Anti-Christian vandals attack Israeli monastery

The entrance door to a century-old monastery near Jerusalem was burned away and anti-Christian graffiti was sprayed on the walls Tuesday, in what Israeli police said appeared to be a nationalistic attack.

The phrase "Jesus is a monkey" was painted on the walls of Latrun Monastery in large orange letters, as well as the words "Migron" and "Maoz Esther," referring to two illegal Israeli settler outposts in the West Bank.

Families were evacuated from the outposts over the weekend by Israeli government forces.

The Rev. Louis Wahbeh, of the 19th century monastery, told CNN that he was shocked that anyone would plan and carry out such an attack.

"This is a direct insult to our belief," he said. "We can't understand how such people can get to this low level of not respecting others, have no ethical background and don't have any human values."

  There is only one thing that can possibly stop this same horror is that, JESUS will come quickly, I believe HE will come soon, and HE will take HIS people off of the earth before it comes about.
  
  I Thes. 4: 14-18
  14. For if we believe that JESUS died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in JESUS will GOD bring with HIM.
  15. For this we say unto you the WORD OF THE LORD, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the LORD shall not prevent them which are asleep.
  16. For the LORD himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of GOD: and the dead in CHRIST shall rise first:
  17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them int he clouds to meet the LORD in the air: and so shall we ever be with the LORD
  .18..Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

  if actually read the article and look at the picture you will see the the vandalism was written in Hebrew not Arabic and contains two shut down illegal Jewish settlements in the "West Bank" region of Israel. besides the jihadists would just bomb this monastery than vandalized it. many Christians in the region get acted from both the muslims and jews in this conflict.
