Where Do YOU Stand Regarding the Nation of Israel? [Update 4]

No matter what you may think personally about Glenn Beck, he is certainly doing a great service for God's people - the Jews of Israel - by exposing the Arab/Muslim/Socialist/Islamo-Fascist, Radical Leftist agenda cohorts who are using the Palestinian desire for a land of their own as a reason to hate and work towards exterminating the Jewish people in order to allow the confiscation of the land of the Jewish Nation and overtaking the Holy City of Jerusalem.

If you missed today's Glenn Beck Program on Fox News Channel, go to The Daily Beck (video should be up in a few hours) to see and hear the stories of several actual survivors of the Holocaust. I was absolutely riveted during today's broadcast.

UPDATE:  Video is up:

Watch The Glenn Beck TV Show: June 2nd 2011. Tonight, an emotional show you do not want to miss. Glenn speaks passionately and from the heart…an emotional appeal to stand firm in the face of evil.

It is absolutely appalling to me that the hatred of the Jews (particularly, hatred against Zionism) is back just 66 years after the establishment of the Jewish State!! Those who worked so hard to give the Jews back their homeland after the horrors of the Holocaust during WWII would probably never believe what is happening in today's world. The ratcheting up of anti-Semitism by the so-called "Arab Spring" uprisings is being used as an excuse. They are NOT ON THE ROAD TO DEMOCRACY. The Muslim Brotherhood is just as bad as the Nazis were in Germany!

I wonder. Are today's high school students being taught about the horrors of the Holocaust driven by Hitler's Nazi Germany? Or is it something that the liberals in education think isn't relevant anymore? Does anyone out their know the answer to my question? I am being serious.

When Glenn did a show on The Holodomor - the forced starvation of millions of people in the Ukraine, I asked my daughter to sit down and watch the show with me. She stated that she never learned about this "secret holocaust" in school. Why is that??

You know the old saying, "those who do not know history are destined to repeat it." This is what Beck is extremely worried about today because the horrors of the Holocaust of Nazi Germany is being ignored and even denied (by Iminajihad of Iran and other Arab leaders and nations). Young people who follow every word of the liberal elites who dominate the news stations here in America are not getting the truth anymore. They are targets of the propaganda of those who toe the line of the radicals who want to "change our history" here in America and around the world. How do they get away with it? I think it is because the young people in high school and college do not do their own homework on such issues and take in the Kool-aid propaganda being spewed by the Hollyweird, MTV, and liberal professors who only want to present one side of the story.

While watching Beck's show today, I could not help but remember how horrified I was when my history teacher showed a film about the Holocaust. I could not believe man's inhumanity to man. I got so choked up with tears that I had to ask the teacher to give me a bathroom pass. What I was seeing on the screen in the school on that day unnerved me and made me weep uncontrollably. My generation, the Baby Boomers, knew all about the Holocaust because many of our dads served in the military during those years. With the State of Israel being born just nine years before I was born, our educational system certainly covered what happened during World War II in graphic detail. Today, I'm not sure whether or not it is even given a blip on the radar screen in history classes. Here in California, "gay" and soon "transgender" history is more important to the fools who run public education in this decade. Never thought I'd see such a day, but God knew. The history regarding the evil and sin during the times of Noah (The Flood) and Lot (Sodom and Gomorrah) includes the rampant abomination of homosexual behavior. I'm getting a bit off topic so I will refer you to previous posts on this subject, The Days of Noah Are Here; Jesus Said "As In The Days of Noah; More Days of Lot and Noah; and The Times of the Signs - The Days of Lot.

Just as the Bible is clear about the behavior of homosexuality being sin, God's Word is clear about what will happen to the nations that gather up in the last days in order to destroy the apple of God's eye - the Nation of Israel.

What those who think that Israel should give up land to the Palestinians do not know is that God intends for Israel NEVER to be divided ever again.


