Muslim Journalist on Trial for Supporting Israel

by Hana Levi Julian

(IsraelNN.com) Muslim journalist Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury is on trial in Bangladesh for the crime of supporting Israel, although the official charges are listed as treason and blasphemy. Choudhury, who has urged the Bangladeshi government to recognize the State of Israel, was back in the courtroom Thursday to face allegations of spying for the Mossad, Israel’s international espionage agency.

Although the government privately agreed to drop the charges, which officials quietly admitted were false, the Public Prosecutor said in the brief court session that he intends to proceed with the case.

A new trial date has been set for July 18th. If convicted, Choudhury will be executed by hanging or be sentenced to 30 years in prison – itself a death sentence, according to Bangladeshi sources.

The Muslim writer was arrested several years ago by agents of the previous government as he was leaving the country for a speaking engagement in Israel. The initial charge was violation of the country’s ban on travel to the Jewish State, which officials used as an excuse to torture and hold the journalist in prison for 17 months.

The real issue, according to the Independent Media Review Analysis (IMRA), is his Zionism, which he expresses in articles that also expose the rise of radical Islam in Bangladesh.

Intense pressure by U.S. Congressman Mark Kirk (R-IL) and human rights activist Dr. Richard L. Benkin led to Choudhury’s release, but the reprieve was temporary. A resolution by the U.S. Congress in March of this year, calling on the government to drop the charges went unheeded.

According to IMRA, there is enough evidence to prove Choudhury’s innocence. The Bangladeshi government, say numerous advocates for the Muslim journalist, knows the charges are false. A coup in January 2007 brought in a new administration, which claims to be free of Islamic radicalism, but the conduct of Choudhury’s case belies the statement.

His brother, Sohail, who sent a desperate appeal to the international community for assistance in saving Choudhury’s life, says the charge stems from “rumors originating in Saudi Arabia.”

“His country proclaims that Shoaib’s support for Israel is treason because it is in opposition to their policy and that is blasphemous, a charge they find convenient……..He is on trial because he writes plainly about the danger of extremist madrassas teaching children as young as five to hate Jews and Israel…..Shoaib works tirelessly for interfaith understanding. Bangladesh considers this treason and blasphemy,” wrote the journalist’s brother, who appealed to the international community to intervene in the case.

Terrorists Deny Abbas's Disarm Claims

by Aaron Klein, WorldNetDaily.com

(IsraelNN.com) Members of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' declared military wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, today denied claims by Abbas he asked the terror group to turn in their weapons, stating officials instead have encouraged them to continue their "resistance" activities.

Abbas pledged during a summit with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert Monday he would immediately dismantle all militias in the West Bank not connected to security forces of his Fatah party. Abbas deputies have been telling the international media the Al-Aqsa Brigades agreed to turn in their weapons in exchange for guarantees that Israel not try to arrest or kill them.

"No one from Abbas' office ever asked us to disarm," Nasser Abu Aziz, the deputy commander of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in the northern Samaria, told WorldNetDaily (WND). "We will never disarm until all issues are settled, including a complete Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and Jerusalem and the right of return for all Palestinian refugees."

Abu Yousuf, a leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in Ramallah, told WND Abbas' claims the Brigades will disarm "are more of a message meant for the Israelis, the Americans and the international community." "No one (from Abbas' office) addressed a single member of the Brigades and asked us to turn in our weapons," he said.

Zacharias Zubeidi, leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in the northern Samaria city of Jenin, told WND the decree from Abbas' office for armed groups to be dismantled "has nothing to do with the Brigades. It's meant for Hamas. Abbas recognizes the Brigades as a legitimate source of resistance."

In March 2002, after an Al-Aqsa Brigade suicide bombing in Jerusalem, the group was designated as a foreign terrorist organization by the United States Department of State. In a scenario similar to Abbas's statements this week, late PLO Leader Yasser Arafat publicly condemned the Brigade while days later a Brigade leader, Naser Badawi, told the New York Times that Arafat had, at that point, never approached the group to ask it to stop its suicide bombings.

Together with the Islamic Jihad terror group, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades took responsibility for every suicide bombing in Israel the past two years. The Brigades regularly carries out shooting attacks and has taken credit for firing hundreds of rockets from the Gaza Strip aimed at nearby Jewish population centers.

Many members of the Brigades openly serve in Fatah militias, including Force 17, Abbas' presidential guard units which serve as de facto police officers in the Judea and Samaria.

In line with pledges made at Monday's summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Abbas' office today issued a decree for all armed groups to turn in their weapons.

"On the basis of the declaration of a state of emergency in the Palestinian territories, and by virtue of my authority, all armed militias, groups and brigades that do not belong in practice to the security services shall be treated as illegal organizations," read the first order.

"The government must halt the phenomenon of armed groups, prevent the bearing of arms and confiscate guns, explosives and any type of weaponry purchased illegally, since they endanger the public order," the decree continued.

Fatah offers Al-Aqsa Brigades leaders shelter
Sources in the Al-Aqsa Brigades said officials from Abbas' office encouraged them in recent days to tell members of the international news media they are ready to hand in their weapons.

"But on the ground, not a single weapon has been turned in and it will remain this way," a Brigades source said.
Brigades sources said Fatah officials have invited some Brigades leaders to seek shelter in PA security buildings in Judea and Samaria.

Some Brigades members the past few years have lived regularly in PA compounds, including the Mukata, late PLO Leader Yasser Arafat's headquarters in Ramallah.

The Brigades sources said they were asked to leave the compounds last month, after the Israel Defense Forces threatened operations to arrest Brigades members. But the Brigades sources said they were told this week they could return to the PA compounds.

