The Bible describes the devil as the originator of sin. We all know he stays very busy. He appears to have a large mental capacity and he can be anywhere in the blink of an eye. Yet the devil is not omniscient nor is he omnipresent, so he requires underlings to do his bidding; Satan’s little helper.

Although Satan has a host of demonic angels throughout the world, there is one area to which the devil finds himself mostly restricted. Satan and company are spiritual beings, which makes them incapable of acting in this physical realm. Satan’s little helper must be of flesh and bone. so this is where the need for human organizations comes in. In the nations where the devil has dictators in command, he can use them directly to control those countries. In the “free world,” Satan has found the liberal media makes for an effective tool for guiding and controlling society.

The liberal media is not only the devil’s best device for corrupting human society; it’s his most diabolical device. The finger of blame is rarely ever pointed at the liberal media for society’s ills. This is because the press is in charge of fixing the blame. Letting the liberal media decide if it’s partly to blame for our country’s moral decline is like putting tobacco companies in charge of finding out what causes lung cancer.

If you were to ask Christians whom they believe to be the leading groups conspiring to bring about the one world government, many would cite groups like the Illuminati or the Trilateral Commission. Conspiracy theories sell a large number of books, and many of these organizations are pro-world government, but I don’t foresee conspiracy groups ever gaining the clout to achieve this task. I honestly believe conspiracy theories just draw our attention away from the primary forces that are laboring to achieve the New World Order.

The liberal media will be a substantial player in end-time events. When the Antichrist finally does come to power, the liberal media will be tripping over itself to report his every word. The values that the press currently portrays will perfectly match the values of the forthcoming Antichrist. It will be love at first sight.

The liberal media’s final act will be to broadcast the hatred of the Jews and nonconforming Christians. Even today, these two groups are constantly reported about a negative bias. As we draw closer to the tribulation, the negative media coverage will only increase.

When Jesus Christ returns to earth, He’ll cast the liberal media into the pit of darkness. In hell, members of the media won’t be harassed by us Christians, so they’ll have the freedom to follow whatever news stories they choose. They will be able to cover topics like, “Why is hell so hot?” or “Does a snowball really stand a chance down here?” I’m sure the liberal media, at that time, will conclude that hell is a racist and homophobic place, and the burning sulfur will certainly be noted as destructive to hell’s environment.

After watching the liberal media in action over the years, I’ve detected several of the tricks of the trade used by the press. Following are some of its more popular tactics:

The Ranking The News
Without a doubt, the craftiest device the liberal media has at its disposal is the ability to manipulate public opinion by judging the value and importance of news. Every single day millions of events transpire in the world, and the press determines which news items are worthy of major coverage and which ones are not. The liberal media immediately gives top national billing to attacks on abortion clinics, yet leaves attacks on Christian churches to coverage by the local guys.

Picking and Choosing
In a step beyond ranking the news, the liberal media has sole authority to pick and choose which news stories receive press coverage. By selecting stories that are sympathetic to its line of thinking, the liberal media can help determine the direction this country will be heading.

Preferential Treatment
The liberal media has its friends and its enemies. Anyone who shares its liberal slant is considered to be a comrade, and anyone in the conservative camp is regarded as a foe. The best example of preferential treatment I can think of is the press’ treatment of two high-profile religious leaders: Jesse Jackson and Franklin Graham. The left-leaning Jackson has repeatedly proven himself to be a man of grievous moral shortcomings. The godless press simply turns a blind eye to Jackson’s transgressions; it even quickly set aside a sex scandal with a former secretary. Knowing how the press attacks Franklin Graham any chance it gets, there is obviously a huge level of partiality on the part of the press.

Negative Spotlighting
When something occurs that threatens established liberal dogma, the media reports on this activity so they can alert counterparts in the various liberal activist groups. (The same warnings are not given for events that threaten conservative thinking.)

The Friendly Fool
The best turn of events the liberal media can hope for is when someone from the opposition does something it can use. If a liberal-minded person like the Unabomber commits a deadly act, the press can’t really do anything with his act of terrorism that would be positive. Attacking him would mean attacking its own beliefs. When someone like Timothy McVeigh blows up a federal office building, the liberal media has the opportunity to turn that action into a high holy day for the pro big government and gun control forces.

The Team Player Ploy
Because everyone wants to be part of the establishment, the elite press has been able to win over enemies by encouraging them to be team players. Through the use of good and bad press coverage, even the hardest-to-reach people can be altered to a more liberal way of thinking. For example, when federal judges come to Washington, they’re not subject to stand for reelection. These judges are appointed for life. The press, by using its carrot-and-stick approach, has been able to transform Republican-nominated judges into “respectable” liberal judges. This has happened several times.

The Name Game
This is when the press assigns names to groups in order to place a pro-liberal spin on them. The abortion issue is a good example. People who are in favor of abortion are called “pro-choice,” a phrase that transforms the act from the killing of the unborn to a rights issue. The pro-life folks are referred to as “anti-abortion.” “Anti-” is a negative prefix meaning “against.” Because most people would wish be on the positive side of an issue, the negative title puts one at a disadvantage. Here are some more examples of terminology used by the liberal media to put its agenda into a more positive light: gay rights, new morality, free speech (talking about porn), independent mothers, and judicial activism.

