  1. It’s quite simple. Jerusalem is God’s Holy City, where He is coming back to take up His throne for future government. We need to cleanse Jerusalem of all that is not of Him. It is NOT to be divided, it is NOT to have foreign control over it or have building frozen. This is a Jewish capitol and belongs to no one else!!!

  2. Many people don’t understand why Jerusalem is so important to Jews. Over the millenia, millions (is the number correct?) of Jews have died defending Jerusalem. Why would Jews turn over part of the city when they have already paid such a high price? After initially settling in, Jews have not tried to take over anyone else’s country. But many want theirs. Tough.

    To Obama, the U.N., E.U., Arab League, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, listen. The Jews have taken this issue off the negotiating table, and many millions of people agree with their stand and will stand behind them. Muslims must realize the era of using jihad to conquer people and lands is over. Because the wrath of the rest of the world will come slamming down upon them. Muslims fighting Muslims is abominable, and peace efforts should be made between Sunni and Shiite or many of the people will never modernize and become prosperous. Anyone else think that century after century of poor Muslims is a good idea? That means constant revolution.

    I don’t know if anyone has the answer of how to deal with cultures so different from the West. The West can’t change them. Financial aid should come with an auditor attached. Already Pakistan is complaining about this condition, but I feel Americans might as well keep the dollars in their pockets than pay for some foreigners to get rich.

  3. The following is c/o IMRA. Now the Jews are to be blamed for earthquakes:

    TEHRAN (FNA)- A prominent Palestinian activist cautioned on Wednesday that the Zionist regime of Israel is likely to attempt to destroy the Al Aqsa Mosque through an artificial earthquake, and urged all Islamic countries to show an immediate and strong reaction to the Israeli plans against the first Muslim Keble.

    “There are several scenarios for the Al Aqsa Mosque, but these are the Arab and Islamic countries as well as the international community, and not the occupying Zionist regime, which should decide the proper option for the Mosque,” Secretary-General of Islamic-Christian Front of al-Quds Hasan Khater told FNA…”

    The foundation stated that occupation is penetrating areas beneath the mosque and its surroundings through excavations that have been escalated during the last few months.

  4. Democracy = the people rule. The polls make it pretty clear, what the people of Israel want. Is anyone taking notice? Ah, the Jewish Spring! Democracy! Obama should be SO happy!