"It seems the threat of arrest from Israel for the time being is no longer there," said a Brigades leader.

These Islamic barbarians are smart. They picked up on the fact that puffed up gullible politicians making a name for themselves hear only what they want to hear. Islam knows they can use the pride of the politicians to their advantage. That is why Abbas can decree all arms be turned into him in Judah and Samaria knowing it will never happen, but the politicians will only hear his words despite what the reality on the ground may be. Olmert and Bush want to be lied to. If Abbas told the truth, and said he could decree until he was blue in the face, but the terrorists operating in Judah and Samaria will never turn in their weapons then both Bush and Olmert would tell him not to say anything at all. It is because Abbas says what they want to hear that he is getting all these millions upon millions of dollars.

The Road Map is based totally on the premise that we keep our word, and the Arabs lie. This fact is all that keeps the Road Map alive. The Arabs that do tell the truth say they will never rest until every Jew living in the Holy Land is dead. This phony peace plan called the Road Map dissolves on it's own once the truth be told.

The latest truth is that the Olmert government has given assurance to the barbarians of Judah and Samaria that they need not fear that the IDF will come after them. They once again have safe-haven in Palestinian Arab strongholds where Abbas has just taken control. These are the very people his decree to turn in their arms was given. I suppose this is more of that good will Olmert has become so famous over. What a shock should the IDF go after them, and kill them for their barbarous acts against the Jewish civilian population. How Bush would be beside himself if the IDF raided Palestinian Arab strongholds of Abbas in Jewish controlled Judah and Samaria where the Al - Aqsa Martyrs Brigade and Islamic Jihad prepare their child suicide bombers to attack Israeli children.

Folks, this is the politics of peace in the Holy Land. I hope you can see the truth through all the lies? Peace is only going to come through the return of the LORD Jesus Christ. It is never going to come through the good intensions of multiple religious politicians. It is only the Christ of the Bible who is without spot or blemish who can establish true peace in the Holy Land, and throughout the world. This miraculous Third Exodus of our generation is the first step! The Kingdom of heaven is at hand! The same Christ of whom John the Baptist introduced to the world is coming again. He is coming in judgment! The lying politicians have their place in the fire and brimstone of an eternal hell. The greatest lie is to decree yourself a Christian without ever having come to Christ. The eternal Lake of Fire will be filled with such! Friend, what about you? Will you be counted among those who came to Christ, and are born again, or will you be counted among the liars? The choice is yours. Won't you come to Christ, and live? It is not by doing your best. It is by coming to Christ.

Galatians 2:20-21

20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

KJV

 

 

Flaming Car Rams U.K. Airport; 2 Arrests

By IAN STEWART

Woe to those of this generation that worship the beast that is presented to the world in the Koran. The false Arabic god called Allah. The god of the barbarians to whom these two barbarians dedicated their terrorist act as they tried to murder innocent families with woman and children in Glasgow. Their intent was to burn them all. I'm told nothing is more painful then serious burns. The worst job in the hospital is the one who must daily scrub the dead skin off the burn victims while they sit in the whirlpool. The healing process is long and painful. The Bible says the torment of those who are cast into hell is far worse. It never ends! There is no healing in hell. There is only eternal torment. Those who tormented others in this life will find their sins never find forgiveness. Those who spit in the face of God by rejecting the salvation He offers freely by grace through the LORD Jesus Christ will find nothing but the wrath of God abiding on them for ever and ever! The creator God of this world will not be mocked! His judgments are final, and never to be reviewed. The multiple rejections of Christ in this lifetime only increase the torments of hell. Each day of rejection kindles the fires that much higher. Oh friend, by not coming to Christ for salvation puts you in an extremely serious position. You compound your torment! Hear the words of the LORD Jesus Christ:

Mark 9:43-44

43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:

44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

KJV

 

Mohamed read the Bible before he wrote the blasphemous Koran. He quotes the Bible often in the Koran, but he rejected both the Jewish God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the Jewish Messiah revealed in the New Testament as the LORD Jesus Christ. He replaced the Bible with his false concept of an Arabic god which he called Allah. The god of Abraham, Ishmael, and Esau. The Arabic world rejected the Bible as venomously as did Mohamed. Today, these proud and haughty Islamists boldly proclaim to the world that they will replace the Bible with the Koran in the Holy Land. They will exterminate the Jews, and any who would stand with the Jews. The London bombings of yesterday, and this sad demonstration of barbarianism in Glasgow today is directly related to the Islamic take-over of the Holy Land.

Why so much hate? It is because the God of the Bible condemns them for all eternity. Allah is a lie. The Koran is nothing but blasphemy. The seed of Esau the real father of Islam as it is today is hated from the very beginning, and condemned forever in the Bible. Only the God of the Bible who knows all things from beginning to end can make such judgments. The judgment on Islam is already an eternal fact. It is no wonder Islam hates the God of the Bible. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The God who has only one begotten Son, and it is not Mohamed who's name is never even hinted as something holy.

Malachi 1:2-3

2 I have loved you, saith the Lord. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob,

3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

KJV

Romans 9:13

13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

KJV

Friend, God already knows if you will receive Christ as your Savior. The one who does not know is you yourself. The depths of the God of the Bible go far beyond the comprehensions of mere men. What I do know is the decision to come to Christ for forgiveness of sin is yours. The refusal is applied to your account 100%. The personal torments of an eternal hell is fully laid upon you. The LORD Jesus Christ paid the price for your sin at Calvary, but you must humble yourself by coming to Him for the application of His sin cleansing blood. Oh friend, don't be guilty of spiting in the face of Christ's finished work on the cross by never coming. Do not abide in the wrath of God's hate. Won't you come right now to the love Christ offers, and live.

