      They should have never given back the Sinai Peninsula!!! What did it buy? A few years of peace? At such a loss! Now Egypt wants to kill them once again. Actually it never stopped. The good people of Egypt were just under the thumb of Mubarak. Now they are free once again to hate Jews and to maybe do something about it! Land for peace DOES NOT WORK!!! Wake up Israel! Let the Palestinians have Jordan. It’s ten times larger than Israel any way and already predominantly Palestinian! Israel belongs to the JEWS!!! Leave them alone and leave them in peace!!!

When the full numbers of gentiles have come in, Jesus will pour out His Spirit of grace and supplication upon the nation of Israel, and her eyes shall be opened. We received the truth from the 1rst witness through the old testament. THe new testament is the second withness.

    @roseellen … you are wrong … if those 1967 borders are gone back to murders will be a daily thing. Palestine can have its state … but not there … Jerusalem should stay in Israel hands …Israel has the right to exist … I know you don’t like Jewish people … but they will exist … and many millions of people support them … the Palestinians do not want peace they want the annihilation of the Jewish State. And I … like many others, believe the Jews are God’s Chosen People … and I will do everything in my power … to ensure they survive … The Jews are not the aggressors here … the muslin radicals, and the left radicals are.

Where are the baggy clothes ghetto kings and queens with their boomboxes blaring music at 200 decibles? Where are the police cars flying here and their with their sirens screaming and lights flashing? Where are the million billboards cluttering the views? Where are the homeless mental cases roaming the streets with their carts full of trash threatening you if you don’t give them some change? Where are the spandex clad lowlifes froliking down the street with their fresh foodstamp card in one hand while towing a string of 5 kids all named “John” (named after there father)? Where is the sea of punks skateboarding over your feet and in front of your stores calling each other “dude” and “bro” while flipping you the bird when you ask them to leave? Where are all the teenagers running down the street with their freshly stolen shoes and CD’s which they paid for with what little honor and self-repect they had left? Where are the rich twits strolling the streets wearing $10,000 outfits because they value the name of the designer but have no clue as to the value of their lives? Where is the sea of illegal day workers standing in every open area yelling “Me workee velly hard…velly cheapee!”

      The program that is taking Glenn’s place is nothing short of absolutely AWFUL. They, Fox, would have been better off filling that slot with someone like Anthony Wilkow from Patriot XM-Sirius radio than the idiots that were on “The Five”. As far as I’m concerned anytime Bickle is on the air it is time to change the channel or turn off the TV. The man is abrasive and downright nasty.

      Jerusalem should be the capital of a palestinian state[with guarantees to all 3 religions] and israel should go back to the 67borders. Then there could truely be peace [and eventually this mountain of hate could be washed to the sea] and one state could exist comprising equal rights for jews and muslims and christian[let iit be called israel and let 3 seperate court systems prevail like in the arab mid east prior to western colonialism and neither jewish or muslim or christian numerical dominence would matter.

      Well rose, some more of your Jew and Christian hatred posts I see. You pretend that it would be “one state could exist comprising equal rights for jews and muslims and christian”. This is a really hilarious statement since the muslims don’t even give their own people “equal rights”.

      I was going to make this a different post but I decided that I just HAD to put it in with this one.

      This is a BEAUTIFUL video and it really is breathtaking. Unfortunately the scenery is blighted with the abomination of the “dome of the devil” being in it and being used as a fake “holy site” for the muslims. I say fake because this fake prophet mohammed never did teleport himself to Jerusalem (which means that he was NEVER in Jerusalem and that they just use this to try and keep the Jews from having their rightful area that was bought and paid for by King David). Anyways, if he never teleported himself to Jerusalem then he never could have then teleported himself to a fake muslim “heaven”. On another note, I would really like to see one of these brave terrorists (rose-ellen) “martyr themselves so that they could receive their 72 virgins, I would love to see them get there and find out that the only virgins that they get are 72 virgin pigs to be their own.

      Rose-Ellen get you head out of the sand. If Jerusalem was returned to the Islamic faith the city would be cut off to all non-believers of Islam. The Palastinian State is backed by Hammas and they have vowed to wipe Israel off the map. There will never be peace there. All the dreaming is just a waste of time.

      The only way for people of all faiths (including Islam) to visit these sites is for Israel to maintain control.

      “If Jerusalem was returned to the Islamic faith the city would be cut off to all non-believers of Islam.”

      There’s really no justification for such a belief. St. Helena’s monastery on Mt. Sinai is under Egyptian control and tourists continue to visit it.

      This doesn’t mean that Jerusalem would be in good hands under Palestinian hands. They haven’t done well with Bethlehem. The Jews are far better stewards than Muslims. Christians fare far better under Israeli rule than the PLO or Hamas. Even Muslim Palestinians do better.

      @IslesforDian

      Check pre1967 history and see what the Muslims allowed when they did control Jerusalem. I‘m not too familiar with the history so I won’t say either of you are wrong. But I do believe I heard that prior to Israel re-taking David’s city, Jews nor Christians had the access that you speak of. Some of you may even remember, please chime in. :) I was born in 1980 and for some reason the public school I attended didn’t even mention the six day war in world history. All I think we covered was the French Revolution… which was obviously the most important revolution the world’s ever witnessed. lol.

      Was there equal access to all 3 major religions then? No.
      Do all three Abrahamic religions current get equal rights in a country called Israel? Yes.

      From 1948 to 1967 Jews did not have access to their holy sites and even Christian access was limited, but not totally cut off. The city was held by Jordan then. I doubt Palestinians living in the Old City now would tolerate the loss of tourism if the city were cut off as before.

      On another note, listening to Glenn today I heard him throw out the figure of 5,300 years of Jews in the land and Jerusalem’s existence as Jewish city. This is simply impossible. That’s 1,400 years before Abraham’s birth. Jerusalem did exist that far back, as a pre-bronze age settlement, not a city, and certainly not a Jewish one. It makes me think Glenn doesn’t know much Old Testament history at all that he could throw such a blatantly wrong figure around without noticing it.

      For historical reference, the Israelites didn’t enter the land of Canaan until c. 1,500 BC, roughly 3,500 years ago. Jerusalem wasn’t made a Jewish city until 1,000 BC, 3,000 years ago.
