A Cauldron of Hate

A recently published book,

"Stories of Qalandiya Shalids"

(1967-2017)

glorifies the acts of terrorists

residing within the Arab refugee camps

adjacent to the city of Jerusalem.

It's publication has many Israeli

citizens concerned, and rightly so.

This book, published by an outfit called,

Qalandiya Media Center, hopes

that the material published within it

will "inspire" Palestinian, or Arab children,

to commit similar acts of murder and mayhem,

against those whom they are being taught 

 are their oppressors, and whom are 

 unlawfully occupying their homeland, 

 namely, the nation and people of Israel.

Little Girls Lost

Indoctrinating innocent children in the culture of hatred

and violence against Israel

It seems that child sacrifice is an

important ritual of passage in the minds

of most Palestinian parents, at least those willing

to sacrifice their precious children

in the name of "the cause".

 Yet, it is not Israel which oppresses them.

Israel is not "occupying" their homeland.

There is no "homeland" because there

is no nation called, "Palestine".

Palestine is the former name of a

region in the Near East which 

over the course of world history

 has seen many occupying forces,

 Romans, Ottoman Turks, and in more recent

times, the once mighty forces of

the British Empire.

But this region of land never really belonged 

 to any of these occupying forces either.

This land belongs to God.

And God gave this land to His own

adopted people and nation, Israel.

In 1948, when the newly reborn nation

of Israel took her place among the nations,

the only two nations in the Near East to acknowledge her

existence were non-Arab Iran and Turkey.

The surrounding Arab nations not only refused to

recognize Israel, but, purged their own nations of Jews,

many of whose families had lived there for generations.

 Innocent Jewish men and women, even children, were

attacked, and many were murdered.

Their homes and businesses were ransacked and

burned while their synagogues were razed by 

mobs of angry Arabs.

The systematic purging of Jews from Arab lands

 caused a mass exodus of the homeless

to seek safety and refuge in the renewed Israel,

a nation which according to biblical prophesy,

"was born in a single day."

You never hear much about the Arab pogroms

in the world media today. Yet, a strong

prejudice against Israel persists unjustly.

Furthermore, just who really is to blame

 for the much media propagandized,

"Palestinian refugee problem"

 in the first place?

While the Israeli people have been forced to fight 

many battles in order to survive as a people and a nation,

the real blame for the long standing refugee crisis lays at the

feet of their enemies, whom decided to 

 attack Israel in the first place.

With little regard for the welfare of the

thousands of men, women, and children,

 caught up in the ensuring violence of war,

the combined forces of the Arab nations

used everything in their arsenal to try and

wipe out the object of their intense hatred,

yet, the little fledgling nation of Israel

valiantly fought back, and won every time.

In their quest to "drive Israel into the sea"

through the War of Independence, the Six Day War,

the Yom Kippur War and numerous other skirmishes,

the Arab nations have failed miserably

 to protect their own people.

Ironically, in more recent days, it has been Israel 

providing much needed medical care and support to Arab refugees 

 fleeing from the ongoing war in Syria.

The nation of Israel recently granted refugee status to 100 Syrian war orphans.

So, where is the western news media coverage of this story?

Over the years, Israel has been forced by the intervention

of primarily the government of the United States of America

to give up "land for peace" to the Palestinians.

 Meanwhile, the so-called, "Palestinian Authority"

 has never been forced to rescind the principal mandate 

in their organization's charter, which calls for

the destruction of the nation of Israel.

Regardless of this, God declares,

 speaking through the prophet, Amos,

 that He will never allow His people

to be removed from their land again.

"And I will bring back the exiles of

My people, Israel, and they shall build

the waste cities and inhabit them;

and they shall plant vineyards and drink

the wine from them; they shall also

make gardens and eat the fruit of them.

And I will plant them upon their land,

and they shall no more be torn up

out of their land, which I have given them,

says the Lord your God."

Amos 9:14-15

May God bless the nation and people of Israel.
