US Cattle Herd at Record Lows

 If you think beef is expensive, it is.  And if you want to know why, we just go to the simple laws of supply and demand.  There is a large demand and limited supply.  So the deeper question might be; Why is the supply so low?

On top of all this, the nation's cattle crisis is set to worsen with new pressures: President Donald Trump's anticipated tariff war 2.0, which is expected to tighten domestic beef supplies. 

"All of the things he is talking about have potentially negative consequences more so than anything positive," Derrell Peel, a professor of agricultural economics at Oklahoma State University, told Bloomberg in a previous report, adding, "Our fate's pretty well determined in the cattle industry in the US for the next two to four years – and it's not looking good."

About a year ago, the USDA projected that the cattle herd could begin rebuilding by 2025. However, that timeline has since shifted to 2027. The reason is primarily because of high interest rates and poor pasture conditions in the Midwest.

Trump Has Exposed the Hypocrisy of Gaza’s Allies

Trump has suggested that Egypt and Jordan, who claim to be supportive of the Palestinians, should take them into their own countries and care for them as refugees.  Of course they quickly vetoed that idea!  The Arabs don’t want any of their troubled Arab cousins in Gaza coming into their land.  They only want to use them as human pawns to keep the lie alive that “Israel is an evil occupier of stolen lands.”  And how many on planet earth and in US college towns actually believe that lie?  Most.

************************

Nevertheless, Trump’s statement was useful, in that by making it, the US President cast light on one of the enduring absurdities of the situation in the Middle East.

Namely, that while Arab and Muslim states profess loyalty to the Palestinian cause, this rarely – if ever – extends to measures to actually help the plight of actual, living Palestinians.

Observe: for the last year, we have been told, endlessly, by Al Jazeera and other ‘pro-Palestinian’ media outlets, that a ‘genocide’ was taking place in Gaza.

Where a genocide is taking place, the first and most obvious measure to be taken, before political considerations, should surely be to offer safe haven to any of the potential victims who manage to extricate themselves from the area where it is taking place.

Neither Arab nor other states have, however, offered such refuge to Gazans. Of course, the claims of genocide are refutable. What was taking place in Gaza was war, the result of the Islamist rulers of Gaza choosing to initiate war on 7 October 2023.

Asteroid Heading for Earth in 2032

Just see if you can spot the liberal bias of this author right out of the gate.  We’ve been poor stewards of the planet so maybe these meteor should hit us square and put us all out of our misery. 🙄

Of course these reports of meteors coming are very prophetic because Revelation tells us that something like a burning mountain (fiery meteor?) is going to crash into the sea and cause epic destruction during the Great Tribulation.

*********************

Astronomers have spotted a space rock, an estimated 200 feet in length, that they say just may be headed for Earth.

As the New York Times reports, the rock, dubbed 2024 YR4, has a 1.3 percent chance of putting us out of our misery on December 22, 2032 — a fate we just might deserve, considering our incredibly careless stewardship of the planet.

"Odds have slightly increased to 1 in 83," University of Arizona researcher David Rankin wrote in a post on Bluesky. "This is one of the highest probabilities of an impact from a significantly sized rock ever."

 "Most likely outcome is still a near miss," he added. "We continue to track it!"

On a serious note, that potential collision course probably shouldn't keep us up at night, Rankin assured the NYT.

If it were to collide with our planet, it wouldn't threaten the entire thing, though it could easily wipe out an entire city. An asteroid roughly similar in size impacted a remote region of Siberia in 1908, obliterating 800 square miles of forest.

Bible Literacy Has Never Been Lower

 Not a big surprise here.  People want to find “their truth” in 10 second clips on YouTube or Tik Tok.  They don’t want to put in hours of Bible reading and months of study to understand.  We are the generation that wants to take a pill to lose weight instead of exercising and eating less.  But America will continue to deteriorate if most voters don’t understand what “Judea-Christian values” are and where they come from.

***********************

In a poll by the Barna Group, half of those who described themselves as Christians didn’t believe that Satan exists, and one-third were confident that Jesus sinned while He was on Earth.

It seems to me that in the church today, there’s a rising biblical illiteracy among professed followers of Jesus. Our biblical IQ, if you will, never has been lower.

As George Barna put it, “Growing numbers of people now serve as their own theologian-in-residence.”

