What evidence does Todd Starnes have that it was 'Pro-Hamas'?
That you would have to ask Todd Starnes -I only quoted the report.
If you mean the Babylonians then no they did not end the Isrealites. Even the Babylonias acknowledge that the Isrealite Kingdom still existed. They even hosted KIng Jeconiah whose decendents maintained the line and Kingdom right through to Jesus.
What territory.
Or you cannot handle the facts and the same logic applied to your arguements. When people have nothing to say they usually begin to attack the person and not the actual facts. The positions I am talking about are directly related. Its knowing those related facts which we can understand what is really going on and not misinformation. The problem is when people try to restrict things to a narrow view.
Whats ironic is that none of these same protestors are flooding the Capital when it comes to Muslim wars where Muslims are killing Muslims. Tens of thousands of Muslims have been killed by other Muslims. In the case of the current civil war in Syria estimates say over half a million killed including around 30,000 children and has displaced around 20 million people. This impacts the world and creates a refugee crisis let along denying millions of Muslims their rights.
The US government is providing both diplomatic and military support to Israel and has sent billions of dollars of military aid annually for decades to Israel. That's one of the differences between the conflicts you mentioned and Israel's current war in Gaza. Another is the unprecedented bombing campaign that has resulted in a massive loss of innocent lives and the displacement of so many others in such a short period of time. Many people see it as a moral obligation to publicly oppose these things.
The protest mentioned in the article I shared included many Jews.

The US has and still has its fingers in most conflicts in the Middle East. They were involved militarily taking one side over the other and supplying arms in the Syrian, Iranian, Saudi's, Yemen, Turkeys conflicts. Not to mention Iraqi and Afganistan in recent past.
I mean against the Jews, people always protesting against the Jews more than any other nation. I think the Jews are going to protest as they are the ones being erased.
OK is this Jews protesting to stop the war.A large group of protesters, dressed mostly in black and red T-shirts, gathered inside the Capitol shortly after 1 p.m. Wednesday in the first and second floors of the Capitol rotunda and placed a banner on the floor. They are taking part in clapping and chanting.
"As Jews, as elders, as US taxpayers, this is not OK," protester Penny Rosenwasser said. "This is funding genocide."
"Every day that we were on break, people died," protester Meital Yaniv said. "Today is the day that they're back so today is the day we come back to demand a ceasefire."
They claim the Israeli military is committing genocide in Gaza, and want elected officials to stop supporting the Israel-Hamas war, calling attention to the billions of dollars the U.S. sends to support Israel.
The protesters say they are a coalition that includes rabbis and children of Holocaust survivors, Israeli Americans and teachers. The same group protested at Oakland's federal building in mid-November.
Protesters at California State Capitol disrupt Assembly session
The group, which is calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, has disrupted the Assembly's first session to be held in three months.
A number of Jewish organizations across the state were behind the effort, including Jewish Voice for Peace, If Not Now and the International Jewish anti-Zionist network, spokesperson Liv Kunins-Berkowitz told POLITICO.
I did not realise that to garner humanitarian support depends on who you are aligned with politically. The reason the US aligns with Isreal is because they both share in the freedoms we have come to know in the West and nations opposing Isreal are a threat to those freedoms.
How much of the US economy is based on armaments and war?
Jews are not a nation; Israel is. The nation of Israel has people, citizens, who are not Jewish, although not a lot and fewer and fewer every day. It is not the Jews who are being erased in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank.
Not all Zionists are Jews nor are all Jews Zionists.
I say Jews because I think fundementally this is a religious war when it comes to radical Islam. When the Jews were slaughtered by Hitler it wasn't the Isrealis but referred to as the Jews. Whern they were dispersed throughout the world it was about allowing the Jews to return home. When they talk about the land they refer to Jerusalem, the Holy cites like the Temple Mount occupied by the Muslims. It is Jews being singled out and attacked throughout the world at present due to anti-semetism.How much of the US economy is based on armaments and war?

Western coverage of Gaza: A textbook case of coloniser’s journalism
Israel’s war on Gaza has exposed the true nature and purpose of Western media.www.aljazeera.com
This dehumanising use of language has been most visible in the counting of deaths. In early November, The Times of London noted, “Israelis marked a month since Hamas killed 1,400 people and kidnapped 240, starting a war in which 10,300 Palestinians are said to have died”. In Western news, Israelis die in active voice – Hamas “killed” or “murdered” them – while Palestinians die passively. They “dehydrate to death as clean water runs out” as the Guardian once put it, as if this is not a wilful crime against humanity but a random act of God.According to the propaganda machine of the West, Israel has the right to destroy Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, Iran, Lebanon, Yemen and any other country in the region to keep Israelis safe. It can kill nearly every Muslim, Jews asking for a ceasefire, UN staff and physicians in Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres, or MSF), journalists, ambulance drivers and even babies in the process of targeting Hamas. Yet few news organisations ever discuss what it means for Israel and the world, if the only way it can feel secure is by raining death and misery on millions of people.
That's because modern Israel didn't exist until after WWII.
So apart from the wars, the west has been passive?
Sorry I don't buy the ole we're talking Israel not the Jews schtick. The JEWS have been under attack for ever. Jews in America that aren't even Israeli. Jews all over the world who aren't Israelis.How much of the US economy is based on armaments and war?

That may be the modern day version of Isreal but Isreal has been around since about 1300 BCE. The name Isreal derives from the name given to Jacob (also known as Isreal) from which the 12 tribes stems from. Isreal was referred to as a nation by the Egyptians around 1250 BCE on the Merneptah Stele. So its been around longer than what modern day definitions have made it.
Well look what the war was suppose to achieve, to get rid of dictators and establish democracy and freedom. They failed miserably on those fronts. They just made matters worse.
The existence of Isreal as a nation in the land may have ceased but the symbolic Isreal still existed. There were many who remained in Isreal or fled to Judah and they still maintain ties with Jerusalem and the Temple and Jewish heritage. Those Jews exciled began to come back when the Assyrians were defeated so there was around a 200 year period where the Jews were disconnected from their land in the context of nearly 3 and a half thousand years.
No its completely different. There is no history of Palestine as a people and nation like the Isrealis in the land. The Isrealis gave the Palestinians land to setup a state and they completely destroyed it with radicalism.
I agree so long as the true facts are used and not the political narrative some especially Palestinians claim by saying there is not history of the Jews in the land and its proporganda.
Symbolic Israel. Sure, an idea. A concept.
No, it was very much the creation of something more than an idea.
