The irony is that Muslims and Jewish people pray for the same god to help them win the war.

The day after the UN declared Israel a nation, Arab nations declared war on her. That was in May of 1948. Since Arab nations are in the UN, there's plenty of irony to go around.

Israel is NO LONGER God's "chosen nation." That status was the result of the promise God made to Abraham (Gen 12) which was fulfilled at the coming of the kingdom (the church) on Pentecost after Jesus' return to heaven.

It's not ironic...it's the enemy. Satan has always had it in for everyone...especially God's chosen people (Israel). Spiritual warfare has been going on for thousands of years. Some day soon, God will put Satan in his place...the lake of fire!
God Bless Israel and God Bless the USA!!!
BTW...the Israelites (Jews) are still God's chosen people....AND as Christians, we are all children of God. We have been graphed into the family (root).
God / Jesus ROCKS!!!

For the last 1400 years there has been a war in the middle east.
Look it up Encarta, history of the middle east.
God cast them off as his people. After the death of Jesus.
Those people are very war like.

No irony there.
The world persecuted Jesus as Israel is persecuted.
The world persecutes Christians as Jesus was persecuted.
Nope, it is to be expected.

but God's chosen people under the new covenant are no longer the Israelites. they are anyone who trusts in Christ as Savior.

No, I see no irony. Have you ever read the Bible?

I see it as a testimony to God that the enemies of Isreal can't destroy it.
Muhahahaha...

There's no irony in it at all. It was foretold in the Bible.
