Israel is for the Jews. My Christian upbringing tells me this. The Jew want to live in peace. He or She does not care if there are million of muslims in the area as long as they chose to not kill any one. The hate that islam has for Israel and the Jews is sickening. The muslims tell us that they will not hurt us , then we turn on the news and see the evil that is sent towards the Jews and Israel. This is the same evil that hit us on Sept 11 . It is no different. Hate is hate, ignorance is ignorance. The Jews of Israel are like the canary in the mine. If they go , soon it will be our turn. If muslims want to be treated with respect, they must first say that all of Israel belongs to the Jews. The killing and hate speeches must end.
