​Israel sends 'bugged boots' to Terrorist Hamas Group in Gaza
2-18-19, Daily Mail -- Hamas have claimed Israel are sending bugged shoes to spy on people in a war-torn part of the country. The militant Islamic terror group, Hamas took control of the major goods crossing from the Palestinian Authority on Sunday, according to the Gaza strip's interior ministry. Hamas seized the Gaza Strip in 2007 in a near civil war with Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas' Fatah party.Tensions have risen again since March as Palestinians have gathered at least weekly along the border with Israel for often-violent protests, calling for an end to Israel's blockade of the territory.

Hamas Charter Calls for the Annihilation of the Jewish State of Israel
​7-25-14, The Islamic terror group in Gaza Israel, Hamas officials are notorious for making incendiary statements and anti-Semitic comments. In fact, their charter calls for the destruction of the Jewish state and the murder of Jews around the world.

Its immediate goal is clear: to terrorize Jewish Israelis, hoping they will force Israel to accede to the terrorist organization's demands. In a speech on Wednesday, translated by the IPT, Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal spewed typical Hamas propaganda against Israel. Meshaal called on the various terrorist factions to join forces to strike Israeli civilian targets Meshaal said:

"The world only respects force … The Resistance prepared, built, smuggled and lay awake for its people, and was not sleeping. All the sons of Hamas, Fatah, Islamic Jihad and the Popular [Front] were born to resist the occupier. The Resistance nonetheless did not kill settlers rather it killed soldiers, officers and leaders of the occupation army and its elites. Our victims are civilians and their dead are soldiers and military."

The Israeli civilian casualty rate is relatively low because of Israel's Iron Dome Missile Defense system, which shoots down approximately 85 percent of Hamas' rockets targeted. By virtue of its guerrilla tactics, Hamas utilizes its civilians as human shields. Meshaal said: "Hamas leadership and its people and their blood are a sacrifice for the people of Gaza, Jerusalem, the [West] Bank and 1948.”

Clearly, lifting the "siege" on Gaza would not end the conflict since the terrorist organization perceives that all of Israel is occupied territory and will not relinquish its terrorist tactics until the Jewish state is destroyed. Investigative Project more here

​Netanyahu lands in Warsaw for summit
2-13-19, The Jerusalem Post -- Israel's PM Netanyahu to take part in a US-Polish sponsored conference. He said the summit will unite many countries in the world -- and in the region -- against Iranian aggression and its desire to conquer the Mideast and destroy Israel. The two-day conference in Warsaw will focus largely on what US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo referred to last month as Iran’s “destabilizing influence” in the region. He said: "This is a very important international conference in Warsaw. The focus is Iran. This brings together Israel, the US, and countries in and beyond the region."
Prime Minister Netanyahu met with Oman's foreign minister, Yousef bin Alawi ahead of the opening of a 60-nation conference on Middle Eastern regional stability in Warsaw. Alawi told Netanyahu, "There's a new era in the Middle East; the People in the Middle East have suffered a lot by sticking to the past. Now we are saying this is a new era for the future and for the prosperity of every nation.”

Netanyahu said: "I'm happy to meet you again. The courageous decision of Sultan Kabos to invite me to visit Oman brings about a change in the world. It paves the way for many others to do what you said -- not to be stuck in the past but to advance into the future." More here

​Why Turkey Should Be Expelled From NATO (Reason #877)

2-10-19, Let’s recapitulate:

1. Turkey's President Tayyip Recep Erdogan has repeatedly attacked the Kurds in Syria, who have been the USA's closest ally against ISIS.
2. He has carried on a campaign of vilification against the United States for refusing to hand over Fethulleh Gulen to Erdogan’s “justice.”
3. He has drawn closer to Putin and to Russia, and gone ahead with his pledge to buy a Russian S-400 surface-to-air missile defense system, which U.S. and NATO officials say would lead to security breaches (for the Russians could test how the S-400 performed against NATO missiles supplied by Turkey,  and tweak their defense system accordingly).
4. He kept the American pastor Andrew Brunson imprisoned for two years, after a Turkish court absurdly convicted Brunson, the pastor of the Izmir Resurrection Church, a tiny congregation with 25 members — and gave him a 20-year prison sentence on assorted trumped-up charges, including that of being a C.I.A. spy and a member of the Kurdish “terrorist” group, the PKK, and worst of all, of being a “Gulenist” operative. Brunson was finally freed, most begrudgingly, and only after terrific American economic pressure (threats of more boycotts and tariffs) on Ankara, Turkey.

Once upon a time, Turkey was indeed “our NATO ally.” That was when the enemy was the Soviet Union, and Turkey was happy to collaborate in efforts to contain the Soviet Union, that was also their hereditary enemy. In the early 1950s, Turkey could and did offer troops for the UN forces in the Korean War, as well as listening posts for NATO to monitor Soviet communications, and use, by the Americans, of Incirlik Air Base.

The creation of an Army of Islam to Destroy the Jewish State of Israel
3-21-18, The idea of creating an “Army of Islam” to destroy Israel was accompanied by an interactive map providing formation of military forces for a joint Muslim attack on Israel. It also provides details on military forces based in various locations and the role they can play to execute their scheme. According to Bloomberg, Turkey's leader Erdogan  stated ‘Too many Turks, misled by the West, have cut the country off from its Ottoman roots.’ “History isn’t just a nation’s past, it’s the compass for its future.”  ...To promote the revival of the Ottoman Empire and his ambition to become the leader of the Muslim world, Erdogan exploits Islam as the common cause around which all Muslim states can rally. [..snip] how many more sinister steps can Erdogan take before the EU and the US recognize that he is a threat against western strategic interests? He must be stopped from blackmailing the West while destroying the country that was envisioned by its founder Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. More here

3-12-18, A report  by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) investigated an article that was published in December 2017 in the Turkish daily Yeni Şafak, a media outlet which is closely affiliated with Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his ruling AKP Party. The article titled, “A Call for Urgent Action.” 

The report revealed that the Turkish president’s call for 57 Islamic nations to join together to form an anti-Israel army that could create the most formidable military force on the planet. One Israeli expert on Islam stated emphatically, “make no mistake; this is war,” and lest the message is missed, he also emphasized that this call for jihad includes a direct threat against the US.

1-28-19,  Iranian Brigadier General Hossein Salami, deputy head of the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps threat against the Jewish State of Israel followed an Israeli attack on Iranian targets in Syria last week in a series of assaults targeting Tehran’s presence in Syria where it supports President Bashar al-Assad’s government. Salami said:“We announce that if Israel takes any action to wage a war against us, it will definitely lead to its own elimination and the freeing of occupied (Palestinian) territories.”

Jeremiah 4:10, 6:14, 8:11-12 [1]
 
1-26-19, * -- Jews do not believe that Jesus was the Messiah; but what many do not understand is that, although Jesus first came as a suffering servant to take the penalty of sins and redeem mankind (Isaiah 53: 1-12); He is poised to return and literally fulfill His role as the Meshiach and establish His rule and reign for 1,000 years. (Revelation 19:11-16)
 
Currently in Israel there are interesting events happening in the Haredi ultra orthodox Jewish community.  A young Torah scholar from outside Israel asked Rabbi Kanievsky if he should apply for Israeli citizenship in order to vote for the Haredi party in the upcoming April 9, 2020 Israeli elections. His response: “There is no need the Messiah will already be here before the elections.” [See Jeremiah 23:5]
 
We know that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and only when HE returns will there be peace (Jeremiah 14:13); so if another comes he will be added to the list of false Messiahs (Matthew 24:24). [Unless the rabbi inadvertently spoke of the Lord Jesus’ second coming!]

According to the Jerusalem Post [2] the highly anticipated Trump peace plan is scheduled to be released shortly after the April 9, 2020 Jewish state election. Reportedly the agreement will include total US support:

• for Israel with anything concerning the Iranian nuclear weapons program
• for Israel in the international forum should Israel decide to act directly against Iran
• and substantial military aid, including advanced weaponry, should a conflict break out with Syria or Iran, even if the conflict is initiated by Israel

Apparently President Trump’s peace plan will include:

• the dividing of Jerusalem
• possibly a sovereign state for the Muslims aka “Palestinians” with their capitol in East Jerusalem

 How will this Middle East peace be achieved?

• A new “prince” will have come into power
• In whose name will he come?
• Will he be the peacemaker or power broker spoken of by the prophet as described in Daniel 9:27

Although we do not know the exact details of the upcoming peace plan, if the reports are accurate, it will strengthen some of Israel’s enemies. Israel and Iran are inching closer and closer to an all out war. Remember; it's a false messiah the Jewish rabbis claim will “save” Israel and bring peace to the world.

​This peace initiative is another sign of major events that we are in the end times. If you don't already know Jesus; get to know the real Messiah…now! John 14:9

1-25-19, Front Page -- Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secured another diplomatic victory for Israel with the dramatic announcement that Chad and the Jewish State would be re-establishing diplomatic relations. The Muslim majority nation had severed ties in 1972 following intense pressure from Libya, its menacing neighbor to the north, which at the time was led by the dictator, Col. Muammar Qaddafi. However, following a visit by Chad’s President Idriss Déby to Jerusalem and a reciprocating visit by PM Netanyahu to N’Djamena, forty-seven years of animosity instantly vanished. Israel’s historic diplomatic achievement occurred despite intense efforts by the Palestinian Authority and Iran to torpedo the initiative, and reflects a rise in Israel’s standing on the African continent and in the Muslim world at large. Indeed, Israel has much to offer in terms of military expertise, cyber technology, water technology and agricultural technology, commodities that are in high demand in parched, battle-plagued Africa. [..snip] This was a good week for Israel both militarily and politically. Israel continues to charter inroads on the African continent while at the same time, its military stands ready to check aggression emanating from nefarious elements to the north, south and east.

12-4-18, Since 1995 when Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza, the Muslims [aka Palestinians] have launched tens of thousands of rockets, mortars, incendiary kites and other forms of terror on the Jewish state. A naval blockade has been maintained by Israel attempting to prevent additional heavy armaments from arriving in the Gaza strip; in 2014 Iranian ships have been intercepted with such cargo [CNN here]. Sophisticated underground tunnels have been excavated where the millions of humanitarian aid dollars were used facilitating - NOT HUMANITARIAN AID - but the entrance of more weapons.

The New York Times Incentivizes Hamas Violence
1-4-19, Gatestone -- While Hamas is happy to boast openly about its fighters tearing at the border fences in Gaza and hiding behind civilians to evade Israeli soldiers—the New York Times makes no mention of this. Israeli soldiers are portrayed as faceless killing machines, without a single reference to the flying of incendiary fire kites, terror tunnels, rockets or cross border explosive devices utilized by the terrorists aka Palestinians.

• Israeli civilians are not occupiers or usurpers; the Jewish people have lived in Israel proper not in occupied or disputed territory. This area was built from scratch by Israelis on barren desert land and the Israelis have a right to be protected.
  
• The Times's absurd conclusion that Israeli shooters may have committed a "war crimes," ignores the law of war crimes. 
  

​How would other nations respond to such threats? Certainly not by treating these dangerous mobs as peaceful protestors merely exercising their freedom of speech and assembly.