Eze 37:21 "Then say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;


Eze 37:22 "and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king over them all; they shall no longer be two nations, nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again.


Eze 37:23 "They shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. Then they shall be My people, and I will be their God.

There are many, many more verses that I could share regarding prophesies that tell us God's intention that Israel should not be divided (especially the Holy City of Jerusalem!!) and I invite readers here to include them in your comments.

Be back later for more...

Update 6/3/11

The unfriendliness of the Obamafraud Administration towards the Jewish State of Israel has already been documented (unlike our current pResident in the White House but that's another story) through the mistreatment shown towards Benjamin Netanyahu and the fawning over Israel's enemies in the ironically named "Arab Spring" uprisings. But did you know that such unfriendliness extends towards a group of Jewish singers too?  Check this out:

UPDATE #3:

WOW!!! I was reading through some links and comments over at American Thinker and came across this gem:

Posted by: Bear1909 May 25, 10:18 PM

Soros, Brezinski and their Puppet (President "Real Boy") launched a trial balloon to gauge how much the American electorate would submit to Islam and the sharia. That is the goal for breaking American democracy--- set up a shadow society in America by blowing the smithereens out of the MIddle East and let it emigrate here to "Prison Island" America. Let the refugee "question" come here....give them the Gulf Coast, the California Central Valley--- as the Holy Land will become uninhabitable while the Cloward Piven strategy overwhelms diplomacy and foreign policy. The coming crisis ignores the liberal press speaking of "revolution" and "Freedom" in the middle east: a firestorm has been ignited. And Israel is cornered now. It will end badly and the refugees will be brought here. End of the US. de facto sharia--- the gutter code of a latent beastly nature in the hearts of delusional men of Allah.

We accepted the executive order to import 20,000 "palestinians" immediately following his inauguration in January 2009. 20,000 of the sleeper cells of Hamas....with full support upon arrival and eventual passage of relatives. we just let it happen. we let CAIR continue to operate in the nation's capital as unindicted co-conspirators. we let TSA subject us to searches which Muslims have been exempted from by civil rights laws. the mosques are off limits to inspection for arms and seditious sermons advocating jihad. there is no effort to prosecute 501 c 3 mosques for racketeering under RICO. Ground Zero Mosque and that t*rd imam rauf promoting it as a building of goodwill. we have taken it all. but now the back stiffens at pre-1967 borders. how will the overwhelm proceed in the face of resistance? in the face of the wild cards the PTB have not calculated are going to be put in play by a cornered Israel.

And, this American Thinker commentator has Obama pegged...big time!

Posted by: rachelc May 27, 03:08 AM

There is no walking back his statements or his actions. He made it crystal clear what side he's on. He's been making it crystal clear since he got elected. His sympathies lie with the Islamic world...because that's the world he was raised in. So Jews...take heed. This man is NOT your friend. He is not a friend of Israel. Nor is he much of a friend to America because he's done nothing but hurt us with all of his flawed and irresponsible policies.

UPDATE # 4:

Here's a an article that backs the fact that the Palestinians are not decendants from the ancient Philistines. Read Townhall columnist Michael Brown: More Facts on the Myth of the Palestinian People

Netanyahu Rejects Obamas Stupid & Dangerous Plan

It is SO DIFFICULT for me to speak with anyone who works for the State Department and thinks that Obama's request for Israel to go back to the pre-1967 border is a good idea. THATS LUDICROUS!!! It pains me even more knowing that this individual claims to be "mostly conservative."  Does one HAVE TO agree with a stupid and dangerous plan just because they work there???

Folks, it is a bit too early to go all in on any presidential candidate, but here's my favorite, for now.

