What will be presented in this article are news repors that
Joseph's
Tomb has been burned by the PLO. Next, I will give a Biblical

restoration of both houses of Israel (Ezekiel 37:15-28)
First, the news reports ....

Barak Evacuates Military Outpos
By JAMIE TARABAY, Associated Press Writer
NABLUS, West Bank (AP) - Israel on Saturday pulled its soldiers
out of
JOSEPH'S TOMB, a tiny enclave that had come under steady fire
from
Palestinian gunmen for the past week. Within hours, Palestinian
civilians -some armed - STORMED THE SITE, SETTING FIRES and
trashing
Hebrew texts and equipment left behind by the army.
In a sign that the violence was spreading, Israeli troops opened
fire
on hundreds of rock-throwing Lebanese protesters at the
Israel-Lebanon border, killing one demonstrator and wounding 14,
Lebanese officials said.
Soon after, Lebanese guerrillas fired rockets on Israeli
positions at
another part of the border. Lebanese security officials said
three
Israeli soldiers had been captured. The Israeli army had no
immediate
comment.
It was the bloodiest confrontation along the border since Israel
ended its 18-year occupation of south Lebanon in May.=20
The pre-dawn evacuation of the tomb enclave in Nablus, ordered by
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, was the first time Israel
relinquished territory as a direct result of Palestinian
violence.
One Israeli soldier was shot and wounded during the
evacuation.
``We consider this a big victory,'' said Ali Farraj, a local
Palestinian leader. ``It cost us a lot of blood, and we feel
proud of
this victory.''
Six Palestinians and an Israeli border policeman have been killed
in
a week of daily gun battles at the site.
A top BARAK ADVISER said that JOSEPH'S TOMB was simply NOT WORTH
HOLDING any longer, and had become a liability.
``The question is, what interest did we ever have there,'' said
Deputy
Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh. ``There was never a political or
military or settlement justification to stay in Joseph's Tomb.
Over
the years, the army has protected a small, marginal group that
wanted
to use this site as a foothold for settlement in Nablus, that is
the
honest truth.''
COMMENT FROM EDDIE:
[The leaders in Israel CARE NOT about JOSEPH'S BONES !!!!!]
Still, Barak government ministers were clearly furious with
Arafat for
failing to protect the site.
``You can't have war and peace at the same time,'' said Regional
Planning Minister Shimon Peres, a former prime minister who
helped
launch the peace process seven years ago. ``If he wants war, it's
another ball game. if he wants peace, he has to reach
conclusions.''
An Israeli border policeman bled to death inside the compound
last
weekend, after Palestinian gunmen barred Israeli medics from
reaching
the compound for several hours.
Violence across the West Bank and Gaza Strip, sparked by a visit
by
hard-line opposition leader Ariel Sharon to a Jerusalem shrine
holy to
Muslims and Jews, has so far claimed 80 lives, most Palestinian.
Two
Palestinians died early Saturday of injuries sustained in clashes
with
Israeli soldiers on Friday.
In announcing the tomb evacuation, the army said Palestinian
authorities promised to protect the site, which is also home to a
Jewish seminary where about 30 students studied during the day.
The
students have been barred from the site since gun battles
began last
weekend.
In the tomb area, Palestinian leaders issued calls over
megaphones
Saturday, urging the civilians to leave. They went unheeded.
Giggling children emerged from the site wearing hats and flak
jackets
that had been left behind. One group set fire to one of the
shacks in the
compound and in the domed tomb. Palestinian firefighters doused
the
flames. PALESTINIAN teen-agers CLIMBED atop the TOMB and
HIT It with
HAMMERS.
Others ripped apart Hebrew texts. It was unclear if the books
were holy
writings, but the army acknowledged that the troops had left some
sacred Hebrew texts behind.
Some Jews believe the site is the tomb of the biblical patriarch,
although most archaeologists ridicule that claim. Some Israelis
have denounced
Joseph's Tomb as a superfluous provocation.
The trashing of the compound was likely to contribute to Barak's
increasing political isolation, and make it harder for him to
negotiate a peace deal.
