View From Jerusalem

Seriously...this is getting weird....ANOTHER editorial in the Wall Street Journal today about Jerusalem.

Imagine that you're an Israeli perusing the past week's headlines. Senior U.S. military officials have told Congress that Iran may be a year away from producing a bomb's worth of fissile material. Efforts to sanction Iran are again bogged down at the U.N., even as the sanctions are watered down to insignificance. And senior Israeli officials now say that Syria has supplied Hezbollah with Scud-D missiles that can hit every city in Israel with a one-ton warhead to an accuracy of 50 meters.

Oh, and now the Obama Administration seems increasingly of the view that Israel is the primary cause of instability in the Middle East. In a press conference last week, President Obama said the U.S. had a "vital national security interest" in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, on the theory that "when conflict breaks out . . . that ends up costing us significantly in terms of both blood and treasure."

For all the current talk about Israel costing America lives and treasure, the striking fact is that the U.S. has never had to go to war to defend the Jewish state.

The Obama Administration seems not to grasp this point, which is why these are anxious days for Israel and its American friends.

I know I keep quoting it, but need to do it again...Zechariah 12:3, "I (God) will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves."

So let's think about this....President Obama is the leader of this nation and is trying to move Jerusalem to make peace with it's enemies and carve up it's land.

Should we expect things to go well for the USA according to the Word of God??
