Israeli Troops Battle Protesters in Syria, 20 Dead

MAJDAL SHAMS, Golan Heights (AP) – Israeli troops on Sunday battled hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters who tried to burst across Syria’s frontier with the Golan Heights, killing a reported 20 people and wounding scores more in the second outbreak of deadly violence in the border area in less than a month.

The clashes, marking the anniversary of the Arab defeat in the 1967 Mideast war, drew Israeli accusations that Syria was orchestrating the violence to shift attention away from a bloody crackdown on opposition protests at home. The marchers, who had organized on Facebook, passed by Syrian and U.N. outposts on their way to the front lines.

“The Syrian government is trying to created a provocation,” said Israel’s chief military spokesman, Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai. “This border has been quiet for decades, but only now with all the unrest in Syrian towns is there an attempt to draw attention to the border.”

There was no Syrian comment on why the protesters were allowed to storm the border, apparently undisturbed by authorities. But Syria’s state-run media portrayed the event as a spontaneous uprising of Palestinian youths from a nearby refugee camp.

After nightfall Sunday, Syria’s state TV said there would be an open-ended sit-in at the border, and thousands more protesters were on their way.

The protests began around 11 a.m. with what appeared to be several dozen youths, brought in on buses. It gained strength through the day.

By evening, the crowd had swelled to more than 1,000 people, who milled about, prayed and chanted slogans in an uneasy standoff with Israeli troops in the distance. The army bolstered its positions, posting a dozen armored vehicles and jeeps along the border road.

A small group of youths managed to cut through a recently fortified coil of barbed-wire and took up positions in a trench inside a buffer zone about 20 yards (meters) from a final border fence. Israeli troops periodically opened fire at young activists jumping into the ditch, sending puffs of soil flying into the air.

As the standoff stretched into the evening, Israeli forces fired heavy barrages of tear gas to break up the crowds. Hundreds of people fled the area in panic, while some 20 people laying on the ground received treatment. It was not immediately clear whether the crowd would return to the front lines.

At nightfall, crowds of people fell to the ground in Muslim prayer, and several small groups lit bonfires, indicating the standoff would continue.

Israel had promised a tough response after being caught off guard in last month’s demonstrations, when troops killed more than a dozen people in clashes along the Syrian and Lebanese borders. In Syria, hundreds of unarmed protesters managed to breach the border and entered the Israel-controlled Golan for several hours.

The May 15 unrest occurred on the anniversary of Israel’s birth in 1948, a day the Palestinians refer to as the “nakba,” or catastrophe.

Sunday’s clashes marked the “naksa,” or setback, the term the Palestinians use for the defeat in the 1967 Mideast war. During that war, Israel conquered the Golan Heights from Syria, the West Bank and east Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Gaza Strip and Sinai peninsula from Egypt in just six days of fighting.

Israel returned Sinai to Egypt under a 1979 peace accord, and withdrew from Gaza in 2005.

The Palestinians seek the West Bank and east Jerusalem, along with Gaza, for a future state, while Syria demands a return of the Golan, a strategic plateau overlooking northern Israel which Israel has annexed, as the price for peace.

Still, until last month, Syria has steadfastly kept its border with Israel quiet for nearly 40 years, fueling the Israeli accusations that Syria was trying to draw attention away from the months of protests that have left more than 1,200 Syrians dead.

Ahead of Sunday’s unrest, the army said it would deploy large numbers of forces, along with anti-riot weaponry like tear gas and water cannons, to prevent a repeat of the May clashes.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he ordered forces to show “maximum restraint,” but also said Israel would protect its sovereignty.

“Unfortunately, extremist forces around us are trying today to breach our borders and threaten our communities and our citizens. We will not let them do that,” he told his Cabinet.

The Israeli military said it used live fire only after firing warning shots into the air and issuing verbal warnings to protesters to stay away.

Protesters waved Palestinian flags and threw rocks and trash over the fence, and the sporadic pops of Israeli gunfire were heard throughout the day. The wounded were taken away on stretchers by groups of young men.

“We were trying to cut the barbed wire when the Israeli soldiers began shooting directly at us,” Ghayath Awad, a 29-year-old Palestinian who had been shot in the waist, told the AP at the hospital.

Residents of Majdal Shams, ethnic Druse who remain Syrian citizens while living on the Israeli side of the frontier, watched the protest from rooftops, booing each time the military tried to speak and cheering on the protesters. When troops fired tear gas, a crowd of residents—some holding Syrian or Palestinian flags—began to scream and hurl stones from rooftops at the nearby forces. Israeli anti-riot police fired tear gas and moved into the town. Village elders with thick mustaches argued with the forces, but there were no signs of violence.

Throughout the day, ambulances raced to the hospital in the Syrian border town of Quneitra with the wounded and dead. State-run Syrian TV said 20 people were killed, including a woman and teenage boy, and 325 were wounded, 12 critically. Hospital officials confirmed the casualty count, providing names of all the dead.

Capt. Barak Raz, an Israeli military spokesman, confirmed that protesters made it through a first layer of the border fence—the area protected by barbed wire—but got no closer than 160 yards (meters) away from the final fence. He said the army would “continue to operate” throughout the night to prevent border breaches.

He refused to confirm reports that Israel had laid land mines along the area, saying only that the army “took measures to ensure we wouldn’t allow any crossing into Israel.”

The army claimed that protesters threw firebombs that ignited land mines on the Syrian side of the border. There was no confirmation from the Syrian side.

The recent protests have drawn attention to the plight of Palestinian refugees who fled or were expelled from their homes during Israel’s war of independence in 1948. The original refugees, and their descendants, now number several million, and they demand “the right to return” to the families’ former properties.

“We want on this occasion to remind America and the whole world that we have a right to return to our country,” said Mohammed Hasan, a 16-year-old student who was wounded in both feet.

As a Palestinian living in Syria, he is likely the descendant of people who left or fled the area that became Israel during the 1948-49 Middle East war.

Israel opposes the return of these people, saying it would spell the end of the country as a Jewish state. The plight of the refugees and their descendants is one of the most difficult issues in any future Israeli-Palestinian peace accord.

Around half a million Palestinian refugees live across 13 camps in Syria, a country with a population of 23 million. Palestinians are allowed to work and study in government and private schools, but they do not have citizenship and cannot vote. In neighboring Lebanon, Palestinian refugees are largely discriminated against and banned from all but the most menial professions.

Things were relatively calm on Israel’s other borders on Sunday.

About 400 Gazans hoisting Palestinian flags and posters gathered near the main passenger crossing into Israel, but riot police from Hamas, which runs the Gaza Strip, prevented them from marching toward the crossing.

At the West Bank’s main crossing into Jerusalem, several hundred Palestinian young people tried to approach the checkpoint. They threw stones at Israeli forces, who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets. No major injuries were reported.

Palestinian organizers in Lebanon called off a planned march to the Israeli border after Lebanese authorities had declared the area a closed military zone.

    History and Bible proves that the land belongs to Israel. Why do people have such a problem with this, because they are infidels and do not know God or His will. They claim to know God, but their actions show otherwise. Christians believe that God is Love and what the Muslims believe about their God is proved by their actions. They have the whole Middle East to settle in so leave Israel alone. Now I wish that our President could say that! Posted by Rev. Daniel W.

      But the men of Sodom were wicked and exceedingly great sinners against the Lord. The Lord said to Abram after Lot left him, Lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward; For all the land which you see I will give to you and your posterity forever.”

      Genesis 13:17
      “Arise, walk through the land, the length of it and the breadth of it, for I will give it to you.”

If the MSM would publish, or televise the actions(or result of said actions),across the us borders,perhaps the viewpoint of many us citizens would change. One southern az rancher,on his own private property,has been gunned down,and killed by an illegal, who fled back to Mexico.A law official has been wounded in a gunfight with drug smugglers along the us side of border.117 illegals from Mexico, were recently found hiding in a house in a neighborhood in Phoenix,Az. Also found along the border was discarded books one of which was the Koran.(in Arabic) Does that give you pause?. We are engaged in war.Our borders are virtually wide open,go figure.

