WAR AND RELIGION
by

Vendyl Jones
Was the NATO Incursion into the Balkans, a Dress Rehearsal for a New
Israeli-Palestinian Conflict?

This article has very strong political statements that are necessary to
convey the significance of certain recent events and their prophetic
implications. These statements are not politically correct. Some may even
find them offensive. Other readers may object to what they deem mixing
politics with religion in the Researcher. But, how can we ever discuss the
fate of Israel without the two? Religion and politics were forever bound
together when Ha Shem created a nation at Mount Sinai and gave them their
Constitution in the form of the Torah. Pick any book of the Tanach, the
so-called Old Testament, and you will find the prophets making very
political statements. Throughout the course of this article I have sought to
be tactful without sacrificing the truth. Whether I have succeeded will
depend upon the reader's particular point of view.

Last December, the President of the United States was impeached. Yet, due to
the overwhelming and unprecedented political prejudice of certain elected
officials, he was not removed from office. These officials stated that the
President should remain in office for "the good of the country" as though
the United States couldn't function without this particular outlaw at the
helm. In my opinion, the failure of the Senate to carry out justice in the
face of the overwhelming evidence presented is tantamount to idolatry and
therefore I have chosen to treat it as such. Many of you are familiar the
Torah teaching that it is forbidden for a Jew to write or utter the name of
a false god or an idol. If it is necessary to mention the same, it is
permissible to change a letter, syllable or a sound of the name. Gentiles of
course are under no such restriction, but for personal reasons (my mother
washed my mouth out with soap if I used a vulgarity) I have chosen to adhere
to this requirement. Throughout the course of our article I have spelled the
name of this felon as Klinton.

This is the third in a series of articles that continues to examine the
significance of the 24th day of the 9th Month. This timeframe from the
Jubilee Calendar is so full of import that the Prophet Haggai was compelled
to mention it four times. Last year this pivotal date coincided with
December 14, 1998, on the Gregorian Calendar.

During this installment we will expound on significant events spoken of by
Haggai that are, for the first time in history, coming to pass. In addition
we will reveal how the 25th day of Kislev, on the Jewish Lunar Calendar,
also synchronizes with Haggai's crucial date. We will also expose a number
of striking parallels that the above dates share with the Feast of Lights or
Hanukkah. Finally, we will demonstrate the timely linkage of past historical
past events with the troubles in the Balkans and ultimately how it will
impact the State of Israel and the Jewish people.

In the October '98 Researcher we showed how certain end-time events would
culminate in the recovery of the Mishkan and the eventual establishment of
the Third House (Temple). Haggai did not specify the year because such
prophecies were often "sealed up" until the end of days. This does not mean,
however, that the year will remain unknown or that those who witness these
events will not recognize their significance.

In the December '98 Researcher (published and mailed just before Mr.
Klinton's impeachment) we again reminded our readers of this date and
alerted them to its significance. Something was about to happen!

Indeed, on December 14, 1998, after the December issue was mailed, something
happened that literally shook the Heavens and the Earth. It would initiate
the countdown for the restoration of the Third Temple. That is why Haggai's
date is so important. If we are to determine the correct time frame we must
know which calendar Haggai used.

Will the Real Calendar Please Stand
The Gregorian Calendar is employed almost worldwide today.

The Jewish Lunar Calendar is based on lunar cycles (Torah observant Jews use
the Lunar Calendar in order to comply with certain halachic requirements).

The ancient Jubilee Calendar is based on the solar cycle. This particular
calendar was wrongly discarded over 2000 years ago. Israel utilized it
during its first commonwealth and it was the same one that Haggai used. It
is the same calendar that the Creator gave to Israel at the time of the
Exodus.

Some basic astronomy will allow us to understand why these calendars differ
from one another. There are 365.2422 days in a solar year (a solar year is
the time it takes the earth to orbit the sun). Naturally, there is no way to
divide this period of time equally for the purpose of creating "months." If
there were exactly 360 days in a solar year, then the solar year could be
divided into 12 equal months of 30 days each. If this were the case, every
civilization that has ever existed would probably have devised the same
simple calendar. The variations in every calendar reflect how different
cultures dealt with the additional days and hour.

The months of the Gregorian Calendar vary in length from 28 days to 31 days.
The result is slightly less than 365.2422 days. An adjustment is therefore
necessary once every four years. This is accomplished with a leap year.
During this leap year, a day is added to the number of days in February.

In contrast, the months of the Jewish Lunar Calendar alternate between 29 an
d 30 days in length. However, the beginning of any given month depends upon
the phases of the moon. The length of the lunar month is just over 29 ½
days. Like the Gregorian, the end result is slightly less than 365.2422
days. An adjustment is required but the Jewish Lunar Calendar does not add
days to individual months. Instead, days are allowed to accumulate over a
period of time to create an entire month. This is done seven times every
nineteen years.

The Jubilee Calendar is computed differently. While the months of this solar
timetable vary between 29 and 31 days, the beginning of each month is
dependent upon the timing of its celestial equivalent (in the Zodiac) and
its position in relation to the gate of the sun. For a complete explanation
of these calendars you may want to read the November 1996 Researcher.

Because they are not calculated in the same manner and were instituted
during vastly different eras, none of these calendars are in sync with one
another. That is why the date on any given calendar will float with respect
to its counterpart on another. This is especially true when attempting to
compare the Gregorian Calendar with the Jubilee Calendar.

When Haggai's 24th day of the 9th month is synchronized with the 1998
Gregorian Calendar it coincides with December 14th, 1998. According to the
prophet, something would occur on this day that would mark the beginning of
a series of events culminating in the restoration of all things and lay the
foundation for the Third Temple. What were some of these events?

"I will shake the Heavens and the Earth." (Haggai 2:6) "I will cause a
violent noise of war among all Nations." (Haggai 2:7) "I will overthrow the
throne of Kingdoms." (Haggai 2:22)

Haggai's date was so important that it was repeated four times in the second
and last chapters of the Book of Haggai. Repetition like this is most
unusual. It means we should expect something momentous and watch for it!

I Will Overthrow the Throne of Kingdoms!

What an interesting statement! Did something occur on December 14th, 1998,
that would cause G-d to overthrow certain thrones or oust certain leaders
from power; and if so, what does it signify? It was on this date that
President Klinton spoke with Yishar Arafat and the PLO in Gaza. He publicly
announced that the United States would give full support for the
establishment of a Palestinian State in the "West Bank" and Gaza. Klinton
also said that Jerusalem would be its capitol.

It is doubtful that Mr. Klinton understood that his pledge would mean an
alliance that would abrogate the covenant that HaShem had made with Abraham.
Genesis 28:13 makes it very clear that it was a covenant wherein the Land
was given to Jacob/Israel as an inheritance. The President was surely
unaware of the significance of his words in the grand scheme of G-d's plan
for Israel.

Klinton's pledge to Arafat.this "brilliant" proposal was announced to the
world on the 24th day of the 9th month on the Jubilee Calendar. That day
marked the beginning of a series of events wherein G-d would "overthrow the
Throne of Kingdoms." That same week Congress impeached President Klinton.
Two weeks later King Hussein of Jordan died. Another two weeks passed and
the King of Bahrain, Sheik 'Isa Ibn Sulman Al Khalifah died.

Thrones continue to topple. On May 16, 1999, Prime Minister Benyamin
Netanyahu of Israel was defeated in early elections. A little over a month
later, on July 23, Moroccans mourned the death of King Hassan the 2nd. The
fallen ruler enjoyed one of the longest reigns in the Arab world. King
Hassan II was a trusted friend of Israel and the Jewish People. And who can
deny that the death of young John Kennedy Jr, exactly a week before, was
another loss to a family that many regarded as American royalty? The
"Throne" of every relevant Kingdom has been shaken if not overthrown in a
very short period of time. And there are more to come.

"And now, I pray you, consider from this day (the 24th day of the 9th Month)
onward (i.e. sometime in the future) before one stone shall be laid upon
another for the [building of the Third] Temple of the Lord. from this day
onward from the 24th day of the 9th month, from the day that the foundation
of the [Third] Temple of the Lord was laid, consider it. I will shake the
Heavens and the Earth and I will overthrow the Throne of Kingdoms. I will
destroy the strength of the world's Kingdoms" - Haggai 2:15, 2:18, 2:21-22).

Note the unusual wording of this prophecy. It is obvious that the foundation
of each Temple consisted of stones that were laid one upon the other. But
how could the foundation be laid "before" any stones were put in place? That
would be impossible.

The answer is really quite simple. First of all, the grammatical structure
of the Hebrew of the above verse indicates future tense. Also, Haggai was
not referring to any physical foundation. It was a symbolic foundation. a
series of events that would eventually usher in the establishment of the
Third House. Haggai then proceeds to describe those events.

The effect of Klinton's December 14th proclamation is still reverberating
around the world. One by one, the nations have given their "blessing" to the
idea. A chorus of voices from the many "thrones" of the various "kingdoms"
has said: "go ahead. take a spoil from Israel. abrogate the covenant. take
back the Land that G-d gave to His people and give it to their enemies who
seek to cut them off."

In response, G-d reminds us of His covenant with Israel, "I will be their
G-d and they will be My people" (Ezekial 37:26-28) .and that He ".will
overthrow the Throne of Kingdoms" to make this happen, and that He ".will
destroy the strength of the world's Kingdoms" to prove it. A foundation will
be laid for a Third Temple and it will be raised as promised.

Madrid, Oslo and Wye Are Irrelevant.

It is unfortunate that former Prime Minister Netanyahu signed the Wye
Agreement. Not so much for the document's content or effect as for the fact
that he signed it on Shabbat. It is forbidden for a Jew to write anything on
Shabbat. When a man writes he actually "creates" something. HaShem refrained
from creating and rested on the 7th day. That is why the Torah forbids the
Jewish people from creating anything on Shabbat. A number of very prominent
Rabbis in Jerusalem insist that this is the real reason that G-d removed Mr.
Netanyahu from office.

Once every four years (or slightly less) Israel is a real Democracy¾but only
on the day of the elections¾only on the day they elect their Prime Minister!
No one, it seems, was happy with the elections of May 16th, 1999. The Right
was unhappy because Bibi was not re-elected. The Left was unhappy because
the "Religious" parties and the "Right-of-Center" parties won a majority of
the seats in the Knesset, Israel's parliament.

The Left referred to Ehud Barak's victory as a landslide but the truth is
that the Jewish voters gave Barak a margin of only 2% over Netanyahu¾a slim
margin by any standard. The Arab vote swung the election heavily in Barak's
favor, giving him a margin of 14% overall. Their ballot was cast due to
their belief that he would support the creation of a Palestinian State.
However, no one knows for sure what Barak is going to do.

A recent Washington Post story, by Charles Babington, detailed Barak's
recent visit to the United States during the week of July 19. The new PM
promised to carry out the Wye accords but would try to persuade Arafat to
allow a delay in further withdrawal of Israeli troops from the so-called
West Bank. The Post story revealed that when Netanyahu refused to pull
remaining troops from the territories, the U.S. punished Israel by
withholding a massive aid package that was part of the Wye agreement. The
people of Israel are, on one hand, being threatened with terrorism if they
don't give up their land while on the other, they face extortion from our
own government if they fail to comply.

It should be noted that Barak's political mentor, Yitzhak Rabin, had stated
on the lawn of the White House in 1996, that while ".we are talking about
'total autonomy for the Palestinians' .we are not negotiating for a
'Palestinian State.' We will never give up one square centimeter of the Land
of Israel that was liberated in the 1967, Six-Day War."

This present administration spent a great deal of time and U.S. taxpayer
dollars to get Barak elected. They had hoped to placate the Arab Nations and
to create a Palestinian State. Now, it appears that the horse they backed is
just as determined to prevent it as Netanyahu. The real question facing Mr.
Klinton is: "What additional leverage can be used to force Barak to comply
with our edicts and how far will we need to go?"

A Violent Noise of War among All Nations!

Now, let's take a look at some current events that are literally "shaking"
the foundations of the world¾events that may reveal an alternative plan to
force Israel to create a Palestinian State with or without Barak's consent.
Just three months and ten days after Klinton's pledge in Gaza, the US and
NATO bypassed the UN and began bombing Yugoslavia. The entire world heard
"the noise of war!"

The French, Chinese, Russian and Warsaw Pact Nations were enraged by Klinton
's move and reacted violently against the illegal bombing of Yugoslavia. For
some reason, the Media has not revealed the ensuing anti-American
sentiments. Somehow, the press managed to ignore the full story. Meanwhile,
it was reported that Chinese espionage agents stole top-secret missile
guidance systems from the United States. But were those secrets stolen?
According to the June 7 issue of U.S. New & World Report, ".before the
spying allegations, there was evidence of Chinese efforts to funnel money
into the Clinton-Gore re-election campaign."

