Yes, things are insane. I read about a police officer who was disciplined for having an American flag in the background of a photo (I guess on social media?). Since when is can American citizens be punished for displaying the nation’s flag?
Since Old Glory became a "Trump code".
Telling, isn't it.
American flag = President Trump = God Bless America
That's the last thing the enemy wants.
How appropriate that our President was born on Flag Day. You can't make this stuff up. God *always* gets there first to leave some sticky prints.
He really laid it on thick because if you look at the repeating annual Torah readings, that day's portion -- the day President Trump was born -- opened with the unusual section (Num 10:35-36) that is separated by the inverted nuns.
Num 1035. And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, Lord, and let your enemies be scattered; and let them who hate you flee before you:
36. And when it rested, he said, Return, O Lord, to the many thousands of Israel:
On the wiki page about the inverted nuns are classic commentaries about what was deal about those verses, because they sure seemed out of place. Here is a small excerpt, which directs over to the "appropriate place":
Where is it its appropriate place? Rav Ashi says: "In the section dealing with the disposition of the Israelites according to their banners and their travelling arrangements" (Numbers 1:52-2:34, Shabbath 116a).
Num 1:52-2:34 is about the placement of the camps and their banners (flags).
Speaking of which:
Who here doesn't remember the big story marking the opening of the US Embassy in Jerusalem? May 14, 2018. Flags flags and more flags. Embassies and their flags.
Flags lining the streets.
Huge posters on buildings started to appear in Dec 2017 when the announcement was made to move the embassy. "God Bless Trump, from JerUSAlem DC (David's Capital) to Washington DC"
On the opening day, May 14, 2018, that "appropriate place" [with the flags] begins near the end of the reading. (In the translation on that page, v. 52 says "his division", but it is literally "his flag")
It's like what Haman's wise men and Zeresh his wife told Haman:
"If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him."
God always has a little spring in His step while trumping His enemies.
