[Another fundie has replied to SoG's rant, saying that the Palestinian people aren't "invented", and telling him that we aren't living in OT times and that he comes across as bloodthirsty.]

It does not matter. As long as the Palestinians exist they will hate and try to destroy Israel. It is no different than if the US were sane and did what needed to be done against terrorism, wipe them all out within hesitation. This is not an individual, but national level we are talking about.

What is different about today than in olden days? If you think about it...nothing. Only modern (western) man has changed. If you look at scripture it speaks of things(old and new testament) that modern man has a problem with. I think thinking like people of old is more sane, and more realistic, than modern man.

That is what I think I don't mean to come across as cold, but I am being honest, this is really what I think and I don't want to lie and say something that is what people expect to hear..I do that too often.

I know that common wisdom would agree with you, but is that accurate or correct? Is it biblical? That is what I want to know. I don't think the Old Testament is any less valid than the new(the distinction is artificial). What we are seeing is a nation(Israel) all alone getting hit by rockets from a group backed by nations who will stop at nothing to destroy them. There should be no ceasefires for such people. Doesn't seeing how the world is reacting anger you?

Sometimes the right thing doesn't feel good. This is one of those times.
