Hate to tell you that Israelis tend to be Jewish, which isn't a Christian religion.
Christian religions follow Jesus Christ (hence the name "CHRISTians").
The Hebrews didn't believe Jesus to be the messiah, therefore they're not Christians.

First: when did Israel become a Christian nation? Were you just speaking of the Christians living in Israel?
Second: It states clearly in the Bible that Israel belongs to the Jewish people. There is no word of Iraq being given to the Muslims. In fact there is no mention of the Muslims in our Bible. Even though both countries stem from Abraham only one people are mention as God's chosen people; they are the Jewish people. Many may argue that with the coming of Jesus that promise no longer holds true since Israel does not recognize Jesus as the son of God. Not true. Jesus did not attempt to change the word of God & God has not contradicted himself. The Bible does say that the Jewish nation would be sorely tried; they most certainly have been! But in the end, Israel does & will belong to the Jewish people.

I'm not sure why this question is in Politics.
In the Bible, Isaac was the promised son of Abraham, and became the father of the Israelites. He was blessed by God and essentially cursed with Ishmael.
Ishmael was the son of Sarah's servant, Hagar. They were kicked out. God blessed Ishmael with being the father of a great multitude, but Ishmael did not receive the blessing of being chosen.
And Christians are adopted into the family of Abraham, through Christ. But the majority of Israelites rejected Christ.

The promise of God is only to Isaac and his seed. The other mother of the other child was promised he would be a great nation but not the promised nation. I hope this helps. They are both great nations, Israelis are of the promise of God to Abraham.

What a silly question! The world's worst Jew is a thousand times more civilized and educated than the world's best Muslim on his best day.
Jews don't fly planes into buildings, they don't hijack cruise ships to murder elderly Americans, and they don't much go for punishment rapes.
God bless Israel and the IDF!

I have read the Bible.
I think it is an interesting history book.
Neither nation is any better or worse. They exist equally.
When will people realize no one has any definitive answers as to what exists if anything after this life.
So much inhumanity has been committed in the name of God!!!
How disgusting!!
Human beings sure can be dispicable!