Shin Bet foils Hamas's plans to control Temple Mount

Agents arrest 11 in year-long sting on Hamas investments, buildings  

Hamas attempts to take over control of the Temple Mount as well as spread its terror ideology and recruit new members in Jerusalem has been foiled by the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency,) senior Israeli security official announced today.

Officials told The Jerusalem Post that Hamas has invested millions of shekels in recent years in Jerusalem charities, religious institutions, and construction on the Temple Mount in an effort to recruit Israel Arab resident of Jerusalem into its ranks and strengthen bolstering its presence in the capital. One official said that Hamas also tried to infiltrate members into the Temple Mount as maintenance staff, in addition to its religious leaders who preach, give tours, and teach Koran classes there.

During a year-long operation, the Shin Bet has arrested 11 Hamas officials based in Jerusalem, 10 of whom held Israeli identity cards. In order to implement its goal of "brainwashing" local Muslims with violent Hamas ideology, the terror group had also set up a number of institutions of both religious and semi-religious nature to front illegal activities. According to officials, there are no Hamas institutions currently active in Jerusalem.

According to The Post report, the Shin Bet also cut off a major artery of Hamas's funding by arresting a senior official running a courier service that transferred funds from West Bank and abroad to the Hamas headquarters in Jerusalem. The Hamas party headquarters in Jerusalem were funded by Hamas's head offices in Syria, as well as a network of institutions in Saudi Arabia.
 

Hamas wants the Temple Mount. They know whoever controls the Temple Mount controls the future of the Holy Land. They know all hope of both Judaism and Christianity rests on the Temple Mount. The coming of the Jewish Messiah by religious Jews, or the second coming of the LORD Jesus Christ by Christians are both linked in the Bible to the Temple Mount. Hamas knows the secular politicians of the West care nothing about God, or His Holy Temple. The politicians care nothing for the Bible, or the God it represents. Islam knows the time is right for them to take this Holy site for Allah. Their goal is to replace the Bible with the Koran as the book of the Holy Land. Their goal is to replace the absolutely Holy God of the Bible with the sexually perverted god of the barbarian. The god whom the suicide bombers glorify as they murder innocent civilians in his name. The god who promises a sexually perverted paradise to the worst killers of our century. This filthy Arabic god concocted by Mohamed is openly challenging the God of the Bible to a showdown. The place is the Holy Land. The city where the actual confrontation is going to take place is Jerusalem, and the very spot will be the Temple Mount. The entire credibility of the oldest religious book which has stood the test of time is now laid on the line in this our generation. The upstart Koran seeks to replace the God of Israel with the blasphemous god of the Arabs. They intend to replace the LORD Jesus Christ with their own blasphemer Mohamed. They are telling the world that Allah is going to raise up all the dead Moslems for a final battle to dominate the world. The extermination of the Jews living in the Holy Land who are less then 1% of the world's population is the only way Allah will bring about this resurrection unto a final Islamic victory. It is at the Temple Mount where either the Koran, or the Bible will prove true.

Hamas understands all this, and are making sure that Islam will always have the upper hand over the Mount. Hamas has visions of grandeur right now thinking they will lead the disorganized hordes of Moslems to victory. The Bible says it will not be Hamas. The Last Jihad Islamic invasion of Israel will come from the North, East, and South. The Chief Prince of the North will lead the way quickly joined by the house of Togarmah.

Ezekiel 38:3

3 And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

KJV

Ezekiel 38:6

6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.

KJV

Should this prophecy out of Ezekiel take place in our generation the "Chief Prince" would be the Islamic hordes out of the old USSR. The house of Togarmah would be the Islamic hordes from Turkey. Out of the East will come Persia which is non other then Iran possibly joined by Iraq if the US pull out takes place allowing Iran free reign over all the Eastern barbarians. Closing the Southern Islamic pincher movement will be Ethiopia,  and Libya. The Islamic barbarian hordes of North Africa.

Ezekiel 38:5

5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:

KJV

 It is an unwholesome trio doomed for destruction by the God of the Bible. Read Ezekiel 39 to discover the Biblical fate of these Islamic invaders. What about you? What will your fate be when the Bible proves itself true one more time. Now that the LORD Jesus Christ has come fulfilling all the Old Testament prophecies about the coming Messiah, the Bible calls all to come to Him for salvation. Not to come is to reject Him. It is that simple. The LORD Jesus Christ being lifted up to Calvary where He willingly sacrificed Himself as the only perfect sacrifice that would be acceptable to a Holy God for sin. Do you believe? Have you come to this Christ of the Bible for the forgiveness of your sin?

 

Ex-IDF chief: Two-state solution is dead

Israel cannot obtain peace and security by supporting Palestinian moderates and giving up land for the creation of a potential Palestinian state, former IDF chief of staff Moshe Ya'alon said yesterday. "We have to replace the concept of a two-state solution - it is not relevant anymore," Ya'alon told Army Radio. "This is not pessimism, but realism. It is not practical to keep assuming it is the answer." Ya'alon said that Israel must examine its approach to the traditional peace process in light of the Hamas terror group's violent coup of the Gaza Strip last month, made possible by Israel's withdrawal from the Strip two years ago. Ya'alon exhorted the Israeli leadership to learn the lessons of Gaza and not repeat the mistakes of the past by now pulling out of the West Bank entirely.
 

