        It’s lowball for most governments. Should most of the world not condemn Israel’s reaction because at one point they did something similar?

        still, two shot in side a church and suddenly it’s terrorism. (also, at this point, every one expects the spanish inquisition.)

          That’s really not the case…

          He condemned the whole thing 3 weeks ago as terrorism. He said it again 2 weeks ago too.

          Problem is, people are so eager to jump on the “religion bad!” bandwagon that they’ll take any bait they can, even when they really don’t know what they’re talking about.

          Sure, there’s plenty to hate on, but this isn’t it…

            I am not religious, but you are right. He has been very vocal on this. People like to choose what is convenient for them

            TBF religion is pretty bad. Just look at it.

      It’s traditional, like many things in Christianity. Remember the Crusades?

      The Muslim imaginary sky dictator isn’t part of the Christian imaginary sky dictator’s plan to end the world (but like in a good way!) like the Jewish imaginary sky dictator’s followers are.

      If you think about it, the Christian special relationship comradery with Judaism is a super patronizing relationship in that sense. “yeah, we can be friends, just stand… right over… Here. Right here.”