*******
Know what?  I was proud of my decision to vote for Tom McClintock for governor of California instead of RINO Arnold.  Schwartenegger's celebrity didn't mask his bad liberal politics and policies.  I'm even MORE glad that I never cast a vote for him after finding out about his infidelity to his wife and the heartbreak the scandal must be causing for his entire family.  What a dirt bag!!
Tom McClintock certainly was an underdog in that political race.  But upholding my morals and values and ethics when I voted for him in the Republican primary back then was more important to me than for the candidate to win.  Many people may not agree with me on this, but  it was important to me as a Christian first,  wife and mother second, and conservative third in my life.
If Sarah Palin decides to run, she will have my vote throughout the political election process.  I pray that she (or another Christian conservative like Herman Cain or Michele Bachmann) wins.  We need to have a leader who will take us in the right direction here in America - a direction that God would approve of - not the socialist, Islamo-fascist, "throw America and Israel under the bus" kind of disastrous, traitorous, and treasonous direction that the resident puppet in the White House and all of his Soros-led puppeteers are taking our beloved nation!

Obama Has Betrayed Israel

I plan to do a huge linkfest tomorrow on Obama's betrayal of Israel in his speech today. For now please see Beck: U.S. Policy Trouble For Israel

Tonight: Who needs Yasser Arafat when you have the President of the United States saying what he did today in his speech regarding Israel? Something happened today for the first time in history. Glenn believes the President has betrayed one of our strongest allies in Israel. It appears that the President’s policy is to see a two state solution. It appears he wants to divide Israel up, which basically will kill it.

Glenn on Israel, Islam, plus a Liberal Democrat Guests on Show

WOW!!! Glenn Beck's show tonight was truly awesome! He started out his show discussing his trip to Israel and further pointing out how Israel is "being set up" and why.

Summary at The Daily Beck.com

Tonight: Glenn is back from Israel and has lots to say. There is an endgame afoot for man’s freedom and the Western way of life and the end will begin in Israel. Why is Glenn focusing on the Middle East and Israel? Israel is the beginning of what could be the end of man’s freedom…we must learn from history. Find out more tonight.

He also points out that there is a march against capitalism, man's freedom, and the Western way of life in this world.  America and Israel, in particular, are being targeted.

Unfortunately, some Americans aren't even paying any attention to this important matter. Who knows why? Perhaps it is because they are too busy worrying about their own individual lives to care? Or maybe they are just too darn busy and exhausted at the end of the day to watch and/or listen to the show? I don't know the reason(s) why many more lovers of our great nation - true American Patriots - aren't extremely appalled by what is going on via our current gangster government (did you hear about that awful rapper "Common" performing at the White House? You know - the guy that glorifies cop killers in his lyrics? DISGUSTING. Barack and Michelle should be totally ashamed of themselves for giving this creep a platform at the People's House!!! But that is a story for another blog post), and it's radical socialist/communist/Islamo-fascist ideology being spread here and around the world; then you are allowing treason to go on right under our noses!

But don't take my word for it. Go to the link above and watch the entire Glenn Beck Program for today, Wednesday, May 11, 2012 and see with your own eyes Glenn interviewing a liberal democrat who believes in social justice and supports teachers unions (she and Glenn do not have that in common, of course) who GETS IT and is exposing an awful radical curriculum that is being taught to kids in Arizona.

Be sure to watch the entire show because the first part is about Israel and the second part includes an interview between liberal democrat Loretta Hunnicutt and Glenn discussing the horrors of what is being taught to children in public schools that even Hunnicutt (a liberal democrat!!) deems as treasonous to America!

Beck's Show: In Defense of Israel

The Glenn Beck Program aired "In Defense of Israel" yesterday and it was one of the most important, most riveting, and highly effective topics that he has ever presented on his show!

It is so chock full of pertinent information that I need to watch the video again in order to absorb all that was stated by the guests and presented during the show!

Watch Glenn Beck: In Defense of Israel

Commentary at site:

Tonight: A must-see program. Why should the U.S. be standing with Israel? Israel is the only country in the Middle East that shares American values. They are constantly provoked and attacked, yet despite having a heavy nuclear arsenal they have not yet launched a single one. If that wasn't enough- in the Bible, God promises His wrath on those who turn against Israel. We should be standing with them- but at least so far, we have chosen to remain silent. Joining Glenn and the studio audience tonight are Pastor John Hagee, Rabbi Joseph Potasnik and former Israeli Amb. to the United Nations, Dore Gold.


