The President wants Israel to give back the land they purchased with blood from the nations that came at Israel in 1967. The second thing out of everyone's mouth when they hear this (after a curse at the President) is "Not gonna happen." I tell you what, Israel will give back all that land after Texas surrenders to Mexico and we give back what WE won in our own war as a fledgling.
Israel, for those who do not know, had no borders in 1967. They had cease-fire lines which were referred to as Auschwitz Boundaries by some because if they were permanent borders it would mean the destruction of Israel. EVERY part of Israel could be shelled from those lines in 1967. The President of the United States has said, in effect, "It is not enough for all of Israel to be in easy range of advanced rocketry weapons. I want all of Israel to be in range of inexpensive artillery fire."
Now let's be clear: God loves Israel. God gets his hackles raised when you mess with Israel. Sure they did wrong and were ejected from the land, but God has a soft spot in his heart for the Jew and for Israel. He even said that Jerusalem is the apple of his eye. In 1967 Israel did not have control of the "Old City" of Jerusalem, where the Temple of God stood for centuries, where God has a special design for the future. The President of the United States has said, in effect, "I want the location of God's once and future temples to be under the control of those who hate and wish to destroy Israel."
Now I don't know about you, but it seems like a very bad idea to poke God in the eye. I fear greatly for our country that the President is coming right out and SAYING he wants to poke God in the eye. This is my official protest: We should never, ever, EVER ask Israel to give back the land she won in the 1967 war.
