“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)

Cliff Kincaid—The Moscow-Washington-Tehran Axis Of Evil:
The conventional wisdom is that Vladimir Putin has blindsided Barack Obama in the Middle East, catching the U.S. off-guard. It’s another Obama “failure,” we’re told. “Obama administration scrambles as Russia attempts to seize initiative in Syria,” is how a Washington Post headline described it. A popular cartoon shows Putin kicking sand in the faces of Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry on a beach.
The conventional wisdom is driven by the notion that Obama has the best of intentions but that he’s been outmaneuvered. What if his intention all along has been to remake the Middle East to the advantage of Moscow and its client state Iran? What if he knows exactly what he’s doing? Too many commentators refuse to consider that Obama is deliberately working against U.S. interests and in favor of the enemies of the U.S. and Israel.
In his U.N. address, Obama said, “As President of the United States, I am mindful of the dangers that we face; they cross my desk every morning. I lead the strongest military that the world has ever known, and I will never hesitate to protect my country or our allies, unilaterally and by force where necessary.”
This is laughable. We still have a strong military, but the inevitable conclusion from what’s recently transpired is that he doesn’t want to protect the interests of the U.S. or its allies in the Middle East. This is not a “failure,” but a deliberate policy.

SnyderTalk Comment: This article may seem farfetched, but it’s worth considering.
Many have said that Obama’s motives are evil. Are they?
Some say it’s likely. Others say it’s absolutely true. Still others say it can’t be true.
What do you think?
This is something I know: Obama was opposed to same-sex marriage until after the 2012 election when he couldn’t run for office again.
Is that just a coincidence?