​U.N. Aid Cut to Muslims in Gaza aka Palestinians
Dec 19, 2018 - GAZA, ISRAEL - The USA cut $200 million in aid to the Muslims in Gaza and Judea & Samaria [aka the West Bank]. Officials said humanitarian programs for Palestinians are seeking more money than requested -- last year they sought $539 million. Since the USA cut funding to the terrorists in Gaza international contributions continue or increase:

• Germany will increase it's 81 million euros [$94 million] in aid for UNWRA this year and will increase its contribution.
• France from 2014 to 2016 provided €500,000 via the Social Fund for Development (FSD) to Palestinian and Israeli NGOs
• UK in Sept 2018 said it would be giving an additional $9 million

In 2016  Wall Street Journal reported that although the Palestinians are more than twice as wealthy on average than eight other needy Middle Eastern nations, they receive more than 11 times as much foreign aid per person. Palestinians received $793 million in international aid. This amounts to $176/person, by far the highest per capita assistance in the world. The Democratic Republic of Congo's 79 million people have a per capita GDP of $700, yet they receive only $5.70 in aid per person. The US had supplied nearly 30 percent of the total UNRWA budget, which was supposed to provide health care, education and social services to the Muslim citizens in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon - however majority of it went to tunnels and weapons to attack the Jewish state of Israel. Disgusting.

Genesis 1:14; Numbers 24:5,9

1-6-19,  In God's word we read that He created the heavenly bodies to serve -among other things - “as signs;” Genesis 1:14. In 2014 and 2015, the world witnessed four consecutive total eclipses of the moon, known as a tetrad. On July 27/28, 2018 a celestial double feature unlike anything seen in decades: Mars made its closest approach to Earth in 15 years—just as the full moon blushes red in the longest “blood moon” eclipse of the century happened. The eclipse this month, Jan 20/21, 2019 occurs on the same date of President Trump’s inauguration January 20, 2017.

Pastor Mark Biltz, discovered that such events historically have been accompanied by significant developments for the Jewish nation of Israel – the United States declaring Jerusalem the capitol of the Jewish state and moving its embassy to the capitol was pretty significant!

The the next lunar eclipse is called a “super blood wolf moon eclipse” because it will be a total lunar eclipse for parts of North America at a time when the full moon is at the closet point of its orbit to the Earth.

In Zechariah 1:14 we read that the LORD is very jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a great jealousy and is displeased with the nations who curse the Jewish nation. More here and here

​United Nations condemns excessive Israeli force against Palestinians | More here
Jun 13, 2018 - UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. General Assembly condemned Israel again for excessive use of force in her retaliation against Islamic Palestinian attacks on the Jewish State ...

1-9-19, Canada Free Press -- The United Nations group United Nations Relief and Works Agency [aka UNWRA] is an anti-Semitic obscenity because it perpetuates the Islamic Palestinian conflict against the Jewish State of Israel. It has no intention of reforming itself to operate as other refugee agencies do, to reduce their number of refugees, and to address the fraud of Palestinian refugee status. 

Through UNWRA, the Palestinians have received 25 times more aid per capita than did the whole of Europe to rebuild their shattered countries after World War II and yet, many decades later, Palestinians still use the victimhood card of poverty and statelessness, even though massive funding flows through the hands of the Palestinian Authority and Hamas.


UNWRA is the only UN refugee agency dedicated to a single group of people - the Muslims [aka Palestinians] in Israel

They do not solve the refugee problem. They inflate it; it's an obscenity. Another obscenity is that 40% of the ‘refugee’ recipients are not refugees at all, having been given citizenship in Jordan. Syria, and Lebanon. Yet their numbers still appear in the UNWRA and Palestinian Authority ledgers. A fraud and a political obscenity. Saudi Arabia was the only Muslim country in the top ten international donor countries. All the rest were United States, EU, Japan, and European nations. Apart from the Saudis, the Islamic world nowhere to be seen, despite their pro-Palestinian rhetoric. ​More here

1-3-19, The US has been holding up a $500 million Israel deal to sell twelve old American built Israeli F-16s to Croatia. Reportedly the USA objects that Israel upgraded the old  planes with advanced electronic systems manufactured by Israel to persuade the Croats to purchase them. The US demands that Israel remove the electronic upgrades.

Prime Minister Netanyahu said, "For reasons we don't fully understand, the Americans hardened their conditions and, apparently, we misread their position on the deal. Practically, the F-16 deal with Croatia is dead and we don't think it is possible to get an agreement that will reconcile the U.S. conditions and the Croatian demands." During a December 2018 meeting with Sec of State Mike Pompeo in Brussels, Pompeo told Netanyahu: "I am in favor, but Defense Secretary Mattis is against it - he is the one who is blocking it."

