Two important videos here for you to see. There is a huge gap Christianity today. CUFI (Christians United for Israel) is at the forefront. What Christians following Hagees doctrine believe is the following:
� the modern State of Israel is a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy;

� war is a necessary part of their religion leading to a second conflict in Israel between Jesus himself and the Jewish Pharisee of today;

� 'born again Christians' are excused from responsibilty for bloodshed resulting from the support of Israel and the US government warring in the Middle East;

� it is a sin for 'Christians' to fail to support Israel in every way possible; and

� all land in the Middle East was given to Israel by God.

This is 100% against everything Jesus stood for and taught. This is the stuff I go against in the Church and I think these people are really dangerous, not only to my faith but to the United States, Israel and the world...and I think they're far more dangerous than Islamic or Jewish extremists because they have so much control on US foreign policy and control of our nuclear arsenal. Chuck Carlson, (the man in the hat) is a friend of mine and I support his efforts 100% in confronting these people calling themselves Christians who really want to force God's hand. There are two segments to this. Watch both. It's very educational.

West Bank rabbi: Jews can kill Gentiles who threaten Israel - Haaretz - Israel News

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 07:34:24 -0800

Talk about extremism. People ask me when I traveled through the occupied territories if I was afraid of terrorists. I always found this amusing. The answer is no. The Palestinians don't scare me and they're not terrorists. Under international law, as an occupied people, they have the right to resist the occupation by any and all means possible. Besides, the Muslim faith prohibits attacking someone who hasn't shown a hostility toward you and as a Christian, I'm considered a sister and of the book.

However, the Israelis do frighten me and this very short piece in Haaretz illustrates why. Israel is also the only country in the world that can kill Americans and get away with it. The last time I looked at the stats, (2005) the state of Israel had murdered 40 Americans in cold blood between 1967 and 2005. They've never been held accountable for a single one and these people cover all three faiths: Christianity, Islam and Judaism. The extremism demonstrated in this article is a belief held by approximately 30% of the Israeli population, and a key belief with the terror wielding settler movement. They do not consider non-Jewish people to be fully human and feel justified in killing whether the person is one day old or 100. To make their case, they twist scripture and take passages out of context, the same way the Christian Right promotes its justifications for hatred and groups like the Taliban theirs. No, the Jewish faith doesn't promote this, but like all faiths, it can be twisted to justify evil and that's what this Rabbi is doing. It's what Pat Robertson and John Hagee do in the US with Christianity and its what the Taliban and extremist Imams do with Islam. Wouldn't it be nice if we could take all these apostate religious leaders and put them together on an island where they can only hurt themselves? Then the rest of us could get on with the business of living without the need to hate.

Islam Times - Saudi Arabia's King dismisses a top Scholar in Riyadh

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:39:20 -0700

This is actually interesting. While I was living in Saudi Arabia last year, a petition was filed to allow women to drive. 500 women signed it. A week later, 5000 women said they didn't want to drive.
Ironically the educated classes, including the King and others in royalty within Saudi Arabia have been trying to steer the country toward greater equality with sexes. This university is one example and if you walk through National Guard Hospital (took me 2.5 hours to walk from one side to another), you'd never guess you were in Saudi Arabia. People from over 50 nations work there, English is the professional language and men and women work side by side. It's the people of Saudi Arabia that have been fighting it, not the government. This is actually a very brave stance for the king to make.

I must say it's much easier to identify where people are from in the US than in England for me. While in England they told me I had an accent! Moi? No way! I speak perfect Western American English. Oh, I guess that means I do have an accent!

Right-Wing Hatemongering Fueled by Christianity? | Belief | AlterNet

Sat, 10 Oct 2009 19:15:39 -0700

If you're Christian like I am, you've probably noticed the increasing chasm in our faith. It's become a faith of hatred, racism, war...the exact opposite of Christ. The problem is Dispensationalism, a new reading of scripture that started in 1832. This is not Christianity. It uses Christianity and nearly half of American Christians have fallen for it. Nearly all 'Christian' programming and publications promote this. Most, but not all Evangelical churches have become swallowed by it. Largest mainline churches that have gone over to the dark side of dispensationalism are the Southern Baptists, Calvary Chapel, Four Square, most of the non-denominational community churches. They attract the most religious. It becomes a cult feeding upon itself and its victims, the church-goers lap up the promises of non-biblical ideas like rapture and non-christian ideas such as returning to the old covenant. I made the mistake of joining a Christian group on Linked In. It was so full of dispensationalists and people giddy on war, Israel and hating Arabs, Palestinians, Muslims and Catholics, I left after two months. Reason doesn't work with them because if their belief system is shown for what it is, then question everything. It's a convenient scapegoat. This article gives you the background. Fortunately 2/3's of the people in the US have not been brainwashed by this. We can reverse it, I just hope it happens before these people through their support of wars and worship of political powers, destroy the US and Israel. They will. War, death and destruction in hopes of forcing a second coming is all they care about. They're willing to kill, and they do kill. Their weapons are our military, our nuclear military.

Step one is out of the way for me looking to working in international affairs and Public Relations for the US Government overseas and if the articles they included on the FSOT are any indication of the general writing by embassy staff, oh boy do they need me!
Turns out I sweat the test for no reason. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Finished it in under 2-hours.

ANATOMY OF AN INTERNET SCAM: Roommate Wanted

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 12:58:18 -0700

If you have kids that are in roommate situations or are looking to sublet a room
or rent an apartment, please read this and get it out there. I don't want to
see this happen to anyone else. I didn't lose much money but I did lose the
time I needed to find a roommate and that's costing me big time. It ends with a
threat and some pretty vile language. Feedback is always appreciated.

Robert Fisk: Everyone seems to be agreeing with Osama Bin Laden - Robert Fisk, Columnists - Belfasttelegraph.co.uk

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:21:32 -0700

Robert Fisk is my favorite journalist and I just love the satire that sings through this piece. I guess like a lot of people I hoped things would be different with Obama. That my nation is trying to squash the UN report noting Israel's ever increasing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Palestine shouldn't surprise me. But it does. It shouldn't surprise me because we're doing many of the same things in Iraq and Afghanistan, which means if Israel is guilty, we're guilty too. So of course we have to bury that and pretend that what we're doing is righteous and correct. There is nothing righteous about the conduct of my nation or Israel in the Middle East. Maybe, as Fisk points out here the Canadians will figure out they need to abandon this train wreck an stop siding with the problem in both areas.
