Was Netanyahu Telling the Truth to Christians?
Hameed Abdul Karim
In his fire and brimstone speech to the joint session of the US Congress and Senate, Benjamin Netanyahu bragged that in his country Christians were free to practice their faith without let or hindrance to a thunderous standing ovation. Amongst the audience there were the born-again evangelical Christians in the assembly to whom loyalty to their country was second to Israel.
But Netanyahu was not speaking the truth.
Spitting at Christians
For starters he should have told the ‘august assembly’ that Israeli Jews believe it is their religious duty to spit at Christians to gain a few brownie points for the hereafter and that the Jewish state has turned a blind to this practice for years.
