PM Netanyahu: Two Pieces of Advice for Presbyterian Church

Click on Picture to Enlarge
Israel's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu was asked about the recent "divestment / boycott" from Israel and Israeli products by the Presbyterian Church.

He responded with two pieces of advice:

1) Fly to Israel...visit the Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.

2) ...Take a bus and tour Libya, Syria, Iraq, etc....but make sure it's an
   armoured bus~and don't say that you are Christians.

It has also been posted that this church is now planning to remove the word "Israel" from its prayer books.

One must ask if they also plan to change the Bible to insure comlete removal of "Israel"? (Don't even ask about banning the medical and technical innovations that Israel has given the world)

The picture above is scan taken from the "Original, 1611 King James Version of the Bible", telling us that nothing (...not one jot or tittle) in the Bible shall be changed. Here are the original words...

For verily I say vnto you, Till heauen and earth passe, one iote or one title, shall in no wise passe from the law, till all be fulfilled...Matthew 5:18 (Original 1611 KJV Bible)

Those who read scripture are familiar with this commandment, and surely, a "church" would be even more aware. The idea that they feel they have the right to erase Israel for any reason smacks of chutzpah!

The church needs to examine the middle east, with "honest" eyes. In every country Christians are being persecuted, and Muslims are being killed by other Muslims. Women have no rights, the press is stifled. Only in tiny Israel are the Christian and Muslim communities free to grow and practice their faith. Only in Israel do they have full voting rights. Only in Israel are women free to choose their occupation and lifestyle.

Calling a divestment or boycott, because Israel defends her people from another genocide, speaks of the willfull blindness of those who do think in this way. Again, in the words taken from the original source...

Heare now this, O foolish people, and without vnderstanding, which haue eyes and see not, which haue eares and heare not...Jeremiah 5:21 (Original 1611 KJV Bible)

Yes, Israel has many problems and makes many mistakes, but to choose to divestment, boycott, and attempting to ban Israel from the world is equivalent to demanding euthanization of all "mini-poodles" because a "bull-mastiff" attacked the kid next door.

If the Presbyterian Church truly wants to change things, and truly desires to better the situation in the Middle East, perhaps they should call for and end to the persecution of Christians in Arab countries? Forget about the Jews~how about your fellow Christians who are being slaughtered on a daily basis?

To really bring about change, one has to believe in God and prayer. One must pray to God and ask for change...But the prayers must be made with complete, deep, faith and obedience. In today's world, people are very good at reciting the words with great theatrical aplomb, but God knows what is really in their hearts. Only prayer can rescue our broken world, but that prayer will only be answered if it is given up humbly and sincerely to the Lord and King of All.

And I will blesse them that blesse thee, and curse him, that curseth thee: and in thee shal all families of the earth be blessed...Genesis 12:3 (Original 1611 KJV Bible)

Want To Boycott Israel?? Some Things You Should Know...

Those calling for boycotts have an agenda~and that is to destroy Israel~to wipe her off the map. One of the most vocal leaders (Omar Barghouti) was born in Qatar (one of the world's wealthiest states) grew up in Egypt and only moved to Ramallah, West Bank, as an adult. At the same time he is demonizing and calling for a Boycott of Israel, Barghouti is studying for his Masters Degree in philosophy at Tel Aviv University (that's in Israel).

The Boycott movement is nothing more than hate and anti-semitism, in the guise of "palestinian" rights. The joke is that under the "PA" governed areas, the Arabs (and they are Arabs) have almost no freedoms, and suffer greater human rights violations than almost anywhere in the world. Boycotting industry in Judea and Samaria will actually deprive PA Arabs of well paying jobs and the rights that go along with them. Here is just one example:

The Palestinians working at SodaStream receive full social and health services in accordance with Israeli law. This includes pension contributions and insurance. Labor law in Israel requires an employer to pay wages and contributions four times higher than those required by the Palestinian Authority. In addition, SodaStream also provides benefits that include daily hot meals, clothing, transportation and overtime pay up to 200% as required by Israeli law. ***See 2nd Video Below

Nobody ever questions why more people under the authority of the PA want to obtain Israeli citizenship than those who want to stay in the PA areas. That's because in Israel, they have better treatment, lives, jobs, housing and rights than in in other Arab country~this is doubly true for women or any who are free thinkers.

Check the facts and you will find out that Jews and Christians are being driven out of every Arab (Muslim) country. Churches, Synagogues (or any other religion than Islam) are forbidden and persecuted. Once majority Christian areas are now almost totally cleansed, either by eviction through persecution, or forceful conversions.

So, next time you see a brilliant advertisement and information stand on the horrors of Israel, make sure you think twice before falling for the "PA" PR.

Think Carefully About What The BDS Movement Wants You To Give Up...

Shameful Behaviour From Canada

Ahava Advertisement
Once again people who choose not to deal with facts are asking for a boycott of Israeli products. Arutz 7 has this report on a pro-Arab group in Canada that has called for a boycott of the popular Ahava Dead Sea products. The group who called for the boycott is Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME), a non-profit and secular organization which claims to bring together “men and women of all backgrounds who labor to see justice and peace take root again in the Middle East,” as its website states. The group’s identified mission is “to empower decision-makers to view all sides with fairness and to promote the equitable and sustainable development of the region.”  Their empowerment efforts appear to be primarily aimed at the de-legitimization of Israel.

Here is another take on their "labor to see justice and peace take root" taken from Eye on a Crazy Planet--I urge you to read the entire article, look at the videos they posted and then consider the biased influence this anti-Israel group has. Here is an excerpt:

Does it seem that whenever a story about Israel gets printed in a major publication, a group of the same online posters combined with usual suspect letters-to-the-editor writers get a control message to go into action and use a familiar litany of spurious talking points to malign the middle east's only democracy?

Ever wonder why they all sound so similar? There's a reason for that. The so-called "Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East," (CJPME) an anti-Israel group whose board includes Canadians Osama Abu-Shihab and Louay Jabry, wants you to be on stand-by to join their team of "media responders". Your job is to badmouth Israel and you don't even have to have a command of the facts that you're going to claim to find objectionable.

Can't think of what to write, or what to say? Incapable of thinking for yourself? No problem!  The CJPME will do that for you. In the words of their own promotional videos below, their Media Centre will allow you to " respond effectively without even having to locate a newspaper or magazine." Talk about convenient! Any semi-literate half-wit could participate (and from the looks of things, quite a few do).

The Dead Sea
One of the CJPME claims is that  “Israel’s current colonial endeavors in the West Bank are in violation of the 1993 Oslo Accords.”  New Flash--Ahava was established in 1988, five years before Oslo.

Other claims that Israel is causing the security problems in the middle-east are merely a continuation of the lies being spun by the arab world. Muslims have been trying to eradicate the Jews since Mo had his first seizure around 620CE. For the past 90 years Israel has tried to make peace and every time war has broken out and  when the Jews fight back (and win) they are accused of "ethnic cleansing". You should know that the only "Refugee Camps" exist in Arab countries "outside of Israel". That is because Israel closed all the camps within its borders giving the people citizenship! I leave you with this quote from Mahmoud Abbas himself: "I will never allow a single Israeli to live among us on Palestinian land,”  I guess that is what CJPME would call a concession... 
Oh, by the way...Do Purchase Ahava Products--they are great!
