Poll: Americans say threat of terror on U.S. soil has surged under Biden
https://www.wnd.com/2023/10/poll-americans-say-threat-terror-u-s-soil-surged-biden/
What has Israel done for us that makes it worth increasing terrorism here at home?
If Biden would just stay out of it they would not hate us so much. Support for Israel is one of the leading reasons terrorists target the USA.
And Hamas treated the released hostage pretty well.
Israel is losing the propaganda war.

Which US are you talking about? Your boss Putin's version of US?
It for sure is not YOUR US since you hate the US and are an avowed communist so anything you say is tainted with your communist stink.

@athousandyoung saidIInteresting. Do you have a link for this " Abraham ... studied theology in Iraq." ? Cant seem to get info on that on Google.
Palestinians are a mixture of Arab, Greek, Roman, Turkish, ancient Iraqi, Egyptian etc but the original Philistines were related to the Greeks.
They are known as the Sea Peoples who were sort of like Vikings but 2000 years earlier in the eastern Mediterranean. They attacked Egypt, were defeated and then Egypt re-settled them in the area around Gaza which was empt ...[text shortened]... pt have with the Palestinians today other than they are poor and rich Arabs seem to hate poor Arabs.
@no1marauder saidI think the Oslo Accords failed because neither party wanted the keep to the stated conditions and move towards greater separation and independence. The problem is also Jerusalem which the Jews will never give up.
The PLO, the governing faction of the Palestinians, agreed to recognize Israel more than 30 years ago:
"ndeed, just days prior to the formal signing of Oslo I, both sides signed a “Letter of Mutual Recognition” in which the PLO agreed to recognize the state of Israel (prior to this agreement, they had viewed the country as existing in violation of international law sin ...[text shortened]... epresentative of the Palestinian people.”

@rajk999 saidI might have made a small mistake. Maybe Abraham was born in Iraq not studied there. Genesis 11:27-12:1 talks about how Abraham left Ur to live in Canaan.

wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur_of_the_Chaldees
Ur Kasdim (Hebrew: אוּר כַּשְׂדִּים ʾŪr Kaśdīm), commonly translated as Ur of the Chaldeans, is a city mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as the birthplace of the Israelite and Ishmaelite patriarch Abraham. In 1862, Henry Rawlinson identified Ur Kaśdim with Tell el-Muqayyar, near Nasiriyah in southern Iraq.
Ur Kaśdim is mentioned four times in the Hebrew Bible, in the Book of Genesis (Genesis 11:28, Genesis 11:31, Genesis 15:7), and the Book of Nehemiah (Nehemiah 9:7).
The distinction "Kaśdim" is usually rendered in English as "of the Chaldees." In Genesis, the name is found in 11:28, 11:31 and 15:7. Although not explicitly stated in the Tanakh, it is generally understood to be the birthplace of Abraham. Genesis 11:27–28 names it as the death place of Abraham's brother Haran, and the point of departure of Terah's household, including his son Abraham.
Ur is also the capital city of Gilgamesh’s Sumerian empire of Uruk (i.e. Iraq) and the originator of Western civilization. I may have made an assumption that Abraham, being the ancestor of the modern dominant religious tradition and from the original Western civilization was studying theology there. We do know the Bible contains quite a lot of old Sumerian religious material like the flood.
@athousandyoung saidRight ... now that sounds better. I need to have a read up on this one though ...the Bible contains quite a lot of old Sumerian religious material like the flood.

"The waters of the deep" (Tehom in Genesis 1:2) are Tiamat. God is plural (Elohim) in Genesis because the original story was polytheistic.
@metal-brain saidStalin/Mao/Castro/Pol Pot etc etc....
What is wrong with communism? It is better than fascism.
How were they different than fascists?
They were all dictators.
@metal-brain saidYeah I doubt it’s true, but even if it is non Americans cannot be traitors to America
Israel attacked our ship and killed 34 Americans. They are traitors.
