This is partly why I struggle to get my head around the whole religion thing.
So if Jesus came back, the Israelis must think he would support their position, including the settlements and essentially trying to force the Palestinians out?
It's important for me to say here, I'm not actually coming down on one side or the other. I'm referring to the religious aspect and how it's supposed to link with what's going on. e.g. you'll have a world leader responsible for hundreds or thousands of deaths, and they'll go and light a candle in their local church during a religious celebration.
If God exists, what do they (the leaders) think it (God) would make of it all?
The whole thing is weird. It's like watching some of the American politicians spout what is basically bile, and they'll end their speech with something like 'may God bless you and our troops'. Weird way to end a speeches that are often filled with vitriol.
