There was a report out on Friday that
has suggested that the Obama administration is considering sanctions
against Israel because of their continued building of housing in
Jerusalem. At the same time the administration is urging congress to
not impose anymore sanctions on Iran, which is trying to become a
nuclear nation, and would clearly become more of a threat in the
middle east than they already are
So if I understand correctly, we are
going to after our one and only true ally, Israel, for building homes
on lands that have belonged to them for something like 3,500 years,
yet reward Iran ,which has stated most clearly that they not only
want to destroy Israel, but destroy us and anyone else who would get
in their way of a world wide caliphate. In what sane universe does
this make any sense?
First of all if Iran continues
unchecked with it's nuclear program, make no mistake they will use it
to make Nuclear weapons and become a bigger threat to the world then
they already are. Think there is trouble now? Wait until they can
force other oil producing nations to bend to their will.
Secondly, and I personally believe that
this is by far worse, it's looks as if we are going to toss Israel
under the bus. This does not bode well for us. History has shown that
those nations that embraced the Jewish people have thrived while
those nations that either booted them out or tried to kill them were
ultimately destroyed.
The truth is that Israel does not need
us they have G-d and He is proving that He has their backs, however
we need them.
The bible tells us very clearly that
G-d blessed Abraham, Issac and Jacob and that their children would be
as numerous as the sands of the sea. That kings and nations would
arise from them but even more importantly was that the world would be
blessed through them.
Gen. 12:3 And
I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee:
and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Gen. 18:18
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation,
and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
Gen. 22:18 And
in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because
thou hast obeyed my voice.
Gen. 26:4 And
I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will
give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the
nations of the earth be blessed;
Gen.27:29 Let
people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy
brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every
one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
Gen 28: 14 And thy seed shall be as
the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and
to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in
thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
In the modern world Israel or Jewish
individuals have been responsible for many breakthroughs in medicine
and medical technology. The cell phone or computer that you are using
right now has Israeli technology in it. Music, literature and art are
all filled with Jewish people and most modern free countries laws
come from the laws given to Israel at Mont Sinai. They have been a
blessing to the world since the beginning and they still continue to
this day.
But what happens when nations toss the
Jews out or tries to destroy them?
Consider Spain, before the Spanish
inquisition, the nation prospered, and for a long time the kings and
queens of Spain resisted the Catholic churches demands that the Jews
be forced to convert. Once they did concede and took all the wealth
of the Jews and either killed or kicked out those who wouldn't
convert, they went from being one of the greatest nations to nothing
and bankrupt. To this day they have never again been a real power in
the world.
Germany was basically destroyed because
of their Fascist hatred of the Jews.
During the last war that Israel had in
Gaza, a Hamas leader,was recorded saying that he was amazed at how
much “their G-d”, meaning Israel's, was protecting them from the
missiles. One report even stated that on a perfectly windless day
that they fired a missile at an civilian area and a strong wind
picked up just before impact and blew so hard that it pushed the
missile into the sea and harmed no one.
We in the United States have
traditionally supported Israel and the Jewish people and have
considered them to be great friends and allies. I believe that we
have been seriously blessed because of it, but history shows us that
if we don't continue to support and defend the Jews and Israel
,eventually the Jews here will see troubles just as they have
historically elsewhere and we ,as a great nation, may find ourselves
in no better a position then Spain or Nazi Germany was.
Gen. 26:4 And
I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will
give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the
nations of the earth be blessed;
