India Takes the Prize

It looks like India may be the one to receive God's blessings. In Genesis 12:3, God says, regarding his chosen people Israel: "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you."

Study: Indians, Americans Most Sympathetic to Israel, Britons and French at the Bottom…

"The number of Indians sympathetic to the Jewish state was actually greater than the number of Americans, granted by only 2 points…


(Ynet)- 'The greatest level of sympathy towards Israel can be found in India, according to international study on behalf of the Foreign Ministry, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Friday.

According to the study, which was unprecedented in scope and was undertaken by an international market research company, 58% of Indian respondents showed sympathy to the Jewish State. The United States came in second, with 56% of American respondents sympathizing with Israel.

The study was undertaken as part of the “Branding Israel” project and aimed at looking into Israel’s international stature at what researchers characterized as the world’s 13 most important countries, including the US, Canada, Britain, France, China, and Russia. A total of 5,215 people took part in the study.

Other countries that showed significant sympathy to Israel included Russia (52%) Mexico (52%) and China (50%). At the bottom of the list, the study ranked Britain (34%) France (27%) and Spain (23%) as the least sympathetic countries towards Israel.'"


America may have come in second, which is indeed good news, but our government does not share our support for the Jewish nation, and since these officials call the shots, America will most likely forfeit the blessing.

Then, we have this little gem coming out of the Arab world, via Israel Matzav:

Just 3% of Arabs empathize with Holocaust victims

"Here's another datapoint from that survey of Arab opinion that the mainstream media would like you to ignore. Just 3% of the Arabs surveyed empathize with Jewish Holocaust victims.


'It asked respondents, "When you watch a movie or a program about the Jewish Holocaust, which of the following is closest to your feelings..."

The most popular response, from 59 percent, was "Resent it as I feel it brings sympathy toward Israel and the Jews at the expense of Palestinians and Arabs."

Another 29 percent said they had "mixed feelings.

Rounding out the bottom, a mere three percent of Arabs say they "Empathize with the Jews who suffered under the Nazis."'"
