    Christian evangelicals are the worst offenders. You would think that they would support Palestine on the basis that their Christian population is the oldest Christian community in the world but no. They have to support Israel because of “end time prophecies”, “Rapture/Revelations” or other bullshit.

      Yep. Evangelicalism was born through the teachings of the Scofield Reference (or Study) Bible. It’s a pro-Zionist narrative injected into the Christian faith. If my memory serves me right, the King James version of the Bible is the bible that intermixed with Zionism.

      I live in an area where there’s Christian Arabs, they are far different than Christians from the Western world. Almost night and day differences.
