An apt comment : In *Desert Storm* against the Iraqi army under American leadership, Egypt participated with 20,000 soldiers, Syria with 14,000 soldiers, Morocco with 13,000, Kuwait with 9,000, Oman with 6,300, the Emirates with 4,300, and Qatar with 2,600 soldiers.. At the dawn of the Odyssey against Libya led by NATO, Qatar participated with 4 warplanes, the UAE with 6 F-16s, 6 Mirage planes, and Jordan with 4 warplanes. The same countries also participated with elite forces to fight on the ground, and the Gulf protectorate states paid for every missile and bomb that NATO dropped on Libya *a million dollars* Libya was destroyed, its people were displaced, and its money was plundered. In *Decisive Storm* against Yemen under American-British instructions, Saudi Arabia participated with 100 fighter planes and 150,000 soldiers, the UAE with 30 fighter planes, Kuwait with 15 fighter planes, Bahrain with 15 fighter planes, Qatar with 10 fighter planes, and Jordan with 6 fighter planes. Morocco had 6 fighter planes, Sudan had 5 fighter planes, and was supported by thousands of soldiers. Egypt supported the war and was part of the operations room and demonstrated the readiness of its air and naval forces in the operation!! . Also, against Syria, and by American order, two operations rooms were formed in Jordan and Turkey to secure the entry, arming, and financing of 60,000 fighters by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the Emirates, Jordan, and Bahrain. ▪️These are some of the details that history recorded in the wars of Arab countries to destroy Arab countries like them.. Iraq, Libya, Yemen, and Syria.. ▪️ In the face of the massacres of the Zionist entity, everyone stood and watched, unable even to open a crossing and bring in medicine and food!!! Because America did not give the green light!! What a disgrace and disgrace. Do you now know who runs the wars? For whose benefit? By whose orders do armies move? The paid, funded media is responsible for brainwashing to legitimize the wars of devastation by saying that in Iraq (liberation), in Libya (protection of civilians), in Yemen (legitimacy), and in Syria (democracy)... while in Palestine they stood and watched like fools over more than 20,000 martyrs, more than two-thirds of whom were children and women....

Israel is all right for her. chosen land,and chosen people that she wants to say. i was hopeless,i shut up but with swallowing the bitterness. i am so too sad,but i do not know i can carry this on. only thought is that i do not wish to make,the snake bites his tale. people kill eachother with this way. how painful it is. how miserable,now i am almost loosing the faith about humanity.***i adore you guys,the electronic intifada,you have been doing tremendously faithful good job!! in spite all of this,MERRY CHRISMAS IN PEACE TO ALL OF YOU!!! xxx

It sounds very painful to be in your situation. The problem is that many fascists believe anything they have to in order to continue persecution those they choose to persecute. You cannot convince someone who needs a certain belief to do what they want to do that the belief is wrong or mistaken.

[@darrellernst5493]

Some people want to justify the Jewish occupation of Palestine from old writings. If we go back a little bit farther in the ancient writings , my research found that the word Israel originated in ancient India. The original definition of Israel is humanity. So saying god gave the land to Israelis is saying god gave the land to all of humanity. Or any place people were living would be considered an Israel. A collection of humanity living in any area would be an Israel.

[@ursina5761]

The Bible says explicitly the land belongs to God himself (Leviticus 25:23). God gave the children of Israel stewardship over it under certain conditions. They however were unfaithful, broke their covenant with God and finally rejected and killed the Messiah Jesus Christ. For this reason they were expelled from fhe land in 70AD by means of the Roman army. There is no promise in the Bible to Christ rejecting apostate Jews. They took the land that wasn't theirs by force and military power. Sadly a majority of Christians in the West have been deceived by false end time doctrines to believe the state of Israel is a fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham which could not not be further from the truth. The Lord Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of all the OT prophecies, the true Israel of God are those who believe in him no matter which race or ethnicity they are. It's tragic that so many fooled Christians support Israel in killing their Christian brothers and sisters instead of standing with the oppressed and persecuted as Jesus Christ himself commands us to do.

[@susiex6669]

​@@ursina5761There is no archeological proof that an exodus of Jews from the region ever took place. The Bible is not a historical document and God is God, not a third rate real estate agent.

[@darrellernst5493]

@@ursina5761 you are wrong from the word go because there is no mention of a God in the original Hebrew writings. They only speak of the Eloheims in plural. The word Eloheims translates to the Powerful Ones or the Mighty ones. As one passage says, " be kind to strangers because they might be Eloheims". So all you have is the claim that the Eloheim called Yahweh said that this is our land. Yahweh had Jews killing other Jews for more land to have under his control. The Eloheims are the same beings called the Anunnaki by the Sumerians. The Sumerians Tablets tell nearly the same story as the ancient writings of India which says that " seven creator gods came to earth and set up their kingdoms. At best you are reciting lies of western culture and that of false doctrines. You have the version of history that the controllers have provided and nothing more.

Most of the American 'so-called' christians are Anglo-American evangelicals who do not view Middle Eastern people as either white or 'evangelical' enough to deserve defense. They certainly do not want to cut the major profits from their investments in the weapons industry) Many of these so-called christians are members and sympathizers of the Ku Klux Klan. The unholy marriage of white evangelicals and right-wing zionist Jews will be the undoing of the US and Israeli political systems. BTW, both of these groups hate Armenian Christians as well(or they just love AIPAC and Azerbaijani laundromat money even more); the 9 month blockade/siege, indiscriminate bombing and ethnic cleansing of this group within contested territory in Azerbaijan was barely covered at all - Israel makes billions from supplying the weaponry to Azerbaijan to do this and have instructed US politician how to vote on issues pertaining to all matters regarding the Middle East.
