Why all this Christian anti-Israel Hatred?

By Giulio Meotti, INN

Have the Christians in the West heard Islamists proclaiming daily that they will not stop until Christianity is wiped off the face of the earth?

The dramatic situation has been perfectly described by Rabbi Haïm Korsia, Chief Rabbi of France, who called for a reaction of fraternal solidarity in the face of hatred against Christians, and established a comparison with the destruction of Eastern Jewry:

“Where are the Jewish communities which once lived in Aleppo, Beirut, Alexandria, Cairo and Tripoli? Where are the schools of Nehardea and Pumbedita in Iraq? And where is the flourishing Judaism of Esfahan and Tehran? In our memory alone. Expelled, killed, decimated, persecuted and exiled, Eastern Christians are now personally experiencing the same experiences of the Jews who once lived in those places”.

Christianity is dying in Syria and Iraq. Christian churches are demolished, Christian crosses are burned and replaced with flags of the Islamic State, Christian houses are destroyed, entireChristian communities are displaced, Christian children are massacred, and everything is done in plain sight. Islamists proclaim on a daily basis that they will not stop until Christianity is wiped off the face of the earth.

So are the world Christian bodies denouncing the Islamic forces for the ethnic cleansing, genocide and historic demographic-religious revolution their brethen is suffering? No. Christians these days are busy targeting the Israeli Jews.

The Pope, who should represent the voice of one billion Catholics around the world, was not busy these days in writing an enciclica against the Islamic persecution of Christians. No, the Catholic Church was very busy in signing a historic agreement with the “State of Palestine”, a non-existent entity which, if it (God forbid) should be created, would be the first state after the Nazi Germany to officially ban the Jews and expel the remnant of its Christians.

These days, three US Christian bodies are also very active on the issue of the Middle East. These are the United Church of Christ, the Episcopal Church and the Mennonite Church. These Churches are not worried about the Christians beheaded in Libya by the Islamic State. These Christians are not raising the alarm on the last Christians of Aleppo. No. They are all adopting resolutions to divest from the Jewish State, the Mennonites having kindly decided to put off the vote for two years. They demonize, target and isolate the Israeli people for defending themselves from barbaric terrorists.

It is a mystery. How can we explain all this Christian animosity toward the Jewish people in this time of suffering for Christian communities? It is a kind of anti-Semitism which cannot be explained by rational concepts. It is a virus, a malady, a disease, a cancer which will ultimately rebound against Christians themselves.

Sorry, my irrelevant Christian fellows, but Israel and the Jews are not ready to commit suicide. Don’t forget what happened during the Holocaust. You sided with the enemies of the Jewish people and you were  also devoured by them.

    Meotti is wasting his breath, and so are you.

    I searched through your post and was unable to find a single bit of evidence or reasoning as to how you support this assertion. You have linked not one comment of mine with your ludicrous and gratuitous assertion. It appears that what I post is irrelvant to your making comments about me.
    Let me show you why, based on your own statements in this post, your comments are inane,irrelevant, superficial, exhibitionistic and masturbatory:
    ArnoldHarris Said:

    Concentrate on strategies to build up the power, population size, economic strength, and land area of the State of Israel.

    this statement is inane, irrelevant and superficial:
    I do not consider eating breakfast and taking a daily bowel movement as being worthy of being called “strategies” as they are simply what one does without thinking and “strategies” imply thought and focus of energy. Your first three are what all nations do simply by existing and require no strategic thought, plus Israel is already achieving those goals and likely does not need you to point them out as if they missed them; hence inane. The fourth is irrelevant because almost everyone who comes to this forum already supports increasing Israel’s land size and therefore you are irrelevantly preaching to the converted.

    Furthermore they are not even strategies they are goals… a strategy identifies a realistic path to reaching a goal. this demonstrates your superficiality in that you confuse a goal with a methodology of reaching that goal, which is what children do.

    If you werenot so superficial and actually read my posts you would have discovered that I have identified very specific strategies through the years on Israepundi towards the efficacy of Lawfare, the imperative of jewish settlement in YS, the transfer of the 5th column honor killers from Israel, how to see and approach the dire threat of europe, etc etc etc.

    Your demonstrated ignorance wrt my historical and current record show that you come here merely to deposit your turds on the doorstep of others and then smugly and proudly walk away like any toddler or puppy filled with pride over his accomplishment. This demonstrates both exhibitionism and masturbation when observed in an adult.