      @Lynn:

      Soros, if he is involved in any direct way, will use the situation to further his own agendas in the area; specifically the downfall of Israel. This easily could be the direct work of Iran, the Syrian government, or any number of fringe and radical groups throughout the area to turn attention on Israel and ratchet up the pressure for the world to turn upon them.

      If you wish to find the hand of Soros being involved, if he is, look to the shadows and the groups that are supported by him or his donations…that is the way he works.

      That statement says the core of the whole story; they were trying to breach the security line at the border of Israel’s territory and invade their lands. Actively trying to force the entry of people via cutting the wires is proof enough of their intent to breach the nations security lines…and now the supporters of Palestinians have another incident they can use against Israel, which is most likely what they wanted to begin with.

      “We were trying to cut the barbed wire when the Israeli soldiers began shooting directly at us”.
      Uh, yea the IDF is protecting the border.
      “We want on this occasion to remind America and the whole world that we have a right to return to our country,” said Mohammed Hasan, a 16-year-old student who was wounded in both feet”.
      Palestine was never a country. Calling todays action a protest is not accurate. Insurgency or provocation would be more appropriate.
      Palestinian refugees want to return to there former properties and the Israelis will not allow it. Other groups want to be recognized as a country with pre 1967 borders and understandably Israel will not allow it. Israel has tried to compromise in the past and always got burned. We are at an impasse with the UN set to make a resolution recognizing Palestine as a country. Oh, thats going to work out great. How will Israel react when the UN threatens its sovereignty?

      And, you would do what to people that were cutting the fence/barrier protecting your family from those whom have vowed to cause mayhem, plant bombs, or be suicide bombers to blow up and kill all of your family members? – Nevermind – your name says it all.

      The press is supposed to be the check valve of the politicians….the watch dog. It seems to me that the fraudcast media is more of the problem because they perpetuate the events through deliberate literary and visual provocations. They, in essence, perpetuate their own existence through the spewage of half-truths and mis-representation of facts in order to appease and deceive the masses.

      “Perception is truth”, and the left-wing, fraudcast media molds perception.

      Imagine where WW 2 would have ended up with today’s drive-by media. Better yet, look where the war in Vietnam did end up.

      BE A REAL MAN, TECH, and admit that like basically all non-Christian Arabs, you want Israel wiped off the map. You, AP, and the whole anti-Semitic world know that these are NOT protesters. They are NOT illegal aliens. They are INVADERS. Their intent is to take over the land for themselves. These mostly young people (because as you well know it is the young who can fight wars effectively, and the Muslim world has the largest youth population in the world), would not hesitate to use sophisticated weapons if they had access to them. Fortunately, they don’t. So they resort to political pressure, rocks, and their deadliest weapon: numbers. If they manage to break through the Israeli border, it will turn into an all out war. Everybody is aware of that, including you. Thus, Israel has to protect its borders, with deadly force if necessary.

      We have virtual open borders, and even though we are/were? the most powerful nation on earth, we have paid too heavy a price for it. Open borders is a policy that no other nation on earth follows because it is insane. In Israel’s case it would mean the death of the nation. If a mob came charging in to INVADE MY HOME I would use deadly force to protect it, and I wager, so would you.

God knew they would both stray and reject Messiah. If unbelief were an issue for God, He would have left all Israel to die in the wilderness. They are not exactly known for their faithfulness to God; in fact, none of us are: “If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself (2 Tim. 2:13).

      You fellas should learn yourselves history before you open your mouth and show your ignorance. God himself gave all of this land to the Sons of Abraham (Israel). It has all been stolen from the Jews, its in the history book. Im sure neither of you own a Bible but in Genesis is the oldest recorded land deed in history. It was deeded for all of eternity. The first mention of specific land allocated to Abraham is found in Genesis 13:15-17. The boundaries are not specified in this passage, but they are in Genesis 15:18. Just to make it easy on you, here is a map. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2xmHOoPqAIQ/SWpCmzRLrXI/AAAAAAAAAtE/yHjiIvn3sAE/s1600-h/greater_israel.gif

      Most of Syria, all of Jordan and the entire Sinai belongs to the Jews. If Johnny Jihad wants to try to infiltrate a military border, yelling “derka, derka mohamed jihad” he deserves to be shot as that is what he already knows is going to happen. Its like if you hit your thumb with a hammer you know its gonna hurt. Tell you what. Go to S Korea and try to cross the fence into N Korea, see what happens to you.

