ANTI-ZIONISM
Are we to believe it is just a coincidence that anti-Zionist "birds of a feather" include the likes of Nazis, skinheads, white supremacists, Soviet communists, the vast majority of Muslims, Louis Farrakan and the "Nation of Islam" and George Soros and his Center for American Progress?
The subject of Zionism is so high profile and divisive we dedicated a website to the topic and moved the content of this page there.

Note on being born again
Was Hitler really a Christian as suggested through the buffoonery of lying Greek sophist styled antichrist entertainers like Ahmed Deedat? Hitler obviously became whatever suited his purposes to pretend to be at any given time. But what was his honest opinion?
(Dec. 13th, 1941) “Christianity is an invention of sick brains: one could imagine nothing more senseless…”
There is no shortage of quotes from Hitler lauding praises on Muhammad. No surprise then to learn that Hitler was a fan of the famous 19th century Satanist Madame Helena Blavatsky.
A characteristic of many anti-Zionists that believe themselves to be Christian, is their suggestion that recognizing the physical reality of the restoration of the Jews to their land - in fulfillment of prophecy - is the result of John Darby's 19th century dispensational eschatology. Yet most of these same glass-house-dwelling finger-pointers seem ignorant to the origin of preterist eschatology that drives anti-Zionism in that part of the "church", that was created by a 17th century Roman Catholic Jesuit named Luis del Alcazar in an anti-reformation effort. Since each must consider the other to be virtually 100% in error regarding their view of Revelation since a 1900 year gulf divides the two views, not surprisingly both futurism and preterism necessarily preclude even considering that Muhammad could be THE false prophet of the book of Revelation.
Prophecy regarding the restoration of Jews to their land was recognized long before that restoration began to take place. Click here for a list of some prophecies, and click here for more on the subject.
Matthew Henry - "If God will build Jerusalem for the people and their comfort, they must inhabit it for him and his glory. The promises and privileges with which God's people are blessed, should engage us to join them, whatever it costs us."
Isaac Newton - “Hence I observe these things, first that the restauration of the Jewish nation so much spoken of by the old Prophets respects not the few Jews who were converted in the Apostles days, but the dispersed nation of the unbelieving Jews to be converted in the end when the fullness of the Gentiles shall enter....."
More such pre-19th century (pre-dispensationalism) quotes at page bottom at this link.
Considering the book of Revelation through the traditional continuous-historic context of the reformers, in conjunction with application of sound hermeneutic principles, places Muhammad squarely in the role of THE false prophet of Revelation, and his Islamic empire in the role of the kingdom "beast" of Revelation chapter 13, as the final foe of God's people.
For over 30 years Ellis Skolfield has written about the role of Islam in bible prophecy through this traditional context. The free book "The False Prophet" is available at this link.
Characteristic of Internet anti-Zionists is rewritten history and Islamic propaganda masquerading as "history", that begins in either the mid-20th, or late 19th, centuries. Conveniently left out are the early 1800s when Jews actually began to return to the Holy Land and fruit the desert, after 1200 years of Islamization had rendered Israel spiritually, as well as physically, desolate. Jerusalem reduced to a population of just 550 with the Promised Land laid to waste, denuded of vegetation, and abandoned, with virtually nobody in the world having an interest in Israel on any level.
In "A History of the Jews" Paul Johnson writes on page 321: "Between 1827 and 1839, largely through British efforts, the population of Jerusalem rose from 550 to 5,500 and in all Palestine it topped 10,000 - the real beginning of the Jewish return to the Promised Land."
Even 30 years later in 1867 Mark Twain described it thus: “There is not a solitary village throughout its whole extent; not for thirty miles in either direction… One may ride ten miles hereabouts and not see ten human beings … Nazareth is forlorn… Jericho lies a mouldering ruin… Bethlehem and Bethany, in their poverty and humiliation… untenanted by any living creature… [a] desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds-a silent mournful expanse.... A desolation is here that not even imagination can grace with the pomp of life and action. We never saw a human being on the whole route....There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere. Even the olive and the cactus, those fast friends of the worthless soil, had almost deserted the country.”

An instructive way to consider the two sides of Zionism and anti-Zionism, is to read the words of those who defend their position, on each side of the debate, on youtube videos. Read the comments for yourself.
"Jews against Zionism" meeting with Ahmadinejad (based in New York they don't have to live in Israel) They are the darlings of youtube Muslims, and skinhead anti-Zionists and antisemites.
David Duke of the KKK supporting the Muslim Brotherhood conquest of Egypt.
Here's someone from The United Church of Canada on the subject
Try a search - protocols of zion - or - christian zionism - and read the comment section on those videos. You will not likely find those arguing in favor of the return of Jews to their land, expressing themselves with the same vitriol, animus and adolescent language employed by those that reject it. Is that just another coincidence?
Anti-Zionists are among the most prolific at proof-texting the following verse, while pointing the finger at all Jews by lumping agnostic and atheist Jews in with faithful Jews:
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and [I know] the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but [are] the synagogue of Satan.
It has become increasingly apparent to me that those doing the most finger-pointing may be the very ones that are implicated by that verse. Are the same individuals that view Jews as a monolithic group, thereby placing themselves in a monolithic group that includes agnostic, atheist, and Muslim gentiles?
In pointing the finger they also disregard how a Jew is defined:
Romans 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.