Now, the long dormant threat of nuclear war has once again surfaced¾Haggai'
s words echo their theme that much more vividly. "I will cause a violent
noise of war among all Nations." (Haggai 2:7). Of course, all of this could
be just a coincidence. How can we be sure that the words of Haggai refer to
these events in 1998? How can we justify a claim that December 14th, 1998,
is the very day and year that the Prophet Haggai foresaw over twenty three
centuries ago? Is there perhaps another parallel?

Blessed are the Pure of Heart for they Shall See [the hand of] G-d

As previously mentioned the 24th Day of the 9th Month of the Jubilee
Calendar in Haggai's prophecy matches the 25th Day of the 12th Month on the
present Jewish Lunar Calendar. In 1998, these dates fell on December
14th .the very day that Klinton pledged to Arafat that he would give full
support for the establishment of a Palestinian State.

This year, interestingly enough, all of these dates also coincide with
Hanukkah! What is Hanukkah? It is the commemoration of the miracle of the
Menorah Lights at the time the Second Temple was dedicated. It was the
beginning of and the foundation for the restoration of Temple Worship in
Jerusalem after the return from Babylon. Sound familiar?

In the Tanach we read: "Surely HaShem will do nothing unless he reveals it
first to His servants, the Prophets" (Amos 3:7). Are there certain,
unfulfilled historic cliffhangers in Haggai's tiny little book that have
never happened in the history of the world?

In the past few months have we not observed those things that he described
happening almost day by day before our very eyes? Or is it just a figment of
an overactive imagination?

A Foundation for the Third Temple
When Haggai was given the prophecy about "laying the foundation", the Second
Temple had already been built. Obviously, its foundation was already in
place. The prophecy could only be referring to a third and final Temple. The
Book of Ezra (3:6, 8, 10-11) confirms this. According to this record, the
foundation of the Second Temple was laid in the second month of the second
year of Cyrus, which was well before the 24th Day of the 9th Month of the
same year. And from Ezra 6:15, we know that the Second Temple was finished
on the third day of the twelfth month (now called Adar) during the rule of
Darius, the son of Esther. Haggai was keenly aware that there was a "Former
House" and a "Present House," and that there would also be a "Latter House."

Haggai spoke of the future when he wrote, "And I will shake all the Nations.
And the desire of all Nations will come. And I will fill this House with
Glory, says HaShem of Forces. The Glory of this Latter House shall be
greater than the Glory of the Former" (Haggai 2:7,9).

Not a single word of this prophecy was ever fulfilled during the Second
Temple period. After the Second Temple was finished and all the Latter
Prophets had died, the Second Temple continued. Instead of the proper
administration of the worship of G-d, it served a more political purpose for
those who controlled Israel. The Sages of that day never referred to it as
the "House of G-d!" because it lacked the crucial items required for
halachically acceptable sacrifice and worship. These items or "treasures"
were missing since the destruction of the First House.

The Treasures Remained Hidden
The Prophets Haggai and Zechariah were among those that hid the Treasures of
the First House. These holy articles were those fashioned at Mount Sinai
under the leadership of Moses and Aaron. Before the destruction of Solomon's
Temple (The First House), they were secreted away so that they would not be
"plundered" by the Babylonians. These same Prophets wrote "the four records"
: the Copper Scroll, the Silver Scroll, the Marble Tablets and the Temple
Scroll. The latter tells how to re-institute Temple worship once the
Treasures of the Copper Scroll are recovered.

These same Prophets knew where these treasures were hidden. They were
present when the Second Temple was dedicated yet they allowed the precious
vessels to remain hidden. Why?

They were not destined for the Second Temple! The Temple Scroll, found at
Qumran, and the Jubilee Scroll distinctly state that these "Treasures will
be recovered" but only "after the Children of Israel are re-gathered from
the Nations" in the End of Days.

II Maccabees 2:1-6 recounts how certain men tried to "follow" Jeremiah and
his companions when they hid the Tabernacle and the Ark of G-d, but they
could not find the way. When Jeremiah perceived it, he cursed them and said:
"This place will be unknown until HaShem re-gathers His people together and
receives them unto mercy."

Even before they were taken captive to Babylon, these Prophets knew that the
Second Temple would be as nothing compared to the First Temple! Even before
they were taken to Babylon, these Prophets knew they would not recover them
in their lifetimes. That's why the Copper Scroll, for example, was written
on Copper .because it would need to survive the ravages of time. It would
have to remain "readable" for those who would recover it 2500 years in the
future!

Haggai and Zechariah were distraught when they saw the Second Temple. They
cried out asking: "Who is left among you that saw the First House in her
Glory? How do you see it now? Is it not in your eyes in comparison as
nothing?" (Haggai 2:3).

They were also distressed by the attitude of the people toward HaShem and
His House. "Thus says HaShem of Forces saying: 'These people say: The time
has not yet come, that HaShem's House should be built.'" (Haggai 1:2).
Sounds like the attitude of many people in our day, does it not?

Frustrated with the prevailing attitude of the people, these two Prophets
began to foretell things concerning the Last Days and the Third House.
Haggai gave the Priest two questions concerning what defiles a man from the
outside and what defiles him from the inside. In each case, the Priest
responded that either condition would make one unclean. Haggai answered by
the Word of HaShem and said: "So is this People and so is this Nation before
me says HaShem. And so is every work of their hands (e.g. the Second
Temple); and that which they offer there is unclean" (Haggai 2:14). This
rebuke against the Second Temple was never suspended.

HaTirshatha (Nehemiah the Prophet) said the priests would ".not eat of the
most Holy Things until there stand up a priest [among them] with the Urim
and Tummim" (Ezra 2:63). The Urim and Tummim were actually the lights and
reflections on the Breastplate of the High Priest. It is how the High Priest
communicated with HaShem. The 12-Jewelled Breastplate was also hidden with
the other sacred vessels from the First Temple.

>From the above statement, by Ezra, we know that the Urim and Tummim will be
used in the Third Temple. We also know that this Temple will include Israel'
s Ancient Tabernacle. According to the Prophet Ezekial, the Tabernacle will
stand in the midst of a superstructure that will extend out over the Kidron
Valley. HaShem said through Ezekial. "My Sanctuary [will be] in the midst of
them forevermore. My Tabernacle also. " (Ezekial 37: 26-27).

There was never a prophet, priest or king anointed during the Second Temple
Period. Why? Because there was no Shemen Mishkh with which to anoint them as
required by halacha. The last of this Holy Anointing Oil was hidden before
the destruction of the First Temple. Again, its location never revealed by
Haggai and Zechariah.

The Second Temple period was an impersonation¾an impostor of the First
Temple Period. By 175 BCE, the Syrian Greeks had taken over the land of
Israel and converted the Second Temple into a sanctuary for the god Jupiter.
After long years of cruel subjugation, a Hashmonean family of guerrilla
fighters began to battle the Greeks. They were led by Judas the Maccabee
which means, "hammer". It also is an acronym for their battle cry in Hebrew,
"Who is like Thee among the powers, O Lord!" In 165 BCE, the army of Judas
Maccabee re-took the Temple. The dedication ceremony was marked by the
miracle of Hanukkah.

An Echo from the Past: The First Hanukkah!
There are no references to a "celebration" of the Feast of Hanukkah anywhere
in the Jewish Scriptures. This is one of the reasons why many Christian
Theologians and Reform Jews insist that Orthodox Rabbis invented Hanukkah in
the Middle Ages. We read however, in the Gospels, in John10: 22, that the
Nazarene observed this Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah is Hebrew for
dedication). This text reveals that it occurred in "the winter".

Interestingly, this is one of many references in the so-called New Testament
that validates Traditional and Orthodox Judaism against the Higher Critics
and Reform opponents. These critics are unaware, or perhaps unwilling to
examine such records as those found in the Apocrypha, specifically the book
of II Maccabees. Here we find the entire story of the first Hanukkah.

According to II Maccabees, the Jewish people had just finished driving the
Greeks from the "akra" or edge of the plateau above the Temple Mount. The
Temple area was now secure and they could celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles
that had been delayed because of the Greek occupation. There was only one
problem. there was no halachically acceptable Oil to fill the Lamps
(Menorah) in the Temple. On the very day the Jews overcame the Greeks,
however, they discovered a small jug of Holy Oil from the time of the First
Temple. It was only a small amount of oil, sufficient for just one day (but
the Feast of Tabernacles lasts 8 days). What would they do? There was no
time to prepare more!

Miraculously, the oil burned for eight full days. The celebration of this
Feast of Sukkoth would normally have begun on the 15th day of the 7th month,
but instead, it began on the 25th day of Kislev. This event was the origin
of new festival celebrated annually by the Jewish people as the Apocryphal
Feast of Lights or Hanukkah.

Since it commemorates the dedication of a House of Prayer for All Nations
the gentiles should celebrate it as well. Seventy bulls were offered for the
seventy gentile nations during Sukkoth. In a sense the gentiles do celebrate
this holiday. The Feast usually proceeds Christmas by one or two weeks and
some have suggested that this is perhaps HaShem's way to get Christians to
unconsciously honor, with all the lights of Noel, the dedication of the
Temple. And perhaps, also, in this way, a remnant of lost souls may
recognize an echo from the past.

What's Past is Prologue
Hanukkah marked the victory of the Jewish people over a Gentile power.
Amazingly, history would repeat itself once again. In 1917, General Allenby
marched into Jerusalem without firing a shot, freeing the Holy City from
another Gentile power, the Ottoman Turks. The event occurred on the First
Night of Hanukkah! In addition, the Turk forces were undermanned due to
losing so many troops to wars, in the Balkans.
In 1998, Hanukkah fell on December 14th. On the Jubilee Calendar this was
the 24th day of the 9th month. When the prophet Haggai spoke these words
more than twenty-four centuries ago, over two thousand four hundred "24th
day of the 9th month's" have passed without incident. The date passed void
of any event that would directly affect Israel, the Jewish people, or any of
G-d's Covenants. This seemingly obscure Prophecy of Haggai has remained an
enigma¾until last year! It is extremely rare for all three calendars to
synchronize in such a way but in 1998, all three dates fell on the exact
same day:

December 14th on the Gregorian Calendar

25th day of Kislev or Hanukkah on the Jewish Lunar Calendar

24th day of the 9th month on the solar Jubilee Calendar

On that very day the "Throne" of the greatest and most powerful of all
Gentile Kingdoms declared that the Covenant with Abraham would be set aside.
the Land would be taken from the Jewish People and given to their enemies.
Jerusalem would be their capitol. and the Temple Mount would remain the
exclusive property of the Palestinians! This eerily echoes the Greeks who
had said: "There will be no Temple and there will be no dedication!" But the
strength of this Gentile Nation was overthrown. Indeed, the events of that
first Hanukkah foreshadowed the1998 Hanukkah. The "Throne" of a Kingdom was
overthrown¾the President was impeached! Shortly thereafter, Klinton began
bombing Yugoslavia. He formed a coalition and the nations heard the ominous
noise of war!

One by one, various Heads of State were removed from office. some died in
office; some were removed by the will of the people. Oddly enough, for the
first time in US history the Senate refused to remove a convicted President
from office. He remained there to fulfill his destiny. to wreak havoc. to
lay a foundation for certain things to come. This was not an accident! In
the words of Daniel the Prophet ".[the dominion was] taken away. But [it
was] prolonged for a season and a time" (more on this aspect later).

The Countdown: A Summary of those Events
The year1998 saw a series of dramatic incidents. In the fall, Klinton and
his wife Hillary visit the leaders of the EC or European Community-the same
countries and the same leaders that Arafat will meet with in the next few
months.

In November/December, two weeks before the Gaza meeting, Yishar Arafat
announces that: "A Palestinian State means not only Nablus, Ramallah,
Jericho, East Jerusalem and Gaza. It also includes West Jerusalem, Ashkelon,
Tel-Aviv, Netanyah and Haifa!" The additional cities he includes are nearly
one hundred percent Jewish and always have been. This action would literally
bring about the destruction of the Jewish State!

Now, note the following significant events that occurred:

On December 14, US President Klinton meets with Arafat in Gaza and announces
that: ".the US will give full support to the creation of a Palestinian State
in the West Bank and Gaza, with Jerusalem as its Capitol!" .In other words,
the Land will be taken from Israel and placed under the control of the
Gentile Kingdoms. Just a few hours before his announcement in Gaza, Klinton
had met with the President of Israel to "celebrate" the Feast of Lights.
During that meeting he lit the candle to commemorate the first day of
Hanukkah and the dedication of the Second Temple.