      You fellas are totally anti semitic, and anti reasoning. You are about the biggest terrorist supporters I have ever heard from.

      Once they started trowing stones and attempting to breach a militarized border they were not protestors. If they had remained 100 yards from the fence and shouted, held signs, and remained peaceful, then they would have been protestors. Remember Israel and Syria remain at war.

      Israel are Yahweh’s people, he will not forsake them, but the Kingdom of Yahweh has been offered to the Gentiles through the sacrifice of Christ…they reject Christ just like the Muslims.

      If Glenn Beck exposed that “Muslims” wanted to rush the border to provoke a killing by Israel, why would Israel do exactly what their enemy wanted? They need a war. 

      Israel needs Muslims to rise up for war and cause a war in order to push Muslims out completely and destroy the Dome of the Rock. That is Israel’s whole goal. 

      And no I’m not anti-Semite nor anti-Muslim as both are my brothers and I’m my brothers keeper. Therefore, instead of partaking in their evil works, helping one or other, we should witness about Christ to both since they both, equally, reject the Messiah Jesus Christ!

      If anyone who doesn‘t stand with Israel today will feel God’s wrath and those who stand will Israel will be blessed I ask how come the USA has slowly declined in prosperity since Israel came to existence with our backing? Where is our blessing for the support? 

      If Jews are still God’s chosen people, what are Christians?

      Do Jews believe in Jesus and will they have eternal life without believing in Jesus? 

      Has Jerusalem been divided before? And who felt God’s wrath when no Jew lived there? 

      Judaism was given Israel to provide the way for Jesus the Messiah. Jesus, God, scattered the Jews for not keeping faith in God and rejecting Christ Jesus who they still reject today. 

      Neither Israel or Muslim nation keep the same principles of freedom as the USA. Neither Israel or Muslim believe as the USA, Christian, and both believe the Christians to be infidels. 

      Jesus needs no one to kill in his name. Vengeance is the Lord’s.  

      What is it you believe Kryptonite, in Jesus, or in Judaism?

      kryptonite: It’s really not fair to continually call me a hater of Jews. Although I am race conscious I do not hate anyone nor do I advocate violence against anyone.

      I’m concerned for my country. I’ve believe we contain the last bastion of genuine freedom on the globe and I want it protected at all costs. I’ve studied the Marxist Revolution in Russia and I’ve observed with great interest the parallels between what happened over there and what is currently transpiring in America. Unfortunately there is a common denominator between the two. Although I’ve come to terms with it now, I can assure you there was no one more than I that would have wished it not to have been the case.

Do I get pissed and do I get angry from time to time?? You better believe it.. Like you said about yourself, I too am far from perfect. I’m a passionate guy. However the stakes are just too high to sit back and say nothing for I actually believe that we are currently living under a Jewish Apartheid in America. Stating that doesn’t necessarily imply that I hate them but I do hate the conspiracy. There are days that I’m extremely angry over this conspiracy and while it may appear that I just randomly hate Jews the truth is I don’t.

      From Okie. “I ask how come the USA has slowly declined in prosperity since Israel came to existence with our backing? Where is our blessing for the support? ”

      It does not take Gods wrath to experience the manifestations of the curse of the law of sin and death. All it takes is removing oneself from His protection by ignoring and rebelling against Him. Just reject His grace.
      The USA prospered greatly from 1948 on. But the increasing magnitude of those Americans ignoring and thumbing their nose at the only true and living God, the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob and then voting for politicians that appoint judges that did the same would have destroyed the USA by now, except for the sake of those who reverence Him. In addition the USA has taken actions against Israel by putting pressure on Israel to give back land for peace which brought no peace and was a farce. The Bush administration did this right before the Hurricane Katrina devastation. Never made any sense to me anyway. It was Israel that was attacked by the Arabs in order to wipe Israel off the map. Israel miraculously won and they should keep their spoils of war. In about 1939 Stalin’s Russia attacked Finland and took a piece of it. Why not put pressure on Russia to give it back?

