Is there an estimate of how many people are expected to attend? Who will speak?

They certainly have my full support and sympathy. I hope, though, that their protest is tied in to opposing the use of $10 billion or more of US taxpayers' money to finance the amputation of Judea and Samaria from the State of Israel. Otherwise, they'll just look like disgruntled rabble-rousers, in my opinion, and it will be easy to discredit them.

If you want to see the absolute insanity of the Israeli Government just look at this.

Insanity is doing the same thing again and again. Israel is beyond insane for they do the same thing again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and...............

Giving the Arabs another chance and another chance and another chance........

At best you can say, this time they acted before any Israelis were murdered.


Terror warning closes Karni crossing

Just one day after Israel fully reopened the main Israel-Gaza cargo crossing for the first time in several months, it was closed again due to a terror warning.

An intelligence alert indicated Palestinians intended to carry out an attack at the Karni crossing.

Wednesday's opening of the crossing had been decided upon by Defense Minister Amir Peretz.

Karni has been open recently for the transfer of goods from Israel into Gaza. As of Wednesday afternoon, goods could be transferred from the Gaza Strip into Israel.

Karni has been periodically closed for extended periods of time due to warnings of planned terror attacks at the crossing. A planned attack on the crossing was thwarted some three weeks ago by the Palestinian Authority security services.

Yes that's the key issue, US taxpayer money being used for the next removal of God's Chosen Jewish people from the Jewish Covenantal Land - At the very least all Christians MUST make their voices heard in this regards, in some way.

If the checks gets written - well - eventually HIS hand will come upon the enemies of Israel, how patient will He be with us?

Have they given away Jerusalem in the last 40 years - this seems a new twist on the road to world peace. Not just chances, not just salaries of terrorists, not just violent expulsions of the Chosen Apple of God's Eye but Jerusalem.

??Seriously, how long has that been on the bartering table, not just desired but a serious consideration by both sides?

I finally decide to stop worrying about Israel (while still supporting her). God has already spoken, and what will be, will be. Wouldn't it be awesome for it to begin during our lifetimes!

I fear for the nations who come up against Israel, steal her land, tell her lies, think God has removed His blessing, broken His everlasting covenant with them and handed over the land to the them, I fear for them as the delusion grows and I pray that when some who may still have eyes to see - when they see Christians standing up against these disengagements, convergences etc they will see that perhaps what they have been lead to believe the Bible says in this regards was wrong. That it may cause them to open up His Word and see the truth instead of the lies they have heard in their apostate Christian Churches that are intent on stealing what does not belong to them.
