I have a book that lists all the calamities that have struck America and the "coincidence" that many of the major ones coincided with our leaders doing something sour with Israel. Of course the Bible warns against nations dividing up HIS land and HIS people, meaning Israel and Jews.
So is it another coincidence that while Trump's team is talking about carving up some land for Arabs and kicking out the Jews that inhabit that land, that a major Cat 4 hurricane is about to make landfall in Louisiana and Texas?
We have no idea, but this Rabbi says yes.
Twin tropical systems began hitting the northern Coast of Mexico on Monday and are expected to continue into mid-week. Hurricane Marco was downgraded to a tropical depression as it made landfall near the mouth of the Mississippi River. Though concerns about flooding and heavy rain remain, initial fears of predicted tornadoes have been averted.
The more intense concern is for the soon-to-hit is Tropical Storm Laura, which has already killed at least nine people in the Caribbean and is expected to become a hurricane before making landfall on the US mainland late Wednesday or early Thursday. A hurricane watch has been called for an area covering parts of Texas and Louisiana.
The timing of the storm is portentous, coming as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is travelling around the Middle East and Africa in an effort to arrange a multi-national Middle East peace conference to be held in the next few weeks in one of the Arab Gulf states. This comes in the wake of the announcement that the Trump administration brokered an agreement to normalize relations between Israel and the United Arab emirates.
Under the agreement, Israel and the UAE agreed to full diplomatic ties including exchanging ambassadors, starting direct flights, and trading openly.Though many of the details of the agreement have yet to be revealed, it is believed that the agreement with the UAE would require Israel to delay or cancel plans to declare sovereignty over Judea and Samaria. Pompeo has stated in the past that extending Israeli sovereignty was a decision “for Israelis to make.”
Katrina-esque
The double storm that is lashing at the US right now is reminiscent of Hurricane Katrina, the most devastating storm in US history, that hit the same region in 2005 on precisely the same fateful day; August 25. Though it was a category 3 hurricane and not particularly powerful, warm waters quickly ramped Katrina up to a terrifying category 5 hurricane just as it hit. Katrina’s impact was intensified even more by its unusual double-eyewall. It is especially rare for a double-eyewall to remain intact after making landfall but Katrina’s did, with the outer eyewall adding an additional category 2 storm on top of the category 5 hurricane presented by the inner-eyewall.