      True Jews are still expecting the Messiah, they just do not know that He is Jesus.

      From Romans 11:25-29

      “Lest you be self-opinionated (wise in our own conceits), I do not want you to miss this truth and mystery, brethren: a hardening (insensibility) has temporarily befallen a part of Israel until the full number of the in gathering of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved. As it is written, The Deliverer will come from Zion. He will banish ungodliness from Jacob. And this will be My covenant with them, when I shall take away their sins. From the point of view of the Gospel they are enemies, which is for your advantage and benefit. But from the point of view of God’s choice (of election, of Divine selection) they are still the beloved (dear to Him) for the sake of their forefathers. For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable.”

      The Jews will be the evangelists of Jesus in the Tribulation. Jesus always intended that salvation be of the Jews as Jesus is a Jew Who paid the price for a new and better covenant. The Jews were never replaced. They are still the original olive tree. The original branches that can be grafted in. They will have the opportunity to see that their Messiah is Jesus.

      It was God responding to disobedience that chose to temporarily scatter Israel. Now it is God Who is restoring Israel in these last days. No entity that persists at inhibiting His plans for Israel will escape judgement.

      From Okie. “Neither Israel or Muslim nation keep the same principles of freedom as the USA. Neither Israel or Muslim believe as the USA, Christian, and both believe the Christians to be infidels.”

      Try living a life of liberty in the Arabic states like you can in Israel. Big difference.

      Okie,
      I’m tired, and thanks to Betsy, I have less than 1500 characters to answer your interrogation. I want a lawyer.

      Here‘s a link to a short article in re one of your Q’s: http://askdrbrown.org/ask-dr-brown/35-ask-dr-brown/109-can-jewish-people-be-saved-without-believing-in-jesus

      ==> What is it you believe Kryptonite, in Jesus, or in Judaism?

      Why the rhetorical Q? Is this a “God or the devil” proposition or what? I support Israel, not Judaism. Geez.

      ==> “Neither Israel or Muslim nation keep the same principles of freedom as the USA.”

      Who else shares our principles of freedom, for that matter? The Pilgrims fled England, remember?

      ==> “Neither Israel or Muslim believe as the USA, Christian, and both believe the Christians to be infidels.”

      “Infidel” is a Muslim word. Don’t be a dodo, now. Are you equating how Israel and the Muslim world view Christians? True, Christians are not allowed to preach the gospel in Israel, but you have been grafted into the Olive Tree (of Abrahamic faith), and since you are walking in the light, you know that their God is your God, and that one day they will open their heart to God’s Son. That should be enough to bond you to Israel.

      Have you been talking to a lot of ******* lately? Have they filled your head and heart with lies? Israel is not a theocracy. It is a secular state. Methinks you need to go to Israel with Glenn and get a revelation.

      Here’s a scenario for you:
      Suppose Mexicans came and forcibly took back parts of TX or CA, expelled the Americans and redrew the borders.. They were funded and armed by the Red Chinese.. Would the expelled Americans have any claim to the land that the past 10-15 generations had lived on? Would the expelled Americans have any reason to be upset with the Red Chinese for arming their enemies?

      Surely you see the parallels there. If you had never read a Bible or been to church service which side would you be on under the above given scenario? Would you side with the Mexicans and the Israelis or the Americans and Palestinians?

