Many of our young Americans on college campuses are being gaslighted in dramatic fashion by the anti-God, anti-American, far-left death cult controlling the Democrat party. Brainwashed co-eds believe that a violent militia is being oppressed by a small, peaceful country that most of them could not locate on a map.
The conflict between Muslim-dominated Arab countries and the Jews has raged for over 4,000 years. Although this situation is enormously complex, I’ve attempted to summarize it in the following ten statements.
The Truth About Israel, Palestine, and Iran
Israel is the only flourishing democracy in the Middle East. Jews and Arabs serve side-by-side peacefully in their own government.
The Jews are the rightful owners of Israel, the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea based on:
Jews lived in Israel seven centuries before the religion of Islam even existed.
Israel legally purchased the land from Great Britain. By 1948, Israel owned the equivalent of 500,000 acres of property.
Israel won a decisive victory against Egypt, Syria, and Jordan during the 6-Day War in 1967 to re-claim the Siani Penisula, Gaza Strip, West Bank (Judea and Summaria), Old Town Jerusalem, and Golan Heights.
Israel has made repeated efforts to live peacefully with the Arabs, but the Arabs refuse. Instead, they want to wipe out Israel and drive them into the sea. Look up the Arab League’s Three Famous No’s.
Israel’s economy is booming. Israel is one of the top producers of fresh produce and cut flowers, even though the nation is the size of New Jersey and the land is a desert. When the Jews lived in the Gaza Strip prior to 2005, beautiful and rare lilies covered the countryside.
But since the Arabs forced the Jews out of the Gaza Strip, the region is a desperately overpopulated refugee camp. There is a chronic lack of water, food, and energy. Over 50% of the people are unemployed.
Technically, Palestine doesn’t even exist. It’s not a state or a country. It does not have a government, police force, or military. The people living there don’t have passports, but they are too poor to travel even if they could.
Because there is no legitimate government in these so-called Palestinian territories, such as Gaza and the West Bank, violent criminal gangs terrorize and control the people.
The criminal gang Hamas is not oppressed. In fact, it is a well-funded organization that exists only to terrorize Israel. In addition to receiving funding from the communist country of Iran, Hamas steals all of the aid that naïve countries and organizations send to help the people in that region.
Iran, the primary financial backer of Hamas and all terror groups worldwide, kills homosexuals, oppresses women, and makes it illegal to be a Christian. The people of Iran have been revolting against their own government since a 23-year-old woman was beaten to death in 2022 for not covering her head with a scarf, known as a hijab. Look up the death of Hasha Amini.
Israel is surrounded by hostile Muslim countries controlled by state-run terror groups, such as Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and others. Hezbollah, for example, has positioned 150,000 missiles in Lebanon pointed directly at Israel.
Blaming the Jews for oppressing the Arabs is like blaming the Indians for colonizing the West. The exact opposite is true. Similar to what happened to the Indians, it’s not a fair fight, either. Iran is like the bully on the playground who enlists all his thug friends to pick on the youngest, smallest child, Israel.
And yes, Palestine needs to be set free, but not from Israel — from Hamas.
To our college students who support Hamas: please understand that the Radical Left is using you. They are exploiting our poor education system in America to oppress YOU.
The title says it well, what every American SHOULD know. If only the people who don't know these things would take the time to read and understand what you've written here. It's truth, but evil spirits and principalities have blinded so many in this country, they literally can't see, mostly I think, because they won't see.
The great cosmic lie of an Arab "Palestinian People" has taken hold, and the world at large now accepts that they were replaced illegally by the Jews who stole their land and have now colonized them. It would be laughable if it were not so serious. Most people protesting for "Palestine" here in Australia couldn't find Israel on a map let alone name the "river to the sea" they wish to declare "Judenrein". We are now entering the "Time of Jacob's Trouble", the Great Tribulation we are warned about in scripture - nothing will arrest it, and in the end only the Messiah, Jesus Christ Himself can bring it to an end - in the interim the deception will deepen until Israel is without a friend in the world.
