Actually Hagee put it this way: Eric Yoffie, the leader of Reform Judaism has a "troubling disrespect for the truth."You will remember we wrote a few days ago about Rabbi Yoffie's call for Jews to disassociate themselves from Hagee and his Christians United for Israel group. Yoffie said that Hagee was not a real friend to Israel and rejected a two-state solution and Hagee's attitude toward territorial concessions "would mean disaster for Israel, and would lead to diplomatic isolation, increased violence and the loss of Israel's Jewish majority."
At the time, I thought it interesting and unfortunate that Rabbi Yoffie did not deal with Hagee's end-times views which involves a nuclear war with Iran leading to the battle of Armageddon and the Rapture, all of which will ensure the slaughter of every Jew who has not accepted Jesus as his/her "Lord and Savior."
The wrong Rev. Hagee is a bit miffed at Rabbi Yoffie and claims that Yoffie misrepresented his views. Actually Hagee claims a lot of people misrepresent his views. The trouble is that his views have been noted and recorded for a number of years, so even though he claims he didn't say thus and so, it isn't difficult to point to chapter and verse and show him for the liar he is.
Hagee whined that "Rabbi Yoffie's speech demonstrates not only a lack of respect for me but a troubling lack of respect for the truth."
But why should anyone "respect" Hagee, a demagogue, a charlatan, a biblical terrorist, a man who strives to incite a final, cataclysmic conflagration that would literally destroy the earth?
Yoffie was right, even if he didn't cover all the bases. He could have and should have said a lot more about Hagee and his so-called "love" for the Jews. Rabbi Yoffie should have said Hagee is simply using the Jewish people and the land of Israel to bring about his insane visions derived from so-called biblical prophecies.
Israel needs all the help it can get. Israel does not need help from Hagee!

Goes a long way toward dispelling the greedy Jewish sterotype. What's odd about this is that Hagee see's nothing wrong with a doomsday scenerio.
The Jewish stereotype is frequently shown up every time lists of charitable donations by Jews and Jewish organizations are published. This tiny minority usually leads the lists or is near the top. Hagee can send tourists to Israel, spend money there, contribute to Israeli causes if he wishes. I am sure that if we are all given a few days warning pre Rapture Day, Israel will provide a mountain top for those wanting to be first to be called upstairs.
Incidentally, does one need clean undies on that day or are the ascenders to be completely naked? Is there a weight limit? Can I bring my dogs? I wish I knew more about that wonderful day, but will sit and watch for a few days in the hopes that the really good looking young ladies will get priority and fly by my house, except for my grand children.
