Is it ISIS or ISIL?

Have you noticed that our Muslim President and all of his staff refer to ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) while everyone else says ISIS? Well wonder no more! The Levant is a word that refers to a geographic region in the Middle East which includes Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and ISRAEL. See the map below. When Obama says ISIL he is signaling his support for an Islamic Caliphate that would eliminate Israel. By doing so, he will hasten the judgment of God on America. What does this mean for the future of America and Jews and Christians in America who oppose this anti-God ideology? What does this mean for you?

The Heart of the Islamic Caliphate

is guess what?

ISRAEL

ISIS, ISLAM AND THE KORAN

Is ISIS a Radical Extremist Group or the True Face of Islam?

by Dr. Richard Booker

Whenever there is an Islamic terrorist attack, Islamic leaders (and their useful court jester John Kerry) say Islam is a peaceful religion that does not teach such terrible things. Because the unrestrained evil of ISIS is revealing the true nature of Islam, ISIS is an embarrassment to Islamic leaders in the US and abroad who are denying that ISIS is Islamic. In his speech to the American public, our Muslim President Obama said, “Now let’s make two thing clear: ISIL (his term for ISIS) is not ‘Islamic.’ No religion condones the killing of innocents.” Has President Obama never read the Koran or is he simply lying (again)?

Whether it is 9/11, the Boston Marathon, the Fort Hood massacre, Europe, Asia or the Middle East, Islamic terrorist are simply doing what the Koran tells them to do. They are the observant Muslims. The following words are from the Koran. I could have included many other verses. Italics are added for emphasis. Read it and decide for yourself. I have hyphenated A-l-ah so you will not have to pronounce it (Exodus 23:13).

Regarding Violence and Terror

Fighting is obligatory for you … (Surah 2:216)

And kill them (the unbelievers) wherever you find them … (Surah 2:191)

Slay them (the unbelievers) wherever you find them … Fight against them until idolatry is no more and A-l-ah’s religion reigns supreme (Surah 2:190,193)

We will put terror in the hearts of the unbelievers … (Surah 3:150)

The only reward of those who make war upon A-l-ah and His messenger and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternative sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land … (Surah 5:33)

… And if they turn away know that A-l-ah’s will is to smite them … (Surah 5:49)

… Take not the Jews and Christians for friends … (Surah 5:51)

… Strike off their (the infidels) heads, strike off the very tips of their fingers (Surah 8:12)

… slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive, and besiege them, and prepare to ambush them … (Surah 9:5)

Fight against those [Jews and Christians] who believe not in A-l-ah nor the Last Day (Surah 9:29)

When you meet the unbelievers in the battlefield strike off their heads … take ransom from them (Surah 47:4)

The Hadith – Collections of the Sayings of Muhammed

The last hour will not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or tree and a stone or tree would say: ‘Muslim, or the servant of A-l-ah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him’ … (Hadith Book 041, Number 6985)

Jews are apes and pigs (Surah 2:65; 5:60; 7:166)

 (The speech by the former Egyptian President referring to Jews as apes and pigs? Well guess where he got that.)

Regarding Women – This is what life will be like for women in America under Sharia Law

Men have authority over women because A-l-ah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because A-l-ah had guarded them. As for those from who you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them. A-l-ah is high, supreme. (Surah 4:34)

Do Moslems Worship the Same God as the Christians and Jews? Let the Koran give us the answer.

Say: ‘Unbelievers, I do not worship what you worship, nor do you worship what I worship. I shall never worship what you worship, nor will you ever worship what I worship. You have your own religion, and I have mine’ (Surah 109:1-6)

Miracles in Israel with Hamaz/Gaza War in 2014

The God of the Bible, who performed miracles for Israel in ancient times, is still performing miracles in Israel today. In the next five weeks I am reporting five

miracles that I pray will encourage you to seek God for your own miracle.

