If God REALLY promised the land to Israel, why are they, as a nation, so murderous?

Question

Would God really support a people hellbent on Genocide? And why is it only written by Jews that this land should be Jewish-controlled.

Answer 1

Check your facts, dearie! Last time I checked, Israel does not have genocide or racism entrenched in its constitution, unlike certain Islamic nations and terrorist organizations. The Palestinian Authority is only the most recent example of codifying hated again Israel and the Jews.

By the way, the Jews didn't write the bible, God did. The Jews only took dictation. : D lol

But seriously, God did promise the land to Israel. It's the Arabs who are envious and try to claim otherwise. The history is there, read it in the Bible - start at Genesis 12 and read on. Also, if you want to know the truth about who is killing who, try listening to Israel National Radio online. You get a lot more of the facts and a lot less of the Islamic propaganda.

Answer 2

Last time I checked...the Nazis commited genocide on the jews. The jews are not the only ones doing the killing. The Muslim extremists in the region are killing many Jews as well. Hamas is a terrorist organization who is "hellbent" on wiping Israel off the map. Also..Hezbollah, which means "gods party", is also hellbent on wiping Israel off the map. Hezbollah is supported by the extremist government in Iran. So its not like Israel is just out there killing random people all day long. They have just had enough of muslim extremists pushing them around.

Answer 3

I don't pretend to know what God knows. As I understand the United Nations made land available for Israel after the second world war. If you can find a nation where murder is the norm, you have found a wasteland. In Israel, you see a thriving nation, doing quite well in a region where it has many enemies. I am not sure it ranks highly on places I'd want to raise my kid. All humans and all nations are capably murderous. I have been raised in a world where prosperity is better than violence. i understand that other people have not been raised to understand that, and so have been trained for violence as well. I have to state it thusly: Israel is ready for a world without violence. However, they are living in a world full of violence. Obviously, they must be ready for violence. What they must do is promote prosperity among their neighbors, but as long as they feel they need to defend themselves against attackers, no one can blame them for using powerful forces to defend themselves. Much like the USA.

Answer 4

Well he did promise that land to the Jews....

They have rebelled against God and paid a dear price. They have suffered more than any race in history, why? Because they rejected the messiah, Christ and they still do to this day. Despite all that, God did promise them that land through Abraham.

Just because they are God's people doesn't mean they will always do the right thing, even history shows that, but God doesn't break promises, despite what we do....

Answer 5

Genocide look it up in the dictionary "Dorieprincess", it means wiping out a whole group. Wild exageration does not help your cause. Hysterical distortion of facts and statistics is not all that effective either.
Your name is not Dorie it is probably Abdul or something similar.
Jihadis, Wahabbis, and Salafists are so adorable.
What about the Sunni and Shia tit for tat Mosque bombings and street murders of Iraqi civilians. I do not hear anything from you about that. Only Jews are killers. Dream on antisemite.
Dan.

Answer 6

And why are you a bigot?

Lets see, the Israeli's have been attacked by 7 nations all in one day and beat them all in less than 7 days.

They've been bombed to hell and back.

They've been cursed and spit on for almost 5,000 years to the point of near extermination. They finally get a homeland and they can't even find peace and you wonder WHAT THEIR problem is? Christ on a cracker, are you nuts?

They were just sitting there on their side of the border when someone dug a tunnel under the friggin road, killed 2 soldiers and kidnapped one more. Now, they (the Lebanese, killed 3 soldiers and kidnapped 2) and you wonder why they have a problem?

Answer 7

Gives us a break! Israel has always had to fight for survival! Hamas attacks Israel, Israel strikes back yet everyone says how bad Israel is. Israel was ready to give away the store during negociations with Clinton yet Arafat turned everything down. It was at the point that I realized the Arabs do not want peace no matter what.

Answer 8

im a Lebanese American, and all I have to say is please dont generalize Jews and make the distinction that its Israelis not Jews ... even tho Lebanon is being attacked as we speak, the Israeli state is to blame and not the jewish faith. and no we should never support genocide committed anyone, not even the Israelis (ironic considering the history of the Israelis immediately preceding the creation of the Israeli state) ... and this land entails the meeting place of the world's three largest religions, and god sees it as such ...

Answer 9

Are you completely uneducated? If there was and is genocide, it was done to Jews, and is still being done. They are not murderers, but are defending that little part of land that is left after giving it up to Palestinians in order to keep peace.

Answer 10

OK it is plain to see that yet another person has posted their opinion without any type of research....The people over their should be thanking the Jews for not following Gods edict that he passed when he gave them the promised land . He commanded them to kill EVERY LIVING THING which they disobeyed and have paid the price they are now back in their rightful land if you doubt me read the account of Moses and of Joshua in Deuteronomy and Exodus
