31. To Rivka #22
Lior ,   Israel   (01.19.09)
I have sat and heard your ramblings about Obama too long now. While I did not vote for Obama I will tell you I voted for Bush not once but twice and he turned out to be the hugest disappointment not to mention the falsest friend of Israel on the planet. You make insane procrastinations on Obama yet your lips are sealed to the hilt when it comes to Bush and you are a friend? Please. I remind you, Bush promised prior to his first election he would move the U.S embassy to it's rightful place in Jerusalem and for that he axed the embassy act 8 times. Yet, he signed the renewal lease for the PLO office in NY as many times. Please find for me where Bush called Jerusalem the undivided capital of Israel! Bush whitewashed ie: lied for Abbas calling him a man of peace while at the same time Abbas santions Fatah posters throughout the territories showing all of ISRAEL AS PALESTINE. Prior to receiving Abbas the final time in the oval office Abbas made a visit to Samir Kuntar, avowed Jew killer in Beirut. After Abu Mazen aka Abbas left that congratulatory meeting Kuntar took a moment out from Hezbollah training to proclaim he will not rest until all of Israel is destroyed mimicking the Fatah proclamation which calls for the destruction of Israel. Worse, Bush refused to sell (not give) Israel our much needed long range aircraft so we could go to Iran and crush their nukes. But never mind the Bush democracy of Iraq refused to allow Israel to fly over. In the mean time all you can do is make false statements about Obama. You have your nerve Rivka especially since you are continually silent on Bush false relationship with Israel. BTW: Upon Bush leaving Israel the final time he proclaimed: Take good care of Olmert. Imagine that!!
32. Israel allows gays in army

33. The end of the article makes the rest of it irrelevant.

34. No!, give time for business to prosper
observer   (01.19.09)
after the great demo, Palestinians are expected to make enormous deals with the soldiers while in. Smuggling across borders is too costly, risky, and takes long time; especially that through Israel-Saini, Gaza route.
35. "OBAMA"S INAUG". + ISRAEL TOGETHER?

Observation   (01.19.09)
Really? Guess you want to join!
37. gays in the army!!
Mark ,   Maale Adumim   (01.19.09)
Whats wrong if "Gays" are in the army, I prefer the term Homosexuals if you please, they are no different to you or me when it comes to fighting.
38. I Personally Could Care Less About
Lawrence ,   Safed Israel   (01.19.09)
Obummer or Obama or Osama ,whatever his name is.He may very well end up being an extremely good president,or not as the case may be.I am just relieved to see the back of George "Dubbya" Bush for a while.Whether Israel's Leaders have exercised good judgement with the prompt pull-out from Gaza remains to be seen.One can be sure that Hamas received one mother of a beating.Probably Olmert and co .did not wish to embarrass Mr.Obama and therefore declared a unilateral ceasefire.It was a wise move however to prevent a high casualty rate of I.D.F fighters which would have occurred had they entered the urban warfare trap in built-up areas.
39. #1 comment for you.
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
The only messiah returning will be the Lord our God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Any other messiah is a false messiah. God tells us to see to it that we are not decieved for that day will not come less there be a falling away first. YIKES!!!!!!
40. #14 apparently they've made him King of the World
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
Get your Bibles out start reading them folks. The only one that will save this world is the Lord, and I truly believe he'll be returning very very soon. It's been a long time coming, but he IS coming.
41. There have been lawsuits concerning citizenship
#31 ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
The problem is our Supreme court did nothing about it. There's too much of a love fest going on around the world. The lawsuits wanted proof of citizenship, however our news media will not touch it with a 10 foot pole. Another Yikes!!!!!! Just so you know, I am on Israel's side, all the way, but I refuse to be deceived by anyone.
42. #14 answer to your question
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
Apparently he's been made more than the prime minister of Israel. Look around, watch, look at people's faces when he's talking. No, no, he's much more than the prime minister, he's being made King of the World.
43. there is something seriously wrong with
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (01.19.09)
Gentiles in America they are turning this country into an idiocracy. They have total messianic madness and I can't even fathom why they would think she would even waste her time by coming back to earth and America in particular.
44. #27 What's your name? Who's the coward?
