"I have a compromise: Israel will retreat to its 1949 borders when the Muslims get out of the Balkins and Constantinople and retreat back to thr 1450 boarders." I have a better idea - the new borders of Israel: Photobucket

In the short term this will be disastrous, in the long term......if the second coming is not within a few short years, we are set for some very black decades under the global tyranny of the Muslims.

I have had believers in a near term return of Christ, say "why worry about this stuff, (worldwide politics and war) "things will just be what they will be". It is hard to get them to understand, that standing up for God, standing up for his nations, Israel and the U.S., and STANDING in the breech in His stead, is what we must do. There is nothing God hates more than someone who will not do for themselves. He didn't say, I will fight your battles for you, so go on partying and making love. He COMMANDS us to STAND UP FOR OURSELVES, HAVE FAITH, PRAYERFULLY ASK HIS COUNCIL, and He will stand with us. If we do not stand up, neither will he stand with us.

I STAND FOR ISRAEL and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Both houses of Israel, truth be told. As Jeremiah Jr has been seen to posit on this very site. Ezekiel 37:16 God will join the tribes as signified as One stick, Judah, Levi and Benjamin being one, the Jews. With the other tribes represented by Ephraim of the other ten tribes as another. God himself will join them together as One stick, or nation again. You see the current nation Israel, is not all of the sons of Jacob, there are others that are lost in history. The U.S. is full of many of them, as are other nations that follow a special calling. I know people are kept from seeing the truth, until it is time. That time is near, and to know this truth, and not speak it is a denial of faith. Wake up O HOUSE OF ISRAEL, the land spoiled with rivers, a land of milk and honey. This very land we now call home. Our brethren in the nation Israel, is about to be fallen upon by enemies, and our "King" has betrayed them even unto death. What say ye all?

The Netanyahu AIPAC speech

It’s worth watching in full, but here are some of the highlights.

On Jews and Israel:

The future of the Jewish state can never depend on the goodwill of even the greatest of men. Israel must always reserve the right to defend itself.

The connection between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel cannot be denied. The connection between the Jewish people and Jerusalem cannot be denied.

The Jewish people were building Jerusalem 3,000 year ago and the Jewish people are building Jerusalem today. Jerusalem is not a settlement. It is our capital.

On the peace process:

Last year, I spoke of a vision of peace in which a demilitarized Palestinian state recognizes the Jewish state. Just as the Palestinians expect Israel to recognize a Palestinian state, we expect the Palestinians to recognize the Jewish state. In the past year, my government has removed hundreds of roadblocks, barriers and checkpoints in the West Bank. As a result, we have helped spur a fantastic economic boom there. Finally, we announced an unprecedented moratorium on new Israeli construction in Judea and Samaria.

This is what my government has done for peace.What has the Palestinian Authority done for peace? Well, they have placed preconditions on peace talks, waged a relentless international campaign to undermine Israel’s legitimacy, and promoted the notorious Goldstone Report that falsely accuses Israel of war crimes.

On Israel and America’s relationship:

For decades, Israel served as a bulwark against Soviet expansionism.Today it is helping America stem the tide of militant Islam. Israel shares with America everything we know about fighting a new kind of enemy. We share intelligence and we cooperate in countless other ways that I am not at liberty to divulge. This cooperation saves American lives.

Our soldiers and your soldiers fight against fanatic enemies that loathe our common values. In the eyes of these fanatics, we are you and you are us. … Militant Islam does not hate the West because of Israel. It hates Israel because of the West Because it sees Israel as an outpost of freedom that prevents them from overrunning the Middle East. When Israel stands against its enemies, it stands against America’s enemies.

Politico has the transcript. Watch or read the speech in full. It’s worth it.

“He wants - as part of his “legacy” - to have a Palestinian state created on his watch.....”

When the British broke the old Ottoman mid-east Protorate up in the 40’s-50’s they did indeed creat a Palestinian state.....it’s called Jordan whose population is ~90% Palistinian.

Israel, vis a vis the Mideast, is like the husband in a divorce proceeding. The assets have been split, and now the wife wants half of the husband’s remainder.

Obama is a historical fool....... It’s not a laughing matter for either the world, for Isreal, nor the USA. Only a serious defeat for this jester in 2012 by a Conservative , backed by a new elected and super majority committed Conservative Congress and Senate will be able to undo all the damage our Communist in Chief has been able to inflict upon us.......I fear for our nation, and that is ample motivation to press for the needed electoral results.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I am sick and tired of the left’s destroying the USA in persuit of a foreign and failed political Philosophy.

“...claiming that the US mustn't distinguish between its allies and its foes...”

It's good thing the US never practiced this ridiculous notion in the past. I can't imagine treating the Axis Powers with the same affinity we did Great Britain.

If the palis had wanted peace, they coulda had it a long time ago. They want money, protection money. They are running a racket. “Pay us or we will blow up such and such. Pay us again or we will blow up such and such. pay us again or we will blow up such and such.” And nobody learns.

Palis are liars. There is no one with Pali authority to “settle.” Anyone who takes their garbage without a large grain of salt is doing so to transfer Palis some of America’s wealth.

Palis do not deserve any American wealth. They have no “plan” to better anyone’s lives. This is just a huge ripoff for whoever is top Pali dog at the given moment a ransom payment is made.

Bam Bam is simply transferring American wealth to terrorists and criminal, plain and simple.

Hard to find anything to disagree with in that statement except to say that I find it difficult to believe that he is the mastermind. And even though Jarrett may be “his brain,” it’s certainly not her. Who gives BHO his marching orders? Who calls the plays and strategy?

Conceptually and substantively, Obama abandoned the US alliance with Israel. The rest of his words - security arrangements, demilitarized Palestinian state and the rest of it - were nothing more than filler to please empty-headed liberal Jews in America so they can feel comfortable signing checks for him again.

Lol, she's not beating around the bush there. And there seems to be little evidence that would refute her observation.

On a different level, it reminds me of the “Justice Brothers” (Sharpton/Jackson) and DNC rackets.

I have a compromise: Israel will retreat to its 1949 borders when the Muslims get out of the Balkins and Constantinople and retreat back to thr 1450 boarders.

And as a goodwill gesture, the Muslims could return the ancient Jewish city of Medina to the Jews.
