Why Evangelical Christians Love Israel | VICE on HBO 

Since this report, VICE has returned to the region multiple times. Check out our latest report from the deadliest day in Gaza since 2014 - bit.ly/2IEyc2J

"Our religion says this is our land, respect our religion" Native americans: 👁️👄👁️

Israelis: "Why are you helping us?" Evangelicals: "So 2/3 of you can die at Armageddon"

Jesus would cry out loud for the injustice happening in Palestine.

came back to this video and just struck by how insidiously evil it is for that pastor to tell palestinian christians to just "stay out of this conflict," as if bombs aren't being dropped on palestinians of all religions. how exactly do you expect any palestinian to just "stay out of" the violent destruction of their land and families?

I’m a Christian and I’m so sick of these kind of people. They’re so focused on the end times that they neglect the people who they are supposed to serve. The poor, the outcast, the orphan, the widow, and the homeless.

“I read the Bible, and I don’t remember reading that Jesus was a real estate agent..” 😂

As a Christian, I say FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

Yes. Growing up evangelical Christian I can attest that this is correct. There’s a lot of historical ignorance, and a blind faith in ideology. It causes them to lose their humanity, to lose the Love which is supposed to extend to everyone, the same.

a bus full of Susans and Carols supporting a cause they don't even understand.

If a prophecy is real it won’t need your help to come true

Wild how the bible apparently names countries that didn't even exist at the time.

it's like witnessing a mass psychosis.

I didn't know Russia and Turkey were countries when the book of revelations were written.

as a Christian I think these people are ridiculous. I think that the Palestinians deserve a voice.

Evangelical logic :Why help the poor when you could usher in Armageddon 😂

I grew up thinking that Christians were the most progressive and pragmatic people, but evangelical Christians have once again reassured me that no religion is free of stereotypes, mythical events and unrealistic beliefs.

I must have missed the verse where god predicts the UN invading Israel. Might need to reread that

Never knew "America First" involved blindly supporting a foreign nation on the other side of the world ...

I love that a doomsday cult is one of the biggest players in American politics.

"can you imagine thousands of tanks out here in this valley rumbling, fighting, firing. can you imagine jet engines screaming overhead" he should be asking that to the palestinian people

"I read the Bible, and I never saw the Bible say that God is a real estate agent" had me geeking looool

There is a huge difference between allowing someone to practice their religion in peace, and allowing people to justify an ethnic cleansing with scripture.

This is why the USA Needs free mental health care

Do they think Jesus will be pleased with them after all the innocent Palestinians they have killed?

Palestinian Christians : 👁️ 👄 👁️

“Don’t underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups” - Carlin

as a TRUE follower of Christ I will always stand with Palestine.

I was serving as humanitarian worker during Lebanon war 2006 and as a Christian I really struggle about Christians must support Israel. A bomb was dropped by Israel 200 meter from me while I was distributing relief goods for Lebanese coming across to Syria then. I also know there are Christian humanitarian workers struggle with this issue. Now that I worked more with Christian of different denominations outside of the influence of US churches in different countries in South and East Asia and I realised this is not so and this video just confirmed it is just a US evangelical thing.

These people literally WANT the world to end LOL

"If I were a Palestinian Christian I would just stay out of this all together." This man is a walking incarnation of the pot calling the kettle black.

Finally found a video that explains this. And this is relevant to what's happening right now. Keep it up Vice !

Imagine wishing the world would end so you can meet your imaginary friend who has been disappointing you for 2000 years, and use that as justification to support an ongoing genocide.

Respecting someone’s religion doesn’t mean letting them have whatever they claim their god says is theirs. That’s illogical & insane.

This angers me. You can be Christian and love Israeli people, but that doesn’t mean you have to agree with their government and condone their actions. Israel can do and has done the wrong thing. That should not be supported. I love when the guy said “I read the Bible and I never saw the Bible says that God is a real estate agent.” Preach it!

I grew up in Israel as a Korean as my parents were evangelical Christian missionaries. I can attest to this video.

Anybody wondering about the recent bloodshed between the two need to watch this video. Sad what has become of Palestine in the name of Zionism. Prayers to all affected 🙏🙏🙏

helpless natives defending their land with sticks and stones versus an enemy with guns and bullets... where have I seen this before?

Trying to artificially kickstart the endtimes is not only absurdly egotistical, in that it means you think humans can engineer the acts of God, it also shows how little faith they actually have. That they have to force the prophecies to happen instead of just letting it happen means you really don't think much of God's word in terms of what's going to happen after all.

The tour guy said the bible talks about Russia, Turkey, Iran? 😂😂

"I never saw that the bible says that god is a real estate agent."

Never remember the bible saying the russians and ethiopians will invade Israel lol

“You have more fun as a follower, but you make more money as a cult leader” -Creed

This is sick beyond belief, makes me embarrassed to publicly say I am a Christian myself, I don’t recognise them.

I think all of us Christians can say we don't accept evangelicals as Christians☦✝>🏳‍🌈✡

That army of visiting misinformed karens is a formidable force.

Do not ask what your country can do for you. Ask what your country can do for Israel.

"God is not a real-estate agent."

They spit at Christian’s in Jerusalem, I’m a Palestinian I know. Also look it up. It’s on RU-vid

Watching Palestinian Catholics give evangelicals the finger gives me hope for the world.

" If I were a Palestinian Christian, I wouldn't involve myself in this conflict" says the Evangelical Christian from the U.S. What has he done for the oppressed Palestinian Christians?