In the days following, Klinton returns to the United States and lies to the
American People. He tells them that the Administration is "neutral" on the
question of Palestinian Statehood.

Congress impeaches President Klinton.

Almost at the same time, Arafat launches an international tour with the same
leaders of the European Community that Klinton met with just a few months
before. The purpose of that tour is to follow-up the groundwork laid by
Klinton and to promote: The Right of Self-Determination as stated in the
Palestinian Covenant.

It should be noted that the Madrid, Oslo and Wye accords have provisions
whereby all language in the "Palestinian Covenant" calling for the
destruction of Israel would be officially removed. This has never happened!
Ironically, on December 14, 1998, PLO President Yishar Arafat held up a
flimsy, thin sealed envelope, and said: "This envelope contains a list of
items to be abated from the "Palestinian Covenant as marked by Hillary
Klinton." The PLO delegates that attended the Gaza meeting unanimously
accepted his statement. To this day, no one knows what that sealed envelope
actually contains.if anything.

Mrs. Klinton's marked deletions are irrelevant. It is the Madrid, Oslo and
Wye accords that contain the list of necessary deletions. The truth is that
Arafat has not fulfilled one Jot or Tittle of those agreements. Yet
mysteriously enough, a blind world blames Bibi Netanyahu for blocking the
"Peace Process"! (History seems to repeat itself over and over-the Romans
crucified the Nazarene and then had the audacity to accuse the Jews of
Deicide).

February 1999, Yishar Arafat announces to the Palestinian people that
Klinton wants him to postpone the May 4th deadline to establish a
Palestinian State. His reason? Mr. Klinton wants additional time ".to create
a more positive attitude and support by the American people for the creation
of [that] State." Now what on earth would possess Yishar Arafat to delay the
creation of a Palestinian State and what exactly did Klinton mean when he
said he wanted to "create a more positive attitude" in America?

Impeached President Klinton coerces the NATO nations (that he, Hillary and
Arafat had recently visited) into a full-scale war against Yugoslavia. It
seems Yugoslavia has been oppressing Moslem refugees. Never mind that Kosovo
has always been part of Yugoslavia. Never mind that the Moslems have been
gradually entering Kosovo and attempting to drive out the native Serbian

Two Wrongs Do Not Make a Right
It should be noted here that we in no way condone the brutal methods used by
Slobodan Milosevic to deal with the Albanian Moslems that streamed into his
country. However, he was handling a very real problem. Milosevic and the
duly established government of Yugoslavia were putting down the beginnings
of a revolution. They were deporting those who had no right to legally be in
the country. Yes, Milosevic's methods were savagely wrong. In our concern
for the deadly treatment of the Moslems we have failed to see that the
Moslems were also wrong.

The average American believes that we were helping an Albanian Moslem
refugee (read: rebel) to return to his homeland (read: land that he is
attempting to occupy). We believe that the Serbs have unjustifiably taken
(read: trying to hold onto) from a tyrant (read: the duly constituted
Yugoslavian State of Kosovo).

The people of the United States have been sold bill of goods. We have been
led down the path, convinced that we can't stand idly by and allow a group
of suffering Moslem refugees lose their homeland. True, the Moslems have
suffered greatly at the hands of Milosevic but it is not their homeland.
When NATO forces took action, I was frequently asked by many of the
Researcher's readers, "Vendyl, whose right and whose wrong in this
conflict?" My response was immediate; "They are both wrong!"

Is the present administration really concerned about the suffering of
others? Are they really protecting the helpless victims of "ethnic
cleansing"? The answer to both of these questions came in a July 28th
broadcast of ABC News' 20/20. The segment recounted the massacre of hundreds
of thousands in Rwanda. During a three-month period in 1994, 500,000 lost
their lives. Bodies were literally clogging the rivers of this African
nation. Our government did not launch an all-out offensive to end this
bloodshed? Politically, there was nothing to gain. And this point was
dramatically driven home when the ABC News report hinted that administration
spin-doctors felt they couldn't create sympathy from the white voters here
at home for the victims of African descent.

The smoke had barely cleared in the Balkans when Slick Willie deplaned from
Air Force One, greeted by cheering Albanians as a hero and savior. The
incursion into Kosovo, by NATO and Klinton was good Public Relations. Has he
been able to win the support of the American people for this campaign? We
believe that Klinton will use Kosovo to foster, here at home, a sympathetic
attitude for the creation of a "homeland" for Palestinians. The truth will
be discarded in favor of political expediency.

By now, the parallel and its implications for the nation of Israel should be
obvious. Just as John Hyrcanus in Jerusalem asked the Romans for assistance
with his internal problems, so too the present government of Israel asked
the UN and its member nations for help with its current problems. In return
the Gentile Nations are demanding servitude. History has once again repeated
itself.

Yitzhak Rabin stood on the White House lawn and said: "After the 1967 Six
Day War, I promised the people of Israel that we would never let the
politicians give away the Liberated Territories that we [re-]gained in this
War. We will not betray the sacrifice of our sons, husbands and fathers who
sacrificed their lives. We will never surrender one centimeter of the
historical Land of Israel for political appeasement. I said that then, and I
repeat it today. what we are discussing is total autonomy for the
Palestinians. We are not discussing Palestinian Statehood."

When Prime Minister Rabin made that statement, Klinton, Arafat and Shimon
Peres looked as if they were about to give breech birth to porcupines. Rabin
stood by his guns on the issue of: "Total autonomy for the Palestinians" but
he also stood by his condition: "no Palestinian Statehood!" His insistence
may have cost Mr. Rabin his life. When he was assassinated, he was replaced
by Shimon Peres, a man who was not only willing but also eager to create a
Palestinian State

The bombing of Yugoslavia is the first foul weather front of a gathering
storm. The "great rushing noise" of these gale winds. the thunder and
lighting in Europe. are a portent of things to come and the "Storm" is
moving Eastward.

These are the very descriptions used by Haggai the Prophet. "And I will
'shake' all Nations" (Haggai 2:7). The Hebrew for "I will shake" is V-tier '
ahd-ti. The word Haggai used however is not V-tier'ahd-ti. The word he uses
is actually "V-Ha-Rah'ash-ti." Rah'ash means a "great rushing noise," as in
".the noise of war."

Wag the Dog
Klinton probably never learned or didn't care that Yugoslavia fought with
our Allies in both World Wars. Under the Nazi occupation, Yugoslavia still
managed to put together an armed force. Thirty-two Jewish commandos
parachuted into Yugoslavia to organize Jewish resistance. Among them was
Hannah Senesh, a war heroine who was eventually captured and executed.

The Moslem Albanians however, joined Hitler's SS Troops. Yugoslavia
eventually succumbed to communism. Unlike the other Balkan states, it
remained an independent country that was never part of the USSR.

The media no longer refers to these conflicts as "religious wars." Instead,
they employ "newspeak" and politically correct verbiage such as "ethnic
cleansing." The term is used to rouse political opposition and/or support
depending on the desired outcome. In this case, the "terrorists" become
"freedom fighters." Albanian Moslem insurgents are now "refugees." Thanks to
Bill Klinton and his bombing of Yugoslavia, they are back in what is
suddenly their true homeland, Albanian Kosovo. There's one problem..Kosovo
was never part of Albania. That's OK. Wag the Dog hard enough and you can
get people to believe just about anything.

As a point of clarification: Albania, the real "fatherland" to these
so-called refugees, will not let their Moslem brothers return from Kosovo to
Albania because their "colonization" efforts require a "refugee problem." It
is exactly like the "refugee problem" created by the UN in 1948.

On November 29, 1947, the UN Resolution 181 was passed giving Israel less
than 10 per cent of what had been originally mandated. The Jews accepted but
the Arabs did not. They wanted all of the land. Almost immediately Arabs
began to flood into the country preparing for the destruction of the tiny
new state. By the time the Jewish State of Israel was declared on May 14th,
1949, Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq attacked it. The outgunned,
outnumbered Israeli forces survived for 20 months finally defeating combined
a fighting force of five Arab armies.

Those who fought against Israel who came from the Arab countries were not
allowed to re-enter their respective homelands. Their own people made them
"refugees". Fifty years later, there are still "refugees" living in these UN
camps!

The phenomenon of the perpetual refugee was the catalyst for Joan Peter's
bestseller From Time Immemorial (Harper & Row, 1984). Ms. Peters, a former
White House Consultant and a free-lancer for CBS News, began working on a
story to expose the "plight" of those in the UN refugee camps in Israel. The
scales fell off of her eyes when she discovered that the UN had subtly
altered the definition of a refugee. The alteration allowed that anyone
arriving in Israel just two years before the 1948 War of Independence could
be called a refugee. This "two-year presence" definition was a glaring
contradiction to the claim by the Palestinians that Israel had been their
homeland for thousands of years.

Inexplicably, magically, an Arab fighter arriving in 1947 from, for example
Syria, by UN definition could claim Israel as his homeland. By the way,
UNRWA, the UN organization that runs these camps receives less than one per
cent of its budget from the entire Arab world. (Source: "Financial Situation
of UNRWA/Budget Estimates for 92-93")

The Moslems in Albanian want their "refugees" brothers to exist so that they
can be forced back into Yugoslavia for the purpose of creating a Moslem
State inside traditionally Christian Yugoslavia.

Kosovo is the European model for what the UN and NATO plan for Israel. This
European scenario has its exact counterparts in the Middle East: Israel
verses the PLO. World governments depend heavily on Arab resources like oil.
Therefore, anything that placates these Arab States automatically becomes
part of the global agenda. Mr. Klinton's concerns are not for the Moslems in
Yugoslavia. He merely sees them as pawns in a game of international chess.
For the most part, America has fallen for his war-hook, line and sinker.

Unexpectedly, two days after the bombing of Yugoslavia began; significant
event #7 took place. Mu'ammar Qadhafi of Libya released the two terrorists
that allegedly perpetrated the Pan-Am 103 bombing over Locherby, Scotland
for trial in the Hague. Was this a coincidence? Or, was it part of a larger
agreement. perhaps a show of good faith in return for something promised?
And if so, was it timed to help Mr. Klinton "create a more positive
attitude" towards the major players in this game.

On March 25th, 1999, significant event #8 occurs when the 15 nation European
Union declared from Berlin, Germany that, ".Within one year, an independent
Palestinian State will be established in the "West-Bank" and Gaza." The
declaration also specifically stated that: "Israel had no power to veto' the
ultimatum!"

Is it necessary to be reminded that the EC (European Council) and EU
(European Union) comprise the same political body as the Nations who are
members of NATO? The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is the
militia of the EC and EU. There are plans that call for converting this
militia into the Western European Army (WEU) within the next 12 months

The Bilderbergers, an organization that promotes one-world government and
works in conjunction with the Council on Foreign Relations, announced that
there will be a Palestinian State. (Significant event #9)

The Winds of War
The reason for Mr. Klinton's visit to the EC countries shortly before his
December 14, 1998, announcement should now be that much more obvious; and
the reason for Arafat's meeting with those same leaders immediately after
the declaration in Gaza should be even more obvious. The Thrones of the
Kingdom's of this world, it seems, have decided that they have the authority
to determine the future of Israel. Now what was that about a covenant with
Abraham?

By May, the thunder, lighting and winds of war in Europe had reached
Israel. No longer were they confined to the Balkans. Those voices that were
not privy to the intent of the globalist factions, however, particularly
those in Russia and the Nations of the Warsaw Pact, were vehemently opposed
to the actions of the stigmatized US President and his accomplices in NATO.
Likewise, many people in France, Greece, China and several other member
countries also condemned the Klinton War against Yugoslavia.

Could this be the "kick off" to a WW III War-Game? If things continue along
the lines of Haggai's scenario, then the 4th Quarter of this game could find
the United States playing out its part in Gog and Magog.

Israel: the Radial Axis of World History
In the early 1950s, I published a paper entitled "Israel, the Radial Axis of
World History", which presents a much different take on the words of the
prophet Daniel. While all the other commentators associate and interpret
Daniel chapter seven as a restatement of chapter two, I view the two
chapters differently. I interpret chapter two as a vision of the Ancient
World Empires, whereas the Beast Visions of chapter seven relate to the
Modern World Empires.

The text in Daniel states plainly and repeatedly that the vision in chapters
7, 9-10 and 12 are for the "Time of the End." Daniel's vision in chapter
eleven should follow chapter four. If you read the last verse of chapter ten
and the first verse of chapter twelve, skipping over chapter eleven, you can
see the connection.

