Obama Administration Set for One Last Strike at Israel-Paris peace conference, Turtle Bay aftermath
Frontpagemagazine ^ | 1-4-17 | P. David Hornik

Posted on 01/04/2017 4:48:00 AM PST by SJackson

A week and a half ago President Obama gave the order for the U.S. to abstain on UN Security Council Resolution 2334, thereby—effectively—voting in favor and allowing the resolution to pass.

As I noted, the resolution goes beyond “moral equivalency” by obfuscating Palestinian terror and incitement while branding Jewish life beyond the 1949 Armistice Lines a “flagrant violation under international law” and a “major obstacle…to peace.”

But the administration wasn’t through with Israel. A few days later, with the Middle East aflame from Yemen to Iraq to Syria to Libya to Sudan and Iranian expansionism on the march, Secretary of State Kerry delivered a 75-minute harangue against what he called Israel’s “pernicious policy of settlement construction that is making peace impossible.”

Critics have noted that—in the real world—Israeli construction in settlements under the recent Netanyahu governments has been so modest that it has not affected the Israeli-Palestinian population balance in the West Bank; and that if any and all Israeli presence beyond the 1949 Armistice Lines is “illegal,” then the idea of a “peace process” to settle claims over disputed land appears to be invalidated, since Israel is then nothing but a rapacious thief and the Palestinians its victims seeking redress.

As international-law scholar Eugene Kontorovich notes in the Washington Post

The…condemnation of any Jewish presence whatsoever in eastern Jerusalem and the West Bank is a unique rule invented for Israel. There has never been a prolonged belligerent occupation—from the U.S. occupation of West Berlin to Turkey’s ongoing occupation of Cyprus to Russia’s of Crimea—where the occupying power has blocked its citizens from living in the territory under its control. Moreover, neither the United Nations nor any other international body has ever suggested they must do so. What is being demanded of Israel in its historical homeland has never been demanded of any other state, and never will be. 

The Obama administration’s stepped-up diplomatic and verbal assault on Israel in the last weeks of its tenure has not gone unnoticed, sparking bitter criticism even from Democratic lawmakers and mainstream American Jewish organizations that are far from any right-wing agenda.

But the extent to which the administration listens to such protests, or can be budged from its wholesale endorsement of Palestinian claims regarding the West Bank and Jerusalem, can be gauged from the fact that the Obama-Kerry team has still more in store for Israel.

It’s set to take place in Paris on January 15, under the aegis of the Hollande government, and it’s expected that some 70 countries will be attending. 

The ostensible subject: “Middle East peace.” The translation: more invalidation of any and all Israeli claims to land captured from Jordan (not the Palestinians) in a defensive war in 1967, and more support for what—under present circumstances—would almost certainly be a Palestinian terror state in that territory. 

American Jewish leaders have demanded that France call off this “ill-conceived, poorly timed and damaging” event, also pointing to “the impending transition to a new US administration, just five days later.”

But according to The Times of Israel, that—the Obama administration’s exploitation of its last days in office to do more harm to Israel—is exactly what Prime Minister Netanyahu is concerned about.

The Times of Israel cites an Israeli news broadcast saying Netanyahu believes the Middle East Quartet—which includes the U.S., UN, Russia, and the EU—“will coordinate positions at the Paris summit, and then return to the Security Council in the very last days of Obama’s presidency to cement these new parameters on Mideast peacemaking.”

“Cement these new parameters” would, of course, mean another Security Council resolution that is ruinous to Israel’s stance in favor of a negotiated settlement, tars it as a rogue state and international outlaw, and gives another major boost to the ongoing international effort to delegitimize and ultimately dismantle the Jewish state. 

The Obama administration that came into office calling for “daylight” between the U.S. and Israel and slamming “natural growth” in Israeli communities, will be leaving office having learned nothing about the real sources of Middle Eastern violence and instability, Palestinian intransigence and outright rejection of Israel in any contours, and Israel’s unique nature in its region as a stable, faithfully pro-U.S. democracy seeking a genuine peace that would not merely imperil it.

Instead the administration appears bent on compounding ignorance and incorrigibility by cementing a lasting legacy of shame.