Hello from 2023. Just here educating myself a little more on why Americans are still so heavily entrenched in the conflict. I’ve never understood why Americans, specifically Christian Americans, were so DEEPLY invested in Israel.

Now I understand the core of why the conflict won't end.

9:56 “we’re not giving up our land” so he wants the Jewish people to ‘not give up their land’, but expects Palestinians to hand over all remaining land. So blatantly disregarding all Palestinians a right to a independent nation. Smells like apartheid supporter

"the bible teaches russia, iran" no the bible does not mention russian or iranian governments like you think it does

11:20 "I've read the Bible, and I never saw that the Bible says that God is a real estate agent." - Palestinian Christian Lol 😂

The guys killed Jesus and the evangelicals defend them now.. that's crazy!

Listen to the actual Christian who is native to the land!

All I can say is that i've visited Israel, travelled through Jerusalem , the west bank, all of it, and I never experienced the kind of hospitality I got in Palestinian run accommodations. I remember staying in Bethlehem, and saying happy birthday to a friend on the trip in the lobby that morning, when we got home in the evening for dinner the owner took a huge birthday cake out during dinner - he had heard me say happy birthday and literally went out and bought a cake for us! It was that level of just human compassion. Seeing bomb debris, signs strung up in the west bank with missing peoples faces on them and details of how these people were tortured and murdered, with the only justice their families can hope to get is to canvas this info and hope that somebody sees it. Broke my heart. You see all this, and in amongst it the Palestinian people doing day to day things, people shopping, kids playing. Just the resilience was like nothing ive ever seen.

This is called psychological slave mentality....

I suggest the evangelical pastors to go and fight for Israel now

I was raised as an Evangelical Christian so this was exactly the stuff I was fed. I'm glad more people are becoming aware of these messed up beliefs.

It's easier to fool people than convince them that they have been fooled.

Vice whatever you do do not take this down.

THE SEEMS TO PREACH MORE ISREAL THAN THEY DO OF CHRIST

Watching grown adults get wild-eyed and frothy-lipped describing their delusions is the scariest and creepiest thing there is.

"If I don't steal your home, someone else is going to" Setler to a Palestinian!

How can people believe this ridiculousness? We're doomed.

How is this not being shared everywhere?

Many shall come in my name and deceive many.... -Jesus Christ

9:55 "You have to respect our religion" but when other religion doesn't say that Jerusalem belongs to Israel, you don't have to respect it? And when they're bombing children in Gaza, you don't even feel the need to respect human life? This man has no heart.

This is a death cult

Evangelical Protestants with their constant misinterpretations of Scripture. Thank God I decided to convert to Catholicism.

11:20 "I read the bible, and I didn't see where it said God is a real estate agent " . Realest quote of the entire video

“if i were a palestinian christian, i would just stay out of this” he says as he continues to manipulate the situation while being someone with way less ties to the region than palestinian christians

Second title: "And why Israel never reciprocates"

These people are nuts

My religion says to take over the Buckingham palace, please respect my religion

Tell an evangelical that god gave native Americans this land and see how they feel about that

For people of 🇵🇸 it is fight for right to exist, right to have a peaceful life. For Israel a religious war in which they have American Christian support. Two sides are not same.

If the Evengelist are so concerned about the Israelis getting back whats their's then they should also help the Native Americans get their lands back

I am a Christian not an Evangelical Christian...I don't listen to millionaire prosperity preachers I believe none of them

As a Catholic Christian I cannot and will not understand how "Christians" ,or at least those who call claim to be Christian, support what Israel is doing. I support Palestine and the right of Palestine to exist and prosper. The pastor is right and when Jesus Christ returns he will judge everyone that includes all those who profited from all this violence.

The sheer surprise on their faces when Jesus does indeed descend and denies his connection to these extremists is going to be epic!

How can you respect God if you don’t respect ALL the people he created

The Bible mentions the United Nations? You have got to be kidding me

As a Mexican, I can tell you: This is not only happening in the USA, this also happens in Mexico (And in other places) with their Evangelicals... As I was raised Evangelical in Mexico I can tell you, Evangelicas see Israel as "God homeland". And because they are the "chosen people" you also must love Israel. Israel (With are respect) is far from my country and my country is more related to Lebanon (We had some influential Lebanese Inmigration) So I don't see the need to see Israel as "my second fatherland". The funny thing is that they blame Catholics for "Worship" a pope in the Vatican. But no one in Mexico see the Vatican City as their second homeland. Yes, is an "Holy Site" but is not like a second fatherland. I see myself as a Christian (With no denomination), but I am sick of what people do in the Middle East in name of God. And yep, Evangelicals doesn't represent all Christians...

I wonder how they feel when they found out that Christ was Palestinian

I hope they will all get raptured so us non-religious people can finally live in peace.

"I read the Bible, I didn't know that Jesus was a Real Estate Agent" YOOOOO HE SPITTIN FACTS

So basically, the answer is “because they’re crazy”

I'm a Catholic but I know born again Christians very well. Because they are not limited by any sort of tradition, they can sometimes really mess up the Christian religion. You have to give them that their faith is unshaken, though.

But Jesus said love your neighbors, no? 🤔

That evangelical pastor is the best advertisement I've seen for atheism in a long time

*_They hail israel instead of God._*

Evangelicals completely disregard the Palestinian Christian community in favor of Israel. Let that sink in.

this Boomers are really weird

That preacher has a far more specific bible than the one I've read.

*"God is not a real estate agent!"*

This is the key reason for the Israel Palestine conflict.
