Obviously, Marty, you don't know who Mel Mermelstein is. Amazing! Seems I know more about Jewish history than you do. And one doesn't need to have been there to know what was going on. Good education, and I read a lot.   

The reason "Christian" fundamentalists are so in favor of backing Israel against all threats is that part of their mythology says that Jesus will not come again until the Nation of Israel is established and it triumphs once and for all over all of the threats against it. Once this is accomplished, they believe, Jesus will return and the Anti-Christ and all the Forces of Evil will be defeated in the Battle of Armageddon. Then, in the process of "separating the sheep from the goats," Jews will be given an opportunity to convert to Christianity and accept Jesus as the True Messiah.

Those Jews who do not convert will be sent to Hell.

Think about it.

Jews who collaborate with "Christian" fundamentalists because of their policy toward Israel are making a pack with the Devil.
