NOW - Netanyahu: "Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough, evil will overcome good."
CHRIST IS KING
Serious question - why do you get so upset over what someone from another religion says about Jesus? I am sure many Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, etc. feel similarly. They reject Christ as well.
Netanyahu is lost, like numerous sinners in the world today. Getting angry over someone who doesn't adhere to your beliefs is a very juvenile response to someone's rejection of the Gospel. Do you think you are going to sway them with the angry "Christ is King" retort?
If you are a Christian, we are to be salt and light to a dying world, and to above all, communicate the message of the Gospels to the lost with love - Christ's second greatest commandment - just as He did. Getting angry not only serves no purpose, it is sinful.
You should care because your ability to peacefully coexist with someone is largely shaped on what you believe about each other. Trust, ultimately, is really about predictability.
In order to predict someone's behavior, you have to understand them.
Fun fact:
Islam recognizes the virgin birth, recognizes Mary's role in the birth of Jesus, recognizes Jesus as Messiah, and recognizes the validity of his miracles, including the raising of the dead.
In Judaism, you can be an atheist and a member in good standing within your synagogue. If, however, you believe Jesus is Messiah, you are deemed an apostate. There is a whole lot more, you can research.
Gotta say, you Groypers and Islamists do make for strange bedfellows. I guess it is the "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" mindset, marked by a shared hatred of the Jews.
The problem is, one would have to completely ignore that fact that the vast majority of terrorism in the world today is committed by Muslims, as well as an ideology that literally calls for the murder of infidels. You think Judaism is bad, try living in a society that institutes Sharia law. You'd be marked for death as a Christian.
It takes a gross misunderstanding of Islam to believe that it is a religion that is at all similar to Christianity. They most definitely do not believe in the Christ of the Holy Bible.
As for Netanyahu, did you interpret something he said to mean he can't live peacefully with Christians? I certainly didn't. Moreover, as pointed out above, it is the Islamists that have difficulty coexisting peacefully. Don't believe me, go live in some of the predominantly Muslim countries. Even those with democratic ideals, like Turkey, regularly discriminate and abuse Christians. It is the most violent religion in the world, and there's not a close second.
I'd suggest you stop watching Tucker and get some other news sources.
WTH? How is this in any way responsive to my post? Are you on crack?
You really should study the people who you believe are your enemy. They may well in fact be that! But your ignorance is breathtaking for a purportedly educated man. And you are using words that you clearly don't understand.
Without looking it up, do you know who is defined as infidel under sharia? Do you not find it odd that Christians existed for 500+ years under sharia law in the Ottoman caliphate and it isn't until the late 19th century that the genocide starts? Do you know the meaning of the word dhimmi? Do you not find it odd that Catholics and Eastern Orthodox have had an unbroken presence in Gaza and the West Bank despite Palestinian control of those areas and their centuries-old churches were not damaged until Israel's most recent military operations? Do you ever wonder how it is possible that Chaldeans existed in Iraq (just outside of the Arabian peninsula!) for 2000 years after St. Thomas the apostle introduced Christianity to them? Chaldeans even managed to exist under Saddam H., and it isn't until the 2003 invasion of Iraq that the Chaldeans seem to have finally been broken for good in Iraq (the Chaldean diaspora has mostly resettled in the Detroit and San Diego areas--very interesting people, in particular the women, if you ever get a chance to be around them).
Do you not find the existence of Christians in Hezbollah-controlled/influenced Lebanon to be hard to square with your assertions? Israel seems to be preparing to go into Lebanon. Will be very interesting to watch what happens to those Christians after Israel takes over southern Lebanon.
These facts just doesn't square with your ignorant view of the world. Yes, much terrorism has been committed by Islamic extremists, but there is tons of history that is worth understanding if you have even the slightest bit of curiosity.
I know, you need the world broken down into good guys and bad guys and there is no room for critical thought, but come on. At least try to be an informed person and understand the people you think you are in a civilizational battle with. I've barely scratched the surface here.
To be absolutely clear since you seem to want to argue in bad faith, I am not suggesting that I want to live under sharia law. I don't want to pay the jizya tax. I sure as heck do not want my Christian faith relegated to private spaces only, nor do I want to be a second-class citizen under sharia. But your ignorance is just way out there.
I am curious. Can you tell me how many Christians have died or been persecuted for their faith at the hands of Islamists last year?
I know, so let me help you out. According to reports based on data from late 2024 to late 2025 from various organizations that monitor these things, roughly
4,849 to 4,850 Christians were killed for their faith in 2025. Approximately 93% of the recorded deaths (4,491) occurred in sub-Saharan Africa, with the Islamists in Nigeria accounting for the vast majority of these deaths. And the most dangerous place in the world for Christians are all Muslim countries, including Somalia, Yemen, Sudan, and Eritrea.
With respect to Christians who experienced persecution, over 340 million Christians worldwide experience high to extreme levels of discrimination and persecution because of their faith. And the vast majority of those people live in Muslim countries.
Now, let's compare that to Christians who have died or been persecuted for their faith at the hands of followers of Judaism last year. Can you tell me how many have died?
I can. Zero. Zero reported deaths at the hands of Jews. And while there have been a handful of reported attacks by Jewish extremists (less than a dozen), that is about the extent of the reported persecution.
Now, can you tell me what religious group has been the largest perpetrator of terrorism the last 40 years? Again, I got ya. Since 1979, Islamist groups carried out roughly 18.8% of global attacks (19792019), and around 39% of total deaths from terrorism. This of course does not include state-sponsored terrorism, like that perpetrated by Iran. If we add that to the mix, the number is even higher.
Jewish groups responsible for terrorism? The number is so negligible it doesn't even register as a fraction of a percentage.
Look, I get it. You and the Muslims have a common enemy. But trying to white wash their long history of violence against Christians isn't an argument that has much credibility, and make you look like an imbecile. When 28% of Muslims believe apostasy (leaving Islam) should be punished by death, it's really difficult to argue that the Muslims are peaceful and want to coexist. There is a reason that the ME and Africa are the most dangerous and violent places in the world today.
When you look at the numbers, trying to argue that it is easier for Christians to coexist with Muslims than Jews is just total dumbassery. I think your Jew hate has caused such brain rot that you've completely lost your marbles. No reasonable person would consider making such arguments.
