I am neither Jewish nor European but I can sense the tension. It is the craziest thing. Makes no sense at all.

Yes, it does. Paris... City of Light. Not for much longer.

When a culture or nation chooses to become enveloped in darkness, it attacks the light. Light is a witness to truth, freedom and the reality of the Creator who orders nature and history. Thus the Jews become enemy number one. It matters not how liberal or how secular or even how religious they are. They exist. No greater witness to who is the ultimate authority in the heavenlies and on earth.

These recent attacks tell us that the work of the Jewish people is about done there. God is removing their light from the nations and taking it back to the Land of Israel.

It also is a clear message to the "Shining City on the Hill". The pattern is unmistakeable. The writing is on the wall. Even says so right there in that very passage:

Daniel 5

17. Then Daniel answered and said to the king, Let your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another; yet I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him its meaning:

18. O you king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar, your father, a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty:

19. And because of the majesty that he gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him; whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up; and whom he would he put down:

20. But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and his glory was taken from him:

21. And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; they fed him with grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; until he learned that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appoints over it whom he will:

22. And you his son, O Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this:

23. But have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven; and the utensils of his house have been brought before you, and you, and your lords, your wives, and your concubines, have drunk wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver, and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand your breath is, and whose are all your ways, have you not glorified:

24. Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written:

25. And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PARSIN:

26. This is the meaning of the matter; MENE; God has numbered your kingdom, and brought it to an end:

27. TEKEL; You are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting:

28. PERES; Your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians:

Daniel didn't need to go home and pray for an interpretation, as he had *already* seen the writing on the wall. Belshazzar, OTOH...

About that City on the Hill, the "New Jerusalem",

Mark 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

Daniel was only a prophet to the Gentile world ruler(s).

and this writing was written And this is the writing that was written

Let him that readeth understand.

Americans are already seeing doctors flee [their practices] due to Obamacare (Pharaohcare for Hebrew slaves). How many are Jews, now with a great incentive to make aliyah? How many Jews will follow, also "heading for the hills", before the remnant of the American People finally get a clue?

Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
