Anyhow, he handed out pamphlets and wanted to talk to people, and for his trouble he did not simply get the brush off, but was subjected to people spitting in his face.

This is a problem in Israel actually. Apparently it is socially acceptable for religious Jews to spit on Christians. It is bizarre. Pretty sure it is a very small minority that do that, but several of my friends that visited Jerusalem saw it happen and it shocked them.

However, as Christians we should ever be mindful that they are the race from which Christ came, and we should continue to pray for their salvation.

Indeed. I guess this is what is so infuriating. So many of us conservatives support the Jewish state and the Jewish people. When these European nations go through their anti-semetic episodes and look the other way while their "youth" go beat up Jews, it is American conservatives that make a big deal about how that should not be tolerated. Our thanks is for American Jews to promptly go vote for the political party that will do absolutely nothing to stop any of this and would abandon Israel in a heartbeat. It's like trying to be friends with someone who you know absolutely loathes you.
