Benjamin Netenyahu, 2000 - "It is true that the Roman destruction of Jerusalem in 70
C.E. was a highly important factor in the ultimate decline of Jewish power and
presence in Palestine." (A Durable Peace: Israel and Its Place Among the Nations)
Will Durant - "the Jewish rebellion was caused by Roman actions which are also historically
uncertain. Again, hundreds of thousands of Jews were slaughtered and so many
sold into captivity that their price fell to that of a horse (Caesar and Christ, p. 548). |
Dante Alighieri, AD1310
"In that age when the worthy Titus, with help
from the Highest King, avenged the wounds from which the blood that Judas
sold had flowed, I have sufficient fame beyond" (Purgatory,
21:82-84) "Hear now, and wonder at, what next I tell. After with Titus
it was sent to wreak Vengeance for vengeance of the ancient sin. (Paradise,
6:92, 1321) "It should no longer now seem difficult To thee, when it

Son." (The Templars: The Dramatic History of the Knights Templar, the Most Powerful Military Order of the Crusades, p. 20) |