I only wish the Two-State solution were dead. It is a blasphemous idea concocted by the atheistic Russians, and quickly supported by the godless Europeans. It is aimed at giving the terror minded Arab barbarians the same status as the civilized Jewish State of Israel. It is aimed at lifting the barbarians to an even higher status then the apple of God's eye. The purpose is to reduce the Bible to just another insignificant corrupted book about religion, and actually replacing it with the Koran. The Road Map more then any other factor in this our generation  brings down the Bible while lifting up the Koran. The Road Map is the darling boy of all who are against God in the world today. It is clearly a rejection of the God of the Bible, and the uplifting of the blasphemous Allah. Even more importantly - it does not work! Here is the best that sin filled politicians can come up with as a peace plan for the Holy Land. It has become a laughing stock. The unilateral withdrawal of the Jews from Gaza was the first step that was to demonstrate to the barbarous Palestinian Arabs that the civilized Jews have peaceful intent, and that the more moderate Arabs have an open door to reciprocate. What happened? The barbarous Arabs voted the worst, most violent, killers from among them to govern their new founded freedom. All the withdrawal did was empower the worst of the Arabs not the moderates. The Palestinian Arabs don't want peace with the Jews. They only want to murder them so they can gain religious stature with Allah. What foolishness to call peace a plan that empowers the Islamic Arabs to ruthlessly murder Jewish civilians.

God is teaching this generation a lesson. A lesson that is going unheeded. The Holy Land is His, and no nation, or coalition of nations has the right to determine any other future then what God has revealed in the Bible. The barbarians are not going to inherit the Holy Land God promised to the Jews. Even the great power of the USA now collated with the Russians and Europeans thanks to the Evangelical White House is not going to stop God from fulfilling His plan for the peace of the Holy Land. The plan of God in the Bible is not the blasphemous Road Map! It is the soon coming of the Prince of Peace! He is not coming as one of those opulent Islamic princes, but as the Jewish Messiah through the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Friend, the future is only for those who are born again! Those who have come to Christ for salvation. Those who were lost in sin, but came to Christ for forgiveness from their sin through His sacrificial blood. Won't you come to this Christ of the Bible. The future ruler of the planet. A rule which will establish perfect Biblical righteousness. Won't you come to Christ who has the power to cleanse, and make you fit for this coming era of perfect peace?

 

Fatah's Al-Aksa Brigades Terror Group Remains Defiant, Reckless

by Ezra HaLevi

(IsraelNN.com) Fatah’s pledge to disarm its Al Aksa Brigades terrorist group has not been fulfilled and the group’s terrorists still rule the streets of PA-controlled Judea and Samaria.

The group issued a press release Friday night demanding Fatah chief Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) fire Fatah’s Prime Minister Salem Fayad. Fayad, who is trusted by the US and controls the bank account through which Western monies are funneled to the PA, was appointed when Fatah established its own government in Judea and Samaria after being overthrown in Gaza.

He has recently called for Al-Aksa Bridages to be dismantled and warned Islamic preachers that they would be arrested if they incited against Fatah.

Al-Aksa Brigades accused Fayad of  “providing Hamas with a free service and giving it an alibi to attack the emergency government and its policies, since such statements [calling for local terror groups to be disarmed] indicate that this government is against the resistance.”

The group also quoted Fayad’s interview with CNN where he claimed that local terror gangs had “brought misery to the Palestinian people” and said: “Now the truth is clear to us. Fayad is America’s man in Palestine, he is the first Palestinian Prime Minister who carries an American citizenship.”

Al-Aksa Terrorists Use Guns At High School Finals

Dozens of armed Fatah terrorists claiming membership in the Al-Aksa Brigades group stormed high school matriculation exams in Shechem Saturday, shooting in the air. They expressed outrage that they were not being allotted a special room to take tests in, which they claimed was necessary “for security reasons” as many are wanted by Israel. School official were hesitant to grant the request due to fear of widespread cheating.

More than 500 students had to wait hours until they were permitted to continue their exams.

The Al-Aksa terrorists reportedly are seeking to obtain high-school diplomas in preparation for being hired by Fatah’s security forces, which offer a higher salary for high-school graduates.

Fatah will reportedly offer amnesty to terrorists who join the security forces, offering them a salary and the ability to keep their weapons in return for loyalty to Abbas and Fayad. The terrorists who join the forces will presumably receive American military training together with the rest of Fatah’s armed groups.
 

I doubt The Al Aksa Brigade will be forced to tote the line in Judah and Samaria. Abbas was never able nor did he ever even make an attempt to control them all the time he was in charge in Gaza. It is foolish to think he will do now in Judah and Samaria what he never did in Gaza. It is all talk for Western ears, but the Arab street knows the truth about what is never going to happen. The Islamic barbarians all want to murder Jews, and who leads the carnage is not so important to the Arab Palestinians just as long as it gets done. Hamas will most probably take control of Judah and Samaria anyway. Fatah and the Al Aksa Brigades will only survive if under the Hamas banner. The first all Arab elections in Judah and Samaria will undoubtedly go as did the elections in the Gaza. The Arab Palestinian people want only to kill Jews. Should they not be powerful enough to exterminate the Jews in one fell sweep, they will torment them forever. The Road Map is already designed to function this way. The IDF has no intent to stop the rockets raining down on the conservative Independent Fundamental Jewish Settlements, but rather the government plan is to enforce new building codes requiring concrete roofs and walls. Let the conservative settlers foot the bill is now the Olmert plan as he gets sucked deeper and deeper into the Road Map. A bomb shelter type existence for the Jewish people is how the Road Map has evolved since the first step of the unilateral withdrawal from Gaza. The demons of hell have been released in this first stage of withdrawal. I only wonder what will be released with the next step of withdrawal from Judah and Samaria surrendering this massive part of the Holy Land to Abbas, and then eventually to Hamas? Olmert is politically committed to this next step, and like a blind man heading for a precipice the willing ignorance on his part makes disaster inevitable. I am especially grieved by the willing ignorance I see from our own Evangelical White House which adopted this blasphemous Road Map, and pushed the Jews into this dangerous situation.