      13 For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry, 14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them. 15 For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? 
      16 For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. 17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, 18 do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you. 
      19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” 20 Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. 21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. 22 Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness,[f] if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off. 23 And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

      Rejection of Christ is the rejection of His grace. NO, the USA has slowly slipped from prosperity since “standing” with Israel. And NO, Katrina is not God’s punishment for anything. That’s collectivism thinking, same thinking as BO!
      Who is Paul trying to provoke of his own flesh in order to save some in verse 14? If all Jews will be saved as you believe why is Paul trying to save some? 
      Jews have been told Jesus is the Messiah, they just reject him. They reject GOD. The Jews will not be “evangelists” in the Tribulation as the tribulation has occurred under Papal Rome. Jesus is the tribe of Judah and ANY who do not believe in Christ are broken off his tree of Judah. Jesus fulfilled Judaism. 
      Yes Jesus scattered the Jews and the 2nd beast violated that curse and established Israel today, not Christ. The Devil wants nothing more then the world to be distracted and fight over dirt. God does not need Israel today. Only those who reject Christ do, whether Arab or Israeli. 
      Jews will not have eternal life unless accepting Christ.Jew and Muslim can fight all they want over a rock, idol, but a Christians job is to tell them both of Christ and not to fight their evil fight. 
      The God Jews worship is not the same God as Christians worship just as the Muslim God is not the same as either. Jew and Muslim Gods have yet to send the messiah. The Christian God, God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit has sent the Messiah.

      Christianity and Judaism do not believe in the same God. One believes God sent the Messiah Christ allowing you a gentile to be saved the other believes the Messiah hasn’t been sent. Which do you believe in? 

      Infidel is in the Bible and is not just a “Muslim” word. Your ignorant and arrogant. Your demise. 

      Those who believe in Christ are grafted into his Tree of Abraham, his tree of Judah. Those natural branches who do not believe in Jesus are broke smooth off. It does not say those natural branches are spared who reject Christ, it says broke off. What does broke off mean to you and if all Jews are to be saved who is Paul, a former Jew, saying he is trying to save in verse 14? JEWS! Why would Paul find it necessary to save Jews if they have salvation no matter what even thru rejection of Christ? You believe opposite of Paul. 

      I have been to Israel. It a tourist trap for people and full of what men make to be idols. I need no western wall to pray to. I need no tomb to be kept to pray to. I pray to Jesus the Messiah. I keep no idols before God. 

      What is the difference in BO‘s collectivism and Glenn Beck’s collectivism? NOTHING. If you believe we must stand with Israel or feel God’s wrath you believe in collectivism.

Both reject Christ’s purpose? Both use people like pawns and useful idiots and both are opposite of what Christ taught. 

      Why did Christ scatter the Jews, arrogance thru rejection of Christ. Jews had the mentality of the Pharisees, the elitists. Christ was not a rich king but a peasants King. First comes last, last comes first. Jews were scattered to be last, to force them to be servants so they shall see Christ as the messiah. Instead they held to arrogance they were chosen, were first of races, and by doing so will come in last. Judaism today is based off of Pharisee teaching and influence and that is their own words. The same Pharisees called Vipers and of the Devil due to arrogance, pride and rejection of Christ.

      => Christianity and Judaism do not believe in the same God

      Well, I am a Christian and I believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Elohim) who also happens to be the God that believing Jews worship. True, they still await Messiah, because as a nation they rejected Jesus. God knew this, (He calls it DISOBEDIENCE) yet remains faithful to them: The deliverer will come from Zion, He will remove ungodliness from Jacob.” This is my covenant with them, when I take away their sins.”

      If it were not for God, Israel would be history by now. If YOU want to reject them, the Bible says YOU are the arrogant one (Rom. 11:17->)

      => Infidel is in the Bible and is not just a “Muslim” word. Your ignorant and arrogant.

      You are being vicious, Okie. Nevertheless, educate me. Cite your source.

      ==> “I have been to Israel. It a tourist trap for people…I need no western wall to pray to…

      There are two sides to that story, and as I’ve said before, you have chosen to believe the Palestinian version. We can discuss that later, but it is a disagreement that will not be resolved until Jesus returns, so I think it’s kind of pointless to discuss this conflict. I don’t stand with Israel merely because of my faith, although it is unquestionably a major factor. I also see objectively how the Muslim world behaves and what they believe, and it repels me to the very core of my being.

      This explains everything! Jesus came from Zion! He turned godlessness away from Israel! God promised this as how to take away their sins! 

