THE PAST WEEK AT A GLANCE WITH THE SPLENDID DEBKA REVIEW.

 

 

Summary of DEBKA Exclusives, December 7, 2012
November 30, 2012 •    Israel greets Palestinian UN action with 3,000 planned Jerusalem, West Bank homes The Netanyahu government has approved 3,000 new apartments for Jerusalem and the West Bank in its first response for the Palestinian application for UN nonmember status which was approved Thursday. Planning will also be expedited for new Israeli housing in the “E1” area linking Jerusalem and Maaleh Adummim, where it will counter the Palestinian construction apace on the northeastern edge of Jerusalem. More projects are in the Israeli pipeline. December 1, 2012 •    Iran threatens to quit NPT if attacked Any attack on Iran's nuclear facilities may prompt its withdrawal from the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Ali Asghar Soltanieh, Iran's ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency, said. Iran may also kick out IAEA inspectors and install its uranium enrichment centrifuges in "more secure" places. Israel's ambassador to the IAEA, Ehud Azoulay: "I believe that they are going to do it anyhow, in the near future…when they make their first nuclear explosion, so I'm not surprised.” •    Mob assault on Gaza-Israel fence ends in one Palestinian death Israeli soldiers facing a Palestinian mob rushing the Gaza border fence Saturday warned them to withdraw. When they kept coming, the soldiers started shooting at their legs. The Palestinians report that a man aged, 21, was killed and six others wounded. •    US criticizes Israeli plan to build 3,000 homes Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Israel’s decision to build 3,000 more hosing units in Jerusalem and the West Bank “set back the cause of a negotiated peace.” The White House earlier described the plan as "counter-productive." Addressing the Saban Forum in Washington, Clinton rejected Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman’s pessimism about the Palestinian Authority’s ability to govern and bring about a lasting peace. "Well, I think that should be tested," she said. •    FM Lieberman: The Palestinians refuse to sign peace Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman: "With settlements, we try not to provoke, but we have the right to define our capital, and settlement construction is part of our security. Settlements aren't an obstacle to peace, the opposite is true…  We need a comprehensive solution with the Palestinians, but it's up to the Palestinians… I saw Olmert's proposal in Annapolis, and Abbas refused to sign it.” Bushehr’s near-explosion caused alarm in Tehran and Moscow DEBKAfile Exclusive Report 01 Dec. Iran’s nuclear reactor at Bushehr was shut down in mid-October for fear of an explosion and 163 fuel rods removed. Saturday Dec. 1, an authoritative Russian nuclear industry source said, “Indicators showed that some small external parts were… in the [Bushehr] reactor vessel….” They were identified as “bolts beneath the fuel cells.” DEBKAfile: Russian experts estimated that a Bushehr explosion had the potential for causing a million Iranian deaths and hundreds of thousands of radiation victims in Iran and across the Persian Gulf emirates.  Our sources report that Monday, Nov. 26, Iranian and Russian engineers reloaded the fuel rods and reactivated the reactor. Tehran for the first time in its twenty-year nuclear program showed concern about the impact of “nuclear accidents” at Iran’s nuclear sites on the population and environment. December 2, 2012 •    Israel holds back cash transfers to Palestinian Authority The Netanyahu government has blocked the monthly transfer of collected taxes to the Palestinian Authority as further punishment for Mahmoud Abbas’s application to the UN for nonmember status which was approved last Thursday. The NIS.460 million was earmarked for public sector wages. Finance Minister Yuval Steinetz said this amount would cover PA debts to the Israel Electric Corp. December 3, 2012 •    Jerusalem: European pressure will not make Israel backtrack The Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem released a statement Monday rejecting demands from certain European governments for Israel to reconsider its plans to build 3,000 housing units and develop the E-1 corridor. Israel will continue to stand by its vital interests. “If the Palestinians take more such steps, Israel will react accordingly.” •    US steps up surveillance on Bushehr safety Two days after DEBKAfile disclosed exclusively that Iran’s nuclear reactor at Bushehr was shut down in mid-October for fear of an explosion, the Wall Street Journal Monday quoted US officials as reporting that surveillance had been stepped up in alarm over activities at Bushehr, especially the removal of fuel rods from the plant in October. They were more concerned about safety at the reactor, for now, than about the prospect that Tehran will use the facility to develop atomic weapons. •    Palestinian killed in axe attack on Israeli Shin Bet officers Four Shin Bet officers were injured, one seriously, before one of them shot the Palestinian axe-wielder dead. The incident near Shavei Shomron on the West Bank began when a Palestinian vehicle crashed into an official jeep. As the Israeli officers extricated themselves from their damaged vehicle, the attacker jumped out of his car and set about them with his axe. •    British UK denies drastic steps for Israel on settlements The British, French and Swedish foreign ministries summoned Israeli ambassadors to complain about Israel’s expanded building plans in Jerusalem and West Bank. A spokesman for PM David Cameron denied he was weighing the drastic measures [reported by British Sky TV] of recalling the British ambassador from Israel or cancelling trade agreements. The French foreign minister also commented: “There are other ways to show disapproval of Israeli settlement plans other than recalling ambassadors.” •    Putin due in Ankara. Russia takes over from Iran as Turkey’s main gas supplier Russian President Vladimir Putin will spend one day in Ankara Monday to sign a huge deal for Russia to replace Iran as Turkey’s main supplier of natural gas. This transaction will boost trade between the two countries from $32 billion to $100 billion. Getting prepared for Assad’s use of chemical weapons DEBKAfile Special Report 03 Dec. US regional forces, Israel, Turkey and Jordan were braced for action Monday, Dec. 3 in case President Bashar Assad ordered his army’s chemical warfare units into action against rebel and civilian targets in his own country. Tthe White House spokesman hinted at possible US military reaction, and the three special US command centers in Turkey, Jordan and Israel for coordinating such operations are on the ready. An American official told Wired Magazine that “engineers working for the Assad regime in Syria have begun combining the two chemical precursors needed to weaponize sarin gas.” Anchored opposite the Syrian shore are the USS Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group and the Russian Black Sea Fleet’s naval task force – both with hundreds of marines on its decks. DEBKAfile’s sources quote high-ranking officers in the Israel Defense Forces’ Northern Command as saying: “The coming hours and days are extremely critical for Syria. The situation on our northern front could blow up any moment.” Iranian-Pakistani naval meet averted DEBKAfile Exclusive Report 03 Dec. Iranian and Pakistani warships had planned a joint Red Sea drill to start Friday, Nov. 30 in Port Sudan. It was rumored in Khartoum that the Pakistani Shashmir carrying nuclear arms or nuclear-related equipment ready to had docked Thursday ready to meet two Iranian warships. At that point, Washington warned Tehran that the US-Iranian nuclear talks due to open Saturday, Dec. 1, would be called off, if this first ever joint drill between a Muslim nuclear power and a close nuclear candidate - one moreover taking place close to the shores of Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Israel - went ahead. Tehran climbed down.	