Daniel 10:21 states: "But I will show you that which is noted in the
Scripture of Truth. there is none that holds with me in these things but
[the Angel] Michael your Prince." Now skip to chapter twelve and read Daniel
12:1: "And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great Prince that
[shall] stand up for the [future] children of your people.." The content and
substance of the text in Daniel 12:1 picks up exactly where the text of
10:21 stops. Many Jewish commentators believe that it was Ezra who collected
the writings that we now call the Book of Daniel. It is possible that Ezra
purposefully placed the order of the chapters out of sequence.

As we will illustrate, these two prophets and their visions are heavily
related.

There are five references in Daniel 12 that reveal the visions are for the
Last Days and the Time of the End. The "Four Beasts" in Daniel 7 and the
amalgamated Beast of the Apocalypse in chapter thirteen of Revelation,
parallel one another. They also represent the political alignment of the
various world powers that precede Gog and Magog in chapters 37 and 38 of
Ezekiel. According to these texts this amalgamated Beast will have the
"Mouth of a Lion, the Body of a Leopard, the Feet of a Bear and the Tail of
a Dragon."

Every school child knows that nations are represented by symbols. Just as
the United States has the Eagle, Britain displays the Lion. Russia is
referred to as the great Bear and China exhibits the Dragon as its national
emblem. Students of prophecy are aware that these Beasts symbolized four
ancient world empires.but they also represent four modern world empires.

In a series of lectures given in1982, I stated that the Dragon (China) would
become allied with Europe to destroy the Eagle (USA). That has not yet
happened but with recent revelations linking Mr. Klinton to the theft of our
nuclear secrets by the Chinese that particular event may yet take place.

We find that the meaning of the vision of the Eagle was not given to Daniel.
However, details as to what would happen to this Eagle were revealed in the
Book of II Esdras. This prophetic text written by the prophet Ezra (Esdras
is the Greek corruption of Ezra). His writings, like Daniel, also employ
"Apocalyptic" Beast Symbols to describe the great world empires of the Last
Days.

Wings Plucked from the Back of the Lion!
Returning to Daniel, his description is uncanny-the vision of the Lion that
had Eagle's wings sounds amazingly familiar ".but the Eagle's wings plucked
themselves from the back of the Lion and made the Lion to stand on its feet
as a man" (Daniel 7:4).

Indeed, the Eagle (USA) plucked itself from the back of the Lion (England)
in 1776. King George's treatment of the common man was inhuman. The American
Revolution grew out of this treatment. After the revolution, the disposition
of the Lion toward its people was transformed into a more humane society. As
Daniel says: "And a man's heart was given unto it."

Both Daniel and Esdras describe precisely the Eagle's history and nature,
revealing how the United States is different from the other four beasts of
Daniel chapter seven and the Amalgamated Beast of Revelation chapter
thirteen. This is to be expected since they were on different continents
separated by not only a vast ocean but by ideologies. The Four Beasts
represent European Gentile Kingdoms. While in contrast, the Eagle is aloft
and separated geographically and idealistically from the Beast of the
European Continent.

Esdras describes the Eagle as a government controlled by its body.that is,
the people themselves. Americans understand that their government is unique.
It is a government ".of the people, by the people and for the people." The
Prophet Esdras put it this way ".and the voice came not from the Eagles
head, but from it's Body." In other words, its power did not come from the
leaders but from the people themselves.

In time, however, the Eagle would undergo a metamorphosis. It would change
from a government of the people into a less than perfect two party political
system. In Esdras' words: "And behold, there arose a Second Head out of the
Eagle against the First Head. While the Second Head reigned, the First Head
slept. Yet, while the First Head reigned, the Second Head slept." This two
party system would, in time, undergo even more dramatic changes.

Esdras goes on to describe what can only be a Civil War, "And behold, the
body of the Eagle was divided and strove inside itself." During the
presidency of Abraham Lincoln, certain powerful interests saw an opportunity
to gain control of the money supply and a great war between the states was
the result. Party politics inevitably degenerates into what is called
"cronyism" where political hacks scratch one another's backs and enrich
themselves at the expense of the people. This in turn presents an
opportunity for rich and powerful people to abuse the system and take
control.

Those who attempted to gain such control during the War Between the States
eventually succeeded. In 1913 the Federal Reserve Act was passed which
officially transferred these powers to a private cartel. The word "Federal"
is misleading. It is no more federal than "Federal Express."

After the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, Congressman Charles Lindbergh
Sr. (father of the famous aviator) warned the American People that it would
".establish the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs this
Act, the invisible government by the money power. will be legitimized. The
new law will create inflation whenever the trust wants inflation. From now
on, depressions will be scientifically created." The political power of
those who fostered this system is without equal.

Esdras describes the same event as Congressman Lindbergh thus: "And behold,
there arose another Greater Head [a new power base from] between the first
two heads. The Great Head gazed upon the heads that slept [the two parties]
and the [new] head reigned, yet it never slept." This Greater Head that
arose between the two lesser heads after the War Between the States was
exactly what Lindbergh described after the passage of the Federal Reserve
Act. The system it engendered devoured the traditional principles embodied
within the Constitution and spit out increasing political corruption in
return.

The early transformation of a single headed Eagle into the twin heads of a
two party system removed us one step away from a "a government of the
people" that directly elected a president and was beholding to know one.
The parties concerned were "of the party by the party and for the party."
Nothing can illustrate this better than the Democrat's acquittal of the
Republican's impeachment of William Jefferson Klinton.

The new federal government that was envisioned and described in the
federalist papers became increasing powerful and eventually came under the
control of small groups of dominant men who were able to exercise influence.
After President Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Bill he said: ".we have
come to be controlled by small groups of dominant men." and that ".we dare
not speak above a whisper when we speak in condemnation of [them]." By 1916,
the Constitution and Bill of Rights had been usurped so many times by
sophistry in the Courts that it bore little resemblance to that envisioned
by the Founders.

Esdras emphasized another change in the Eagle. He said it: "spread out its
two wings." The Right Wing of Conservatism opposed the Left Wing of
Liberalism. The Right Wing of Conservatism tends to adhere to the original
concepts of a "Republic" while the Left Wing of Liberalism wants to rebel
against it. In general, those on the left would like to see it changed from
a "Nation under One G-d, [Who is] indivisible," into a "United Nations
without any G-d at all."

The Left has more solidly allied itself with elements of the "world body
politic" than the Right. The liberals of the Left Wing are willing to
sacrifice traditional rights to life and property where necessary to achieve
its ends. Both are guilty to some extent. Ultimately, both are responsible
for expelling any mention of G-d from our educational system under the
unwritten false pretense of "Separation of Church and State." It should be
noted however, that this alleged "separation" does not appear anywhere in
the United States Constitution or any other founding document. It did
appear, interestingly enough, in the Constitution of the former Soviet
Union.

In contrast, the Constitution of the United States contains what is called a
dis-establishment clause that prohibits the government from establishing a
particular religion as a "State Religion" that must be adhered to by all of
its citizens. In other words, Congress can pass no law that would require
everyone to become, for example, a Baptist! By prohibiting the government
from enacting legislation that would establish a state religion, it
guarantees "Freedom of Religion" for all. This includes even "strange"
religions like the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas. as long as they do not
infringe on anyone else's rights to life or property.

Since the Supreme Court outlawed the Ten Commandments from even appearing on
public school property, we see violence, wickedness rebellion and anarchy
almost everywhere. In consternation, the media "wants an answer," but then
proceeds to look in all the wrong places! Every major media group without
exception asks why? They say: "How could the Littleton, Colorado High School
massacre happen?" It happened because G-d was expelled from our Schools.

In the end, a State that denies G-d under the guise of a supposed separation
of church and state can't help but destroy itself. And the only thing that
can save it is a restoration of the principles and laws set forth by G-d!

The Seven Laws of Noah
A Nation that rules out any mention of G-d becomes a Godless nation-a nation
ruled by anarchy, amorality, wickedness and violence. Moral and social
justice fade away under these conditions. Twice, President Ronald Reagan
stated that the Judicial System of the United States was based on the Social
and Moral Code of the Seven Laws of Noah. The Joint House of the One Hundred
and Second Congress unanimously ratified this Statement in March 1991.

The Seven Laws of Noah are not a religion. Nor are they based on what one
believes, but rather on conduct, and what one does. The Seven Noahide Laws
are axiomatic laws of social conduct and moral behavior. No one can join a
Noahide organization. Everyone is already a descendant of Noah.

The Seven Noahide Laws are found embedded in every culture from the Code of
Hammarabi through the Laws of the Media Persians, Greek and Roman Law,
British Parliamentary Law and the Judicial System of the American Republic.
The Seven Noahide Laws are Universal. They are even found in the Christian
New Testament. And they are vividly spelled out in the Islamic Koran.

A Bird in the Hand

The fall and the destruction of this Eagle should certainly be of interest
to all of us. From Esdras description, the end of the Eagle as we know it,
is imminent: "And the Eagle became exceedingly great. His Great Wings spread
over the whole Earth. And none could stand against him. Then, as I beheld,
the Great Eagle became divided into four parts and his body was burned with
fire."

France, Russia, Greece, all the Warsaw Pact Nations and even China have
condemned the Eagle and described its actions as "ambitious" ".and the Eagle
became exceedingly great!"

The term "Ugly Americans" has been used to describe rude U.S. citizens who
visit foreign countries. But it is even more applicable when applied to its
national character. America is often looked at as a bully. The evil
predatory nature of this Great Eagle of Daniel chapter seven, Esdras II:
11-12, and Revelation chapter thirteen, justifies its destruction.

G-d Almighty, judge of all men, judges men according to their actions and
their deeds. Each of us has an inclination toward both good and evil. Man is
judged according to the balance.

Likewise, nations are both good and evil and they too are judged according
to the balance. G-d judges countries on a national level just as he judges
man on an individual level. But, national judgements are based on government
policies and conduct. What will be America's epitaph? What will happen to
the Kingdom that plucked itself from the Lion's back? And what will happen
to the other animals?

Weighed in the Balance
We will continue to view Daniel's vision through the looking glass of the
Latter Days. Hence, the four beasts will be revealed in their modern
incarnations. The first three, the Lion, the Bear and the Leopard were
weighed in the balance: ".and their Dominions were taken away. Yet their
Lives were prolonged for a season and a time" (Daniel 7:12)

The First Dominion was that of the Lion (England) or Great Britain. Its
dominion was "taken away" when its power and position crumbled following WW
II. Still, its existence is "prolonged for a time and a season" to fulfill
its part in G-d's final plans for Israel.

The Second Dominion to be "taken away" was that of the Leopard, or Germany.
It was crushed at the end of WW II as well. Daniel, however, said that the
Leopard would have four heads! The head that was crushed after WW II was
only the third head. The Germans called it the Third Reich because it was a
third attempt to restore the Holy Roman Empire. But the Leopard had four
heads and four wings. What about the fourth head of this Nation?

In 1982, I stated in my audiotape series on Daniel, that ".there is yet
another head to rise out of the leopard!" In 1990, nearly ten years later,
the deadly "head wound" to the third head of this Leopard was healed. After
WW II, the nation and its capitol were cut in two by allied forces to
prevent it from ever rising again. The Berlin Wall dramatically demonstrated
that division. But in 1991, amazingly enough, the Berlin Wall "fell" and a
once divided nation became whole. A unified Germany was resurrected.

The third dominion to be "taken away" was the Bear or USSR. It was taken
away with the disintegration of the Soviet Empire in 1991. Today the USSR no
longer exists yet its life like that of the Lion and the Leopard, has been
"prolonged for a time and a season" to fulfill its part in the events of the
Last Days. The dominion of the USSR submerged in sequence with the emergence
and the healing of the "Deadly Wound" to the Leopard's third head that had
been inflicted in 1945. Now the "Fourth Head" of the German Leopard has
risen.

The Leopard
The First Reich had its beginnings with Charles Martel and his grandson
Charlemagne when they stopped the Islamic Conquest of Europe. This was the
beginning of a new Holy Roman Empire. They did not actually refer to it as
the First Reich. It was those who tried to re-establish it, later on, that
used such terms.

This First Reich or "First Head of the Leopard" was the Dynasty of the
Habsburgs (it can also be spelled Hapsburg). The Dynasty was also known as
the "House of Austria" even though the Habsburgs were of German decent. The
proponents of this First Reich regarded it as a re-establishment of the Holy
Roman Empire. Its size and scope was the greatest of all the sovereign
dynasties of Europe at that time. It began in 1020 and did not end until
1871.