17 Tevet, 5777

On the 15th day of the 1st month, five days ahead of the Inauguration of Restoration, here is the writing that is written:

Parshat Shemot, 1st Portion (Exodus 1:1-1:17)

5.Now all those descended from Jacob were seventy souls, and Joseph, [who] was in Egypt.
6.Now Joseph died, as well as all his brothers and all that generation.
7.The children of Israel were fruitful and swarmed and increased and became very very strong, and the land became filled with them.
8.A new king arose over Egypt, who did not know about Joseph.
9.He said to his people, "Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more numerous and stronger than we are.
10.Get ready, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they increase, and a war befall us, and they join our enemies and depart from the land."

...lest they join our enemies (the American People) and depart from the two-state solution.

On the 15th day of the 1st month, five days ahead of the Inauguration of Desolation, the rectification was proclaimed before the problem, the cure before the Obama disease, with the passengers (H5674 עברים , cf. "Hebrews" עברים) lifted up on the eagle's wings - the 'dry ground' in the midst of the sea. Diaspora central; Trump central. Miracle on the Hudson:

Numbers 33:3 And they departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the morrow after the passover the children of Israel went out with an high hand in the sight of all the Egyptians.

Chumash Torah reading for January 15, 2009 begins with:

Ex 3.16. Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, I have surely visited you (pakad pakadti), and seen that which is done to you in Egypt: 17. And I have said, I will bring you out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey:

SULLY

1. to soil, stain, or tarnish.
2. to mar the purity or luster of; defile:

Synonyms
1. taint, blemish, contaminate. 2. dirty, disgrace, dishonor.

Antonyms
clean, cleanse, esteem, honor, purify

Divine rectification: eight years from the Inauguration of Desolation to the Inaugration of Restoration (MAGA).

Like it never even happened.

Dan 6.1 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about sixty two years old.

Donald Trump, who is 70, yet 'not 70' because 70 - 8 = 62

Belshazzar = Obama. Here is the writing that was written: Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin, because 'he should have known', like Pharaoh should have known Joseph. That there was none so discreet and wise...

Dan 9
1. In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans:
2. In the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, perceived in the books the number of years, which, according to the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet, must pass before the end of the desolations of Jerusalem; seventy years:

How to blot out the remembrance of Amalek.. God makes it like it never even happened. "You shall not forget."

"Gog came" or "Gog comes" (גוג בא)... The peace process presidents (nasi rosh) George William George + Barack Obama.

Gog u'Magog = 70 [nations]

Ezekiel >>> Gog u'Magog = 70 [nations]

Amazing!

Zechariah 12:3 And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it.

As y'all probably know, but for benefit of those who don't, there are 70 original nations, all originating from the three sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth, as laid out in Genesis 10.

Just remember, it is not Obama, Putin, Erdogan, the Palestinians, or any politicians who will bring these nations against Israel:

“And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.” Eze 38:16

God will bring them to show His might to the world, when He crushes them, hallelujah!

The first names of the 'peace process' presidents not only spell out "Gog" with the first letters, but also spell out "Gog uMagog" in letter order within the order of the presidents' names and terms. גורג ויליאם גורג

(Sorry I couldn't color-code that; too complicated with the mixed language codes)

That, followed up by B.O. (בא) which is the masc. sing. verb either for the past or present tense "to come, arrive".

Furthermore, meshech is the modern word for "term" as in a presidential term (a duration, from the idea of drawing out). Tubal = "you will be brought/led/guided" (2nd pers masc. sing. fut. H2986, yabal), same spelling as tebel, world.

The stuff that just sits around..

It’s all orchestrated. The paradigm shift occurring with the ‘impossible’ election of Donald Trump is only the beginning. It is a necessary adjustment period.

There’s also the spiritual shift (which you know so well) Jan 20 - when a man who has no power becomes president.

Hopefully that shift will be even more pro-Israel (in the largest sense).

"...because the words are rolled up and sealed until the time of the end. Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand..."

Note the ליא in William. Reverse it to איל and it is "mogul" (lit. ram). Trump's SS codename.

George should be written with ' after the גs but again with mixed coding it gets weird so I am losing patience.
