“For from the rising of the sun even to its setting, My Name will be great among the Gentiles, and in every place incense is going to be offered to My Name, and a grain offering that is pure; for My Name will be great among the Gentiles,” says Yahweh Sabaoth. (Malachi 1: 11)

Obama is Wrong about Israel—Again

President Obama is wrong about Israel, again.  This time he’s blaming Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Palestinian President Abbas for “incitement”.

See “Responsibility for ‘incitement’ falls on both Netanyahu and Abbas, Obama says”.

Obama will never admit his error because he thinks he knows everything.  It’s impossible to have an intelligent conversation with anyone who refuses to accept the facts that underlie reality.

You need to look no further than the Palestinian and Hamas charters to see the truth.  Both of them call for Israel’s annihilation.

Listening to Fatah and Hamas leaders as they call on their followers to defend Al-Aqsa mosque with knives is revealing for anyone who will listen.

Watching videos of Muslim clerics while they call on their congregations to kill Jews should convince any thinking person that they are responsible for incitement.

The Temple Mount is the issue that set off the latest round of Palestinian incitement.  All of the other things we are hearing about are just chatter.  Obfuscation is an integral part of the Palestinian plan because it works.  President Obama’s reaction is proof of that.

Netanyahu is not responsible for Palestinian racism and hatred of Jewish people and Israel.  They are taught these things from birth by their political and religious leaders and their parents.  All the blame, every smidgen of it, falls on their shoulders.

Although Obama will never fess up, I suspect that he hates Israel, too.  So much evidence points in that direction that I would be foolish to rule out the possibility.  I think he hates America as well.

See “No country for Jews? An Israeli sadly concludes that ordinary Palestinians are fighting a long war against Israel itself”. It is sad, but it’s the truth.

Also, see “Anti-Israel Sentiment Gathers As Temple Mount Lights the Fuse”.  Clearly, the Temple Mount is the epicenter.  That should surprise no one who believes Yahweh.  He’s separating the wheat from the chaff.

For an interesting take on these developments, watch the video below:

His Name is Yahweh, the website, is a companion of the book His Name is Yahweh.  Both of them explain the importance of God’s Name.

The website is loaded with factual information that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Yahweh is our Savior and that the Messiah is Yahweh.

I hope you will take a few minutes and explore the website.  I also hope you will share it with your friends and family.

It’s time for believers to tell the world about our God by His Name—Yahweh.

Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat—Message from Jerusalem: We Will Not Succumb:

Inflammatory incitement and lies from mosques, Palestinian leaders and the Islamic Movement are resulting in the murder of innocent civilians. To our shock and horror, there is no limit to the cruelty of murderers who use meat cleavers and kitchen knives to attack innocent young children on bikes on their way home from school.

We Jerusalemites are strong, united and determined. We have survived harder times and overcome them. Our security forces and police are combating terrorists in the field and saving lives on a daily basis. People who take responsibility and act quickly and decisively are protecting the innocent.

Donniel Hartman—My Gun and I:

My gun is my barometer. Every few years I feel the need to carry it on me (for which I have a permit). Every few years my sense of safety and that of my family and my fellow citizens is undermined, as the streets on which we walk and live become the frontlines. I feel that I have an inalienable right to live and to do what is necessary to defend myself, my family, and those around me from those who desire to murder us.

I don’t want to live in a world in which everyday citizens need to be responsible for their own safety. My life’s work as a teacher and rabbi is geared to fostering kindness, decency, mutual respect, and hope. There is no part in my soul which wants to harm another human being or see another as an enemy. I am an unrepentant optimist who believes in the inherent decency of humankind and in the possibility of peace and rapprochement between Israel and our Palestinian neighbors.

I hate that I need my gun, but I am grateful for the fact that when I do, I have the ability to carry it and that neither I nor my people are helpless victims anymore. I know that my gun alone will not give me the safety and security for which I yearn. However, the responsibility for terrorism lies within the terrorist and the society which glorifies it. As long as they do, I need my gun.

Miranda Livingston—The Hashtag war:

Whatever tensions are on the rise in Israel, tensions begin to rise simultaneously through the Twitter accounts of Palestinians, Israelis and their respective supporters.

Thousands of young activists are transforming their social media accounts into weapons to fight a massive propaganda war for their global viewers to watch. And with a hot topic like the Arab Israeli conflict, they’ve got one hell of an audience.

Ever since The Arab Spring utilized social media in the spread of their movement, “hashtag activism” has been the catalyst for many grassroots initiatives today, especially in the Middle East. With just the click of a button, one can spread a wide range of facts, figures, and influential opinions. 140 character tweets have sparked movements, and a tool like social media can raise awareness, get youth involved, and spread ideology more rapidly than ever before.

Currently in the region of Israel, some of the most frequently used hashtags are the Arabic words for intifada, Palestine, and uprising, according to trendsmap.com. There are also unique Twitter accounts which slander the state of Israel, praise current terror attacks, and encourage the onslaught of a third intifada.

