Israel’s UN Ambassador Waves a Bible at the Security Council

by | May 3, 2019

You see, there is no way for the Israelis to justify stealing property from Palestinian human beings with natural rights without being forced to retreat to mysticism and pretended super-natural rights that supersede them.

But even if that wasn’t absolutely ridiculous, childish nonsense — guess what? The Palestinians, not the white Ashkenazi European Israeli descendents of converts to Judaism from the Middle Ages, are the *actual descendents of the ancient Hebrews.

Shocking right? The Israelis lying and making laughable excuses to kill and steal from people?

Of course the real tragedy is that grown adult American Christians and Jews let themselves be impressed by such bullshit. When an Israeli politician threatens you with everlasting punishment in Hell if you don’t do what they say, that intimidates you? You think he knows God better than you do? That he is God’s priest sent here to tell you and your mom what to fear, what to believe and what to do? That you better do what he says or else you’ll be denied access to God’s grace and ever lasting life in heaven after you die?

Maybe these people are just cynically lying and manipulating you because they think you’re too stupid to put up a fight. Ever think of that?
