The Christian Nationalist Party expresses our total outrage and condemnation of the countless war crimes of Israel in its genocidal attack upon the Palestinians in the Gaza territory inclusive of its monstrous attack upon the relief mission seeking to provide humanitarian aid to the citizens who are being deliberately starved and murdered by the outright evil government of Israel.
We call for an international investigation of the original Gaza attack by Hamas which was in fact a fabricated ” stand-down/false flag ” by Israel ( which murdered the majority of its own citizens ) to provide an excuse for both their planned genocide of the Palestinian people and numerous other coordinated goals inclusive of stealing $5 billion in oil and gas rights from the Palestinians, building the Ben Gurion canal, and treating the Palestinians as” Amalek ” so as to stimulate the arrival of their ” Messiah.”
We note that the government of our Constitutional Republic has been replaced by a (Z)ionist (O)occupied (G)overnment ( ZOG ) which dictates both our domestic and ( especially ) our foreign policy ( via a sold-out Congress ) and call upon all citizens to resist this Occupying Force so that our capital can once again be Washington, D.C. instead of its current location of Tel Aviv.
We call upon all persons and political parties of good will to join us in this quest to stop the genocidal attack/war on humanity by the government of Israel and to restore our Constitutional Republic from being a colony/slave/poodle of that monstrous country.
Calling for the overthrow of ZOG, the end of our national slavery/occupation, and the end of war crimes and crimes against humanity by Israel,
