@chrisbronson5341 According to the Bible, he is. My point is that, anyone who praises Jesus, God, both, whomever, is supposed to accept all people as their brother. Not wish their demise or annihilation. I'm sure not all Jewish people want the Palestinians gone. But it seems their leadership doesn't mind it at all. I'm not a Bible thumper. But I do consider much of it's ideas and philosophy, a good thing. And the destruction of a people, that have some different beliefs in religion or culture as yourself, sure don't follow the basic things I learned as a kid in Sunday school and just life. Maybe most or many Jews, don't think of Jesus as their, king. But Christianity in general reveres Jesus, as God or son of God. And the teachings are the same. Love thine brother and fellow man. Thats what this now 72 year old agnostic, learned as a kid in Sunday school and from decent people.

@chrisbronson5341 Yeah, this is why I'm an agnostic. The thought of a... loving God, with the ability to help when needed seems, wonderful. But then you see that doesn't happen any more, than less. I guess that's where faith, is supposed to take over.
As for the real Jewish beliefs. If hatred of a person, based on their own religious beliefs, is a prerequisite. Not for me. But I know it works both ways. Christians can be, extremists just as well. But like anything else. Ya always have some hard kernels in every bag of popcorn.
But, religion has been the cause of hate and love , since the first ancient human, saw the lights in the sky and some ancient philosophers said, those must be gods. And we must worship them.
