California, Texas, and New Mexico certainly aren't. Not by the standards of the 'land for peace' douchebags. The differance is we started our war, and the Aztlaners actually were here first.Believe the Heupel wrote:Oh, I don't know-history?PSUFAN wrote:To me, a "religious zealot" is someone who insists that a hunk of land is "theirs". Who says so? Besides military might on loan, who says so?
Is the United States ours? Who says so?
Not only is Israel theirs because the land was historicly theirs, but because historicly they have been ostracized and persecuted evrywhere else they've lived, including the U.S.
Not only does God say so, but history says so, and more importantly, they say so.
Why don't you losers concentrate on actual historical injustices closer to home? Viva Aztlan, Motherfuckers.
Or are you just hypocrites?

I could cite multiple references to counter your 'take,' but these couple will do.

5: And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers

poptart, far be it from me, an agnostic, to debate the bible with you. So, instead, I'll simply say that it'd take a mighty devout Jew to look upon their recent history and still find it within themselves to attribute the existence of modern day Israel to anything God did for them...
Now, if we're to interpret "NATO" as "God" then fine, I suppose, but then that leaves a whole bunch of other God fearing people wondering why their God abandoned them?
Also, again if I were a Jew, I really don't think I'd be too thrilled with a God who'd drop Adolph Hitler and Josef Stalin on my people as a means of finally getting us our own tiny shithole of a nation...by way of the United States and Great Britian, not God.
It'd just be damn difficult to really see God's hand in all that transpired in the 20th century that led to the Jews finally getting their own nation. If I'm a Jew I'm thinking, "Okay, if all that was God's doing, well, fuck God. We had to see 6,000,000 of us slaughtered, just to be given this?? Thanks for nothing you sadistic bastard...Oh, and where the fuck is our savior already??
You're a fraud. It's all a fraud. Fuck off. We're on our own, same as we've always been..."

It takes a rather simpleminded 'agnostic' to look at the Jews being persecuted (as prophesied) by every major civilization they have come into contact with over the last three millennia, surviving as a people and a culture, and coming back together in the same land where it all began (also as prophesied) and chalk it all down to coincidence and happenstance. And every civilizition who oppressed them going into rapid decline, BTW (more prophecy there). Just another case of serendipty (sounds more 'scientific' than God's Will, I guess).Van wrote:poptart, far be it from me, an agnostic, to debate the bible with you.

The return to Israel was a direct result of Hitler's actions, as the Zionist movement itself was a response to late 19 century pograms. And the military defeats generaly occured after the persecutions (the Spanish Armada occuring reletively soon (80 something years-a little over a biblical generation) after the expulsion of the jews from Spain comes to mind).

Dio, so, you're saying that God's delivery on his prophesied national homeland for the Jews was always going to firstly require the massive use of crematoriums?
That was the prophesy, since what happened couldn't have simply been an evil quirk/coincidence of history?
And, that a religious person ought to look at such fucked up Divine Will and be cool with it?
Gotcha.
Glad I'm an agnostic then. Placing my Faith in such a sadistic asshat of a God would go well beyond the pale for me.
Knowing the fruition of his promise was predicated on the barbaric slaughter of my people, well, I think I'd have to request that he just let me be a nice, non persecuted WASP from the 'burbs of Boise...

I'm still awaiting the idjit's listing of the fabulous post-14th century contributions of Arab culture to the world.....

RACK that take.
But, as it is, the fact those people can still maintain a love for and faith in, in this God even after experiencing such barbaric treatment, really doesn't lead me to ask anything but "Who the fuck am I to question THEIR beliefs".
They've tasted the bitter truths of God's world. Like you ..I"ve enjoyed the luxry of being a "nice, non-persecuted American in the 'burbs of D.C".
If you believe in this entity, God, you believe in His omniscience, omnipotence, and that He will see to it that those that suffered and died under the hands of the Nazis, will be taken care of. Suffice it to say, that I agree 100% with the spirit and emotion behind your post.
I make a decision to say "There is still a God", solely based on the fact that those very same people that experienced the Holocaust and other similiar fates, maintain and hold onto their beliefs.
Straight out of my own heart is
"And, that a religious person ought to look at such fucked up Divine Will and be cool with it?"
And the answer is, it doesn't really matter what Tom is cool with or not cool with. The Divine Will, has and will continue to do fine with or without Tom's belief in, adherence to, or subjugation to it.
You're a good man Van, I hope absolutely nothing blesses you today.