The Second Reich or the "Second Head of the Leopard" was led by the Prussian
Hohenzollerns (1871-1918 WW I).

The Third Reich or "Third Head of the Leopard" took the form of Nazi Germany
(1933-45).

Just as the leopard signified ancient Greece's swiftness in battle, the Nazi
blitzkrieg (or lightning war) swept across Europe. The Nazi Panzer divisions
swiftly devoured everything in their path. Equally chilling is the reminder
that the murderous Nazi SS insignia was a Death's Head that resembled the
face of a leopard.

The Fourth Head of this empire is now alive and active in its persecution of
Israel. The name of the Main Battle Tank that Germany sells to the Arabs is
called "the Leopard".

This Fourth Beast of Daniel emerges in the Last Days in a consortium with
and melting into one with the Apocalyptic Beast of Revelation chapter
13:1-10. "And I John stood on the sand of the sea, [Israel] and behold a
Beast rose out of the sea [the Gentile Nations] having seven heads and ten
horns. And upon the horns, ten crowns. And on the crowns were the names of
blasphemy. And the Beast I saw was like unto a Leopard, [Germany]. His
mouth was the mouth of a Lion [England]; His feet were the feet of a Bear;
[Russia] and the Dragon [China] gave him his power and seat of great
authority.

The Rat
Klinton is the spokesperson for this amalgamation of nations. It is Bill
Klinton who is promoting the will of this consortium, both in Kosovo and the
Middle East. If Klinton funded his election with money received from China,
then quite literally, the Dragon gave him his power and seat of great
authority. Hard to believe?

The Year of the Rat written by two veteran congressional staffers, Ed
Timberlake and Bill Triplett reveals how the 1992 and 1996 Klinton campaigns
received generous "contributions" from individuals and groups associated
with Chinese military and intelligence agencies. They allege that Chinese
agents became the number one donors to the Klinton campaign in 1992. And in
Klinton's re-election bid in 1996, he received substantial donations from an
American defense contractor who was working with a major missile company in
China. It is, of course, still a Communist country. It is neither Christian
nor Moslem. They have armed Iran with their long-range Cocoon missile. Both
Iraq and Iran are declared enemies of the US and NATO. Not withstanding,
they are committed to the destruction of Israel.

China builds very sophisticated long-range missiles that were once plagued
by faulty, antiquated guidance systems. Now, for some reason that problem
has been corrected. Could aid have come in the form of stolen American
technology? An August 3rd Washington Post story reported that China had test
fired what Western military analysts believe was a three-stage DF-31. The
missile is fired from a mobile launcher and has a range of around 5,000
miles. It also has nuclear capability. The same article quoted Richard
Fisher, an expert on Chinese security, "American technology has made the
difference in the success of this missile...the American taxpayer deserves
royalties..." Military experts further speculated that the system could be
used against American military targets.

The Eagle Has Landed
The Eagle indeed spread its wings over the whole earth. The manner in which
it dealt with the Native American Indians was just the beginning. The
government that was originally established by the people and for the people
has often ignored the wishes of the people. We have witnessed our government
's meddling in the affairs of other countries. Cuba is a classic example.

Earl Smith, the former US Ambassador to Cuba said ".Castro could not have
seized power in Cuba without the aid of the United States. I had first hand
knowledge of the facts which brought about the rise of Fidel Castro. The
State Department consistently intervened-positively, negatively and by
innuendo-to bring about the downfall of President Fulgencio Batista, thereby
making it possible for Fidel Castro to take over the government of Cuba."

The US State Department supported and armed Castro and helped him to
overthrow Batista in 1959. Batista was not a Communist as evidenced by the
standard of living in Cuba. Castro on the other hand was an avowed
Communist. Cuba is a prime example of one such affair that backfired. The
result was the first Communist country in the Western Hemisphere.

It was only after Russia placed missiles ninety miles off the US coast in
1961, that Cuba became a real issue of interest to the US. That dangerous
situation was the most vicious confrontation between the Bear and the Eagle.
But it was the Eagles fault. It was our government's hunger for power that
caused them to interfere in Cuba's internal affairs in 1959. Go to your
public library and you can find any number of books, published by former
Intelligence operatives who expose U.S. attempts to destabilize foreign
regimes all over the world.

These days, the State Department openly wages ideological warfare in the
form of propaganda. It recently poured in millions of dollars to support of
Israel's Labor Party. This liberal, left wing party has consistently worked
to create a Palestinian State. During the recent Israeli elections, Klinton,
at U.S. taxpayer expense, sent his own propaganda machine, headed by James
Carville, to campaign against the incumbent Likud candidate Benjamin
Netanyahu. Klinton did this because Netanyahu's conservative, right wing
party opposes the creation of a Palestinian State within Israel.

It is morally wrong and Constitutionally unlawful for the United States to
interfere in the election process of other countries. It is even more
felonious when an American politician solicits foreign financial support for
such election. Moreover, to compromise the security and lives of the
American people and all mankind by selling China our top secret missile
guidance systems in exchange for financial campaign support is beyond the
definition of High Treason!

Disarmament?
While Klinton was probably arming China with our most advanced military
systems of mass destruction, he was hell-bent on disarming all Americans.
Yes, Klinton is playing a very dangerous game and every American is losing.
Since the Littleton, Colorado massacre, Klinton's leftists want to outlaw
the right to bear arms as secured by the Constitution. They even want to
regulate the manufacture and sale of toy guns and computer war games for
children. In an added irony, as Klinton gathered liberal support to take
away guns from Americans, he led the opening volley of the bigger NATO guns
against Yugoslavia.

Does the United States have any strategic interests in the Balkans? If it
did have a direct interest in the Balkans could it legally involve itself?
Of course not! It would be unconstitutional to interfere without a formal
declaration of war by Congress. Even that would be dependent upon the threat
of a Yugoslavian invasion against the United States. That is not likely to
occur.

How could the Klinton Kamp rationalize the incursion onto foreign soil by
these joint forces? Just read this startling quote from U.S. News & World
Report's June 28th issue. It outlines the newly emerging foreign policy
known as The Clinton Doctrine.

".America should use overwhelming military force to intervene in countries
facing human-rights disaster such as Kosovo when three conditions are met.
There must be a compelling national interest, a moral imperative to save
lives, and the potential to dramatically improve the situation through U.S.
action.."

Pardon me, but the man with no morals will decide on "moral imperatives" for
another nation!

And what about "compelling national interest"? Can this mean that if the
latest CNN Poll reflects our sudden dislike for a certain people we should
march on them? Has Slick Willie suddenly donned a cape to "fight for truth,
justice and the American way", even if another nation is not interested in
the American way? As a people have we become that dangerously arrogant?

Make no mistake; what unfolded in Kosovo was basically a joint US and NATO
military rehearsal.a test ground for later military action in the State of
Israel. The game plan is designed to force Israel to establish a
Palestinian State at the cost of its own destruction.

The precedent has been set. Now Israel knows that the US and their NATO
allies are willing go to war in order to "create" a Moslem State wherever
they deem necessary. They have demonstrated their resolve! When the
ultimatum is delivered for Israel to "create" a Palestinian State "or else
they will go to war," Israel will know they are not bluffing. Why? Because
they went to war for the Moslems in Kosovo!

Ignorance is Not Bliss

How can this outrageous scenario be executed? It can happen because far too
many Americans will not learn from history..because they do not know
history. Even if one is unaware of the Biblical promises for National
Israel, there are many historical promises made by world powers who once
recognized the right of the Jewish People to their National Homeland. The
subtle lies of "newspeak" have done a good job of indoctrinating the
uninformed, even the apathetic among us.

Now for a little comedy relief, here are some recent examples of newspeak:
the Branch Davidians lived in a compound..homosexuality is a
lifestyle..former Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was always referred to as
Israel's hard-line leader.a Jew living on a settlement in the so-called West
Bank is a right-wing extremist and of course, true peace will only come when
Israel restores Palestinian homeland.

There is no need to "restore" something that never existed. There has never
been an official State of Palestine. The name was only a geographic
designation. It is historical fact that in a sheer display of anti-Semitism,
the conquering Romans called the region Syria Palestina. By using the name
of the extinct Philistines (in Hebrew, Pulishtim), the Romans hoped to wipe
out any vestige of Jewish identity. Historian Bernard Lewis vividly points
out that shortly after the Moslem conquest of the land, Christian mapmakers
kept the name Palestine alive in Christian countries. Professor Lewis goes
on to say, "By the early 20th Century, with the predominance of European
influence.the name of Palestine came to be used even in [what is now
Israel]...The name was not used officially and had no territorial definition
until it was adopted by the British."

For countless years, there were simply Arabs, Armenians, Turks, Druze,
Circassians and yes, Jews living in a geographic region referred to a
Palestine. There was no ethnic or religious groups called Palestinians! Just
ask any archaeologist how many Palestinian artifacts have been uncovered in
the land of Israel.

Quoting author Joan Peters, again,"Buried beneath the propaganda-which has
it that the Jews "returned" to the Holy Land after 2,000 years of
separation, where they found crowds of "indigenous Palestinian" Arabs is the
bald fact that the Jews are indigenous people who never left, but who have
continuously stayed on their Holy Land. It was only 'politically' that the
Jews lost their land."

The truth is that Klinton and his crowd have about as much concern for the
Palestinians as their predecessors did for Cuba before they created Fidel
Castro. It is the age-old story. global politics and the power and profit it
can bring. They do care about Arab oil but Israel stands in the way of
business as usual. It is an obstacle to world trade because relations with
Arab States will depend upon agreements that call for Israel's destruction.

It's also a stumbling block to the world's religions. Witness the shocking
remarks of John Strugnell, Chief Editor of the Dead Sea Scroll Committee.
Strugnell made statements to reporter Avi Katzman in the Hebrew daily
Ha-Aretz in October of 1990 that explain why he and his cronies held the
Scrolls hostage nearly 50 years before publishing any significant
translations. His words represent a larger agenda: "An anti-Judaist, that's
what I am. There, I plead guilty. I plead guilty in a way that the
[Catholic] church has pleaded guilty all along, because we're not guilty. We
're right. [Judaism] has survived when it should have disappeared.the
occupation of Jerusalem-and maybe the whole state-is founded on a lie."
These sentiments are not the isolated ramblings of one man. Sadly, he
represents the world-view of many that hold seats of power.

Certainly there are multiplied millions of Christians who revere the Bible,
venerate Judaism and honor the Jewish people. They strongly support the
Nation of Israel. Most of these particular Christians actually read the
Bible. The same is true of many Moslems. There are, however, so-called
religious leaders who would applaud the destruction of the Jewish people and
their state. Such anti-Israel convictions came to light with the recent
publication of a letter sent on June 22, 1943, by Pope Pius XII to the
President Franklin Roosevelt via U.S. Ambassador Myron Taylor. Shockingly,
during the height of the Holocaust, the Pope stated his objection to the
formation of a Jewish homeland.

UN-True

By invading the Balkans, Klinton succeeded in getting the media's attention
off his immorality. But this action served an additional objective. His
real goal was to achieve what he told Arafat. "To give him time to create a
more positive attitude and support by the American people to support [i.e.
force] a Palestinian State in Israel."

Klinton's next demand will call for a Palestinian Land Bridge. a connection
between the West Bank and Gaza. This scheme would cut Israel in half. It
would slice through territories that were part of the Land of Israel before
the 1967 War.

Klinton's vision is a hallucination! His dream is a nightmare! His fantasy
about Palestinian Statehood is a ghastly illusion! Should Klinton's
aspirations ever become a reality, we would wake up to find that all the
territories between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea had become
terror-tories! And if that's not enough. there's more!

In 1947, UN resolution 181 called for the partitioning of Palestine into two
states, one Jewish and one Arab. Klinton has somehow "ruled out" this
Resolution. Dennis Ross, the American mediator in the Klinton Klub added
that: ".the 1947 UN resolution is abrogated and is not relevant to the
current peacemaking efforts." If Klinton "rules out" the resolution that was
the basis of Israel's right to exist, isn't that tantamount to ruling out
Israel's right to exist?

There is, however, another perspective to Klinton's statement. The
resolution in question was the same resolution that gave rise to an Arab
Palestine. If the basis of Israel's right to exist has been abrogated then
so has the basis for an Arab Palestinian State. Moreover, when the original
UN resolution was issued, Judea and Samaria were considered part of British
Colonial Palestine. The Jews finally liberated their Land from the British
but before the British pulled-out, they forcibly evacuated the Jewish people
from Judea and Samaria so that Jordan could control the area.

