Israel's right to exist

England's Prince Harry used the slang "Paki" in a private video to refer to a Middle Eastern friend, and the world is outraged. He is forced to publicly apologize and is reprimanded by his military superiors. But when pro-Hamas demonstrators rally in the streets of Fort Lauderdale a few weeks ago calling for Jews to "go back to the ovens," there isn't even a blip on the screen. A pro-Hamas rally in Copenhagen, Denmark, this weekend chanted: "We want to kill all the Jews," "All the Jews should be slain," "They have no right to exist." Where is the outrage?

While the Sun Sentinel never even mentioned the chant in the article that covered the Fort Lauderdale event, they did quote one pro-Israel protester, Allyn Kanowsky of Coral Springs, who summarized what is going on very well: "If the Palestinians laid down their arms, there would be no war. If the Israelis laid down their arms, there would be no Israel."

That's what it's all about. Israel's right to exist.

Two little Jewish boys came to my door a few days ago selling chocolate. I ordered some not because I need more chocolate but, as I told them, because I want to bless Israel. Those who bless Israel are blessed and those who curse Israel are cursed. As Christians reading their One-Year Bible beginning in Genesis are reminded, this is the promise God made to Abraham and it wasn't a "limited time offer." I've not seen anything in the Bible to suggest that it expired at the coming of the Messiah.

I was shocked by how the propaganda about what was happening in the Middle East had permeated even these Jewish children who were raising money for their Hebrew school. One of the boys said, "Everyone is mad at Israel because they blew up a Hamas school." As I explained to them, this may be what's being reported, but the truth looks quite different.

The fact is: In 2005, thousands of Jews were pulled out of their homes and communities in Gaza. They tore down temples, dug up cemeteries and gave up land on the premise that it would somehow bring peace. Since that time, the terrorist group Hamas has launched 6,500 rockets into Israel, including 300 in a period of six days before the Israeli offensive started. Civilian areas were deliberately targeted in these attacks against the Jews.

It's all about self-defense.

But most of the media has given the false impression that Israel made an unprovoked attack on poor Palestinians who live in the Gaza Strip. The truth is that from 1993 through 2005, Hamas sent 113 suicide bombers into Israel to kill innocent civilians on buses, at malls, restaurants and hotels. Thousands of Hamas terror attacks killed 425 Israelis and wounded 2,233 in the last eight years.

My friend Don Feder writes, "If you're curious about what a Palestinian state would look like, consider Mumbai. Among 174 dead were a rabbi and his pregnant wife, who endured unbelievable torture (the wife was also sexually assaulted) before they were killed."

Around the globe, Jews are being assaulted and are the subject of protests. There have been arson attacks against Jewish congregations in England, France and Sweden. Feder said what's happening in Europe is "the worst anti-Semitic violence since Kristallnacht."

Former PLO terrorist Walid Shoebat – now a pro-Israel Christian – was a guest on my Faith2Action radio program last week. He committed a capital offense in Muslim law by converting to Christianity when he spent six-months studying the Bible in an effort to discredit it and to convert his wife to his Muslim faith.

I learned something in that interview. In a response to a caller's question, Shoebat gave some of the "names for Allah," which are nothing like the description of the Judeo-Christian God. Our God is referred to with names such as, Father, Savior, Prince of Peace, and Comforter, just to name a few. But the names of Allah he listed are: "the most proud one," "the creator of all deceivers," the one who causes death," and "the afflicter." Quite a contrast.

No, Islam is a "religion of peace" – suggest otherwise in, say, a cartoon, and you can count the dead bodies to find out just how peaceful they are.

Now, not surprisingly, President-elect Obama is reaching out to meet with the Hamas terrorists. What did you expect? They endorsed him, after all.

We in America may be getting what we deserve, but our greatest ally, Israel, I'm afraid, will also suffer greatly. Just another reason for the U.S. Supreme Court to verify this guy's citizenship in the second case by Philip J. Berg before the Court this Friday, and the case brought by attorney Orly Taitz, which the Court has agreed to consider taking a week from Friday.

Christians, when you pray for the peace of Jerusalem – as we've been commanded to do – pray also for the Supreme Court to take these cases to verify Obama's citizenship and uphold our Constitution.

