Ted Cruz Gets Booed Off Stage At Middle East Christian Event

[Galraedia]

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was booed off the stage at an event hosted by a Christian organization in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday night.

The conservative firebrand delivered the keynote address at an event hosted by In Defense of Christians, an organization that raises awareness of persecuted Christian and minority communities in the Middle East. But the audience turned hostile when Cruz said, "Christians have no greater ally than Israel."

"I will say this: I'm saddened to see that some here, not everyone, are so consumed with hate," he said, as more members in attendance began to boo. "I will say this: If you will not stand with Israel and the Jews, then I will not stand with you. Thank you, and God bless you," he said, before walking off the stage.

According to The Daily Caller, IDC Executive Director Andrew Doran then came on the stage and said, "For the love of God, we're here to talk about Christians and we're here to be united."

1. Ted Cruz is so clueless - it is jaw dropping

He actually thinks Middle Eastern Christians are going to agree with his comments?

2. They do not like you, Teddy Cruz.

They do not like you--thus the boos.

3. He probably thought they were saying...

C-r-r-r-u-u-u-u-u-u-z-e....

4. He likely thought he was talking to Dominionists.

Evidently Dominionists are enthusiastic about Israel taking Palestinian land because that will ensure that Israel has room for all the Jewish people in the world to gather there, which is part of the Dominionist end of days scenario.
