When leadership lacks God, wisdom and common sense
The man who occupies the Oval Office is now saying that Americans are "soft." He and a willing Congress incurred historically record debt on a nonsensical plan to spend the nation out of a recession; unemployment is over 9% with far more Americans now hopelessly unemployed; food and fuel prices have skyrocketed; a record number of people have lost their homes; the government will not defend our borders; American foreign policy is spending billions in support of terrorist organizations overthrowing governments--and because some 73% of the people believe the country is on the wrong track with over 40% saying the worst is yet to come--the president says we are soft. This is leadership? Hardly.
This Administration, and for the most part, this Congress--let's just say the Federal government--behaves insanely. It puts out reports that Christian Americans are a terrorist threat, yet refuses to deal with the real terrorist threat--Islam. In fact, when yet another Islamic is arrested for plotting terrorist acts, the Department of Justice--America's chief upholder of the law--has the nerve to say the Islamist Jihadist is "is not reflective of a particular culture, community or religion." The same Department of Justice recently sold weapons to Mexican drug cartel members in an effort to track their crimes. The result was an American border agent was killed, and even more crimes were committed using these weapons.
Its like there is no common sense whatsoever in the leadership of America. The president recently suggested that the European Union incur more debt to "recapitalize" their banks in avoiding a Euro-meltdown. German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schauble said it was a "stupid idea," making "no sense." He went on to say that the president should mind his own business and solve his own problems before giving advice to others. The entire idea of creating debt to get out of debt is stupid. Link that with ignoring two of the greatest threats to freedom--Islam and big government--and we have a "stupid" crisis on our hands, which amounts to a leadership crisis.
Many of America's leadership are products of the liberal '60's. They fell prey to the secular humanist, Soviet-inspired plan to undermine America called "Ideological Subversion." Former KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov described it as brainwashing left-leaning people to change their perception of reality so "no one is able to come to sensible conclusions." As a result we have godless leadership lacking wisdom. We are like Isaiah 59:13-14 which says, "In transgressing and lying against the Lord and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood. And judgment is turned away backward, and justice stands afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter."

DOJ: Islamic Terrorist not reflective of a particular culture or religion
The current Administration has issued warnings that the biggest terrorist threat to the nation is now home grown terrorists. The Administration has released a series of videos "See Something, Say Something" that encourage Americans to be suspicious of one another. Of course, the videos depict the terrorists as white and those reporting the terrorists as black. In April 2009, Homeland Security sent a report out to local law enforcement fingering "rightwing extremist radicalization" as the most dire threat. Included in that group were Christians who believed in the Bible's end time prophecies, returning Iraq and Afghanistan war vets, and conservative political groups. Now the FBI has arrested a home grown terrorist.
This terrorist, however, was not a rightwing, Christian, TEA Party, National Rifle Association card carrying veteran. He was representative of the real terrorist threat to America--Islam. The FBI foiled an attempt by Islamist Rezwan Ferdaus, a US citizen from Massachusetts, to blow up the Capital and the Pentagon. The FBI says Ferdaus planned to pack large model planes with C4 explosives and remotely fly them into the buildings in Washington, DC. Ferdaus, according to officials, told officials repeatedly that he wanted to conduct Jihad against Americans which he called "enemies of Allah." He thought he was buying 25 pounds of plastic explosives from al Qaeda operatives, who in reality were FBI agents.
According to the Justice Department, "Ferdaus, a Northeastern University graduate with a degree in physics, began planning to commit a violent "jihad" against the U.S. in early 2010. He obtained mobile phones, each of which he modified to act as an electrical switch for an IED. He then supplied the phones to FBI UCs, who he believed to be members of, or recruiters for, al Qaeda....Ferdaus believed that the devices would be used to kill American soldiers overseas. During a June 2011 meeting, he appeared gratified when he was told that his first phone detonation device had killed three U.S. soldiers and injured four or five others in Iraq. Ferdaus responded, "That was exactly what I wanted.""
The mainstream media is only reporting that Ferdaus is a "self-radicalized jihadist." Even U.S. Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz went out of the way to downplay that Ferdaus is Islamic saying, "I want the public to understand that Mr. Ferdaus' conduct, as alleged in the complaint, is not reflective of a particular culture, community or religion." Jeremiah 51:14 says, "Surely I will fill thee with men, as with locusts; and they shall lift up a battle cry against thee." Locust here means "devourer" and was sometimes a term that defined the nomadic Arab. So long as we ignore the root of these terrorists, we will be tormented by them. You can bet if it were a Christian who was caught, his religion would have been all over the media.