December 4, 2012 •    Cairo riot police fire tear gas, injure 10 protesters Thousands marched on Mohamed Morsi’s presidential palace Tuesday night as a “final warning” against the draft constitution he approved for referendum on Dec. 15.  Riot police fired tear gas when they broke through the cordon around the palace injuring at least ten people, before they evacuated the president from the palace. In Tahrir Square, another 20,000 demonstrators protested against the Muslim Brotherhood-dominated constitution and its limitations on freedoms. Security forces have declared an emergency. •    Israeli ambassador to Cairo summoned to foreign ministry Ambassador Yaacok Amitai was handed a strong Egyptian government protest against Israel’s plans to expand Jerusalem and West Bank construction which were announced after the Palestinians were granted UN nonmember status. •    Egypt’s top judicial body to oversee referendum Egypt's Supreme Judicial Council has agreed to supervise a referendum called by President Mohamed Morsi for Dec. 15 to approve a controversial post-Mubarak constitution opposed by liberal, secular and Christian circles. The council’s decision has split the judiciary after some leading judges called for a boycott on the referendum. •    Doubt cast on Tehran’s claimed capture of US drone over Gulf US Navy’s 5th Fleet spokesman, Cmdr, Jason Salata said all US drones are fully accounted for after Iran claimed its Revolutionary Guards had captured an American ScanEagle drone in Iranian airspace. •    US State Department criticizes Israel on E-1 area planning After White House spokesman called for Israeli to reconsider housing expansion plans for the West Bank in response to the Palestinian upgrade to UN nonmember state as “counterproductive” to peace efforts, State Department spokesman Mark Toner said Monday night that planning for the E-1 area near Jerusalem was “especially damaging to peace efforts.” DEBKAfile: The Palestinians say E-1’s location would make it impossible for them to form a state with viable borders and would block Arab access to East Jerusalem which they want as their capital. Israel says Jewish construction in E-1 would not obstruct an independent Palestinian’s access to Jerusalem through Arab Abu Dis. A corridor at least 15 kilometers wide would connect the northern and southern parts of the West Bank. This is the width of central Israel between its Mediterranean coast and the West Bank border. Assad’s chemical weapons units head north DEBKAfile Exclusive Report 04 Dec. As NATO in Brussels gave the go-ahead for the deployment of Patriots in Turkey, DEBKAfile  reported Syrian army’s chemical weapons units heading out of Damascus under cover of dark and turning north up the road to Aleppo. They were ferrying self-propelled cannons and shells armed with poisonous sarin gas. Assad took advantage of the heavy winds, cloud and rain as elements liable to obstruct Western attacks on the convoys, while ignoring President Barack Obama’s warning of consequences if he or anyone in Syria resorted to chemical warfare. DEBKAfile’s military sources report that by the time the Patriots arrive in Turkey, the Syrian chemical weapons units will almost certainly be in their pre-planned positions. Furthermore, Patriot air defense systems are not designed to counter artillery and would therefore not be able to stop shells loaded with poison gas. December 5, 2012 •    Five dead in increasingly violent anti-Morsi riots in Cairo Five Egyptians were killed and many more injured in the escalating street clashes in Cairo around the presidential palace Wednesday night between opponents and supporters of President Mohamed Morsi. Gunfire, firebombs, rocks and beatings by sticks figured in the disturbance. Three members of Morsi’s advisory team quit to protest the violence. Opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradai said the protests and their handling by the Muslim Brotherhood ruling Egypt have ended the legitimacy of the incumbent regime. •    Netanyahu heads for Prague, Berlin On his way to Berlin to meet Chancellor Angela Merkel, Binyamin Netanyahu stopped over in Prague to personally thank Petr Necas Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, the only EU nation to vote with Israel and the US against the Palestinian UN move last Thursday. USS Eisenhower opposite Syria 05 Dec. The USS Eisenhower Strike Group reached the Syrian coast Tuesday, Dec. 4 in a heavy storm after sailing through the Suez Canal from the Persian Gulf. Aboard are 8 fighter bomber squadrons of Air Wing Seven and 8,000 sailors, airmen and Marines. Together with the USS Iwo Jima, the US has now posted opposite Syria 70 fighter-bombers, 17 warships including three amphibious craft, a guided missile cruiser and 10 destroyers and frigates, and 10,000 American fighting men. Four vessels carry Aegis anti-missile weapons. The US armada indicates that Washington stands ready for direct military intervention in the Syrian conflict. Tuesday night, NATO approved the deployment of Patriot missile batteries in Turkey. December 6, 2012 Merkel says she and Netanyahu agreed to disagree on settlements But we agree on other matters of concern to Israel’s security, said German Chancellor Angela Merkel at the end of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s visit to Berlin Thursday. On the expansion of Jerusalem and West Bank construction, Merkel said: Israel is a sovereign state and must determine its own policy. “Our relations are unchanged and are strong enough to survive our differences.” •    Jordan’s king pays a visit to Ramallah King Abdullah II of Jordan arrived in Ramallah Thursday for a visit to the Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas lasting a few hours. •    German troops and Patriots for Turkey The German government Thursday approved the consignment of German troops and Patriot anti-missile missiles to Turkey for its defense against Syrian aggression. DEBKAfile: The German troops are already in place. •    Labor leader Amir Peretz defects to Livni’s Hatnuah Hours before the Thursday 10:00 p.m. deadline for the submission of party lists for the Jan. 22, 2013 Knesset election, veteran Labor leader Amir Peretz, former defense minister and ex-head of the Histadrut Trades Unions Federation, defected. He joined Hatnuah the new movement formed by former Foreign Secretary Tzipi Livni after the Kadima party deposed her as leader. To join Livni’s outfit, Peretz gave up the second spot he won on the Labor slate in the party’s primary. US: Sarin bombs ready for Assad’s “go” order DEBKAfile Special Report 06 Dec. American officials said Wednesday, Dec. 4, that they believed bombs had been made ready with sarin gas, but not yet loaded onto fighter planes and Assad had not issued the “go” order. In answer to US allegations, Syrian spokesmen reiterated that their government will not use chemical weapons against their own people. This statement leaves wide open the possible use of lethal gas against the countries support the Syrian rebels, such as Turkey and Jordan. And indeed, the Assad regime has in the past referred to “external enemies” as possible targets of chemical warfare, a locution that covers Israel. Prime Minister Netanyahu had nothing to say about this but for: “We are watching the Syrian chemical weapons with concern.”