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
Funny how when people have the nerve to talk about the Jews being cowards, they don't have the nads to state their name. Ironic.
45. 31 Lior: It is difficult at times to get an answer posted.
Rivkah   (01.19.09)
Most candidates for US President say before the election that they want International recognition of Israel's right to Jerusalem. Then, after getting elected and being briefed on many things they did not know for security reasons, they back off. When Jerusalem is divided in an international treaty and Israel is given international recognition of the right to part of Jerusalem, that is what Daniel in the Bible calls "The Covenant with Death". Joel and many other Bible Prophets warn about the end of Gentile World Rule seven years after that treaty is signed. Also, the Bible says the borrower is servant to the lender. America is not energy independent when it could be if the politicians were not bought off in both parties. There is a great debt that may collapse the government because OPEC oil backed up the US dollar for decades since purchases of oil had to be made in US dollars in an agreement with President Nixon when he took the US dollar off the silver standard. President Franklin Roosevelt took the US dollar off the gold standard in the 1930's. Now that OPEC is trading oil in other currencies, the US dollar and therefore the US economy is in jeopardy. Many wrongful concesssions are made to OPEC countries because the borrower is servant to the lender. Also there are many radical Islamics in America with Pakistani nuclear weapons and an edict from Saudi Arabian Imans to nuke seven cities in America on one day: NYC, Wash.D.C.,Chicago, Miami, Houston, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. The people of America continue to sin as if there is no judgment coming from the Lord for the slaughter of the unborn and fornication, etc. When a nation forgets God, the Bible tells what the consequences are after the Lord patiently waits for repentence and does not get it. Drought, floods, natural disasters, famine, disease, invasion, captivity. A third of the people die from famine and disease, a third die from the sword and a third go into captivity. A FEW are protected in the folds of God's skirt (winds). Eight were protected in the whole earth in Noah's time of the Great Flood. President Bush kept America safe for seven years at a great cost in lives and wars. Few others see the danger of radical Islam that wants to take over the world. The economy was doing all right until 2006 when the Democrats got control of BOTH houses of Congress and Senate. The banking failures and mortgage failures are not from Bush policies but from the Clinton Administration FORCING Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and the banks to give mortgage loans to illegals (5 million illegals have defaulted), and minorities who could not afford them, trashed the houses, and walked away, leaving the banks and mortgage companies to go under. The Democrats want Socialism and Communism with the government owning public companies. They want to rob the haves who worked hard to give to the havenots who malinger and soak the system for all they can get at taxpayers expense.
46. #45 Rikvah you cannot possibly believe that
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (01.19.09)
dribble you espouse.
47. Historic Obama Inagruation & Ancient Prophecy
Lenny Arendt ,   Destin, FL USA   (01.19.09)
Many believe Obama's sudden rise to global popularity from obscurity makes him prime candiadate to be the Antichrist. According to CNN, a Google search of "Obama Antichrist" finds about a billion results & rising popularity borders on "Cult of Personality". The Bible says the Antichrist suffers a Fatal Head Wound and Resurrects from it, causing the whole world to Wonder. If Obama is the one, here is one possibility of how it could happen. Nostradamus seemed to designate "MABUS", which some believe predicts the transfer of power Jan. 20, 2009 (obaMA-BUSh). One scenario that may confirm this is if a Shocking 9-11 Style Terror USAmBUSH event takes place, in Nostradamus prediction of Great Power taken by the "dark one that comes from slaves. ARYANA (neo-nazis/kkk?) Unsatisfied Thereby". I realize this scenario may seem far fetched, but is politically & technologically possible, & could possibly explain any bizarre event: OBAMA took a train following the tracks of Lincoln's Inagruation. Could Obama also follow History of Lincoln, MLK, & JFK in their Fatal Head Wounds with all the Security? Shots Fired? Shock & Awe? Mass Confusion? Stolen Hope? Race Riots/Wars & possible Martial Law? A Miraculous "Resurrection"? If Middle East tensions escalate... ALL the World would Wonder even more if Obama then ascended on the global stage, seen as a "savior", crafter & broker of that long elusive Middle East "Land-for-Peace" deal, would they not? Many recent news stories have highlighted the unprecedented security of the Historic Inagruation of the first black US President, because of threats from neo-nazi & racist groups. If Obama is seen to be assasinated in spite of heightened security, I believe that it would be a look alike clone, as the tech. to clone Dolly the Lamb has existed for decades. If Obama came back from a "Fatal Head Wound" it would certainly make the hopeful World Wonder after him with great Amazement. I realize how crazy this vision I am having may seem, but the world itself is so crazy lately, no? I pray & hope for the true peace & unity of Israel with an undivided Jerusalem, rather than more tensionns, although I believe the world will get crazier before it gets better, with all of the ancient hatreds that apparently still exist among ethnic groups, especially against Israel. True Peace will eventually come... Blessings & Shalom!!
