Tucker Carlson: How Does the Government of Israel Treat Christians? Christian Leaders in the West Should Care

Reverend Munther Isaac , Youtube screenshot

Last month, Republican Congressman Tim Walberg, a former Evangelical Pastor, said the US should not spend a dime on humanitarian aid for Gaza. He said he would like to see the area treated like Hiroshima and Nagasaki and to get it over quickly. He added that the same should go for Ukraine.

Tucker Carlson said that Christianity is the religion among all world religions that uniquely abhors mass killing and there’s no excuse for that from a Christian perspective. Reverend Munther Isaac, the pastor at the Evangelical Lutheran Christian Church in Bethlehem, said that most leaders have a shallow knowledge of Israel but hold strong opinions shaped by their political party rather than investigation of the facts. Their decisions impact millions of lives. He said that Evangelical Christians support Israel because of the theology of Christian Zionism that teaches Christians must support Israel as the presence of Jews prepares for the end times and the second coming of Christ. Christians support Israel as a fulfillment of prophecy not realizing the consequences on real lives.

Reverend Isaac said that many Evangelical leaders believe that in the end times, leading to the return of Christ, after Jews are gathered in Palestine, two-thirds of them will be massacred and only the remaining third will to convert to Christianity. 

He said that Christians should advocate for peace and that money and energy should be invested in peace rather than supporting Israel unconditionally. Israel should be held accountable for its actions. He added that the church is also part of the problem. The Bible does not call for unconditional support to a political entity.

Christians in the US have failed to stand up for other Christians because Israel is an ally.

Christians in Israel have suffered collective punishment along with Palestinians and are not allowed to leave Gaza.

Rev. Isaac said the war in Gaza can be described as genocide because of the forced starvation. 

He stated that the only way to rescue the Christian presence in Israel is to end the occupation and bring a peaceful solution to the situation. “This is what we’re asking for.”

Christians are suffering. He pleaded for the war in Gaza to stop.

American Foreign Policy, the MIC, Zionism and now this genocide in Gaza, have nothing to do with God’s Word and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Whenever any criticism of the modern state of Israel is deemed “anti-Semitic”, this is inaccurate since most of the Jewish people in Israel are not even Semitic people but rather are Ashkenazi Jewish people of European descent descended from the Khazar empire. Christian Zionists erroneously equate the modern state of Israel with Israel from the biblical times. Christian conservatives may condemn the criminals who have hijacked our American govt; why would they give similar criminals running Israel a pass to do whatever they want?

You said it perfectly. I wish everyone could see behind the curtain. But so many of us in this country have no logic, and without logic we are lost.

This article seems to draw a false dichotomy between Christian and Palestinian. There are Christian as well as Muslim Arabs. There are Arab citizens of Israel and Arab (non-citizen) residents of the territories. And anyway, “Palestinian” means “Philistine” and none of them are that! (The conflict is generated by Islam.) The whole thing is a constructed mess to obscure the fact that there is and ever only has been one nation on that land – Israel. Satanic hatred of Israel and Jews, stems from God’s oft-stated unique love for the Land and People of Israel, and it underlies the whole… Read more »

04/12/2024 Do you folks want to hear a simple, clear perspective on all this Israel stuff from someone who learns Torah with Orthodox rabbis every week? Here I’ve written out a simple explanation of (1) what’s happening in Israel and (2) the deeper reason for the facts on the ground (which does have to do with the Creator). Religious Jews are set up by the Torah-hating government to be hated by secular (non-religious) Israelis. The IDF is like one big U.S. university preaching Marxism and its reason for mandatory service is to brainwash alone. They have far greater numbers than… Read more »

There is a lot of truth here, but there’s one overriding non-truth: that Yeshua is not the promised Messiah of Israel. It was the Torah Pharisees of His day, and since, who tinkered with prophecy actually altering the Essene Calendar to make it appear that Christ isn’t the Christ. I can assure you that He is (the Son) and was sent by I Am (the Father) for both Jew (first) and the Gentile alike! It was only because of plurality rejection of Christ by the Jews that Saul/(Paul)of Tarsus was appointed by YHWH/the Son, to bring His gospel to the… Read more »

The Christians in Gaza are being held along with non-terrorist Muslin civilians, as a “human shield”(and always have been), by the Iranian backed militant proxy of Hamas! Would it not make sense for them to surrender to the IDF in preparation for a welcome eventual “prisoner exchange?”

Why is Biden reported wanting no egress of non-combatants, from the Hamas war zone?

I would like to hear some others thoughts on this.

1) Hamas has built their tunnels and weaponry to use the schools and hospitals and likely churches as human shields.. 2) Those christians CHOSE to not seek the SAFETY of the SOUTH that Israelis setup in advance so THEIR OWN ACTS HAVE DEADLY CONSEQUENCES 3) The Gazans have sat there for over a DECADE with NO ATTEMPT to take power away from the suicide-favoring and tyrannic and trouble making HAMAS.. so the priest braying about the plight of LIVING UNDER ISRAELI TYRANNY should EXAMINE HIS OWN LYING since he is sanctifying THE TYRANNY UNDER HAMAS… Seriously disappointed in Tucker and… Read more »
