"Why does the Torah start with the creation, instead of the first commandment given to the Jewish People? Because if the nations of the world ever accuse the Jews of stealing the Land of Israel, the Jews will be able to respond to the nations of the world that the entire world belongs to G-d, He created it and He choose to give the Land of Israel to the Jewish People." -Rabbi Shlomo ben Yitzhak (Rashi)
"Please save me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau!" (Genesis 32:11) Whether he comes as Esau with Inquisitions and pogroms, or comes as our brother with handouts and Messianic 'seders', Esau soneh et Yaakov, Esau is still our enemy. This is the second front in our war.

AMEN! Yasher koach! And many thanks for passing it along.
Baruch Hashem you have seen the reality of their "friendship". Cant wait to see you in Israel the land in which all real Jews have a share.
Part of the problem is many Jews, even religious Jews, desire allies. They think we are too weak to go it alone. So when the notsrim seemingly want to be our friend, they think great, forgetting that everything that is free will be paid for twice.
KL, my opinion of Messianics has never changed. I believe them to be a deadly threat. Nonetheless, I am not against Christian co-operation against Islamc if there is an explicit promise against missionization.
Bar Kochba---Anyone who identifies as a Christian is by definition a missionizer. It is a missionizing religion. It is their divine mandate given by their master and they will lie if necessary if that's what it takes. They are great twisters of the language. You should understand that they make a distinction between "proselytizing" and "sharing their faith with one who asks." That's why they give gifts...so that Jews will ask why they love them or why they do this kindness. Then they can "share" and it's not "proselytizing" since they did not initiate the discussion.
devash -- how's that paranoia going for you? True Christians are people of honor with a divine mandate to tell the truth.