      The Jews rejected that promise, Christ Jesus, and thru their disobedience Gentiles are grafted in! If you reject the true teaching of Abraham, Isaac, and all Jews until Christ, you reject the roots. Abraham, Isaac and all Jews believe Christ was coming. Jews at time of Christ rejected him and kept practicing till this day that Abraham, Isaac’s God has not sent the Messiah. Jews today do not believe in the Abraham, Isaac God you believe in of Jesus Christ. 

      Judaism today is a false religion. 

      True Judaism is Christianity as God the Father kept his promise of Jesus Christ.

      Wait a minute, Okie! Wasn’t your argument that Muslims and Jews both consider Christians “infidels?” That is a NT quote, written by the Apostle Paul. You are confused, friend. I went back and researched the word. It appears only in the KJV twice and EXCLUSIVELY in the NT. So your claim that Jews employ the word in reference to Christians is incorrect.

      BTW, Okie, “infidel” and “unbeliever” don’t mean the same thing in modern English. Language evolves and connotations change depending on many factors, including culture. The word “infidel” in modern English is offensive and connotes an intolerance of freedom of religion, including the right not to believe in God. That’s why there is a new KJV where the word used is “unbeliever.” Granted, some people still like the old KJV, but the use of that particular word in modern Christian jargon is limited to possibly quoting two verses from a version few ministers even preach from. On the other hand, “infidel” is a common term in modern Muslim jargon. It is used to label non-Muslims in a derogatory and demeaning way.

      Your hostility toward Jews borders on hate. What in heaven’s name do you do with the OT? Tear it out of the Bible and trash it, since it is written by Jews and their God is not the same as yours?

      Except, Okie, Paul is clearly speaking about a future event. Following is the CEV, which is written in modern English:

      “My friends, I don’t want you Gentiles to be too proud of yourselves. So I will explain the MYSTERY of what has happened to the people of Israel. Some of them have become stubborn, and they will stay like that UNTIL THE COMPLETE NUMBER OF YOU GENTILES HAS COME IN. In this way all of Israel will be saved, as the Scriptures say, ‘From Zion someone will come…’ ” (emphasis added)

      You play the word game like a progressive. Infidel is an unbeliever whether Arab or Jew. You can argue your technicalities all you want but using your logic bad is good. 

      I said no word of hate. Just I believe Christ fulfilled Judaism and the Religion Jews practice today is a false religion. That the only way Jews will be saved is thru Christ. If that’s hatred, whatever! Hatred would be to think one race is “special” over all the others, even after this special groups openly defies God and rejected his son. Hatred would to be mad anytime one challenges your brainwashing of arrogance. 

      According to your modern English only some Jews are stubborn and clearly says they will be thru Gentiles time. 

      “ In this way all of Israel will be saved, as the Scriptures say, ‘From Zion someone will come…’ ” (emphasis added)”

      In this way all of Israel will be saved. Israel the people, Israel those grafted in and not broke off. In this way someone came from Zion named Christ so all Israel could be saved by believing in him. It‘s not futuristic He’s telling who the people of Israel are from the tree. Believers. The Jews who are stubborn aren’t miraculously saved. Your reading what you’ve had drilled in your head. Learn to think for yourself..

      I encourage you to turn the parrot off in your head and reread Romans 11 and think for yourself. 

      The beginning was Paul declaring Jews can be saved, God’s not wiping his hands clean though they rejected Christ. Paul himself a Jew was able to be saved and be Christian by believing in Christ. 

      Paul then explains it isn’t the Gentiles only way either, don’t be boasting. Judaism (roots/base) was belief of Jesus coming. Once Jesus came he fulfilled Judaism. Thus Jews have to believe in Christ or broken off. Grafted in Christians must believe Commandments and understand teachings of God of Judaism that brought Christ. 

      Those that believe in Christ and keep commandments is Israel as the deliver, Jesus, came from Zion, and washed all sin away. 

      Paul clearly is teaching in this whole chapter Judaism provided Christ, the only way to eternal salvation. The mystery of how Gentiles are grafted in and why stubborn Jews will be broke off. Gentiles found it mysterious the deliverer Christ died for them too and why the Jew didn’t accept him. Paul, teaches the Gentiles. Paul is not prophesying. Open your eyes. .
