La Fidele Posted December 16, 2002 I recently posted an article from the Globe and Mail titled "Zionism doesn't define Jews - it divides us" (http://www.globeandmail.com/servlet/ArticleNews/PEstory/TGAM/20021212/COMATE/Headlines/headdex/headdexComment_temp/2/2/5/)which goes along the lines of opposing the radical groups in Israeli politics that found themselves on Zionism. I understand that some Jews oppose the inhumane tactics of occupying Palestine, after all it's human to empathize. But after reading an article on Islaam.com, "Christian & Jewish Beliefs Regarding The Return Of The Messiah and Plots Against Masjid Al-Aqsa", (http://www.islaam.com/Article.aspx?id=504) I myself am confused. Is Zionism a political ideology all its own, or does it base itself solely on fulfilling Jewish prophecies of the coming of the Messiah? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thinkerman Posted December 17, 2002 Who knows saxiib. I no that as we speak the conintue to carry our 'urgent mentance work' under the Masjid Al-Aqsa claiming that their repairing some old drainage systems. The last i heard is that they hope that some time in the future that the masjiid could collapse on its own wait. well this is the intentions anyway. So i hope that answers your question.

La Fidele Posted December 21, 2002 Thanks for responding, Shujui. I just find it extremely disheartening to see politics motivated by things other than politics! Especially in this case, where Israeli politicians use politics as a scape-goat to achieve some disillusioned end. What is most hurtful is that it is at the direct cost of Islam.