The Danger of Pulling Out of IRAQ

What the West doesn’t understand

By X-Terrorist and lover of Zion, Walid Shoebat, Author of God’s War on Terror

The day that the US troops leave Iraq it will be controlled by Iran the major pricking brier for Israel. No one today denies that Iran with its prospects of gaining nuclear status has transformed itself into a super power in the midst of majority Sunni Muslim region. But Iran is hardly isolated, with Iraq (65% Shiite), Syria’s ruling Shiite Alawite regime, and Lebanon’s Shiite Hezbollah, alongside Iran’s puppet Hamas will create a horn stemming from Iran forming a dagger into Israel’s heartland. America’s futile support of Saudi Arabia and Turkey in order to balance this threat and exit Iraq in false hope to neutralize Iran’s takeover of Iraq ignores a major factor—that in the Middle East loyalty to Islam first and second to sect prevails over democracy and truth. Iraq and Iran has Circassians, Turkmens, Turks and Azeris, which are Turkey’s natural allies. Instead, Turkey will gain a foothold as another regional superpower and instead of fulfilling America’s hope will unite with Iran. Westerners that bank on Sunni-Shiite divide ignores that Sunni Muslims in their desire to destroy Israel will unite. During the Hezbollah-Israeli fiasco, everyone witnessed Hamas advocates carrying both Hezbollah’s Shiite yellow flag alongside the green Sunni Hamas flag and Hezbollah did the same. This is crucial since Turkey eventually will ally itself with Iran and central Asia for a last dash against Israel. Anyone who doubts can search the Bible for Elam(Iran) Lydia(Turkey) Tyre(Lebanon) Arabia(Saudi Arabia) and find that the whole of the Muslim nations are written in the End-Times scenario.

In the end, this Sunni-Shiite divide will be the cause of the collapse of Islam. Saudi Arabia today officially condemns Hezbollah, yet this condemnation has nothing to do with a sudden love for Israel and the West, but a hatred and mistrust of their Shiite competition, which sees the rise of Shiite Iran and the fear of Iran’s takeover into Iraq will only get Iran closer to Saudi Arabia’s Adam’s apple. Yet this plan to neutralize Iran by aiding Sunni nations is dangerous. The main problem with American policy in the Middle East can be summed up through the latest experience that proves beyond any shadow of doubt that every time the West depended on a Muslim country to neutralize another, the neutralizing country ended up becoming a ravishing beast. Afghanistan was an excellent example—ridding the world of Communist Russia by aiding Afghanistan ended up creating the Taliban, which still funnels the Islamist cancer into neighboring and already nuclear powered Pakistan. Aiding Iraq to neutralize Iran ended up empowering Saddam Hussein to attack its neighbors Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and threatened the oil supply that ended in the first Gulf War. Bringing Arafat into Palestine simply created Gaza’s Hamasistan. Had the West learned from its past experiences that such systems only understand strength and power naive Democratic Party politicians would never be so quick to demand a pullout from Iraq. The West with its policy to aid the lesser of two evils ultimately ended up aiding and abetting the very enemies of Israel and the West. Mediocre western discernment is no match to fourteen centuries of professional Islamic deception. The U.S Armed Saudi Arabia with sophisticated military equipment in hope to protect the supply of oil was a dangerous move, and instead of recognizing the futility of not tapping its own resources to quench its addiction, continues to import the slimy crude from the slime of humanity, ignoring that the only things Arabia exports globally besides oil is Islam. Arabia’s Islam is flourishing in Turkey’s outskirts in full public view and fills Pakistan with madrassas that have now all but buried the remnants of Pakistani and Turkish secularism. I am on record on countless radio interviews stating that Pakistan will oust Pervez Musharraf and will eventually elect an Islamist government. The CIA’s 1997 State Failure Task Force Report identified Turkey as “a nation in danger of collapse. The West needs to come to grips with the realization that Turkey like Iraq is not and can never be a democracy, and any efforts to establish a democracy in these regions will prove fatal since democracy, like the attempts in Iraq, will only be used for electing an Islamic Sharia-driven system.” It will be near impossible for the United States to deal with Iran and Pakistan’s Islamic rise with nuclear weapons, Iraq War, and Turkey’s decline into Islamism simultaneously. The exercise in democratic elections recently has been a disaster—Hamas was elected in Palestine, Shiite regime in Iraq and in Turkey the AKP Islamist party. Then we have the Mahdi obsession, today in Iraq we have at least seven different Mahdist movements, each one believing that the return of the Mahdi is imminent. Timothy Furnish, American scholar of Mahdist movements, recently commented: “No military or political solution is going to work in Iraq until this enormously powerful eschatological element in the region both Sunni and Shiite is addressed.” According to Muhammad the prophet of Islam, “There will be four peace agreements between you and the Romans [Christians]…and will be upheld for seven years.” Western Prophecy analysts pay little attention on how the Muslim world is setup to receive what the Bible documented thousands of years ago—the rise of Antichrist.

