One more reason to despise the memory of Billy Graham

[Cyborg Girl]

He was not just an antisemite but a full on Hitler apologist.

Also this part:

The remarks about the “stranglehold” of Jews in pre-Nazi Germany in the formerly-censored portion are now seen to set-up to Graham’s warning that the contemporary “stranglehold” of Jewish influence “has got to be broken.”

Nixon: You believe that?
Graham: Yes, sir.
Nixon: I can’t ever say it. But I believe it.
Graham: But if you’ve been elected a second time, you might be able to do something...

Horrifying to think how close we might have come there to another genocide.

I've always found it strange how many evangelicals love Israel while disliking Jewish people. Talk about cognitive dissonance.

If you ask me, they simply want control of what is now Israel because it was the birthplace of Christianity. The Israel is a jewish state is irrelevant to them (for now).

Yes- I was always under the impression that it's because in the Bible the Apocalypse can't come about until the Jews are back in Israel. So they don't mind Jewish people as long as they plan to go back there.
