Just what the middle-east needed…
… and many of the right-wing USAmerican “Christians” - George Bush telling the Israeli’s that they are a “chosen people” who can count on USAmerican support against enemies like Hamas and Iran.
Speaking of the “promise of God” for a “homeland for the chosen people” in Israel, Bush told the Israeli parliament after a visit to the Roman-era Jewish fortress at Masada: “Masada shall never fall again, and America will always stand with you.”
And this was while he is trying to set up talks with Palenstine and Israel. But it get’s worse…
Bush described the “bonds of the Book” — faith in the Bible shared by Christians like himself and Jews — as bolstering an “unbreakable” alliance between Israel and the United States.
Oh great…..