When suspending elections is no longer conspiracy theory
In the political circles there have been rumors and theories that the current regime in the White House may not recognize elections and try to remain in office without the people's consent. Often there are stories circulating the internet predicting the president will declare martial law and suspend the elections over some national emergency. Judy McLeod, an award winning journalist for the Canadian Free Press, reported September 28, " Seeing Obama golfing, holidaying and seeming not overly concerned about tanking in the polls, freedom lovers have been waiting almost three years now for the other shoe to drop. They know at heart that for a Marxist ideologue like Obama, the strategy of suspending elections fits."
The mere suggestion of such conjures visions of a third world banana republic having a dictator calling himself "president" for life--kind of like Venezuela's Hugo Chavez. The US Constitution would not allow such an act. But McLeod and others point out that the current occupier of the Oval Office has skirted the Constitution on many occasions. Certainly, ignoring the law has become a presidential precedent in this White House--refusing to issue permits for off shore drilling, selling assault weapons to Mexican drug cartel thugs, not enforcing the Defense of Marriage Act, giving taxpayer money to fund solar energy companies that contributed to the president's campaign--just to name a few.
But what gives McLeod's commentary legs is the proclamation by North Carolina Democratic Governor Bev Perdue speaking to the Cary Rotary Club: "You have to have more ability from Congress, I think, to work together and to get over the partisan bickering and focus on fixing things. I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that...You want people who don't worry about the next election." Her office later issued a statement that she was "obviously using hyperbole", but witnesses say Perdue's tone was quite serious.
Beltway Confidential reports September 14, the president told a hispanic group, "There are times where--until Nancy Pelosi is speaker again--I'd like to work my way around Congress...we've got laws on the books that have to be upheld. You know as well as anyone that...how we enforce those laws is also important." You have a president saying that he wants to work around Congress, enforce the laws the way he sees fit, and a prominent Democratic governor floating the trial balloon that elections ought to be suspended. Jesus said in Matthew 12:34, "O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh." As citizens, we ought to get to the heart of the matter.

Palestinian state: not about peace, but rather war

Palestinian state: not about peace, but rather war
The true colors of the "Palestinian" leadership were exposed moments before petitioning the United Nations for unilateral recognition as an official nation. The President of the Palestinian Authority Mahmoud Abbas told some 200 senior representatives of the US Palestinian community on Friday, September 23, "They talk to us about the Jewish state, but I respond to them with a final answer: We shall not recognize a Jewish state." Within hours, Abbas petitioned the United Nations to recognize as an official nation Palestine with Jerusalem as its capital. So we have the president of terrorist organizations demanding the UN recognize their state while at the same time refusing to recognize Israel.
Abbas also said that "Our people will continue their popular, peaceful resistance." This should leave anyone with any sense at all questioning Abbas' definition of "peaceful." Peaceful to Abbas and his terrorist supporters (Hamas is the main group within the PA political structure, Fatah another group--both are terrorist organizations) must mean something different than what is written in the dictionary. Rockets firing at Israeli households; brutal murder of Jewish families; suicide bombers; and destructive and violent riots. Egypt announced September 26 that it had seized eight anti-aircraft missiles and four shoulder launchers destined for Gaza. This is Abbas' "popular, peaceful resistance"?
The only conclusion that a sane person can draw from the action of these terrorist groups dressed as diplomats before the UN is that the Peace of Islam is a far cry from anybody else's definition of peace. The "peace" of the Palestinian Authority is the annihilation of Israel and bringing all peoples of that region under submission to Islam. The Americans and Europeans championing a Palestinian state are delusional that dividing Jerusalem and Israel into two pieces (Israel would be split from East to West by a ribbon of land from Gaza to Jordan and Samaria under the current plan) would bring about peace. It is a recipe for war and destruction.
There is a clear prophecy in Zechariah 12:3 saying, "And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it." This prophecy is specifically speaking of the Day of the Lord. We are not there yet. But as like birth pangs, where the pain comes stronger each time until the birth, prophecy can be witnessed in types and shadows the closer it comes to fulfillment. The nations gathered against Jerusalem wish to divide her into pieces shared by Jews, Christians and Islamists. The prophecy specifically says these nations will be cut in pieces. In this, there is no peace.

