Esau and the Palestinians:
Yes, we are all living through perplexing days. It is always time to pray. This week I want to share with you the documentary entitled: Esau and the Palestinians. It gave me new insights into the 4,000 year old roots of this present raging war in Gaza, which is reverberating among the nations. The noise is deafening. We know, The Eternal One will always have a people Israel, this we know. I guess what troubles me is the willful ignorance globally. It aims at destroying Israel.
Disclaimer: In the film we are presented with the producers interpretation of how Israel will be protected from the antiChrist and the Second Coming.
The International Criminal Court:
South Africa has taken Israel to the ICC with accusations of genocide. Former head of the Supreme Court will stand in Israel’s defence. Pray for truth to prevail. Israel a moral army and has taken precautions to save civilian life. Yes, the loss of any innocent soul is a tragedy. Yes, we expect ugly accusations ignoring Israel’s very careful execution of military strategy. They have extensive proof in film footage of Hamas’ military use of hospitals, health clinics, schools, kindergartens, Islamic Mosques, Gazan homes plus UNRWA (The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees) facilities in which to stage strategic warfare against Israel, build weapons factories, and weapons depots. We pray for heavenly armies to confuse the enemy. May the final be by Divine intervention.

Jerusalem Post Jan 9th 2024 by Allgemeiner
“Angry anti-Israel protesters in New York City took to the streets of lower Manhattan, where they blocked access to drivers on four bridges. This led to hundreds of arrests and a miserable commute for thousands. They blocked traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge, Williamsburg Bridge, and Holland Tunnel for over two hours Monday morning. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) said 325 people were arrested, with many facing misdemeanor charges.”
“First the Saturday people and then the Sunday people!” This phrase was and is a favorite of radical Muslims wanting to rid the world of Jews and Christians.
Canada’s National Post:
“Since at least New Year’s Eve, the Toronto police have assisted in overseeing daily closures of the bridge (Avenue Road), reportedly to preserve the safety of “demonstrators” and “counter-demonstrators. Men clad in keffiyehs have led Muslim prayer services right in the middle of roads approaching the bridge. Crowds carrying Palestinian flags and placards comparing Zionism to Naziism have blockaded streets and intersections surrounding the overpass. Demonstrators have set off red and green smoke bombs and kept up a steady stream of honking and bullhorn-amplified chants of “free, free Palestine.”
“Due to public safety concerns, the Avenue Road Bridge will be closed,” read the Toronto Police’s most recent update, issued early morning Jan 10th 2024.”
I saw the film footage. The police just stood around watching … doing nothing?
A Canadian volunteering in Israel speaks:
“I volunteered for 3 months and help serve hungry soldiers. These guys are the best of the best, every day may be their last. I love them and am so proud to stand with them. You must understand in this fight, these brave men and women of the IDF (Israeli Defence Forces) stand between us and Hamas! We Canadians just don’t get how serious this war is. The stakes are higher than most people in North America image or care to know. These soldiers are fighting not only for Israel, but for us in America and Canada. They’re the last line of defence before the terrorists come for us. The Palestinian Authority says once they liquidate the Jews, they’re coming for the Christians and by that they mean North America. They want to set up a world wide Muslim caliphate … and they mean business!
The hardline Hamas terrorists want to die for the cause. Martyrdom is the only guarantee of eternal life with Allah. Hamas is a Hebrew word that appears 60 times in the Old Testament. The word is Semitic in origin even though the terrorists mistranslate it to mean Resistance Movement. The original meaning of Hamas is found in Hebrew and means violence, destruction and false witness. War is a way of life here that I have experienced 24 hours a day since my arrival. It changes your world view and causes you to rethink your reason for being here at such a time as this. It also causes you to think where you would spend eternity if today was your last day on earth, as it unfortunately will be not only for some IDF soldier, but also for the terrorists in the tunnels beneath Gaza and civilians. We in the West get caught up with ’the stuff’. Most of us do; but to die with the all the toys means nothing if we haven’t left behind more than we’ve taken. To put it another way, ….we have no idea how well off we are in the free world.
‘The Jews are liberated, but we are not free’ is a line I read the other day visiting Yad Vashem, the National Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem. Yad Vashem literally means ‘a memorial and a name. In the Hall of Names, every Jewish victim of the Holocaust in Europe is being added and recorded as they are still being identified. The museum itself is massive and as you walk through it builds the story from 1933-1945. To see it is to live through it and it breaks your heart. I stood beneath that dome filled with photographs of holocaust victims. It makes you cry.
I truly hope you understand. Israel does not want you to ask for a ceasefire. A ceasefire will only give the enemy time to reload.
I leave you with a question in closing. ‘Why is it that Israel is the only nation in the world that has to defend itself for defending itself?’” Lorne
I hope this has brought you new understanding of the roots of this hatred between these two brothers. Send me your comments. Thank you to those who write. Its
Great to hear your news too. Thank you for the encouragement I so many ways.
