They're not going to sit around waiting to be nuked. You make the case as well as any Israeli general.

You need to re-read my statement. I suggested emigrating from Israel, not doing pre-emptive strikes. Obama will not defend Israel if they do pre-emptive strikes.

US and Israel, Neocons and Zionists will get destroyed by the meek that God shall raise up to show just who is in control.

Right. Emigrating from Israel is a swell idea...Because 2,000 years in the Diaspora before 1948 had been a cakewalk for the jews, right? I am pretty sure the Israelis will find the idea of a pre-emptive strike to be much more appealing, your suggestions notwithstanding.

PS oh, and I doubt they will need Obama to defend them, they won all their major victories (1948, 1967, 1973) completely on their own.

I'm pretty sure Allah is rooting for the other side. I'm pretty sure God and Allah will cancel each other out.

Quote from CrackPipe:

it also says do not murder.

it also says..... (Romans 2)

5 But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of Godâs wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed. 6 God âwill repay each person according to what they have done.â[a] 7 To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. 8 But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. 9 There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; 10 but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 11 For God does not show favoritism.

12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in Godâs sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges peopleâs secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

The Jews and the Law

17 Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and boast in God; 18 if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; 19 if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, 20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truthâ 21 you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? 22 You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 23 You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? 24 As it is written: âGodâs name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.â
25 Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised. 26 So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the lawâs requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised? 27 The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the law will condemn you who, even though you have the[c] written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker.

28 A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. 29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a personâs praise is not from other people, but from God.

In other words....

Cp;
Thanks for the Bible quote;
sounds like you copied it exactly also

Why love Israel? King Solomon[son of David ] did, the wisest/ wealthiest king ever to live. So wise, so wealthy God said never be another king equal [paraphrase] 1st Kings chapter 3.

King David did;
he made the Hebrews hall of faith[Hebrews chapter 11] King David wrote in Psalms ''if i forget Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning''.

Besides King of Kings Jesus Christ is Jewish, Israel born;
and said concrening himself] ''behold a greater then Solomon is here ''

I think the better question involves the motivation behind liberal Jews believing everything Hamas says and doing everything they can to destroy Israel.

Yep. I've got jewish friends and they honestly don't care what happens to Israel. When I ask why that is they say it just isn't their problem.

I've never been able to figure that out and just stopped trying.

That is probably part of the mechanism that allowed the holocaust to occur. One cannot conclude that there is a missing gene for "communal self-defense" because Israel itself is a huge anomaly in the data as they clearly defend themselves effectively there.

Jews are an enigma and aren't going to be easily understood by someone like myself. I grew up around them and don't want to see their home country destroyed. That is as far as my thinking takes me.
