Why Do Churches Refuse to Question Israel's Actions?

[eier]

Respect.

[kuponololii]

This is an excellent plea for interfaith to come together and to share in the call for justice no matter what the religion, ethnicity, or country they are from. Instead of following a militant Zionist movement of killing in the name of the state of Israel, which has been occupied/lived in by many groups, there should be a interfaith movement to move forward to a solution that is mutually benficial for all groups.

another amazingly moving video in this vein is called "the general's son."  it's by an israeli man who's father was a general in IDF and turned pro palestinian cause after all the lies and injustice he witnessed. the son now continues the work of his father. you won't believe what this highly moral man has to say.

[sherhak]

wow! when he said, 'when you walk in jerusalem, not only you'll walk where Jesus walked, but you'll see what Jesus saw,' i was blown away. it's exactly like that. i can't stay silent anymore. i have to do what i can do or i won't be able to forgive myself.

thank you mike for restoring my faith in humanity, though it's still a fragile faith. we all have to stand and expose this horrendous injustice for what it is. we have to scream from the rooftops FREE PALESTINE NOW! enough is enough

[YolandaGuadalupe]

Thank you !!!

USA/Israel is a big civilizational power that has the motive of wiping out indigenous cultures and disrupting religious freedom. This does have an apocalyptic connection to the Mark of the Beast as spoken in Revelation 13.

Nice Job

[Pajopeace]

Mr Braverman is a good man a raises valid points. However, he needs to also address the issue of how anti-Christian and anti Jesus that Judaism is.

Jesus to me is a symbol of freedom and equality but I'm not a Christian. We the people of the Celtic islands have beliefs that are thousands of years older than the middle eastern religions. Don't be controlled by a narrative, trust your hearts and seek peace for all.

I am the filmmaker who put this together and your are the third person who had this problem. I will look into why this happens. I can hear the sound and most people can, so we'll have to find a techie who could fix the sound. Thanks for letting us know. betsy.mayfield@gmail.com

Great video and excellent speech. The world needs more people like him.

[saadasim]

Over and over again, the Torah repeated its most frequently stated mitzvah [command]:

When you enter your land, do not oppress the stranger; the other, the one who is an outsider of your society, the powerless one and then not only 'you shall love your neighbor as yourself' but also 'you shall love the other.'

[Desibeatnik]

Am I the only one that can't hear this? The intro is normal volume but when the speech starts, it's silent. I wish I could find a version with sound, as I know so-called christian zionists that need to know this information.

@Desibeatnik

Hi, Desibeatnik, You are the third person who has this complaint and I will look into why. It doesn't happen for me or for most people. I'll be working with a techie at the end of the week and see if he can fix the problem. In the meantime, please check that your sound is on in all possible aspects. Again, thanks for letting us know. betsy.mayfield@gmail.com P.S. I could send you a DVD of the piece if you'd like to have it, but I'm on the road, so it will be awhile.

[Debbo7]

Thank you for sharing this video with its very important message.

[Desibeatnik]

where can I find a version of this with sound?

[eileenfleming]

From Moses to Jeremiah and Isaiah, the Prophets taught that the Jewish claim on the land of Israel was totally contingent on the moral and spiritual life of the Jews who lived there, and that the land would, as the Torah tells us, 'vomit you out' if people did not live according to the highest moral vision of Torah. Over and over again, the Torah repeated its most frequently stated mitzvah [command]:

TBC

[eileenfleming]

Mark also explains Walter Brueggemann’s analysis of The Land as a "core metaphor for the drama of God’s people struggling to come to terms with the divine imperative to live justly…at once the promise and the problem…Possession of the land is totally conditional on obedience to God’s plan as expressed in the covenant…Christians cannot speak seriously to Jews unless we acknowledge land to be the central agenda…What would the prophets say?"

[eileenfleming]

In FATAL EMBRACE Mark Braverman wrote:

"On the ninth of Av, when I stood on the outskirts of Jerusalem, a Jerusalem I now saw marching to its own destruction. I felt like the prophet Jeremiah and like Jesus eight centuries later, overcome with grief…[Jeremiah mourns] for the brokenness and imminent disaster awaiting the people. But the mourning is not about victimhood: it is about the self-inflicted nature of disaster to come."

[AlternateFocus]

To Fatima, The Bible says some things worthy of humanity and some other things which appall us in the modern world. Talmud, Bible, Koran are all books, supposedly sent by God to teach us how to live. But, none are infallible and all need interpretation according to the era in which they are read. I don't think you'd agree, but you know, Fatima, we're all animals in the best sense of the world. Anyone who has given birth and doesn't realize that is someone who doesn't want to face reality.

[ExposeZionistCrimes]

@AlternateFocus The Talmud was written by racist rabbis, it doesn't claim to be sent by God. I recommend everyone read it by searching come and hear talmud, or talmud exposed.

[proPalestine0403]

@AlternateFocus if you want to play this game, i`ll tell you that Fatima means ( it`s ok to be same kind, but talmud claims that they are people and the others are animals). in many sens i share your idias, but not all.

[fatima01917]

@AlternateFocus One can't put the Bible in the same category as the Talmud and Koran because they reject Jesus Christ as the one true Messiah and God made man. The Bible is the word of the one true God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and was inspired by God so it is infallible and the Douay Rheims is the most accurate because men did make changes in other Bibles. No, we aren't all animals and evolution is a hoax to make money. We have souls and animals don't.

[fatima01917]

The Talmud teaches that all non-jews are animals! Read it online to see more.

Wise man, with a good heart. Good speech.

[ShaktipatSeer]

Faith + Love + WISDOM = Divinity

[aerobique]

good man, very reasonable speech

[iLovePalestineDotCom]

Thank Gd for the few righteous Jews who speak the truth. The Christian world (The West) should be ashamed for standing against not only the Muslim victims in Palestine but also against the Palestinian Christian victims as well.

Nothing less than complete Equality will ever suffice so the Parasitic Zionist Apartheid System has to be dismantled and replaced by a democratic system that is representative of all the people on the land.

[sheltv100]

@iLovePalestineDotCom Amen.