    ArnoldHarris Said:

    Power always trumps righteousness,

    Have you ever seen me assert otherwise, do you see me advising a righteous path for Jews as opposed to a path of power. My posting record says the opposite, so I guess you are uninterested in reality but just in showing yourself off.

    On top of all that, unless you are aware of the goal I have set for myself in my posts you cannot possibly arrive at a conclusion that I “waste my time”. I suggest that you move beyond the superficial when reading the posts of others and commenting and try to relate your ludicrous assertions to some semblance of evidence, support or reasoning.

    Try to show relevance to the post to which you are replying, e.g.:

    Note that I did not just pick up your turd on my doorstep and fling it back haphazardly without relevance as you did. I specifically and respectfully linked all of my assertions, wrt your post and MO, to your specific inane, superficial, irrelevant, exhibitionist and masturbatory comments so that you could see how I arrived at my conclusions.

    BTW, it is my view that the greatest problem preventing Israel from settling YS, which I believe to be the prime imperative and solution, is the mental state of Israel and the Jews. They have bought into the narratives of the foreigners and operate as if mentally ill:
    what sane nation or people would sacrifice their sons and daughters to save the lives of enemy civilians who send their toddlers to Jew killing summer training camp for the sole reason of impressing their 2000 year habitual, serial, chronic abusers, libelers, swindlers and slaughters? The same abusers whom are intentionally continuing the same path but the Jews are unable to see this and instead reason with their executioners.
    what sane people allow their intended slaughters to run rampant in their land and freely attempt every sabotage to their existence and success?
    what sane people would engage hitler and goebbels in rational argumentation to try and convince them that their intentional lies are untrue?
    What sane people would negotiate, rather than liquidate or transfer, those who teach their children that they are the sons of apes and pigs?
    What sane people would try to convince the BDS churches and orgs, who intentionally and knowingly spread the libels which end up as the motivation for the murder of Jewish children in france, that they are ignorant of facts rather that intentionally lying?

    I have come to the conclusion that repeatedly stating what Israel should do is obvious and futile as the Jews are in a mental fog similar to the one that accompanied them on the trains to aushwitz.

    for me, the most important thing is to get the Jews to realize that those whom they consider rational and just ignorant are in fact existential enemies who daily attempt to murder Jewish children by spreading the same lies which they always spread in the past.

    For me, it is important to equate BDS not with a “difference of opinion” which does not seek to alter fact, but is instead a movement seeking to murder jewish children with the same folks at the helm as before. For Jews this is a big leap, but in my view, if the Jews see these folks in BDS churches and euro govs as the murderers of Jewish children then they can focus on realistically solving the problems.

    I have already for years blah blah blahed to settle jews, transfer hostiles, annex land etc etc etc. but I realize the jews are their own biggest obstruction and worst enemy. All the libels and frauds concerning israel are “authenticated” by israelis. Were this not so, there would not be such a high percentage of belief in the BDS lies. Those israelis are responsible for the murder of jewish children in france and when this reality is grasped the rest of Israel will know how to deal with it.

    My posts have goals, designed to speak to jews and show them their perspective is suicidal and inaccurate. I present my views in a light which is not usually broached but if those views were accepted the jews would act realistically. The problem is not telling jews and israelis to settle YS, transfer hostiles, kill the enemy….as if no one ever thought of it before…… the problem is convincing the stockholm syndrome Jews that their so called friends are their killer as usual. Remember, thiese are the same insane folks who allow the euro jew killers free reign to incite arabs and incite terror in YS while helping them build; they should be deporting, jailing or killing those euros instead.

  2. Those churches aren’t true Christians. No true Christian is ever against Israel. The Christian’s salvation comes through the Jews in the Israel messiah.

  3. I am well aware of recent attempts by the United Church of Christ, the Episcopal Church and the Mennonite Church in the U.S. to divest from businesses that do business with Israel and the settlements. That said, the author of this article is very misleading to totalize “Christians” as monolithic in their “anti-Israel” actions. Those three denominations are notoriously left-wing ideologically among their leadership. Not so their actual members. That’s why those denominations are losing members hand-over-fist. The denominational leadership has been captured by devoted lefties who are far more consistent with their ideological leftism than they are with their Christian beliefs. They essentially find whatever “Christian” belief will justify their leftism. The laity are of a different mindset. Just today an article appears that notes Democrats (aka leftists) are far more likely to be critical of Israel and supportive of BDS. That’s the leadership of these denominations. There are other, more conservative Christian denominations that are very supportive of Israel. I’ve argued in classes I’ve taught that Osama bin Laden was far more committed to his political ideology than to the basic tenets of Islam. I would argue the same about the leadership of the UCC, the Episcopal Church and the Mennonites.

