Warnock, Warnock, Who’s There?

Barack Obama’s warm relationship with Palestinians is perhaps not so well-known, but it is there. His early life influences, from men like Frank Marshall Davis, shaped who he is—a Marxist.

As a “community organizer in Chicago, Obama was close to various Palestinian activists. This and other things informed his view of Jews and Israel. Upon becoming president, he worked hard to destabilize further the Middle East and his 2009 speech in Cairo was shocking in its reaching-out to Muslim radicals, particularly the Muslim Brotherhood.

Ruthie Blum’s terrific book, To Hell in a Handbasket, outlines Obama’s treachery, beginning with his help in the ouster of Egyptian strongman Hosni Mubarak. No one is arguing that Mubarak (who took over for the slain Anwar Sadat in 1982) was a benevolent peacenik. But he was infinitely better than the beast that followed him for a short time, Brotherhood  member Muhammad Morsi. Note what Blum wrote about Obama’s involvement:

“Since the US president had contributed to this turn of events, he was pleased, finally, to be able to be able to say something positive about the goings-on in Egypt. For the duration of the nearly three weeks of demonstrations that had been taking place at Tahrir Square, his administration had been sending harsh messages to Mubarak, warning him not to quell the rebellion, and threatening to cut off aid if he used force or other measures to do so.”

Importantly, Obama had also been influenced by religious radicals like Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the blasphemous leftist that pastored a United Church of Christ congregation where the Obamas attended for years.

Which brings us to Georgia Senator (Rev.) Raphael Warnock, now locked in a tight race with Hershel Walker. Among Warnock’s radical leftist views, he said this in a sermon:

“Black lives matter, Palestinian lives matter! We need a Pentecostal moment.”

There you have it. For years in Washington, Democrat lawmakers worked behind the scenes to undermine Israel. Now they are doing it out in the open, including in churches!

Note, too, that Dems always decry Republicans that mention politics from the pulpit. In fact, that criticism has achieved its goal of silencing many evangelical pastors.

Dem candidates like Stacey Abrams and Warnock though use churches as props to spew their political hate.

If you are a voter in Georgia, your vote in a few days might be the difference between a radical, Israel-hating activist continuing in his destructive role in the Senate, or a voice of reason.

Israel has many, many enemies. Many of them are in our midst.

Friendly Enemies

It’s fascinating noting the efforts Israel’s historical enemies are taking to fight terrorism in and around Israel. I’m talking about Russia and Egypt. This past week those operations came to light, particularly in the fight against ISIS, which has regrouped since the rogue regime in Washington took power two years ago.

In the Sinai, Egyptian troops engaged with ISIS terrorists near the Rafah Beach section, killing a total of four terrorists on October 5 and October 14. On the 16^th, a joint operation between Egyptian army and the Sinai Tribal Union killed two more ISIS demons, one of whom was wearing explosives.

A day later, in Syria, an imam from the village of Al-Hajna was shot and killed by rival terrorists. There has been an intense amount of terror activity in Syria, particularly near Damascus, in the last two weeks. Several days ago, an IED crippled a bus carrying Syrian soldiers, 19 of whom were killed. 

According to the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center:

“General Oleg Egorov, deputy head of the Russian Coordination Center in Syria, announced that about 100 ISIS operatives had been killed in Russian airstrikes on October 16, 2022, against a training camp and a command post of ISIS in northwestern Syria. According to General Egorov, the airstrikes destroyed a command post, ammunition depots, weapons, the headquarters in the camp, as well as 15 vehicles equipped with machine guns (TASS, October 17, 2022). So far, the report has not been confirmed by any local source. 

“That same day, airstrikes were also carried out against positions of the Suqur al-Sham faction, which is affiliated with the rebel organizations, north of the village of Qataa, northwest of Aleppo. Three faction operatives were killed and nine others were wounded (Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, October 17, 2022). According to local sources, Russian fighter jets carried out the attack after forces of HTS, the leading organization among the rebels in the Idlib region, had entered the Afrin region, about 40 km northwest of Aleppo.”

Just after this, Russian fighter jets attacked a cluster of terrorists at Jassem, killing 20 of them. Of those, four had been involved in the bus attack.

All this activity shows clearly that the scourge of terror doesn’t impact only Israel in the region, and that other governments are committed to rooting-out terrorism, if only because it impedes and impacts their own interests. It does serve to bolster Israel’s security, though.

She isn’t fighting alone.
