Why are all nations against Israel??

Question

What did they ever do???

Answer 1

Because it is a Jewish state.

The very term anti-Zionist means a person who is against the very concept of Jews being allowed to have their own state.

Particularly in their cultural and historic homeland.

Answer 2

Historically, there has always been tension between these nations; the reasons are quite complex. However, with the re-establishment of Israel, this tension has re-erupted because God wishes it to be this way -- not as a punishment for the Jews, but as a way of preparing the Jews' enemies for judgement. The Bible contains many end-time prophesies that confirm this. Here are only a few:

Zechariah 12:2 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem. 3 And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it."

Ezekiel 38 (which speaks about the up-coming invasion of Israel by Russia, Iran and other Muslim nations): "8 In the latter years [end times] you will come into the land of those brought back from the sword and gathered from many people on the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate; they were brought out of the nations, and now all of them dwell safely. 9 You will ascend, coming like a storm, covering the land like a cloud, you and all your troops and many peoples with you.”

Psalm 83:1 Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!
2 For behold, Your enemies make a tumult;
And those who hate You have lifted up their head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

(Interestingly, this Psalm -- which is actually a prophecy -- goes on to name each and every enemy that is standing against Israel today.)

The Bible is clear that the end result will be severe judgement against all nations that seek to divide the land of Israel, or hurt its people.

Answer 3

The USA is not against Israel. Israel is our most loyal ally! Actually, I think you'll find the answer in the political section, not in religion. Many uninformed people think the problem is with religion, but if you'll read the history of the formation of Israel, you'll find the answer you're seeking.

"The Complete Idiot's Guide to Middle East Conflict" by Mitchell Bard, Ph.D. will give you the basics, but there is much more to learn!

If you are truly interested, read about the forming of Zionism starting with the Dreyfus Affair.

Answer 4

They aren't, but I assume you mean the ones that are near it, along with most of the Muslim nations. And the reason is that Israel basically took it from the Palestinians, who are like brothers to the other Muslim countries nearby.

It's like if Cherokee Indians decided to all go back to NC where some of them still live. But to accomodate all of the new arrivals they had to settle on land belonging to people already there. Believe me! The people already living in NC would be pretty damn mad about that, and I'm sure they would fight them. I would be kinda pissed off if a Cherokee decided to come along and bulldoze my neighborhood in order to make houses for some Cherokee to live here. I might have to move to SC to live, and I wouldn't like that at all. Yuck!!!

However, the Cherokee would say that they are just coming back to their homeland, and they would be right. The Israelis say that they are coming back to their homeland, but if you read in the Bible, they originally took the land by force from people already living there. And their rationale for doing so was that their God told them it was the thing to do.

I just don't buy the "God told me to do it" rationale.

On another note, people just don't like other people who are successful, and the Jewish people as a culture are generally sucessful for various reasons, one being their strong focus on learning and study, along with just having to have survival skills.

Answer 5

Israel has behaved no worse than other countries; there are numerous countries that are in fact far, far worse!

Your answer rests in the question of why is israel against every one? If israel has so many enemies why does israel treat others so badly!
