By semi-popular demand: I'm Curious to why any Jew (or the Israeli state!) Would Cozy up to Evangelical Christians.

How can “I am just very glad that so many do.” be a generalization? OH when you remove the adjective…. When you change what I actually said.

“I am just very glad that so many do.” Not a generalization.

Yes, I am glad many seem to, and they have many different reasons. When a person shows support for Israel, I am not suspicious and automatically think that it is insincere.

I read, or hear what they say, and when they say put conditions on their support, like saying they could only really support Israel fully IF the whole world were changed away from an oil-based economy… I get worried.

Or when they describe Netanyahu views as propaganda…. I get worried.

Or when they question, and consider the idea of Israel as a perpetually Jewish state as problematic…. I think they might just not be as fully supportive as I might have hoped.
