Totally respect that position. These are crazy times in which we live, and yet, I dare to hope for good and even great things on the other side of this great struggle that we are watching unfold.

Interesting. Thanks for the clarification. It does occur to me that he may be a patsy, perhaps one manipulated by others. Though he pulled the trigger, maybe he is, in a certain sense, a distraction from the actual "powers that be" at work behind the scenes to bring these types of things about. Maybe, I'm just overthinking all of this.....

This I do not know. I didn't get that impression but maybe.....

Thanks for the clarification. I hope this guy's online presence is brought up. He is crazy dangerous,I think. Who even talks like that?

He's certainly a piece of work and dangerous at that. As the left is going off the rails with the insanity of their reactions to all of this,I still had a liberal post in my FB feed but Trump..... I haven't bothered to respond. At this point, if they don't get their need to first tend to their own party before taking a moral high ground, I don't know.I find myself just shaking my head in disbelief with every crazy post and headline that comes to my attention. 🙏

Cenk is another one. Dave Rubin raked him over the coals on Sky News Australia for his incendiary headlines and comments about Charlie Kirk. He led him into a few traps, ensnaring him with his own words. Apparently, Dave and his gay husband of ten years were friends w) Charlie and Erika. They've had dinner together and have even had the discussion about homosexuality and they're still great friends.

The reports are that it doesn't look good for him. His wife and two children were present.

A few thoughts: I've been following this story and from what I can see, GHF was created at the direction of President Trump to be run by American veterans as a means of countering the UN organizations that were aiding Hamas who, among other things had been commandeering the aid trucks and selling aid to the Gazans at exorbitant prices. They have also been stockpiling the aid for themselves. UN orgs have also been providing other material aid to Hamas including but not limited to housing hostages at various times. Perhaps the fact that Jake Woods walked off the job is very telling. Maybe it wasn't working to his advantage the way that he thought it would. Huckabee, With off, and various reporters have been to GHF in Gaza and come back satisfied that it is working well. The plan is to actually significantly increase the number of GHF centers and to increase their hours of operation to 24 hours/day. For the record, I am primarily looking to share additional information because I believe that is important to at least attempt to be objective. I realize that you may see it differently or have additional context that I lack.

By whom? President Trump participated in the decision to create it. Will you blindly believe everything that Hamas says?

Any suggestions for such a smart phone?

I've wondered...

My phone. I don't watch TV. The phone provides more than enough distraction...

The weapons of our spiritual warfare are still the best and most important ones. Intercession (Luke 18:1-8; 1 John 5:14-15)) , worship (2 Chr 20:22-23), the knowledge of God (2 Peter 1:1-11), loving God and loving your neighbor (Matt 22:36-40).

I have begun praying that Americans will being to understand these things without it being costly.

Although, I see where you're coming from, the reality remains that Islam has an agenda of world domination. No external human force or entity manufactured that. The evil embedded in Islam is organic to Islam. Just ask all of the Christians who have suffered atrocities simply for being infidels. They would seek to come here with or without the DS. The DS and Islam are partners of convenience, each having their own agendas. The reason for my post is that we need to be informed concerning all sources of evil that seek to do us harm.

I'm relieved to hear someone else on this site say these things. I have felt so discouraged at times because it seems as if many who frequent this site focus on some sources of evil to the exclusion of other very real dangers. Jihad is real. Thank you

Is it? What I do know is that Karaite Orthodox Jews are Torah only. That would seem to imply to me that their synagogues at least wouldn't have the Talmud. Feel free to look it up concerning that particular branch or Orthodox Judaism. I'd be interested to know what you learn. Also, please consider that if you don't judge all Muslims by the violent portions of the Koran, then perhaps it would be intellectually honest to apply a similar standard to your average Orthodox Jew. None hundred years worth of commentary is an awful lot of commentary. Perhaps you see it differently? Beyond that, I posted this because I have a very deep concern for my country because of the agenda of far more than a few Muslims in this world. We should be informed about that just as much as we should be informed about other rebuild in the world here in America we don't have much of a frame of reference for understanding the Middle Eastern culture. They really do think about life way differently than we do.

