A Prayer for 5776

As we approach Rosh Hashana, the people of Israel need to recognize how lucky we are.

True, today, we find ourselves largely alone, set apart from our traditional partners in the Western world. But standing alone isn’t always the worst option. Today it is certainly not the worst option.

Over the past several years, we have witnessed the growing radicalization and fragmentation of the societies of neighboring lands. Sunnis fight Shi’ites and one another. Minority populations are slaughtered, enslaved and oppressed. Regimes fall, rise and fall again. Today, every Arab society is either in danger or at war. And in almost every case, it isn’t good fighting evil but varying degrees of evil and barbarism fighting one another.

From the PLO to Islamic State, through Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Assad regime in Syria, the ayatollahs of Iran, Hezbollah, the Erdogan regime in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and every single actor in the region resorts to some degree of torture and oppression.

And all do so while quoting the Koran.

Israel has responded rationally to the carnage at our doorstep.

We help where we can. For instance, we are assisting the Egyptian regime in...

The fools of the leading nations, who think they are the most brilliant of people, are leading us to the brink of war, and even Armageddon. They are clueless tools of Satan. The fact that we, America, are leading this is doubly troubling. Wake up, America! Judgment is rapidly on the way. We have been under God's judgment for a couple decades or more, but if we think we can sacrifice Israel to save ourselves, we are going to pay a price no one could ever imagine. This president has publicly mocked God, Christians and righteousness (righteous living). He is no friend of Israel and any show of friendship is just a ruse to quell the unrest here at home, but God is not mocked and He knows this man's real heart. We must pray that godly men will still have influence in our country and in the highest ranks in our government, military, and even our schools. This is a fight we have to reengage in.

Is it time yet to pray that God will take this traitorous bastard servant of hell from among ther living and send him to his father, the father of lies?

Interesting date 5776. 1776 was a big year for this country, the Spirit of 76. Many say this country will be punched this year. I think we will be in a new start.

I agree. But dealing with America is like talking to a wall.

Amen. Judgment could be delayed but it is inevitable.
