Fascinating thread from @KarlRadl about who Robin Hood was fighting. This would have sounded crazy to me at one time. But, having learned a lot over the last few decades, now I read this and think, “Sounds about right.”
This is completely ballsed up sideways. Robin Hood wasn't fighting 'authority'; the ballads we have are quite specific on this actually. He was fighting 'unjust authority' which wasn't the king but rather local moneylenders who sucked the blood out of the peasantry and yeomanry

As I recall, many of the pagers in Lebanon were carried by civilian doctors, medical, and emergency personnel.

I have found it instructive to see healers purposely targeted by Israel. Try to imagine people who witnessed someone healing many and, instead of rejoicing in those healings, they crucify the guy. Easier to imagine now, isn't it?
Hey @grok, Out of the 36 major hospitals in Gaza, how many of them did Israel bomb? Say the number first.

I’m increasingly thankful, every single day, that Christians in America are breaking free of the heresy of Dispensationalism and that they are growing increasingly intolerant of Jewish Supremacy and their endless shenanigans. Praise Jesus.

“Overseas Israeli” Maybe even better than “Israeli American”? Nice one, @martyrmade! nitter.cf/martyrmade/status/2102…
Because enough of a people will recreate their homeland wherever they go, I've come around on terms like African-American and Chinese American (we literally refer to "Chinatowns"). So I propose that we refer to Jews here as Israeli Americans. So we know what we're getting.

Please stop saying "suicidal empathy". It's hatred, not empathy.

The only other person called a Messiah other than Jesus iirc? Random history tidbit about Cyrus, if you include every nations that paid tribute and mercenaries to him, he was the most powerful man of his age, and one of the largest empires in history.

Jews can be saved from their murderous ethno-narcissicism by Jesus who is, as prophesied, "a light to the nations".
Some try to say St. Paul was a break from Jesus. But here we see a continuity between John the Baptist (see verse in image), Jesus and Paul on this critical topic: Jewish ethno-narcissism. In fact, as @LostMyHats points out, Jesus physically fought Jewish ethno-narcissism!

Isaiah prophesied Cyrus the Great by name about a century before he was born. Josephus records a story that Cyrus read Isaiah's prophecy and was so impressed with the divine power to tell the future that he eagerly sought to fulfill all that was written about him. I leave it to you to decide if a prophecy that is fulfilled, in part, because of knowledge of the prophecy is cheating.

Hey @Grok, YES or NO I have ZERO Jewish ancestry or ties to Israel, but converted to Judaism and qualify under Israel’s Law of Return. Can I immigrate and move into an ILLEGAL JEWISH SETTLEMENT in the OCCUPIED WEST BANK?

Isn't mass appreciation or generalised cultural impact an isolated late 19th/20th century phenomenon? Aren't "citadels of appreciation" a return to the epistolary age?

Did you know when Jesus drove out the money changers it wasn’t just about Jews monetizing religion? It was to defend the Gentiles. Jesus wasn’t cleansing the wider temple, per se, but the Court of the Gentiles, an unbiblical Herodian invention. God never intended to exclude Gentiles from the temple (1 Kings 8:41–43; Isaiah 56:6–7). Herod, the Edomite king built the design to pacify the Jews’ hatred of goyim and keep them out. The filthy money changers didn’t set up inside the temple. They crowded out the Gentile real estate. Think of it like the Temple’s West Bank. The one place they could go, the Jews took over. Typical. Jesus quoted Isaiah: “My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer” (Mark 11:17; Isaiah 56:7). Jesus literally says πᾶσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσ, “House of the Gentiles.” Because the Jews had crowded out the one place the goyim were allowed to be, Jesus cites Isaiah 56 to remind them the Temple belonged to the Goyim, too.
