Brethren, we here at know that many people are bored with the occupation in the Gaza Stripe or whatever it's called.

With all the bombing that Israel has engaged in, you would think that they should have solved the problem by now. But people are persistent when it comes to refusing God's Will and there are still people who think that somehow the people of Gaza are "the good guys" while the people of Israel are "the bad guys".

Nothing could be farther from the truth. They are both "bad guys" whom Almighty God is moving around like little chess pieces making sure that Our Lord Jesus returns soon.

Here is a link to an opinion piece that really gets it wrong. Some weird, little androgynous comedian called for prayers to "Free Palestine" AND to "Free the hostages." He also mentioned something about a dog. . . As I said, this guy is weird.

What we need to remember is that all that land in so-called "Palestine" belongs to Israel, but not really. It's all Jesus' once and future stomping grounds and anyone who reads and reveres the Bible knows that.

So prayers asking God to "Free Palestine" are ineffective and possibly annoying to Jesus during this important time as He gets ready for the next election here in America.

Nothing and no one is free in this world except the gift of Christ's Blood. Accept this gift with total obedience and servitude to Jesus and only then will you be free.

I can only add this to your wise post, Sister Handmaiden. Israel says, "God gave us this land." The A Rabs say, "We were here first." Neither acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God and was given dominion to decide who gets what land. I'm quite sure Jesus eventually will ask Landover Baptist to establish a Baptist country with white males in charge.

I think if I could sum up the Middle East in two words it would be Life's not fair, get used to it. If only this simple advice were followed by the A-rabs all the killing could end tomorrow. It's all in the historic Peace to Prosperity agreement worked out by Jared Kushner.

Jared Kushner: Palestinians Have Never Done Anything Right in Their Sad, Pathetic Lives

"The Palestinian leadership have to ask themselves a question: Do they want to have a state? Do they want to have a better life? If they do, we have created a framework for them to have it, and we’re going to treat them in a very respectful manner. If they don’t, then they’re going to screw up another opportunity like they’ve screwed up every other opportunity that they’ve ever had in their existence."

“If you look at the original proposal, the Arab Peace Initiative, that was an eight-line proposal, it was a good faith proposal, past proposals have been two to three pages, this is an over 80-page proposal with a map, never been done before”

His 80 page plan(!) with a map(!) was unheeded - ergo - they screwed up. You can't plan for someone not following your plan, especially the enemy - that would have been on page 81 if they had let Jared write one more page.

Why can't the A-rabs go back to wherever the Heck they came from?

If Israel attacks you under guidance from The Lord, The Bible has guidance on what to do. Yes, as always, the cost is high, and, in this case it does not involve iron chariots.

You will recall from 2 Kings 3 that the king of Moab rebelled against the king Jehoram of Israel. So king Jehoram got in contact with Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, and asked if Jehoshaphat would help with regime change in Moab and Jehoshaphat agreed. Then he did the same thing with the king of Edom

They were having a hard time marching to Moab so they asked if there were a prophet around. And someone pointed out that Elisha was the local mouth piece of God.

They made an appointment but Elisha told them that he needed a bit a music to concentrate, so they booked a minstrel. When the minstrel played, the hand of the LORD came upon Elisha and he said that the LORD would deliver the Moabites into their hands if they followed His instructions.

2Ki:3:19: And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.

Obviously, the Moabites didn’t realize that they were up against God and they sent their army out. They met no resistance …so they got as far as the Israeli camp, at which point...

2Ki:3:24: And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.

It was all very much like the IDF taking Gaza. And, like Hamas, the Moabites found themselves still losing badly:

2Ki:3:26: And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to breakthrough even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.

AND HERE IS THE ANSWER

2Ki:3:27: Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.

Now I’m not sure who’s in charge of Hamas but, like all Arabs, he probably got a dozen wives and a handful of sons one of whom has to be the eldest.

It’s the only thing that’ll stop Israel.