  4. @ bernard ross:
    Meotti is wasting his breath, and so are you. Concentrate on strategies to build up the power, population size, economic strength, and land area of the State of Israel. Power always trumps righteousness, and in nearly all cases, power determines the standards of how righteousness is even defined, to say nothing of how it rules.

  5. Netherlands: Muslims riot, chant against “Jewish murderers”
    http://www.jihadwatch.org/2015/07/netherlands-muslims-riot-chant-against-jewish-murderers

    The 2000 year habit of libeling the jews to incite pogroms is alive and well. I do not blame the rioting muslims as much as the covert despicable euros: their BDS supersessionist churches, their govs, their media. It is the euros who keep repeating the big lie and making sure that, like goebbels, it is internalized by others whom they fund to kill the Jews. It is these lies which the euros spread which murdered the Jewish children in france. Why wouldn’t the muslims believe these lies? I expect that from the muslims but the euros pretend to something else: while conducting holocaust ceremonies and putting a couple more cops on synaguages to cover their murderous tracks they expolit every possible institution and resuource which they control to accuse the jews of murder, apartheid, greed….. the only thing they left out is their old canard of baking blood into matzoh but they make sure their muslim proxies publish that. the Jews must awake to see from where these libels are coming.
    esau incites ishmael to murder jacob
    a simple ancient concept as real as a DNA chemical formula
    Ishmael saw that esau was insane

    It is a kind of anti-Semitism which cannot be explained by rational concepts. It is a virus, a malady, a disease, a cancer which will ultimately rebound against Christians themselves.

    it can be explained by the most rational of concepts but is politically unacceptable. DNA studies show that folks can carry genetic preponderance towards disease and that can include mental illness. “Preponderance” does not always present in the outbreak of the disease. Environment and habit can influence DNA. These are rational but difficult to swallow when looking at the euro disease spanning 2000 years of swindle, libel, torture, slaughter and in spite of many leaving the church they are still enthusiastically, though shamefacedly, engaged as those still in the BDS churches. This points to something other than culture, it points to DNA.

    The current campaign of dehumanaizing the Jews aims to allow the euros to come out of their closet of restraint and take on a more overt and direct role in their despicable perversions. They wish to absolve themselves and start anew, after all they have gone to confession so why not resume their pathology? These schizoids are simply trying to destroy the small seed of conscience they inherited from their orginal hijack of the Jews Torah. It
    prevents them from following their uncontrollable urges written into their program.

    The problem is that the Jews see the euros as human and this blinds them to the facts of their uncontrollable behaviors. The Jews cannot believe that anything human can be so reliably and predictably evil so the Jews stick their heads in the sand and keep trying to reason with congenital lunatics who are out of control of their behavior. The Jews engage the lunatics rationalizations and narratives in a serious fashion rather than realize that you cannot convince lunatics with reason because lunatics can brilliantly rationalize their perversions. The euros are congenital lunatics afflicted with deep evil and the fool Jews are trying to reason with them…. theatre of the absurd in action.

    The lunatics want jerusalem and want the failure of the Jews in Israel because if the Jews are successful in israel then the 2000 year international business model is discredited and endangered, after all how can they allow this:

    the barren land of 2000 years now blossoms for the ingathrirng Jews and NOT for the replacement supersessionist christians

    if it is true then their whole narrative is a lie, they cannot allow it to be true and will engage in any evil to prevent it. In their evil bloodlust they sacrifice their own to the honor killers. The only Jews they want alive are the bought kapo Jews who reinforce their narratives and allow them to keep wearing the “emperors clothes” and selling their damaged goods. They can make deals with the muslims because they are engaged in the same MO of lying and slaughter.

    Why else would these churches, who influence the media and govs of europe, intentionally spread lies about Israel and the Jews which they must know to be false? Why?

    Either they are intentionally lying or the Jews must believe those lies about themselves. This is also the cause of the diaspora Jews who move away from Israel as they cannot believe those lies about themselves but they believe those lies about israel. Why wouldn’t they when israeli german owned newspapers and bought kapos authenticate the libels and call them truth? The masters of lies and propaganda, who have the experience of thousands of years practice, know haw to split up the stockholm syndrome Jews whom they keep in a fog of mental slavery.