12-19-18, MSN News· Sudan's President Omar al-Bachir visited Damascus, Syria, in his first visit to Syria since the start of the conflict. Ezekiel 38:5 [Note: Nation of CUSH is modern day Ethiopia.]

Genesis 12:3

​12-17-18, * -- Beginning in 2005, when US president George W. Bush coerced and pressured then Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to remove some 8,500 Israeli Jews from Gaza, US presidents set America on collision course with the one true God. Within a few days of the Gaza evacuation, Katrina [1] hit the US coast. Inside of six months, Sharon suffered a stroke and spent eight years in a coma before passing.

Americans elected the immediate past “president,” who promised “A New Beginning” with Muslims and the banned Muslim Brotherhood became his major foreign policy partner. Today, Israel is under attack and the new US president Donald Trump is trying to fix the problems the previous presidents helped create.

​The moment the Israelis were removed from Israel's Gaza Strip in 2005, the Islamic terror group Hamas moved in. In Gaza elections, the people who claim to be Palestinians elected Hamas over the other Muslim terrorist groups in Israel, PLO and Fatah. This was the true beginning of what five years later in 2010 became known as the Arab Spring where national Arab governments were being replaced with Islamist, Muslim Brotherhood-backed, Islamic terror group, al Qaeda-supported rebellions. Hamas provided a clear model for the Muslim Brotherhood to use the leverage of a sympathetic USA White House [Obama's] to instigate rebellions in Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Libya and Syria. The result was widespread chaos in the Middle East and a resurgence of Islamic terrorism surrounding the Jewish state of Israel.

On Thursday, December 6, 2018 the UN’s Arab members joined together to vote down a US-sponsored resolution condemning Hamas as a terrorist group [here]. The vote was significant because the Trump Administration has been trying to turn the tide of anti-Israel sentiment that was further allowed to entrench during the previous White House. 

​US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley told the General Assembly before the vote that "peace must be built on truth. To its shame, the UN General Assembly has avoided the truth of Hamas terrorism for far too long" and that the assembly could make history by condemning “one of the most obvious and grotesque cases of terrorism in the world." Instead, the vote, which required two-thirds majority to pass, fell short 87 in favor to 57 opposed with 33 abstentions.

Speaking of the end time Day of the Lord, Zechariah 12:9 says: “And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.” 
We can see how prophecy unfolds even by tracking very specific actions since 2005. This is how the nations so easily stand against Israel's capitol of Jerusalem and how the leaders we elect establish our destiny as a nation and a people. Zephaniah 1:14; Joel 2:11; Zechariah 14:1-2, 3-4; Acts 1:17-18, 19-21

Families of terrorists to would be expelled to another area within Judea and Samaria. Co-sponsor MK Moti Yogev said, "An absolute majority of the Israeli public supports the bill of the Jewish Home for the expulsion of the families of terrorists. I call upon the members of the Ministerial Committee for Legislative Affairs, in order to increase deterrence and prevent terrorist attacks, to ratify the law tomorrow." More here

This Islamic terror attack came just a day after a similar drive-by shooting by Palestinian jihadists that wounded seven Israelis, including a pregnant woman causing her baby to deliver prematurely and later died.

12-6-18, U.S. taxpayers pick up appx 25% of the annual United Nations budget. Yet the world body is anti-American despite our global leadership. Why the USA remains a member is a mystery to many. [In February 2018, Pres Trump signs order to reduce US contribution to UN by 40% we now pay 28% appx $2 billion annually here.]

Currently UN members rejected a U.S. proposal to condemn Iran proxy the Islamic terror group in Gaza Israel, Hamas for its serial acts of terrorism, mostly against Israel. If a majority of the UN’s members hate anyone more than the U.S., it’s Israel. The resolution was straightforward condemning Hamas for “repeatedly firing rockets into Israel and for inciting violence..."  