Rewriting History
The boldest of the liberal media’s tricks is the brazen rewriting of history. It’s a process that goes on at a constant pace. If history does not support liberalism, then liberals act to change history. The Reagan years are frequently targeted by the revisionist liberal media.

Comedy
Few people realize how strongly the monologues of NBC’s “The Tonight Show” and CBS’s “Late Show,” along with skits from “Saturday Night Live,” influence public opinion. In late 1992, I remember the pounding George Bush received from all the late-night jokes that pointed to a weak economy. After the election, it turned out that the economy was booming at a 4 percent annual growth rate. This news was too late to help Bush who, as we all know, lost the election. During President Obama’s second-term election, the growth rate was 2 percent. Did we hear any jokes about how bad the economy was? No, of course not.

The devil hates the Jewish people with a passion. The Jews are the ones who gave mankind the Bible and the Savior, Jesus Christ. It should come as no surprise that nations who are demonically controlled would share in the devil’s hatred of Israel. On this page, I’ve listed a number of popular myths about Israel, and I’ve also provided facts to counter those lies.

MYTH:
“The land of Israel is really the land of Palestine.”

FACT:
The term “Palestine” is believed to be derived from the Philistines, an Aegean people who, in the 12th Century BC, settled along the Mediterranean coastal plain of what is now Israel and the Gaza Strip. In the second century AD, after crushing the last Jewish revolt, the Romans first applied the name Palaestinato Judea (the southern portion of what is now called the West Bank) in an attempt to minimize Jewish identification with the land of Israel. The Arabic word Filastin is derived from Latin. There is no language known as Palestinian. There is no distinct Palestinian culture. There has never been a land known as Palestine governed by Palestinians. Palestinians are Arabs, indistinguishable from Jordanians (another recent invention), Syrians, Lebanese, Iraqis, etc.

MYTH:
“The Jews have no historic claim to Israel.”

FACT:
Only one group of people have continuously lived in Israel for the past 3,700 years – the Jews. Jerusalem, in particular, has had a Jewish majority since the 1840s, 40 years prior to the beginnings of Zionism. Seventy-five percent of the land in east Jerusalem, which the press calls “historically Arab east Jerusalem,” has been owned by Jews since 1947. The nations that inhabited the land prior to the Jews are no longer in existence, for they have been absorbed into various other peoples throughout the millennia. The Arabs of Israel only came to the land in 632 with the Muslim invasion.

MYTH:
“The creation of the state of Israel in 1948 changed political and border arrangements between independent states that had existed for centuries.”

FACT:
The boundaries of most Middle East countries were arbitrarily fixed by the Western powers after Turkey was defeated in World War I and the French and British mandates were set up. The areas allotted to Israel under the UN Partition Plan had all been under the control of the Ottomans, who had ruled Palestine from 1517 until 1917. When Turkey was defeated in World War I, the French took over the area now known as Lebanon and Syria. The British assumed control of Palestine and Iraq. In 1926, the borders were redrawn and Lebanon was separated from Syria. Britain installed the Emir Faisal, who had been deposed by the French in Syria, as ruler of the new kingdom of Iraq. In 1922, the British created the emirate of Transjordan, which incorporated all of Palestine east of the Jordan River. This was done so that the Emir Abdullah, whose family had been defeated in tribal warfare in the Arabian peninsula, would have a kingdom to rule. None of the countries that border Israel became independent until this century. Many other Arab nations became independent after Israel.

MYTH:
“Israel violates the human rights of the Palestinian Arabs.”

FACT:
The facts are different. Israel granted full citizenship to all of the Palestinian Arabs who fell within its borders after the War of Independence. Arabic is an official language in Israel. Israel remains to this day one of the few countries in the Middle East where Arabs can legitimately vote–and it is the only one where women can vote.

MYTH:
“The West Bank is part of Jordan.”

FACT:
The West Bank was never legally part of Jordan. Under the UN’s 1947 Partition Plan–which the Jews accepted and the Arabs rejected–it was to have been part of an independent Arab state in western Palestine. But the Jordanian army invaded and occupied it during the 1948 war. In 1950, Jordan annexed the West Bank. Only two governments–Great Britain and Pakistan–formally recognized the Jordanian takeover. The rest of the world, including the United States, never did. During the 1950-1967 period of its occupation, Jordan permitted terrorists to launch raids into Israel. Amman lost the West Bank after the Jordanian army entered the 1967 war.

MYTH:
“Jerusalem is Islam’s third most holy city.”

FACT:
Muslims try to connect Jerusalem to Islam by using a vague passage in the Koran, the seventeenth Sura, entitled “The Night Journey.” It relates that in a dream or a vision, Mohammed was carried by night “from the sacred temple to the temple that is most remote, whose precinct we have blessed, that we might show him our signs. …” In the seventh century, some Muslims identified the two temples mentioned in this verse as being in Mecca and Jerusalem. And that’s as close as Islam’s connection with Jerusalem gets–myth, fantasy, wishful thinking. Meanwhile, Jews can trace their roots in Jerusalem back to the days of Abraham.