Friend, we live in precarious, but exciting times. None of this is a surprise to the God of the Bible. Islam is doomed in Ezekiel 39, and dispensational change is inevitable. In the midst of the billions of lives that will be caught up in these end time events, God still has great intrest in you. He sent His only begotten Son to die at Calvary as the only acceptable perfect sacrifice for sin that can be presented to the Holy God of the Bible. Jesus suffered and died so you can be saved. His blood can wash away your sin, but you must come to Him first. Yes, there is a first step in becoming a Biblical Christian, and that is coming to Christ with all your heart, Soul, and might. Friend, won't you come to this Christ for salvation? Come to His love before it is too late. The Bible warns those who refuse to come that they will face His wrath. Eternal judgment without reprieve! Oh friend, come to the all knowing Christ, and you will stand in His righteousness. All your sins will be washed away in his redeeming blood.

Revelation 5:9

9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

KJV

 

 

Gov't Votes to Free 250 Terrorists

by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) The government, in its Sunday morning weekly session, approved the release of 250 convicted Arab terrorists from prison, as a goodwill gesture to PA chief Abu Mazen.  Only terrorists without "blood on their hands" are to be released.

Some of the terrorists being freed attempted to murder Israelis but missed their targets.

Voting against the proposal were Transportation Minister Sha'ul Mofaz, the four Shas ministers (Yishai, Attias, Nahari and Yitzchak Cohen), and Tourism Minister Yitzchak Aharonovitch of Yisrael Beiteinu.  Yisrael Beiteinu leader Strategic Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman was not present, but voted in writing against the deal.

Shas ministers stated that if Arab terrorists are freed, Jews in prison for security-related crimes should also be released.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert admitted at the cabinet session that releasing the 250 terrorists will not convince Hamas and Hizbullah terrorists to free their IDF hostages. He explained that the move was a “good will” gesture to support Palestinian Authority Chairman and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas’s new government.

“I have come to the conclusion that releasing the prisoners will not affect the chances of bringing Gilad Shalit, Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser home,” said Olmert. The families of all three captives are in France to attend a rally calling for the freedom of their loved ones, who were kidnapped in the south and north by terrorists last summer.  The families will meet with French President Nicolas Sarkozy and French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner on Monday.

Minister Mofaz said the decision was pointless, in that "releasing 250 small-fry would not help Abu Mazen at all."  He predicted that in any event, Hamas and Fatah would re-unite within several months.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert promised Abu Mazen (Mahmoud Abbas) at their summit in Sharm el-Sheikh two weeks ago that he would release the terrorists.  The Cabinet did not discuss the specific terrorists who are to be freed. 

The General Security Service (Shabak) provided Olmert with a list of terrorists that could be released, but Olmert returned the list.  He said it contained mostly terrorists who are to be freed within a short time in any event, and that releasing such terrorists would not help Abu Mazen.

Public Security Minister Avi Dichter agreed, saying that the release of terrorists whose jail terms end within 2-3 years would actually hurt the PA chief. Dichter also noted that “none of the gestures we made since 1994 (releasing terrorists in exchange for Israeli hostages, dead or alive) ever resulted in any PA action against terror.”

"My promise was given after a careful investigation and consultations," Olmert said. "I have no illusions that this very gesture will change the situation in the Middle East. However, we hope to be able to use every means that can strengthen and encourage the moderate elements in the Palestinian Authority, so that we can go in the direction of creating conditions of real dialogue."

This "strengthening the moderates" strategy has governed much of Israeli policy since the signing of the Oslo Accords with Yasser Arafat in 1993.  Ever since then, the Fatah terrorist organization has received guns and money that were used to murder hundreds of Israelis, has refused to change its charter calling for Israel's destruction, and has lost control of Gaza to Hamas.

Fatah Charter Article 15 states: "The liberation of Palestine, from an Arab viewpoint, is a national duty and it attempts to repel the Zionist and imperialist aggression against the Arab homeland, and aims at the liquidation of the Zionist presence in Palestine. Absolute responsibility for this falls upon the Arab nation - peoples and governments - with the Arab people of Palestine in the vanguard."

MK Effie Eitam (National Union) called upon Shas and Yisrael Beiteinu to quit the coalition following today's decision.  His party colleague MK Aryeh Eldad said that the release of the 250 terrorists "to the scarecrow Abu Mazen is political and ethical bankruptcy on the part of the Prime Minister."