Leaving Iraq will also revert it into its previous state and break it into three sectors – Shiite, Sunni and the oil-rich Northern Mosul Province and when all this comes to pass, we shall see the rise of Islamic fundamentalism not from simply being small terrorist organizations, but mutating into fully fledged states similar to the cancer in Iran. Hezbollah in Lebanon is not just a terror organization but is part of the Lebanese government and infrastructure.

History repeats itself, even biblical prophecies have a long term fulfillment—while Iraq, the old lion of Babylon arose and was humbled with its wings plucked by the West. A pullout of Iraq will definitely reignite civil unrest between Shiites and Sunnis accompanied with a desire for Kurds to seek independence in the northern region of Mosul and Kirkuk, which will eventually divide Iraq into its three original federal units - Kurdistan, a Sunni Arab center, and a Shiite south. This three state solution will not work and will further weaken Iraq to allow Iran, the revived bear of Daniel 7:5 which rises on one side (Persia without Media/Kurdistan) to take over control and gulp up Iraq’s three regions in its mouth. Recently Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim Al-Jaafari and eight high-powered cabinet ministers paid an extremely friendly visit to Tehran. This triumph for political Shiism was a blow to the Bush administration. Ayatollah Khomeini, the newly installed theocrat of Iran, pressured the expatriates to form an umbrella organization, the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) one of Iraq's most powerful political parties in hope to eventually take over Iraq. Iran is more clever then what most westerners think. They have created diversions to make everyone focus elsewhere. The Israel-Hezbollah fiasco which bolstered Hezbollah’s strength in the Muslim world by diverting attention away from Iran’s nuclear buildup to focus on Hezbollah launching rockets on northern Israel. Syria did the same by aiding both Hamas and Hezbollah to spark some trouble in order to divert the investigation over the assassination of Lebanon’s prime minister Rafiq Hariri. Hamas also was interested to stop the civil war between Fatah and Hamas. The results of all of this, is devastating to the isolated Christians in the Middle East. An Islamist takeover will ultimately result in the extermination or forced conversion of Christians—The Assyrians in Iraq and the Lebanese Christian community. Turkey will persecute Christians as it did in the past when it executed millions of Armenians and Cypriots and by that Islam will again “overcome the saints.” (Revelation 13:7, Daniel 7:25) Just as we have seen in Iraq, in Pakistan after the eviction of Musharraf, if free democratic elections are sought, more Sharia will be embedded in the system. We have seen this when the Bush Administration insisted that Israel allows the Jerusalem Arabs to vote during the Palestinian elections despite Israel’s warning that Hamas as a result will win. It did. The West and the E.U through invoking democracy invited the fox into the henhouse, unaware that what all foxes are interested in the end is to kill the hens. Turkey, the country that is also interested in controlling Iraq’s Kurdish Mosul Province, has the largest standing army in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and has been viewed by the US and its allies as a bastion against nationalism in Russia and fundamentalism in Iran and other neighboring countries. John Hooper, writing for the Guardiam states: "the scope for conflict, were Turkey, like Iran, to 'go Islamic' would be immense." The simplistic American approach with the war in Iraq and the insistence to pull out of its military will be devastating. The University of Maryland conducted a face-to-face survey of 4,384 Muslims between December 9, 2006 and February 15 2007 (1000 Moroccans, 1000 Egyptians, 1243 Pakistanis, and 1141 Indonesians). Andrew Bostom, author of The Legacy of Jihad and an expert on Islamic Jihad commented on the results: “65.2% of those interviewed—almost two-thirds, hardly a ‘fringe minority’—desired this outcome: ‘To unify all Islamic countries into a single Islamic state or Caliphate’, including 49% of ‘moderate’ Indonesian Muslims. 65.5% of this Muslim sample approved the proposition ‘To require a strict application of Shari’a law in every Islamic country.’
