Dear Critic,
«the US funds terrorists to promote Israels religious based foreign policy»
What makes you think that Israel's foreign policy has anything to do with religion?
Is it because its cynical leaders quote the bible, selectively of course?
Firstly, the old testament was heavily tampered with, converting it from a religious book into a national document that aggrandises David's and Solomon's cruel dynasty.
Secondly, Israel is currently controlled by "Jews" who only believe in one book of the bible - the book of Joshua, where the conquering of the land of Israel is described. The previous 5 books provide a long list of commandments, dos and donts which ought to govern the life of a Jew and then states: "If you follow my commandments, then I will give you the land [of Israel], but if you fail to follow them then I will take it away from you", which is just what happened when the Assyrians, Babylonians, Greeks and Romans took over and exiled the Jews.
