If al Jews lived in Eretz Yisrael
« on: July 16, 2007, 10:33:22 AM »
There was a question asked that if that were to happen, the Arabs would turn against the Jews and drop a bomb to wipe us all out, Gd forbid.

It is predicted that all nations will turn against Israel...But on that day when they try to destroy us, Gd will show Himself and save us..and then whole world will know Who Hashem is...that will usher in the moshiach.

It's hard to convince rational and scientific people to put all their faith in Gd.  If that day were to come that all nations decided to attack little Israel and all Jews living insdie there, it would be quite amazing if their attempts were stopped and everyone saw it as an act of Gd.  Just like what happened to the Egyptians and the slaved Israelites!

Of course, that is what G-d says, it is true.

The Bolsheviks would first need to give up control of the government or else they'd end up surrendering before any potential attack were to occur.

Um....would all the Jews even be able to fit in Israel, or will the entire middle east be conquered by the Jews?

Jews have no interest in taking over the entire mid east. The land they presently have including 'west bank' and gaza is big enough for all the Jews.

BTW: Biblical Greater Israel actually encompasses Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, parts of Saudi and Iraq.....but the Jews ( being nice guys) are prepared to forego that land for now in the interests of peace.

  :-\How many Jews are there in the World, are you sure it is big enough how it is?

Overcrowding will lead to problems.

If we really needed to, Israel could fit all of the Jews in the entire world into pre-1967 Israel.  The Galilee and the Negev have lots of open space, no problem.
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

Only short term - tactically. Eventually, we must have it, of course.

I agree, Masha but let's not give hysterical anti-semites any ammo. (PS: I don't mean you, Sarah) :)

THe borders that Gd allows for Jews to have according to the Bible is the Nile to the Euphrates.  Commentaries have suggested that the Jews cannot have all of the territories all at once because the number of Jewish people are sparce and that wild animals will be a constant danger to the small population in those areas.  There are other commentaries besides that.

Secondly, the Jewish population is so small today that having the whole middle east would make no sense.  Gd will only give us what we need and what is adequate.

Still...........when B'nai Yisroel reclaim all that desert, they'll be able to grow a helluva lot of olive trees and the like. With the growing market for bio- fuel, all that land could come in handy.

I bet they'd also prefer wild animals to muslims. :laugh:
