Ultra-leftist Israeli journalist and political figure Yossi Sarid was invited several months ago by the Norwegian foreign ministry to attend and address a conference on religious and cultural tolerance in Bali, Indonesia. However, when the Indonesian co-sponsors and national hosts discovered that an Israeli was on the guest list, Sarid was promptly uninvited.
Kind of defeats the purpose of a conference on tolerance when the invitation stage is marred by intolerance.
(Side note: It is also telling that the weak Norwegian - ie. European - response was not to demand that Indonesia soften its stance, but rather to offer Sarid Norwegian citizenship in order to bypass the boycott. Europe’s fear of and capitulation to Islam is by no means confined to the continent.)

This, of course, like anything remotely related to the truth will not go reported by the mainstream media, because God forbid that they should show any journalistic integrity and report the Arab-Israeli conflict (or Islam vs. the world) factually and truthfully.

Poor Sarid. Now he will miss out on such a great conference.

Certainly, the truth does not go well with ones coffee and toast.

It must be the coffee. Some people get addicted to that stuff and just can’t leave it alone.

The disposition of the flesh is enmity to God, for it is not subject to the law of God, for neither is it able. Now those who are in flesh are not able to please God. Yet you are not in flesh, but in spirit, if so be that God’s spirit is making home in you. Now if anyone has not Christ’s spirit, this one is not His. Romans 8:6-9
Now this truth goes well with one’s herbal tea, but I doubt if the tolerance conference or the mainstream media will be covering this either.

Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. I Timothy 1:15
Now that could go well with Russian vodka.
I am entreating, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, pleadings, and thanksgiving be made for all mankind, for kings, and all those being in a superior station, that we may be leading a mild and quiet life in all devoutness and gravity, for this is ideal and welcome in the sight of our Saviour, God, Who is willing that all mankind be saved and be coming into a realization of the truth. For there is one God, and one Mediator of God and mankind, a Man, Christ Jesus, Who is giving Himself a corresponding Ransom for all (the testimony in its own eras).