I've posted on lots of anti-Zionist videos and in channel comments, frequently leaving a link to part 2 of a video on Zionism titled "The Anti-Zionist Goal". My posts have been erased, and I have even been replied to by the uploader, and then follow-up comments censored and blocked from the channel, to prevent my responding to their reply. As in the case of this Islam supporting self-professed Christian.
Few subjects offer more clarity, with folks wearing their hearts right out there on their sleeves, than this subject of Zionism. Why not share your anti-Zionist views in the comment section of that 13 minute video by clicking on the second link below this video. What could be so dangerous or revealing, in regard to the position anti-Zionists so fervently adhere to, that seems to preclude anti-Zionists from commenting on that video?
Please come visit the Islam-Christian Forum where we have a forum section dedicated to the subject of Zionism and anti-Zionism.
Who's side are you on, the Israelis, or the false prophet Muhammad's?
Zechariah 12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. 10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for [his] only [son], and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for [his] firstborn.

"God is going to invade this earth in force. But what's the good of saying you're on his side then, when you see the whole natural universe melting away like a dream and something else, something it never entered your head to conceive comes crashing in. Something so beautiful to us and so terrible to others that none of us will have any choice left. This time it will be God without disguise; something so overwhelming that it will strike either irresistible love, or irresistible horror into every creature. It will be too late then to choose your side. There is no use saying you choose to lie down, when it's become impossible to stand up. That will not be the time for choosing; it will be the time when we discover which side we really have chosen, whether we realize it or not. Now, today, in this moment, is our chance to choose the right side. God is holding back to give us that chance. It will not last forever; we must take it or leave it." - C.S. Lewis
Whose side will the Lord find you on should He return today? The Israeli Jews, Christians and non-Muslim Arabs, or the enemies of Israel?
Likewise In 1835 Alphonse de Lamartine wrote: “Outside the city of Jerusalem, we saw no living object, heard no living sound. . .a complete eternal silence reigns in the town, in the highways, in the country.”[7]
In 1844, William Thackeray writes about the road from Jaffa to Jerusalem: “Now the district is quite deserted, and you ride among what seem to be so many petrified waterfalls. We saw no animals moving among the stony brakes; scarcely even a dozen little birds in the whole course of the ride.”[8]
In 1857, the British consul in Palestine, James Finn, reported: “The country is in a considerable degree empty of inhabitants and therefore its greatest need is that of a body of population.”[9]
In 1866, W.M. Thomson writes: “How melancholy is this utter desolation. Not a house, not a trace of inhabitants, not even shepherds, to relieve the dull monotony … Much of the country through which we have been rambling for a week appears never to have been inhabited, or even cultivated; and there are other parts, you say, still more barren.”[10]
In 1874, Reverend Samuel Manning wrote: “But where were the inhabitants? This fertile plain, which might support an immense population, is almost a solitude…. Day by day we were to learn afresh the lesson now forced upon us, that the denunciations of ancient prophecy have been fulfilled to the very letter — “the land is left void and desolate and without inhabitants.” (Jeremiah, ch.44 v.22)[12]
In 1892, B. W. Johnson writes: “In the portion of the plain between Mount Carmel and Jaffa one sees but rarely a village or other sights of human life… A ride of half an hour more brought us to the ruins of the ancient city of Cæsarea, once a city of two hundred thousand inhabitants, and the Roman capital of Palestine, but now entirely deserted… I laid upon my couch at night, to listen to the moaning of the waves and to think of the desolation around us.”[13]
In 1913, a British report, by the Palestinian Royal Commission, quotes an account of the conditions on the coastal plain along the Mediterranean Sea: “The road leading from Gaza to the north was only a summer track, suitable for transport by camels or carts. No orange groves, orchards or vineyards were to be seen until one reached the [Jewish] Yabna village. Houses were mud. Schools did not exist. The western part toward the sea was almost a desert. The villages in this area were few and thinly populated. Many villages were deserted by their inhabitants.”
In 1635, Brightman wrote a commentary on Daniel 11-12 which he sub-titled, 'The restoring of the Jewes and their callinge to the faith of Christ after the utter overthrow of their three enemies is set forth in livelie colours.'
John Owen 1616-1683 - The Jews shall be gathered from all parts of the earth where they are scattered, and brought home into their homeland.
In 1641, the British Puritan leader, Oliver Cromwell stated, "And it may be, as some think, God will bring the Jews home to their station, 'from all the isles of the sea,' and answer their expectations 'as from the depths of the sea.'
George Gawler (1796-1869) wrote a book in 1845 stating that the Jews were to replenish the deserted towns and fields of Palestine.
In 1649 the English Puritans, Ebenezer and Joanna Cartwright, living in Amsterdam, petitioned the British Government to lift the ban on Jews settling in England, and to assist them to move to Palestine:
"That this Nation of England, with the inhabitants of the Netherlands, shall be the first and the readiest to transport Israel's sons and daughters on their ships to the land promised to their forefathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for an everlasting inheritance."