As for Jews, Yes there are those who spit on Christians. They are not the norm. Brit b'peh is, in fact, practiced by some not all. Keep in mind that those who do are more likely to be from very insular, sheltered communities who are simply following a tradition. Boys and girls didn't play together or go to the same schools and they aren't even told about s*x until the night before their wedding. It does happen that a woman may think things like, "He's a great guy. All I have to do is live with him."Their understanding of these issues is limited by virtue of being sheltered. (Now: I am in no way justifying the practice, only providing additional context.) It does make for an environment where predatory individuals seek to rise to positions of authority and do evil things. This does not make them all pedos. Many of them are sweet, lovely people. I do not judge all Muslims on the basis of the full Koran but rather on the basis of their life choices. I do the same for Jews. Karaite Jews are Orthodox but not Talmud observant. There are two Talmuds. Their combined volumes span something like 900 years. Literally, no one studies and follows the whole Talmud. Many Jews are either more liberal in their theology and many are secular. The full picture of what the Jewish population looks like is not as cut and dry as some would make it out to be.

Christianity fits not exist apart from the Old Testament. Meant evil things have been done by some in the name of Christianity including but not limited to the Catholic Church. They are not reflective of what it is to be a true follower of Christ and there are many genuine Christians. While I agree with you that there are many self identifying Muslims who choose to live out a peaceful version of island, it is simply not a true reflection of that religion. Peaceful passage are abrogated by later violent passage. Mina Nevisa, author of Miracle of Miracles, is from a prominent Muslim Iranian family, the much doted on youngest daughter of seven children. Her father was one of the top 25 Muslim scholars in the ME and her grandfather started one of the top 3 Muslim universities in the ME. She had to flee for her life when her father found out that she had converted to Christianity. Her cousin was raped and then murdered for doing the same. Because virgins are guaranteed entrance into Paradise, they had to do what they did. She knows the Koran very well and is very clear that true Koranic observance can be summed up in one word: Jihad. Her words. Not mine. I think that we can agree, at least, that while there are those who practice a peaceful version of Islam, it is a dangerous to be ignorant of its darker teachings and requirements.

I'm aware. I'm not dissing those things. I am encouraging you to do a deeper dive into a more comprehensive understanding of Islam. Islam Uncensored by Jeff King is one resource. He interviews, I believe, thirteen experts including historians,a former CIA director, an Iman by the name of Choudari, and many others. He let's the interviewees speak for themselves. Other sources include videos by ex Muslims including those who converted to Islam and then converted back and the persecuted Church. Voice of the Martyrs and International Christian Concern have documented many stories of what happens to Christians in the ME, Far East, and Africa. Another angle would be to look at the treatment of women and girls in Islam. Stories abound about these things. Choose something.

Thank God they did. What Jesus said about that was, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." He died for them too. He spoke of the day when they would recognize him and they will. That said, while I am not angry at people for the way they feel about the Jewish DS, I am deeply concerned by the fact that many seem to ignore the tennets of Islam that call that call for, among other things, the annihilation of the US. They call us the Big Devil/Big Pig for a reason. They are not, in my view, patsies of the DS but rather, these two factions use one another as a means to an end. Finding fault with Jews is one thing. Being ignorant of true Islam is another. Mohammed was worse than Epstein.

So now, I know....😊

Someone just told me that the GE stand for Greatest Ever. The person who introduced me to GAW told me that it stood for God Emporer. I apologize for the misunderstanding. I probably should have left well enough alone. I actually have a lot of confidence in Trump.

I'm sorry that I offended you. That was not my intention. I was told by the person who introduced me to GAW that the GE stood for God Emporer. Again, I truly apologize. It was not at all meant to be a lecture or in any way condescending. I do mean that. It was a reflection of my own heart before God. Perhaps my words came off in a way that I did not intend. Much can be lost in communication when it is typed rather than in person. We live in a day and time in which offense is so prevalent. I hope that you will give me the benefit of the doubt. I am truly truly sorry.

The matter is under investigation. For the record, although I do a certain amount of following Israeli newspapers, I personally CANNOT stand Haaretz. It is positively corrupt. Times of Israel is no friend of Netanyahu. It is, in fact, opposed to him as you can see from the reporting and from the editorials.it is a better option than this rag, however.
