What do politicians, military people or senior administration figures in the West think they are doing when they work to support Israel through endeavours like Five Eyes? What on earth do such people think of the crystal clear words of that most famous Jew, the Palestinian Jesus Christ himself: “What you do to the least of my brethren, you do unto me.”
Joe Biden is a Christian and a Zionist. Alongside him are 210 million Americans who profess to be Christians. Yet millions of them have no problem with 2000 lb bombs being dropped on defenceless civilians.
Somewhere in their brains these proud Christians must have rationalised their defiance of Christ’s injunction and decided Jesus was a pussy. “He’s a nice guy but that’s not how the real world works.” Or do they in their twisted minds think “What would Jesus do? Yeah, he’d want us to support Israel to incinerate innocents lying in hospital beds in Gaza. Of course, he’d slaughter men, women and children trying to flee the missiles … yes, that’s what Jesus would do!”
Jesus can reply in his own words to all those who did not stand up and oppose these crimes.
‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me. Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.”
The Western world is falling into the moral abyss and as a defence mechanism I see many people shift their opinions to align with our increasingly depraved leaders. It’s frightening calling out Pro-Israeli Zionists in these twilight days of free speech in the West. Even to say the self-evident – Israel is a racist, fascist, apartheid state committing genocide – is unacceptable. It may be a bridge too far to say a few million more religious Jews should get their arses off that fence and join the millions of courageous Jewish people who every day are fighting the genocide being committed in their name. Same for the Christians. And the Agnostics.
The US and Israel may win the war; I hope not. They may ethnically cleanse the Palestinians from their own homeland. Or worse. I hope not.
But if they do, I’d ask all those Jews and Christians who supported this war of extermination – and I’d especially ask all those who took the coward's option and simply remained silent – to recall Matthew 16:26.
“For what will it profit a person if they gain the whole world and forfeit their soul?”