Oddly, the Jordanians occupied this same territory for nineteen years but
during that time there was no call for a Palestinian State by anyone.
including the Palestinians! The so-called "right to self determination" (or
Statehood) would therefore be void by default. If there was no request
issued for statehood then why is there a call for one now? The answer:
Islamic expansion. Placate the Arab States at any cost! What's good for the
Arab is good for business.

Versailles: The Origin of Self Determination

Self-determination is a phrase tossed about liberally by the Palestinians.
However, following World War I, in 1919, the president of Czechoslovakia
originally promoted the idea along with U.S President Woodrow Wilson. Our
leader, Wilson, also used the concept to foster the concept of a Jewish
Homeland in the region then called Palestine.

President Benes of Czechoslovakia and President Wilson said that distinct
national groups were entitled to countries of their own. They should be
allowed to pursue their destinies as they saw fit, without interference. For
the first time Canada, Australia, South Africa and a roster of European
regions were officially recognized as sovereign nations.

The world leaders of that day who were the architects of the 1919 Treaty of
Versailles all agreed that the Jewish People should settle the region then
known as Palestine. The rest of the land from Iraq to Yemen would go to the
Arab people. And nowhere in this treaty is there a call for a Palestine for
Arabs or a Palestinian State for a Palestinian People.

Those same leaders who showed so much foresight and common sense did not
count on undying strain of anti-Semitism that would soon reveal itself in
the proud British Lion. When Britain created the Hashemite Kingdom of
Transjordan in 1921, they created a "Palestine" for the Arabs. This
partition was supposed to leave room for a Jewish state as well but it never
materialized. It did not become a reality until Menachem Begin drove the
British out of Colonial Palestine in the War of Liberation in 1947.

Thank to that war of liberation, there is a Jewish State as originally
called for along with a Palestinian State for Arabs (i.e. Transjordanian
Palestine). But the Moslems want another Arab Palestine to be carved out of
what is presently Israel (just like the US and NATO want a Moslem State
carved out of what has always been Yugoslavia).

The Arabs want more than the original Palestinian State. They also want
certain property that is now Israel's. including Land that was liberated in
1947 and 1967. According to the Geneva Convention any land gained in a war
of attrition legally belongs to the victim, not the aggressor. Israel is the
only nation that has ever been asked to return lands to their aggressor!
They also want El Kuds, the Holy City of Jerusalem. The Koran says that
Jerusalem should be left to the Jews! But somewhere in the midst of their
lust for Land and their various Islamic conquests, they seem to have
forgotten what their prophet commanded.

The UN supports their conquest. It has even helped to secretly arm the Arabs
(Israeli Defense Forces have actually caught the UN in the act of
transporting arms for the Arabs but this news is suppressed). When the
Israeli Army was forced to go into Lebanon to protect its borders in 1982,
they found a huge underground complex with a tunnel system. That complex was
filled with enough arms to field a one-million-man army. The Israeli's found
orders for an invasion of Israel that were written in Russian and several
other languages. The weapons they found included over 1500 M14 rifles
manufactured for the United States Army. The United States government
claimed that these weapons were sold to Saudi Arabia and that they resold
them. Were they telling the truth?

HaShem Preempts a Gog/Magog Invasion.

The documents found in the complex indicated that an invasion of Israel was
imminent and that there were many countries involved. It was a massive
effort. But the Israeli incursion into Lebanon inadvertently foiled the
plan. It was divine providence!

To no one's surprise, the media dropped the above story like the proverbial
hot potato. Our source was an acquaintance actually involved in disposing of
the munitions that were recovered from the complex. According to him, it
took the Israeli Army several months to remove all of the military equipment
that had been stored in preparation for this invasion.

There were over forty tractor-trailer trucks filled with weapons like
Soviet-made Kalaschnikov rifles. In addition, there were untold munitions
and explosives. Some of these munitions are still in use today by the
Israeli Army. They also found a Soviet-made boring device that had been used
to create the tunnel complex. There were hundreds of thousands of RPG and
Katyusha rockets and mortar rounds.

The majority of Americans support Israel. However, there are agencies within
the US government that are actively involved in covert projects that are
detrimental to the preservation of Israel. If you don't believe that then
check out the bestseller by John Loftus and Mark Aarons entitled The Secret
War Against the Jews: How Western Espionage Betrayed the Jewish People.

UN-Resolutions
After the 1967 War, Israel recovered Land that was originally promised to it
and Land that was originally inhabited by Jews from the beginning. Then UN
Resolution 242 was issued. It stated that all the areas liberated by Israel
in 1967 should be added to the demands of Resolution 181. In other words
they couldn't keep it (even though it had originally been promised to them).
After the Yom Kipper War in 1973, UN resolution 338 made even more
ultimatums. The May 24, 1999 Klinton statement that the solution to peace is
the annulment of the UN Resolution that gave Israel its right to exist! Does
all of this sound familiar?

Arafat Apes Adolf
Arafat and the PLO are following the same tricks that Hitler pulled in
Europe sixty years ago. The strategic dilemma in the Middle East has a
striking historic parallel to events in pre-World War II Czechoslovakia. It
stood in the way of Hitler's plans for overrunning Europe. He knew they
would be a formidable adversary for three reasons: a massive military, a
solid arms industry and finally there was the matter of a nearly
impenetrable natural defense in the form of the Sudeten mountains bordering
Nazi Germany. These mountains stood in the way of the Czech heartland and
it's capital city of Prague. Since the nation was also under the protection
of the Versailles Treaty, the other European powers were pledged to come to
its aid.

The Big Lie
Hitler crafted a plan to subjugate Czechoslovakia from within its own
borders. The key was the predominately German population of
Sudetenland.Hitler bankrolled a new Sudetenland political leadership. These
patsies began to demand the right of self-determination for the so-called
"oppressed" German population of Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland. Suddenly, the
Germans living in Czechoslovakia were unhappy. Hitler's agents masterminded
riots and public demonstrations causing the Czechs to use force against the
agitators. This was followed by the spread of propaganda, which
characterized the government as oppressive. The Czechs were accused of
terrorism against the poor Germans.

Author William Shirer, who was a reporter in Europe at the time, distilled
the truth simply when he wrote, "Thus the plight of the German minority in
Czechoslovakia was merely a pretext ... for cooking up a stew in a land he
[Hitler] coveted, undermining it, confusing and misleading its friends and
concealing his real purpose ... to destroy the Czechoslovak state and grab
its territories..."

How did the rest of Europe respond to this lie? They believed it. To win
further win sympathy for their plight, the Germans practiced what has become
known as "turnspeak". They turned the blame back on the Czechs for trying
to precipitate an all-out war in the region. In other words, the Czechs in
their attempt to hang onto their land were ready to plunge all of Europe
into war. World leaders decided that something had to be done to preserve
peace at any cost.

Peace in Our Time?
The European leadership fell for this charade. Meanwhile, the European and
American Press were easily hoodwinked by Hitler, too. They castigated Czech
President Benes for his war-mongering ways. This was the same gentleman who
helped draft the Versailles Treaty and practically invented the phrase
"self-determination. Now he and his people were being flogged with these
same words.

Land for Peace
Again, in another striking parallel to current events, Hitler gave the Czech
government a deadline for allowing Sudetenland to declare itself a separate
state within Czechoslovakia! If they did not give in, he would be forced to
use military action to aid the poor, oppressed Germans of Sudetenland. The
British and the French pleaded with the Czech president to give in to Hitler
's demands.

Ignoring the Versailles pact, Britain and France agreed that the Czechs must
give up the Sudetenland for "the maintenance of peace and the safety of
Czechoslovakia's vital interests."

The British and French said that in return Czechoslovakia would receive "an
international guarantee of the new boundaries... against unprovoked
aggression. " If these terms were not met Czechoslovakia would be left to
fight Hitler without their aid.

Acting as an emissary of peace, Britain's Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain
shuttled across Europe repeatedly in an attempt to stem the tide of war.
Unbelievably, in a last minute move, Hitler agreed to "reclaim" Sudetendland
for Germany peacefully. Bowing to this shoddy political ploy, Czech
President Benes announced Czechoslovakia would meet Hitler's terms, adding
sadly, "We have been basely betrayed."

Chamberlain announced in words that have since become a painful mockery, " I
believe it is peace in our time." The sovereign nation of Czechoslovakia
had been forced to trade Land for Peace. The Czech military began a troop
withdrawal from the "occupied territory" of the Sudetenland.

As the Nazi propaganda machine fabricated more stories of "Czech oppression"
. In his twisted view, there was nothing left for Hitler to do except defend
the Germans living in Czechoslovakia. Months later, the German divisions
were goose-stepping their way through Prague. The Big Lie had worked.

Though this sad story is a part of history we recommend reading Benjamin
Netanyahu's salient account of the fall of the Czech nation in his "A Place
Among the Nations" (Bantam Books, New York, 1993). Why is an Israeli
statesman writing about World War II Czechoslovakia in a book on modern
Israel?

Peace Now?
It does not take a degree in Political Science to connect the dots in the
above scenario to the current problems in Israel. As I said, the parallels
are striking. In fact, they are down right frightening. It's as if the world
leaders have decided to re-make the same movie. Hey, it worked once before.
We'll even use some of the same characters but this time we'll change the
location. And dear reader, if you been watching this drama unfold you are
probably well aware that we are about to fade-in to Act III.

Mein Klinton
On the same day that Klinton made his announcement concerning the 1947 UN
Resolution, he again made the statement that "The Administration is neutral
on the question of Palestinian Statehood and on whether the Palestinians
should have part of Jerusalem." Yet, in Gaza on December 14, 1998, and in
his letter to Arafat, Klinton pledged full American support for the
"Palestinian State." Is this why political cartoonists make Klinton's nose
so prominent? Could it possibly be growing?

Now, even NATO admitted that the bombings in Kosovo were less than
twenty-percent effective. Perhaps what Klinton should have asked his
"peace-partner, Mr. Arafat how to get Milosevic bumped off. In 1981, Arafat
called for the assassination of Anwar Sadat. Three weeks later Sadat was
dead. Arafat and Klinton have a great deal in common. Klinton is just more
sophisticated! He has the more effective public relations machine capable of
making his activities more palatable to the public.

But their similarities don't end there. Arafat has his PLO and Klinton his
ATF. More than any other president, Klinton has sought to gain and maintain
maximum control of such government agencies through certain policies that
ensure their complete cooperation. Moreover, he has repeatedly used those
agencies in an illegal and unconscionable manner

As Governor of Arkansas, for example, he used the State Police as his
personal pimps (Arkansas State Police have come forward to publicly admit
their part in this wrongdoing). Now, on the federal level, the BATF does his
bidding.

The treatment of the Branch Davidians is another example of Klinton's abuse
of power. These people did not drink, smoke or have any illegal weapons on
their property. What was an agency that investigates the use of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms doing there? Yes, they were anti-government and
anti-Klinton! For sure they were a little crazy, but if we murder everyone
in America who is a little crazy, then a lot of us are going to be on the
endangered species list.

Klinton's own "Democratic" Party will suffer, indeed, the American people
and even the entire world will suffer more than can be imagined by the
Partisan act of the US Senate who refused to remove this manipulating,
gerrymandering, ego-maniacal sociopath from office.

Were it not for a belief in G-d and knowledge of His ultimate plan for
Israel, one might easily despair. However, the destiny of Israel is somewhat
different than that envisioned by Mr. Klinton and his international cartel.

In my opinion, the Nazi-like tactics are being used on American Citizens.
They have been orchestrated to determine how the American people will
respond. Do the American people have the resolve to demand justice in the
face of the illegal use of government force? Were these acts an experiment
to see how far the establishment could go?

The only hope for this country is an awakening of the American people. a
revolt against politically fabricated polls and media-mind-control. It is
apathy toward the situation that gives these evil forces the power to
persist. "All that is required for evil to triumph is for good men to do
nothing."

Every American with a sense of moral decency should cry out like the
Prophets of Old and demand justice. They must continue to do so until this
man and his machine are removed from office. They must vote against every
Senator and Congressman, Republican or Democrat, who acquitted, supported or
aided this impeached President in any way.

We know that there is someOne else..behind the thunder, lighting and winds
of war in Europe! That same "someOne" sent His Holy Prophets to tell the end
of things from the beginning.

The Brotherhood of Man
Does the Torah have an answer to this dilemma? Do the Holy Prophets address
the present Serbia and Kosovo predicament? The answer can be found in the
lives of Cain and Abel.

