Now we can see what SaintBasil was doing on the 4th of July instead of
participating in the local Fireworks neighborhood rituals!
Well Arabs are Semites, so the Palestinians should have claim to the land if being Semitic is what counts.
Think probably the proper name would be Israelites for those Semitic Jews who conquered Caanan.
No, Jews are NOT in any way, Israelites.
Palestinians are in Fact more Semitic (SHEM) than Jews.
It seems St.Basil would have us add an "h" to Semitic, to yield "Shemitic."
No?
Rows and rows of quotes:

In the book of the Apocalypse chapters 2:9 and 3:9, Our Lord makes a reference to those who pretend to be Jews but in reality are imposters.
I have pondered many times who specifically Jesus was speaking of.
According to some, you have then wasted your time, trouble and effort
pondering something that Jesus never said, because the word "Jews" did
not exist until the 17th century, when the 2nd edition of the KJV Bible was
printed. But wait............. They furthermore say "Jews" was a new word
in the 18th century. Maybe it all depends on what you mean by "new."
Was His intention to single out and cast aspersions on those people commonly known as the Khazars, or was he referring to a group of people whose alliance or belief system is entirely different? Those who profess a set of beliefs that are completely inimical to Catholicism (I realize Judaism is so as well and Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ is based on this counterfeit religion) and bent on the total destruction of the Church? After considering the fact that numerous Popes in their encyclicals and other official Church docuмents have referred to Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ as being the "ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan", I've come to the conclusion that it is the freemasons and not the Jєωιѕн people of Khazarian descent is what Our Lord meant.
Face it, there are many wonderful people who identify themselves as Jєωιѕн. Everyone is also well aware that membership in Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ isn't exclusively open to members of Jєωιѕн ancestry but, has many adherents who are of Gentile origin as well. Both are Jews and Gentiles who are freemasons are acting as agents of Satan and that is why I've come the believe what I do.
I found this really interesting article that seems to agree with my long held belief that the "pretend Jews" Jesus was referring to has nothing whatsoever to do with ethnicity or race but rather it is the Freemasons. The Church has repeated[ly] stated this as well and it makes perfect sense when you consider that the god of Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ is really Lucifer.
My only warning is that this particular website promotes condemned seers and apparitions.
However this particular piece is interesting.
You can add this fact of history to your list, based on my testimony, but
you are most welcome to verify it by asking others who have done this:
I went to a local Masonic Lodge, and happened to find one of their "officers"
available to speak with, and I asked him several innocent questions about
Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ. He seemed to be genuinely impressed with my interest, so
he invited me into his humble office at the end of the "vestibule" of the
"temple." He used keys for opening the locked doors. We sat down and
he went into some detail. His first point, which seemed to be extremely
important to him, was to evoke from me my deepest conviction, to let him
know from the very start, whether Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ is in any way based in
Judaism or established by Jews. I watched his manner carefully and tried
to give him the impression that all of this was entirely new to me, that I had
never thought about it before. Nor did I want him to think that I had any
adverse reaction to the proposition itself. I did this for informational reasons
only, and not to tell him a lie or to get any kind of advantage over him.
He then went on to explain that there are tests that members have to
pass to move up from one level of Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ to the next. They're
called "degrees." You can think of that as a certificate of achievement
like an Associate degree, or a Bachelor's degree, or a Master's, or you can
alternatively think of it as tiny lines on a thermometer, for example.
Take your pick.
But from the start, in order to be admitted AT ALL even to the First Degree
of Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ, I (or anyone else for that matter) would have to assert
and promise and perhaps even "swear" that I am in no way an adherent
of the 'false creed' that Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ has any truck with Judaism or Jews,
even if some members of Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ are Jєωιѕн, because the most
precious and dearly held common factor of all the Brothers in the
Brotherhood is, that neither "country, color nor creed" has any bearing on
a man's eligibility to become a Freemason. But even more than that, the
Most Important Dogma, and anyone opposed to which cannot become a
Freemason, is that Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ was NOT established by Jews, NOR are its
principles founded on Jєωιѕн doctrines. For a man who believes any such
thing will become forever blacklisted and utterly ineligible for membership.
Now, if it is that easy to obtain this staunchly held doctrine at your very
first introductory meeting with such a representative of Masonry, it must
be a very important topic for them, one that absolutely does not tolerate
any infraction.
In other words, how intolerant of them!
These, mind you, are the same people who hurl the epithet of
"Intolerant!" at others who do not accept certain PC, or liberal, doctrines.
Just for fun -- here is a picture of my favorite menorah. This is a 9-
branch menorah, while the more traditional ones are 7-branch but I
do not pretend to know what that's all about. The majority of the
"contemporary" or "modern" menorahs have 9 branches. It's from
menorah.com and it is currently available! Their online store lists it
thusly in their
Made In Israel Menorahs section. If anyone can say why there are 11 of
those blue 6-pointed stars in front, and what design the stars are,
I would appreciate your input! (Note, it should say "With Tanks, jets
and
helicopters" in the description below!):