Barak was weakened politically by far-reaching proposals he made
to
Palestinians at the U.S.-sponsored talks at Camp David, in July.
``This is an embarrassing capitulation of the prime minister,''
said
Danny Naveh, a legislator with the opposition Likud party. ``It
is a surrender to Palestinian violence, and the state of Israel will
pay a
heavy price for it.''
Clashes continued Saturday. In Hebron, the site of another tiny
Jewish
enclave, troops faced down stone-throwers with rubber bullets,
injuring
five.
The withdrawal could help create the conditions that would allow
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat to order an end to the violence.
In
its statement, the army said ``both sides are committed to
save
lives and reduce tensions'' now that the evacuation has been
undertaken.
In Madrid, where he was attending a conference, Arafat described
the
evacuation as ''``a good step.''
A Palestinian spokeswoman said the hope was that the evacuation
signaled a new Israeli approach - one that could lead to the
resumption of peace talks.
``I think that this should be a first step in pulling out all the
Israeli outposts and hopefully all settlements in order not to maintain a situation of constant violence and volatility,'' Hanan
Ashrawi told CNN.

Palestinian mob
torches Joseph's tomb after IDF pullout

The Israel Defense Forces evacuated its men from
Joseph's tomb in Nablus on Saturday following a pre-arranged
agreement with Palestinian security forces. Despite the
agreement,
the Palestinian Authority forces did not prevent thousands of
Palestinian demonstrators from storming the site, following the
IDF
evacuation, and setting it on fire.
"We thought we had partners. It seems that they do not exist," said Brigadier General Benny Gantz,
commander of IDF
forces in the West Bank, on Saturday, following the destruction
of
Joseph's tomb. The site was one of the main battlegrounds in the
violence which erupted in the area 10 days ago, and posed
particular
tactical problems for IDF commanders whose men were virtually
isolated. Last week, a Border Guard, Madhet Yosef, bled to death
when
Palestinian demonstrators and security forces did not allow the
IDF
to evacuate him from Joseph's Tomb.
The decision to evacuate the site was taken on Friday
night in a meeting between Prime Minister Ehud Barak, Chief of
Staff
Shaul Mofaz, and the head of the Shin Bet internal security
service,
Avi Dichter. The two top defense officials strongly recommended
that the
13-man force be pulled out from the area.
IDF sources said that the evacuation was made
following explicit commitments by the Palestinian Authority
security
forces to safeguard the integrity of the holy site. According to
the
same sources, Israel had agreed to a temporary withdrawal from
the
site in order to avoid further escalation of the violence there.
Following the issuing of the orders, a small group of
vehicles entered Nablus in the early morning hours and removed
the
troops and all the holy articles from the site. While it was
agreed
with the Palestinians that security would be provided for the
force,
on its way from Nablus to the settlement of Elon Moreh, the IDF
vehicles came under fire and a Border Guard was injured.
After the withdrawal, IDF spotters on the nearby
hills witnessed the storming of the site by thousands of
Palestinians, who looted it and set it on fire. "This was
barbaric
behavior," some IDF officers said. Brigadier Gantz was
emphatic that
"we did not withdraw from Joseph's tomb because of military
pressure,
but because those were our orders, following an agreement. The
agreement was for us to remove our troops so that the
Palestinians
could calm the situation." The senior officer added that
"we never
saw our mission as killing as many [Palestinians] as possible or
cause as much harm as possible. We tried to use judgment,
professionalism and avoid injuries. That is how we operated
throughout last week. [The relatively] low casualty rate among
our
forces does not reflect the huge number of incidents,
unprecedented
in intensity."
Gantz said that he believes that the situation will
only get worse. "The attack on a holy site and on religious
values is
an enormous escalation. This is a situation which can create
significant escalation on the ground," he added.
IDF officers said that the Palestinian behavior at
Joseph's Tomb has caused significant damage to their claim that
they
can safeguard religious sites, particularly those important to
Jews.
The Shin Bet and the IDF are now gravely concerned that Jewish
settlers will react violently to the desecration of Joseph's
tomb.
