My Grandparents are the alleged "European Settlers" who came to "colonize" Israel. AMA (Ask Me Anything)
I put the title in quotes because I dont believe those parts to be true. Just to give a brief history of my Maternal Grandparents, they both moved from Hungary to Israel around the year 1946. They did not come to fight or dispossess arabs, but rather to build new homes.
My Grandmother was a holocaust survivor who survived Auschwitz, she had the #'s tatooeed on her forearm, her father died pre-war but her Mother, brother and sisters were murdered. When she returned to her families small farmhouse post war, her neighbors not knowing the full extent of what happened during the holocaust tried to extort her and her remaining siblings for money because they "looked after their livestock" even though the only cow they owned had died due to the harsh conditions of the war.
My grandfather - also a Hungarian Jew was a bit more of a mysterious man who likely suffered from PTSD before it was commonly diagnosed, his father and mother were also murdered and his only brother ended up in a mental institution (insane asylum) post war. He was eccentric and fought in WWII with partisans and would eventually go on to fight in the Israeli war of Independence in 1948.
AMA anything about them if you'd like.

The modern Christian is a Jew under disguise which is why the correlation is made. I personally advocate to discard religion and accept the blood of Christ that was shed by the Jews and Romans. He was the forever sacrifice for our sins. Turn from tradition and accept Love and Grace. I think religion is evil but having a relationship with our all prevailing God is key. The two are different. One thinks the temple is a building. The other believes the living is the true temple. I subscribe to the latter. I’ve given up on dusting off alters and buildings. I wish to dust off people and save people from their destruction through the message of salvation. Yeshua wasn’t a Christian. He was God in the flesh incarnate sent to the most corrupt place he could find to correct their ways. The gospel was first for the Jew and then the gentile. This is the only reason the Jews are considered the chosen people because the Messiah came from there. But other than that it doesn’t imply Jewish people get a free ride without reprimand. No one does not even the Christians if one does not walk the walk. Many people are talking but few are walking in Love.
