    Iran has been waging a war against the “Little Satan” Israel for decades. October 7 was Israel’s Pearl Harbor, in which Iran decided to move to a much greater extreme. Iran has been waging a war against the “Great Satan” America for decades also. On October 23, 1983, I preached the gospel to the Marines in Beirut, giving them the Christmas gift of a small Bible.

    A young soldier, 18, from Worcester, Massachusetts, asked me if I could send a message to his mom. So, I had my camera crew tape it. He said, “Dear Mom, I know you’ve been praying for me. I won’t be coming home for Christmas. But I have a Christmas gift for you. I’ve just accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. Merry Christmas, Mom.”

    Is this article real? Did actual human beings write it about actual events? Please tell me evangelical Christians aren’t really this burdened by their superiority?

      In every Israeli Air Force barracks, there is a picture they have to pass before leaving. The picture is a picture of Auschwitz and the railroad tracks with the words, “We, the Israeli Air Force pilots, fly in the skies over the camp of atrocities. But we’ve risen from the ashes of the millions of victims, and we carry their silent cry. We salute their courage and pledge to serve as the defenders of the Jewish people and the State of Israel.”

      Like if I did not know any better I would post this to r/thathappened

        I bet it’s just a propaganda poster of Auschwitz and says something the equivalent of “This is what happens if we fail!”. Most importantly is that that no one really pays attention to it.