There is a large concentration of extreme right-wingers in the
area,
some of whom were members of the yeshiva which was situated at
Joseph's tomb.

On a news report early, they said that the Israeli Army was
taking out
of Joseph Tomb as much of the religious artifacts as possible and
then
abandoning the Tomb complex. The past report said that the
Palestinians have taken over, vandalized and are burning the
facility.
There was fighting yesterday at the gate to Elon Moreh, this will
be
The PA's next objective as Elon Moreh represents the first of all
the
settlements in Samaria.
The Arab nations are now going to meet and declare that this is
no
longer a Palestinian problem but must be solved by the
united forces
of the Arab nations.

Subject: special prayer request
NOTE: Ben Yosef lives in the land of Israel
Shalom JOES and fence-sitters (JOES-in process),
The Tomb of Joseph and Od Yosef Chai, (Joseph Still Lives), the
yeshiva there, were handed over early this morning to the
Palestinian
Authority and within a few hours Jibril demonstrators, (who were
not
resisted by the PA who had promised to safeguard the holy sites),
had
broken inside the tomb and were desecrating it, by URINATING on
it,
damaging it and doing other unspeakable acts of DESECRATION.
Yesterday, the Palestinian Authority was given a free reign on
the
Temple Mount. I thought I would never live to see such a day. The
Palestinian flag being waved above the Kotel (Western Wall) by
Arab
youths, who showered the Kotel with hundreds of rocks, including
sharp
shards from slabs of marble the Moslem women were breaking and
handing
to their children.
The Kotel had to be evacuated and would-be Orthodox worshippers
could
only watch at a distance behind police barricades while those who
show
their behinds to the Holy Place while they bow to Mecca were
given
their freedom to exercise their "Day of Rage." The
Israeli police were
ordered by Barak away from the Mount so as not to
"provoke" them to
violence and only Palestinian Authority police supervised the
goings-on above. The "Palestinians" got their way, yet
they STILL
showered the Kotel with rocks and insults. It went on for
about an
hour after the Moslem prayers had ended. Then the Palestinian
Authority police asked the youths to come down from their
insulting
perches. The area was cleared of rocks. The barricades were
removed
and worshippers were allowed back to the Wall.
PLEASE be in prayer for me tonight
and tomorrow. At 10 a.m. tomorrow I have a meeting with an
important
Likud Party member. I am going to talk to him about helping me to
get
a PROXY presence (through another Likud member in the Knesset) in
the
Knesset to represent the interests of the House of Joseph in the
wake
of the violence in the territories of Joseph, the inheritances of
Joseph outside the territories (Israel proper) by Israeli Arabs
and
the desecration of the tomb of Joseph.
Over the phone, he was more than intrigued and interested and
welcomed
the meeting. He too is outraged.
Details later as things materialize.
But please, if there is a spark of JOE anywhere in you, be in
prayer.
Shalom & Hashem's guidance and direction.

BIBLICAL COMMENTARY FROM EDDIE
PENALTY FOR NOT RESPECTING THE SHABBAT
It is NOT surprising that just WEEKS after Ehud
Barak said that he
was going to move forward with his "secular revolution"
which included
allowing shopping and transportation on the Shabbath and trying
to
make it possible to make available PIG MEAT for consumption in
various places in Israel (as reported via Arutz-7 news from
Israel
which was sent to the newsgroup) that a WAR / HOSTILITIES broke
out
in Israel with the enemies of the state.
In Jeremiah 17:17-29, HaShem gave warning about what
would happen
if the Sabbath was not obeyed and the blessing that He would give
unto His people for keeping the Sabbath.
