..god gave it to you. Why arn't you living there?
A real Jew l;ives in Israel. Serves in the military. Will fight and die for Israel and his god. Eats kosher.
Where do you stand? What is your standard for being a real Jew? Do you think that Israel is a target because it has always been a target. Is your safety the reason you live in America?

because someone is ethnically Jewish they have to support Israel? I guess then anyone who was ethnically German was supposed to support Hitler?

I am Jewish, religious and pro Israel, but I think you are mixing up Zionism with Judaism.
What do you know about "real Jews"? Are you trying to imply that a "real Jew" is only one who lives in Israel? How so? Serving in the Israeli army is not a religious obligation. Eating kosher is a religious obligation but has nothing to do with Israel.

1. I do not support Israel solely because G-d gave it to us. I support it for other reasons.
2. It's pretty bigoted to think that "a real Jew lives in Israel." Does a real Muslim live in Mecca? No, so why would you assume real Jews have to live in Israel?
3. I want to make aliyah, but currently don't have the money. If you would like to finance the transition, I will gladly go. Why won't you foot the bill?
Rather rude question, in my opinion.

perhaps you MIGHT be able to argue that if modern israel was a biblical state that ran in full accordance with jewish law, but since it is far from a biblical state then there is not really much of a difference if a jew lives in israel or anywhere else.

You have no idea what a "real Jew" is, so sit down and shut up. The rest of your rant doesn't even deserve an answer.

Because He kicked us out and hasn't called us back yet. And I will die for my God, and I eat Kosher.

I'm an American Jew.. my loyalty is with my country first, then my religion. Where does YOUR loyalty lie?