@ayoub_SWEET tweets in Arabic, “They are the soldiers of Allah and heroes of the earth #Palestine,” regarding the terrorists who have perpetrated recent stabbings and attacks. Maybe @ayoub_SWEET is not so sweet after all.

Alex Ryvchin—Understanding the Language of Murder:

Palestinian cleric Muhammad Salah stands at the pulpit of his mosque in Gaza clutching a large kitchen knife. His hand repeatedly comes down in a violent stabbing motion as he delivers a very specific command: “Form stabbing squads. We don’t want just a single stabber. Attack in threes and fours. Some should restrain the victim, while the others attack him with axes and butcher knives. Cut them into body parts.” He lists Israeli cities where they are to strike: Afula, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

In Jerusalem, two Palestinians board a bus, one opens fire, the other begins hacking at passengers. We have seen images of an Israeli man with a knife lodged in the base of his skull. A clearer connection between incitement and the act could hardly be conceived.

Israelis are coping, as they always have. Meanwhile, a sick and corroded Palestinian society, reared on the sermons of maniacal preachers and increasingly detached from reality, descends into an orgy of criminal violence which is destined to turn in on itself.

Dennis Ross—Distancing from Israel Won’t Help U.S. Relationship with Arab States:

Every president since Reagan has developed the architecture of U.S. security cooperation Israel, reflecting the understanding that Israel’s military assets enhanced our own in the region.

Neither the Bush 41 and Obama administrations had a problem distancing from Israel and having public spats with it. Bill Clinton and Bush 43 adopted a different approach. They instinctively felt it was a mistake to create a gap with Israel. Even when there were disagreements, they sought to keep them private and manage them. They each felt that the U.S. should not give succor to Israel’s enemies. To do so might erode Israel’s deterrent. Moreover, neither thought that distancing from Israel would help the U.S. with the Arabs. They understood, correctly, that our key Arab friends focus first on their own survival.

This pattern is likely to repeat itself: after every president who distanced us from Israel, his successor has moved to remove the appearance of tension. Thus, whether that successor is a Democrat or Republican, we will likely see him or her strike a different public posture toward Israel.

Patrick J. McDonnell—For those left in Syria, life among the ruins takes on a ghostly air:

Talal Barazi is seated in the pleasant outdoor restaurant of a heavily guarded hotel in Homs, or what is left of it.

“Basically, it’s Berlin after World War II,” says Barazi, who as governor of Homs province has seen much of the area under his jurisdiction destroyed by Syria’s civil war. He tries to put up a brave front.

“We have to face reality,” he says. “Some of Homs will be rebuilt, but some will have to be torn down completely. We can’t just look at all the ruins and feel sad and lament what happened.”

Much of his province’s prewar population of 2 million has fled, either to safer parts of Syria or to other countries. For those like Barazi, left behind by choice or necessity, life here has taken on a strange and ghostly air.

A recent swing through government-held areas of Syria by a Times correspondent provided ample evidence of the depopulation of a nation now defined by images of bombed-out buildings, rubble-strewn streets and refugees on the move.

Jeffrey Goldberg—The Paranoid, Supremacist Roots of the Stabbing Intifada:

In September of 1928, a group of Jewish residents of Jerusalem placed a bench in front of the Western Wall of the Temple Mount, for the comfort of elderly worshipers. They also brought with them a wooden partition, to separate the sexes during prayer. Jerusalem’s Muslim leaders treated the introduction of furniture into the alleyway in front of the Wall as a provocation, part of a Jewish conspiracy to slowly take control of the entire Temple Mount.

Many of the leaders of Palestine’s Muslims believed—or claimed to believe—that Jews had manufactured a set of historical and theological connections to the Western Wall and to the Mount, the site of the al-Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock, in order to advance the Zionist project. This belief defied Muslim history—the Dome of the Rock was built by Jerusalem’s Arab conquerors on the site of the Second Jewish Temple in order to venerate its memory (the site had previously been defiled by Jerusalem’s Christian rulers as a kind of rebuke to Judaism, the despised mother religion of Christianity). Jews themselves consider the Mount itself to be the holiest site in their faith. The Western Wall, a large retaining wall from the Second Temple period, is sacred only by proxy.

Mazal Mualem—Arab-Israeli Journalist Blasts Palestinian Leadership for Incitement:

Arab-Israeli journalist Lucy Aharish spoke from the heart on Israel’s Channel 2 TV on Oct. 14: “I don’t see the Arab leadership trying to restore quiet….They are inciting the public even more.”

“What kind of God would allow children to kill innocent victims? What kind of woman with a hijab, who prays to God, would pull a knife out of her bag and try to stab people? You’re encouraging thousands of young people to take to the streets. With your own hands, you’re ruining their future. These children are paying with their lives, with their blood, because of your incitement.”

