judaism devouring Christianity Islam

The ashes of John Henry Patterson, a British Christian Zionist hailed as the “godfather” of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, were reburied in a ceremony near Netanya.

Born in 1867, Lt. Col. Patterson came to Palestine during World War I after serving in east Africa as a colonial officer, where he became famous for killing two giant man-eating lions. Patterson eventually commanded the Jewish Legion, the first Jewish force on the field of battle in the area in nearly two thousand years, in campaigns in Gallipoli and Palestine.

Ze’ev Jabotinsky, a leading figure in Zionism who was also one of Patterson’s fellow soldiers, once said that “in all of Jewish history we have never had a Christian friend as understanding and devoted.”

Netanyahu’s father was close friends with Patterson when the two worked together to advocate for Israeli statehood. Netanyahu’s brother Yonatan, who was killed in Operation Entebbe in Uganda in 1976, was named in Patterson’s honor.

Netanyahu described Patterson as helping to reshape the image of the Jewish people from centuries of wonderers without a homeland to warriors.

“[Patterson] had absolute confidence that the Jews would make remarkable soldiers – not adequate soldiers, but remarkable soldiers. And I think he had a lot to do with that. He began the reconstitution of the ability of the Jews to defend ourselves,” Netanyahu said, the Independent reported.

Alan Patterson, grandson of John Henry Patterson, said that it was one of his grandfather’s dying wishes to be buried alongside his fellow soldiers. Patterson’s ashes, along with his wife Frances, had been interned in California, where he lived when he passed away in 1947. They will now be interred in Moshav Avihayil, which was founded by Jewish Legion veterans in 1921.

  1. Patterson is a very well known Jewish name. There are a huge number of sleepers and agents like these, many already in positions of authority and influence.

  2. John Henry Patterson and his wife Frances lived for a number of years in La Jolla, California, a very affluent community on the coast between L.A. and San Diego.

    When Patterson’s wife died, Patterson spent his final years at the home of a friend in Bel Air, California, which is an extremely affluent part of Los Angeles.

    Patterson died in 1947, and was cremated. His ashes were put into a slot at the Angeles Rosedale Cemetery in a part of L.A. that today is poor and run down.
