[Regarding the Copenhagen attack and a shooting at a synagogue]
It's the same tragedy again in Europe. Another shooting, more killing by Islamic terrorists, and another attack on a Jewish location. How many will there be of these before Europe learns? How many of these will there be before European Jews learn that Europe is not their true home and Israel is?

Well if you wear a yarmulke while walking in mayor European city's you will get spat at and people will try to run you over with scooters.
So I get why they don't feel at home. but the government should do something about that in stead of looking away.
Yes, Europe should do something, but it shouldn't be killing off or forcefully deporting all the Muslims and/or Jews, something I feel you might be implying here.
Israel is about as much their home as Sudan is to Japanese. European Jews have lived here centuries before the Israeli state even existed, they're more European than Asian now. They really have nothing to do with the politics across the Mediterranean, and the random collection of neo-nazis, muslim radicalists and oversensitive partisans need to get it through their thick skulls they belong here, have a right to be here, and could actually be our friends if we stopped wearing red-tinted glasses. But the last thing we need is some meddlesome fundamentalist from another religion, who secretly only wants to convert Jewish people to their hat club and force them to live is a cesspit of conflict and religious warfare just because they think the missed deadline for the end of the world is coming up any second now.
Blaming the victim? Nobody gets killed in Israel? You know, if you never set foot outside your home, you'll never have to worry about getting mugged, but then the criminals win.
So, they should leave Europe, which has a relatively small Islamic population, and go to live in Israel, which is surrounded by predominantly Islamic countries? That sounds like a GOOOOOD idea, dearie.
Europe has been the true home for these Jews for generations, centuries.
Israel has only existed since 1947.
What about the Christian terrorist, who killed teenagers at a summer-camp in Norway?

You just want to have all Jews return to Israel so Jesus can come back. Stop pretending to actually care about them, since you think they're all going to Hell for not accepting Jesus.
European Jews should go back to Israel? I can't tell if you're one of those "go back to where you came from" idiots or if you really think they'd be safer in Israel and just have turned the news on, uh, EVER. Either way, you're an idiot. Though it would be nice if it was a latter since people could just safely ignore you.
"How many will there be of these before Europe learns?"
Columbine, Aurora, Sandy Hook, etc etc. How many more before you Americans learn? You don't even have to be jewish.
Oh I forgot those events are all hoaxes. It's only real if it happens abroad.

Every time one of these incidents occurs, Netanyahu calls on the French, Danish, etc. Jews to come to Israel.
The common response from the invited is that he can go shove it.

I personally support Israel's right to exist, but what you just said was one of the most level-headed and decent things I have ever read from any of our fellow posters on this site. As a Jewish man, I thank you and as a human being I salute you.
What are they supposed to learn dummy? Nearly 2000 years of Christian bullshit and cruelty later and you think you can suggest others get a clue?
Nice try, I suggest they seek out ANY OTHER source when it comes to answers, if we could have sank these Abrahamic sects in the past there's no doubt the world would be better off.
In most pre-trib fundamentalist Christian End Times scenarios, the Jews are to return to Israel, so the majority of them can be wiped out. The remnant is then to convert to Christianity.
In other words, as Doubting Thomas said, the primary reason that fundiegelical Christians want the Jews to return to Israel is so that they can be destroyed, Judaism can cease to exist, and the end of the world can properly begin. Compassion has nothing whatsoever to do with it.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
