What type of freedoms would Israel have today without the wall...?

[martian_22]

Bttt!

"There's a growing consensus that at some point in the mid-to-late '90s, there was a fundamental shift in the sophistication, breadth and re-sorting of Chinese defense planning,"

Hmmmm... Lets see. Who was president of the United States in the mid-to-late '90s? Could it be... Bill Clinton!

I wonder if there might be some connection. /s

I love Clancy.

We can return to Nam but not Bubba.

Isreal has no freedom or rights.. merely gov't granted privileges.. Isreal is a democracy(Mob Rule).. like Canada, and most all URPean countrys..

[ Ahhh...but there IS a Shepherd and there are yet tens of millions of Americans who recognize and follow Him. Ultimately, that will be the undoing of the globalists, socialists, tyrants and all oppressors. ]

My reading of scripture says that apostasy must happen and IS happening, and that apostasy is the cause of all this.. The only way to stop it is to stop the apostasy.. that ain't happening..
i.e it will get much much worse.. before it gets better..

And mankind has nothing to do with it getting better either..
Theres many versions of last time scenarios..(choose one)..
Actually there will be no revolution either.. sad to say in my opinion.. I like the shepard metaphor but I think if "Jesus" comes back.. hes goin to be really really pissed off.. and he ain't going to be "NICE"..

Metaphorically if he puts me on a proverbial horse.. "THEY" had better give their souls to God cause their ass is mine.. Crying won't faze me a bit..

They will wait until after the Olympics when nationalism will be at its zenith.

Remember they said the same thing about Japan in WWII. "They would never attack us, we trade to much with them".

Please cite your source for this patently false assertion.

[Jeff Head]

Apostacy must happen and is happening...but it never indicates that there will not be a remnant. In fact, my reading indicates there will be a remnant.

I believe that remnant (those that survive) can endrure through those horrific tribulations and hard times that are coming and be here to greet our Savior when He returns in the clouds.

...in addition, we do not know exactly when that will be, and thus, IMHO, are obliged to endure and keep trying in any case.

Great speaking with you.

[ Great speaking with you. ]

Talks about the trade with Japan pre 39. We where their biggest partner, and when FDR began to shut it off is when Japan started to see the US as a threat.

My initial comment was pertinent to the wall. Today Israel is experiencing internal difficulties yet so are we. The media/television which is being forced to alter programming there is being "influenced" here as well. Our Constitution has been continually ruled meaningless, why have a wall here?

thanks, joanie & jeff, and bump.

China is building its military forces faster than U.S. intelligence and military analysts expected, prompting fears that Beijing will attack Taiwan in the next two years, according to Pentagon officials.

The proximity of Australia is well within a few hours reach . .

I'm not sure who our greatest threat to the survival of this Republic is or not - the Chinese Gargantuan Military Monster or the United States Supreme Court.

It may take me awhile.

[Countyline]

Did you notice the ruling by the Supreme Court giving cities the right of taking "private property" for a better use for the cities? ... the case in point was for the purpose of building a shopping center that would increase city taxes ... is the way of communism.

When we lose the right of private property we are in a communist form of government.
If this decision is allowed to stand, if the congress does not pass new legislation in this regard , changing the courts action ... WE ARE A WORLD OF HURT.

The way things have been escalating, it would quickly expand and enlarge the use of the ruling made last week.

Only God can help us (our nation).

Read the Communist Manifesto and you'll see the current political plans for America!