I personally think that it is terribly appalling how this current U.S. administration has treated the Sovereign Nation of Israel and her current leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as the military and all of the people of Israel.

After you watch the entire show, think about all of the instances (e.g. the flotilla incident, the brutal murder of a Jewish family etc.) and recall how this current gangster government masquerading as "leaders" of our nation, reacted (or didn't react) to such incidents. The media of mass deception (except for Glenn's show on Fox) didn't even discuss the murdered Jewish family.

How disgusted most of the American people (who are paying attention to what is really going on) must be to see one of our most loyal and treasured allies in the Middle East being treated like "enemies," while this administration caters to the REAL ENEMIES - the radical Islamists and dictators in the Muslim world! How much more are we supposed to take of this!!!!????

The election of 2012 can't get here fast enough.

I think that the press is lying about Obama's favorability ratings. I think that they are MUCH LOWER than they are presenting in the so-called polls that are out there.  I pray every day that God would have mercy on our nation and that Obama WON'T be re-elected.

As I had stated before in this previous post, America needs a candidate who loves God, His Word, and our Nation! Included in loving God and His Word is the fact that the nation of Israel is the "apple of God's eye" and the people of the nation are HIS PEOPLE!!

Lest we forget, during the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, Jesus was a Jewish carpenter! His ministry was first for the Jews, and then for the Gentiles.

One thing that stood out to me during the broadcast was a brief exchange between Pastor John Hagee and Rabbi Joseph Potasnik where Hagee mentioned the return of the Messiah. He stated that the Rabbi and him may disagree on Who the Messiah is. But it was interesting to note that the Rabbi said, "I want to be there with you."

This reminded me, once again, of an exchange that happened between Reverend Billy Graham and Larry King one night when King was interviewing Graham on his show. The dialogue went something like this (paraphrased here):

Billy Graham: If Jesus were to return today, what one question would you like to ask him?

Larry King: Is this your first or second visit to this earth?


Yes. It is true that some Jews do not see Jesus Christ as the Messiah they have been waiting for. They did not recognize Him when he came to this earth to save mankind from his sins over 2,000 years ago. But what happens when Christ returns and they DO recognize Him at His Second Coming? This is what many Christians believe will happen.

There are also Messianic Jews who hold to the Old Testament traditions, but also recognize Jesus Christ as Messiah.

I do not mean to be simplistic within this commentary, but I hope that what I have shared (though, definitely not comprehensive) helps demonstrate the unique relationship between Christians and Jews and why we must STAND IN DEFENSE OF ISRAEL!!!

Watch Glenn Beck: The Daily Beck

So...What Happened to Beck's Friday Show? [Update]

By now, most bloggers have already heard that Fox News is discontinuing Glenn Beck's daily T.V. program. It is not clear how soon he will depart, but from what I understand, his current contract runs out at the end of December.

So many of the rabid liberals are claiming "victory," but should they? The various Soros-led organization creeps have been trying to get Beck off the air for at least a year. Why would their continuous failures to utilize boycotts against Beck's sponsors for over 12 months suddenly change minds at Fox News now?

I've been thinking about this new development regarding Beck's show and I had a gut feeling that the REAL reason for Glenn's departure might be something other than Beck's successful exposure of the evil Soros and his communist "new world order" ilk. After all, even though there are claims that Beck's ratings went down, his show still trounced the competition in that time slot. So, what gives?

I wanted to write about it this weekend, but decided to wait to see what would be broadcast on Glenn's show today during his week-long absence (while he is on tour with a live show). Now that Beck's show has already been broadcast today and Judge Andrew Napolitano subbed for him, I can share my suspicions about the REAL reason Beck is leaving his daily show.