What we believe about God and what He says about Himself is the most important thing we could focus on and think about. In fact, what we think about God has everything to do with how we live our lives. Our views of God will determine how we react to what comes our way in life.

Yet, we don’t have to check our brains at the door when we choose to be followers of Jesus Christ, because Christianity is a reasonable faith. It is a logical faith.

Biblically Thinking

God says, “Come now, and let us reason together,” (Isaiah 1:18). A modern version of this verse says, “Come. Sit down. Let’s argue this out.”

We need to think and act biblically, not emotionally. Far too many people today emote when it comes to God. They feel, but they don’t think. They say things like, “I don’t believe in a God of love judging anyone,” “My God would never do thus and so,” or the classic, “I’m not into organized religion; I’m just a really spiritual person.”

We need to think carefully about these things. We neglect theology at our own peril, because experience is never to be the basis for theology. Rather, sound theology should be the basis for our experience.

C.S. Lewis gave this warning: “If you do not listen to theology, that will not mean that you have no ideas about God. It will mean that you have a lot of wrong ones.”

The Wrong Jesus

The apostle Paul wrote, “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee” (1 Timothy 4:16).

Yet, someone will say, “Well, I just love Jesus! Can’t we just set these things aside?” That is a nice sentiment, but here’s the problem: What if you end up loving the wrong Jesus?

For instance, if the Jesus whom you supposedly love sinned while He was on Earth, as half of the self-described Christians in the Barna poll believe, then what kind of savior is that? If the Jesus you love is not the Jesus of the Bible, then effectively you’re an idolater. You’re worshiping another god.

Imagine if you boarded a plane, and just before takeoff, the pilot announced over the intercom, “Fuel schmuel! Let’s just see how far this bucket of bolts will go!”

Or, what would you think about a surgeon who said, “Hey, let’s just get out the scalpel, start cutting, and see what happens”?

You would be alarmed.

Yet, at the same time, when it comes to something that decides their eternal destiny, many people treat it casually, effectively making up the rules as they go.

A. W. Tozer said, “Nothing twists or deforms the soul more than a low or unworthy conception of God.”

We must have a proper understanding of the character and nature of God, and there is no better place to start than with God Himself. What does the Bible say about God?

God exists and is the creator of the universe and humanity. Of course, I know there are atheists who have done their level best to undermine the faith of those who choose to believe the Bible. However, most polls would reveal that Americans, by and large, believe in God.

Interestingly, the Bible never tries to prove the existence of God. It simply starts with these words: “In the beginning God …” (Genesis 1:1). This assumes the obvious. It assumes that people know this is true. And frankly, I think it takes far more faith to believe there is no God than to believe there is one.

The Next Generation is Ready to Accept the Antichrist

 Our forefathers gave us a Constitutional Republic and then said, "this document will only serve a wholly religious and moral people.  It will not work for any other."  

Now look around at America and the Western world.  We have schools teaching that humans all evolved from rocks and scum and there is no creator.  We have colleges teaching kids that Israel is the aggressor and the Arabs are the victims.  We have drugs consuming more and more of our youth.  We have churches closing faster than they can erect FOR SALE signs.  Where do we get our morals from?  Bible readers know the answer to that but does the rest of the world?

The folks in the age range of 13-27 is called Generation Z and it's pretty disheartening to read the polls that show what they believe.  They simply have no understanding of the blessings of freedom that we have in America and the West.  

The Bible foretells a time when a powerful and charismatic global leader will rise to dominance, demanding absolute loyalty (mark of the beast) and ruling with unchecked authority. Known as the Antichrist, this figure will captivate the world with promises of peace and progress--only to lead many into deception and destruction (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4). While such a scenario may have once seemed distant, recent polling suggests that Generation Z is already primed to accept a leader who bypasses democracy and rules by decree. 

Faced with disillusionment and distrust in government, the media, and even the church, they are searching for someone strong enough to take control--regardless of the cost to personal freedoms. The seeds of authoritarianism are being sown, and the stage is being set for a leader who will exploit this longing for radical change.

A recent study by the United Kingdom's Channel 4 news reveals that over half of Gen Z (ages 13-27) believe the UK would be better off with a leader who does not have to bother with parliament or elections. Even more disturbingly, a third say the country would be better off under military rule. Nearly half of this generation believes that society must be radically reshaped, even through revolution. These findings suggest that democracy itself is losing its grip on the next generation.