More good will gestures by Olmert. Many of these barbarians now freed tried, but failed to murder Jews. They now have a second opportunity to conduct their dirty deeds. Face saving is what Islam is all about, and those who failed by getting caught must now save face by being successful. They will never be able to face family, or community until they have removed this terrible stain on their Islamic virtue. Allah is not pleased with losers. Here is the really prosperity minded god to whom the Christian prosperity crowd should go. Those giving away supposed magic handkerchiefs claiming they are inspired by the Apostle Paul should know when they claim they have the magic to heal finances that the inspiration really is coming from the same god who breaths only success for the Moslems, and will not tolerate failure. Men like Job, and even King David would have been rejected by Allah. I know neither are bothered by the fact that Islam of today rejects them when in their failed state. It is when we fail that the God of the Bible is at His strongest administering grace and mercy. This God of the Bible is just too great for the worm to stain His glory. Allah on the other hand loses his honor when his followers fail to keep him in power. The honor of Allah must be regained. Those who allow his honor to be soiled through failure are held accountable. The Holy Land is considered by Islam to be their possession. When the world for a brief moment after the holocaust had pity on the Jews, it gave them back a small portion of their own Promised Land. Islam went immediately into face saving mode sending 7 Arab armies to destroy the new formed tiny State of Israel. They failed, and the various Arab leaders of the day paid the price to Allah. The Islamic world does not hold them up in any  esteem. Saddam who was basically hung by the Americans will not be lifted  high by the Islamic world. He failed! It is no wonder Mohamed never understood the Bible. He had no concept of what the Apostle Paul wrote when he said:

2 Corinthians 12:10

10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

KJV

 

Islam has no concept of the meek and humble other then to exploit them as suicide bombers whenever possible. This is how they fill their ranks with children. They prefer hate filled fanatics, but will take the exploited just as quickly. Today it is the most violent who rise to the top of Islam. The greatest haters of the Jews and the Christians are the top dogs when Islam is left to itself.

Folks, the victory of Christ is the victory of the meek. Only the humbled sinner comes to Christ for salvation. The masses like Islam are too proud to come. They would lose face if they submitted to such a puritanical Savior as presented in the Bible.

Friend, I pray your heart is not so hard that you can no longer respond to the great love Christ has manifested for you in the Bible. He knows you can't save yourself. Your works, no matter how sacrificial, fall far short of perfection. You don't even come close dear friend. You and I both need an advocate to stand before the absolutely perfect Holy God of the Bible, and plead our case. Not that we are deserving, but that His blood atoned for our sin when He died at Calvary. Friend, the Bible says there is such an advocate, but you must come to Him before He can be your spokesman. Won't you come to this Christ of the Bible?

1 John 2:1

2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

Reports: 'Abbas creating military dictatorship'

Fatah breaking law, cutting off civil liberties with 'emergency government'  

Palestinian Authority Chairman and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas has come under heavy criticism from Palestinians - including drafters of the PA Basic Law - who say he is forging a "military dictatorship" in the West Bank by granting military courts broad powers to crack down on civilians.

According to The Jerusalem Post, Abbas is also under attack for seeking to weaken Palestinian Legislative Council, whose members were elected in January 2006. The PA Chairman has recently issued a series of decrees suspending parts of the PA Basic Law and granting himself, military and security commanders and judges far-reaching powers.

Abbas's recent actions have been translated by some as an attempt to enhance his power and to foil any attempt by the rival Hamas faction to undermine his Fatah group in the West Bank. According to his critics though, Abbas is violating PA law by establishing a separate "emergency government" from Hamas.

Meanwhile, several critics of Abbas's rule – including legal scholars and public figures - have been abducted by 'unidentified gunmen' in the West Bank, likely as a warning to others contemplating voicing their skepticism of Fatah. The abductions are yet another indication of the lawlessness in the West Bank, which now sits entirely under the control of armed forces loyal to Abbas.

The Post reports that Fatah security forces have detained more than 100 Hamas supporters in Nablus over the past three weeks. All of the prisoners are being held without trial or questioning and are banned from meeting with their lawyers.

Unconfirmed reports that the Hamas detainees are being tortured sparked a wave of protests earlier this week. Citing "security concerns," PA policemen banned reporters and photographers from covering a demonstration yesterday outside a PA prison. The Post reports that a university student suspected of using his mobile phone to take a picture of the event was beaten by officers and taken into custody.

In related news, Palestinian journalists have complained that the PA has banned the Hamas-affiliated Falasteen newspaper from being distributed in the West Bank. The paper is based in Gaza City.


 

Well, here is the savior of the Road Map. The man upon whom the Olmert and Bush governments are hanging their hats. Remember all those Banana Republics that we inappropriately supported in the past? Here comes another, but this time it is the Holy Land. This time it is the Promised Land that the God of the Bible has appropriated exclusively for the Jews. This time it is at the time God has chosen for which to conduct dispensational change. The LORD Jesus Christ is coming again, and the entire Western world is fixed on establishing the worst culture in existence to be His greeters. There are no people in the world who hate the LORD Jesus Christ (the Jewish/Christian King) more then the barbaric Islamic Arab Palestinians. This lawless rabble will be our welcoming greeting to our LORD and Savior when He comes again if the Bush/Olmert Road Map is to be kept alive. We already know what Abbas does with the scholars and public figures who question his authority. I don't need to imagine what he will do to Christ whom the Bible says is going to return to Judah, Jerusalem, and Mount Zion! Our own Evangelical White House is out in the forefront demanding Abbas be established as the dictator of Judah and Samaria (the West Bank).

Psalms 48:11-14

11 Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.

12 Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.

13 Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.

14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

KJV

The Bible says both Judah and Mount Zion belong to God forever and ever. God is calling in His right to this sacred turf with the miraculous Third Exodus of our generation. The Jews are back, and this generation is in a rage. We are making the place where the Bible says Jesus is coming again into the most unwelcome place on the planet. The Holocaust denying Jew hating Abbas will be first in line to greet the coming King of the Jews. He will be expecting the, turn the other cheek, Christ whom Abbas would eat up as he does both Bush and Olmert. However, the Christ he will meet is the coming  Jewish King LORD of hosts, the omnipotent God, the LORD mighty in battle, the absolutely perfect God of the Bible who can never lose, and is coming with great judgment to Judah and Mount Zion!

