Every offer presented by Israel to date has prevented the creation of a sovereign Palestinian state. A state is not sovereign if another country puts restrictions on or has some level of control over its resources, airspace, borders, movement of its people, and/or security, which Israel has...

None of those offers gave the Palestinians a fully independent, sovereign state. It seems you have been misled into believing that Palestine has been offered a soverign state in the past. Every offer to the Palestinians has included restrictions on their resources, airspace, borders, movements...

Yes, the teacher asked Jesus what the greatest commandment was, as there were disagreements about this among the Jews, and Jesus gave him an answer quoting from the Torah. The commandments Jesus quoted from the Torah were already known to the Jews and, of course, applied to all of Israel. Are...

Isn't it possible Jesus was saying that to a specific group of people at a specific time for a specific reason? Looking at what comes before that verse and after it, I believe he was. Jesus summoned His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal...

Rockets Fired From Rafah at Greater Tel Aviv Area for First Time in Months Numerous rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards central Israel, the first rocket barrage directed at the area in months. A massive barrage of rockets targeted Tel Aviv and central Israel for the first time in...

Israel has never given the Palestinians an opportunity to have a sovereign state. How can they build one if they Israel doesn't allow them to have one?

It's because the United States and other western governments aren't providing diplomatic and military support to Islamic terrorists and isn't sending them billions of dollars in military aid.

While wartime death tolls will never be exact, experts say that even a conservative reading of the casualty figures reported from Gaza shows that the pace of death during Israel’s campaign has few precedents in this century. People are being killed in Gaza more quickly than in even the...

Terrorism becomes acceptable to people when they are oppressed and marginalized. Address those issues, and the support for terrorism will come to an end.

Actually the opposite would take place. The failure to recognize a Palestinian state is one of the top reasons Hamas was able to come into power to begin with. Recognizing the state of Palestine by the international community, including the United States and Israel, will give the Palestinian...

Today this is surely the most stroked and caressed stone in the entire world. All day long people stoop to touch it, kiss it, or lovingly wipe handkerchiefs across it in hopes of collecting a trace of its original essence...

Then this would include Palestinian Christians. They have maintained a continuous presence in Palestine since the first century, and many of the Christians in the first century would have been Jews and Israelites who converted to Christianity and would be lineal descendants of Isaac. In...

No.

The Camp David and Taba summits provided the most generous offers to the Palestinians, yet there would be no recognition of statehood; it wouldn't allow the Palestinians to have a military, and they wouldn’t have control over their airspace. Israeli aircraft would be able to patrol and conduct...

What I meant by the Islamic version of the Torah is how it was received, meaning that it was given directly to Moses by God and wasn't a third person account like the written Torah found in the Bible. Islam teaches that the Torah is the divine revelation to the children of Israel that was...

The secret service was informed in advance about the search, so that wasn't going to be an issue. A senior official briefed on Monday's events told ABC News that the Secret Service was notified by the FBI a short time before agents arrived that they would be coming. The Secret Service validated...

Yes, of course. The authorization for law enforcement to use deadly force when carrying out a search warrant is always standard procedure. It doesn't make a difference if the property being searched is owned by a high profile personality or not.

Nope. Standard procedure.

Many Christian apologists and Christian missionaries say this, but you will find very few, if any, Muslims who will make this claim. The few Muslims who may say this will also add that the Christian gospels available today have been altered and are no longer reliable. The Qur'an never mentions...

There's no doubt that the Qur'an contains much of what is written in the gospels and the Torah before them. Muhammad, being a merchant, was heavily influenced by the many Christian and Jewish traders he encountered during his travels and he incorporated much of what is found in Judaism and...
