Gaza – Understanding An Absurd Situation That Is Illogical:
THE PROBLEM:
The absurdity of crying crocodile tears over the civilians in Gaza who really brought their own problem on themselves by voting into office a terrorist government, namely Hamas, full well knowing that Hamas has only one interest – the destruction of Israel.
Its ridicules the Arab world concern and sympathy for the Gazans when they showed zero concern for the Hebrews – Israelites – their brother descendants of Abraham when they were daily having rockets shot at them by the Gazans. Yet they are so concerned about the deaths of 400 or so Hamas terrorists and some collateral civilian deaths. This is lopsided concern. If they had been concerned about the rockets being shot at the Hebrews, and put a stop to it, what is now happening would NEVER have even occurred. Likewise, the Arabs show little concern that Sunni Muslims have murdered over 8,000 of their fellow Muslims in Iraq and other countries. Their victims being either blown up or gunned down, some beheaded. The victims? Innocent men, women, children and the aged.
To paraphrase Golda Meir, peace will only come to the Middle East when Arab mothers and fathers are more concerned about the lives and futures of their children than the destruction of Israel; to whit, when they take to heart Jesus (Yeshua) Christ words at Matthew 5:43-45, “Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” (Authorized King James Bible; AV). In other words, they need to practice being good neighbors, instead of being bad neighbors.
Yes, without question, the Hebrews – Israel’s – incursion into Gaza is distressing and many Arabs express rage about it; but this reminds us that there should have been equal rage against the Gazans’ continuous rocket attacks against the Hebrews – Israel. One can only imagine the response in London, Paris, or Los Angeles if rocket attacks were daily occurrences.
One group, Islamic Tube, had the nerve to send me a request for donations to the Gazans’, but if they can continue to spend money on rockets and munitions to foment terror and strife – then they need no donations and/or assistance. Let them instead spend the money of necessary items and make peace with their neighbors and become good neighbors. As I told Islamic Tube, “There are many people needing aid in the world today, especially the poor indian children in Guatemala and the poor Africans in Durfar, but the people in Gaza brought the problem on themselves by launching rockets at their neighbor instead of being neighborly and showing neighbor love as we all should per Matthew 5:43-45, "Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." (Authorized King James Bible; AV). What you are asking is not reasonable as it is like being asked to help a man or keeps hitting his head into a concrete wall - he and the Gazans are totally responsible for their own missery, now let them accept that responsibility and send aid to those who need it and ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CONDITION.”
THE CAUSE:
The cause is religious leaders who preach their own agenda of hate, greed, and a lust for violence instead of preaching what Almighty God (YHWH), the Creator of all there is wants preached – love thy neighbor and per 1 Peter 3:11, “Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.” (Authorized King James Bible; AV). Or Sura 5:13 AL-MAEDA (THE TABLE, THE TABLE SPREAD)[[see Sura from three different versions of the Qur’an]]
YUSUFALI: But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for Allah loveth those who are kind.
PICKTHAL: And because of their breaking their covenant, We have cursed them and made hard their hearts. They change words from their context and forget a part of that whereof they were admonished. Thou wilt not cease to discover treachery from all save a few of them. But bear with them and pardon them. Lo! Allah loveth the kindly.
SHAKIR: But on account of their breaking their covenant We cursed them and made their hearts hard; they altered the words from their places and they neglected a portion of what they were reminded of; and you shall always discover treachery in them excepting a few of them; so pardon them and turn away; surely Allah loves those who do good (to others).
All who think their religious leaders are telling them the truth and facts are just fooling themselves, it is not what either the Bible or the Bible takeoff the Qur'an actually say, but how religious leaders be they priest and/or imams or muftis or what ever teach the people is the interpretation of what is written either in the Bible or the bible takeoff the Qur'an that matters and governs actions. It matters not what the Bible and/or the Bible takeoff really say. People go by what they are taught by their religious leaders. Take the genocide committed by the Roman Catholic Church at the direction of their supreme religious leader, the pope, what mattered was not that the Bible clearly said at Exodus 20:13, "Thou shalt not kill." (Authorized King James Bible; AV), but what their religious leaders told them. Therefore, it is the religion at fault, irregardless of what their particular holy book, be it the Bible or the Bible takeoff the Qur'an may say. Neither is so called Christianity or in Islam are most individuals actions really governed in any way by what their particular holy book really says, but they are governed by the interpretation of their religious leaders. Thus, knowing this reality, one would be either just plain stupid and/or dumb to even bother looking at a particular religion's holy book and expect the members would conform to it. Take the Rig Vede and find me for example a Hindu actually conforming to it instead of the interpretation given to it by his religious leaders, like looking for a needle in the haystack per K.S. Lal, India's greatest historian.
In fact, there is an interesting book that highlights this fact, “What Does The Bible REALLY Teach?” All should read this book.
