What Most People Get Wrong About America and Israel

[Jeremy Boreing @JeremyDBoreing]

The current anti-Israel and even anti-Jewish sentiment online is a social contagion, no different than transgenderism or autism before it.

Of course, there is actually a condition known as gender dysphoria. But every family in Hollywood didn't suddenly and coincidentally have at least one child with gender dysphoria at the exact same time by natural processes.

And of course there is actually a condition known as autism. But every family in Manhattan didn't suddenly and coincidentally have at least one child with autism at the exact same time by natural processes.

You aren't an Israel skeptic, and you didn't start "noticing." You were told, and shown by interested parties, and you were rewarded with attention and dopamine by the tellers and showers.

And as with every social contagion, what you have been told and shown is an overwhelming quantity of selectively chosen half-truths -- or full-truths with half-context.

You believe you are a free thinker, but when every "free thinker" arrives at the same conclusion at the exact same time... well, the thinking isn't as free as you believe it is.

Two simultaneous truths @JoshuaBarzon

A non-jewish segment of the children of Abraham (believers) are meant to allegorize the third temple language as a means to promote holiness in living - While God maintains an active covenant with Israel and a future literal temple (a shadow of what's in heaven Heb. 8) will be established on earth "as it is in heaven".

Why Jews seek influence in America versus why Muslims seek influence in America.

Jewish influence is defensive.

Jewish influence in America is not about taking over, imposing Jewish law, or replacing the system.

It’s about making sure Israel stays strong enough to survive in a region where every neighbor has tried to annihilate it.

Yes, there are Jewish billionaires funding leftist garbage in America, but those people aren’t pushing for Israel or even for Jewish continuity. They’re pushing the same globalist nonsense as other elites.

Don’t confuse George Soros with Israel. Soros doesn’t care about Israel’s survival. He doesn’t even care about America’s. Jewish leftists and Jewish Zionists are not the same thing.

Muslim influence is offensive:

In Europe and America, Muslim activism is about replacing the system that built the West with sharia or sharia-inspired governance. When Muslims gain influence, they don’t argue for defense, they argue for offense.

Israel is not, in this context, a foreign country. Israel represents the very values Tucker and his friends claim to want to preserve.

When you attack Israel, you’re not attacking some random Middle Eastern state. You’re attacking the symbol and the reality of Jewish survival, the survival of the very moral framework you claim to defend in the West.

The civilizational war today has collapsed into a single choice. Whether you like it or not, you either stand with Israel or you stand with Islam. There is no middle ground.

Neutrality doesn’t exist, because Islam doesn’t allow neutrality. Its worldview divides the world into two camps: dar al-Islam (the house of Islam) and dar al-harb (the house of war). If you’re not supporting Islam’s expansion, you’re its enemy.

Standing against Israel weakens the only state in the Middle East that shares the West’s basic values of sovereignty, democracy, and human rights. And weakening Israel automatically empowers Islam.

Whether they realize it or not, the far right’s “neutral” position becomes functionally pro-Islam.

You can’t oppose both because the battlefield has already been drawn: support Israel, or watch Islam advance.

“Jeremy Boreing says influential voices [like Tucker Carlson] aren’t just commenting on politics—they’re building a new coalition by fusing left-wing economics with right-wing social populism.” 🎯

Another term for this is……. you guessed…. Woke Right.

Thoughts upon Israel from men who were neither Dispensationalists nor Supersessionists, example XI -

A.W. Tozer (1897-1963) -

"The nations of the world have found that you can persecute the Jew. You can burn him. You can throw him to lions. You can put him in gas chambers. You can make him wear a badge with an evil word on it. You can turn on him and persecute him, and when it's all over, he'll come crawling up out of the ashes and live on.

God has said to Israel, ‘I will keep you'; He kept him. And just as He kept Daniel in the lion's den in Israel, three Hebrew children in the fiery furnace, and Jonah in the belly of the whale, so He has kept the nation of Israel down through the years. Right now, fundamentalism has swung away almost completely from the pre-millenarian position that we believe and that our fathers knew and taught. And we don't hear much about it anymore. But my brother, I believe that God is preserving Israel still.

