31. to Sarah #2
Maroun ,   Lebanon   (08.19.13)
Dear Sarah, I think you need to have better look on the history. I don't want to give a lecture but in 1975 the Lebanese Maronite leaders urged (unfortunately) the Syrian regime to help them against the Palestinians/Muslims. Israel entered Lebanon in 1982 to make a safe zone from the Palestinian attacks across the Lebanese borders, to be honest with you the Lebanese Shiaa were happy at that time because they hated the Palestinian. To refresh your memory and my fellow Luiz Haddad, the Israeli supported the Druz in mount Lebanon against the Christians. Believe me Sarah we are all living in the middle east, if we keep talking radical talks we will keep fighting forever. I wish the Jewish, Christian and Muslims become wiser.

With an attitude like that Chris, you are not likely to have many friends.
33. True Christians don't fight
Vic Ocala ,   Ocala, FL, USA   (08.19.13)
Unfortunately my Jewish brothers and sisters, and you are, as we are grafted together in the promise, turn the other cheek and don't fight. I fear many Israeli's think of Christians as Catholics only and remember the atrocities that have been carried out falsely in the name of Jesus Christ. True Christians love all, their neighbors, their enemies, and most especially their brothers and sisters that are Jews and mourn the atrocities that enemies of Jesus have done in His name. God bless Israel and I look forward to the day the Messiah rules over us both.
34. #32...Are you afraid of the truth ?
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (08.19.13)
Seems so...oh well...remember the Coptic Pope...he is an Antisemite !

I can't say that I know much about the Copts. If their pope is an anti-Semite I certainly couldn't like him. Still, I feel sorry for people under the thumbs of Muslims even if I don't particularly like them. I think we need to at least show sympathy for people in that position and hopefully gain some goodwill. Like them or not we can at least agree that Muslim rule is a bummer.
36. #35 How right you are....
Phil ,   Ireland   (08.20.13)
It would seem to be a sad fact that much of the western world doesn't get what it is like to live as a Jew or a Christian in an Islamic state. And then they support the establishment of yet another one despite the clear abuse of human rights by the governing bodies.