Yaakov Lappin—Israeli Arms Control Expert: Iranian Long-Range Missile Test a Challenge to U.S.:

The recent announcement of the successful test-firing of a new long-range Iranian missile represents a challenge to the U.S., which is willing to “bend over backward” to justify Tehran’s loose interpretation of restrictions on its nuclear program, said Dr. Emily Landau, head of the Arms Control and Regional Security Program at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv on Wednesday.On Sunday Iran announced the successful test of its Imad surface-to-surface missile, which has a reported range of 1,700 km., a warhead weighing 750 kg., and an accuracy range of 500 meters.

Landau said the Imad “is a leap in terms of its precision, and it is capable of carrying a nuclear payload. Iran is testing the waters in order to establish and ensure rules of the game for its future activities – like inspections at its military facilities, and its presence in Syria.” It has found a compliant U.S., willing to accept its interpretations, she argued. “The Imad missile test has immediate and very significant implications, as a test case for implementation of the recently concluded Iran nuclear deal. It goes directly to the problematic ambiguity and confusion that has been built into the nuclear deal.”

Dennis Ross—Stop Playing Iran and Russia’s Game in Syria:

President Obama has been consistent on Syria. Even when I was in the administration, the president made clear that he did not want to get dragged into the conflict there. The legacy of Iraq weighed heavily on him. He was elected to get us out of Middle East wars, not into them. He was not going to get involved in “someone else’s civil war.”

But what if that civil war produced a humanitarian catastrophe? What if it created a massive refugee crisis? What if it threatened to destabilize neighboring states? What if it gave rise to a group like the Islamic State? These questions were not considered because the fear of being dragged into a quagmire was so great. The costs of action always determined the administration’s approach, not the costs of inaction.

It is nothing new for Obama to challenge those who think the Iranians or Russians are gaining in Syria as they act and we do the minimum. In March 2014, he said, “I am always darkly amused by this notion that somehow Iran has won in Syria….This was their one friend in the Arab world…and it is now in rubble. It’s bleeding them because they’re having to send in billions of dollars….They’re losing as much as anyone. The Russians [too] find their one friend in the region in rubble and delegitimized.”

Ariel Ben Solomon—Russia vs. Sunni Islam:

The Russians believe they are in an existential battle with Sunni Islam, Harold Rhode, a former adviser at the Pentagon, told the Jerusalem Post. “One third of Moscow is Muslim,” said Rhode, some of them illegal residents. Russians have a lower birthrate than the country’s Muslim birthrate – which is also declining. One of the ways the Russian government is dealing with this is by promoting conversion of its Muslims to Shi’ism. Within this context, explains Rhode, we can understand Russia’s cooperation with the Shi’ite alliance led by Iran.

Uzay Bulut—Kurds Ask for Peace, Turkey Attacks:

• Just after the bombing attack in Ankara, Turkish authorities said that the Islamic State (ISIS) was responsible. But in response, Turkish jets did not bomb ISIS; they bombed the Kurdish PKK, who are fighting ISIS.
• Where were the special forces and the police, so quick to shoot Kurds but not protect them? The police delayed medical help, and instead attacked with tear gas the people that were helping the wounded, in an effort to disperse them.
• “The PKK ceasefire means nothing for us. The operations will continue without a break.” — Senior Turkish security official.
• “Ankara is the capital of Turkey. If a bird flies here, the state knows about it. … There was a rally of 100,000 people but no security precautions were taken. Look at their own rallies: the security precautions start 10 streets away.” — Selahattin Demirtas, co-chairman of the Kurdish HDP Party.
• Many massacres have been carried out against the Kurds. None of the perpetrators has ever been punished — in those massacres, the planners were the state authorities themselves.

Ingrid Carlqvist—Sweden Close to Collapse:

• If the wave of migrants keeps coming, in 10-15 years, Swedes will be a minority in their own country. That there is, in fact, an exchange of populations going on, should be clear in any sober assessment.
• The final consequence of… Sweden’s immigration policy is that the economy will collapse — because who is going to pay for it all? And economic breakdowns, once they happen, always happen very fast.” — Lars Hedegaard.
• In the last two weeks, more than 1,000 “unaccompanied refugee children” have arrived from Germany via ferry; more than half of them have now vanished and are listed as missing.
• For the last few weeks, the central train station in Sweden’s third largest city, Malmö, has been overrun with migrants; the volunteers that for the first few days showed up with food, water and clothes now seem to have lost interest.
• It will not be long until the Swedes realize that the state will not look after them. The country that just 20 years ago was considered one of the safest and most affluent in the world, is now in danger of becoming a failed state.

Blessings in the Book of Revelation is a book that you need to read, especially now.  There are blessings throughout the Scriptures but Revelation is the only book in the Bible actually containing a specific blessing for reading it. It’s repeated twice, once at the beginning and again at the end. This is the reason that I believe Revelation should be the first step toward studying biblical prophecy. Though not easy to do, Revelation can be broken down and understood by anyone, not just the academic elite. So, Revelation’s blessings are for everyone.  Click here to order the eBook.  Click here to order the paperback.
