'Totally devastated': Major Christian broadcaster suffers catastrophic firebombing

It’s one of the largest Christian networks in the world, and it has now become the victim of a catastrophic firebombing.

The Jerusalem studios of Daystar were completely destroyed over the weekend during a weekend arson attack.

“Reduced to a pile of rubble and ashes,” said network owner Marcus Lamb. “I’m certain the enemy thought this attack would be fatal to our efforts to share the Gospel across Israel. But as usual, he’s wrong. What the devil meant for evil, God will use for our good.”

“We have opened an investigation,” Israel Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told the Jerusalem Post. “All directions are being looked at.”

Just think of the outrage had it been some moose limb outfit. But, meh, just some trouble making Christians.

It would be above the fold, scare headline news. Instead....

How sad. I’ve watched Daystar sometimes, and recall sometimes their people in Israel would be on the air.

Hopefully they rebuild bigger and better than ever.

Now, they need to open up funding and couple it with whatever insurance money as to make the new building twice the size. Meanwhile, I’m confident that the Yamam will track and find and hurt the arsonist. It’s what they do on weekends, before breakfast, just for fun.

I suspect it probably wasn’t Muslims who did it.

While in all likelihood, Muslims were the culprits but the strict fundamentalist Jews also dislike prostelytizing Christians (particularly in their homeland) and have been known to take extreme actions at times. The Gospel is offensive to both Muslims and Jews.

I corrected that sentence from the previous post or it would have driven me nuts.

The arson was committed by (pick one):

1) Jews
2) Christians
3) Moslems
4) Buddhists
5) Hindoos
6) Mormons
7) Little green men from Mars

Take your time ...

Here’s a clue...It wasn’t the Devil, Jews, Armenians or Bigfoot.
It was Muslims.

You left out false flag attack by Sunnis to implicate Shias, and false flag attack by Shias to implicate Sunnis.

“Sunni” and “Shia” are subsets of “Moslem”.

This was clearly the work of a French restoration crew that left hours before the blaze.