MORE BIRTH PANGS BEFORE THE RAPTURE!!

Amongst the many current earthquakes ( and numerous volcanoes ) the one in Iran (the hostile enemy of Israel) grabbed my attention. The Scriptures directing our attention to the Rapture and the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus tell us that there will be earthquakes in various (or diverse) places.

In the last seven days alone there have been earthquakes from Iran to the USA, from New Zealand to  Sumatra, and from Japan to even Guatemala there have been strong shakings. The most recent one in Iran yesterday killed five people with many more injured.

A 7.3 magnitude quake has struck off Japan's eastern coast (Thurs), triggering a tsunami warning and a one-metre wave that has hit Miyagi Prefecture. The wave hit the city of Ishinomaki, while the quake was also felt strongly in the capital, Tokyo.

The epicentre of the quake was about 245km (150 miles) south-east of Kamiashi at a depth of about 36km, the US Geological Survey said. Miyagi was hit by a devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011.

When you see these birth pangs happening, look up for your redemption draws ever nearer (Nev).

NASA AND THE BIBLE. HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD!

NASA AND THE BIBLE For many of the scientists out there, and for all the students who have a hard time convincing these people regarding the truth of the Bible, here's something that shows God's awesome creation, and that He is still in control. Did you know that the Space Program is busy proving      that what has been called 'myth' with regard to the Bible    is true? Mr. Harold Hill, President of the Curtis Engine Company      in Baltimore, Maryland, and a consultant in the Space Program, relates the following development:'I think one of the most amazing things that God has done for us today happened recently to our astronauts and space scientists at Green Belt, Maryland ... They were checking out where the positions of the sun, moon, and planets would be 100 years and 1,000 years from now.  We have to know this so we won't send up a satellite and have it bump into something later on in its orbits. We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down. They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries, and it came to a halt.  The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which meant that there was something wrong with either the information fed     into it or with the results as compared to the standards. They called in the service department to check it out, and they asked, 'What's wrong?'  Well, they found there is a day missing in space in elapsed time. They scratched their heads and tore their hair out.  There was no answer. Finally a Christian man on the team said, 'You know, one time I was in Sunday School, and they talked about the sun standing still.'  While they didn't believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so they said, 'Show us!' He got a Bible and went to the book of Joshua where they found a pretty ridiculous statement for any one with 'common sense'. There they found the Lord saying to Joshua, 'Fear them not, I have delivered them into thy hand;     there shall not a man of them stand before thee.' Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by the enemy!  And if darkness fell, they would overpower them. So Joshua asked the Lord to make the sun stand still!  That's right.... 'The sun stood still and the moon stayed   and lasted not to go down about a whole day!' (Joshua 10:12-13) The astronauts and scientists said, "There is the missing day!"  They checked the computers going back into the time it was written, and found it was close but not close enough. The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20 minutes.  Not a whole day. They read the Bible, and there it was about [approximately] a day.  These little words in the Bible are important, but they were still in trouble because if you cannot account for 40 minutes, you'll still be in trouble 1000 years from now. Forty minutes had to be found because it can be multiplied many times over in orbits.  As the Christian employee thought about it, he remembered somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun went BACKWARDS. The scientists told him he was out of his mind, but they got out the Book and read these words in 2 Kings that told of the following story: Hezekiah, on his death bed, was visited by the prophet Isaiah, who told him that he was not going to die.  Hezekiah asked for a sign as proof.  Isaiah asked, 'Do you want the sun to go ahead 10 degrees?' Hezekiah said, 'It is nothing for the sun to go ahead 10 degrees, but let the shadow return backward 10 degrees.' Isaiah spoke to the Lord, and the Lord brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD!  Ten degrees is exactly 40 minutes! Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40 minutes in Second Kings make the missing day in the universe!  Isn't it amazing?! References: Joshua 10:8, 12-13 and 2 Kings 20:9-11. Forward this to as many people who you believe would think this is equally as cool!

If God could do this then, how much more can He do for    us today, if we will only believe in His Word?!

Never be afraid to try something new.
All I have and all that I am is by the Grace of God!

MORE CHRISTIAN GIRLS IN PAKISTAN ARE KIDNAPPED, RAPED, AND FORCED TO CONVERT TO THE SICK RELIGION OF ISLAM!!!

Pakistan: Christian Girl Raped For 11 Days By Two ‘Influential’ Muslim Men, Forced To Convert To Islam

By ICA 

 Pakistan Christian Post – “Vihari, Punjab: November 30, 2012. (PCP) A young Christian girl named, Asiya Masih, daughter of Francis Yaqoob, aged 14 years, was a resident of Chak no.198 EB, District Vihari. Francis Masih worked as a laborer in the fields of the landlords. Due to the poverty, Asiya Masih also helped her parents in the fields to earn some more money for the family.
On 11th November, 2012, she went to the fields to pick cotton flowers from the fields. The two culprits, Mohammad Javed and Mohammad Mumtaz who are the influential persons of their area, abducted her from the fields and took her to some unknown place. They took thumb impressions of Asiya Masih on different papers and forcibly converted her to Islam. They also raped her and tortured her for 11 days.
When Francis Masih came to know that Mohammad Javed and Mohammad Mumtaz had abducted his daughter, he made a complaint in the local police station but the police did not cooperate with him. Afterwards Javed and Mumtaz called Francis Masih and threatened him that if would contact the police, they would kill Asiya Masih. They also proposed Francis that if he wants his daughter back, then he would have to give them a written document that he would not take any police action.

Afterwards with the help of WVIP and Chaudhry Riaz Bashir, who is an influential Christian businessman, Francis Masih got his daughter back on the 22nd of November. But the Paish Imam of the local mosque has announced yesterday that as Asiya Masih was converted to Islam, she cannot live as a Christian again, if she did not follow the Religious customs of Islam, She and her family will face the consequences. He also announced that all eight Christian families of the village should be banished and their houses should be burnt. And today at 5:00 P.M they are holding a meeting of Muslim clerics in Chack No- 198/EB District Vihari . WVIP Team leader of South Punjab and Legal Advisor Mr. Lazar Allahraka is making every effort to help these Christian families as well Aisya Masih. The Executive Director of WVIP, Mr. Farrukh H.