Why is this happening? The answer is simple: Gen Z does not know who to trust. They see government as incompetent, the media as manipulative, and the church as compromised. They have been raised in a world of political chaos, economic instability, and moral relativism, where truth is no longer absolute but self-defined. Their trust in traditional democratic systems has been shattered, leaving them vulnerable to the idea that only a strong, decisive leader--one unrestrained by laws, opposition, or due process--can bring order.

Beyond distrust, there is also a deep craving for efficiency. Having grown up in a world of instant gratification--where everything from food to information is available at the push of a button--many in Gen Z are frustrated by the slow, cumbersome nature of democracy. They see parliamentary debates, elections, and checks and balances as obstacles rather than safeguards. 

In their eyes, the ability to "get things done" is more important than the process by which those things happen. This mindset creates an openness to leaders who promise results without the delays of democratic procedure. It is not hard to see how such thinking could be exploited by a future leader who promises order, prosperity, and justice--if only the people will grant him total control.

Biblical prophecy warns that the Antichrist will emerge in a time of crisis, offering solutions that the world is desperate to accept. He will appear as a savior, bringing stability where there is chaos, unity where there is division, and prosperity where there is lack (Revelation 13:16-17). But his rule will ultimately lead to tyranny, persecution, and the suppression of truth.

Gen Z's current attitudes make them particularly susceptible to such a leader. Their frustration with democracy, eagerness for radical change, and willingness to surrender freedoms for the sake of efficiency mirror the conditions that have led to dictatorships throughout history. From Hitler's Germany to Mao's China, authoritarian regimes have always risen in times of widespread uncertainty, when people longed for a figure who could "fix everything."

Another key factor paving the way for the Antichrist is Gen Z's growing embrace of digital control. This is the first generation to grow up entirely in the digital age, where surveillance, data tracking, and algorithmic manipulation are normal aspects of life. Many young people willingly sacrifice privacy for convenience, allowing tech companies and governments to monitor their movements, purchases, and beliefs. 

They see no issue with centralized digital currencies, social credit systems, or artificial intelligence shaping their reality. This normalization of total surveillance means that when a future leader demands global compliance through digital tracking--something the Bible describes as the "mark of the beast" (Revelation 13:16-17)--it will seem not only acceptable but logical. The infrastructure is already being built, and Gen Z, more than any prior generation, is primed to accept it without question.

Linking Artificial Intelligence to Your Digital Identity

 AI has gotten lots of attention in the past year, and it should.  We’ve been warned by some of the brightest among us that this technology will be dangerous and even could lead to the extinction of humans on planet earth.  As we’ve said on previous posts, it’s not going to take long for AI to figure out that humans are the cause of all problems on earth.  Humans are the polluters, murderers, rapists, drug addicts, sex traffickers, thieves and war mongers.  Planet earth would be better off without any humans.  And just like the movies, once AI learns that rotten humans control it and could shut it off and murder it, it may try and kill its handlers.  Sounds like science fiction?  Yep, for sure.  But so did cell phones and the internet just 30 years ago.

We live in the age of deception and it’s going to get harder and harder for the average person to know what’s real and what’s created by AI.  Of course this is all very prophetic because Jesus said the very last days will be very deceitful.  There will be so much deception that “even the elect would be deceived, if that were possible.”  I believe the reason it’s not possible is because we have been taken in the rapture before Antichrist shows up and God sends great delusion on the left-behind world.

*********************

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman took the technology world by surprise on Thursday with the release of Operator, his company’s first AI agent that can act autonomously on the web.

But OpenAI is not Altman’s only venture that’s trying to capitalize on the popularity of AI agents.

Altman’s World project now wants to create tools that link certain AI agents to people’s online personas, letting other users verify that an agent is acting on a person’s behalf, according to its chief product officer, Tiago Sada.

World, a web3 project by Altman and Alex Blania’s Tools for Humanity that was formerly known as Worldcoin, is based on the idea that it will eventually be impossible to distinguish humans from AI agents on the internet. To address this, World wants to create digital “proof of human” tools. After scanning your eyeball with a silver metal orb, World will give you a unique identifier on the blockchain to verify that you’re a human.

