  • No, Queen Rania, It’s Not Israel that’s the Obstacle to Peace-A history lesson for a queen

    03/27/2024 5:46:18 PM PDT · 15 of 16
    Yulee to Chicory

    Queen Rania rules over Jordan.

    A short history: At the end of WWI most of the Arab nations were created from the Ottoman Empire. Transjordan (1923) along with Syria (1923), Iraq (1921), Lebanon (1922), and Saudi Arabia (1932) were created out of this empire following the defeat of Germany and her allies.

    A large segment of land called The Palestinian Mandate was set aside to be a restoration of the Jewish homeland (this all prior to WWII and the Holocaust). There were Jews scattered all over the Middle East and Africa. At the time the Arab nations were created with Saudi Princes as rulers over them.

    The sons of Hussein bin Ali, the Grand Emir and Sharif of Mecca were set up as the kings of Iraq and Jordan in the aftermath of the Arab Revolt and World War I.

    Two-thirds of the Palestinian Mandate was given to Abdullah I, a Saudi Prince, and named “Transjordan” indicating it was east of the Jordan river.

    In 1948 Transjordan along with other Arab powers attacked the newly establish nation of Israel. They occupied East Jerusalem and what is called the West Bank (Samaria and Judah). Transjordan then changed its name to simply Jordan. Simply, because the name Transjordan meant their territory should end east of the Jordan River. Jordan then made the inhabitants of the West Bank area Jordanian citizens.

    Up to and after the establishment of Israel Arabs referred to themselves as Arab, not Palestinian. In fact until the establishment of Israel, only the Jewish population referred to themselves as Palestinian.

    Refugee camps were established in the Arab countries surrounding Israel. Arabs who fought against Israel or fled with the idea that they would inherit all the Jewish lands after the Jews were destroyed, made up the residents of these refugee camps. They were not absorbed by the surrounding Arab countries. A massive number of Jews were expelled from Muslim countries when Israel was created, and most resettled within what is now called Israel.

    In 1967 Israel regained Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank (Judah and Samaria). In 1970 the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) revolted against the Jordanian monarchy and tried to bring it down. The PLO was exiled from Jordan.

    Abdullah II, the fourth Jordanian king, now rules along with his queen Rania a Palestinian born in Kuwait. the previous monarch had an American born wife, Queen Noor. She was of Jordanian descent.

    Queen Rania’s husbands monarchy is an offshoot of the Saudi monarchy. It seems that the rest of the monarchs imposed by the British at the end of WWI have been replace, but not Jordan.

    It still seems strange that there are 22 Arab (Muslim) states with a population of 440 million residents. These nations cover 5 million square miles. There is one Jewish state with a total population of 7.5 square million residents covering a total of .2 million square miles. Yet they claim that Israel should not exist.

  • Harris County district attorney told her ballot was already cast when she went to vote in primary[Texas]

    Yulee to CFW

    How do you “mistakenly” vote for someone else?
    *******

    By mail. No problem. The question is were mail-in ballots sent to all voters, whether requested or not, or did she request the mail-in ballot, then then went to see if she could vote a second time, but got caught.

    Person at table says, “You’ve already voted by mail.” If intentional what do you say?

    If she requested a mail-in ballot, then went to vote in person, why?

    The open question is if the person who actually sent in the ballot also voted in person?

  • MSNBC’s Scarborough: Far Right ‘Invented a Religion,’ Abortion Is Not a Christian Issue

    Yulee to ChicagoConservative27

    “When I was in high school, the Southern Baptist Convention was pro-choice.”
    *************
    I don’t believe the Southern Baptist Convention ever promoted abortion on demand. Since the SBC does not dictate or rule from the top down, liberalism at one point seeped into many congregations.

    There were churches, pastors, and seminary professors that expressed the liberal view that the Bible “contained the Word of God” (each person could pick and choose what parts they wanted to believed), and promoted going along with the general population, in order to win them to Christ, even if what was done was in direct opposition to the literal Word as written in the Bible.

    The majority of SBC churches at the time followed the path that the whole Bible (Old and New Testaments) is the Word of God and inerrant, and brought about a reformation which pushed the liberal professors out of the seminaries. Some seminaries did not conform and eventually were no longer associated with the SBC.

    Of course we are seeing the same thing with the United Methodist Church presently. Unfortunately the ruling body does rule from the top down and churches are having to leave, in order to maintain a Biblical orientation, rather than going with the crowd following the wide path.

    Some denomination have embraced tolerance to such an extent that they no longer look anything like a Biblical faith, and are evolving into the image of the church at Laodicea (”known for its wealth, luxury, and lukewarmness”).

    What happened to the Barbary Pirates?

    This group sounds like they are trying a replay of what the Barbary Pirates did in the Mediterranean. The only thing missing is slavery, but come to think of it, slavery is prevalent in Muslim countries. All was done for the cause of spreading Islam.

    Thomas Jefferson took the matter into his own hands and used the US Marines to settle the matter.

    You know, “From the shores of Tripoli.”

    Unfortunately, they may have already done so, just waiting for a signal. Biden has crated a massive crisis at the southern border, that now has infiltrated across the US.

    How do the Democrats replace Kamala?
    ************
    Lawfully...If they reveal she is ineligible to be President(neither parent being a citizen at the time of her birth), the Speaker of the House takes the oath of office.

    At that point everything changes.

    Unfortunately the Dems will stick to their guns with Kamala, and the Deep State/Media groups will scream that she is eligible.

    Might go to the Supreme Court.

    as evidence suggesting the presence of a structure beneath the demolished Babri Masjid, that was found to be non-Islamic.[12]
    **************
    Done repeatedly throughout the world as Muslims conquered other countries. Muslim conquerors demolished churches, Hindu temples, and any other religious structures they encountered, and placed mosques on the sites, thus fulfilling their call the “Allah is greater”(not great, not greatest, but greater).

    In Turkey the Hagia Sophia (the world's largest cathedral for nearly a thousand years) was turned into a mosque in the 15th century, then a museum in the 1930’s, and now a mosque again by the present government in Turkey.

    Some say that the Dome of the Rock was an Orthodox Christian church, prior to being converted to a second mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The first mosque being the Mosque of Omar (built by a Persian Muslim conqueror around 670 AD.

    If Floridians subject to hurricane’s don’t pay for insurance losses who else will? Who should?
    ******************
    The problem is that residents of the rest of the state, not normally affected by hurricane damage, are carrying the weight of those who purchase expensive homes near the coast. Let those who choose to live near the coast pay a higher rate.

    I’ve lived in Florida for 76 years, and only once or twice been hit with near hurricane force winds (75MPH).

    I hear about Trump being a “populist”
    ***
    When did this become a bad word for the public.

    All elected officials should be populists. Elected by the people, the people’s choice, not a candidate selected by a puppeteer committee of the elite, and force fed to the population.

    It seems the more the mainstream media declares that they are trying to save democracy, the more we are fulfilling the definition of fascism.

    Fascism: “A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism”.

    Given the puppeteer role Barack Obama has played in the present administration, the theory that Biden will be supplanted by Michelle Obama at the eleventh hour is emerging as the most credible.

    The promise: The requirement that each citizen have a driver’s license that meets the “real id” requirement (birth certificate on renewal, prove of residency, etc.) will ensure that non-citizens, or those not submitting the require documentation will not fly.

    The reality: Illegals are flying without “real id”, in fact are flying without any id, yet US citizens are still require to submit such in order to fly.