KJV Jeremiah 17:19 Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in
the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah
come
in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of
Jerusalem;
20 And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of
Judah,
and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter
in by
these gates: 21 Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and
BEAR NO BURDEN on the SABBATH DAY, nor bring it in by the gates
of
Jerusalem; 22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on
the
sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but HALLOW YE
THE SABBATH day, as I commanded your fathers. 23 But THEY OBEYED
NOT,
neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they
might not hear, nor
receive instruction. 24 And it shall come to pass, IF YE
DILIGENTLY HEARKEN UNTO ME, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden
through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but HALLOW THE
SABBATH DAY, to do no work therein; 25 THEN shall there enter
into
the gates of this city kings and princes SITTING UPON THE THRONE
OF
DAVID, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes,
the
men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city
shall
remain for ever. 26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah,
and
from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin,
and
from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south,
bringing
burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense,
and
bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the LORD. 27 But
IF ye will
NOT HEARKEN unto me to HALLOW THE SABBATH DAY, and not to bear a
burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath
day;
then will I KINDLE A FIRE in the gates thereof, and it shall
devour
the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched."
So, Ehud Barak doesn't want the country of Israel to hallow the
sabbath and weeks later the PLO "kindles a fire" in the
land burning
trees and forests and burning JOSEPH'S TOMB.
THE BONES OF JOSEPH
Obviously, the bones of Joseph would be buried
in Joseph's tomb.
What is the significance to the bones of Joseph and what is
PROPHETIC
of the PLO burning the tomb of Joseph?
The Bible says that our SPIRITUAL WARFARE is NOT
with FLESH AND
BLOOD but with forces in the kingdom of darkness (HaSatan).
In
Ephesians 6:12 it is written:
JV Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high
places.
The ROOT of the conflict taking place in
the Middle East is a
conflict between the kingdom of darkness (HaSatan who is using
the
PLO and the Arab world as his pawns) against the God of Israel
and
His people. The Bible says that that which happens in the NATURAL
is
a type and picture of what is happening in the SPIRIT.
In 1 Corinthians 15:46 it is written:
KJV 1 Corinthians 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is
spiritual,
but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
The WAR in the heavenlies which is being
played out in the
natural world is a controversy that the kingdom of darkness has
against the God of Israel regarding the covenant that HaShem
made with Abraham and the restoration of both houses of Israel
(the
bones of Joseph ... Ezekiel 37:15-28). The Bible also calls
this the
controversy of Zion ((Isaiah 34:8).
To show the distaste that the kingdom of
darkness
(HaSatan) has for the covenant that HaShem made with Abraham,
HaSatan
is stirring up the nations of the world to pressure Israel to
give
the PLO a state in the West Bank (which is the SAME land called
in
the Bible the "mountains of Israel" (Ezekiel 37:15-22)
which is
Biblically deeded to BOTH houses of Israel (the house of Joseph /
Ephraim and the house of Judah). In addition, the kingdom of
darkness
is stirring the nations of the world to pressure Israel into
making
Jerusalem an international city to be the eventual worldwide
capital
of one-world government (Daniel 2, Daniel 7 and Revelation 13).
In
doing this, the kingdom of darkness is trying to prevent King
Messiah
from ruling and reigning and teaching the Torah to the
nations from
Jerusalem (Isaiah 2:2-4) when HE (King Messiah) after the
TORAH goes
forth from Jerusalem will bring peace to the world by making the
nations "beat their swords into plowshares and their
spears into
pruninghooks".
The BONES OF JOSEPH is CENTRAL in
this end-time
conflict because the BONES OF JOSEPH has a link to the HISTORICAL
REDEMPTION from EGYPT and the FUTURE REDEMPTION of BOTH house of
Israel (Ezekiel 37:15-28)
REMEMBER THE BONES OF
JOSEPH
Before Joseph died, he gave instruction to the
children of Israel
to REMEMBER HIS BONES when HaShem redeems them from Egypt. In
Genesis
50:24-26 it is written:
JV Genesis 50:24 And JOSEPH SAID UNTO HIS BRETHREN, I die: and
God
will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the
land
which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. 25 And Joseph
took
an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit
you,
and ye shall CARRY UP MY BONES bones from hence. 26 So Joseph
died,
being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he
was
put in acoffin in Egypt.
MOSES TAKES THE BONES OF JOSEPH
In Exodus 13:19 it is written:
KJV Exodus 13:19 And MOSES TOOK THE BONES OF JOSEPH with him: for
he
had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will
surely
visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.
