The October 2023 Israeli Palestinian War
I think in any war we shouldn’t take sides. There are factors behind wars we may not know. We certainly won’t get the entire true situation from the nightly news! “The first casualty when war comes is truth.” US Senator Hiram Warren Johnson is purported to have said that.
I believe it’s an egregious error for a Christian to support Israel as a nation. Most of the citizens of Israel do not accept Jesus of Nazareth as their Messiah, and some flatly reject Him and spit on the ground when they hear His Name! That makes them antichrists. The Bible tells us not to bless antichrists.
2 John 1:7, 9-11 2 John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist… Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: (Don’t say God bless you.) For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
That admonition includes Muslims too. But in the case of the Palestinians, not all are Muslims! Some are Christians.
The only justifiable reason for violence by a true Christian is self-defense of himself or his family and friends. We should pray for peace.
Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
I think it was inevitable that Hamas would again someday erupt in violence. Life in Gaza sounds like it was an unbearable situation even before the war. It’s one of the poorest yet most densely populated areas in the world! I hear that life for the Palestinians in the West Bank is far better than in Gaza. And I think that Israel may be reaping what they have sowed for many sources tell me that Hamas is a creation of Israel!
The following is quoted from https://theintercept.com/2018/02/19/hamas-israel-palestine-conflict/
That it’s sworn to destroy Israel? That it’s a terrorist group, proscribed both by the United States and the European Union? That it rules Gaza with an iron fist? That it’s killed hundreds of innocent Israelis with rocket, mortar, and suicide attacks?
But did you also know that Hamas — which is an Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” — would probably not exist today were it not for the Jewish state? That the Israelis helped turn a bunch of fringe Palestinian Islamists in the late 1970s into one of the world’s most notorious militant groups? That Hamas is blowback?
This isn’t a conspiracy theory. Listen to former Israeli officials such as Brig. Gen. Yitzhak Segev, who was the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s. Segev later told a New York Times reporter that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who himself referred to Hamas as “a creature of Israel.”)
“The Israeli government gave me a budget,” the retired brigadier general confessed, “and the military government gives to the mosques.”
“Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel’s creation,” Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades, told the Wall Street Journal in 2009.
Quotes from Ron Paul about Hamas on https://wltreport.com/2023/10/08/flashback-ron-paul-hamas-was-started-israel/
Paul’s comments came during a speech about ‘blowback’ due to U.S. intervention in the Middle East.
“What’s happening in the Middle East, in particular with Gaza right now, we have some moral responsibility for both sides in a way because we provide help and funding for both Arab nations and Israel,” Paul said.
“We have a moral responsibility, especially now today the weapons being used to kill so many Palestinians are American weapons and American funds are being used for this,” he added.
“But there’s a political liability, which I think is something we fail to look at because too often there’s so much blowback from our intervention in areas that we shouldn’t be involved in,” he continued.
“You know Hamas, if you look at the history, you’ll find out that Hamas was encouraged and really started by Israel because they wanted Hamas to counteract Yasser Arafat,” Paul commented.
“You say, Well, yeah, it was better then and served its purpose, but we didn’t want Hamas to do this. So then we, as Americans, say, Well, we have such a good system; we’re going to impose this on the world. We’re going to invade Iraq and teach people how to be democrats. We want free elections. So we encouraged the Palestinians to have a free election. They do, and they elect Hamas,” Paul continued.
“So we first, indirectly and directly through Israel, helped establish Hamas. Then we have an election where Hamas becomes dominant, then we have to kill them. It just doesn’t make sense.
I believe the creation of the modern state of Israel had something to do more with the acquisition of power and finance than it did with giving the Jews a homeland. It definitely was not a fulfillment of Bible prophecy.
Here’s some eye-opening statements from: WHY ILLUMINATI CREATED … THE MASONIC STATE OF ISRAEL
Israel would serve, not as some high-minded “Jewish homeland”, but as lynchpin in Rothschild/Eight Families control over the world’s oil supply. Baron Edmond de Rothschild built the first oil pipeline from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean to bring BP Iranian oil to Israel. He founded Israeli General Bank and Paz Oil and is considered the father of modern Israel.
Wow! I never heard that before! It sure makes sense. And the fact there are anti-Zionist Jews supports the notion that Israel is all about control of oil.
The anti-Zionist world-view of the ultra-Orthodox groups Neturei Karta and Satmar Hasidism perceives Zionism and the establishment of the State of Israel as an anti-messianic act, conceived and born from sin. These groups vigorously deny the very legitimacy of the collective political return to the Holy Land and to Jewish sovereignty. For them, this is the handiwork of humans, violating the Jewish people’s oath of political quietism. (Ref: https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/ultra-orthodox-anti-zionist/)
My friend David Wilcoxson wrote on his website article: The Truth About The October 2023 Israeli Palestinian Conflict Narrative
It appears that Hamas is a controlled-opposition group that was created by Israel’s MOSSAD.
A primary tactic of the evil ones is to create controlled opposition groups who carry out missions to cause a problem, to generate a reaction in an emotional outcry that helps justify a solution which was the desired outcome all along.
Israeli-controlled Hamas leaders carry out strikes against Israel which causes people to proclaim that the Palestinians are the aggressors and that that they don’t want peace. This then creates support for the Israeli army to drop precision missiles on Palestinian infrastructure such as power plants, water treatment plants, hospitals and schools.