Let me back up a bit.

Over the weekend, I read a very interesting post via "Evil Conservative blog" that told a story that Rupert Murdoch's son (and heir apparent) has been elevated to the "number three" rank of company executives and is thought to already be calling some of the shots for the network.

Read about it here:

Diana West: Fox News: Connect the Dots Time?

OK. I have now set the stage for my theory.

On Wednesday (or Thursday?) of last week, I heard a segment of Glenn's radio show where he had a discussion with evangelist Pastor John Hagee. They were discussing Hagee's upcoming appearance on Beck's show (Friday, April 8, 2011). It was entitled "Standing With Israel." Hagee is well known for being a supporter of Israel and God's chosen people - the Jews.

Of course, Glenn's show was preempted on this particular Friday because of the budget battle crisis that was looming towards a possible shut-down of the federal government. That's understandable. However, Beck's Friday shows are usually taped in advance, so why wasn't it shown today (Monday, April 11, 2011)?

I wondered whether or not I may have missed the broadcast over the weekend, so I checked the Watch Glenn Beck website that usually has a video up of each day's T.V. program. As you will see, the last video up at the site is the broadcast of Thursday, April 7, 2011.

Diana West? I think that you are on to something!

If the show never does air, then we will know why:

Excerpt:

What connects these disparate incidents? Beside a short time-frame, I don't know. I do know James Murdoch is known for his trash talk about Israel (sez the Palestinians "were kicked out of their f— homes and had nowhere to f— live"), his green enthusiasms (News Corp. is the first entertainment conglom to be "carbon neutral") and for being a former hip hop impressario (wow; not my dream date). The 38-year-old is also very, very close to 56-year-old Prince Talal, and was Talal's choice to succeed Murdoch (chalk one up for Talal).

Not one to let politics to get in the way of profits, I am sure, it is also the case that as a Talal-pal (not to mention everything else), James is likely to keep certain things out of the way of Fox politics. I would imagine that Hannity's recent maiden voyages into "sharia" talk (bet that's all over with) and Beck's ongoing explorations of sharia and Islam don't fit his bill.

Be sure to read the links provided at West's blog, especially THIS ONE!

Hat Tip:

Diana West

P.S. Diana West's comparison (view at link above) of James Murdoch to Zhivago's Strelnikov is quite accurate!! Striking resemblance both in features and disgusting mindset!

*******

Update: The fan who posts Glenn's shows at Watch Glenn Beck wrote:

Also, last Friday's "In Defense of Israel" special with Pastor John Hagee that was preempted will be airing this Friday at 5:00 Eastern on Fox News

That's certainly good news!! This is one special Friday show that I have been looking forward to!

Based on what I have been reading about Murdoch Jr. and his rabid hatred for Israel, I worry that such special and positive shows about Israel will be a thing of the past.

Update:

More blog posts about Glenn Beck's departure from daily T.V. at Fox News:

Rumors of Beck’s Demise are Greatly Exaggerated.

Excerpt:

Before Media Matters and the other leftists out there get overly giddy with their perceived victory, I have a few words of caution for you. Beck has not departed the national scene – far from it and his dance card is full. All of us – not just Beck – are gearing up to come after you ten times more than we have previously. We are not financed as you are, but we have something you don’t have – a love of country; a devotion to what is right and honest. Our research and our fight has just begun. When Beck says you will long for the days that he was on Fox, he means it. He will be reaching out to more and more to spread the truth to those who will listen. He is connecting with all those who will fight the bottom up, top down, inside out strategy of Obama’s goon squads. Soros’ victory over Beck is a false one – you have only encouraged him to follow his conscience and take the fight to a new level.

Iron Dome Successfully Intercepts Gaza Rockets for First Time

Just heard on Fox News that Israel launched (for the first time) a 200 million dollar weapon to defeat a Gaza attack on that nation. Will add information and links here as I find it.