...if the Arabic nations should turn on Israel and dissolve her and tear her apart and to make her to be no nation, it wouldn’t bother me, because I very well know that the God of Israel is a sovereign God. And if this present nation called Israel over there should be scattered to the ends of the earth, God still will fulfill His Scripture which says, 'I will bring you back from all the nations.' (Ez. 36.24) I don't like the palsy-walsying around with communism, that I'm afraid may be present a little over there. But I know that God by one dramatic wave of His hand can change that whole thing. I know it. I don't know how He'll do it, but I know He can do it. And He will do it.

And not only that, He will bring Israel to her knees and Israel will repent [as] in the last chapter of the prophetic book of Zechariah. And in the 13th, and along there, we learn in the 13th and 14th, we learn how Israel will repent, and all her families will go apart and weep deeply in grave sorrow over her sins. And she will look on Him whom she has pierced, and she will recognize Him as her Messiah.

Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of Abraham according to the flesh, and who came in the line of Isaac and Jacob and David and on down to the little Virgin Mary, and became flesh to dwell among us, He will be true to His people, and will restore them again as He promised to do. ...'And He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever.' (Lk. 1.33a) Has that been fulfilled?

'And of His kingdom there shall be no end.' (Lk. 1.33b) 'The Lord shall give unto Him the throne of his father David.' (Lk. 1.32b) Has that been fulfilled? 'He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever.' Neither of these has been fulfilled. He has never sat on the throne of His father David. There was no throne of David when Jesus walked the earth. And Jesus has never for one remote hour ever reigned over the house of Jacob. For the house of Jacob refuses to believe that Jesus is their Messiah. And they said, 'we will not have this man to reign over us.' (Lk. 19.14) Therefore, God has got to fulfill. Do you think He will? I believe He will."

(From the sermon "Seven Miracles of Israel", preached April 27, 1958)

[Melissa the Hopeful🏠Homemaker @BiblicalBeauty]

John MacArthur at a church in 1988 explaining one of the issues that prevented him from supporting a covenant theologian's view on the future of Israel:

"God promised Israel all kinds of things. If you're a covenant theologian, you say, 'But that's not literal. That's all figurative, and that's all talking about spiritual blessings to the church.'

The problem with that is, you've got all the literal curses, and now, you've arbitrarily made all the promises figurative. And you've taken all the curses and applied them to literal Israel, and all the blessings and applied them to figurative Israel, namely, the church. And I think that's really an impossible kind of hermeneutic, because you've arbitrarily determined that."

[Andrew T. Walker @AndrewTWalker]

Communism and Christianity stand at fundamentally irreconcilable odds because they rest on rival accounts of the human person, freedom, and authority.

Where Christ sets man free—liberating the conscience from sin and ordering freedom toward truth and love—communism operates by coercion, subordinating the individual to the collective and enforcing conformity through compulsion. Christianity understands freedom as moral and spiritual: the capacity to live in accordance with reality as God has made it. Communism, by contrast, treats freedom as a problem to be managed, something to be engineered away in the pursuit of an abstract vision of equality.

At the heart of the conflict is authority. Christianity locates ultimate authority in God, limits the claims of the state, and affirms the dignity of the person as prior to political power. Communism collapses those distinctions. It absolutizes the state, denies transcendent moral limits, and reduces persons to economic units whose worth is measured by their utility to the system. Where Christianity calls for voluntary charity, communism mandates redistribution. Where Christianity relies on conversion of the heart, communism relies on force. Where Christianity produces ordered liberty, communism produces fear, surveillance, and dependency.

This is not merely a historical observation but a philosophical one. Christianity can survive persecution because it appeals to conscience; communism cannot survive dissent because it demands total unbending allegiance. One is built on grace and truth; the other on power and control. The two are not competing paths to the same end. They are rival moral universes and they point in opposite directions.

Victor Davis Hanson: My Response to Tucker Carlson’s Israel, Qatar Claims

“I would like to say—it pains me to say this—but the Tucker that is talking is not the one that I had a seven-to-eight-year relationship with every Monday after the monologue. But to be frank, everything he just said is demonstrably untrue,” argues @VDHanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

If you are one of the idiots here trying to refute me by claiming I’m taking cash from Israel - save it, I’m not. But here is a great breakdown of economic benefits (which aren’t the only benefits) of our U.S./Israel alliance from @GBNT1952 that I was just made aware of. It all tracks! https://t.co/aZpnktKpPD
