Giving them water?!

So (forget for the moment that he used inaccurate data and in fact lied to the Israeli Knesset) Martin Schultz, the president of the European Parliament, is upset because Israel provides its citizens with more water than it gives to the Palestinian Arabs.

Really?

This is an interesting equation:

The Palestinian Arab leadership hates Israel.

The Palestinian Authority/AKA the PLO raises its children to hate Israel.

The Palestinian Authority seeks to rob the Jews of their ancestral homeland and create in it a state of their own.

The PLO’s un-amended charter makes no secret of the fact that these Arabs do not want to live in peace with Israel, but to destroy Israel.

The PLO’s still referenced “Phased Plan” of 1974 openly states how it will use land it has acquired in “peace talks” as a stage from which to acquire the rest of the land by force.

In pursuit of phase 1 of their plan, Palestinian Arabs have been waging a terrorism war against Israel that has seen thousands of Jews murdered, devastated tens of thousands of Jewish lives and generated massive international pressure on Israel to accept and give its assent to the PLO theft of the Jews’ ancestral lands.

And in accordance with phase 2 of this plan, since being given every last cm of the Gaza Strip by Israel in 2005, Palestinian Arabs have used that land to fire thousands of rockets at Israel’s civilian population centers adjacent to it.

Palestinian Arab civilians have overwhelmingly supported this use of terrorism against Jewish civilians in Israel, and they continue to do so.

Surely, in every reasonable sense of the phrase, the Palestinian Arabs who support violence, terror, the dismemberment and destruction of Israel can be termed “enemies of the state.”

And yet Israel provides them with water, gas, electricity, medical care and employment?

Mmmm – now Who was it who said: “Love your enemies?” And where is this written: If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink; for so you will heap coals of fire on his head and the Lord will reward you? It’s not in the Quran!

I’d like to see which of the world’s so-called Christian nations – if there are any left – would treat those intent on their destruction in this way.

(Please note: This comment applauds Israel’s magnanimity – it does not begrudge the Arabs what they get from Israel.)

  1. First, I want to say thank you to Stan Goodenough for standing firm on the watchmen’s wall. I appreciate the sacrifice you have made to live in Israel all these years with your family. I had the opportunity to meet and listen to Jan V. from Holland who is /was connected with Israel My Glory while visiting Israel, with my friend Joy who personally knows Jan and Stan. We were in Israel in February 2008. I saw first hand, standing on the property of a Kibbutz just a stones throw away from the Gaza Wall, how the Palestinian’s shot a rocket over the wall. Thank the LORD God of Israel, that He protected the people from getting hurt. It landed in the field near us. It is a frightening daily occurrence ( a many time occurrence) for these precious peaceful Israeli’s. Our God is a God of Peace (Shalom). And so are His people. They are an example of His Peace (The Prince of Peace – Sar Shalom) and a people of His love and gentleness. We could certainly learn a few things from their exemplary example.
    Thank you Stan, for your commitment to the Truth of the Word of God and to His People.

  2. “But the land (Israel) which you cross over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the rain of heaven, a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year.” Dt. 11:11-12 The LORD made an everlasting covenant w/Israel regarding the land. HE is watching ! HE sees the hateful acts of Israel’s enemies! Messiah is coming & will right all the wrongs. In the meantime, we pray for the Jewish people & support ministries that reach out to them!

  3. Jesus loves Israel. He is also the Rock of offence. Who ever hurls himself on or against Israel will be offended without remedy.

  4. and The LORD GOD created The Jewish People miraculously and They are and ALWAYS will be The Chosen People !! No surprise then that they carry out so magnamiously God’s character is blessing His enemies ! May we all truly walk in His Love – 1 Corinthians 13

  5. God Himself will lift Israel up again and again… They live in the land He gave them and have to defend what is theirs. There will be surprises in store for all who seek to destroy God´s people. Sudden destruction and terrible loss. Better to obey God.

  6. @M. Guagliardo This problem WILL be solved. We serve the King of Kings who set the universe in place; he hasn’t forgotten his first love; the apple of his eye. Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done marvelous things! 22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field; for the open pastures are springing up, and the tree bears its fruit;
    the fig tree and the vine yield their strength. 23 Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God; for He has given you the former rain faithfully,[d]and He will cause the rain to come down for you—the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. 24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
    25 “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, the consuming locust, and the chewing locust,[e]My great army which I sent among you.26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and My people shall never be put to shame. 27 Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the LORD your God and there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame. Joel 2:21-27

  7. When we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we are praying for this to come about also….

    Isaiah 19:22 ” And the Lord shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to the Lord, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.23 In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.24 In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land:25 Whom the Lord of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance.

  8. Unless the seed and pursuit of truth is in your heart you will believe a lie; thank God for those who will examine their own conscience!

  9. This man is actually known in Israel’s political circles as Pro-Israel. As president of the EU he has often spoken out and acted in favour of Israel – so printed by an Israeli News Website. Whatever possessed him when he made these unfortunate remarks/statements (with many Knesset members walking out on him during his address) … who needs enemies with friends like him?

  10. The problem will never be solved. Never. Giving away pieces of the promised Land will WORSEN the situation for Israel. Israel should speak clear with its enemies, and say: “Or you accept us and live in peace with us; or, the only alternative we have is to DESTROY YOU COMPLETELY. Why can Israel’s enemies could say OPENLY that they aim to DESTROY Israel, and Israel cannot say the same about them? Why?

  11. I am glad that there are Palestinian Arabs who are appreciative of having jobs and benefits provided by Israel,
    and the few amongst them who have received the Truth of the Gospel even love Israel’s God.
