LA Times Addresses Campbell and Israel

By Philip Klein on 2.25.10 @ 9:03AM

The Los Angeles Times has now done a story on Tom Campbell's record on Israel that ignores much of the specific criticism that's been made against him and has an odd focus on whether or not somebody from the Carly Fiorina campaign called him an anti-Semite. Jennifer Rubin has more here.

"Nothing is more essential, than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular Nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded."

- President George Washington

" A nation's word of honor should never be broken."

I suggest someone here go back and read our United Nations position at the creation of The state of Israel.

Our nation, through President Reagan, gave our word to the Russians that we would not expand NATO unto their doorstep. You must then oppose the recently debated missile system in Eastern Europe then.

But you, Israel, My servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham, My friend; you whom I took from the ends of the earth, and called from its farthest corners, saying to you, "You are My servant, I have chosen you and not cast you off"; fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My victorious right hand. Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish. You shall seek those who contend with you, but you shall not find them; those who war against you shall be as nothing at all." Is. 41:8-12.

Margie, how is that reading you are supposed to be doing on theological alternatives to dispensational pre-millennialism going?

When will you quit lying about what you think I believe?
Aren't you aware of what the Bible says concerning liars? you call yourself a Christian?
"Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, through the pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared.." 1 Tim. 4:1&2.
"But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death." Rev. 21:8.

"When will you quit lying about what you think I believe?"

Margie, I could well be wrong about what you believe. If I am, please correct me. But why would I lie about what I think you believe? That doesn't even make sense. So I’m lying that I think you are a dispy pre-mil when I really think you are a preterist for example. To what end?
