Do you have to support Israel no matter what?
 

Just a questions.

I read this article today and for some reason I got mad. Israel has done other things in the past that have ignited anger. Is it un christian to get mad at Israel? Do I have to support/bless them no matter what?

While personally I support Israel in a general sense, I do not see the need for the USA to give them aid financially. Nor do I see the need for this unconditional support some Christians insist on. Having said that, I do think they are the only normal country in that region.

What does it mean to "Support Israel"?

I don't believe we have to support everything Israel does as a nation; however, we should support their right to exist and be free.

If the United states is going to give financial aid to any country on earth it should be to the nation of Israel as they are God's chosen people and God gave the promise that He would bless those that blessed them. As to them taking that land it is already thier land given to them by God. So yes i support them.

We give billions of dollars in aid to the Israelis. We also give billions of dollars in aid to the Palestinians. And the Saudis. And so on and so on.

I don't think we should be giving anybody a dime outside our borders, at least not until we get our own house cleaned up first.
