But I though Hamas were supposed to be freedom fighters and that their only issue was the Israel-Palestine conflict. Maybe one day the leftists will wake up and see the true face of Islam.

I am truly amazed that anyone would not understand the threat these people are to the world. But we as Christians need to love our neighbor, and pray for them.

Seems to me that anyone who questions whether we are in the end times would see - here we are!

seems the time is getting near, is everyone prepared? Do You have faith that Jesus Christ died for your sins and you are saved by the almighty GOD?

What made anyone think they were freedom fighters, for that matter anyone who looks at the Koran and follows its teachings. Anyone who isn't following the teachings of the Koran is an infidel to them, and according to the Koran they must convert or be killed. So wake up world! That means if you are Jewish, Christian, Gay, Buddhist, Hindu, Athiest, and so on, and you are not Islamic, you are an infidel to them and they must convert or kill you. They don't care if you are an adult, child, or an infant. They are a threat, because they don't just want Palestine, they want the whole world. It doesn't take a rocket scientist, just a brain and the ability to read!

Allah is not the same being as the God of the Jews and the Christians. (For that matter, Allah doesn't exist.) The God of the Jews gave Isaac (not Ishmael) as the son of promise to Abraham, told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac (not Ishmael), and made Israel His chosen nation. The God of Christians offered His only Son, Jesus, as a sacrifice for the sins of the world, and Jesus thus physically died on the cross; to Christians (to all, really, because it is true), Jesus was God (the second Person of the Trinity) in the flesh; the God of Christians raised Jesus physically from the dead. Allah, on the other hand, is a pagan moon god which Mohammed appropriated because of its popularity in Mohammed's Arabic society, and in order to try to win over Christians especially, mingled its character with corrupted Biblical teachings (such as denying that God chose Israel, that the son of promise was Isaac, that Jesus died on the cross, that Jesus was raised from the dead, and that Jesus is God). Allah is no more equivalent to the God of the Bible than someone's abstract and poorly-done clay interpretation of Michelangelo's "David" would be equivalent to the original.

This is another excellent example of common misconceptions about Islam. There is absolutely no truth to the statement that Allah was a pagan moon god. That statement is based on bad archaeology and outright lies. Please reference http://www.islamic-awareness.o...ongod.html for the full rebuttal.

Secondly, God creating a prophetic line through Isaac in no way precludes a prophetic line being established through Ishmael.

Bonita:

Please stop recycling these tired canards. The Qur'an does not call for all non-Muslims to be killed.

How can you say that, have you read a Qur'an?

Surah 9:5 When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. If they repent and take to prayer and render the alms levy, allow them to go their way.

or how about

Surah 5:33 They should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides.

Or how about the verse that says you can beat women

Surah 4:34 Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them.

This evil book spreads lies and murder and I cannot believe that people still defend this satanic work.

just look at this video of how they poison the minds of small children with their hate

Won't we all be very surprised when we pa*s from this restricted life to eternal life!!!!

TO: Western Confucian, (mr naive)
You, sir, are wrong. HAMAS is a terrorist group of liars, that behead people. How naive you are. I think they only behead people because is easier and faster than crucifying them. (IsraelNN.com) Hamas leaders in Gaza have denied a report in the London-based Al-Hayyat according to which the group plans to institute an Islamic penal code including punishments such as crucifixion, lashes and amputations. However, according to the Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) organization, the group is lying.

"Contrary to today's denials, official Hamas leaders have proudly announced in the Hamas-run media in the last two months that this Islamic penal code was being prepared,” PMW explained. “Indeed, senior Hamas leaders went so far as to say that when these laws are implemented, they will have force not only in Gaza but also in the West Bank [Judea and Samaria—ed.].” Heads of the Hamas-run Palestinian Authority in Gaza have specified that the new penal code will have “14 chapters and 220 clauses,” according to PMW. Despite their denials this week, Hamas leaders recently announced that the new code is almost ready. PMW gave specific examples of recent statements contradicting Hamas' denial of this week's report on its planned Islamic law system. While a statement published in Al Ayyam on Thursday said, “The [Legislative] Council did not discuss any article of the penal code,” Hamas' Minister of Justice said, “This [Islamic penal] code is being discussed at the sessions of the Legislative Council, for a second reading,” less than six weeks earlier.

In a separate statement, senior Hamas justice officials said, “Similar [Islamic penal codes] have already been implemented in a number of Arabic and Islamic states such as Sudan, Yemen, the [Arab] Emirates and Indonesia.”

Preparation of the Islamic penal code was confirmed by the Bureau of Islamic Law in Gaza as well. In mid-November, the group released a statement saying, “The Bureau of Islamic Law is preparing a Penal Code in order to implement Sharia-Islamic Law.” The statement was printed in the Hamas paper Al-Rissala.

The Israelis have went as far as to phone people in Arabic urging them to leave a particular area. The Palestinians want maximum civilian deaths, this is obviously what sells in the mainstream media. People forget that the Israel was basically a desert until the Jews irrigated it and planted crops. There were no big cities, just bands of nomadic Jordanian tribesmen roaming around from oasis to oasis with their camels. If the Palestinians controlled the land it would just deteriorate into a desert again.

The IDF has a youtube site up and i was watching some of the videos the other day. These guys are loading rockets onto trucks in heavily populated civilian areas, snatching school kids from the street to run across the street (sickening), keeping bombs in mosques and using ambulances to transport people to the "front lines".

Yet when Israel drops a bomb to destroy the truck and it kills some civilians then the MSM cries foul.

I've had it from the habitual whiners of this world. The Palestinians fall into this category for me. I wish Israel the best of luck, and would be quite upset if someone from a neighboring country was lobbing missiles into my back yard.

All the people who think we should stop supporting Israel need to ask themselves one simple question: If rockets are being lobbed at you from a bunch of a*shats who declare they want your existence wiped from the earth, all the while you provide them with the basic services to a point, what would you do? Turn the other cheek or after rockets come down next door during a "truce" do you smash their face?

I know my answer.

Interesting as we discuss Hamas, that Exiled hate preacher Omar Bakri , an ardent supporter of Hamas and Hezbolah has ordered his followers to convert aliens to Islam.

"The Syrian-born imam, who is notorious for praising the 9/11 bombers, told Muslims to not only spread the religion across the world, but across the galaxy. He said: 'We are obliged as Muslims to make the whole galaxy subservient to almighty Allah."

HAMAS BORG: You shall be a*similated (or beheaded.)

Personally, I'll have none of that, thank you, which is why I believe Israel has endured much more than other nations would before retaliating.

if they do bring it back it be interesting to see this.
