History Lesson: Israel

I have a series of subjects I'd like to post on, and was planning on releasing the first one tonight, but have seen so much misinformation, bloodthirst, warmongering, and willful ignorance from ostensible Christians, that I felt my first REAL post had to address it.

This post is being thrown together from bits and pieces I have collected.  There will be very little proofreading or editing so that I can get the information out there as soon as possible.  I may go back and edit it if anything glaring is brought to my attention.

Good Christians support the Children of Israel.
Smart Christians understand there is significant difference between Jacob's descendants, and the nation-state of Israel.

Many Christians are blindly supporting the Israel, the state, even though they have committed atrocities and are far from blameless.

In the end, the important thing is this: Jesus is our Master, Exemplar, and Teacher.  He is the lens through which we should see EVERYTHING!  We must renounce war and proclaim peace.  Calling for anything else from either side is demonstrably unchristian.

What Hamas did was absolutely horrible, and it has done many horrible things over the decades, but it is no more horrible than the terrible things Israel has done.

Again, Israel is NOT the good guy. Israel is NOT a victim. Israel has, and always has had, a terrorist government that is no better than Hamas.

Hundreds of thousands of people fled before Israeli aggression that killed them and made them homeless, and people are surprised that the Palestinians are pissed about it.

We really need to get our heads out of the sand and study the issue. Israel has been at least as culpable in the continuing fighting. 











Hamas said they were stopping militant tactics. Israel then assassinated its leader. It's almost as if Israel didn't want the violence to stop.


The Oslo Accords were a sham that Israel immediately violated.



Hamas leader says they wanted an agreement for the mutual reduction of attacks against civilians with Israel. Israel ignored him. He offered a 10 year peace treaty in exchange for a Palestinian State that would be far smaller than international treaties say the Palestinians should have. Israel then killed him. Again, it's almost as if they wanted the violence to continue.



The international community's response to the killing was surprise, disgust, and outrage.


Again an offer for a two-state treaty was extended, and ignored. Again, it's almost as if no one wants the violence to stop.


Israel wanted Hamas to win the election so they could further lock down Gaza. They wanted to further oppress the Palestinians. They were hoping that would be the result.


Again a two-state agreement was offered if Israel stopped building illegal settlements in the West Bank, which were condemned as an illegal occupation of Palestinian lands by the international community. Israel refused.









Ariel Sharon was a leader of the IDF and committed atrocities. Was he convicted? No, not at all. He became the prime minister of Israel. Again, Israel doesn't want to stop the fighting, and they support atrocities committed upon Palestinians.

List of illegal Israeli settlements, most of which were authorized and funded by the Israeli government. These settlements are war crimes because they are illegal colonization of occupied territories: Link 6

This shows the expectation of committing war crimes in the IDF. Common soldiers are taught to massacre civilians.  Years later, they're still laughing about it: Link 7
