TERROR IN JERUSALEM

A Palestinian father-of-two has been named as the driver of a bulldozer that careered through Jerusalem today, ramming a public bus, running over vehicles, and leaving three people dead.

The title of this blog comes from this video. It comes from a father who heard a kassam drop close to the dorms where his children were. As he jumped on his bike to get there……he kept yelling, “Just not the children, just not the children!!”

The one thing that struck me about this video is that these are ordinary people just trying to make a living, raise their children, and live their lives. They aren’t soldiers. The kids aren’t in school learning songs about “death to muslims.” The children aren’t learning how to grow up and murder others. They are just ordinary people, living in extraordinary times.

The Arab world would have us believe that these people are murderers, killers, thieves. They would have us believe that the land of Israel belongs to the muslims and that they have a “right” to “their ancient homeland.” And yet, anyone who knows anything of the history knows that there ARE NO SUCH PEOPLE AS THE PALESTINIANS! Anyone who bothers to pick up a book would know that the land of Israel has belonged to the Jews for about 3000 years. It would be obvious that, no matter how often the country was captured and overrun, the Jews have always maintained a presence in the land. The so-called “Palestinian People” are a created, political tool in the hands of murderous regimes. These Arab nations that came against Israel after she declared her independence found that they could not beat Israel in a war. They did not, and DO not, understand that there is One G-d, and this One G-d protects Israel. As a result, Yasser Arafat “legitimized” himself, became the “respected” leader of the so-called and, may I add, newly founded “Palestinian” People, and they started a political jihad.

This lie, which has now been spread throughout the world with the help and complicity of the media, has put Israel at odds with the world. The pressure put on Israel is unprecedented. Has a sovreign nation ever had so much pressue put on them by other “allies” of this nation to give up her land AND her national security? It’s unheard of! And Israel’s so-called allies, one of which is the United States, knows that Israel is attacked DAILY. People are hurt and killed by kassam rockets that land in the small towns closest to Gaza…..an area that Israel was pressured into giving up.

But it’s not enough. Although the “friends” of Israel know that Israel is attacked daily, it doesn’t matter. They want more. This small country is now being asked……or should I say pressured…..to give up the West Bank. We have already seen what the “peace-loving Palestinians” did with Gaza. Can we really expect anything different if Olmert bends to the will of the U.S?

We are living in serious times with serious issues. And it would seem that the world has just lost its way. They see murderous regimes that think nothing of killing innocent children and they see Israel…..a nation who has wanted nothing more than to be left alone to live their lives in peace with each other and their neighbors. And the world has chosen these murderous regimes.

My cries echo those of that father in the video…….Not the children, just not the children……..

Remember to pray for the peace and safety of Israel, and for the peace of Jerusalem.

Shalom for now.