JOSEPH'S BONES ARE BURIED IN SHECHEM
(West Bank)
When the children of Israel went into
the promised land, they
carried the bones of Joseph with them and buried his bones in
Shechem
(Nablus) in the West Bank (mountains of Israel). In Joshua 24:1,
32
it is written:
KJV Joshua 24:1 And Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to
SHECHEM, and called for the elders of Israel, and for their
heads, and
for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented
themselves before God.
KJV Joshua 24:32 And the BONES OF JOSEPH, which the children of
Israel
brought up out of Egypt, buried they in SHECHEM, in a parcel of
ground
which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for
an
hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the
children of Joseph.
THE MESSIAH LEADS
JOSEPH LIKE A FLOCK
The shepherd of Israel (Messiah) was prophecied to
lead Joseph
(the house of Joseph) like a flock. Christianity identifies
Yeshua /
Jesus as being the "good shepherd".
In John 10:10, Messiah says:
KJV John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth
his
life for the sheep.
KJV Psalm 80:1 {To the chief Musician upon Shoshannimeduth, A
Psalm of
Asaph.} Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph
like
a flock ...
RACHEL WEEPS FOR HER CHILDREN
When a mother (Rachel) witnesses hardship that
happens to her son (the
desecration of Joseph's tomb) most mothers are usually in
tears.
Rachel (the mother of Joseph) is prophecied to WEEP for HER
CHILDREN (the house of Joseph) and she is REFUSED to be COMFORTED
because of their calamity. In Jeremiah 31:15 it is written:
KJV Jeremiah 31:15 Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in
Ramah,
lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children
refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
THERE IS HOPE IN YOUR END
Rachel gets comforted when her children return
to their border
(the mountains of Israel). This is the Messianic redemption /
Ingathering of the exiles or the restoration of both houses of
Israle. In Jeremiah 31:16-17 it is written:
KJV Jeremiah 31:16 Thus saith the LORD; REFRAIN thy voice FROM
WEEPING, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be
rewarded,
saith the LORD; and they shall come again from the LAND OF THE
ENEMY.
17 And THERE IS HOPE in thine end, saith the LORD, that THY
CHILDREN
shall come again to their OWN BORDER. (the mountains of Israel /
West
Bank).
THE HOUSE OF JOSEPH A FLAME
In most wars,
there is a defining moment in time which
becomes the "battle cry" to "rally the
troops" that defines the
turning point in winning a war. Time will prove that the
desecration
of Joseph's tomb, the setting on fire of Joseph's tomb and yes,
there
were even reports of urinating on Joseph's tomb will be the POINT
IN
TIME when the SPARK OF FIRE was set to INITIATE (begin a PROCESS)
for
the reunification between the house of Joseph / Ephraim and the
house of Judah to the mountains of Israel (West Bank) (Ezekiel
37:15-28).
The ONLY GROUP in the WORLD who is
showing sympathy with Judah
during her time of travail are Bible believing Christians
(Ephraim /
house of Jospeh) who embrace Torah, have a love for
Jerusalem and
the land that was promised to Abraham. As things get DARKER
and
DARKER in the world, JUDAH will begin to recognize the
FLAME (light)
of Joseph / Ephraim for Torah, the land and for his brother
Judah.
JUDAH CANNOT OVERCOME ESAU UNTIL
the HOUSE OF JOSEPH becomes a
FLAME in the battle. In Obadiah verse 21 is says:
JV Obadiah 1:17 But upon MOUNT ZION shall be DELIVERANCE, and
there
shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their
possessions. 18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the
HOUSE
OF JOSEPH A FLAME, and the HOUSE OF ESAU FOR STUBBLE, and they
shall
kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any
remaining
of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
NOT UNTIL the house of Joseph become a
FLAME and a FIRE and
JOINS with the house of Judah iin UNITY can the house of
ESAU become
a STUBBLE.
In order for this to happen, the BONES
OF JOSEPH MUST LIVE !!!!
CAN THESE BONES LIVE ??
The tomb of Joseph has been desecrated.
