Move Zionist Regime to Europe

More than once Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the president of Iran, has publicly denied the Holocaust: “They have created a myth with the name of ‘Holocaust’ and consider it to be above God, religion, and the prophets.” Addressing an international summit of nearly 50 Muslim heads of state, he said, “Some European countries insist on saying that Hitler killed millions of innocent Jews in furnaces. We don’t accept this claim.”

3-Minute Bread! Matza Make Your Own

By Charleeda Sprinkle

“On the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; seven days you must eat unleavened bread” (Lev. 23:6).

Just about the first thing you think of when you think of Passover or Pesach is matza, the unleavened, cracker-like bread eaten during the eight-day festival. Why do I say eight when the above Scripture says seven? First comes Passover, commemorating the day the lamb was slaughtered and eaten the night before the Israelites left Egypt. The seven-day Feast of Unleavened Bread immediately follows, celebrating the actual Exodus.

Why Recognize Israel?

In an interview aired on Al-Manar TV on the day of Hamas’s victory, Hamas leader Mahmoud AI-Zahar put the organization’s principles forward very clearly, including plans to continue with terror.

True Tzedakah

Any of you who’ve visited Israel (or lived here) know what it’s like to be approached by the insistent, persistent beggars of Jerusalem’s city streets. Day by day, I encounter those who have grown to be familiar faces: the woman who wanders Ben Yehuda crying about her babies who do not have food or diapers; the double amputee who sits in his wheelchair in front of my favorite bagel shop; the gentleman who sleeps by my bus stop, trash-bags full of his belongings heaped awkwardly around him.

Supporting Israel Is In Again

With the rise of Hamas to power in the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the nuclear threat posed by Iran and its renegade president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, supporting Israel is suddenly back in style. Israel usually finds itself isolated among the world community, and Yeshua (Jesus) even said that it would become hated of all nations (Matt. 24:9). Former Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations (UN) Dore Gold even commented recently that being the Israeli ambassador to the UN can at times feel like the loneliest job in the world. But now with terror groups and sovereign states threatening Israel with total destruction, Israel is enjoying support from countries like it hasn’t seen since before the 1967 Six Day War.

Syria And Iran Sign Pact

Syria has agreed to store Iran’s nuclear material, and Iran will grant asylum to Syrian officials implicated in the murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Harriri, according to Jane’s Defense Weekly, a London-based defense magazine. The two countries signed a strategic accord to help each other resist international pressure regarding their weapons programs and misdeeds.

“I Want to Stop Being So Scared Every Moment”

When Tahel Maman, 4, comes home from kindergarten, she crawls under the kitchen table and stays there. When this behavior began last year, her mother, Ofra, thought it was a game. But after some cajoling, it turned out it was the girl’s way of dealing with the security hardships that have blighted her short life—the Kassam rockets on Sderot, the sound of Israel Defense Forces shells fired at the Gaza Strip, and the sonic booms from Israel Air Force planes.

Bush America Is Israel’s Shield

America must remain resolute in its battle against global Islamic terrorism or risk serious consequences––including the demise of the Jewish state––United States President George W. Bush said in a speech to American troops in late October. A perceived U.S. loss in the War on Terror would provide the terrorist the means of victory over Israel and eventually the entire Judeo-Christian West, Bush insisted.

Synagogue worship

One of my most enjoyable experiences in Israel was when I attended a Friday night Shabbat (the Sabbath) service in a Jewish friend’s synagogue. Because religious Jews don’t drive on Shabbat, a synagogue is located within walking distance. Before we left the house to walk to her modern-Orthodox synagogue, I was instructed not to carry a purse nor pen and paper, because writing and carrying are considered work. Questions would have to be asked later, not during the service. And, of course, women are not allowed to wear slacks.

Hula Valley – 500 million birds visit every year

“Even the stork in the heavens knows her appointed times; and the turtledove, the swift, and the swallow observe the time of their coming…” Jeremiah 8:7, NKJV. The Hula Valley is an agricultural region in northern Israel that also represents a rare meeting place for African and European flora and fauna. I went there recently with a group of journalists and photographers at the invitation of the Jewish National Fund (JNF), which manages the forests, parks, and nature reserves of Israel.

Israelis Developing Alternatives to Arab Oil

An Israeli inventor and company are trying to use garbage and leftover olive pulp from olive-oil factories, respectively, to replace oil in providing fuel and electricity to the Jewish state. From one ton of garbage, half a ton of oil or 300 kg (662 lbs.) of gas or 150 kg (331 lbs.) of green coal can be extracted to produce electricity, according to inventor Dr. Sergei Rosenberg.

Rosenberg gained the experience necessary to come up with his invention from working in Russia before he immigrated to Israel. “In Russia, I helped with the building of an artificial reservoir, a number of power stations, and I designed the water system for the nuclear core in Chernobyl.”

The Refreshment of Dew—Tal

“Let my teaching drop as the rain, my speech distill as the dew, as the droplets on the fresh grass and as the showers on the herb.” Deuteronomy 32:2 (NASB).

Often in the Bible, the imagery of rain (geshem) or dew (tal) is used to denote great blessing. To see why, we need to understand the weather that is unique to Israel, and how it colors the Bibles’ imagery. Between the spring rains that end in April, and the fall rains that begin in October, six months go by with clear skies over Israel. By fall, all the grass dies and stored water supplies dwindle. The inhabitants’ very lives depend on the coming of the fall rains, something that is not at all certain in that arid Land. When the rains return again, it is received as a miracle directly from God’s hand.
