This news does have a "hold your breath" feel to it, doesn't it? Israel will not play around the way we seem to be doing in Iraq--their (Israel's) survival is always formost in their thinking (though Sharon seemed to be willing to give the store away for a while).
The Bible exhorts us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and so I shall...but the enemy, bolstered in its belief in a false god and in sensing American "weakness" by our unwillingness to do what is necessary in Iraq, seems possessed of a haughty spirit and bent on bringing down upon itself God's wrath.
I've had a prayer placed at the Western Wall, and will be petitioning the Almighty on Jerusalem's behalf all night.
