2. Don't they know Bush is BETRAYING Israel ???
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (10.27.06)
Article: we stand behind (President) Bush," said Tipton, Do they not know that Pres. Bush wants to give away half of the JEWISH Holy Land to Islam??? Ynet, tell them to read Ynet and find out what is going on!
3. Too bad
John ,   USA   (10.27.06)
These are the people who Bush and Co. are happy to accept support and donations from, but they secretly refer to them as the 'kooks'. Israel should know that these people think they are the voice of God, but don't seem to know what being Christian is all about.
4. kol hakavod!!!!
v. n.y. ,   usa   (10.27.06)
may god bless your effort in your solidarity with the state of israel. there are lots of people out there who believe your mission is a joke. however, israelis don't and we do need all the political support we can get in these hard times. thanks from the bottom of each israeli heart!
5. Bless These Beautiful People
Shuli ,   Cleveland, USA   (10.27.06)
Thank God for people like this, who are more Zionist than any Jew I know, Israeli Jews included. Israel must do all it can to foster and grow this special relationship.
6. God bless Israel...

7. Blushing :)
Darren ,   Tampa, FL USA   (10.27.06)
"We had to be nice to these people," port spokesman Yigal Ben-Zikry said. "They're more Zionist than any Israelis I know." - quote Aw shucks Yigal, you're making me blush! :) Yes I do notice that Christians (I'm one too) seem to be more Zionist than many Israelis. I get perplexed when I hear Israelis want to give land away for a so-called "peace" and here I am wanting the Israelis to take ALL the land that is historically theirs, which includes far more than just Judea and Samaria, and given to them by "I AM". And I still feel that way even when I hear a particular Jewish sect say that going into a mosque is ok but not a church. I just overlook that! :)
8. *groooooooaaaaaan*
Michael Steiner   (10.27.06)
A leopard doesn't change his spots. Before we get all cozy with the Xians, remember what they've been doing to us for 1900 years. Keep them at an arm's distance.
9. Yes, but aid for terrorists would come right in.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica,CA USA   (10.27.06)

12. 8. You mean the Catholics
(10.27.06)
In the same way Israel is falsely and ignorantly accused of "creating" the "Palestinian" problem, so too are all Christians for the actions of the Catholic theocracy ("Religious Government). The doctrine of "Substitution" whereby Christians presumably "substitute" Israel as God's chosen and the accusation of Jews crucifying Christ is unbiblical Catholic doctrine. The Roman Government (the precursors of the Roman Catholic Government) crucified Christ at the instigation of the Jewish theocracy (Religious Government) of the day. Both doctrines are COMPLETELY unbiblical and instigated Jewish persecution throughout Europe and the world. Bible believing Christian's reject without consideration such doctrine as blasphemous and false. Evangelicals are "Bible believing" Christians and comprise every Christian denomination including individual Catholics who place scripture above Catholic teachings. The producers of this video are "Evangelical" (i.e. Bible believing) Christian's. Israel, Islam and Armageddon http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-3646238152925351957&q=israel%2C+islam DVD video quality. http://www.thebereancall.org/products/dvd051.php Because of scripture (Torah, Tanah and New Testament) Evangelicals view Israel - Jews in the light of genuine love, admiration and good-will; we are outspoken against injustice towards Israel - Jews because we view them as our spiritual brethren and greatly beloved by God through Christ (our favorite Jew!)

13. That is amazing
David Joseph ,   Orlando Florida   (10.27.06)
The Christians crossed the seas on an old WWII boat out of an act of faith and love. To bring gifts for the needy families and children. The LORD is truly with them. More Christian and Jewish should have hearts like them; with thats steadfastness and dedication to what the LORD says to do. Truly awesome is our GOD, Blessed be HIS name.
14. 3. What is "being Christian all about"?
(10.27.06)
15. 3. We're not offended to be called "kooks"
Evangelical ,   USA   (10.27.06)
we're offended at the rabid anti-Semitism, scapegoating, and deceptions leveled against Israel and Jews because we cherish the what the Bible says. Remember, MOST PEOPLE, including Jews, don't believe the Bible. But it doesn't change our commitment to support them - now that's "kooky". :) God bless.
16. Evangelicals
NYC Girl   (10.27.06)
As an atheist, I should probably be expected to cringe at the notion of Israel getting support from Christian Evangelicals. However, in a world where the hypocritical left has abandoned Israel and, instead, has sided with her racist, anti-Semitic enemies, I'm actually grateful for these Evangelicals.
17. To Linda: Demos will sell-out ALL Israel
(10.27.06)
that's why we support Bush... Bottom line, God does not betray Israel.

25. to Michael, no. 8
Neo ,   Czech   (10.27.06)
So, embrace Muslims - they treat you better..... Do you know that big part of evangelicals and also catholics had given off the replacement theology? Not all, but many. Do you know that lots of those "Xtians" love you simply because gratitude for Tanach and its blessings and over thousand year old heritage of knowledge of God? So called Xtians showed that leopard CAN change its spots - just because his CREATOR LETS THAT HAPPEN. But what about you? Don't need any change?
26. Many hearts and minds represented by this mission
John ,   Hilliard, Ohio, USA   (10.27.06)
Dacon9, I'm sorry to hear that you have such a hard time with this. We Christians do read the (old testament) prophets as well as the New Covenant. The problem is that you haven't, or at least you have not understood what the prophets have said. If you did, then they would lead you to Christ - the Fullfillment of all of the prophecies. You don't need to be Jewish in order to meet with eternal death after not accepting the Redeemer. It works that way for all of us, no matter the ethnicity or nationality. It should be no mystery to you that Christians come to cherish that which our Lord loves, which includes Israel! It is a mystery to me, though, that as it is mentioned in this article, the ones who would not give up territory are called the extreme right wingers. These people are much more in line with reality. It should be the case that those who would divide the land that Israel was given (for the hollow and false promise of peace?) would be called extreme left-wingers, kooks, etc. Nevertheless, my hope is that you will come to understand the full extent and meaning of our existence and accept God's Love and Redemption. Remember- the very first Christians were Jewish! You could benefit from their example.
27. 22. Jesus said it...
Truth ,   USA   (10.27.06)
Jesus answered, "I AM the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:5-7 http://need-messiah.blogspot.com/
28. accept od die?
Neo   (10.27.06)
Bible says that Jews WILL recognize and accept THEIR MASHIACH. No one will force you. Your Lord himself will come to redeem you after you will see that there is nobody else to help you. One day there will be no American or whatever president to stand by you. BTW don't you realise that we, Christians, should to live in holy fear first among all? If we are part of God's people (no matter what your rabbis say - just theoretically), if we are part of it, what Bible says? The judgement starts from God's house! We first should live in awareness of this.
29. 22 - do you know what pat robertson is REALLY saying?
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (10.27.06)
what he is really saying is that *gasp* he is a CHRISTIAN. yup, dacon9 has exposed pat robertson for what he really is. nice going! actually, dacon9 (whatever that means) shows that he doesn't even know anything a christian believes. obviously if christians believe there is a hell for non-believers, they would want to tell others about the way to avoid it. and, since he doesn't know, that includes someone born from christian parents who has not been "born again". if #22 would get his head out of the sand and not be so insistent on displaying his ignorance to everyone, he'd at least understand that this is not a conspiracy to "convert the jews" - it is the basic christian message that all christians are required to make known. but, if dacon9 wants to look ignorant, who am i do stop him? more power to him, i say.
