1. support for Israel
mordechai ,   jerusalem, israel   (12.19.06)
At a time when leftist profesors are teaching impressionable young people throughout America that Israel has no right to exist, it's good to know that we still have many allies in the U.S.
2. Yes,Muslim saying"First the Saturday ,thenthe Sunday People"
Alan ,   SA   (12.19.06)
3. Thank you to all Christian Allies.We appreciate ur efforts
Alan ,   SA   (12.19.06)
4. Evangelical Christians
Dave from Canada ,   Canada   (12.19.06)
Evangelical Christians always want to convert everyone to their way of belief- other Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, and believe it or not especially Jews. Whereas the Buddhists, Hindus, and Muslims are too big a target for them, and are too smart and especially have too strong self-worth and confidence, only we Jews are stupid enough to believe that the evangelical Christians just want to be "friends".
5. Yes, thank you!!
Chaya ,   Bat Yam (from N.J.)   (12.19.06)
Your work for us is highly appreciated!!
6. To #4:What do you know about other Religions?
Alex ,   Canada   (12.19.06)
Dave you may just have mistaken Catholics and Protestants. Protestants believe that God is so loving, that he will forgive everyones' sins. Therefore everyone will go to Heaven. In case you didn't know: there are no protestant missionaries!Why are you trying to slap at an outstreched hand? Have you endured so much wickedness?
7. ESAUV WILL NOT GET ISRAEL
BRAVO #4 SAY IT ,   AGAIN.........DACON9   (12.19.06)
8. They are not Christians
Fr. Raed Abusahlia ,   Taybeh   (12.19.06)
These Evangelicals are not Christians and they don't represent us as Palestinian Christians.. We are not against Jews or Israelis, we recognize the right of Israel to exist, but we ask them to recognize our right to live with degnity in our own homeland, we are not asking anybody to give us a favor and give us a gift.. we ask for our own Land, even a small piece (1/4 only).. If this Pastor lives in a refugee camp he will know how miserable Palestinians are living because of the Israeli melitary occupation.. Our Palestinian Arab Christians and we represent only the Christians in the Holy Land.. He dosn't speak on our name...We are not agianst Israel but against the Israeli occupation.. End the occupation.. ther is a place for everybody here.. This Land will become the Paradise of the world.. If you want peace and security, let us live in peace...
9. There are no Arab Christians
Pierre ,   Paris, France   (12.19.06)
The Christians from Lebanon, like myself, are not Arabs. We speak Arabic but we are not Arabs. Some Arabs from Holy Land say that they are Christians by occupation, they need Western turists and money but at home they are Muslims. The same was told to my friends in America.
10. #8 STOP SHOOTING ROCKETS: STOP BLAMING ISRAELIs
TAKE RESPONSIBILITY ,   #8 ITS YOUR FAULT   (12.19.06)
11. #4
Red Peppers ,   Caribbean   (12.19.06)
To Dave I say, all religions encourages people from various back ground to convert/re-energize their religious beliefs(case in point, recently a knesset member wanted a law passed discouraging older religious folks from pressuring younger ones to become more religious).We are not forcing people to submit or face being killed. You said Muslims and others are too smart and have a strong self worth,well if those who are sworn to your destruction,promotes hatred and spreads propaganda about israel and jews are smart ,surely evangelicals who have spread only good news about israel cannot be considered foolish. Personally as an evangelical my love for israel and jews comes from the fact that without israel and jews there would be no christianity which I am practising right now.
12. Xtian gratitude
manquds ,   morroco   (12.19.06)
But for what exactly are the evangelical xtians grateful? If they're grateful for the Jewish people and the teachings of the Jewish religion, then why are they still xtians? IMHO their "gratitude" will best be shown by accepting the truth of the teachings of the Jewish religion that forbids worshipping one other than (or in addition to) hashem.
13. What this means is
Brenda ,   Indiana, USA   (12.19.06)
that Pastor Hagee knows that there is an upswing of anti-semetism in America and knows where this will lead for Americans. And he truly loves the Jewish people. In Genesis and Ezekial and several other places in the Bible, God tells what he will do for those who do not bless the Israel. The Bible tells of People who were totally destroyed because they didn't take Israel's part. In America today babies are being killed by abortion and homosexuality is given free rein. However a person thinks about homosexuality it is important to believe what the Bible says about it. The Bible says that God just doesn't like homosexuality but that it is an abomination. Worse than simply just disliking something. God has withheld judgement on America for these sins but that will stop if we turn against Israel. If we pull our support from Israel America will fall. Britain was once the greatest power in the world but betrayed Israel and look where she is now as a country? The same thing will happen to us if we don't honor Israel. There are many missionarys that are not Catholic. I'm a Prostestant and my church has many misssionaries both in other countries and to the Native Americans in the Dakotas. What many people fail to remember is that the first Christians were Jewish and Jesus the Son of God was born into the Jewish people. For about the first 30 years the church was entirely Jewish until Saul of Tarsus renamed Paul began teaching to the Gentiles. This small group of people who recognized Jesus as the Son of God preached his message though the World and the Church grew until now Christianity is the greatest religion in the World. This small group of people who first made up the Christian Church did all this without cutting off anyone's head or putting a sword though them. It was done just by teaching the message of the Gospel that Jesus is the son of God and he came to us to be our sacifice and save us from our sins. All we have to do to gain eternal life is believe on him. And part of the Message was/is that God loves us. Does it say anywhere in the Koran that Allah loves us, just loves us and we don't have to do anything for that love but just believe in Jesus and confess our sins and we are children of God?
