I'm sure there might be people in the admin. or Pent. who might have had it in mind & thought it might be nice to happen; but I find it unlikely. I'm sure there are the "God-fearing recruits" there too; but no-one is doing that there.Quote:

Who had the list of all the country's they have been tossed from through out history?
Basically, you can just name off random countries, and odds are, jews have been kicked out at some point or another.Quote:

109 countries, going back to 250 AD ... that year Carthage kicked them out - according to that web page.

More resentment means more attacks on troops. More attacks on troops means bigger requests. Scoring bigger requests probably equates to cushy retirement jobs from defense contractors.
I just read a story about mega churches on military bases here in the states in the last few weeks. This is where my viewpoint was coming from.
I am unable to find the story now. This article is from 2009 and still relevant. 26 mil for a chapel on a military base in the states? Gold plated pews?
I know I have read a few stories about the uber-christian big wigs in .mil. Search around for fundamentalists in the pentagon and you will find a few names.
Part of the reason I think Russia and Ukraine are going to come back in a big way - they have kicked out the Jews, don't allow blacks or Mexicans in the country, etc. Might end up with the Chinese horde invading (again), but they survived that once already.Quote:
