I’ve given up on trying to explain to secular western Christian’s what is happening in the east. We overthrow all of these secular Muslim run countries and they get taken over by Islamic fundamentalists and turn into a massive humanitarian crisis and become very dangerous for everyone especially Christian’s. Then Israel runs around like a lunatic and the western Christians unquestionably support Israel…. Never mind that the Jews think Jesus was a magician and a charlatan at best. Anyways it’s to early for my ranting, I can go on for a while about thisDamascus was actually a really nice place to live in and a relatively peaceful place with religious freedom for everyone who behaved.
Right up until the CIA and McStain decided we needed that oil pipeline money and started helping and funding the worst monsters on the planet...
Damascus used to be the place to go when the Israelis were doing their every decade turn of bombing Beirut back into rubble on some excuse or other.
Syria like "Palestine" also had a large Christian population who were safe, happy and thriving.
Folks don't understand but actually in foreign policy the USA seems to often be on the side of killing Christians of other skin colours and overthrowing anyone stable and independent, while funding the baddies.
You would have been fine walking around the streets of Damascus back in the day.
Not likely in Saudi Arabia...
It would help a lot of the "righteous good folks" here to actually spend time talking with Christians of other skin colours from around the world and from the middle east and understand their view of our glorious military campaigns on behalf of our chosen stooges.
For that matter talk with Jews who are not Western or Zionists or living in Israel, it's a viewpoint most "pale faced god fearing, righteous types" have never thought about.
