The United States condemned the words of Shas' spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef against PA President Mahmoud Abbas and Palestinian Arabs. A statement released the by the US State Department said that Rabbi Yosef's words are "not only very harmful, but also affect the efforts to achieve peace."

Rabbi Yosef made a public wish on Saturday night during his weekly sermon that "our enemies and haters may come to an end, Abu Mazen and all these villains – may the Holy One, Blessed Be He, afflict them with the plague... these evil enemies of Israel."

Took days to condemn the murder of a military recruiter. Took hours to attack a Rabbi.

Has the “US” condemned Reverend Jeremiah Wright?

God is not mocked. What this administration sows is what they will reap. It may look like they are paying little or no price now, but there is a Psalm that explains it all. 73. The applicable verse:

How they are destroyed in a moment! They are utterly swept away by sudden terrors!

Hmm. No coincidence that this very Psa. begins:

Surely God is good to Israel.

If I was Obama, I’d be learning how to duck.

What that Rabbi said is tame compared to the vile that’s spewed out of many Muslim mosques all over the ME.

What part of “death to the Jews” chants coming over Palestinian television controlled by Abbas do they not understand ?
Do their chants = a call for peace ?

“There is nowhere to hide from God’s wrath”

Maybe Obama could find a ship sailing for Tarshish. ;)

He is more likely to pursue fleeing Jews between two oddly vertical walls of water.

For a time.

A much better analogy! Plus, I laughed like a hyena when I read it, and that’s worth a lot in my book. ;)

Good! It is good to laugh.

Still, the arrogance, hardness of heart, and seething malice do remind me of pharaoh, and always have. He will not end well, nor will those who ride alongside of him.

Btw, did you happen to catch Don Feder’s amazingly great column, “Church of Obama Speaks With Prophetic Voice of Saul Alinsky, Not Saul of Tarsus”?

Feder has written some great stuff before, but I think this might actually be his best yet. He worked some pretty good humor into it, such as:

“If I can analogize Obama’s perspective on Christianity, it’s like asking a Jew, “What do you think of the Torah?” And he responds: “Interesting book, filled with historical figures like Moses and Isaiah. There’s a lot of food for thought there. Can’t wait for the screen adaptation.” “

In case you missed it, here’s the addy.

I think you captured it all with the phrase, “seething malice”. That is the heart of Obama, from what I have seen. He is so filled with hate and rage, it’s a wonder he hasn’t imploded by now. All malignant narcissists have deep wellsprings of rage, but I think Obama takes the cake. I’ve seen photos of him where the anger shows through. Scary, scary stuff.

My prayer is that his reign ends peacefully, but well ahead of schedule. I.e.: I wish him no harm, but I would love to see him out of office PRIOR to the end of his term.

This will be a test of equal criticism when it comes to a statement from Hezbollah or Hamas. Bet they fail since the track record is so dismal.

Alan Keyes told me all I needed to know about Obama when Keyes recounted the facts behind and the course of the BAIPA legislation. Everything revealed since is merely supplemental information.

The callousness required to hold the position and present the obstruction to BAIPA as Obama did marks him as one seared in the conscience, long ago. I look at the photo of Obama as a delighted and delightful child on his new tricycle, and contrast them with the flat, void eyes which he has today, and shudder.

Millstones, necks, and the wages of sin.

God deliver us from evil.

God Bless you, Rabbi. This Catholic boy stands with you 100% in this matter.

This is nonsense, but to be expected from Obama's gang. Will the State Department also be reviewing the content of sermons coming from the mosques in the Middle East and commenting on those? "Shake the grounds beneath their feet and freeze the blood in their veins" is a staple when the imams refer to Jews and Christians".

The MEMRI website has been translating the words of imams and ME politicians for years, and nothing coming out of Israel compares. But the State Department always is uninterested in that.

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem







King David Said a lot worse in his Imprecatory Psalms!
Come And Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem. If You want to be on the list, just ask.

'"At that Time, when I Restore the Prosperity of Judah and Jerusalem," says the Lord,
"I will Gather the Armies of the World into the "Valley Where G-d Judges,"
And Punish them there for Harming My People,
For Scattering My Inheritance Among the Nations,
and Dividing Up My Land."' (Joel 3:1, 2)





Hallelujah and Amen
