Donald,you said:
<<that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime," Of course they were afflicted during WWII and then returned to the a place of their own. Some day they will be afflicted no more.>>
Who shall we assume are the children of wickedness before 1948? Everyone but Israel? And who is afflicting them now?
What about the rest of the world Donald? Do we act like there has been no one around since Jesus but Jewish folks and those that hate Jewish folks?. There are others that were afflicted also. As a reminder look at a few of the following examples:
In all, 2,300 Americans and an estimated 10,000 Filipinos died on the infamous Bataan Death March.
The V Corps at Omaha, suffering 2,500 casualties, held a precarious one-mile-deep strip of coastline
The entire British Second Army had lost less than 3,000 men
Within 10 minutes of hitting the beach, Company A, 116th Regiment, 29th Infantry Division, suffered 96 percent killed or wounded.
On 17 August 1943 American patrols pushed into Messina, and the campaign reached a successful conclusion. Axis losses in the campaign were around 167,000 killed, wounded, and captured, including some 10,000 German casualties. Allied losses were 31,158.
The Americans suffered some 75,000 casualties in the Battle of the Bulge,
Of course I could go on and on but to sum up:
The figures in the charts below are only estimated. Note that 'N/A' does not represent no casualties, it represents an unknown number of casualties.
Country/ Alignment/ Military/ Civilian Australia/ Allies/ 23,365 /N/A Belgium / Allies/ 12,000/ 76,000 Brazil / Allies /943/ N/A Canada / Allies/ 42,042/ N/A China /Allies/ 1,310,224/ N/A Czechoslavakia/ Allies/ 10,000/ 215,000 Denmark / Allies/ 1,800/ 2,000 France / Allies/ 213,324 /350,000 Great Britain/ Allies/ 264,443/ 92,673 Great Britain (colonies)// Allies/ 6,877/ N/A Greece/ Allies/ 88,300 /325,000 India/ Allies/ 24,338 /N/A Netherlands/ Allies/ 7,900 /200,000 New Zealand/ Allies/ 10,033 /N/A Norway / Allies /3,000/ 7,000 Phillipines /Allies/ 27,000/ 91,000 Poland / Allies /123,178/ 5,675,000 Russia / Allies /11,000,000 /7,000,000 South Africa/ Allies /6,840/ N/A United States /Allies /292,131/ 6,000 Yugoslavia/ Allies/ 305,000/ 1,200,000
TOTAL/ Military /Civilians Allies /13,772,738 /15,239,673
Grand Total 29,012,411 not counting the unknowns. AND this is only the ALLIEDS, I did not count the AXIS power casualties.
This all is just to say that we need to watch what we say.
