Christians should only support the window's, orphans and other Christians. We're not a political movement so we don't support any political or ethnic groups.
The Israelis and Hamas are being controlled by wicked Spirits, God commanded us not to committ murder. Jesus's said "ye shall know them by their fruits"
If you w a nt to know who the Israelis and Hammas serve, just look at their fruits. Their hands are soaked in blood so it's obvious they both serve Satan. That's why Christians don't support either side

I would say that Israel, at this point, has every right to go to war with Hamas. It is by definition a just war.
The problem with Israel is, it committs war crimes and genocide against innocent people. If you're OK with that, then you're just as guilty of mass murder as Israel is

Israel will literally hamper their own efforts in combating Hamas to spare innocent lives. There will be casualties because it is a war. But Israel has bent over backwards for the Arabs in that area and they are rewarded with the murder of innocent men, women, children and elderly.

The Israelis are killing Palestinian Christians in Palestine, too. Nothing is black and white. Both groups are in the wrong.
Is there a pure moral equivalence between Hamas and Israel, or is that not so black and white either?

yes, that does not mean that we should try to prevent as many deaths as possible, but there are some people that war/violence is all some people understand.

Some people only understand war/violence and the cold hard truth of war is that civilians die it is that sad and simple.

In Christ's terms...yes, there is moral equivalence between all who do not believe in Him.

God has never favored an Israeli state that did not make Him their sovereign in all things.

Frankly, war and violence is all any earthly government truly understands.

I don't know what it feels like to be a Palestinian in Hamas day after day. I doubt you do, either.

Without comprehending the existentiality of both sides, we cannot determine from our comfortable positions which side is "just."

But we know neither side is on Christ's side, because there are Christians on both sides, and both sides oppress their own Christians.

but in general most people prefer to avoid violence if that were not the case I would think there would be a LOT more violent than things are.

I concluded that government= people since fallen people are the ones in charge of Earthly government.

Then the devil took Jesus up and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a single instant. The devil said to him, “I shall give to you all this power and their glory; for it has been handed over to me, and I may give it to whomever I wish.

So a sneak attack killing multiple hundreds of civilians is on par with whatever the Israelis have done or might do? Just because they are godless heathens.
God has never favored an Israeli state that did not make Him their sovereign in all things.
Does God thus favor Hamas? Or does God hate Hamas and Israel both equally?
