Many people question the authenticity of the Bible. Here's something to ponder. How did the Jewish prophets know over 2000 years ago that Jerusalem would be the religious and political hot-spot it is today? Keep in mind these prophecies were written hundreds of years before Jesus Christ arrived (these texts are found in the Torah). In those days, Egypt and Greece (?) had the most far-reaching power. Allah hadn't even been thought up, yet. Interesting thought, eh?

Yeah it is. but many people would say that the strife in the middle east is a result of what the Jews "believe" to be THEIR homeland. Rather than land that has changed hands many times over the years.

While I treasure Israel as a trusted ally of America, I have a hard time defending their claim to Israel. It's too bad Israel didn't kick the crap out of the Palistinians 200 years ago...No one would be complaining today.
