Dozens of threads get deleted, modified, or locked without explanation. Why are you special?
Your goal was to provoke and annoy while keeping the subject top of mind.

We all know you definitely don't like the truth!!!!
A fairy story to you, but 'the truth' to millions of people around the world - and a growing number of Americans who truly believe the literal Word of God in Biblical text.
I think a case can be made for every war being about land, power and wealth, with most of them using religion as a pretext for starting one. The Romans used religion as an excuse to attack Carthage; the Franks and Burgundians began the first European Crusade against the Visigoths using religion as an excuse to expand their empire. The English Civil War found religious differences at the heart of their division over the Divine Right of Kings. T'was ever thus.
The God of Israel is a jealous God, and will tolerate no rival for the throne of Heaven, as Baal (Beelzebub) and the Canaanites found to their cost. Power sharing has never worked throughout history, and we can see this dynamic playing out in the Middle East today as Israel seeks to expand throughout the region using religious rhetoric as a convenient explanation for why they need to expel Palestinians from their land and deny them the right to their own homeland.
That's one of the reasons why it matters to understand the motives behind the religious narrative behind the plausible excuses used to justify the attacks on Iran, as Americans struggle to understand why it matters. Trump claims 'America first' and Israel says it's making the attacks in 'self-defence' but nobody has actually shown Iran really has the capability to make an atomic device of any kind - neither have they explained why Iran must comply with these regulations while Israel is allowed to ignore them.
The discussions underlying this confusion are skimmed over in the article as they highlight the schism between Evangelical Christians who profoundly believe in the Rapture while others question why Judaism should matter at all to their cause. Both sides of this divide have sperate reasons for promoting this modern crusade while the divergence on key elements of Scripture force them to come to terms with the ever present dichotomy of thought between Christianity and Judaism, which will never be compatible in the long term.
Then the mods need to up their game and explain why they delete threads and which rule of the forum is broken in posting them.
Not really, no. I posted the article since it's relevant to current discussion within the ranks of Republicans and Christian Evangelists who claim growing influence within the White House, affecting foreign policy and relations with counties in the Middle East where Israel seeks to expand its borders at any cost...with American backing.
Imagine where we'd be today if Kamala Harris had won the '24 election. Would the war in Palestine be ongoing? Would attacks against Iran? I doubt it.
And yet king willy uses the exact same excuse when it comes to proving his not a foreign agitator. All is needed is a simple photo but. So far he has said that he is house bound and types alone on a computer and only has one hand.
This an open discussion in a public forum, so you could use it to explain why you think the thread is antisemitic or even provide the smallest detail on why you say i'm antisemitic.
If you don't want to engage in that debate then nobody is stopping you talking about something else on another thread.
Yawn. Your typical deflection tactic to avoid giving an answer which you have employed countless times before. So far, nobody has attempted to explain why even a tiny bit of the article was offensive. Is it because you are all embarrassed that you didn't actually understand the article before reporting it.
No, it was irony you numpty. To illustrate the ridiculousness of your position. How can posting a factual article warning about the rise of anti-Semitism amongst the Christian right in the USA be upsetting to anyone. The only people having a meltdown are snowflake right wingers who can't seem to accept the reality of what is happening in their right wing bubble.
Is it your position that we can't discuss the rise of anti-Semitism because to do so would be anti-Semitic. That would be extreme censorship.

@fillyboy has answered the question in post 198
and Odd's reply of "No not really.." to my challenge confirms it.
Your prejudice and political bias no doubt presents itself to you as balanced, impartial and logical.
He admitted why he posted it.
