I'm an Orthodox Christian. It has just occurred to me that we might lose all of our sacred places in the Holy Land if this hostility by israel continues.

The Romans did kill Jesus.
I understand that Jewish people being accused of Jesus is hurtful and wrong. But that is not the case here, as I've explained. I'm sure someone with a better understanding of theology can explain it better than I.

Whatever makes you feel better. But after looking through an account full celebrating October 7th, talking about how Jews all reject and it's not a real religion anyway because Christians are the TRUE Israelites and calling everyone they disagree with a Jewish supremacist I'm not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

So according to you, the definition of Antisemitic now extends to being a 21st century Christian and Churches quoting the gospels on the internet?

No.

TooBigForMyBoots · 18/07/2025 23:33

Mabiri · 18/07/2025 23:31

No.

Then what is Antisemetic about that account?

I've already explained that multiple times.

You spoke about a specific image. I explained why that it is not antisemitic and explained why. You posted a definition of antisemitism. It does not comply with this.
That doesn't make me feel better, but I hoped to make you feel better.
On the other items, I disagree, Judaism is a real religion etc. It's part of my own family background. I respect Judaism and I think most people on MN do too, honestly. And we all should act from that point.
What I don't respect are the current actions of the Israeli government bombing and starving people. And no real Christian should either.

No. You haven't. You've accused this account of Antisemetism for quoting the New Testament and showing an image of Christ with suffering children.Confused

You don't think it's antisemitic. Good for you. You are not the authority. I doubt it's a trope you've have thrown in your face your whole life. And then have had people explain that statements like "the dominant religion in Israel adheres to the same faith as the Pharisee class of second temple Judaism, who demanded Christ be killed" and "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on Oct 7 was done as a retaliatory counterattack addressing Israeli occupation... it was also foreknown by Israel and not stopped; meaning it was a false flag to use as a Zionist excuse to destroy Gaza" and "the modern Christ-rejecting Jewish religion and so-called country dishonors God" aren't antisemitic and you're being sensitive for thinking so.

I've accused it of being antisemitic for repeating many antisemitic tropes including a comment that clearly implies that Jews killed Jesus and they're doing it again. Among others.

I suspect that if they had a post saying saying that they hate all Jews and Hitler did nothing wrong you'd still be just as gaslighty.

Please read my post. I actually agreed with you on the other items as you explained them. Thanks.

TooBigForMyBoots · 18/07/2025 23:58

Again, you're accusing them of being antisemitic because they're 21st century Christians posting scripture.🤷‍♀️

You say your definition of antisemitism doesn't extend to all followers of Christianity, what makes this account different?

YourOnMute · 19/07/2025 00:00

And my previous post where I said the trope you referred to is wrong.

And to say, I dislike being misinterpreted and being accused of things I did not say. I know threads can move quickly.

You would be very wrong. Suspecting something doesn't make it real.🙄

Does anyone have any update on Taybeh? I know it was being attacked by settlers unfortunately (West Bank). I haven't heard anything in a few days.

That's not what I'm saying at all but as you are determined that it is, there's no point repeating myself.

I never accused you of saying anything you didnt say.

Ok, in your own words: good for you. You are not the authority.
We'll have to agree to differ.
I don't want to divert this thread from it's topic of a town being attacked in the West Bank and now a church being bombed in Gaza.

You called it bile from an Antisemitic account without demonstrating how it was Antisemetic.

I know the definition of Antisemetism you seem confused.

Well at least you are honest that you see every Palestinian civilian as the enemy. You have given up the notion that they are not being targeted so.

Edited

Where did I say every civilian is the enemy? But obviously in a war you have 2 or more sides that see each other as the 'enemy'.

Huckabee threatens to declare Israel does not welcome Christians, as visa row blows open
US envoy pens scathing letter to interior minister, accusing Israel of blocking Christian groups from entering Israel and warning of reciprocal steps against Israeli visa seekers

I thought the romans killed Jesus.

Pontious Pilate washed his hands of complicity.

"I am innocent of this man's blood; see to it yourselves."

Ethofascist vs ethnofascist 🤔 interesting to see how this one plays out. It may provide us with an indication of Israel's intentions towards the Christians going forward.

A cowardly act, who tried to divest himself of the blame. Trying to blame others. This is why we have the phrase "tried to wash his hands of it".

I don't have it to hand but I think approx 4 churches and over 1000 mosques have been attacked. Bombed, air strike. Of course civilians would be sheltering in them all.
(Not including schools, hospitals, shops, pharmacies, clinics, houses, flats, playgrounds and now tents).

And yet in that article posted about the church Netanyahu says this.

Honestly the lies are never ending.
