      10 Palestinians Killed for Every Israeli is intolerable
      child_suicide_bomber Originally uploaded by BHowdy There are approximately 90 to 125 times as many Muslims as there are Jews [1.61 Billion Muslims to approximately 12.8 to 18.2 million Jews depending on one's definition of a Jew] so if every time Muslims picked a fight with Jews only 10 Muslims got killed for every 1 Jew that would be very unfair and intolerable to say the least.

Fulghum, Robert Wall and Amy Butler, covered a lot of ground. Among the highlights were: the elements of the electronic attacks carried out by the Israelis; methods the Israelis used to penetrate Syrian air defenses undetected; an Israeli claim that rejected any link between the Syrian and Iranian nuclear programs; and a re

      Israeli-Palestinian “Peace”
      I know many brothers and sisters whose hearts are now heavy for Israel ahead of the “peace” summit in the coming week. We gnash our teeth and cry out for Israel to be strong and not let be taken in by promises of false peace. Yet I tell you, that by the Word of God all these things shall have to come to be. So let not your hearts and spirits be troubled, but be encouraged that God is surely bringing to fruition His promises and He shall be for His people Israel. (more…)
