I HAVE BAD NEWS FOR THE WORLD. There is absolutely no way that Israel will ever be destroyed. My GOD said in his world that Israel would exist for all time. The whole world will attempt to defeat JESUS when he returns and be totally destroyed. IT IS WRITTEN IN THE WORD OF GOD AND IT WILL HAPPEN. THE WORLD CAN DO AND SAY ISRAEL WILL BE DESTROYED, BUT IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER

Bad news? I thought Christ was the Good News.
The other thing is that Israel did not exist from all time. There was an uncomfortable/inconvenient period of about 2000 years when it was on no map. In fact, it's only back in existence for 60 years, and could easily be wiped out again if her policies do not change.
Believe as you will. The excessive use of capital letters weaves no magic, and won't make things as you would wish.
Dream on.
When ignorance is bliss, tis folly to be wise.
Sigh...almost makes me wish Iran did nuke the damn place just so these mouth breathers would shut up.
But who am I kidding, I know they would just say "Well the Dome of the Rock is gone now! So someday the surviving Jews from other countries can rebuild Solomons temple as prophecied once the radiation goes down. Blah blah blah..."
So in a couple of billion years, when the sun has used up all its fuel and expanded into a red giant, burning up the inner planets into extra crispy bits, Israel is going to be left untouched and will somehow remain, floating about, serene and unharmed ?
(Although probably with the decendents of the modern cockroach arguing and feuding over which bit is theirs)
Can't say I disagree with the first part, it's very difficult, if not impossible to completely destroy a nation these days, nor do I want it to happen. Israel is a nation of well educated and productive citizens who can contribute to the global economy.
But god has nothing to do with it. It's just logic. Then again, when have "logic" and "fundie" ever coexisted?
"There is absolutely no way that Israel will ever be destroyed"
Do you mean geographically or like, all the citizens nuked from orbit?
"My GOD said in his world that Israel would exist for all time"
"The Sun is expected to become a red giant approximately 5 billion years from now"
And time is expected to last quite a bit longer than that.
Maybe you were thinking of Evangelion Unit 01?
My GOD said in his world that Israel would exist for all time.
Yes, because between the years AD 132 and 1948 there definitely was a country called Israel in existence. Yep. No doubts about that. PRAISE THE LAWRD!
"There is absolutely no way that Israel will ever be destroyed"
Wrong sunshine. Israel is in the middle of a demographic crisis atm, which is why it is desperatly building 'settlements' and bring more 'Jews' into israel, even if like the Russians, they are not seen as Jewish under israeli law.
The average israeli is peed off witht he religous right wing who it sees as parasites who are prepared to accept handouts and state aid, but by refusing to work, and serve in the army, contribute zero to the economy.

zOMFdG!!! That is bad news.
What will we ever doooooo?<sob>
At this rate, well it will be certainly God's nation when it had couple dirty bombs here or there.
And by bombs, I mean improvised nukes.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER
*stamps feet*
Dude, you're talking about a tiny country on an insignificant planet in a god-knows-how-big expanse of space... get off of your high horse.
We'd all like to think that our legacies will last for all time, but even stars die eventually. Including our sun, if you haven't thought about it.
Israel has only existed since 1948 (when it gained it's independence from the British Mandate of Palestine), and obviously it won't be destroyed because it has the largest armed forces in the Middle East (& a rumoured 200 nuclear devices).
I doubt that was written in the Bible*. So much for it's prophecies
*- Book of Armaments 15:
1- And the LORD spake, saying: 'Thou shalt exalt thy brother Uziel Gal, who shalt create for thee the Uzi 9mm, .50 cal. Desert Eagle and .38 Jericho. And the people of Israel did create such things, and the LORD saw that it was good.
2- And the LORD also spake forth: 'And thou shalt build the Merkava Tank, with which thou shalt use against thy foes, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. And the Chosen People did make Merkavas, and the LORD did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats and large chu...'
So, if I'm reading this right, the whole world will be totally destroyed when Jesus comes back, but somehow, in spite of the destruction of the whole world, Israel will be spared? H[w's that supposed to work?
Mudak: Actually, the very close of "Kingdom Come" in LaHaye's Left Behind series depicts just this sort of thing. God effaces the entire world, leaving a drifting Jerusalem, then recreates it in a moment, in its alleged original, Edenic form. And with the new Jerusalem descending upon it--the one the size of the Roman Empire.
Curious bit is that the thing that was initially supposed to sanctify Jerusalem when David founded it--that it was on Mt. Moriah, where Abraham tried to sacrifice Isaac and was stopped by Tzadqiel--my be spurious. Moriah's location was not well defined, and David may have declared his desired capital site as Moriah just to avoid having to set his capital at the less-than-defensible point of Hebron (i.e. where Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had been buried).

Israel is a nation of well educated and productive citizens who can contribute to the global economy.
It's a pity though, that they seem to think that bullying your neighbors and denying others basic civic rights because they don't belong to your bloodline is a good way to survive.
(and I don't just mean the palestinians, eastern-european and ethiopian jews are treated as second rate citizens as well)
In my opinion there might well come a day that they (the zionists) will reap what they are sowing, and I'm afraid it might just make the holocaust look like a sunday picnic :(
Actually Israel will never be destroyed because it'll just nuke whatever nation that tries to destroy them.
wow, that's a real intelligent strategy, so ... what do you think will happen when the other side gets their grubby little fingers on the red button ?
Mutually Assured Destruction only worked because both sides in the Cold War had the will to live.
Therefore no side tried to push the other side over the edge, knowing what the consequences would be.
And even then we came pretty damn close to a global nuclear conflict on several occasions.
In this case we two sides with a death wish and a lust for unproportional retaliation, I don't think real fanatics will let themselves be deterred by Israel's nuclear capabilities.
William Beason, in a nutshell:
I USE CAPS LOCK LIBERALLY throughout ALL my posts. I DO THIS BECAUSE IT ADDS EMPHASIS TO MY WORDS, IN AN ILL-ADVISED ATTEMPT TO MAKE MYSELF LOOK MORE IMPORTANT. YET IT IS ALL "A LOT OF SOUND AND FURY, SIGNIFYING NOTHING." Pity that.
Well that's good. Then the US and other Western nations should immediately stop sending weapons and technology and financial aid to Israel, and let God take care of it.
I know at least one Israeli supporting this idea.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