IRAN CLAIMS THAT "TEL AVIV WILL BURN TO ASHES"!! NOT ACCORDING TO MY BIBLE (NEV)!

Tel Aviv ‘Will Burn To Ashes’: Iran Aims 170 Ballistic Missiles Toward Israel, Many With Biological Warheads

By ICA 

Reports such as this remind us that the day is quickly approaching when the prophesied war of Gog-Magog will no longer be spoken of in a future tense …
 By REZA KAHLILI – “Iran has 170 ballistic missiles aimed at Tel Aviv, many with biological warheads, WND has learned.
According to a source who served in Iran’s Intelligence Ministry and who recently defected, the Islamic regime has armed hundreds of its ballistic missiles with biological warheads, and 170 of them are targeting Tel Aviv from underground missile silos.
The Islamic regime ruling Iran has prepared for the total destruction of Israel, he said.
As reported in the Washington Times in August, a commentary in Mashregh, the media outlet of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, confirmed that the Islamic regime not only has weapons of mass destruction but has armed its terrorist proxies with them, including Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad. The commentary warned Israel that if the fighting in Syria does not stop, an all-out attack on the Jewish state will be launched and that at zero hour, Tel Aviv will be the first city to be destroyed.

A senior Iranian cleric, Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami, warned then that Tel Aviv ‘will burn to ashes,’ and the regime’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, promised ’the superfluous and fake Zionist regime will disappear from the landscape of geography.’
The source, talking to WND, confirmed that Iran has made significant advances on several fronts – chemical, biological, nuclear and electronic warfare – and that the regime is looking at the deterioration in Syria and the possibility of an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities with the intent of setting Israel and the region on fire.

The regime is adamant about its support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, the source said, and is working on its nuclear weapons program at several sites unknown to the West. The International Atomic Energy Agency, the source said, is on the wrong track by focusing only on the Natanz and Fordo nuclear sites.
There are more than 70 North Korean military advisers and scientists working in Iran on the country’s defense projects, including work on a plutonium bomb, the source said.
The Associated Press reported exclusively last week that the Islamic regime’s scientists have worked on a design for a plutonium bomb with three times the explosive force of what was used on Hiroshima.

An exclusive report by WND revealed that a secret nuclear site, code name Valayat 1, had been constructed at an underground facility in the outskirts of Najafabad in Isfahan Province. Iranian scientists there were working on a neutron detonator and implosion system along with separating plutonium for an implosion-type fission bomb.
The source also verified the existence of the Valayat 1 nuclear bomb project and the underground facility at that site.
Days ago, Secretary of the State Hillary Clinton offered bilateral talks on Iran’s nuclear program, but Ali Saeidi, the supreme leader’s representative in the Revolutionary Guards, rejected the proposal.
‘In the negotiations that America pursues, there is no positive outcome for Iran as the matters between America and Iran on the strategic level are so vast there can’t be any negotiations,’ Saeidi said. ‘America is after its dominance of the world and will never give up its nature … surely in their negotiations, they want Iran to give up its support of Hezbollah in Lebanon, resistance in Palestine, the regional movements and worldwide Shiites.’

Khamenei, in a speech to navy commanders last week on the country’s military achievements, said, ‘A look at the situation and the recent events in the region and the world clearly shows the upper hand of the Islamic republic of Iran.’
A close adviser to the supreme leader, Alireza Panahian, also last week in a speech widely covered by the regime, said ‘victory for the faithful’ is close.
‘Based on the recent events and the expansion of the Islamic movement in the region … and based on logical calculation, the coming is upon us and in the coming years everything will be finished,’ he said, adding that with the regime’s leadership, the coming of the last Islamic Messiah, the Shiites’ 12th Imam, is soon and a certainty. Shiites believe Mahdi’s coming will be preceded by Armageddon.” Source – WND.

MORE "ANCIENT EVIDENCE" FOR GIANTS, AND THE FALLEN ANGELS OF GENESIS SIX!!

Ancient Evidence For Giants

Posted on December 3, 2012

by iamisatthedoors

 Fossil restorationist Joe Taylor talked about ancient evidence for giants, his creationist views, and the fossils of large creatures. There is data which shows that there were men who were 12 to 15 ft. tall or even taller; these were not people with unusual medical conditions– they were soldiers buried in their armor, he said, adding that they had six fingers and toes instead of five, and two rows of teeth. According to reports by Native Americans and others, the giants were wicked, and cannibalistic, and Taylor believes they were the ‘fallen angels’ written about in the Bible. Paleontologists claim the skeletal evidence for giants doesn’t exist, and that these large bones actually belonged to animals, he noted.

Taylor found parts of about 30 or 40 mastodons and mammoths in West Texas– an area that is quite dry now, but when these creatures were alive must have had a lot of foliage to support their herds. In contrast to Darwinists, he’s found evidence that man & dinosaur lived at the same time. Further, some dinosaurs still exist in the Amazon jungle, according to witness testimony, he reported. Taylor doubts the accuracy of scientific dating systems such as carbon-14, which can estimate the age of artifacts up to 50,000 years old. He cited that carbon-14 is found in dinosaur bones which are supposed to be millions of years old. He also contended that the Earth is only around 6,000 years old, and that methods of estimating the age of the planet such as through limestone formations are faulty.
Biography:
Joe Taylor is the owner and curator of the Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum. While studying to become a commercial illustrator Joe volunteered at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles which sparked his desire to find out the truth about fossils. Today he is one of the nation’s foremost fossil restorationists and his work is sought out by individuals, museums and other institutions in this country and abroad.

Wikipedia
Fallen angel is a concept that is typically synonymous with a wicked or rebellious angel. As the actual term fallen angel is not found in either the Hebrew Bible or the Deuterocanonical Books or the New Testament, biblical commentators use this term to describe angels who sinned or angels cast down to the earth from the War in Heaven, Satan, demons, or certain Watchers.

Main article: 1 Enoch
A Jewish myth of angels coming down to earth rather than being cast down, referred to as the myth of angelic descent, is found chiefly in the Jewish pseudepigraphic Book of Enoch, 6-9 and the Qumran Book of Giants and perhaps in Genesis 6:1-4. The angels in question were Watchers who were inveigled by the beauty of human women, had intercourse with them and corrupted mankind. They were the prime instigators of the sinfulness that led to the Great Deluge. This myth was adopted by early Christianity, but abandoned by Rabbinic Judaism and later Christianity. During the period immediately before the rise of Christianity, the intercourse between these Watchers and human women was often seen as the first fall of the angels.
In esoteric and occult teachings, Giants are real beings who live on spiritual, etheric and physical planes of existence. Giants were a popular theme in theosophical literature, Atlantis, lost continents and later the earth mysteries movement of Britain in the 1970s.

