11 Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, “Rise and measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there. But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months.

I had the opportunity to read the following article that I’m going to link that describes a number of things that I was not aware of as to how Israel policy is made and it certainly worth reading.

More BS from a Biden lackey. Why do they call it the Temple Mount? Answer because the Israelites built the temple to The Lord on that mount many centuries before Mohammad was born. It was the Roman army that destroyed the Temple subsequent to an Israelite rebellion. A replacement Temple should have been built on that mount a long time ago.
Blights on Mount Moriah where Avraham offered Issac, and where the Temples stood.
I walked the Temple Mount this Spring. While I had no interest in the muslim superiority blights, I walked the rest unimpeded.
The West is growing tired of this conflict.
But in the Middle East it has come to a flash point where both sides have people wanting this to come to a final and violent solution.
His words are intended to piss people off.
Nothing like slipping the shiv to an ally, right Matt?
I would love to go
I voted for Ben Gvir, but as a Minister of Security, he’s a total bust. October 7 was his baby, and instead of just doing he job, he keeps saying inflammatory sh!t. Not helpful. Not even useful, except for firing up his Kahanaite base, inflaming Arabs and giving the Brandonistas a chance to virtue signal and say stupid sh!t. We have enough arsonists here, and enough fires to put out. I’m not voting for him again.
There are more than two sides, contrary to what the fake news leads one to believe. Doubtless there are people who want a violent conclusion. Violence is cheap and easy. Per Asimov (Foundation), it’s the first resort of the incompetent.
The ones screaming loudest and advocating war often feel they are patriotic as they lead their nation and people into ruin.
I know Israel has many different groups.
Restraint, moderation, and compromise, you need leadership and people that are striving for peace for that.
That’s not what I see today regards Israel. Netanyahu, the current government and the policies of late are worrisome:
