That this marks the 40th year of Israel's independence? Year after year.....pagan nations have tried to destroy her (Germany, Afghanistan, Lebanon).....our own united nations hates her (but wont admit it)......
This is God's country folks.....given to them by the God of Abraham, Isaan & Jacob many moons ago. And the bible says that,
"I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those that curse you" - Jehovah God
True...God has used pagan nations to punish her for disobedience but....has never left her or forsaken her.....just like us christians.
So I ask again....isn't it wonderful how God operates for His glory?

Jehovah's Witnesses understand the bible to teach that Almighty God requires exclusive devotion; that is, he requires that worship and unrestricted allegiance belong to Him alone.
(Exodus 20:5) I Jehovah your God am a God exacting exclusive devotion
(Matthew 4:10) Then Jesus said... ‘It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.’
Of course, Jehovah's Witnesses are well-known as law-abiding persons. The Scriptures also teach that obedience is owed to secular governments, which the bible calls "the superior authorities". Of course, such subjection is RELATIVE to the unrestricted allegiance which is owed to God.
(Romans 13:1) Let every soul be in subjection to the superior authorities, for there is no authority except by God; the existing authorities stand placed in their relative positions by God
(Acts 5:29) We must obey God as ruler rather than men
It may be helpful for non-Witnesses to read all of Daniel chapter 3, and note the connections between the ceremony described there and modern pledge of allegiance.

Pagan nations? Don't you mean Christian and Islamic nations? And it was as a direct result of Germany's actions that the nation of Israel was created.
