1. recall barak wanted galant as chief of staff
meir   (06.17.16)
gantz was an alternate pick when barak's choice of galant fell through. as for gantz, he looked the part yet was singularly cautious, had no appetite for battle, was wrong on hamas tunnels and stopped short in the hamas battle without really destroying hamas critical elements. in short he was more the diplomat with no great achievement as chief of staf. so likely zionist union can take him in. they can have him. israelis will not be fooled and will not vote for him period/
2. Same genius who wanted to give Golan to Syria.

3. I can only imagine the Email traffic between the "has-beens"
(06.18.16)
Judging by the sheer audacity and volume of attacks that had transpired the past couple of weeks, it begins to look like an orchestrated State-Coup....These Zombies are in all sincerity trying to ferment a "spontaneous", popular people's revolution: Anything but Bibi, why? It has finally sunk in, that they will NEVER grab the power again since the very same "people" they've been BS'ing for so long, finally have seen the truth and are DOING something about it, like: REALLY installing a right wing govt. Nuff said!

5. we servants of HaShem do need to fight evil

That is what He calls us to do- for the sake of our own bodies and also for the sake of other human beings. I want to encourage folks to be aware that God has made you able to stnd up to evil; to help others. Here is a thought based on Yeshua if you believe the Son of God came down in the flesh two thousand years ago. I write about what I have experienced, and I wish to share it with others. If you believe Yeshua is the Son of God and came from God, then we know all of Him comes from God; therefore Yeshua is ‘like the seed’ of God in that all of Yeshua comes from God, nowhere else. ““Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? “ John 14:10a,b Yeshua said, “The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works.” That’s because Yeshua came down into the fallen flesh when He was here on earth. He and God knew that so speaking God’s words that HaShem gave Yeshua to speak, and obeying God was the correct action to take while He was in the fallen flesh. Remember, Yeshua once cried out, ‘Father return me to My former glory’? John 17:5 So Yeshua was ‘holy- from God’ inside the fallen flesh while He was here on earth. So He obeyed God. In Leviticus 20:8, HaShem says “I am the God who sanctifies you.” Written YHWH meqadishkem. Our flesh is fallen, it is always fallen. Following the Torah and eating kosher, wearing single thread clothes, not mixed, is good for the vessel of our bodies to remain clean from the evil around us. Evil attacks our flesh constantly. We have His holiness inside us, but our flesh remains fallen until we die. When a person is sanctified- they are holy both inside and their body. A person can ask HaShem to sanctify them. It is possible. Remember Yeshua saying something about ‘ that which is in us is life, the flesh profits nothing’? John 6:63. What we have in us, is from God. Yeshua was ‘ all God’ so in Him was God. What is in us is what God gives us. We are not at all in any way equated with HaShem or Yeshua. However, that which is in us if greater than we realize. It is the power of God keeping the flesh alive and it is so much more. When a person asks the Holy Spirit to purify their body to be made a vessel holy, ready, and fitting to be put into service of HaShem God, and His son Yeshua, the Holy Spirit does so- even if the person does not know what HaShem God will use their body for. So if Yeshua was -of God and came down, Holy- of God in fallen flesh, and He returned to HaShem’s house to be holy completely- no fallen flesh, then we see what He was saying to us. He was saying that which is in us from God- therefore, nothing on earth can get in its way to prevent it from doing God’s work. God has placed the power in you to do His works. To be most clear- with God’s holiness inside us, sanctified flesh, we can go do all that HaShem asks us to do. There is not anything we cannot do if He has asked us or commanded us to go do it- period. Stop limiting your mind- as Yeshua was saying. Just go do it- Yeshua was able and He came down in the flesh- carried a heavy, heavy burden we could not ever carry- and at the same time said ‘you are free! Go do what HaShem asks you freely.’
