The Right to Kill?
The Israeli government says it is only defending itself. Thus US and UK governments support them in this. It is of course palpable nonsense to say that Israel's current actions against Lebanon and Gaza are self defense. Civilians are being deliberately targeted. Even some Israeli pilots and soldiers are refusing to take part in these actions. This is not self defense this is conquest.
And the leaders of these nations claim to follow God. This too is a palpable lie and one for which they will pay dearly unless they get to some serious repentance some time soon. One only has to read the ten commandments, common to both Christians and Jews, that killing and stealing are not activities that those who follow God should be taking part in. Or how about "love your neighbour as yourself"? Jesus has some stern words for those left in charge of his domain who do not follow God's ways, he says: "What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others." Whether you interpret this literally or not, these people are in serious trouble. One can only assume they have no belief in God and are just cynically using his name for their own ends yet again.