History
The concept of giants was discussed by the theosophist and occult author Madame Blavatsky who wrote about the existence of giants in her book The Secret Doctrine connecting them to her theory of root races and claiming they correspond with Hindu cycle of the universe. According to theosophists ape-like giants were the third root race who lived on the continent of Lemuria. Theosophists also linked giants to the Atlantean race.
Ahu Tongariki near Rano Raraku, Occultists and Theosophists claim the stone structures were built by a race of giants.

Madame Blavatsky claimed that the Easter Island stone structures were built by the fourth root race, a race of giants. She also claimed due to the size of Buddhas of Bamiyan in Afghanistan they had been built by giants measuring 60 feet tall. Blavatsky linked the Polynesian peoples as the very earliest survivors as a “sub-race” of the fourth root-race, due to the Polynesian people being “a higher stature than the rest of mankind”.
Watcher (Aramaic, עִיר, iyr; Theodotian trans: ir; from the verb ur, “to watch”; Heb. er, “being watchful”; Gk. ἐγρήγοροι, trans: egrḗgoroi; Slav transliteration, Grigori, “Watchers”, “those who are awake”; Chaldean, “guard”, “watcher”) is a term used in connection with angels. Watcher occurs in both plural and singular forms in the Book of Daniel, where reference is made to them being holy. The Apocryphal Books of Enoch refer to both good and bad Watchers, with a primary focus on the rebellious ones.

JOHN McTERNAN ON "JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM"!!

Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Jerusalem

                         Verse of the Day

Zechariah 12:6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

Commentary

The issue now on the world stage is Jerusalem, Jerusalem and Jerusalem. As time goes on, the dividing of Jerusalem will get more intense. I believe Jerusalem will be the rallying cry of the Muslim jihad in the war with Israel.

Building in East Jerusalem which has the world upset

PM pushes back against pressure to rescind settlement plans 12/03/12 More and more the issue is Jerusalem. God is using Jerusalem for judgment against the unbelieving nations of the world.

“Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu pushed back Monday against intense international pressure to reconsider plans to build 3,000 housing units and go ahead with planning the controversial E1 site, with sources in his office saying no one should expect Israel to sit on its hands in light of Palestinian unilateral steps at the UN.
As one European country after the next called in Israel’s ambassador to protest the settlement plans, a source in the PMO issued a statement saying that Israel would “continue to stand up for its vital interests even in the face of international pressure.”
The official said there will be no change in the decision made Friday to build 3,000 housing units in the large settlement blocks, and to go ahead with planning and zoning work for the E1 neighborhood linking Jerusalem to Ma’ale Adumim northeast of the capital.
“The Palestinian unilateral moves at the UN is a blatant and fundamental violation of agreements to which the international community was a guarantor,” the official said. “No one should be surprised that Israel is not sitting with its arms folded in response to the unilateral Palestinian steps.”

Obama administration chides Israel over settlement construction plans 12/03/12 Obama is upset with Israel over Jerusalem. This city is a burdensome stone for the nations.

As we watch these events unfold, stay focused on the coming of the Lord Jesus. The hatred is building against Israel and all who stand with the Jews.

May the Holy God of Israel bless and protect you.

Hebrews 12:1,2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

God’s Final Warning to America

We need to watch what the Supreme Court does with homosexual “marraige” and what happens to the economy. If this court rules in favor of the homosexual agenda, let’s see what disaster happens at this time and it could be linked to the economy. It would be fitting if the economy collapsed at the time of a pro homosexual decision.
Supreme Court Weighs How to Proceed on Gay Marriage 11/30/12

Optimism faded when fiscal talks resumed; 31 days remain until deadline 12/01/12 This could set off a chain reaction in the bond market and downgrade the US credit rating.

Hard Left

DOE Investigating School Over Bible and Homosexuality Comment 12/01/12 The Hard Left will crush all opposition to the homosexual agenda. Belief in the Bible is NO defense against these ruthless people. The velvet gloves are off and the reprobates are using the “iron fist”.

First same-sex marriage being celebrated Saturday at West Point’s Cadet Chapel 12/01/12 The LORD’S curse is just spreading throughout the military. How can God bless America with this behavior and mockery of marriage.

UN Chief: Israel Settlement Bid a ‘Fatal Blow’ to Peace 12/03/12 The entire world is upset with Israel building in Jerusalem. There is great pressure coming on Israel over Jerusalem.

“U.N. leader Ban Ki-moon warned Sunday that if Israel implemented its latest plan for new settlements it would deal an “almost fatal blow” to any prospects for peace with the Palestinians.

“It was with grave concern and disappointment that the secretary general learned of Israel’s announcement of 3,000 new settlement units in east Jerusalem and other parts of the West Bank,” a statement from Ban’s spokesman said. “This would include reported planning in the so-called E1 envelope, which risks completely cutting off east Jerusalem from the rest of the West Bank,” the statement said. “Settlements are illegal under international law and, should the E1 settlement be constructed, it would represent an almost fatal blow to remaining chances of securing a two-state solution.”

Syria Warplanes In Damascus Suburbs Strike Rebels 12/03/12 One way or another, Damascus is totally destroyed and never rebuilt as a city. It is very close. The fighting is all around Damascus. It appears that Assad’s power is greatly weakening and very soon he may flee Syria for Iran.

Syria Fighting Escalates as Clinton Warns Against Use of Chemical Weapons 12/03/12 Assad has threatened to take out the entire Middle East if he is removed from office. This is real serious has he has long range missiles with weapons of mass destruction. 

“Syria said on Monday it would not use chemical weapons against its own people after the United States warned it would take action against any such escalation. The statements came amid media reports, citing European and U.S. officials, that Syria’s chemical weapons had been moved and could be prepared for use in response to dramatic gains by rebels fighting to topple President Bashar al-Assad. “Syria has stressed repeatedly that it will not use these types of weapons, if they were available, under any circumstances against its people,” the foreign ministry said.”

Palestinian ‘state’ not real until peace with Israel 11/30/12 The Palestinians will never recognize Israel as their goal is to destroy Israel.

PA hints it may turn to ICC over settlement plans 12/01/12 This is part of the world coming against Israel.