Isn't it just like satan?
The city of San Juan Capistrano, California was founded as a mission by Catholic priest Father Junipero Serra in 1776. According to the city's website: "The first chapel was built, completed, and is still in use today. It is believed to be the oldest church in California, and since it is one of only two still standing where Father Serra is known to have said Mass it is called "Father Serra's Church." But today, the city is embroiled in a fight over religious freedom, as it has fined Charles and Stephanie Fromm $300 for holding regular Bible study groups in their home. The Fromms' face additional $500 fines for each time they hold Bible studies in their home without a city permit.
The LA Times tried to interview city spokeswoman Cathy Salcedo, but she declined. The Times reports that she sent instead a brief email, emphatically denying that the city prohibits home Bible studies. She wrote the Times, "The Fromm case further involves regular meetings on Sunday mornings and Thursday afternoons with up to 50 persons, with impacts on the residential neighborhood on street access and parking." She claims that the fines are about when a residential area becomes a place where people regularly assemble, it is in violation of city ordinances. In order to continue holding the Bible studies, the Fromms' must have a conditional use permit because their meetings constitute a church.
The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) has taken the case on behalf of the Fromms'. PJI says that "Fromm was told by a hearing officer that regular gatherings of more than three people require a conditional use permit. Officials also stated that further religious gatherings in the home would be subject to a $500 fine per meeting. The City eventually rejected the appeal and Pacific Justice Institute has taken the next step by appealing the decision to the California Superior Court in Orange County." Chuck Fromm maintains that "the Bible study group, which met on Sunday mornings, until the City threatened further fines, was perfectly suited for his home."
PJI says on its website, "There was no noise beyond normal conversation and quiet music on the home stereo system. They met inside their family room and patio area. Many neighbors have written letters of support, denying they were disturbed by the presence of the Bible study. The group is not affiliated with any particular church, nor is it seeking to establish a church in the home." PJI says that a conditional use permit could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. There are several Constitutional issues, including the right of religious freedom, the right to peacefully assemble, and the right of privacy. Jude 1:3 instructs us to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints." And so we should.

Removing all doubt about the peace process
Mark Twain is credited with the quote: "It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than open ones mouth and remove all doubt." This is good advice, especially for former President Bill Clinton, who along with Jimmy Carter, just can't seem to leave us alone without espousing their brand of wisdom, which is foolishness. We should know that the Clinton machine will become more visible the closer we get to the Democratic nomination process. Clinton is hoping that the current failure in the White House will drop out of the race, clearing the way for his wife. Meantime, he is breaking his silence and removing all doubt about his prowess as a Middle East analyst.
According to Clinton, as reported in Foreign Policy, it is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who is to blame for not having a peace deal with the Palestinians. He said, "The most pro-peace Israelis are the Arabs; second the Sabras, the Jewish Israelis that were born there; third, the Ashkenazi of long-standing, the European Jews who came there around the time of Israel's founding. The most anti-peace are the ultra-religious, who believe they're supposed to keep Judea and Samaria, and the settler groups, and what you might call the territorialists, the people who just showed up lately and they're not encumbered by the historical record."
Clinton, of course, was promoting his own peace plan where East Jerusalem is given over to the terrorists as a capital. He said, "[Palestinian leaders] have explicitly said on more than one occasion that if [Netanyahu] put up the deal that was offered to them before -- my deal -- that they would take it." He was referring to the 2000 Camp David deal rejected by Yasser Arafat. Clinton said that the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin and the stroke of Ariel Sharon "make you wonder if God wants Middle East peace or not." It is obvious that even though Clinton carried a Bible to church each Sunday he went during his presidency that he is not up to speed with its content.
Here Clinton is saying that the most pro-peace Israelis are the Palestinian terrorists and the most anti-peace are the ultra-religious who believe they are supposed to keep Judea and Samaria. And this is the way that many world leaders think. Their logic is totally flawed. There will not be peace so long as the Palestinian representatives believe that Israel should be destroyed. Giving them an official country only guarantees more violence, as evidenced by the events coming from Gaza. Jeremiah 8:11 says, "For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace." Another translation says "They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious..."

