If Not for the Russians, We Would Have Been Slaughtered

Syrian Bishop:  Better War-torn Syria Than Rotten Europe

Syrians should not emigrate as they won’t be happy in Europa, said Syrian Catholic Bishop Jano Battah.

Talking to Syriana Analysis (April 12) Battah said that there is a “comfort life” in Europe. But this comes with a price, “The French revolution has marginalized God.“

Battah has lived in Europe for 15 years and knows that Christians in Europe are a minority. In France “the percentage of atheists is higher”.

About Syrian politics he said, that there is no alternative to president Assad, “If you have to choose between Assad and jungle, you choose Assad.”

According to Battah “the real problem is the wrong policies of the United States”. And, “Were it not for Russia, we would have been slaughtered.”

Battah points out that there is no war between Christians and Moslems in Syria.

ISIS “has nothing to do with Islam” but “is a political party” and “has been sent from outside.”

As the link isn’t working, here’s the interview. I found it on a Catholic website (remnantnewspaper.com/web/index.php/headline-news-around-the-world/item/3856-syrian-catholic-bishop-the-french-revolution-has-marginalized-god).

Bishop Battah ain’t nobody’s fool. Europe, like old Babylon, is fallen. So is the Roman Catholic Church. Aside from a few holdouts like those at the Remnant, Bishop Richard Williamson and scattered others, authentic Catholics and Europeans have been routed and should seriously consider emigration or open rebellion. God notwithstanding, secular materialist “culture” and “civilization” is almost certainly Hayek’s “Road to Serfdom”.

Jesus had Jewish parents……Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem, so the Holy Bible says.

Luke 3 gives the lineage of Jesus through Mary. Her ancestor was David through his son Nathan, so she is of the tribe of Judah. Matthew gives the lineage of Joseph and Joseph was a descendant of David through his son Solomon. So he too was of the tribe of Judah. http://www.lavistachurchofchrist.org/LVanswers/2008/08-18c.html

But Jesus Christ, according to the Bible, is the Son of God and therefore not of this world or a member of any tribe. And, in any case, modern Jews are mostly Ashkenazi Jews from Khazaria who converted to Judaism.

Get rid of the guns and the crime rate goes nowhere. Get rid of the NeoCons in our government and wars around the world will become as rare as Flamingos in NYC’s Central Park.
