Even when they stand against what the Lord says?

In-like what? If the truth be known.... It should be as the bible states it..... If an alien Is hostle towards you.... Put them out and close the gates to the city..... Jericho comes to mind!
Good then we agree as the decendants of Abraham the Palestinians should have their rightful share of the land.
The promise went to Issac (Jews) and his offspring and not to Ishmael.

So you can't see a conflict of interest problem here? A man comes to you with a book he's written that claims your house is his and you wouldn't see a problem with it?There is no problem with the claims of the bible, the problem is with those who refuse to believe them.
You've more in common with the Palestinians than you'll admit.No I wouldn't ask any questions. I also wouldn't ask any questions if Russia was trying to invade the US and attempt to kill every american-if we have to nuke them to stay alive then so be it. Are you an antiwar type even in self defense?
I guess it would depend on if you're a Christian or if you're Jewish? As a Christian we're held to different standards then Israel, so the question is: are you standing as a Christian or as a supporter of Israel, whether they're doing right or wrong?
tulc(can't really answer your question without knowing which one you are)
I stand with Israel as a Christian, but you know that.
My Bible just says "Abrahams descendents", nothing about "Abraham's descendents only by way of Isaac".
Anyway, I simply don't believe that the Palestinian/Arabs and the Israeli Jewish populations diverged 3000 years ago and never the twain have interbred since.

Why would your God be a racist? That doesn't fit with the loving image portrayed by Jesus.
It's not racism, it's God's sovereign choice, in the bible He still promised to be with Ishmael, and Abraham blessed the child, but the promise went to Issac. God is sovereign and He can choose to bless who He will bless and choose to not bless who He will not bless.
This image of God fits perfectly with who He is.
Old covenant -- in the New covenant, the promise went out to everyone, regardless of ancestry.
Is anyone going to comment on the fact that the opening post is in fact massively incorrect and no advisor to Obama said anything at all about invading Israel?