14. Fr Raed Abusahlia
SAM ,   USA   (12.19.06)
If you are not against Israel then what is your problem with this show of support? It seems to me that you are saying Christians are better off under Arab muslim control! (Dhimmi?)? Really? You liked being occupied by Jordan and Egypt better? You need to ask why there are refugee camps and why didn't the rich Arab states that "support" the "Palistinian " cause didnt do something about them. You need to ask why did Arafat have $30 Billion in HIS bank account when that would have been more than sufficient to rid the country of these camps and uplift the people. Ask why Arafat's Christian wife lives so high while others live in squaller. For the life of me, I don't understand why you hate Israeli occupation when the Israeli's withdrew totally forom Gaza and were planning to do the same. Isn't that what you want? Ask why did HAMAS still attack Israel when they were leaving the territories. Lastly, as a "Christian" do you not know that Satan will not win in the end? Do you not realize when Jesus Christ comes he will be comming to save Israel? Ask yourself what side do you want to be on. Hopefully, it will be on the side of the lord. Praise the lord. This is a great thing that is happening
15. Red Peppers
SAM ,   USA   (12.19.06)
Praise god, brother You said it all
16. Fr. Raed Abusahlia
Jane   (12.19.06)
If everyone had your attitude, we WOULD have peace and brotherhood. The problem, with little exception, is not with Christian Palestinians.
17. True Christanity
david ,   redmond Oregon, USA   (12.19.06)
Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus Christ) loves all people. He loves the Palistinains, Isralis, Americans, Russians, ALL PEOPLE. If we don't love our brothers of all nations, we don't have the love of Yeshua in our hearts. We should all humble ourselves before G-D and beg forgiveness for the hatred and violence in our hearts. We should be feeding and clothing one another, not killing one another. When will we wake up? I read these talkbacks and see the hatred and it breaks my heart. May G-D have mercy on our blinded souls. Little Children, Love one another!
18. Pierre; Thanks for confirming what I've always suspected.
Daisy ,   USA   (12.19.06)
The Arab who call themselves Christians are really Muslims.
19. To #4 Dave from Canada
Jose FARIAS ,   Sao Paulo - BRASIL   (12.19.06)
You said it, and I support you. Hannukah Sameach
20. Honoring Israel?
Pat ,   St. Paul   (12.19.06)
Romans 2:28-29 states, "For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: but he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit." Seems to me that the wrong chosen people are being honored.
21. Pastor Hagee Organize GLOBAL Street PROTESTS
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (12.20.06)
against a global Islamic Terror State in Israel - a state dedicated to Jewish annihilation.
22. Fr. Raed Abusahlia
Brenda ,   Indiana, USA   (12.20.06)
The Palenstinians weren't put in those camps by the Israeli people. Arabs put them there and they are the ones who are keeping them there. It gives them more ammunition to use against the Israeli people by saying they are the cause of this. If the Arabs in that part of the world loved other Arabs so much why aren't they helping the Palestinians? Where is all the money Arafat got from America and other countries for the Palestinians? His widow and other family members are living high in other countries and using this money. So read history and don't blame the Israeli's for something they have not done.
23. Religion
US Navy Veteran ,   Portland USA   (12.20.06)
I believe that ALL religion is evil as it only serves to divide us ALL and just creates needless wars. We are ONE planet and we ALL need to live we each other peacefully in ONE big community!
24. Going Bed with the devil
1.5 Billion Muslims   (12.20.06)

Reality Check , World
25. Hagee's manifesto is genocide
Marilyn ,   Adelaide, Australia   (12.20.06)
Hagee's manifesto is to herd all the Jews into Israel so they can be slaughtered. You want this pigs support?
26. Big appreciation THANKS
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (12.20.06)
27. Christians to honor israel
Jon ,   usa   (12.20.06)
Just remember what happens if you don't Accept Christ.
28. # 25
Eric ,   USA   (12.22.06)
# 25 You have no idea what you are even saying. You do not know Pastor Hagee's heart. My pastors are also part of Pastor Hagee's Org. There heart is to see the Jewish People at peace in there Promiced Land.
29. Not trying to convert Jewish people
Gina ,   USA   (12.26.06)
To address Dave from Canada...I just watched an interview with John Hagee and he isn't trying to convert the Jewish people. He just believes, as do all true Christians, that by blessing Israel we will be blessed ourselves.
30. #23 No G-d, No Peace
grandmother ,   USA   (12.30.06)
For a veteran, you speak foolishly. Have you learned nothing? Look at the atheistic countries (no religion)...do they live in peace?? Know G-d, know peace.
