Just to bring the Israel/Palestinian war into perspective.

As long as Israelis are safe and sound, that's all I care about. Long live the Zionists!

and there is a billion plus strong that see that as a challenge...

For doing as their supposed to and being “subject to the governing authorities” of Hamas?

Prevarications aside, We follow God, not man. For social tranquility we obey the laws of man that do not contrast with Gods law.

Non answer is a non answer.

If you try to "stop terrorism" by wiping out a population, that is properly labeled as "genocide" by the left, the right and the center.

When the very last citizen or refugee has been erased that statement may have the value you are hoping for. As of now, I have not read Landon suggest the desire to obliterate every man, woman and child that currently lives or had lived in Gaza. It is what you choose to focus on. Pray instead if you do, on intervention so that the leaders of those in Gaza will seek a peaceful solution with integrity and resolve.

I think sometimes Landon that those who vociferously spew the vitriol of pretentious peace are those who start the wars. Reason certainly is not valued unless it is inline with their presumptions.

You seem to be bent on discussing what 'you perceive' as Israels wrongdoing. Yet, you have no replies concerning the atrocities of Hamas. Should you desire to engage in honest dialogue perhaps we will continue, regardless I grow weary of what I see as a predisposition to adhere to a fallacious narrative. Perhaps it would be best if you sought for more information from sources other than the lamestream news media.

Proverbs 18:17
“The first to state his case seems right,
until his opponent begins to cross-examine him.”

Hamas, appears to be more proficient at BS than Israel, or maybe their simple lies are more palatable to the liberal mindset.

As to your question on whether or not you should just conform your conscience to what God declares is righteous. I would unequivocally say yes. I do not however suspect that your version of what is righteous aligns with mine, then we would not be having this conversation.

Is it your position that Israel has not committed acts of violence against Palestinian people, either in the past, or currently?

I wasn't even aware that was up for debate.

Though your non-ironic use of "lamestream media" certainly paints a picture of what to expect going forward. Can you point me to news sources that you consider trustworthy?

it's not like they are starting a war with Iran

There was little reduction in production because of slave labor

That is incorrect. As an example by the time of D-Day the Luftwaffe was virtually destroyed because of the constant bombing (of the previous 18-24 months by allied heavy bombers) of industrial facilities. After Bastogne the armoured divisions had given their last reserves and had little to stop the allies in their drive for Berlin.

Rumor has it that Netanyahu wants the Arab Gazans to work in the diamond mines in the Congo. Also that he with India plans to build the Ben Gurion Canal project through Gaza to connect the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea and bypass the Egyptian Suez Canal.

You wouldn't happen to have a source for that, would you?
