Politics is such an other world. In the Middle Ages theologians used to debate about whether or not Merchants had souls or could ever get into heaven. In our present age we might have the same kind of debate about Politicians. Personally I think my dog has a better chance of edging in past those Pearly Gates.
Yet, Gov. DeSantis was the only Governor who sent planes to Israel to pick up Florida citizens left stranded in that conflagration. That was a blessing for those people. I am glad he did that. Hundreds of Israel evacuees flying on jet chartered by Ron DeSantis land in Florida (msn.com) The passenger list totaled 270 people, including 91 children, all but one of whom was a U.S. citizen. There were four dogs in tow, as well. They spent 17 hours in the air traveling from Tel Aviv to Portugal to Tampa on a chartered EuroAtlantic Airways jet adorned with the motto “anytime, anywhere.” ... At the time of the executive order, the governor estimated 20,000 U.S. citizens remained in Israel. Sunday night, he said the number of Floridians might be 700 to 1,000. They were stranded because of canceled commercial flights amid the latest Israel-Hamas war that has already claimed the lives of thousands. --------
Yes, very good on DeSantis' part. I hope as more get red-pilled on Israel's bombing of the Gazan Hospital etc, the Governor will get that message too. About that, here's a poll: "The people have SPOKEN. Out of 713,444 votes, 91% of respondents say Israel bombed Gaza’s last CHRISTIAN hospital, killing 500+ civilians. Time for jail @Netanyahu." https://twitter.com/jacksonhinklle/status/1714771372449161371 I said, Truth will Triumph. Now I say, Truth has triumphed.
I don't mean to be controversial, but as far as I can tell a Hamas rocket that was fired towards Israel exploded in mid air and the fuel pod crashed into the hospital. But I don't want to argue back and forth too much about this. I understand people believe what they want or need to. Watch the videos of it being tracked and judge for yourselves. But anyway things are still uncertain. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67144061
If you watch the BBC, you get a certain point of view and certain pieces of "evidence". For example, the BBC can teach us how to know whether the "vaccines" are safe: https://www.bbc.com/news/health-55056016 You are right, people believe what they want or need to.
Well, it's our individual prerogative to be convinced or not, after we've seen all the arguments. What that Poll does show, though, is that out of around 715,000 Respondents, over 90+% were in fact convinced it was Zionist Israel that bombed that Christian Hospital. May God welcome those Christian Martyrs, and may He have Mercy on Non-Christian Innocents killed in that State Terrorist Strike. "The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) have issued evacuation warnings for 24 hospitals in Gaza." https://en.royanews.tv/news/45516/2023-10-19 This is what I was referring to earlier, when I said, sadly, these events are likely to continue for some time now. Wonder how many more alleged such "accidents from Hamas" we're going to see before 90+% approaches 100%. Lord, have Mercy.
Yes, and to complete the matter, there are Americans in Gaza too: "“We are American citizens and should be treated the same as the Americans who got put on planes out of Tel Aviv,” Source: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...h-palestinian-americans-stuck-gaza-rcna120616 He should get them out as well, call for a ceasefire, and for the supply of humanitarian aid and the end to Apartheid Discrimination against Palestinians, including in the matter of who gets water etc (which is textbook casteism/racism/apartheid etc) which has been going on for some time.
"ISRAEL’S APARTHEID AGAINST PALESTINIANS A LOOK INTO DECADES OF OPPRESSION AND DOMINATION https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2022/02/israels-system-of-apartheid/ "In May 2021, Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah, a neighbourhood in occupied East Jerusalem, began protesting against Israel’s plan to forcibly evict them from their homes to make way for Jewish settlers. Many of the families are refugees, who settled in Sheikh Jarrah after being forcibly displaced around the time of Israel’s establishment as a state in 1948. Since Israel occupied East Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank in 1967, Palestinians in Sheikh Jarrah have been continuously targeted by Israeli authorities, who use discriminatory laws to systematically dispossess Palestinians of their land and homes for the benefit of Jewish Israelis. In response to the demonstrations in Sheikh Jarrah, thousands of Palestinians across Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) held their own protests in support of the families, and against their shared experience of fragmentation, dispossession, and segregation. These were met with excessive and deadly force by Israeli authorities with thousands injured, arrested and detained. The events of May 2021 were emblematic of the oppression which Palestinians have faced every day, for decades. The discrimination, the dispossession, the repression of dissent, the killings and injuries – all are part of a system which is designed to privilege Jewish Israelis at the expense of Palestinians. This is apartheid. Amnesty International’s new investigation shows that Israel imposes a system of oppression and domination against Palestinians across all areas under its control: in Israel and the OPT, and against Palestinian refugees, in order to benefit Jewish Israelis. This amounts to apartheid as prohibited in international law. Laws, policies and practices which are intended to maintain a cruel system of control over Palestinians, have left them fragmented geographically and politically, frequently impoverished, and in a constant state of fear and insecurity.

"Pius also made a proposal for Jerusalem to become an international city, either under the United Nations or a related organization. The idea first appeared in the 1949 encyclical Redemptoris nostri cruciatus. It was later re-proposed during the papacies of John XXIII, Paul VI and John Paul II." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Pius_XII_and_Judaism#Conversion_of_rabbi_Israel_Zolli
Xavier I'm praying for you. You really seem to hate Israel. You seem to want to convince People of things . My prayers because this is too much. I won't be at this thread again.
Your judgment about me is mistaken. I don't "hate Israel". What I oppose is Talmudic Judaism. I love Israel and pray they come to Christ and are saved. I oppose what they're currently doing to the Palestinians with the Apartheid, as I oppose Hamas also, and the bombing of the hospital, and pray for peace. God Bless.
I am looking at this war as the fulfillment of prophesy. Neither side is blameless. It is the judgement of God for the atrocities being committed by humans. In the end, we are told there will be countless conversions of Muslims and Jews when we have the warning. I feel it is very close . . .prayer is the strongest weapon!
When I go before the judgement seat of God, will He ask me who I along with satan accused. We've had all the facts pointed out for us repeatedly on this thread. I get it and I am sure most of us get it. All God wants of me as Our Blessed Mother Mary repeatedly has told us is to pray,pray, pray. Let us pick up our weapons, our rosaries. I could put up many quotes from the saints on this, but I think you all know them.
