Israeli soldier on God and the land

    by Genesis: Israel

    Dude really said the government isn't religious, admits he's a bit scared to say it out loud, then pivots straight to God giving the land of Israel to the Jewish people. So religion's whatever until there's land to justify taking, then it's theology time. He even threw in the backup plan about the other 28 Arab countries, then waved the whole thing off as a chat for another day over coffee.

    God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people. All right? You can dismiss it all, but God gave, and the government, I'm a little afraid to say that, because they're not religious. You know, you don't have to be based in modern reality. But I believe God gave the land of Israel to the Jewish people. All right? They just back off and they go to their other 28 Arab countries. Anyway, I feel like we should, this is a discussion for another day. I'd be happy to sit down and have a coffee.