Truth in Palestinian diplomacy hid to them that are lost
The mainstream media didn't catch it. The diplomats running to and fro didn't catch it either, but what is being reported as the Palestinian's peace offering is in actuality a threat. Haaretz is reporting that the senior negotiator for a Palestinian state, Nabil Shaath, said that "The UN is the only alternative to violence. It will be very costly to us and the Israelis. Our new heroes are Gandhi, Mandela and Martin Luther King." He went on to say that the Palestinian side would give the UN Security Council "some time" to consider its full membership to the UN, a large first step to the terrorist body's statehood bid, seeking to split Israel into two pieces with Jerusalem as its capital.
Shaath said, "We are not seeking to join the mafia or al-Qaeda, we seek membership of the UN. It will give us the right to promote our rights." There is so much said in these very few words. First and foremost, given the past performance of the terrorist groups Hamas, the al Aksa Brigades, Fatah and Hezbollah--all organizations that make up the Palestinian Authority, either publicly or privately--a discerning person must have understanding that Shaath was threatening violence. Shaath said that the UN was the only alternative to violence. From a terrorist perspective this could only mean that if they do not get their way at the UN, there will be more violence.
The threat of violence and violence delivered are the only keys to any Palestinian strategy. While the Palestinian Authority under its President Mahmoud Abbas has been dressed up and cleansed by American and European diplomats, the thugs running behind the scenes are akin to the mafia and al-Qaeda. In fact, it has been recently reported that al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood have taken stronger roles in the so-called Palestinian Territories. All these entities call for the total destruction of Israel. One only has to look at the map presented by the Palestinian Authority on its UN website to understand. It shows the PA's claim to a Palestine that stretches throughout Israel--Israel is eliminated on this map.
These are days in which the membership of the Palestinian Authority openly vow that Israel should be wiped off the map. Their rhetoric is the most hateful and vitriol of any generation since the Third Reich. Yet, diplomats and politicians seem to want to believe the image picture presented of non-violent leadership rather than the hard cold realities of terrorist destruction. The ramifications of these events are found in the Bible. But as the Apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 4:3, 4, "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."

Haaretz is reporting that the senior negotiator for a Palestinian state, Nabil Shaath, said that "The UN is the only alternative to violence. It will be very costly to us and the Israelis. Our new heroes are Gandhi, Mandela and Martin Luther King." He went on to say that the Palestinian side would give the UN Security Council "some time" to consider its full membership to the UN, a large first step to the terrorist body's statehood bid, seeking to split Israel into two pieces with Jerusalem as its capital.
Shaath said, "We are not seeking to join the mafia or al-Qaeda, we seek membership of the UN. It will give us the right to promote our rights." There is so much said in these very few words. First and foremost, given the past performance of the terrorist groups Hamas, the al Aksa Brigades, Fatah and Hezbollah--all organizations that make up the Palestinian Authority, either publicly or privately--a discerning person must have understanding that Shaath was threatening violence. Shaath said that the UN was the only alternative to violence. From a terrorist perspective this could only mean that if they do not get their way at the UN, there will be more violence.
The threat of violence and violence delivered are the only keys to any Palestinian strategy. While the Palestinian Authority under its President Mahmoud Abbas has been dressed up and cleansed by American and European diplomats, the thugs running behind the scenes are akin to the mafia and al-Qaeda. In fact, it has been recently reported that al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood have taken stronger roles in the so-called Palestinian Territories. All these entities call for the total destruction of Israel. One only has to look at the map presented by the Palestinian Authority on its UN website to understand. It shows the PA's claim to a Palestine that stretches throughout Israel--Israel is eliminated on this map.
These are days in which the membership of the Palestinian Authority openly vow that Israel should be wiped off the map. Their rhetoric is the most hateful and vitriol of any generation since the Third Reich. Yet, diplomats and politicians seem to want to believe the image picture presented of non-violent leadership rather than the hard cold realities of terrorist destruction. The ramifications of these events are found in the Bible. But as the Apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 4:3, 4, "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them."
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