This fifth miracle is “It Pays to Pray”

Miracle Five – It Pays to Pray – An IDF Soldier’s Personal Miracle

When we went into the field, I asked my commander if I could take some sweets with me into Gaza that civilians sent us from all over the country and he agreed. I took a package of chocolate filled cookies. After a day and a half of fighting with minimal amounts of food, we were enclosed in a house and I recalled that I had cookies packed with my gear.

I opened up the box and saw a note in it from a young kid. It was written in exactly these words: “I know that you are protecting me, and this is a small token of my appreciation to you. I am still you, but I have one request, that you say a blessing over the food.”

The secular soldier did not know how to make a blessing over the food. But another soldier there who was his friend and was religious was in another corner of the house.  The soldier crawled towards his religious friend to ask him what blessing to say and how to say it. When he was done saying the blessings, there was a HUGE explosion. An RPG rocket was shot and exploded exactly in the place he had been just a moment before crawling to his friend. The soldier was wounded, but only with a few minor scratches. The solder broke out with a heartfelt cry.

This fourth miracle is the miracle of the “Cloud of Protection.”

Miracle Four – The Cloud of Protection

Meanwhile, the Times of Israel reported a senior officer in Israel’s army said divine miracles protected his soldiers during fighting in the Gaza Strip.

Givati Brigade commander Col. Ofer Winter told the weekly publication Mishpacha that he “witnessed a miraculous occurrence, the likes of which he had never seen before during his military career.”

Winter indicated a predawn raid intended to use darkness as cover was delayed, forcing the soldiers to move toward their objective as sunrise was approaching.

With the troops in danger of being exposed at daybreak, Winter explained how heavy fog quickly descended to shroud their movements until their mission was accomplished.

“Suddenly a cloud protected us,” he said, referring to clouds the Bible says guided the ancient Israelites as they wandered in the desert. “Clouds of glory.”

Winter said only when the soldiers were in a secure position, the fog finally lifted.

“It really was a fulfillment of the verse ‘For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to give you victory,’” he said, quoting Deuteronomy 20:4.

The Times of Israel notes Winter made headlines over an official letter he sent to battalion and company commanders July 9, telling his subordinates that “history has chosen us to spearhead the fighting (against) the terrorist ‘Gazan’ enemy which abuses, blasphemes and curses the God of Israel’s (defense) forces.”

The dispatch came under fire from some, since it portrayed the Operation Protective Edge as a religious war against non-Jews. The Israeli government’s stated aim is to stop rocket attacks at Israel and destroy a network of tunnels dug under the border from Gaza used to launch terror attacks inside Israeli territory.

In his interview with Mishpacha, Winter defended his message, saying everyone finds God when in combat.

“Anyone who attacked me for the letter apparently has only seen weapons in pictures, was never in combat, and doesn’t know what fighting spirit is,” he said, revealing that before going into action his custom was to recite the blessing with which the ancient Israelite priests would bless the army before it went to war. “When a person is in a life-threatening situation he connects with his deepest internal truths, and when that happens, even the biggest atheist meets God,” he said, claiming soldiers see so many miracles, “it is hard not to believe [in God].”

This third miracle is the miracle of “The Wind of God.”

Miracle Three – The Wind of God

More claims of divine intervention are being reported in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, with an operator of Israel’s Iron Dome missile-defense system saying he personally witnessed “the hand of God” diverting an incoming rocket out of harm’s way.

Israel Today translated a report from a Hebrew-language news site, which noted the Iron Dome battery failed three times to intercept an incoming rocket headed toward Tel Aviv last week.

The commander recalled: “A missile was fired from Gaza. Iron Dome precisely calculated [its trajectory]. We know where these missiles are going to land down to a radius of 200 meters. This particular missile was going to hit either the Azrieli Towers, the Kirya (Israel’s equivalent of the Pentagon) or [a central Tel Aviv railway station]. Hundreds could have died.

“We fired the first [interceptor]. It missed. Second [interceptor]. It missed. This is very rare. I was in shock. At this point we had just four seconds until the missile lands. We had already notified emergency services to converge on the target location and had warned of a mass-casualty incident.