The Midrash asks the question "Why did these brothers fight?" In the case of
Cain and Abel there were three points of contention. Their first conflict
was because of religion, the second was over property and the third was over
a woman.

In the Torah we read how the conflict started, ".and Adam had carnal
knowledge with his wife; and she conceived and begot Cain [and a girl]. Eve
said: 'I have begotten a man from HaShem'! And she again begot Abel [and two
girls]. And Abel became a sheep herder (Rancher). However, Cain became a
plowboy of the ground (Farmer)." Then, ".as time passed, Cain brought the
produce of his land as an offering unto HaShem. Abel too, brought from his
produce the fattest first born of his flocks. And HaShem stared pleasantly
upon Abel and his roasted lambs." In contrast, "HaShem ignored Cain and his
vegetarian offering."

"Cain became very angry [with Abel] and his countenance fell [toward
HaShem]. So, HaShem said to Cain: Please explain why you are so enraged [at
Abel] and so furious with me that your face and eyes cannot lift up to me?
If you do well, as did Abel, will you not also be accepted of Me as he is?
Since you have not done well, the sin-offering lamb is outside, beside your
door. Abel's desire is to please you, his elder brother, and for you, the
first born, to govern over him [in a righteous manner]."

But religion was not the only factor in Cain and Abel's conflict. The
Midrash also reveals that Abel's property: his herds, meat, wool, milk and
butter were also in-greed-ients in the conflict. Cain was jealous of Abel
and his successful acquisition of property. The entire struggle in Israel
today is over the acquisition of property, especially the Land itself-and
this same argument has been going on since the days of Ishmael and Isaac.

In truth, the Land is owned by G-d and he can "lend" it to whomever He
pleases. In the meantime, He gave the Land (of Israel) to Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob and their descendants as an inheritance forever. When the Jews occupy
the Land, it flourishes. When they are driven out, it becomes a desolate
wasteland. This is how G-d looks at real estate in general and Israel in
particular. Moreover, it is how man should relate to the concept of property
if he wants to live in peace and have prosperity.

While religion and property may be the most common cause of conflict, some
of the most violent conflicts arise over women. The Midrash explains this
third source of conflict between Cain and Abel as follows: Cain had one twin
sister. When Abel was born, G-d blessed him with two twin sisters. But Cain
claimed that since he was the firstborn he was due a double portion and had
a right to the "extra" women. Abel rightfully refused and said: ".since she
was born with me she is mine!" The dispute escalated and Cain hated his
brother even more. All of this led to Abel's death. Ever wonder how many men
have been murdered because of their desire for woman? Kings have even
started wars over women!

Cain's desire knew no limits. He realized that if he killed Abel, he could
take all of Abel's property including both women as spoils of war. And, at
the same time, he could eliminate the source of his religious shame and have
revenge.

When he actually carried out this violent fantasy, G-d judged him and drove
him out of the Land that had originally been given him. He made him a
fugitive, a wandering vagabond. Just so, G-d will eventually judge all men
and nations that murder in the name of religion and property or for the
desire of women.

These three aspects of the evil inclination and their respective penalties
are an immutable truth. a fundamental axiom that cannot be set aside. They
are at the core of every dispute. In the cosmic scheme of things such
transgression will not go unpunished and will be set upon the soul ".even to
the third and to the fourth generation" (Exodus 34:7).

A Reflection of Man's Soul
The intent of religion is goodness, virtue and righteousness. But when it
becomes entangled in man's desire for recognition, property or sexual favor,
it can become twisted and distorted. Religion becomes the most wicked,
savage and evil force on earth when this occurs.

The most dangerous thing about religion is that it short-circuits the
logical function of the intellect. It causes a man to stop thinking for
himself. It subjects him to the will of those who are willing to control him
and benefit from that domination. The awe-full fear of the Holy G-d is
replaced by the awful fear of the holy-man who uses it for his own purposes.
A Hell awaits all that disobey this holy-man. His subjects are manipulated
by the "Do's and Don'ts" of his non-scriptural legalism.

Many of the clergy of our traditional, modern-day religious establishments
impose this same legalism. And many of the people who are involved with
those establishments live a life of Religious Purgatory. The statements of
such clergymen have also spawned the massacre of millions of Jews in the
Diaspora and the acts of terrorism in Israel. The same faulty reasoning has
been used since the dawn on man to justify his atrocities in the name of
religion.

Religion procreates introverted egotism: "Our Church, Synagogue or Mosque is
the only True Religion. we have a monopoly on the truth and no one else has
it. we have all the truth that is necessary. any other truth is unnecessary
truth. Everyone must be converted to our theology. Turn or burn!

Religion propagates Evangelism. and while there is nothing inherently evil
about the desire to share ones faith and beliefs with others. that desire
must be carefully balanced against the desire of others to listen. It must
give the person who chooses to listen the right to question. and the
opportunity to respond without being threatened or intimidated.
Unfortunately, choosing to remain an "unbeliever" has cost many innocent
people their lives. especially (but not exclusively) the Jews.

Religion in its imperfect state perpetuates war. Constantine had a vision of
a Flaming Cross in Heaven that was transformed into a Flaming Sword. A voice
from Heaven commanded him, "By This Conquer!".and he did! Then Mohammed had
his revelation of the Koran and his vision of two swords crossed over the
Gates of Paradise which gave rise to Jihad, both then and now!

The Conquest of Canaan by the Tribes of Israel was decidedly. After the
Flood, Nimrod the son of Cush subjugated mankind and formed the first United
Nations. Nimrod, also known to his subjects as Narmer or Amraphael conquered
the Land of the Hebrews and resettled it with his cousins, the sons of
Canaan (his uncle). It was called "the Land of the Hebrews" because the
Hebrews held the original and rightful title to the Land.

The Israelites (one of the Hebrew families) reclaimed the Land of the
Hebrews and liberated it from the Canaanites who had stolen it by conquest.

In the process, all of the Canaanite tribes except one were driven from the
land. There were seven Canaanite tribes that were to be expelled. Joshua,
however, did not battle the Gergisites because when they heard of Israel's
deliverance from Egypt, they voluntarily returned to the Land of Cush or
Africa, allowing the Land of the Hebrews to its rightful owners.

If this same Biblical/Legal principle was applied today, then the Albanian
Moslems in Kosovo would return to Albania, or if they remained they would
voluntarily subject themselves to Yugoslavian rule. They would also stop
killing the Serbians for their land. But, Islamic plans for expansion call
for conquest and submission. They do not provide protection for the property
rights of those who stand in their way. The Jewish people have never been
guilty of this. The extent of their "conquests" has been limited to
recovering Land, which is legitimately theirs and has been taken from them
by such people!

In 1917, for example, when European Jews began to return to Israel, they
found that there were already Jews living in the Land. There were a few
Arabs too, but the population was predominately Jewish. The Jews who
immigrated to Israel did not displace or murder anyone. The Land to which
they returned was a desolate wasteland. They lived in peace with what few
neighbors there were. And despite the propaganda advanced by Mr. Arafat,
"millions of Arabs" have not "been living in Israel for hundreds of years."
To the contrary, all available records including the UN rolls, Turkish
statistics and British rosters show that there were only a handful of Arabs
living in what is today Israel.

Those same records show that the vast majority of the population (small
though it was) was Jewish and that it had been as far back as history
records. The Jews have occupied the Land since time immemorial. They have
never vacated it or abandoned it; or given up their "right" to the Land in
any way. And their perpetual presence in the Land substantiates their claim
to the Land.

The Jewish declaration stands in stark opposition to the claim of the
gentiles and their various gimmicks. Rome is a good example. While their
military legions may have occupied the Holy Land, it was never established
as "Roman" soil. When Emperor Constantine learned of Marcion and Clemont of
Alexander's dogma (i.e. that Christianity was the "New Israel") he saw an
opportunity to officially claim the Land for the Roman Empire. To do this he
supplied his troops with "holy baptismal waters" and sent them all over the
Roman World to "sprinkle" here and there. As the troops "sprinkled," they
declared his dominion and that of the Holy Byzantine Church.

It was a good try. but the "technique" failed to meet the standard by which
such claims are established. The fact that it was a political ruse is a
matter of record since Constantine himself refused baptism until his dying
day. After all, if Constantine did not accept the validity of Baptism then
why should anyone else. The idea of "sprinkling" the Land in order to claim
it is ludicrous!

Constantine's attempt to claim the Land was obviously not a religious quest.
If it had been an honest attempt to seek or do G-d's will, he would, at the
very least, have been baptized according to the tenants of his so-called
belief. But he was not. Constantine merely used Christianity for political
purposes and his "sprinkle" campaign was nothing more than an exercise in
subterfuge for the benefit of the masses. It is the same type of subterfuge
that Conquerors have used for centuries to deceive their respective people.

The Byzantines were no different. They were murdering marauders that forced
their State Religion on the entire former Roman Empire. As we have already
seen, this sad chapter of history never really ended and this particular
episode has found a counterpart in the present.

What Goes Around Comes Around
The echoes of the past always have their counterparts in the future.
Constantine, for example, was born in the region now known as the Balkans
around 272 CE. The Italian Dictator Benito Mussolini was also born in the
Balkans (as a Croatian). And none of the USSR's revolutionary leaders were
Russians. Most of them were Bolsheviks from the Balkans and White Russia. It
is a geopolitical vortex that regularly spews such conflicts.

Between 1860 and 1917, the Sultan of Turkey transferred tens of thousands of
Moslem Bosnians and people from nineteen other Moslem countries to Palestine
in order to offset the Jewish majority at that time. These and similar
relocations are detailed in Joan Peters' From Time Immemorial.

Oddly enough, during that same period of time (1860-1917) the same Sultan
was also forcing Moslem Albanians into Kosovo for the very same purpose:
Islamic Expansion! In other words, the problem of Islamic expansion into
Kosovo has been going on since the mid-eighteen hundreds! The problem is not
new! In the cosmic scheme of things there is an unusual parallel.

The Kosovo Liberation Army or KLA is the PLO of Europe. The KLA trains
alongside the PLO. Both are funded by the same Moslem countries. If someone
in America gives to an Arab charity it goes to Islamic expansion efforts,
most of which are violently militaristic. It fulfills their purposes and
"the Gospel according to these militants" is the crucifixion of Judaism and
Christianity!

Reborn: A Gospel of Destruction
Both Jew and Arab rejected the Byzantine Gospel. The Jews rejected it
because Christianity was re-cycled Judaism filtered through a sieve of
idolatry and paganism. The Arabs rejected Christianity because it was not
monotheistic. Christianity is Western and Caucasian. It is alien to Arab
culture and government.

Enter Mohammed and his Koran. This new system of belief rapidly took form in
the context of Islamic culture. But the shape and texture of its expansion
bore a remarkable resemblance to that of the western "Crusader" who showed
them how to conquer! The Moslems learned from the Byzantine just how
effective the sword could "spread the gospel" (of political power). They
used it that much more zealously.

With the help of the Persians, the Arabs and the Jews, the Land of Israel
was liberated from the Byzantine Empire in 614 CE. Within 200 years, Islam
swept across most of North Africa, Asia and into Europe. It didn't end until
Charlemagne put a stop to it. Now, with the dawn of the 21st Century,
Islamic expansionism is once again reborn. The midwives of this rebirth are
the US and NATO. What Charlemagne had halted1200 years ago, the US and NATO
have managed to resuscitate in 1999!

The battle is presently raging on two fronts, Kosovo and Israel. In Israel,
the war wages over Islam's "Right of Self Determination" or more
specifically, their perceived "right" to destroy the Jewish State using the
"Palestinian Covenant." The conflict in both arenas stems from Religion,
Land and a Woman called Hagar. It is a conflict of brother against brother.
Again, as in the case of Cain and Abel. one brother is innocent.

History is littered with bodies from hundreds of wars that have been fought
over religion, this one in particular. Millions of people have died over
theological differences. They have all died in the names of their various
gods (and some of these wars have been fought over seemingly minor
differences). For example, Yugoslavia's Eastern Ethnic Serbs are Orthodox
Christians, yet they made war with Roman Catholic Croatia.

The Bosnians, on the other hand, are Moslems (the Yugoslavia national
framework, is actually a conglomeration of Moslem, Eastern Orthodox
(Christians) and Roman Catholic constituents). In Yugoslavia, the Bosnians
(who are Moslems) and the Serbians. They are Christian and both speak the
same language. But interestingly, some write in the Cyrillic alphabet while
others use the Latin. It is this area that spawned World War I and II.

