Slander and murder, do you still support Israel's actions?

Israel is committing genocide and have consistently slandered its critics.

The Greek word for devil is διάβολος - diabolos

Meaning: (adj. used often as a noun), slanderous; with the article: the Slanderer (par excellence), the Devil.

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb διαβάλλω (diaballō), meaning "to slander" or "to accuse."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H7854: שָׂטָן (satan) - adversary, accuser

From John 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Christians, do you still support Israel and its actions?

No. I do not. Israel is a secular nation so this kind of cruelty is to be expected. If Jesus Christ of Nazareth became their Messiah, the landscape would look entirely different.

Ironically, if they did, there won't be Zionism and there won't be Israel in the middle of Palestine. The Middle East would be quite different indeed.

The true nation of Israel is not a place on Earth

Hebrews 11:15-16
15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Yet, the Israelites coveted their pagan neighbors in sin and demanded God to let them establish a Earthly Kingdom.

Therefore, the Earthly kingdom of Israel both the ancient and new is conceived in sin against God's Will. Zionism is misinterpretation of scriptures.

Hebrews 11 does not promote Zionism. In fact it says, Jews who live by faith will NOT seek to return to an Earthly nation. Those who returned (Zionists) were longing for an Earthly kingdom instead of a heavenly one, God is ashamed to be called their God.

1000%. The so called famine or starvation in Gaza is a myth. The war could have been over on day 2 if Hamas had stopped - but no, they won't. Hamas started this and the people are getting what they have asked for after starting this war and continually allowing their homes, land and schools to be used as staging points to launch attacks on Israel.

The whole place should be leveled into a parking lot and the Earth salted.

Do you also support Israel slandering all its critics? The only characters in the Bible who resorted to slander were the enemies of God, the enemies of Israel, the enemies of Christ, the AntiChrist, the Pharisees, Satan, and the devil. Who started the war? The Jews have been harassing and provoking the Palestinians long before the latest war.

The nation of Israel is not an Earthly one (Hebrews 11:15-16)

John 18:36
Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.”

Those who are fighting for the Earthly Israel are NOT servants of the Lord. They are serving someone else and not the Lord.

I haven't seen anything said that was not true.
Who started the war?
The Arabs.

LOL, the "Palestinians" have been provoking Israel and the Jews since....forever, but most recently since before 1948. No modern nation state would tolerate another state, much less a terrorist state, shooting rockets and missiles on a daily basis and actively calling for the expulsion and destruction of said state and all the people there. Israel was more than patient with the lot of them. Now the two state solution is dead, and good riddance to that farce.
Those who are fighting for the Earthly Israel are NOT servants of the Lord. They are serving someone else and not the Lord.
Ha, ok sure. I will stick on the side of the people that God repeatedly calls "his people", the people that Jesus is a member of. The State of Israel is not a holy state, but it is a state populated by His people and it certainly seems that he is favoring them in this war against the forces of Satan and evil.

Do you have an example?


If you don't trust this source because of its Arab origin, all you have to do is watch the video on my link to see China's stance on the situation.

China is Israel's 2nd largest trading partner. Relationship between China and Israel is leaning towards positive and even strongly positive. The last thing you'll expect from China is slander Israel. You don't slander a major trading partner. That's bad business practice.

UNRWA employees were completely "in" on October 7th, so no, I would not trust them as far as I can throw them.

War is an awful thing .... when is enough enough? Israel decides that ... that don't make it right for not ending it .... but that is how it comes down.

I am seeing accusations on all sides - but where is the evidence of slander?

Which doesn't mean much of anything, because China does a ton of trading. Just about any country that does a lot of international trade is going to have China pretty high on its list of trading partners. China is the 3rd largest trading partner of the United States, for example.

Claiming Isreal is committing genocide is false. Its a propaganda narrative which is often mostly proclaimed by enermies of Isreal and antisemites who themselves are the ones really committing genocide by wanting the Jews silenced and eradicated.

The word genocide was created by Polish lawyer Raphäel Lemkin in 1944. He developed the term partly in response to the Nazi policies of systematic murder of Jewish people during the Holocaust.

This is about taking measures to exterminate a particular ethnic group. Isreal is not engaging in this type of activity as it allows the same ethnic group as in Gaza, the Palestinian Arabs to be citizens of Isreal and hold positions such as lawyers, doctors, business people and politicians. Even being the boss or a representative over Isrealis.

Palestinian Arabs have enjoyed continuous growth as a population in Isreal for decades and not in the other direction which would indicate genocide.

One of the criteria of genocide according to the UN is "Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group" to as part of exterminating that group. But the facts is more babies have been born since Isreal entered Gaza than ever before. That is not the actions of genocide.

The Isrealis could have wiped out Gaza from the face of the earth if they wanted to. But in fact have conducted one of the most careful wars in history with a low % of civilian deaths per enermy deaths compared to other wars. They tell the enermy where they are going to attack to give them time to get out. If they were committing genocide they would not do that.

In fact its Hama who are preventing innocent Gazans from safety and getting help. It is the radical Islamists who are committing geneocide even of their own people because their ideology reins supreme by preventing that from seeking safety and using them as human shields..

If we look at the Woke UN and their stand on genocide we see how the most genocidal nations on earth, the Islamist nations like Iran, Algeria, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen and Libya have exterminated the Jews from their nations and the UN remains silent.

Not just silent they allow these genocidal nations a platform to spread their lies and ideology and thus are implicit in their support for such genocidal conditions.

The fact is Isreal are not committing genocide no more than any western nation that wants to stop extremist attacking them and trying to destroy freedoms and democracy. Imagine a neighbouring nation sending rockets into the US or England.

The only people supporting genocide are these extreme Islamist nations and those who support them in the west. We even here their cries from the river to the sea and for the extermination of the Jews. Antisemetism has sharply increased and its these lies that are fueling it.

Yes. So call me a child of the devil for all I care. Because I am not going to waste another second explaining the same things to the same people about how flawed the premise of your question is. Just add "child of Satan" to the other long list of insults used to describe conservatives.

Because everybody knows that CCP controlled propaganda sources are so much more reliable than terrorist sympathizing propaganda sources.

No, I do not. There has to be a better way. What they've done in Gaza is like shooting fish in a barrel. All proportionality, nay, any humane way to respond to the initial slaughter with integrity was passed long ago. Israel has proven no better than their enemy. For a Christian to support that is ludicrous.

People that say that Israel is this bad etc, is USA different responding to terror, when they say they killed millions of civilians with the anti terror wars in middle east.

No, Obama droned to death all kinds of innocents. Remember the whole wedding parties our country slaughtered back in the good old days? Wrong is wrong, wherever it happens and no matter who does it.