48. To Rivkah
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
Yes, Yes, I completely agree with you. In my opinion America is Babylon that God spoke of in the Bible, he describes the Mystery of Babylon that completely reminds me of New York. (which we have a large Jewish population) We've turned our backs on God and his commandments. We send people to prison for killing their dogs, yet allow millions of unborn children to be slaughtered for "the rights of the mother". Something is really twisted and evil about that. People don't see it they just don't see it. I'm scared to death that Jacob's trouble has just started for Israel, and these are God's chosen people (like it or not world, pay attention), he will not let the land be divided (not for long anyway). All I can say is may God have mercy on us.
49. Rivkah I think you're RIGHT................
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.19.09)
America has turned their back on God. We will pay for this and rightfully so.
50. 48, 49 Tyra: Babylon may not be America or Rome
Rivkah   (01.20.09)
or Iraq. The author of "God's War on Terror" presents another possibility. He sees the beast with a harlot on its back as an Islamic crescent with the harlot being Babylon, Saudi Arabia. Most of the jihad and fatwa, etc. edicts as well as the radical Wahabi sect of Islam come from Saudi Arabia which is drunk with the blood of the saints, just as the papacy is. Time will tell. But the red and purple garments seem to indicate Rome. America will come under judgment for forgetting God, but it may or may not be a candidate for Babylon, Mystery Babylon, or Babylon the Great: three different entities.
51. 48: God is merciful and heals what He has broken if there is
Rivkah   (01.20.09)
repentence. The judgments to come on all nations is to bring them to repentence and a knowledge of God. When a nation forgets the Lord, the consequences are that a third of the people die of famine and disease, a third die from the sword, and a third go into captivity. And a FEW are protected by God like Noah and his family and Lot and his daughters.
52. 50 and 51 your devices and implements
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (01.20.09)
of subjugation are false. You claim some sort of divine gnostic insight into holy scripture. It is used to castigate, diminish and belittle humanity while invoking the sanifiied name "it is the height of hubris" it;s origins are of Amelek, Korach, Asav. and Baalam. This insight and these perceptions you claim to have into future events is premised based on the corruption of sacred literature and is merely false prognostication. Just another counterfeit currency in the marketplace of greed and a avarice. Resist the need to receive for yourself alone and cease the defamation of humanity.
53. To Rivkah- thank you.
Tyra ,   Lebanon, USA   (01.20.09)
I read the Bible much but there is much I do not understand as well. I see our times matching/mirroring the events of the last days and get afraid, not for me, but for the ones who don't see and don't repent.
54. repentance? and who or what exactly will
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (01.20.09)
judge that? In Europe from the time of the Emirate of Cordoba to the time of the Holy Roman Empire to the Maleus Malificarnum to the Cum Nimas Absurdum to the Reich's Concordat to the pogroms to the Fahr Huuds, the purges, the labor camps the todeschlagers, Charles D'Gobineau's, the Pope Gregory's the Adolf Hitler's etc. etc etc all just wanted one thing, if you asked them? Repentance - yes they like you would have the following apologize and repent for their lesser-ness as a creation - women, non-believers of the water walking man god, those whose skin is pigmented differently, those whose sexual identity is different etc. etc and you like these other self-actualized Naviim will unleash the forces of persecution and violence to correct them to your satisfaction and you will deprive them of livelihood lest your prophesy manifest or their repentance recognized and this is all in the name of your deity.