“Suddenly, Iron Dome (which calculates wind speeds, among other things) shows a major wind coming from the east, a strong wind that … sends the missile into the sea. We were all stunned. I stood up and shouted, ‘There is a God!’

“I witnessed this miracle with my own eyes. It was not told or reported to me. I saw the hand of God send that missile into the sea.”

The commander’s account is reminiscent of a recent newspaper headline which trumpeted the possibility of supernatural protection

“Their God changes the path of our rockets in mid-air, said a terrorist,” was the headline in the July 18 edition of the Jewish Telegraph.

It was a partial quote from Barbara Ordman, who lives in Ma’ale Adumim on the West Bank.

Her exact quotation was: “As one of the terrorists from Gaza was reported to say when asked why they couldn’t aim their rockets more effectively: “We do aim them, but their God changes their path in mid-air.”

She opened her piece by noting: “In October 1956, [Israeli Prime Minister] David Ben Gurion was interviewed by CBS. He stated: ‘In Israel, in order to be a realist, you must believe in miracles.’

This second miracle is the miracle of “A Dove Landing on a String.”

Miracle Two – A Dove landing on a String

At a synagogue in Israel this week, a soldier who just returned from Gaza told this beautiful story. He and his army unit identified the home of a wanted Hamas terrorist, and made all of the arrangements to go and arrest him. They arrived at his house, hiding and undercover, early in the morning. They were about to enter the house, but then they saw a dove hovering overhead, which seemed very strange.

They all stopped to watch the dove, and he landed on a tiny little string. A second after he landed on the string, the entire house blew up. The house was booby trapped, and the string was connected to the door. If the soldiers would have entered the house, they all would have been killed. God sends His messengers in all different shapes.

The God of the Bible, who performed miracles for Israel in ancient times, is still performing miracles in Israel today. In the next five weeks I am reporting five miracles that I pray will encourage you to seek God for your own miracle.

This first miracle is the miracle of “Harvesting Wheat.”

Miracle One – Harvesting Wheat

The following story appeared on the Israeli website Radio Kol Chai, as told by Avi Jacob(and translated by Rivka Friedman). Yet another story whereby following Hashem’s will, a disaster was averted:

Three weeks ago a group of residents came from Bnei Brak to Kibbutz Sufa in order to harvest wheat for Pesach. They harvest the wheat every summer when the sun beats down on the fields, thoroughly drying the wheat. The wheat is then stored until the winter when they start the production and baking of matzos.

Aharon Samet, owner of the “Samet” factory producing “tzitzis” fringes, is the Badatz community supervisor for the wheat harvest. On a radio program today with Rabbi Moshe Ben Lulu, Samet told the story of the great miracle which occurred for the people of Israel thanks to this year’s wheat harvest.

“This year we are getting ready for the Shmitta agricultural sabbatical year, so this summer we harvested wheat grain for two years. We searched the whole country, looking for wheat which was sown late in the season and needed rain which fell late. At Kibbutz Sufa right next to the Gaza border we found an entire field sown in mid-January, which was considered very unusual, so we found 2000 acres of green wheat which was just right for us, “said Samet.

“We harvested the wheat,” said Samet, “and we ran into military police, as well as undercover and regular police who came to check out who we were.” The Gaza air campaign was already underway, and Samet and his colleagues saw the smoke clouds over Gaza, and heard the sirens while they were busy harvesting and transferring the wheat to trucks and moving them towards the cleaning plant near Masmiya for cleaning the wheat, fumigating and tithing it.

Two days later 13 terrorists came from Gaza out from the tunnel which opened into the fields near Sufa. The terrorists had been planning a big attack, and had been counting on hiding among Sufa’s giant wheat field–which the matzah makers had just chopped down in its entirety. The terrorists couldn’t understand how their camouflage had disappeared.

The empty field enabled military observers to easily spot and identify the terrorists and open fire on them. Many Jewish lives were thus saved by the grace of Heaven.

