Back to this blog’s beginning, thanks to Tucker Carlson on Israel

Not many months after hearing the Lord say “This is ALL about to be fulfilled” upon my opening a Bible to check the wheat and tares parable, I emailed friends about it. Thus, began my emailing on current events in the Middle-East. As matters escalated the Lord strongly poked me to go public, which I did on 21.11.11 with this blog.

Scrolling through that month’s 11 postings you’ll note it covers the possibility of Israel making a pre-emptive strike against Iran and then TV debates on the Palestine issue.

NOW, courtesy of a friend and fellow writer gently taking me to task over including on-the-ground reports on Richard’s Watch Telegram from Behold Israel’s Amir Tsarfati in Eilat, Israel, we go ‘retro’ with a recent controversial interview by independent journalist Tucker Carlson.

In Episode 91, Revd Dr Munther Isaac leader of a Palestinian church in Bethlehem conveys his perspective of the dreadful situation in that region. He makes interesting and valid points about the need for churches to know what’s happening in the land and which may be valid; BUT then exposes his extremely one-sided stance at 14.40 mins

“..Christians should be for peace. I wish you were investing all your energy and money to bring peace, NOT continuing to support Israel unconditionally without holding them to account – which, in my opinion, is what drove us to this mess right now with the catastrophe of thousands of Palestinians killed on October 7th and all that…”

I stopped listening to any more because he failed to mention and show any compassion for the innocent victims of the utterly demonic barbarity of terrorists and many so-called citizens massacring and taking hostages of well over a thousand non-combatant Israelis – including babies and little children – and other nationalities.

It’s appalling that any Christian would fail to condemn that truly horrendous massacre – hence my blogging on it as humanity’s second tipping point.

It supports my contention that all the videos of the dead, mutilated, chopped and burned corpses should be mandatory viewing across all tv networks in an attempt to educate the deliberately brainwashed folk.

Tucker Carlson’s Misleading Narrative: Unraveling Bethlehem’s Christian Demographic Shift

The recent interview on Tucker Carlson’s show has sparked controversy, particularly in its portrayal of Israel and the population dynamics of Bethlehem. The narrative presented in the interview, suggesting that Israel is driving out Christians from Bethlehem, is not only irresponsible but also misrepresents historical facts.

It’s crucial to understand the historical context of Bethlehem’s demographics to grasp the reality accurately. Before Jordan took control of Bethlehem, the population was overwhelmingly Christian, with estimates indicating around 85% being Christian. However, during Jordanian rule, this percentage significantly declined to around 40%. This decline occurred due to various factors, including economic challenges, persecution and restrictions on religious freedom.

Contrary to the narrative presented, the years under Israeli control before the Oslo Accords saw a growth in Bethlehem’s Christian population. Estimates show that during this period, the Christian population increased to around 65%. This growth can be attributed to the freedom of religion and improved economic opportunities provided during Israeli administration.

However, in recent years, Bethlehem’s Christian population has faced challenges, and the percentage has decreased to a mere 12%. This decline is not due to Israeli actions but is a result of discrimination and persecution from the Palestinian Authority and the Muslim population in the region.

It’s essential to separate fact from fiction and not vilify Israel based on misleading narratives. The reality is that the Christian population in Israel has grown over the years, and Bethlehem saw growth during the time it was under Israeli control due to the freedom of religion and opportunities provided to all communities.

Tucker interview was not just irresponsible, fueling more hate during this times of heightened antisemitism but also manipulative towards the Christian communities to give them a false narrative against the Jewish State.

Israel is one of the safest places in the Middle East for Christians.
While Palestinian Christians left Gaza and the West Bank due to horrific persecution, and Christian communities in many places around us completely vanish, the Christian community in Israel prospers. Yes, there are here and there Jewish ultra-orthodox acts of hatred towards them but it’s unlike anything close to the atrocities Muslims do to them around us. Jews don’t kill Christians in Israel. Period.

Tucker Carlson, in his new path to completely remove American support in Israel, carefully chose to interview a traditional priest teaching replacement theology so only complaints would be heard.

No doubt – the American conservative narrative is being changed and Israel is now their new villain. The most antisemitic people on X these days are people who claim to be right-wing conservatives and even proud Christ followers.

THESE ARE THE LAST DAYS. BE CAREFUL OF THESE DECEIVERS.