It’s worth noting that Tools for Humanity has a reputation for pivots and finding itself in controversies. World started as a crypto project, was temporarily banned in some countries, and was recently ordered to let Europeans delete their biometric data on request. In October, the project dropped “coin” from its name, signaling it would focus more on human verification, and less on crypto.

While verifying AI agents so they can do things on behalf of people may seem like a divergence from World’s mission to verify humans with web3 IDs, Sada says it’s a critical and logical next step for the project.

“This idea of delegating your ‘proof of personhood’ to an agent and letting it act on your behalf is actually super important,” he said in an interview with TechCrunch. “Instead of only allowing people you think are human [on your website], you will also allow AI agents that represent a real human. This is where World ID comes in.”

World’s ID technology could also be used to license AI agents to act on your behalf, Sada said. In a recent blog post, the project notes that its proof of human tools will not only distinguish humans from bots, as they do today, but could help people control a network of AI agents online.

World seems to be expanding its tools to verify “digital actions” that belong to a person, even if they didn’t come from their account. The project says its tools for AI will prove to be essential in 2025, but Sada said the firm will “need to see” if any of those tools involve linking AI agents to people. It sure sounds like the startup is thinking about it, though.

“There’s certain apps where it doesn’t matter if an actual person is using it, or an agent acting on their behalf. You just care to know there is a person endorsing that interaction,” said Sada.

Israel Says Its Troops on Mt Hermon Will Remain Indefinitely

One day the world will have a meltdown about Israel “taking” Mt Hermon which is part of Syria.  Syria is a wreck of a nation and most recently was taken over by Islamic “rebels” who some were part of Al Quida.  Clearly, Israel does not want these unknowns hanging out really close to their border so they used the opportunity of Syria’s fall to take some high ground.

Also of interest is that the book of Enoch says that fallen angels used some type of portal on top of Mt Hermon to enter into the world and start impregnating human women in an attempt to pervert human DNA.

**********************

Israeli troops who seized strategic ground in southern Syria after the fall of Bashar al-Assad will remain on the summit of Mount Hermon indefinitely, Defense Minister Israel Katz said on Tuesday after visiting troops there.

Katz said Israel would not allow what he described as hostile forces to establish themselves in southern Syria.

Mount Hermon, a huge cluster of snowcapped mountain peaks towering above the Syria-Lebanon border, overlooks the Damascus countryside as well as the Golan Heights, which Israel captured from Syria in the 1967 Middle East war.

Israel says its troops have taken up positions inside a UN-monitored demilitarized zone within Syria, and some have ventured beyond it. Israeli officials have previously said that the moves were limited and temporary, to ensure the security of Israeli borders.

Netanyahu to Visit Trump at Whitehouse

Blessings come to those who bless Israel.  Let’s remember to pray for this meeting coming up next week.

******************

 U.S. President Donald Trump invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to visit the White House on Feb. 4, the prime minister’s office stated on Tuesday.

Netanyahu is the first foreign leader that U.S. President Donald Trump has invited for such a visit since Trump began his second term, Netanyahu’s office stated.

“The most pro-Israel president picking up right where he left off: making the U.S.-Israel relationship great again,” the Republican Jewish Coalition stated.

Doomsday Clock Moves Closer to Midnight

 Bible readers know that God is the alpha and omega.  He's the beginning and the end.  He knows the day that Jesus will come for his bride, He knows the day of Jesus' 2nd advent and He knows the day of the Great White Throne judgment.  He also knows the day when time will be rolled up like a scroll and a new heaven and a new earth and the New Jerusalem will all happen.

So we don't put much thought into what men think about when the world will end.

However, it is prophetic to understand that lots of unbelieving men and women think SOMETHING is going on, but they refuse to seek Jesus for the answers.

The Doomsday Clock symbolising how near humanity is to destruction has been moved one second forward to 89 seconds to midnight - the closest it has ever been.

The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists (BAS) - which sets the clock annually - said nuclear threats, potential misuses of advances in biology and artificial intelligence, as well as climate change, were the key factors.

Daniel Holz, chair of the Bulletin's Science and Security Board, said the latest move was "a warning to all world leaders".

The clock was originally placed at seven minutes to midnight in 1947. Last year, it was left unchanged at 90 seconds.

