I support the concept of a Palestinian State.

I also support the concept of the State of Israel within it’s 1967 borders.
I support to.

Only thing that makes me worry, is how many muslims are like Hamba.
 
There is an easy way to identify evil, regardless of whether or not the perpetrators of the evil are real or fake Jews.

In the incident when Jesus Christ (pbuh) went ballistic and threw out the moneychangers in the Temple, this clearly showed that he viewed usury as an abomination against the Lord and one needs only look at what has happened to the world’s financial markets to realize just what a great evil usury is.

Since Zionists control the world’s financial institutions and they simply refuse to abolish usury, then how can those who say that they are the followers of Jesus Christ (pbuh) support the Zionist state of Israel?

Followers need to actually follow the one whom they profess to follow.

There is absolutely nothing that Jesus (pbuh) said or did which is recorded in the NT that would indicate him giving any kind of moral support for the present-day state of Israel.
The issue of zionism is a problem.

It is a problem because the international community agreed to the establishment of two separate states in the middle east called Israel and Palestine in 1947.
The problem being that only one state was created.

It is an abomination that this situation has remain unresolved. In light of WWII, the international community rightly or wrongly decided that the jews needed a homeland.
This is mandated under the UN.
It is also mandated under the UN that a separate country called Palestine be created as well.

I fully support my Palestinian brothers in the quest for justice.
Jesus Christ wanted justice for all mankind too.

As an Irish Roman Catholic, I am also a member of the Palestinian Solidarity movement.
👍👍
I agree.

I can fully understand people from that territory being radicalised. They are forced to live under terrible conditions.
It is an abomination that people were evicted from their homes and houses in 1947 to create Israel.
The continued occupation of territory outside of the 1967 borders perpetuates that injustice.

The Palestinian people deserve full and equal recognition under international law in their own sovereign country.
It is incumbent upon all Roman catholics to support this objective in my opinion.

As an Irish Roman Catholic? Hahah! We know what you really mean!

Radicalized Muslims are everywhere. Not just Palestine.

I agree the Palestinians should have state. I just hope they respect the Palestinian Christians

I don’t agree with your generalisations there.
It is a lazy and inaccurate assumption.

Sir, when you say “We know what you really mean” you’re speaking for me also, and I really don’t know what he really means by that. Can you kindly enlighten me.

God bless

Oh, just a little joke about the Sinn Féin and I.R.A.!
 
I have never said that all Jews are evil, I have only said that Zionism is evil.

**33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. 34 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. 35 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. ** … (Matthew 12:33-35)

I do not believe that the man who said these words to the Jews, as recorded in the New Testament, is being anti-Semitic.

Sadly, I do however think that there are purported “followers” of this man who do not agree with what he has said in this Biblical passage.

How can they consider themselves to be his followers if they disagree with what he says… or with his action in fighting against this great evil called usury?
 
Oh ok.

well, at one time in my life I supported the Sinn Fein and the IRA also. I did’nt know the IRA was still active.

God bless

Thank you. The I.R.A. still exists, but it is now pretty splintered (the best known group being the Provisional I.R.A.). Interestingly enough, I read not long ago that Gene Kelly was an atheist or agnostic (though apparently he still thought of himself as a cultural Catholic; he had become disillusioned partly because he felt that the Church was supporting the Falange during the Spanish Civil War) who donated a lot of money to the Irish Republican Army in the early '70’s.

That is not very likely. Check out what happened to Rami Ayaad the Christian bookstore owner in Gaza in 2007.

Code:
 Jesus was criticizing some Jews, not all Jews.  Both Jesus and all of his followers were Jews as well.  And criticisms of some Jews 2,000 years ago says nothing about Jews living today.  

 Nowhere does Jesus say that the Jewish people don't have a right to live in the Land that God promised them.  When Jesus returns, it will be as the Son of David, the rightful King and Messiah of Israel.  Maranatha!  

 **I have no idea what you are talking about concerning "this great evil called usury" that you purport Jesus was fighting against.   Sounds like you believe in some anti-Semitic Jewish Banking conspiracy theory**.  :(