Via Drudge, I found this article about it:

Haaretz.com: Iron Dome successfully intercepts Gaza rockets for first time

Excerpt:

Missile defense system intercepts two rockets fired at Ashkelon as three rockets from Gaza land in open area in Negev; IDF launches strike on targets in Gaza following attack on school bus earlier in the day.

The Iron Dome missile defense system on Thursday successfully intercepted for the first time two rockets that were fired at the Israeli city of Ashkelon from the Gaza Strip.

According to reports from the area, the interception could be seen in Israeli towns near northern Gaza. The second Iron Dome battery was positioned in the area of Ashkelon over the weekend, in addition to a battery already placed north of Be'er Sheva.

Thank God for the knowledge to enable Israel to develop this much needed missile defense system! Israel is the apple of God's eye and her protection is evident in this latest development of technology that will thwart all of the Arab and Muslim nations that are hell-bent on destroying Her.

Beck Show: Stand With Israel / A Child Prodigy

Did you see the Glenn Beck Program on the Fox News Channel today? If not, please go to Watch Glenn Beck later today when the entire show will be available for viewing. [NOTE: CHECKED BACK AT 4:24 p.m. PT and the video is up now.]

It might be helpful to watch yesterday's show (at the same link) because it was related to the first half of today's show.

Excerpt of yesterday's show:

Tonight: As the Middle East continues to burn, the United States - and most of the world for that matter - have not taken a firm enough stance in alliance with Israel. Instead, the Obama administration has been silent as groups like the Muslim Brotherhood start to work their way into power in Egypt and other countries. Israel is the only country in the Middle East that shares American values. They are constantly provoked and attacked, yet despite having a heavy nuclear arsenal they have not launched a single one. We should be standing with them- but at least so far, we have chosen to remain silent...

In tonight's show (check link above for video later tonight), Beck demonstrates how "surrounded" Israel is by all of the Arab/Muslim nations that have called for Her destruction. I have often quoted one of the most profound Bible prophecies that uses the ancient names of current nations that would rise up against Israel in the last days.

If you would like to read about this incredible prophecy made by David, see:

David's Incredible Prophecy Of Israel's Enemies Today.

*******


The second half of Beck's show introduced today's T.V. audience to a 12-year old college student named Jacob Barnett. Today, he is considered a brilliant young man. But if you read about his life story, you will see the challenges that he and his parents faced when he was only 18 months old.

Boy Genius, 12, Has Higher IQ Than Einstein, Developing His Own Theory of Relativity

Excerpt:

Kristine Barnett won't soon forget the "most devastating day in the life" of her son.

Jacob, called "Jake," her then 3-year-old, had recently stopped talking and had been diagnosed with autism. One day, she dropped him off at a gymnastics class, and, when she returned to pick him up, Barnett, 36, says she found all the other students sitting in a circle, while Jake was curled up and cowering in a corner.

"It was the day I knew Jake would never do sports or be like other kids later in life," the day care provider and mother of four tells ParentDish. "My heart broke, thinking he would be trapped inside this forever and never be able to talk to us."

But today, 12-year-old Jake is studying electromagnetic physics at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis and has an IQ of 170, higher than that of Albert Einstein. And he's astounding university professors by developing his own theory of relativity -- they're lining him up for a Ph.D research role, Barnett, of Noblesville, Ind., says.

When Jake was 8, he jumped from fifth grade to college after teaching himself all the high school math classes -- calculus, algebra, geometry and trigonometry -- in one week and testing at college-level mathematics, Barnett recalls.

Recently, the boy has embarked on his own expanded version of Einstein's theory of relativity. Barnett sent a video of his theory to the renowned Institute for Advanced Study near Princeton University.

After a devastating diagnosis of Aspergers syndrome this child has grown to be a child genius.

What a fabulous indication of God's plan in a life - going from tragedy to triumph in such an enormous way in this young man's life!