Psalms 24:7-10

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

KJV

I warn these Palestinian barbarians as I warn you dear friend. Balaam learned the lesson that Bush and Olmert have yet to discover. The world has not yet seen the wrath of the Lamb. A very real part of the full character of the LORD Jesus Christ is coming to the Holy Land, Judah, Jerusalem, and Mount Zion. I pray you have made peace with Christ before He returns. At the soon coming day of the LORD it will be too late.

Isaiah 2:12

12 For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:

KJV

Oh friend, come to this Christ of the Bible for the forgiveness of your sin before it is too late. He promises redemption to all who come to Him with all their heart, all their soul, and all their might. It is complete surrender withholding nothing, and nothing less is acceptable to the Holy God of the Bible. Friend, are you saved? Has your heart been changed?

 

Joshua 22:4-5

4 And now the Lord your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you on the other side Jordan.

5 But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

Islamic Jihad Takes Credit for Failed Attack
 

(IsraelNN.com) Islamic Jihad took credit on Thursday night for a failed terrorist attack near Tul Karem that left one terrorist dead.  The terrorist was identified as 23-year-old Mohammed Ziad.

 

Spokesmen for the group explained that Ziad was supposed to shoot soldiers at a nearby checkpoint as revenge for the killing of two Islamic Jihad terrorists near Jenin earlier in the week.  Instead, soldiers fired back and Ziad was killed instantly.  No soldiers were wounded in the attack.

Islamic Jihad is under the direct orders of Abbas the Islamic dictator our Evangelical White House wants to make the king of Judah. The ruin of Jerusalem, and the bringing down of Judah by this generation of politicians is finding judgment coming from the God of the Bible. The victorious Jews and Americans are now suddenly finding themselves losers when they face Islam. The turn of events is astounding. Israel entered the Second Lebanon War undefeated in every battle with the barbarians. America flowed into Baghdad with an unprecedented one-sided victory over the best Islamic army Allah had at his disposal. Oh how the tide has changed. It is the ruin of Jerusalem, and the bringing down of Judah that has brought about this calamity. It is the Road Map! It is the blasphemous plan to take Judah away from the Jews, and give it to the Islamic barbarians for a forever State. 

God placed Judah into Jewish possession in 1967 when the IDF faced the Jordanian Army during the battle for Jerusalem. The Jordanian Jerusalem  fortress fell under a costly Jewish assault. All the Islamic Jordanian soldiers  then retreated across the Jordan River never to return to Judah again. Today, it is not the Jordanians, but the interloping Islamic Palestinian Arabs who are desiring to make Judah their kingdom. They clearly have more freedom under Israeli rule then they ever had under Jordanian rule, but they hate the Jews anyway even more then they did the Jordanians. The Hashemite Kings of Jordan put down many rebellious attempted bloody overthrows of their rule in Jordan. There is no love lost between the Palestinian Arabs and the Jordanians. The Jordanians do not want Judah back. They are happy to watch the Jews take on the headache that is no longer theirs. They are glad the Jews must now try to get along with these barbarians who are never satisfied. \

This is a sad generation that thinks they can overrule what God has done. God gave Judah and Samaria to the Jews not the barbarians in 1967. The politicians of our day would have the world believe God is really dumb by giving the Promised Land back to the Jews at this time. The politicians want the world to believe they are smarter then the God of the Bible. That they know how to bring about peace in the Holy Land without any consideration for what God has said in the Bible. This is really what is behind the Road Map. When the Islamic Arabs of Gaza voted in Hamas it ended the Road Map because Hamas is so vicious the world has said none are to negotiate with them. The Road Map intended to give the Palestinian Authority formed by Arafat, and now run by Abbas the kingdom of Judah. That was no longer possible after the Palestinian Authority was run out of Gaza by Hamas. To whom can we give the kingdom of Judah is now the driving question of those who continue to resist God by keeping the Road Map alive. Give it to Abbas who has fled to Judah and Samaria is the answer. The same fellow who orders suicide attacks aimed only at the murder of young Jewish soldiers. There is no military objective. It is just barbaric killing that Abbas orders. Folks, here is the next King of Judah if our Evangelical White House, and the liberal Olmert government have their way. We are guilty of standing around with our hands in our pockets while the God of the Bible is setting the stage for the return of His only begotten Son. While our politicians place stubbing stones aimed at humiliating the Bible, and lifting up the Koran. It is the ruin of Jerusalem, and the bringing down of Judah that is making this generation an abomination to the God of the Bible! It is for the attack on His glory that this generation must account.

Abbas consolidates West Bank leadership

The Associated Press

Published: July 13th, 2007 09:03 AM

Moderate Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will consolidate his rule in the West Bank on Friday night by installing a caretaker government that is expected to rule indefinitely, Palestinian officials said.

The caretaker government will replace an emergency Cabinet formed after Hamas seized control of the Gaza Strip in mid-June and Abbas dissolved his unity government with the Islamic militant group.

Abbas, suddenly in control only of the West Bank, also declared a state of emergency that ends Friday night.

Nabil Amr, a top aide to Abbas, said the new caretaker government will be headed by Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, who heads the emergency Cabinet, and be made up of the same ministers, with several new additions.

Abbas has been ruling by decree since declaring the state of emergency. He ordered a new term of parliament to start this week to approve the emergency government as required by law, but Hamas boycotted the session.

Azzam al-Ahmed, a lawmaker from Abbas' Fatah movement, said that because neither side can muster a majority in parliament: "This government will continue running the country until the crisis ... is solved."

Dozens of Hamas lawmakers have been arrested by Israel in the past year, giving Fatah a slight majority in the 132-seat parliament even though Hamas won Palestinian elections in 2006. Both sides have charged the other with undermining the Palestinians' nascent democracy.

Here is Islamic democracy at it's very best. It will never get any better! It is based on Islamic law not Western law. The god whom they trust is Allah, not the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The only reason democracy worked so well in America was because we submitted to the right God. The reason why democracy will never work in Islamic countries is because they have rejected the God of the Bible for the usurper false Arabic god Allah. Will we ever learn?

Today, Abbas has bypassed everything that democracy stands for, and established his own cronies by decree most probably forever. Where is the outrage? That liberal Jewish politician Olmert shakes the hand of Abbas. We send Mrs. Rice with millions of dollars, and military arms enough to sink a battleship so "democracy" will continue to flourish in the Holy Land. Folks, we are suckers! All we are doing is incurring the wrath of God. Now don't get me wrong. I'm a conservative through and through, but we have been hoodwinked into believing the Road Map is a good thing. It is a blasphemous plan that would make the Islamic military dictator Abbas the next King of Judah. Islamic democracy is what put Hamas in charge of the Gaza right now. Hamas is far more powerful then Abbas, and will overthrow his rule in Judah at the first democratically held election just as they kicked him out of the Gaza.

The God of the Bible has no intension to set up Abbas as the next King of Judah. Folks, the next King of Judah will be the coming again Jewish King of glory. He is coming in judgment. He is coming to set up a Kingdom of righteousness. The Bible is clear that when He comes He will have the power to force all of mankind to submit to His puritanical rule. Submit, or perish will be the results when He wields the rod of iron. The rod of perfect holiness. No other gods will be permitted when His Kingdom is established. All the manmade religions of the world whether based on the Bible or not will be outlawed. All the religious potentates will be brought low, or perish. Only the Christ of Calvary will be honored!

Friend, the Christ who is coming again will not be put on the cross a second time by rebellious men. This time all will submit, or perish. The nations are but dust in His hands. There is no power that can stop Him from taking the throne of Judah to Himself. What about you? Are you born again? Have you come to this all powerful Christ for the forgiveness of your sin? The same power that will crumble the nations is available for your forgiveness if you are willing. Won't you come to this Biblical Christ, and live?

Deuteronomy 4:29

29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

Israel mulling offer of amnesty to 178 wanted Fatah militants

By Haaretz Service and Reuters

Leaders of Fatah's military wing said Saturday that they have reached an agreement with Israel that will pardon 178 of their members on condition they cease terror activities, the Palestinian Ma'an news agency reported.

The list of Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade militants in the said deal include senior group figures such as Zakaria Zubeidi, the head of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, and the Ramallah head of the group, Kemal Renam.

According to the news agency, the deal will also contain the provision that the militants put down their arms, and recognize and remain with Palestinian security forces in the West Bank under Abbas' leadership.
 

Militants that will cooperate with the PA security forces and won't be involved with terror activities for three months will be allowed to leave the territory under full Palestinian control, known as Area A, and be able to travel abroad.

Abbas aide Saeb Erekat said talks were still underway on the security arrangements, part of which would "end the hunt for these people which the Israelis deem as wanted."

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's office had no immediate comment on the talks, but a government official familiar with the deliberations said: "This is something we're considering."

The government official said Olmert planned to meet with Abbas on Monday.
Erekat said the leaders would meet in the coming days but he did not provide a specific date.

Last week, the cabinet approved the release of 250 Palestinian prisoners as a gesture to Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas. It was agreed that the prisoners will all be members of Fatah, residents of the West Bank, and they will have no "blood on their hands" - the euphemism used to describe Palestinians imprisoned for participating in the killing of Israelis.
 

Abbas would have the world believe that the leopard can change his spots. We all know this is a lie, but it is lies that the world wants to hear. The liberal Olmert government is especially ready to believe the lie. These wanted men have all been trained from the cradle to kill Jews. Their consciences have been seared from little up to make no distinctions between soldiers and little civilian children. They will murder any who are guilty of being Jewish. They will murder any who resist their barbaric ways Jew or Arab. The proposal that they will make good policeman for the proposed coming Islamic Kingdom of Judah and Samaria is ludicrous. They are thugs who will always be thugs. They will never repent of their ways. It is sad that Olmert is considering painting a false face on these gangsters for the sake of the Road Map. We are all expected to deny reality so the Road Map can proceed. Folks, the Bible tells the truth when it asks the rhetorical question can these barbarians also do good who are accustomed to doing evil? The only answer is no! They are incapable of ever doing good. They will continue to murder Jews at every opportunity. Olmert depends on the blindness of his constituency in order to sing this new song to the nation of Israel. He knows our Evangelical White House will give him kudos for making this decision that helps promote the Islamic Kingdom of Judah under the rule of Abbas and his personal thugs.

Friend, can you do good who are accustomed to only doing evil? The Bible says you were born in sin! You inherited the sin of Adam because as a representative of the human race he was the best. You would have fallen into sin much quicker then he had you been the one in the garden of Eden. This is why we need a Savior. This is why we need to be born again. Only miraculous power can change the leopards spots, or wash clean a heart of sin. The LORD Jesus Christ proved He had that power. It is your decision as to whether He applies the sin cleansing blood He shed at Calvary upon your heart. The perfect man/God Jesus sacrificed Himself as the only acceptable atonement for sin that an absolutely Holy God could accept as a substitute for those accustomed only to sin. You must come to Him for the forgiveness of your sin. It is a very personal thing. No one but you can come on your behalf, and no one but Christ can forgive. Won't you come to this Christ of the Bible, and live?
