Description
More than 100 rockets fired from the Gaza Strip hit Israel this past week.
Here are some reasons:
1. It's a commandment
"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee."
Psalm 122:6
2. Has promise
"And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed."
Genesis 12:3
3. Gratitude
"It is through the Jews that men are saved from the punishment of their sins. "
John 4:22
4. We are grafted in among them
"And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree"
Romans 11:17
UPDATE
----------------------------
It's really sad that the media is against Israel, I've made this design on June 25, that day I found out on the internet that Gaza was throwing rockets to Israel, the last 5 or 6 days it started the defense from the israeli part and the news is just saying, the people from Gaza is being killed, but they don't say that Israel put it's target on militar places (the problem is that Gaza has it's rockets even on the roofs of the houses.
Gaza is aiming to the israeli civilians while Israel is aiming to the Gaza rockets
Israel has killed 15,242 Palestinians since October 7. About 40% are children - https://www.businessinsider.com/israel-gaza-hamas-civilian-casualties-children-deaths-airstrikes-palestinian-2023-10
The Israeli military boasts they've killed even more than that, though - over 20,000 (https://www.ynet.co.il/blogs/gazawar29eve - source is in Hebrew, of course, but here's another media source referencing it - https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20231105-israel-security-source-claim-20000-killed-in-gaza/ )
Other damage, though some of this data is now dated - all from the last couple months -
Over half of Gaza’s homes - 278,000 residential units have been destroyed or damaged
311 educational facilities damaged
26 out of 35 hospitals not functioning
87 ambulances damaged
167 places of worship damaged
And here are deaths inflicted by Israel against Palestinians over the course of the last 15 years, minus these last 2 months - https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties - thousands more.
At every turn, Israel has killed far, far disproportionate numbers of people. It needs to stop.
Promoting hate and death is wrong.