Most nations would agree that targeting civilians with acts of terror is a violation of international law; right? Wrong. The majority of the 192 member nations in the UN are pro Islam and anti Israel. Violence against Jews is apparently A - OKAY with them.

2-20-14, Hassan al-Banna, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, was quoted by the New York Times in 1948 as saying “If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea.”  

​In the book O Jerusalem, by Collins and Lapierre, mentions that the phrase was used by a number of Arab leaders. The first one to say he wanted to “throw the Jews into the sea,” according to the book, was Kamal Irekat (almost certainly the same family as Saeb Erekat,) a police chief in Jerusalem. It says that the Mufti of Jerusalem adopted the phrase. Finally, the book attributes it also to Fawzi el Kaukji, an Arab League field commander.

Oman Jordan’s Minister Responsible for Foreign Affairs, addressing the 14th Middle East Security Summit in Manama, Bahrein, Yousef Bin Alawi declared: 

“How can we involve Israel and prompt it to contribute to the affairs of the region? I am going to say something that I say for the first time. Israel is a state that is present in this region. We all understand this, we know this; the world is also aware of this fact. But despite that, Israel is not being treated by the other countries as it is treating the other countries. Maybe it is time for Israel to be treated the same and it should also bear the same obligations as other countries. Why? Those are really facts. History says that the Torah saw the light in the Middle East, that the prophets of Israel were born in the Middle East, and that the Jews also used to live in this area of the world.” More here​

One hundred one years ago, the British Government recognized the land of the Jews they called 'Palestine'. November 2, 1917 letter from Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Lord Rothschild, a leader of the British Jewish community:

"Dear Lord Rothschild,
I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty's Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet
His Majesty's Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country. I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.
​
Yours,
Arthur James Balfour"
​__________

Subsequently Lord Balfour also wrote:
"Zionism… is rooted in age-long traditions, in present needs, in future hopes, of far profounder import than the desires and prejudices of the 700,000 Arabs [aka Muslims] who now inhabit that ancient land".

In the Balfour Declaration there are three types of rights mentioned:

1. civil rights
2. religious rights
3. political status.

The Arabs [Muslims] would enjoy full civil rights – rights to property, life and pursuit of happiness – as well as religious rights, without having to pay any price for that – something basically non-existent in Islam; the 1917 Arabs had none; they were subjects of the Turkish Empire. In the Holy Land that was just a backwater province or sub-province in the various Islamic empires over the centuries since the Islamic invasions in the 7th century.

The main significance of the Balfour Declaration pertains to those who made the declaration and to the League of Nations who adopted the Balfour Declaration as international law. 

Currently in Israel Muslims [Arabs] are probably the only Arabs in the Middle East to enjoy full civil and religious rights, including freedom to speak against the state of Israel – something almost non-existent in the Middle East. In recent surveys majority of Arabs in Israel identify themselves as Israelis, whether it be as Israeli Arabs, Israeli Muslims, or just plain Israelis.

Happy Anniversary and raise a glass in honorable memory of Arthur Balfour! ​Source 

10-25-18, IsraelNatlNews -- The Jewish state of Israel's Education Minister Naftali Bennett calls for the government to ramp up demolitions of terrorist's homes. Home demolitions are punishments for the terrorists who brutally murder innocent Israelis and others, but this is mainly a deterrence for future terrorists. Bennett said, "it's a disgrace that 102 homes belonging to terrorists have not yet been destroyed and that the families of terrorists receive an allowance is a disgrace." He was referring to the monthly payouts the Palestinian Authority gives to the families of terrorists [here] who have killed Israelis. 

The policy is meant to have a psychological effect for a would-be attacker whose family would be left homeless, some suggest house demolitions are also designed to offset the economic benefits of committing an attack. 

House demolitions date back to a 1945 British Mandate emergency regulation in pre-state Palestine that allowed the British military to confiscate and destroy any home used to discharge a weapon, or any home used by a person who violated military law. More here
