Why Don’t Jews Like the Christians Who Like Them?

 Why Don’t Jews Like the Christians Who Like Them? by James Q. Wilson, City Journal Winter 2008

Very interesting article regarding the Christian Evangelists and the Jews .

By the way it is a Pro Israeli article still it is very informative .

That's why I do not want Huckabee to go to the White house

  1. Interesting article. Enjoyed reading it. I just watched a movie that Natalie Portman is in called Free Zone. You should check it out if you can.

  2. n. americanprincess, did you mention Natalie portman by chance ? or did you know she is in fact not only jewish, but Israeli, and born in Jerusalem. Her real name is Natalie Herschlag. Still a decent actress though (See V for Vendetta).

  3. Hi Hani...I mentioned her by chance but I did know that she is Israeli of course. I had just finished watching the movie before logging onto Z's blog. The film is about an Israeli woman that does business with a Palestinian woman and her husband. It makes that point that they 2 races despite there neverending conflict are not so different afterall...the ending in particular is quite funny in an ironic way. It's something Middle Easterns would appreciate.

    Is the V for Vendetta movie the one where she plays the stripper opposite Clive Owen?

  4. sorry zeinobia for posting off-topic.

    n.a.p., sounds very interesting.

    No V for Vendetta is about some sort of warped image of Future England where a freedom fighter rebels against the system.

    The movie you were thinking about is (closer). See imdb(dot)com for details on any movie.

  6. @N.american princess , yes I heard about the film , she is the director and it is based best selling in novel and i heard it caused a lot of trouble in Israel coz of a kiss scene in front of the welling wall , I do not think it will be shown in Egypt but I will download it insh Allah ,Clive Owen film is Closer

    @Hani ,yes I know she is Israeli ,still she is real fine actress ,I real respect her seriously , I love V4 Vendetta , I already I wrote a post about it , it was a blockbuster in Egypt due to its political content

  7. Zeinobia,

    I am a devout Protestant Christian, and I am very troubled by some of the evangelical and fundamentalism Christian mentality. First, they really need to left politics alone just like the early church did. Jesus did say "His Kingdom is not of this world." Second, they must stop supporting oppression and murder which is a part of Israel. Here is a website for anti-Zionist Jews: https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8003335&postID=2238299007629332834

    If there are Jews against Zionism, no serious, knowledgable Christian can support Israel.

  8. @Sincere , I know about the Jews against Zionists , I made post before about them , there are even Jewish sects that do not believe in Israel like the karaite who used to live in Egypt and Nautra Kart
    unfortunately you can heard these jews , they are minorites
    about the Evangelists, it scares me to death that someone like Huckabee goes to the white house for 4 years , because not only it will hurt the Palestinian issue but it can hurt my country and its independence , this man said it frankly that the answer to the Palestinian issue "west bank +Gaza + the refugees" is to give them Sinai !! Egypt does not use it
    now there are talk in the Israeli press in the same context , if heaven forbids and this man becomes the president , I do not know about the consequences but it will be a big problem.
    the democrats are also supporting in Israel , every president after JFK "he was against the Israeli Nuke program" was and is with Israel with the exception of Jimmy Carter , still they support Israel because of political reasons , politics can change but the Evangelists support Israel for religious hard core reasons that can't be change and this is the main issue
