So, in the beginning of the 20th century, Palestine used to be a majority Arab country. After WW1, the British colonized Palestine and a lot of Jewish settlers bought a lot of land in Palestine due to them wanting to own Palestine. After WW2, the Brits left, and the Jews took most of the land in Palestine, and they also expelled the Palestinians who lived there. Almost a million Palestinians were expelled during that time. As for now, Donald Trump is only adding oil to the fire by saying that Jerusalem is the capital of the Jews. It's really a sad state of affairs how things have been going on in the Middle East for the last 100 years. The weird thing, which I can't comprehend, is that a lot of people pretend as if Arabs are mad for no reason whatsoever, but when someone digs deep enough in reading about the history of that region, then surely it becomes very clear that the anger has been fueled for a very long time. Hence why there's a tiny minority who go to the extreme by committing suicide attacks, which is unfortunate, of course, but yeah, that's the result of interfering into a foreign region.

Fact: The Land of Israel was given by God to the descendants of Abraham as an everlasting possession:

"The Lord appeared to Abram and said, 'To your descendants I will give this Land'" (Genesis 12:7). God further said to Abraham: "I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you. And I will give to you and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession" (Genesis 17:7-8).

Both Arabs and Jews are descendants of the Prophet Abraham - peace be upon him.

To the descendants of Abraham through Isaac and Jacob, God gave the Land of Israel.

“I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you [Jacob] and your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and … all peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.” (Genesis 28:13–14)

Adonai is so clear about who gets the land of Israel as an inheritance that the prophet Jeremiah conveys God’s oath to “uproot from their lands” those among “all my wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave My people Israel.” (Jeremiah 12:14)

Although Adonai gave His own chosen property to Abraham and his descendants as an “everlasting possession,” He says He will remove the people of Judah (the Jews) from the land if they fall into sin. He also promises to return them.

“But after I uproot them, I will again have compassion and will bring each of them back to their own inheritance and their own country.” (Jeremiah 12:15)

True to God’s Word, the Jewish People were removed and then returned to the Land;

The Quran specifically calls for violence. ISIS and all other terrorist organizations have internal consistency in their philosophies. It is moderate Muslims who are not correctly observing their religion. It is a truly backwards religion that has led to more deaths than even communism and the Nazis. I don't hate all Muslims, but I sure do hate a lot of them and I sure do hate the religion. Read into some of the ISIS publication, they are not doing it because we are attacking Islam, they themselves say that. They say they are doing because the Quran and Hadith demands them to spread Islam until disbelief is eliminated and everyone worships Allah (2:193). This is just one verse, there are many other verses, some of which are even worse. It is not us forcing Muslims to do this, Muslims, like all people, . And also CHANGING A CAPITAL IS NOT AN EXCUSE OR JUSTIFICATION TO KILL PEOPLE YOU TERRORIST APOLOGIST!

While each myth has a breath of the divine within it, you can't just take a single segment of a mythology as 100% fact.

Anyway, stop fucking whining about Arabs responding how anyone would to invading foreigners. Well not anyone, there's lots of folk who'd give up after a few years, but the Palestinian Christians and Muslims, Lebanese Christians and Muslims, etc have been firmly against Israel through it all, when bowing down could have probably given them direct material awards. For that, they should be commended, and I can only hope my people have got that spirit still.

I don't really have a dog in the fight, I just root for the Arabs because I like them aesthetically more.

The Arabs, especially Hezbollah, just plain have better aesthetics imo. Besides, the Ash-Nazis weren't very smart in their last war (2006) and I doubt their performance will be much better next time.

The big question is who cares? The Israeli's offered peace to Palestine numerous times(1937, 1947, 1949, 1967, 1993, 2001, 2005, 2008) and every time they refused. At this point right of conquest should've taken place ever since 1947. So fuck em.

rejecting peace is a dumb thing to do, and the palestinians aren't right for doing that, but don't use that as justification for what israel is doing today.

The comparison does not work for a few reasons.

1. The New Testament nullifies the rules of the Old Testament in a way. Jesus came to free the Jews from following the hundreds of rules given to them in the old books.
2. Islam gives specific instruction for its believers on how to build a state, and Islam necessitates that a state be Islamic, lest it be illegitimate. Therefor all rules in the Quran and Hadiths must be enforced by the state. This is not true for Christianity, in fact, the Bible actually advocates for a separation of church and state.

  • "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from the world" (John 18:36)

  • "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's." (Matthew 22:21)


3. The religion does not allow for interpretation, there cannot be "cafeteria muslims" as there are "cafeteria catholics". While a christian can confess or ask for forgiveness (depending on denomination), a Muslim cannot make choose to ignore rules, as this is (according to most Islamic scholars) considered apostasy and punishable by... you guessed it, death.

You had me right up until the end, there.

Honestly, the sheer amount of terrorist attacks and things like ISIS justify pretty much everything that's being done.

Also, Donald Trump has nothing to do with this; all he did is recognize land Israel already holds.