Legal implication of the United Nations Resolution on Palestine 12/01/12

U.S. sets March deadline for Iran to cooperate with IAEA 11/29/12 This is a real joke as Iran is never going to give up its nuclear programs unless it is forced. How many times have we heard about these deadlines!

Islamists shut down Egypt’s Supreme Court 12/03/12 Morsi is now bringing Egypt under the control of the Muslim Brotherhood. There is no stopping this process and Morsi will kill all who resist him.

Financial Armageddon

City Attorney Tells San Bernardino Residents To ‘Lock Their Doors,’ ‘Load Their Guns’ Because Of Police Downsizing 11/30/12 This will happen across the country as economy melts down. It will spawn social unrest and violence.

Median Household Income Plummets to 43-Year Low 12./01/12 This is part of the curse that settled on America. The nation is now heading into poverty because of sin. This cannot be turned around as the debt is so large that nothing can control it.

Greeks turn to the forests for fuel as winter nears 11/28/12 There is now no end to poverty coming to Greece.

Washington Proposes $1 Trillion Bailout for Delinquent Student Loans 11/29/12 Where is this money coming from? It is debt payment created by fiat! This is all part of the economic collapse that cannot be stopped.

JERUSALEM THE ETERNAL CAPITAL OF PALESTINE!!! WHO DOES ABBAS THINK HE IS KIDDING?????

PA Chairman Abbas Declares Jerusalem The Eternal Capital Of Palestine, Promises To Soon Raise Flag Over City

By ICA 

The dividing of the land for gain has begun. Now they just have to wait for it to be enforced for the glory of Allah …

Daniel 11:39, “Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain.”

Zechariah 12:3,9, “And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it… It shall be in that day [that] I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.”

 By Chana Ya’ar, INN – “PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas Sunday promised someday the PA flag would fly over ‘Jerusalem, eternal capital of the state of Palestine.’
Thousands of people greeted Abbas rapturously upon his return from the United Nations, where the General Assembly granted the PLO, representing the PA, upgraded status as a nonmember observer state.
‘Raise your heads high, because you are Palestinians!’ Abbas told the joyous crowd, waving PA flags in the PA capital of Ramallah, located in Samaria.
‘You have proof that you are stronger than the occupation, because you are Palestinians… stronger than the settlements, because you are Palestinians.

‘We were threatened with punishment and sanctions from various sides,’ Abbas continued, in a reference to attempts by the United States and Israel to dissuade him from proceeding with the application.
‘And if we had listened to those threats we wouldn’t have gone to the U.N.
‘One day, a young Palestinian will raise the Palestinian flag over Jerusalem,’ he vowed, ‘the eternal capital of the state of Palestine!’” Source – INN.

Flashback: Abbas: The Goal of the Palestinian People are Pre-1967 Borders – “The goal of the Palestinian people is the realisation of their inalienable national rights in their independent State of Palestine, with East Jerusalem as its capital, on all the land of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip, which Israel occupied in the June 1967 war, in conformity with the resolutions of international legitimacy and with the achievement of a just and agreed upon solution to the Palestine refugee issue in accordance with Resolution 194, as stipulated in the Arab Peace Initiative which presented the consensus Arab vision …” Read more.

I wish to sacrifice more [sons] for Allah’s forgiveness, and for the flag [of Islam], ‘There is no god but Allah’, to fly over Palestine….

IDF CHIEF IS READY FOR IRAN, THANKS TO THE SUCCESS OF THE BRILLIANT "IRON DOME" DEFENCE MECHANISM!

Israeli Defense Chief Sounds Ready to Hit Iran, Thanks in Part to Iron Dome
"Israel’s retiring defense chief thinks Iran needs to be “coerced” in 2013 from building an atom bomb, despite any U.S. hopes that sanctions will bring Tehran to the negotiating table. And the recent success of his new, U.S.-funded missile defenses seems to have convinced him that Israel is better able than ever to deter its Iran-backed foes. “Of course, we would love to see some heavenly intervention that will stop them, to wake up some morning and learn that they’ve given up on their nuclear intentions,” Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak told reporters at the Pentagon Thursday during a joint press conference with Leon Panetta, his American counterpart."

I had mentioned yesterday that Israel's current military success is a wonderful thing, culturally, in that the citizens of the nation have a bit more reassurance that they can live through the day without a terrorist rocket falling on them. But in the long run it is actually counterproductive spiritually, because as long as they rely on themselves they will not rely on the Holy God of Israel. You see the Defense Minister's next statement:
“You cannot build a strategy based on these wishes or prayers."
Oh, yes you can. Elisha did.
"When the servant of the man of God rose early in the morning and went out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was all around the city. And the servant said, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” He said, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” Then Elisha prayed and said, “O LORD, please open his eyes that he may see.” So the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. (@ Kings 6:16-17)
God is the protector of all who are His servants and of His holy nation.
"What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31)
God will use the Gog Magog war that's prophesied in Ezekiel 38-39 to show His people and His nation once again that He is their protector.
"And my holy name I will make known in the midst of my people Israel, and I will not let my holy name be profaned anymore. And the nations shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. Behold, it is coming and it will be brought about, declares the Lord God. That is the day of which I have spoken." (Ezekiel 39:7-8)
Heavenly intervention WILL occur. It will happen exactly as He said and n in His timing. Keep watching. It seems that it may be sooner rather than later.

SINKHOLES, EXPLOSIONS, & EARTHQUAKES! WHAT IS HAPPENING??

GLOBAL JIHAD AGAINST AMERICA, BRITAIN, AND ISRAEL!!

Nigeria: Terror Leader Calls For Global Jihad Against America, Britain And Israel For The ‘Cause Of Allah Everywhere’

By ICA 

 By Tim Cocks, Reuters – “The leader of Nigerian Islamist sect Boko Haram praises jihadist movements across the globe and singled out the United States, Britain, Israel and Nigeria as enemies in a new video, according to a translation by the SITE monitoring service.
The 39-minute video ‘Glad Tidings, O Soldiers of Allah’, posted in a jihadist forum, features a speech by sect leader Abubakar Shekau with an unusually international focus for a group that has often seemed more pre-occupied with local gripes.
Unlike previous video speeches, which he delivered in his native Hausa tongue, the one posted on Thursday is in Arabic. Shekau pledges solidarity with Islamist fighters everywhere.