Kosovo: A Catalyst for Another World War
Coincidentally, a spark in Serbia ignited World War I. June 28, 1914.
Serbian animosity against the Habsburgs reached a climax when the Austrian
(and coincidentally Roman Catholic) Archduke was assassinated. In Sarajevo,
a Serbian named Gavrilo Princip (an Eastern Orthodox Christian) pulled the
trigger.

This conflict is rooted in religion and property. It is easy to see how such
matters can be used for political purposes. One of the oldest techniques
used by any tyrant is "divide and conquer." The task is made so much easier
thanks to religious differences. On a higher level, it is the alignment that
is necessary to sink the hook deep into the jaws of Gog in Ezekial 38:4.

Following World War I, the Treaty of Versailles recognized the region as
the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. In 1929 the name was changed to
Yugoslavia. During the Nazi invasion in World War II, the country's future
leader, Marshall Tito, formed one group of resistance fighters.

Tito was a communist and would take the country in that direction following
the war. He later severed ties with the Soviet Union while Yugoslavia
pursued "independent national communism."

After Tito's death, Yugoslavia became increasingly divided over economic
policy. Serbia favored a strong central state. It lent support to the
socially backward south (which included Kosovo) in order to create the state
that it envisioned. Croatia and Slovene, on the other hand, wanted to move
toward a free market economy. They wanted a government more in keeping with
Western ideas. They wanted to divorce themselves from the traditional
socialist agenda that called for the "transfer of wealth" to support a
strong central state.

In 1991,failure to reconcile these competing objectives contributed to the
breakup of the "Old Yugoslav Federation". During that period, US President
George Bush and his Secretary of State Jim Baker, were too involved with the
Gulf Crisis and their attempts to create a Palestinian State to be concerned
with Yugoslavia.

In time, however, the situation in Kosovo would escalate and the creative
minds at the US State Department (the same ones who brought you the
overthrow of Batista and the subsequent Cuban Missile Crises) would come up
with a final solution. They would conceive of a brilliant plan! First they
would schedule a dress rehearsal in the ever-volatile Balkans. If it played
well, they could take the show on the road for a full-blown performance in
Israel.

HaShem said through Ezekiel ". it shall also come to pass, that at the same
time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought"
(Ezekiel 38:10).

If there is any doubt as to the overall scheme of these leaders or that
there is in fact an emerging world government, consider the words of PLO
Chairman Yishar Arafat in his most recent announcement in Ramallah on June
13, 1999.

According to the Jerusalem Post and the Palestinian news agency, Yishar
Arafat demanded that ".the 'international community' .end the Israeli
occupation of Palestinian land just as it ended the persecution of the
Albanians in Kosovo." Arafat further stated, ".just as the international
community managed to put an end to the oppression in Kosovo and reach a
peace agreement, the international community is called upon to revitalize
the peace process in the Middle East and put an end to Israeli occupation of
Palestinian land."

Remember that Chairman Arafat is simply aping his idol, Adolf Hitler. He is
promoting the Big Lie. And he is aided and abetted by the media.

The Propaganda Machine
The propaganda machine portrays reality according to the model promoted by
the New World Order. This model is blueprint designed by a select group.
They are led by the firm belief that only they know what is really good for
all mankind. These are not comic-book villains hatching intricate plots to
achieve global dominion. They are intelligent, well-meaning leaders from
every walk of life who fervently believe that their joint goals will bring
lasting peace to the world. And that is what makes them so insidious. Their
standard for what constitutes good is faulty. Their arrogance has blinded
them to deny the One who created good..the G-d of Israel.

Since the Jews are a "stumbling block" to the goals of the international
community, they are guilty and the Arabs are innocent! Arab terrorists can
therefore murder innocent Jews and the press will ultimately place the blame
on Israel. The killings happened because of the "stalled peace process" they
will say. If an Israeli kills one Palestinian (usually in defense of life
or property) the media will turn it into an international incident complete
with political overtones.

To see how the Western media is manipulated and in turn manipulates the news
from Israel, we recommend "Eye on the Media". Published in 1993 by the
Jerusalem Post, it was written with great honesty and insight by the paper's
former Executive Editor David Bar-Ilan. For an up-to-date reality check

East Reporting in America at http://world.std.com/~camera

The international community is in a ticklish predicament. If they do not
play along with the Arabs, they risk losing control of valuable resources
(like oil). Or worse, they risk further acts of terrorism in Europe and the
United States. Remember the bombing of the World Trade Center and the plans
that were found to blow-up the Holland Tunnel in New York? Even now, as I
write these words, the experts are voicing genuine concern over where
Islamic terrorist Oslama Bin-Laden will strike next. They believe it will be
close to home.

The Prophet Zechariah best summed-up the consensus of this "international
community" when he said, "Behold, I am making Jerusalem a cup of poison for
all the peoples all around. On that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome
stone for all people and all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in
pieces, though all the people of the earth shall be gathered against it. In
that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Israel and he that is
feeble among them on that day shall be as David and the House of David shall
be as G-d as the angel of HaShem before them" (Zechariah 12:2).

A Cup of Poison: The Arsenal
Jerusalem has indeed become "a cup of poison. and a burdensome stone" to the
gentile nations and that is why those nations are willing to sacrifice
Israel. The Arabs continue to threaten the Gentile Nations with their acts
of terrorism and their potential for death and destruction. The Gentile
Nations not concerned for Israel's "security" .they are concerned for their
own! The pot is boiling and here are a few of the poisonous ingredients:

Egypt: Egypt was part of the Gulf-War Coalition. As part of their
"agreement" with George Bush, in return for their part in the US campaign
against Saddam Hussein, Egypt received seven billion dollars in aid in the
form of having their debt "forgiven". They were also given another three
billion in military aid which they used to junk their old Soviet equipment
and upgrade to the "American standard."

Since the beginning of their alliance with the US, they have bought one
thousand five hundred M1A1 Abrams Tanks (this is the main battle tank
currently used by the American Forces). Five hundred of these tanks were
shipped complete and an additional one thousand were assembled in Egypt
using kits provided by General Dynamics. In addition to these M1A1 tanks
they were given "free of charge" more than one hundred M60-A3 battle tanks
from Europe (all they had to do was pay the shipping). Egypt spent another
ten billion to purchase massive numbers of LeClerc Main Battle Tanks from
France. They received a gift of more than one hundred twenty F16 fighters.
The balance of the additional military aid was used to acquire one hundred
F15-E tactical fighter-bombers, which are the most advanced aircraft in the
world. Saudi Arabia bought another seventy-five (Israel could only afford
twenty).

Egypt also bought one hundred Tornado Fighter-Bombers. These twin-engine,
ground-attack, air-superiority fighter-bombers just happen to be the
backbone of NATO. Egypt has been training for the past 15 years with
personnel from the US Army 82nd Airborne Division in order to bring their
fighting-force up to the American standard. According to Janes Defense
Weekly, Egypt successfully completed its first combined services maneuver.
It was a joint operation that simulated the repulsing of an attack from the
"Aggressor in the East" (i.e. Israel). All of which demonstrates an
increased structural awareness in battlefield management that they lacked in
the past.

Syria: Syria has a large arsenal of biological and chemical weapons
including one of the largest stockpiles of Sarin and VG nerve gases in the
world. As part of the "Gulf Coalition" they received one billion dollars in
cash which they used to buy one thousand Russian T72 Main Battle Tanks. They
also purchased their initial complement of Nordong-C Missiles from Korea
(although they now have the capability of producing these missiles
in-house). Syria is closely allied with the more radical Iran and Iraq.

Iraq: Contrary to popular belief, Saddam Hussein was not disarmed or
neutralized by the Gulf War. His Scud stockpiles are intact and so is his
nuclear capability along with top secret nuclear test facilities. Iraq's
biological and chemical production facilities are also fully functional and
they have massive stockpiles of Anthrax and various nerve gases. Toward the
end of the Gulf War, Iraq fired two missiles at Israel that were filled with
concrete.

Most people laughed, believing that Saddam had run out of ammunition. What
our government failed to reveal was that concrete is used to simulate
nuclear payloads in test launches. Those funny "concrete missiles" were
fired at Dimona, the site of an Israeli nuclear facility. The launch was a
simulation to determine the accuracy of the Scud as a delivery vehicle in
preparation for a future nuclear attack. The test was a success!

Iran: Iran is a radical, fundamental, Islamic state and according to the
Janes material, it too possesses nuclear weapons. Iran's nuclear warheads
were acquired from the Russian Mafia who stripped them from former Soviet
bases after the break-up of the USSR. The Janes report adds that more than
twenty nuclear devices are "unaccounted for" and that most of these are
believed to be in the possession of Iran. Meanwhile, Iran is expected to
complete, sometime within the next twelve months, the development of an
intercontinental ballistic missile that is capable of targeting mainland
America. Iran and Islam consider the United States to be "the Great Satan."

They also believe that Y2K is a western plot designed to subjugate the
people of Islam. This belief is found in scattered reports suggesting that
an Islamic Jihad will occur before the Year 2000 to preempt this so-called
plot. This is why the Senate voted to install one of the first missile
defense shields around the US. Iran is a very scary culture. Those familiar
with the mind of the Islamic Fundamentalist know that these people are more
than willing to make everybody a martyr for their cause.

The reason why the nations are willing to sacrifice Israel and rally behind
the Arab "cause" should be crystal clear: "If you can't beat em' . join em'
." Jerusalem has become "a cup of poison. and a burdensome stone" to the
nations and those nations are trembling. But, they believe they can placate
the Arabs by helping their brothers expand Islam, first in Kosovo and then
in Israel.

The End Result
A year ago, the average American had no idea where Kosovo was, let alone who
lived there or what historical events occurred there. The few informed were
aware that the Balkan's were the "Powder-Keg of Europe", perpetually engaged
in civil strife. These are conflicts arising primarily from religious and
ethnic fanaticism. Today, these conflicts have received international
attention, but only because it suits the purpose of those who seek dominion
and control and wish to capitalize on it.

The torrential winds of war have swept around the world since December 14th!
The European Council's Ultimatum for the establishment of a Palestinian
State within one year is no less than a Declaration of War against Israel by
the Gentile Nations. The Great Eagle, having become exceedingly great, is
leading the way. According to the Prophet, it will soon be divided and its
Body burned with fire. Klinton has given China the means to start that Fire.

As a native-born American and Texan, I am saddened by the fate that I see
for the future of my country. It is not the end of the World. Nor is it
"doomsday" for the American people. It will however be the end of the Eagle,
as we know it. The four divisions of the Eagle will survive. Like the first
three Beasts of Daniel, the Eagles Dominion was taken away, but its life
prolonged for a season and time to fulfill its role in the final conflict.

In terms of the vast ocean of time and space, the significance of this once
great Eagle ".is like a bitter drop from a bucket and [is] reckoned like the
dust rubbing off a scale; behold, He will cast away [such nations] " (Isaiah
40:15). Our nation will be judged according to its allegiance to the
Creator. And we, individually, will be measured by our allegiance to the
eternal precepts of G-d, Torah and Israel.

Millennium Fever
As Chaim Potok wrote in Wanderings (Ballantine Books, 1978), "In the year
1000, panic swept Christendom: this was to be the year of the end of the
world and the Last Judgement". The author recounts how this Dark Ages
version of Millennium fever would burn for nearly a hundred years until it
finally burst into the flames and blood of the infamous Crusades. Tens of
thousands of Moslems and Jews were slaughtered by the Christians who cut a
bloody swath of destruction to the gates of Jerusalem in their quest to save
the Holy Land from unbelievers.

What a disappointment! The Crusaders came, conquered and waited around for
their "Christ" to appear for an eschatological rendezvous! Everything was
prepared for the marriage supper of the Lamb but the Bridegroom never showed
up!

Now, a thousand years later, as we approach a Second Millennium on mankind's
calendar, the Torah Scroll is re-rolled, as history becomes prophecy again.
We see unmistakable signs of a modern crusade as Klinton calls for Christian
and Moslem Nations to join together. This time, both "Christ and Mohammed
will join forces in their attempt to drive out the infidels (i.e. the Jews)
from 'their' Holy Land before Christ's Second Coming." It looks as if
history might repeat itself, but there is one important difference. G-d has
other plans.

In the final analysis Israel will have a glorious future. And it will
eventually be Israel who the nations will look to for guidance:

".thus says the Lord of Hosts; in those days it shall come to pass, that ten
men . out of all languages of the [gentile] nations. shall take hold of the
skirt ( the Tzit Tzit or fringe of the Talit) of him that is a Jew saying we
will go with you for we have heard that G-d is with you"

- Zechariah 8:23

They will go and they will learn! In the meantime, we can and will continue
to dedicate ourselves to making that glorious future a reality.