In Tuesday's statement, the BAS - a Chicago-based non-profit organisation - said: "In setting the clock one second closer to midnight, we send a stark signal.

"Because the world is already perilously close to the precipice, a move of even a single second should be taken as an indication of extreme danger and an unmistakable warning that every second of delay in reversing course increases the probability of global disaster."

It warned that the continuing war in Ukraine - now nearing a three-year mark since Russia's full-scale invasion - "could become nuclear at any moment because of a rash decision or through accident or miscalculation".

"Conflict in the Middle East threatens to spiral out of control into a wider war without warning," the statement said.

The panel of scientists also said that "the long-term prognosis for the world's attempts to deal with climate change remains poor, as most governments fail to enact the financing and policy initiatives necessary to halt global warming."

In the biological arena, the BAS continued, "emerging and re-emerging diseases continue to threaten the economy, society and security of the world".

It also warned that "an array of other disruptive technologies advanced last year in ways that make the world more dangerous".

"Systems that incorporate artificial intelligence in military targeting have been used in Ukraine and the Middle East, and several countries are moving to integrate artificial intelligence into their militaries."

The organisation stressed that all these dangers "are greatly exacerbated by a potent threat multiplier: the spread of misinformation, disinformation and conspiracy theories that degrade the communication ecosystem and increasingly blur the line between truth and falsehood".

The US, China and Russia, the BAS said, "have the collective power to destroy civilisation", adding that the three nations "have the prime responsibility to pull the world back from the brink".

Here;  'Doomsday Clock' moved closest ever to humanity's destruction

It's called the 'joy of the Lord" and it's why Bible believers don't panic when the scientists say that the oceans are going to rise and kill us all, or the volcano is going to erupt and kill us all, or the meteor is going to hit earth and kill us all.

God is in control and nothing happens without His say so.

So don't worry, be joyful!  Jesus is coming!

Trump is Going to Remake the Military and Fulfill More Promises

The US Government now only recognizes two genders, male and female, exactly as God has ordained.  In following his promise during the campaign, Trump is going to sign an executive order that bans transgenders from serving in the military.

Awesome!  Let's let really strong men, who know they are men, do the fighting.  Let's not make our military men watch videos like, "How to shower with a transgender at your FOB". (Forward Operating Base)

And let's let men who can pass Navy Seal training serve as Navy Seals and have no regard to their skin color.  

And how about all the women who say that sexual abuse is rampant in the military??  Well duh!!  You have a bunch of testosterone loaded men in the height of their sexual drive and you put women in front of them in a dorm room at basic training??  Here's an idea, no women serving with men.  They don't do basic together, they don't live together, they don't shower together, they don't drink together.  If women want to serve maybe they would be best serving with other women?

 President Donald Trump on Monday is expected to sign four executive orders that would reshape the military, including banning transgender service members from serving in the US armed forces, gutting the military’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs, and reinstating with back pay service members who were discharged for refusing to get vaccinated from Covid-19, two White House officials told CNN.

The orders, which were first reported by the New York Post, come as Trump’s nominee to lead the Pentagon, Pete Hegseth, was sworn in as secretary of defense on Saturday. Hegseth has long stated he planned to implement major cultural changes to the military, including ending DEI practices and removing “woke” service members.

Moments after his arrival at the Pentagon on Monday, Hegseth told reporters that there are “more executive orders coming.”

“Today, there are more executive orders coming, … on removing DEI inside the Pentagon, reinstating troops who were pushed out because of Covid mandates, iron dome for America — this is happening quickly, and as the secretary of defense, it’s an honor to salute smartly as I did as a junior officer and now as the secretary of defense to ensure these orders are complied with rapidly and quickly,” Hegseth said.

Trump had banned transgender Americans form serving in the military in 2017 during his first administration, but then-President Joe Biden issued an order in 2021 repealing the ban.

Hours after being sworn in for his second term last week, Trump signed an order revoking the Biden administration’s 2021 move to allow transgender members to serve. However, the order Trump is expected to sign on Monday goes even further, one of the officials said, and will outline new military standards regarding gender pronouns and state that mental and physical readiness requires transgender service members be banned from the military.