‘Nigeria and other crusaders, meaning America and Britain, should witness, and the Jews of Israel who are killing the Muslims in Palestine should witness … that we are with our mujahideen brothers in the cause of Allah everywhere,’ he said, according to SITE’s translation.
The video appears to confirm the fears of security agents that Boko Haram has ambitions to join forces with other Islamist groups pursuing a more explicitly global, anti-Western agenda – like al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), based in Mali…
The video wishes ‘glad tidings’ on Islamist warriors in ‘Islamic Maghreb’ (the Sahara) and ‘the Islamic State in Mali’, as well as Somalia, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen and ‘usurped Palestine’.
He list ‘martyrs’ in the global fight against world powers like Britain and the United States, including Osama bin-Laden.
‘Don’t think that jihad stops with the death of imams, because imams are individuals,’ he tells them. ‘Think how many sheikhs and men were martyred … Did jihad stop? No. Jihad doesn’t stop until Allah wills it to be stopped.’” Read more.

Flashback: Boko Haram: Our Goal is to Eliminate Followers of Christ – “Terrorist organisation Boko Haram has issued a statement making clear that its goal is to eliminate followers of Christ from Nigeria and establish an Islamic state. ‘The Nigerian state and Christians are our enemies and we will be launching attacks on the Nigerian state and its security apparatus as well as churches until we achieve our goal of establishing an Islamic state in place of the secular state … We are responsible for the suicide attack on a church in Jos and also another attack on another church in Biu,’ a spokesman for the group, Abul Qaqa, is said to have told reporters in the northeastern city of Maiduguri over the phone.” Read more.

IS ISRAEL FALLING INTO THE FINAL TRAP LEADING TO THE EMERGENCE OF THE ANTICHRIST?

Ready to walk into the final trap of “special regime” in Jerusalem

Ehud Barak and Mahmoud Abbas has agreed to let the Old city of Jerusalem be taken over by a “special regime”.

The Israeli leadership seems to walk right into the final trap. The stage for the final anti-Messiah is about to be set up in Jerusalem.

The Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak offered the PA government East Jerusalem already in 1997.  Before He left for “peace talk” in Jerusalem, Barak held secret talks with chairman Mahmoud Abbas.
To the Israeli Daily “Haaretz”, Barak disclosed that the government of Israel is willing to divide Jerusalem.
“As for the “Jerusalem problem” the western side of the city plus “12 Jewish neighborhoods that are home to 200,000 residents will be ours. The neighborhoods in which nearly 250,000 Arabs are living “will be theirs.”, explained Barak.

In regards to the Old city, Barak envisions a “special regime” with “agreed-upon arrangements” to administer the Old City, the Mount of Olives and the City of David.
The concept is similar to one raised in the past by the administration of former U.S. President Bill Clinton, who recommended the area, which he referred to as the “Holy Basin,” be internationalized under a “special regime.”

Prior to his re-election as Israel’s prime minister nearly two years ago, Binyamin Netanyahu warned a gathering at the Jerusalem Conference in January 2009 that leftist politicians would try to internationalize the holy sites in Jerusalem.
He vowed to fight the move.
“Some politicians are trying to blur the importance of the Temple Mount to the Jewish People by referring to it as the ‘Holy Basin’,” he told the crowd at the time. “We, as Jews, know who built the Temple Mount.”
Netanyahu promised the packed hall, “We have demonstrated in the past, and will continue to demonstrate our commitment to a complete, undivided Jerusalem… Everyone knows what will happen if we were to leave those areas and divide Jerusalem. Someone will enter – and that someone will be Hamas.”

My comment:
I have earlier published articles about the “special regime” in Jerusalem, that will be bring the final anti-Messiah into the “Holy basin”.
Link to the article about the Old city of Jerusalem initiative.
Martin Luther called the Pope in Rome for an anti-Messiah. I agree with him.
I have also published an article about the shift of the anti-Messiah’s chair in Rome, to be shifted to Jerusalem.
Read the article behind this link.
Now it looks like the leaders of the Jewish people is about to walk into the trap, that the devil’ s children has set up.

WHY DOES THE MEDIA FAIL TO FOCUS ON PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS??

Why Christian Persecution is Islam’s Achilles’ Heel

By Raymond Ibrahim

Which of the following three headlines is most difficult for the media—including the usual array of liberal pundits, apologists, academics, and politicians—to whitewash or rationalize away?  Which most exposes Islam’s inherent intolerance?
A)    “Allahu Akbar” screaming Muslims fire rockets into Israel
B)   “Allahu Akbar” screaming Muslims riot and commit acts of violence in Europe
C)   “Allahu Akbar” screaming Muslims torch a Christian church in a Muslim country
The answer is C—Christian persecution.
Why?
Because in both scenarios A and B, Muslims will always be portrayed and seen as the “underdogs”—and hence always exonerated for their behavior.  No matter how violent or ugly, no matter how many Islamic slogans are shrieked—thus placing their behavior in a purely Islamic context—Muslim violence against the West and Israel will always be dismissed as a product of the weak and outnumbered status of Muslims—their status as underdogs, which the West tends to romanticize.  And so they will always get a free pass, without further ado.

They may be screaming and rioting, firing rockets and destroying property—all while calling for the death and destruction of the “infidel” West and/or Israel to cries of “Allahu Akbar!” Still, no problem.  According to the aforementioned array of pundits, apologists, academics, and politicians, such bloodlust is a natural byproduct of the frustration Muslims feel as an oppressed minority, “rightfully” angry with the “colonial” West and its Israeli proxy.  Indeed, that is precisely how even the 9/11 attacks on the U.S. by al-Qaeda were rationalized away by many “experts”—even as al-Qaeda’s own words exposed their animus as a direct product of Muslim doctrine not temporal grievances.

Most recently, the New York Times, in the context of the rocket attacks on Tel Aviv, asserted that Israel “needs a different approach to Hamas and the Palestinians based more on acknowledging historic grievances,” thus taking all blame off the “aggrieved” and “underdog” Muslims and Palestinians.
But if Muslims get a free pass when their violence is directed against those currently stronger than them, how does one rationalize away their violence when it is directed against those weaker than them, those who have no political influence whatsoever?  Consider the most obvious of these scenarios, the growing epidemic of Muslim persecution of Christians.  From one end of the Islamic world to the other—whether in Arab lands, African lands, Asian lands, or Sinic lands, wherever Muslims are a majority—the largest non-Muslim religious group, Christians, suffer untold atrocities.