Don't think it won't happen, either.Mike the Lab Rat wrote:I think that the Israeli's should just declare "Manifest Destiny" and expand into the non-"Quilted Northern" regions...worked for us!
The status quo will not continue to work. Either Israel will be wiped from the map or she'll need to expand in order to better secure her safety. She won't be able to maintain her security while remaining so small of a nation surrounded by fanatical enemies. Eventually those 20 mile rockets of the enemy will become 500 mile rockets and then there'll be no safe place in Israel.
This is the main folly of the Arab world. Rather than simply live with the indignity that is the existence of a very tiny Israel that just wishes to be left alone in their tiny spit of land the Arabs are going to force feed themselves their worst nightmare...a much larger and much more aggressive Israel which was forced into swallowing up the lands of and displacing all the peoples of Lebanon, Jordan and quite possibly Syria.
One or the other, it's got to happen. Either Israel gets destroyed or Israel expands.
We'll see how this all unfolds in the next sixty years but knowing what you know about the strengths of Israel and her allies vs the strengths of their regional enemies, hey, upon which eventuality would you place your bet?

Tom, you're confusing my message there...
My point wasn't that a religious person, particularly a Jew, might question the existence of God or even of His will...
No, my point was a refutation of Dio's point that the creation of Israel shouldn't be construed as a coincidental quirk of history predicated upon the evil doings of Hitler and Stalin and the resulting humanitarian action taken by the U.S. and Great Britian. No, he's positing that everything leading up to the forming of modern day Israel was all just the fulfillment of God's supposed promise to the Jews to finally bring them back together in their own sacred homeland.
To me, nope, that's just not going to work. If I'm a Jew I'm thinking that God could've granted my people our reunion in our sacred homeland without first slaughtering 2/3rds of us...
In that case, fuck God. The savior we've been waiting on for thousands of years, our very own christ, the one who'll deliver unto us our own sacred homeland...that prophesied savior turned out to be...the fucking crematorium?? (And make no mistake, that's what finally prompted the world to take pity on the Jews. News of their wholesale slaughter was the impetus for finally granting them their own safe haven back in their ancestral homeland...)
God either abondoned us to that fate or, worse, he actually orchestrated it??
In either case, no thanks go to such a God. I'd hate such a Satan and I'd want nothing to do with him. Instead, as a Jew, I think I'd have to go ahead and worship the more faithful and accountable gods of human self reliance, political awareness and battle preparedness...

No, that wasn't the point I was making, and you haven't refuted shit anyway. To reiterate...Van wrote:No, my point was a refutation of Dio's point that the creation of Israel shouldn't be construed as a coincidental quirk of history predicated upon the evil doings of Hitler and Stalin and the resulting humanitarian action taken by the U.S. and Great Britian.

If that still is going over your head, all I am saying is that A) The survival of millenia of persecution, genocide and opression by the Jews B) The subsequent decline and fall of all their oppressers and C) Their ability to repossess their ancestral home with their culture intact after so many years is historicaly unprescedented, improbable bordering on the miraculous (unless you're an 'agnostic', of course) and fortold in the scriptures.It takes a rather simpleminded 'agnostic' to look at the Jews being persecuted (as prophesied) by every major civilization they have come into contact with over the last three millennia, surviving as a people and a culture, and coming back together in the same land where it all began (also as prophesied) and chalk it all down to coincidence and happenstance.

And your whole 'God can't exist because if he did, he would be a big fat meanie' 'take' is just sophmoric bullshit only compelling to 'agnostics' and other intellectual pygmies.

