Father of soldier: 'He was covered in blood'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 5/30/16 | Ari Yashar

The father of the 19-year-old soldier who was stabbed and lightly wounded by an Arab terrorist in Tel Aviv on Monday evening later reenacted the moments of horror.

The father told Maariv that he brought his son inside the house and then his neighbor called up Magen David Adom (MDA). He recalled, "I just wanted to stop the bleeding. We heard that the ambulance was downstairs, and we met the paramedics."

Describing his son's account of the attack, the father said, "he (my son) said that he returned from the army, he goes every day from the train by foot to Nahalat Yitzhak. When he arrived at the corner of Yigal Alon, he heard a shout behind him, and then he felt two stabs to his head."

"He turned around, saw the terrorist, pushed him with force and started to run home. The terrorist entered the stairwell, threw the screwdriver, and a group of people caught him and gained control over him," ... .....

Very vivid account. Very white of the civilians to only gain control of the terrorist. Pity they didn't lynch him.

Israel is fighting a war in its own front yard. Something America has been spared for 150 years. Unless you live in Chicago, of course.

We, too are fighting a war in our front yard. The problem is, only one side is fighting.

Each passing day, I am surprised and relieved that Israel still exists, and did not get bombed into oblivion overnight.
They are literally surrounded by crazed jackals of hateful governments, consumed with the hate of Jews and other non-Muslims.

God will not let that happen.

He has a covenant with Israel and Israel belongs to Him.

There will be a battle in the not to distant future where many nations will gather together to attack Israel and it will not be pretty.

God is very protective of the Israeli nation because he created it for his purposes.

Stay tuned as the daily happenings across the planet become more and more synchronized with Biblical prophecy.
