Hoyer Again to Lead House Democrats to Israel
The Jewish Press - Published: August 4th, 2013

"Rep. Steny Hoyer, the second-ranked Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives, again will lead fellow Democrats on a tour of Israel funded by AIPAC’s educational affiliate."

edit

"The Democrats’ tour, which lasts about a week, usually is followed by a similar tour for Republican freshmen. In past years the GOP visit has been led by Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), the House majority leader and the highest-ranking Jewish member of Congress."

Did anyone ask him if he was on the phone for 2 hours with Obambi starting at 1:30 in the morning (his time), while our embassy was being attacked in Benghazi?

Increased? Does he know something I don’t?

Perhaps the Bible;

Isaiah 21:2

King James Version

A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.

Elam is translated as ...

Iran

Isaiah warns of Iran besieging Jerusalem.

And as I've recently come to understand ... Isreal of 1948 is not a religious state, but a secular one.
THAT explains Netenyahu's plea for help ... he's a warrior ... but he's not a David.

I don’t believe Israel or the United States are religious states. I do believe they have religious underpinnings. As those are ignored though, we come into dangerous times.

That is what we are seeing here.

Look at the areas that have strayed the most in the United States. I can’t help but thing we are living in end times, because knowing better, we do so much that is plain suicidal.

We are lucky God is a merciful being.

Dear Prime Minister Netanyahu:

I apologize for your having to deal with our Representative Hoyer. For a long time now, we here in America have been trying to put him in a home, but he refuses to go.

Good luck with your discussions.

From America, with love,
