Israel will push on with its offensive against Hamas, including into the southern Gaza city of Rafah, despite growing international pressure to stop, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday.
Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas after its fighters attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 people and abducting 253, according to Israeli tallies. More than 30,000 people have been killed in Gaza during Israel’s subsequent offensive, Palestinian health authorities estimate, prompting worldwide criticism and condemnation.
“There is international pressure and it’s growing, but particularly when the international pressure rises, we must close ranks, we need to stand together against the attempts to stop the war,” he said.
Did not realise Western society and the Roman church were involved in the Torah—shit, don’t tell the Muslims.
You’re not incorrect, I just still have no idea why you’re raising such things way ahead in history.
Do you not understand how history works? That position between us and the alleged events means they got to edit, add, and delete all kinds of shit before we were ever born.
So when they control the European narrative from 300 CE to 1500 CE; that then informs what everyone after them thinks. Including the Protestants.
Even the Bible that people think of as the standard Bible was a project by King James because the Calvinists Bible wasn’t appropriately respectful of divine monarchy in his opinion. And having nothing much else to base it on at the time, it’s based on the Catholic Bible and a few previous attempts to convert the Catholic Bible to the English Church. Then Evangelists turned to the Scofield Bible in the 1900’s; which was just a well annotated King James Bible.
The evangelists who support Israel because they believe they’ll see Jesus again are still stuck on the Scofield Bible.
It’s not until you get to the NIV that people are trying to reach back to archeologically recovered Greek, Cyrillic, and Latin Bibles to create one not based on Catholic meddling for over a thousand years. And neither the Catholics or Conservative Evangelists are willing to do anything with the NIV. And congregations using the NIV still have to contend with a lifetime of using previous Bibles and dogma from other churches.
So do you understand why the Catholic Church is important to Christian ideology in the the US yet?
Okay.
And what of any of that has to do with what I said and the history of the Jewish people in Israel?
I know you don’t mean this and what you’re saying is not incorrect, but in context you’re essentially saying Abrahamic religions are founded on the influences of the Christian church and modern day Americans. Perhaps rather than a stance of disagreement, you should have had one of raising additional points that occured much further along the historical timeline and how they may influence (pecifically) US Christians today.
This was you several comments ago.
This is demonstrably wrong. If you want to argue that Christians are hypocrites then fine. But the mere existence of that story doesn’t create an obligation and most Christians don’t even connect that to modern Israel.
I’m arguing nothing. You are. Though, I don’t know what at since it’s entirely disassociated from anything I said and everything I’ve since said is just this sentence repeated. And yet here you are, still going…
And the sky is pink polka dots, sure.
