The fact that *this* is the thing to make them critical is, uh, something.

If they are criticizing Israel, they are obviously antisemites and need to be investigated by DOJ, have all their funding suspended, their citizenship revoked, and then be deported to Chad.

Don’t f****** p**** foot around it. Call them out for what they are: christofascist nationalists. This whining does nothing.

Israeli settlers and other civilians spitting on Christian tourists is a pretty common thing that I think more evangelicals should be made aware of.

They don't care. If it was them they'd probably get off on it. Israel worship is Prime Directive for American Evangelicals

Can they criticize ICE for killing Americans in the street too? F*** these stupid assholes.

They should criticize Trump. His illegal war is why Palm Sunday was canceled in Jerusalem. That won't get him into "heaven"

Cruz is posturing, per usual. Bro thinks he’s going to be president. Sad.

Tell me if I got this right: Isreal holds the leash. GOP supports Israel because their evangelical constituents want Isreal to keep the lights on for the second coming of their Messiah, and Israeli money flows into the GOP. It doesn’t matter how GOP actually feels about what Isreal does, they run all three branches and have offered American lives as fodder for a mere mercenary contract to support Israeli foreign policy.

But silent on the murder of civilians and paramedics?

That’s a tough situation, especially on a day that’s so important to many people.

C'mon! Netanyahu is beholden to the far right religious extremists in Israel. Everyone who watches that regime knows that. Bibi, like Trump, will do whatever he needs to do to stay in power so he doesn't have to face up to his crimes.

Yep - because that is definitely the worst thing Israel has done in the last, day, month, year!!!

This wasn’t a mistake. They also hate Ted Cruz and Huckabee.

isn't it a safety problem? why are these headlines so sneaky. I don't like most of what Israel does, but I'm not going to criticize them for protecting areas likely to be bombed.

You're so close! What could have possibly caused the area to be likely to be bombed

> isn't it a safety problem? Yes, they also restricted access to the wall for the same reason...

The headline says nothing about why. It simply says they are critical. How did you find sneakiness?

bensquirrel Mar 29, 2026 +1
There's religious minutia in the headlines instead of mentioning the safety issue that was justification. This article is slanted too.
1
Specialist-Clock-914 Mar 29, 2026 +2
The article I saw said the group was practicing within the restrictions’ protocols but was shut down regardless. It was a safety issue, the people were respecting the ordinance and still got shut down.

Getting quotes from Cruz and Huckabee doesn't seem very balanced to me. This whole article stinks.

The article is about them being critical. There seems to be a different topic you want to write your own article on.

What don't you like that Israel does?

I don't have enough years left to type that up.

> The headline says nothing about why Israelis are told to go to shelter minutes before drone or missile hit...there is no shelter at those location so the ceremonies were cancelled...article is sneaky because rabbis were also stopped from going to the wall for the same reason, lack of shelter...

K. Why ask a question you don't want the answer to? The answer is easy to find.

they should form a music duo - Cruz rapping arythmically over Huckabee’s piss-poor bass playing

It amazes me how many people don’t realize that Christians are literally spat on in Israel.

Israel has killed Palestinian American citizens.

All of these MAGAs are going to turn on Israel soon enough. Right wingers love a good scapegoat for their mistakes and guess who is in perfect position to become that scapegoat? Not like we haven't seen this movie before.

Kill thousands of innocent people, starve 2 million people, bomb hospitals. Bomb Mosques kill journalists. Bomb Humanitarian aid workers SILENCE. And now these pieces of shit have something to say. Burn in hell mofos

All religions sites are closed for security reasons like why is this a big deal

It's interesting that they have chosen to criticize them for this.

lingeringneutrophil Mar 29, 2026 +2
The Western Wall is completely empty for the same reason. Netanyahu has published he personally made sure the patriarch and cardinal have access to perform whatever rituals they need; they just can’t have the believers there

Arrest them. They are antisemitic. How dare they criticize izrael