Dio, all you did there was to re-state the same head in the sand position that crematoriums were God's method of fulfilling his promise.
Dance around it all you want, but that's your position.
I reject that position, and I'm correct in doing so. God didn't give Israel to the Jews, the U.N. did. The U.N. did it because of one word: crematorium.
Continue to be a rose colored glasses blockhead all you want, but that's the be all and end all of how the Jews finally came to have their own land. The world, not God, took mercy on them after they were nearly wiped from the face of the planet.
If those were God's stips then who needs him? Good riddance.
MarTard, as long as your country continues to have to suck our dick whenever we whistle and point at our crotch maybe you might just want to avoid any and all such anologies.

If those were God's stips then who needs him? Good riddance.
MarTard, as long as your country continues to have to suck our dick whenever we whistle and point at our crotch maybe you might just want to avoid any and all such anologies.
Remember...you're Canadian. You've done precisely dick in your nation's history, other than get owned by the British, the French (!!) and now the U.S.
Just slap Bryan Adams on your flag and Celine Dion on your stamps and STFU when it comes to taking potshots at the very hand that feeds and shelters you.
Canadians as a world political entity only wish they even had a dick to suck.

Bullshit. They weren't 'given' anything by the UN, they fucking well took it. And after they agreed to give some of it back to the squatters who were living there off of their labors (turning a barren wasteland into a thriving land) in order to live in peace and said squatters with their neo-nazi brethern tryed to exterminate them, they took the rest of it back.God didn't give Israel to the Jews, the U.N. did. The U.N. did it because of one word: crematorium.
All the U.N. did was recognize a fait accompli. Let me know when they decide to 'give' Azlan back to it's rightful owners, and how they intend to accomplish it.
Oh, and don't bother telling me 'my position', it only demonstrates you don't fucking grasp what my actual position is.

No, Dio, they couldn't "take it", since there was no "they"!!
Pre 1948 there was no nation of Israel, and by 1948 the majority of the world's Jews had been murdered. There were people there on the land that is now Israel, but there was no recognized Jewish nation state there.
The U.N. created a nation state where none existed there before, and they crerated it for the benefit of the survivors of the recent Holocaust so that those survivors might finally have a place of their own to live in which they wouldn't be hunted down and slaughtered like a Nick Frisco "take"...
You've made your position quite clear. The creation of modern day Israel was all part of God's plan, the fulfillment of his promise to the Jews from milleniums past.
You've made your position quite clear. You believe that nonsense.
You've made your position clear. You're an idiot.

Hey Dio, ya roller--hiding behind bold type, here's a couple of numbers for you,
Baghdad's Jewish population before 1950:
approximately 33%
Number of Wars between Arabs and Jews before the Zionist invasion:
0
Number of Euro Apartheid states created in 1948:
2 (S. Africa and Israel)
Number of 1948 Apartheid States which became thoroughly despised by the respective indigenous populations forthwith:
2 (S.Africa and Israel)
Number of 1948 Apartheid States which illegally developed nuclear weapons:
2 (S. Africa and Israel)
Number of 1948 Apartheid Staes which have fallen so far:
1 (S. Africa)
Number of Apartheid States which are freaking out right now like a wild pitbull:
1 (Israel...but you knew that)
One down and one to go, asshole. Despite the fact of this vicious and bizarre excuse for a "divine" entity (and seriously, that's how you bible nutters regard the Ecstacy distribution center of the the Western hemisphere) being fully supported by the completely criminal Cheney/Chimp cabal now shredding the constitution--having blatantly stolen the '04 election--the sheer toxic nature of this geo-political hairball will be eructed by the world.

Dio, your position is that the creation of Israel wasn't the result of historical happenstance and coincidence, it was a prophesy fulfilled.
That means God had his hand in it.
That means God either stood idly by or, worse, he choreographed the events that led to the creation of Israel.
The only reason Israel exists is the actions taken against them by messers Stalin and Hitler. There was no "fait accompli" and there was no "taking Israel" by the Jews and in fact were it not for WWII there was no mechanism in place by which Israel was going to be created any time soon.
A monstrous catastrophe occured; a monstrous catastrophe which the world could no longer ignore, and so the world was forced into doing something.
Thus...Israel!
Show me where God had any hand in any of it. Better yet, show me where God had any hand in it, and in a manner in which Jews shouldn't reject him out of hand for having had a hand in it.