The Hamas Charter

Calls for the Destruction of Israel

In case you have not had time to read it, here are some excerpts from the Hamas Charter.

The preamble reads:

“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.”

Article Three:

The duty of all Muslims is: “(To) fear Al-ah and raise the banner of Jihad in the face of the oppressors.”

Article Seven:

“The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Muslim, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.'”

Article Eleven:

“The land of Palestine is an Islamic Waif (Holy Possession) consecrated for future Muslim generations until Judgment Day. No one can renounce it or any part, or abandon it or any part of it.”

Article Thirteen:

“Palestine is an Islamic land. … the liberation of Palestine is an individual duty for every Muslim wherever he may be. There is no solution for the Palestinian problem except by Jihad.”

But what does God say:

“I will bring back the captives of My people Israel, they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; they shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them. I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have give them, says the LORD your God” (Amos 9:14-15).

Liquidate Europe Before Europe Liquidates You

In my previous blog I noted the connection between the comments made by the new President of Israel and the violent anti-Semitism in Europe. The President of Israel said he wished that millions of Jews would make aliyah to Israel. I said that the President would get his wish and much more in that Jews in Europe would soon make aliyah and this would be followed by the Jews in America.

The very next day a new initiative was announced to encourage Jews in Europe to make aliyah. The new agency is called “The Joint Operations for Aliyah Promotion.” The agency is a joint effort of the Israeli government and various Jewish organizations involved in aliyah and Europe. Jewish organizations have already raised $29 million to fund the effort over the next two years. The money will be used to conduct information seminars, job fairs and financial incentives to Jews in Europe wanting to make aliyah.

As Europe becomes more and more anti-Semitic, there will be more and more violence against European Jews. That is why it is critical for Jews in Europe to liquate Europe before Europe liquates the Jews. Jews in Europe are beginning to understand this. Aliyah for the first four months of 2014 was up fifty percent from Europe and eighteen percent from North America.

To our Jewish friends living in the Diaspora, your time living among the Gentiles is coming to a close. God has a great destiny for you in Israel. Leave the fleshpots of the nations while you can. Fulfill your destiny to be a light to the nations from the Land of Israel. The nations have lost their way and need your light shining bright out of Zion.

Christian lovers of Israel and the Jewish people will stand with you as you fulfill your God-given destiny. As the Lord said to Joshua, He says to you, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid nor be dismayed. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9).

The Nazification of Europe and the

New President of Israel

Europe recently had its Parliamentary elections. The result … extreme rightwing nationalist parties including a neo-Nazi party made dramatic gains. Nationalist parties are anti-immigrant and anti-Semitic. The biggest gains were in Hungary, France and Greece. The most shocking result was that the neo-Nazi member is from Germany. Yes, you read that correctly, Germany. What this means is that Europe will become more openly anti-Semitic. We saw this with the murder of Jews at a Jewish museum in Brussels, the very home of the Beast, the European Parliament.

You know the devil is not as smart as he thinks. As Europe becomes more anti-Semitic, Jews will finally realize their destiny is in Israel and not among the nations. They will soon begin to make Aliyah in large numbers. A post Judeo-Christian America will also become more openly anti-Semitic as well as anti-Christian. When the Jews in the good ole USA see this happening and realize all the other Jews are in Israel, guess what? They too will make Aliyah. Throughout history, what the devil meant for evil, God used it for good to further His redemptive purposes.

What does this have to do with the new President of Israel? Reuvin Rivlin has said that he hopes that all the Jewish people will make Aliyah to Israel. While the current population of Israel is six million, President Rivlin specifically said he hopes that the Jewish population of Israel would swell to ten million. I have some good news for President Rivlin, the Jewish population of Israel will be a lot more than ten million.

As the Lord spoke through the prophet Ezekiel, “‘then they [the Jewish people] shall know that I am the LORD their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them captive any longer. And I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,’ says the LORD God” (Ezekiel 39:28-29).”