Vatican Opens Door for Gay Priests

 So it sounds like priests are still supposed to remain celibate but now their struggle with lust can include gay men lusting after sex with other gay men.  Yeah, that ought to go well!🙄

We continue to believe that the Catholic Church could very well play a huge part in the ONE-WORLD religion that will demand worship of Antichrist.  To do this they will need to be welcoming of all sinful behavior and NOT demand that sinners change.  They also need to celebrate pluralism by saying that all religions lead people to God…and they are doing both.

**************************

In the Church there is place for everyone, for everyone. No one is useless, no one is superfluous, there is space for everyone. Just the way we are, everyone. — Pope Francis

A document published on January 10 by the Italian Bishops’ Conference allows openly gay men to apply for the priesthood.

The document stipulates that celibacy is the requirement—a routine mandate for the priesthood that, one would think, would override and make irrelevant whatever the candidate’s sexual preference was. It would be something like saying, “While you’re fasting, please refrain from eating any food.”

Nevertheless, the document is seen as a major step forward for the Church, which is trying to be more inclusive to groups such as women and the LGBTQ community, which it had previously shut out from holding ecclesiastical positions. The Italian bishop hierarchy, in particular, has been running thin on recruits and so has opened its gates in favor of more diversity in vocation.

The document states, “In the formative process, when referring to homosexual tendencies, it’s also appropriate not to reduce discernment only to this aspect, but, as for every candidate, to grasp its meaning in the global framework of the young person’s personality,” and adds that the goal is for the candidate to know himself and find harmony between his human and priestly vocation.

New Ways Ministry, an advocacy group for LGBTQ Catholics in the U.S., welcomed the document, saying in a statement, “This new clarification treats gay candidates in the same way that heterosexual candidates are treated. That type of equal treatment is what the Church should be aiming for in regards to all LGBTQ+ issues.”

Pope Frances has been ambivalent on the subject. On the one hand, he famously said, “Who am I to judge?” in response to a question on gay priests, and on the other, he openly expressed his doubts that gay priests could maintain their celibacy.

This past May, he apologized for using a homophobic slur in describing gays in a private meeting with 200 Italian bishops a week earlier. According to local reports, the pontiff said, “There is already enough faggotry” in Catholic seminaries. Shortly after the reports, the Vatican released a statement: “The pope never meant to offend or express himself with homophobic terms, and he issues his most sincere apologies to all those who felt offended by the use of a term reported by others.”

Trump Tells Arab Nations to Absorb the Arabs of Gaza

 Every day since Trump’s election has provided a smile.  I’m sure it won’t last but it’s sure been fun, especially this past week since Trump was sworn in.  Today we read that Trump wants neighboring countries to take these troublesome Arabs that started referring to themselves as Palestinians about 50 years ago at the behest of Yassir Arafat.  

There is no such thing as “Palestinian people”.  There is nothing in history that can show us a Palestinian nation, Palestinian kings, Palestinian currency or Palestinian anything…because it doesn’t exist.  

In comes Trump.  Remember in his first term he moved our embassy to Jerusalem.  He also ordered that US quit referring to the Golan Heights as “occupied territory” and insisted it was rightfully Israel’s.  And now it would appear he may be trying to fix Gaza by just clearing out all its people into surrounding nations.

**********************

President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he would like Jordan, Egypt and other Arab nations to absorb Palestinian refugees to “clean out” Gaza.

“I’d like Egypt to take people,” Trump said during a 20-minute question-and-answer session with reporters aboard Air Force One. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing and say, ‘You know, it’s over.’”

Toward this end, Trump spoke with King Abdullah II of Jordan and planned to speak on  Sunday with President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi of Egypt. Trump said he complimented Jordan for having successfully accepted Palestinian refugees and that he told the king, “I’d love for you to take on more, cause I’m looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now, and it’s a mess. It’s a real mess.”

He said resettling “could be temporary or long term.”

“Something has to happen,” Trump said. “But it’s literally a demolition site right now. Almost everything’s demolished, and people are dying there.” He added: “So, I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations, and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”

In an interview with Israel365 News, MK Ohad Tal said, 

“President Trump is right because Gazans are the only people on earth not allowed to flee a war zone. I believe that the vast majority of Gazans will leave if they are allowed which will solve the core problem for the entire region. We are going to work on this proposal with Trump’s new administration in Washington.”
