“Jesus Spoke Aramaic”

Prime Minister Netanyahu: Jesus spoke Hebrew.
Pope Francis: Jesus spoke Aramaic.

Jesus spoke Aramaic in everyday speech, but Hebrew to pray, as every Jew has from Moses to today. Pope Francis surely knew this. It is like denying that Roman Catholics use Latin.

This is another way of saying that Jesus wasn’t really Jewish. It is another way of saying that Jews are not indigenous in Israel, or anywhere else on Earth. They are always invaders and colonists.

If Jews are not indigenous in their ancient homeland, and Hebrew is not their native language, then what? If they do not belong anywhere, perhaps we should simply get rid of them and save ourselves trouble. No matter how much that is denied, it is in fact the bottom line.
