Breaking down just how badly Obama’s UN action will damage Israel
Canada Free Press ^ | 12/26/16 | Dan Calabrese

Posted on 12/26/2016 9:07:20 AM PST by Sean_Anthony

The UN resolution could subject settlers and Israel officials to criminal sanctions, while creating pretexts for more terrorist attacks

Everyone has heard by now that Obama “threw Israel under the bus” or whatever expression you want to use, by refusing to veto Friday’s UN resolution condemning settlements in the West Bank and other territories captured from the Palestinians. Indeed he did, but it’s worse than that.

This is not a mere resolution of condemnation. This is a theoretically enforceable piece of international law that the UN has been trying to pass for decades, always coming up short because of the certainty - until Barack Obama - that the United States would veto the it. Now that it’s been passed, Israel and its officials could be in serious jeopardy in a variety of ways.

Do YOU want your tax money to support these anti God bigots?

The UN must be evicted from America.

I think it can be reversed. Nobody plays hardball like Trump.

It’s time to end this charade. The UN is nothing but a forum for Islamists and totalitarians.

Give the bastards 30 days to clear out of New York, then seize the building and redevelop as private office space.

The 1967 lines are ABSOLUTELY indefensible for Israel. There is no way Israel can survive under those borders. The terrorists would sit on the Golan’s and drop artillery round after artillery round down on Israel. To hell with Obama and the stinking UN. I stand with Israel on this one. What ever God in heaven decides to do to America for this outrageous abandonment of Israel, America deserves. God says clearly in Genesis 12:3 that He will “bless those that bless thee (meaning Israel) and He will CURSE those who curse thee.” God is going to hammer America for this. The “party” is over. Vengeance and judgment is now over America’s head. The next big “happening” in this nation will be God delivering His judgment.

62.5% of all of Palestine’s GDP comes from US government aid - while only 3.5% of Israel’s does. Trump has repeatedly said that as soon as he is sworn into into office on Jan 20th he will end all the US aid to Palestine ... and give it to Israel instead.

So it doesn’t matter what the UN rules on, by April Palestine will have run out of money and will cease to exist. Israel can then build wherever it likes.

Will Muslim countries make up the cash difference and so save Palestine? No because fighting and killing other Muslims in Iraq, Syria and Yemen is more important to them than saving Palestine.

Even more; all of Israel’s main trading partners - India, US, China, EU, Russia, Turkey and Egypt have all said they would ignore any UN ban on trading with Israel.

This time next year “Palestine” will be nothing more than a dim memory.

Maybe Trump knows someone who can build some high-rises for the settlers in the interim. I always understood that settlement housing was until the settlers got jobs and moved up.

The left who want this including O and HRC and the wackos who vote for them are in great danger of losing their evil lives in fighting the one true and living God who is bring Israel back into the land for fulfillment of Bible Prophecy on the 2nd advent of Jesus Christ. They are fighting against One true and living God and His Christ and are fulfilling prophecy of Jesus by their evil doings,as He warned believers of.
[Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. 3And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.]

Zechariah 12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.

5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.

6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

7 The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.

8 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.

9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart;

14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.

I think the exact opposite will happen. Israel will thrive as she has since the post WWII period while Islamism will continue to erode (or be killed off, take your pick).

And the best part? Obama, in his attempt to be too clever by half and stick a shiv between the shoulder blades of the Jewish State, will instead lead to the biggest shake up of the UN since its inception.

Look for Trump and Congress to defund and possibly even withdraw.

Jesus Is Lord of all and will return to be King of all when the Father sends Him to collect His saints into heaven in the translation of the body of Christ, a promise that will lead to the antichrist and his evil people warring against
God and Christ. Even so, come Lord Jesus, rule and reign in the midst of all thine enemies worldwide in Israel according to the power and will. Let mankind take their side for and against the government of God , the rule of King Jesus for one thousand years on the earth. Lord Jesus be praised for His mercy and His wonderful works to the children of men by putting the evil doers out of the earth before He comes to rule the earth from Israel, His beloved.

Exactly. If they were ‘captured’, it was in self defense from the Jordanians, Syrians and Egyptians who had amassed troops in those territories, and were preparing to illegally invade and destroy Israel.

I would tell the UN to stuff it. The UN has no right to tell a sovereign nation what it can do and where its borders are.

[[The 1967 lines are ABSOLUTELY indefensible for Israel. There is no way Israel can survive under those borders.]]

Exactly- you hit exactly on the seriousness of this resolution right there- The muslim world knowsd she wil lbe defenseless- and this is the ONLY reason they have fought Israel tooth and nail to get this border-

[[What ever God in heaven decides to do to America for this outrageous abandonment of Israel, America deserves. ]]

IF all of America were behind the treason- then yes we would deserve it- but let’s hope there is at the very least- a large enough remnant of believers who stand with Israel that God will spare both Israel and the US for the traitorous actions of the disgusting liberals and their radical islamic cohorts-

[[God says clearly in Genesis 12:3 that He will “bless those that bless thee (meaning Israel) and He will CURSE those who curse thee.” ]]

Let us hope and pray that God was talking about cursing individuals and not entire nations in this verse=-
