I believe in taking a look at this in an Erasmusian way.
On the one side, the Israeli government has been abusive; not just of Muslims, but of Christians. They claim to do all of this in the name of defense, yet; looking through the historical rise of Israel in the 20th century, it’s been the Israelites who’ve always struck first. This bodes ill, since the rules of war are based primarily on “Whoever cast the first punch is the bad guy.” Other countries simply ignore the pleas made from people across the Near-East on Israel’s tactics. Israel claims they warn citizens of bombings, yet when you look in Al Jazeera, the citizens are stating differently. This is a war crime.
The Israeli government also serves as a vessel for corrupt Jews across the globe. Whenever one is in trouble, they simply state Israeli citizenship and they’re let free; no matter the crime. It’s also well known that Jews move around any country to commit assassinations for political or domestic reasons. I remember the case of a former Nazi living in Brazil who was murdered in the 70s. The man was in another country, what right does the Israeli government have to enter into another land and murder someone? This is a loop hole that’s simply unacceptable.
Israel also seems to keep stating themselves as victims; usually stating Hitler in the process, yet they also, nearly, or perhaps actually, hypocritically, behave in a manner that’s wrong against their neighbors. Disconnecting certain groups from the Holy Land; whether out of racism or prejudice, I can’t say, but the excuse of “It’s for defense” is becoming just that, an excuse.
Another issue I have is how many Jews simply don’t practice being Jewish. They maintain themselves as people who were born Jews, but know very little about being Jewish. They keep the Religion because it carries political weight and that has to be the highest form of evil from the ones I’ve listed on Israel’s faults. If you’re going to be something, at least be it well, don’t simply call yourself that, not knowing anything about it. Jews should be Jews and not say they are and not be it.
Now while the Israelites are bad. The Muslims are nearly equally worst, or even worst.
Lack of freedoms, stonings, beatings, persecutions, stubbornness against cooperation, imposing Sharia Law; including in Europe and other non-Islamic countries, disrespecting other people of other religions, the taking of hostages and executions. The list just goes on.
While the Israelites may do one bad thing, the Muslims are merely destroying their cause by their suicide bombings and their unwillingness to negotiate unless it’s on their own terms. They’re simply just not fit to lead a country of their own as they are.
My estimate of the situation is: I would side with neither. They’re both bad.
However, the Muslims wish to murder all of the Jews. On that case, I would say that siding with the Jews would be humane; in that case only.
I simply can’t see God with either one.