David Goldman—Fear and Loathing on the Temple Mount:
Anyone who doubts the power of prayer should consider the power of Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount, the Jerusalem hill where the First and Second Temples of ancient Israel once stood. It’s still a Jewish world, at least from the Indus to the Atlantic; everyone else just lives in it. That is what an extraterrestrial observer would conclude from the hysteria over a modest Jewish presence on the site.
A Palestinian law student last week murdered a young Israeli father and a local rabbi in Jerusalem’s Old City last week, the killer’s father declared: “He defended the honor of 1.5 billion Muslims all over the world,” according to the Washington Post. The murderer, Mohannad Halabi, also wounded the man’s wife and infant daughter, and killed a local rabbi who came to the family’s aid.
Halabi had written on his Facebook page, “What’s happening to our holy places, what’s happening to our mothers and sisters in al-Aqsa mosque? We are not the people who accept humiliation. Our people will revolt.” The killer’s father, Shafeek Halabi, declared “I am so proud of him” for having defended Muslim honor. Self-styled “guardians” of the Temple Mount have stockpiled stones and firecrackers in the al-Aqsa Mosque itself to throw at Jewish visitors as well as Israeli police, who have arrested violent protesters on several occasions in recent months.
Haaretz Editorial—Temple Mount Is the Issue, Not Terror:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a change in policy Friday in response to terrorism in Jerusalem and the northern West Bank. As part of the new policy, the demolition of terrorists’ homes will be expedited, the number of detentions without trial will be increased, instigators will be arrested and banned from relevant neighborhoods, and security forces will be beefed up in Jerusalem and the West Bank.
But this policy isn’t new. The announcement is almost an exact replica of the one Netanyahu made after the attack on a synagogue in Jerusalem last November, when four worshippers and a policeman were killed. Then too he ordered house demolitions, a ramping-up of security forces and the arrest of instigators. Then too he called Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas the main culprit.
[…]
Netanyahu must take steps like showing seriousness about maintaining the status quo on the Temple Mount, or like bringing in observers – Palestinian or international, in uniform or plainclothed – to the site. But Netanyahu won’t be the leader to extricate Israel from its diplomatic stalemate and stop the occupation – which is the only way to achieve calm, reduce terror and produce a normal future for Israelis.
SnyderTalk Comment: I wanted you to see this editorial. Haaretz is the Israeli equivalent of the New York Times. They may be Jewish, but Yahweh is far from their thoughts.
Daniel Tauber—For Zion’s Sake: Why Israel fought the inevitable Iran deal:
His tone harsh and scolding, in his recent speech before the UN General Assembly Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu implicitly accepted defeat in the battle to prevent the nuclear accord with Iran.
Acknowledging that “this deal” was “mov[ing] forward” he called on the international community to enforce the deal and announced that Israel will be “watching closely” and will act to defend itself, notwithstanding General Assembly resolutions. He also moved to repair US-Israel relations with the usual warm references to the US and the Obama administration.
With the battle over the nuclear accord ended, one might wonder why it was fought at all, and why even while accepting the reality of defeat, Netanyahu continued to lambaste it.
Many observers likened the very public fight over the deal to AIPAC’s fight to halt the sale of Airborne Warning Control Systems (AWACS) to Saudi Arabia by the Reagan administration.
Aaron David Miller—What If Israel Had Given Up the Golan Heights? A Lesson for Syria’s Crisis.:
As Syria continues to be ravaged with no signs that the end of its crisis will produce a unified and stable (let alone pro-Western) Arab state, I wonder from time to time what would have happened had U.S. efforts succeeded in negotiating an Israeli-Syrian peace agreement in the 1990s.
For me, this is more than a remote thought experiment. For almost two decades, under Republican and Democratic administrations, I was part of a U.S. negotiating team that tried to reach such a deal. But had we succeeded, the results might have been catastrophic for Israel and for the U.S.
Interest in an Israeli-Syrian peace deal was bipartisan: U.S. presidents including Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush expressed varying degrees of interest. So did Israeli Prime Ministers Yitzhak Rabin, Ehud Barak, and Benjamin Netanyahu. Several U.S. presidents and Israeli leaders were fascinated with longtime Syrian President Hafez al-Assad and considered him a strategic thinker with whom one might do business. The collapse of the Soviet Union generated some interest from Mr. Assad in looking to the U.S. as a possible partner.
Patrick Flanagan—Putin vows to protect Christians worldwide:
As part of his manifesto for the upcoming Russian presidential elections, candidate Vladimir Putin has promised to add the protection of Christian communities across the globe to the duties of his foreign office.
Following the meeting with Patriarch Kirill, The Patriarch was accused of using his power to meddle in political affairs, yet defended himself saying “We would like to talk to [Putin] as the prime minister, but first of all as with a candidate for the presidential post in our country who, of course, has more chance than anybody else to turn this candidacy into the real post”
SnyderTalk Comment: Always look a gift horse in the mouth.
Sam Dorman—Christie: ‘After 40 Years, We Allowed Russia Back in Middle East’:
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said that the U.S. made a major mistake by not leading the fight against ISIS, providing Russia with the opportunity to intervene in Syria.
“After 40 years, we allowed Russia back into the Middle East, and now, who are they partnered with? Iran,” Christie said Sunday on This Week With George Stephanopoulos, “America’s gotta re-establish its presence in that area. We should be the ones leading the fight on ISIS,” the Republican presidential candidate added.”
“Just when you think it can’t get worse, it does. And just when you think this foreign policy can’t cost more to the American people, it does.”
“We don’t need to be friends with Vladimir Putin and we don’t need to be worried about whether he’s in quagmire. After 40 years, we allowed Russia back into the Middle East. And now who are they partnered with? Iran.”
Robin Wright—Iran’s Javad Zarif on Russia and Peace in Syria:
Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, is in demand these days. On the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly, he shook hands with President Obama and met twice with Secretary of State John Kerry. (Zarif and Kerry have been nominated, jointly, for the Nobel Peace Prize, scheduled to be announced this week, for their two-year negotiations on the Iran nuclear deal.) Zarif hosted both Republican and Democratic officials from previous U.S. Administrations, breakfasted with editors, huddled with American nuclear experts, and briefed the Times editorial board. He also squeezed in a session with the University of Denver, his alma mater; the event was streamed live from the Waldorf-Astoria, because Iranian diplomats are not allowed to travel beyond a twenty-five-mile zone around New York.
The day before Zarif returned to Tehran, I spoke with him at the residence of Iran’s U.N. ambassador, on Fifth Avenue, near the Metropolitan Museum. The interview has been condensed and edited for clarity.
New York Post Editorial—Israel-bashing just came back to haunt the State Department:
Memo to the State Department: It’s time to think twice about knee-jerk criticism of Israel. You never know when it might turn around and bite you.
Just that happened when Associated Press reporter Matt Lee caught deputy State spokesman Mark Toner by surprise at a briefing this week. Lee asked about Saturday’s US bombing of a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, that left 22 patients and staff dead.
The administration has called the attack a tragic mistake. But Lee recalled Israel’s August 2014 shelling of a UN school in Gaza — which State immediately labeled “disgraceful,” adding: “The suspicion that militants are operating nearby does not justify strikes that put at risk the lives of so many innocent civilians.”
Lee asked: Does that policy still hold?
Amos Harel—Israel’s Vanishing Red Lines in Syria:
Gen. Nikolai Bogdanovsky, the Russian military’s deputy chief of general staff, paid a rare visit to Israel on Tuesday. It’s not exactly a friendly visit: Although Russia’s relationship with Israel has significantly improved since the 1960s and 1970s — when the Soviet Union was the Arab world’s weapons supplier and the Arab-Israeli conflict was seen as just another front in the Cold War — Israel will always doubt Moscow’s intentions in the region. In those rare instances when Israeli defense officials or even ex-generals travel to Russia, they leave their laptops and mobile phones at home, fearing Russian attempts at surveillance and hacking.
But Israel and Russia have pressing business to discuss, which outweighs the mutual mistrust. Russia’s game-changing intervention in the Arab world — its decision to deploy dozens of Sukhoi jet fighters to northern Syria, along with several anti-aircraft systems and hundreds of soldiers — has taken the Middle East by surprise. After four-and-a-half years of bloodshed and stalemate, Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad is suddenly in a position that could allow him to secure the fate of his regime for a few more years.
Burak Bekdil—The Politics of Lies:
A flight from Kuala Lumpur to Istanbul will usually take around 11 hours. All the same, politically, Turkey and Malaysia are not so distant. The Turkish-Malaysian political parallels are crucial in understanding political Islam.
Back in 2013, President (then Prime Minister) Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s chief advisor, Yigit Bulut, said that he would be “willing to die for Erdogan.” He added: “There are millions like me.” The statement was not shocking news in a country where Erdogan fans had the habit of walking around in shrouds — in expression of their willingness to die for the supreme leader.
Two years later, the same leader-fetish has emerged in Malaysia. Rizuan Abd Hamid, a local leader in Kuala Lumpur of Malaysia’s ruling party, UMNO (United Malays National Organization), said that he was willing to fight for Prime Minister Najib Razak “until his last breath.”

Exodus 25
23 “You shall make a table of acacia wood, two cubits long and one cubit wide and one and a half cubits high. 24 You shall overlay it with pure gold and make a gold border around it. 25 You shall make for it a rim of a handbreadth around it; and you shall make a gold border for the rim around it. 26 You shall make four gold rings for it and put rings on the four corners which are on its four feet. 27 The rings shall be close to the rim as holders for the poles to carry the table. 28 You shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, so that with them the table may be carried. 29 You shall make its dishes and its pans and its jars and its bowls with which to pour drink offerings; you shall make them of pure gold. 30 You shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before Me at all times.”

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.
