On Obama to sign AIPAC-promoted trade bill that legitimizes Israeli occupation and fights BDS So people are now claiming to be ancestors of Levites? They're becoming more unhinged by the day... On Video: Two prominent Israelis envision replacing Dome of the Rock with Jewish temple Given that Netanyahu enjoys Diplomatic Immunity and won't be arrested, but the 100,000 signatures automatically triggers a debate in Parliament, what happens now? Someone here has suggested that he is disinvited, but our politics are massively infiltrated by the Israel lobby, so I don't see that as possible . I'm thinking that this will be a 5 minute affair where its raised, then shot down immediately and on to other business. This is a victory for public opinion. 100,000 isn't many people in a nation of over 70 million, but it is significant for this many people to feel sufficiently strong enough to take action. On Update: UK petition calling for Netanyahu to be arrested for war crimes reaches 100,000 signatures Return is what Gilad has been going on about for ages. Its not about Jewish agonising and viewing the conflict through the prism of Zionism. Its about those displaced and oppressed in this conflict having their rights addressed firstly and foremost. Judaism, Jewishness, Israel, Zionism etc are irrelevant in this. On Calling Herzog and liberal Zionism ‘racist,’ Gideon Levy instigates a reckoning I'm actually very familiar with them in the UK. My father in law runs one. Polite language is often employed to skirt around such future events and when people are pressed on them, there is a great tendency to adopt vague theological positions so as to avoid such beliefs being challenged. On Christian Zionists expose their anti-Semitism at conservative summit in Iowa @Joe Catron: Its not a contradiction at all, but I admit that I wasn't being clear. People who hold to Dispensational teachings aren't given the full story. They get a overview of supporting Israel until they are Raptured up to heaven, then the Jews will go through "The Time of Jacob's Trouble" (this is when 2/3rds of Israel get wiped out). Eventually they will "look upon the One that they had pierced", meaning those remaining Jews who survive the slaughter. In other words, they get the soft version. If the full story were openly discussed and understood, I believe many adherents would turn away from this belief. On Christian Zionists expose their anti-Semitism at conservative summit in Iowa I'd say that the role the Jews play in the "end times" beliefs held by these people is certainly antisemitic. In order for Christ to return, 2/3rds of the Jews have to be slaughtered with the remainder replacing the raptured Christians by converting to Christianity and evangelising the earth. Most Dispensationalist Christians either won't admit to this or aren't taught it. Whilst the majority of those believing in premilllenial theology still believe in witnessing the Gospel to Jews, branches are of the opinion that it is unnecessary to preach to Jews as they receive Divine revelation of Jesus before they die and are converted anyway. On Christian Zionists expose their anti-Semitism at conservative summit in Iowa Gog Magog is prevalent in Christian End Times Theology too. Its encouraged as the Messiah will return. Based on that, now apply a belief that an inevitable war between the nations of the world and Israel must occur to your current world view. Its scary that current affairs are being driven by this. On Video: Israelis in West Jerusalem call for attack on Iran This is a good one.

It was this event that triggered my activism, although as a Christian Zionist at the time, my plan was to research and formulate a defense for Israel. I'm still suffering for my defection to this day, but I believed in the truth and at last we're seeing the truth will out.