The enemy is showing
distaste for the bones of Joseph coming ALIVE so he has used his
pawns in the natural world (the PLO) to URINATE on the bones of
Joseph. Is the HOUSE OF JOSEPH OUTRAGED that the tomb of their
father
has been desecrated? Can the bones of Joseph live? In Ezekiel
37:1-3,
9-12 it is written:
KJV Ezekiel 37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon
me, and carried me out
in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the
valley
which was full of bones, 2 And caused me to pass by them round
about:
and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo,
they
were very dry. 3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones
live?
9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of
man, and say
to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O
breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. 10 So I
prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and
they
lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. 11
Then
he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the WHOLE HOUSE OF
ISRAEL: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is
lost:
we are cut off for our parts. 12 Therefore prophesy and say unto
them,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your
graves,
and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into
the
land of Israel.
WHO IS THE WHOLE HOUSE OF ISRAEL?
The WHOLE house of Israel is the house of
Joseph / Ephraim and
the house of Judah. In Ezekiel 37:15-19 it is written:
KJV Ezekiel 37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me,
saying, 16
Moreover, thou son of man, take thee ONE STICK, and write upon
it, For
JUDAH, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take
ANOTHER STICK, and write upon it, For JOSEPH, the stick of
Ephraim,
and for all the house of Israel his companions: 17 And join them
one
to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine
hand. 18
And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee,
saying,
Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? 19 Say unto
them,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph,
which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his
fellows,
and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and
make
them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
THE BONES OF JOSEPH TO BE TAKEN TO THE MOUNTAINS OF
ISRAEL
The descendents of Joseph are now
in the nations of the world
(their graves). However, God said that the house of Joseph would
become a flame and the WIND (Ruach HaKodesh) would BLOW on them
bones
and cause them to come alive (want to follow Torah, the Sabbath,
the
Biblical Festivals, love Jerusalem, Judah and the land of Israel)
and
would cause them to return to the land. In Ezekiel 37:12, 21-22
it is
written:
KJV Ezekiel 37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus
saith the
Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will OPEN YOUR GRAVES, and cause
you
to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of
Israel.
KJV Ezekiel 37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
Behold,
I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen,
whither
they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them
into
their own land: 22 And I will make them one nation in the land
upon
the MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL ...
With these words, Comfort, Comfort, my people saith the Lord as
it is written in Isaiah 40:1 to the VOICE CRYING IN THE
WILDERNESS
(the SPIRIT of ELIJAH) to PREPARE the WAY OF THE LORD (the
coming of
King Messiah).
KJV Isaiah 40:1 Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.
May the bones of Joseph live! (Od Yosef Chai)

JEWISH RESPONSE
TO THE CONFLICT

Judean Voice News and Commentary
The #1 Jewish/Israeli News e-zine
***************************************
This is on MSNBC, yesterday:
INCITEMENT TO KILL JEWS
In Tehran, thousands of Iranians chanted "death to
Israel" and burned
Israeli flags in a rally on Thursday in support of what they
called a
new Palestinian intifada (uprising).
Egyptian Islamic militant Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman, jailed for
life
for his part in a plot to bomb buildings in New York, has called
on
all Muslims to kill Jews everywhere. The blind cleric is the
spiritual
leader of Egypt's largest Islamic militant group, al-Gama'a
al-Islamiya (Islamic Group), which gained infamy in 1997 for the
massacre of 58 foreign tourists and four Egyptians at a tourist
site
in Luxor.
"I call on Islamic scholars to play their role and issue a
collective
fatwa (religious edict) urging the Islamic nation to fight and
kill
Jews everywhere," the influential Egyptian cleric said in a
statement,
dictated to Reuters by a London-based Islamic pressure group on
Thursday.
Judean Voice Commentary:
The only answer to the Arab violence in Israel and to the death
threats of the local Islamic terrorists is to recreate a
Jewish Legion.
An emergency meeting to announce the recreation of the Jewish
Legion
will be held after the Yom Kippur fast, Monday night, at 9:30 PM,
at
the Hatikva Jewish Center, 1090 Coney Island Ave. Brooklyn, N.Y.