The rationalizations used to minimize Muslim violence against the West and Israel simply cannot work here—for now Muslims are the majority, and they are the ones violent and oppressive to their minorities, often in ways that would make the worst Israeli treatment of Muslims look kind and benevolent.
In short, Christian persecution is one of, if not the clearest reflections of Islamic supremacism.   Vastly outnumbered and politically marginalized Christians simply wish to worship in peace, and yet still are they hounded and attacked, their churches burned and destroyed, their women and children enslaved and raped (see monthly “Muslim Persecution of Christians” reports for an example).

These Christians are often identical to their Muslim co-citizens, in race, ethnicity, national identity, culture, and language; there is no political dispute, no land dispute.  The only problem is that they are Christian—they are the other—and so must be subjugated, according to Sharia’s position for all “others,” for all infidels—including Israel and the West.
Such is the true nature of Muslim rage throughout the world: it is a byproduct of doctrinal intolerance if not downright hatred for the other, who must always be kept in a state of subjugation and humiliation, according to the letter of the Quran.
Accordingly, while Christian persecution is the clearest example of this hate, it also explains why others are so despised, for example, Israel.

Consider: Christians and Jews are both constantly castigated in the Quran: Muslims are admonished not to befriend either of them (5:51) and to fight and subjugate them “until they pay tribute with willing submission and feel themselves brought low” (9:29).  Christians under Islam are suffering accordingly—as despised dhimmis, abused and “brought low,” routinely plundered of their lives, dignity, and possessions.
On the other hand, Israel—the dhimmi that got away—actually has authority and power over Muslims.  Now, if dhimmis are supposed to be kept in total submission to Muslims, how then when one of them actually lords over Muslims?
Hence Islam’s immense and existential rage against the Jewish state.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE 65TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE PALESTINIAN STATE??

The Palestinians could have been celebrating the 65th anniversary of their state today. What happened?

The Palestinians could have been celebrating the 65th anniversary of their state today. What happened?

Posted: November 29, 2012 in Uncategorized

 

Reposted from Joel Rosenberg´s blog: flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com

 

Map of 1947 UN “Partition Plan.” (source: BBC)

(Los Angeles, California) I am sympathetic to the plight of the Palestinian people. They are loved by the Lord God of the Bible, but they are forgotten or ignored by much of the world. Tragically, most of their leaders over the years have been either corrupt, misguided, or incompetent. They deserve so much better. Consider briefly the sad pattern of modern history:

* 1947– Humanly speaking, the Palestinians could have been celebrating the 65th anniversary of their state today. After all, 65 years ago today, the U.N. voted on the “Partition Plan,” giving part of British Mandated “Palestine” to the Jews to create the state of Israel, and part to the Arabs to create a Palestinian/Jordanian state. The Jewish leaders said yes to the U.N. plan, and created Israel. The Arabs said no to the U.N. plan, and went to war to destroy the Jews. They lost the war and got heartache and poverty instead.

* 1967 — The Arabs — led by Egypt and Syria — built up their military forces, surrounded Israel, and vowed to “throw the Jews into the sea.” But they not only lost the Six Day War, they lost control of Judea and Samaria (the West Bank), and the Golan Heights, and the city of Jerusalem. Israel offered to make a peace treaty. But the Arabs issued the famous “Three Noes” declaration at a summit in Khartoum: no peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel.

* 2000 – Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered Yasser Arafat a sovereign Palestinian state in 2000 at Camp David, including all of Gaza, 90% of the West Bank, and half the Old City of Jerusalem. Arafat said no, and went home to unleash a wave of suicide bombings and other terrorists attacks against Israel known as the Second Intifada.

* 2005 – Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon withdrew all Israeli forces and people from Gaza and unilaterally gave the Palestinians Gaza without asking for a treaty in return. Yet the Palestinian leadership said no to making peace. Rather, the Palestinians began firing thousands of rocket and missile from Gaza at Israeli civilians.

* 2008 – Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert offered the Palestinians a sovereign state, yet again the Palestinian leadership said no.

* 2009 — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came out in support of a Palestinian state (with some caveats). Yet the Palestinian leadership refused even to sit down for direct negotiations with Netanyahu and his government.

Today, the Palestinian people still live in pain and poverty. Last week, the Palestinian leaders in Gaza started a war with Israel and committed more than 3,000 war crimes. Today, they want the world to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state, rather than sittting down and negotiating with the Israeli government and people. In this morning’s Wall Street Journal, Israel’s Ambassador to the U.N. Ron Prosor writes a column that is worth reading and considering. He asks, “Exactly what kind of state are we voting for?” A few excerpts:

• A state with no control over its territory — The Palestinian Authority has zero authority in Gaza today. Out of concern for his personal safety, President Abbas has not even seen this area with binoculars since 2007, when the Hamas terrorist organization seized control of it in a bloody coup. Demonstrating their affection for Mr. Abbas, Hamas threw members of his political party off 12-story rooftops. While members of the U.S. Congress visit their constituents on a weekly basis, President Abbas hasn’t laid eyes on almost half of the Palestinian population for six years.
• A terrorist state — States recognized by the U.N. must pledge to be “peace-loving.” This month, Hamas showed its commitment to peace and love in Gaza by firing more than 1,200 rockets into Israeli cities.
• An undemocratic state — Hamas has imposed brutal tyranny in Gaza, and Palestinian democracy in the West Bank is also far from Jeffersonian. President Abbas’s mandate to rule expired three years ago. He continues to personally extend it without elections or consultation from his people.
• A bankrupt state —  Palestinian Authority institutions remain completely dependent on foreign aid, limping from crisis to crisis. Yet this year, as the PA threatened to delay payroll for many employees, it tripled payments to convicted terrorists. Today the PA devotes 6% of its annual budget to payments for imprisoned terrorists and the families of suicide bombers, and less than 1% to higher education.

As I stated at the beginning of this column, I am sympathetic with the plight of the Palestinian people. They are loved by God, but so poorly led. That said, should the world support a sovereign Palestinians state under current circumstances? Should Christians around the world support a Palestinian state at all? 

As I explained in detail yesterday, and have written numerous times before, I believe the answer is no. The Bible says God will judge all nations who divide the Land of Israel. Our love for Palestinians cannot turn a blind eye to such Biblical warnings. But we should support autonomy for the Palestinian people. And as Christians, we should support and encourage the Christian community in the West Bank and Gaza, and do what the Lord allows us to do to build up the Church among the Palestinian people. We should help them love their neighbors, study the Word of God, share the Gospel, make disciples, train pastors, and plant new Bible-teaching congregations. We should also help them stand for justice and stand against injustice of all kinds.
