An Egyptian Raid On The Israeli Embassy

Recently, a young tigress attacked and killed a young male tiger at the San Antonio, Texas zoo. The male tiger was sent from the San Diego zoo to the San Antonio zoo for the purpose of breeding with the young female tiger. It has been stated by the San Antonio zoo officials that the reason for the attack was due to jealousy. The male tiger was friendly with an older female tiger who was beyond the age of reproducing. Since the older female tiger was out of the reach of the young female, it is believed that the young female took out her rage on the male. This probably would not of happened in the wild because there are places to escape. There is somewhere to run. Of course, these things are hard to understand. Nevertheless, animals have their reasons. They have their instincts and choices.

Now, let us get to the title of this blog. Today, some Egyptian protesters attacked the Israeli embassy in Cairo. Why? For the same reason as the attack mentioned above. The attack was due to jealousy. The embassy is where it is. There is no place to hide. There is no place to run. The embassy represents power, success, youthfulness and vigor. The embassy represents a great nation. One of the greatest nations on this planet. Some people just cannot stand the truth. They will attack those that they cannot compete with on other levels. They will act like animals. "Jealousy is the rage of a man." (Prov. 6:34) Three people died and 1000 were injured. For what purpose? Because of hatred? Can a good reason for hating Israel be given? Yes, insanity. And I really don't think it is a very good reason.