MYTH:
“The Temple Mount has always been a Muslim holy place and Judaism has no connection to the site.”

FACT:
The area of Solomon’s Stables is believed to date as far back as the construction of Solomon’s Temple. According to Josephus, it was in existence and was used as a place of refuge by the Jews at the time of the conquest of Jerusalem by Titus in the year 70 A.D. More authoritatively, the Koran–the holy book of Islam–describes Solomon’s construction of the First Temple (34:13) and recounts the destruction of the First and Second Temples (17:7). The Jewish connection to the Temple Mount dates back more than 3,000 years and is rooted in tradition and history. When Abraham bound his son, Isaac, upon an altar as a sacrifice to God, he did so atop Mount Moriah, today’s Temple Mount.

MYTH:
“Under Israeli rule, religious freedom has been curbed in Jerusalem.”

FACT:
After the 1967 war, Israel abolished all the discriminatory laws promulgated by Jordan and adopted its own tough standard for safeguarding access to religious shrines. “Whoever does anything that is likely to violate the freedom of access of the members of the various religions to the places sacred to them,” Israeli law stipulates, “is liable to imprisonment for a term of five years.” Israel also entrusted administration of the holy places to their respective religious authorities. Thus, for example, the Muslim Waqf has responsibility for the mosques on the Temple Mount.

MYTH:
“The Arab states have had to keep pace with an Israeli-led arms race.”

FACT:
In most cases, the reverse has been true. Egypt received the Soviet IL-28 bomber in 1955. It was not until 1958 that France provided Israel with a squadron of comparable Sud Vautour twin-jet, tactical bombers. In 1957, Egypt obtained MiG-17 fighter planes. Israel received the comparable Super Mystere in 1959. Egypt had submarines in 1957, Israel in 1959. After the Egyptians obtained the MiG-21, the Israelis ordered the Dassault Mirage III supersonic interceptor and fighter-bomber. Egypt received ground-to-air missiles–the SA-2–two years before Israel obtained HAWK missiles from the United States. Later, Washington reluctantly agreed to sell Israel Patton tanks.

MYTH:
“Israel’s destruction of Iraqi nuclear facilities was an unjust act.”

FACT:
Back in June 1981, after the Israelis bombed the plant at Osirak, the UN Security Council unanimously condemned Israel. Washington ostentatiously held up its delivery of armaments to Israel. A decade later, however, the strike looks awfully good. Had Saddam Hussein been armed with nuclear weapons during the war with Iran, much of Tehran would now be obliterated and large sections of Iran annexed to Iraq. More: Iraqi forces might have rolled straight from Kuwait into Saudi Arabia, long before American forces could have arrived. Today, Saddam could already control five oil-rich countries and thereby over half of the world’s oil reserves. Economic disaster would be one result; and American troops would have no good place to land.

MYTH:
“Israel has been an expansionist state since its creation.”

FACT:
Israel’s boundaries were determined by the United Nations when it adopted the partition resolution in 1947. In a series of defensive wars, Israel captured additional territory. On numerous occasions, Israel has withdrawn from these areas. As part of the 1974 disengagement agreement, Israel returned territories captured in the 1967 and 1973 wars to Syria. Under the terms of the 1979, Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty, Israel withdrew from the Sinai peninsula for the third time. It had already withdrawn from large parts of the desert area it captured in its War of Independence. After capturing the entire Sinai in the 1956 Suez conflict, Israel relinquished the peninsula to Egypt a year later. In September 1983, Israel withdrew from large areas of Lebanon to positions south of the Awali River. In 1985, it completed its withdrawal from Lebanon, except for a narrow security zone just north of the Israeli border. That too was abandoned, unilaterally, in 2000. After signing peace agreements with the Palestinians and a treaty with Jordan, Israel agreed to withdraw from most of the territory in the West Bank captured from Jordan in 1967. A small area was returned to Jordan and the rest was ceded to the Palestinian Authority. The agreement with the Palestinians also involved Israel’s withdrawal, in 1994, from most of the Gaza Strip, which had been captured from Egypt in 1973.

MYTH:
“Israel is the aggressor in the current conflict.”

FACTS:
One: The Palestinians are the aggressors; they started the conflict, and they purposely drive it forward with fresh killing on an almost-daily basis.

Two: The Palestinians regard this second intifada not as a sporadically violent protest movement, but as a war, with the clear strategic aim of forcing a scared and emotionally exhausted Israel to surrender on terms that would threaten Israel’s viability.

Three: As a tactic in this strategy, the Palestinians will not fight Israeli forces directly but instead have concentrated their efforts on murdering Israeli civilians. The greater the number, the more pathetically vulnerable the victims–disco-goers, women and children in a pizza restaurant–the better.

Four: Israel has acted defensively in this conflict; and while Israeli forces accidentally killed Palestinian civilians, their planned lethal attacks have all been aimed only at Palestinian military and terror-group leaders.
