then don't enter discussions referring to them until you have properly educated yourself on the subject matter."An occupational force, cannot claim self-defense."
from crotch boy
crotch boy----can you cite your sources for this "LAW"
are you sure that in the period of time that the USA
OCCUPIED JAPAN----it was legal for japanese people
to slit the throats of american infants?
They are going! They are going to lay a scunion on some terrorist devils.Read about it here.It should be the Israeli's that are going.This evening we will see to where the situation in Gaza is going to.
you could have said palestinians or arabs or gazanssherri: you said
How long is this particular Israeli Gentile killing operation in Occupied Palestine going to continue?
How much blood of innocent civilian Gentiles in Palestine, (the indigenous peoples of Palestine), is enough for Israel?
using the word Gentile in this context puts a different anti semitic spin on what you say
why do you so often do this, please??
looks like the shadow of the christ killing anti jew libel always gets the worst of you, still
despite your "salvation" by jeremiah!!
it seems jesus has failed to save you from anti jewish hatred
you pose as a friend of the poor wretched gazans who need help from the IDF murderers, for sure
but for you its just your excuse ti have a go at jews for killing christ
gaza is a terrible place to be a christian
as is much and more and more of the arab and muslim world
not a squeak out of you about that, or real christian concerns
kvetch,
The targets of this recent escalation of violence in Gaza are Gentiles, nonJews in Palestine, now that is a fact, that is a truth. Speaking the truth is not something I believe I should shy away from doing, no matter who desires that truth to be silenced or however politically incorrect speaking of certain truths becomes. And I do not think speaking Truth makes me Antisemitic or makes me a hating person. In fact, Jesus tells me I will be hated for speaking truth, so I wear criticisms like this as a badge of honor.
I see an Occupation that dehumanizes and hurts and kills as a proper christian concern, the fact that there are other christian concerns does not change that.
Life is hard for Christians in Palestine, but Christians were never promised an easy life. And, if I were a Christian there, I would seek to see each and every single day as a special opportunity to live out the teachings of Jesus in my life. The Christians there face similar challenges to those faced by the earliest of Christians, they face challenges so much like those faced by Jesus Himself, and I can't help but think most Christians who remain are those committed to Jesus the most, who see the truth of all of this. I think about particular Christians in Palestine, Mazin Qumsiyeh, the CPT members. They do not have to stay, they are citizens elsewhere, they have resources to leave, but their love and passion for the people there keeps them there and the callings of Jesus keep them there. Love/God meets all their needs, all they have to do is place their trust completely in Him. And the Blessings that flow from living out the teachings of Christ in a life in Palestine make the sufferings Joy!
Sherri
instead you said gentiles
that means a different agenda altogether
one you have often slipped into
i agree totally with you about israel's treatment of gaza
you would serve the gazan cause far better by avoiding anti jewish buzzwords
esoecially one that links directly with 2000 years of christain oppression of jews
are you trying to advocate for gaza??
or the other thing???
Use whatever hate words you can think of. It's the proper thing to do.you could have said palestinians or arabs or gazanskvetch,

kvetch,
This is my second time to try to submit this post, after spending the morning thinking about your post. We do make choices about words we use, after all.
It hit me, it was so simple, after returning from taking my son to his doctor's appointment, whether I should use the word Gentiles depends on whether Jesus did.
And I start reading in Matthew, and as I finish reading The Sermon On The Mount, I have already found three separate instances of Jesus using the word Gentiles.
Matthew 5:43-48 ESV
Love Your Enemies
43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your eenemy.' 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 6:7-15 ESV
7 And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread, 12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors, 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. 14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Matthew 6: 32-33 ESV
32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. "
Jesus was not an oppressor of Jews, I find your accusation that Christians are historical oppressors of Jews to be offensive. I am not bound to believe a version of History that has painted Jesus and Christianity as Evil.
And as Jesus used the word Gentiles boldly and without fear, so shall I do as He did, and do the same.

rosiein the sermon on the mount myth-----jesus speaks in aramaic ----I think. It was the language of the street
in those days I wonder how one says "GENTILES" in aramaic. Long ago----when I first began learning a bit
of hebrew----I realized that reading the bible in hebrew is--a bit different from the KGV although I have to admit GEORGE did a good job----still there are important shades of meaning lost in the translation. Some of the stuff that comes out really AWKWARD in english-----is simply very poetic and fluid and NOT SO WEIRD AND CIRCUITOUS as it seems in translation I also wonder at the word "HATE" -----the hebrew word that comes out as "HATE"-----is not precisely translated in some cases I believe the word OBJECTIONABLE or REJECTED would be a lot closer in shade of meaning. I do not know the aramaic for any of this stuff-----but it is more than likely that neither did Jesus---the aramaic spoken by jews was not precisely the same as the aramaic spoken ------in mesopotamia------it was a bit HEBRAIZED----some key words were simply regularly expressed in hebrew.
then ---of course---there was the problem of translating the whole thing into GREEK. Word are important-----intricate
analysis of a translation ----or even a SECOND HAND AND THIRD HAND TRANSLATION ----is really idiotic
Angelica, what's wrong with it if someone says they don't like Jews?
Are you trying to say Jews deserve higher rights and you demand people shut up about Israel and Zionists?
In America you're allowed to "hate" Jews.
