Couple of things about Israel’s bombing of Gaza, they do warn the residents with fliers and Israeli soldiers have very strict rules before they can fire their guns. The soldiers are almost handicapped in their ability to defend themselves to the point where I know friends who wanted their kids to leave the military, former special service soldiers themselves. Having said that it looks like they are leveling Gaza. Most Israelis thought Sharon made a terrible mistake when they gave the land to the Palestinians.
Some other historical facts, in 1920 the League of Nations signed the British Mandate in San Remo, Italy which would have returned the land to the Jews almost to its Biblical boundaries. Briitish were supposed to act as trustees of the Land but under pressure from the Arab nations did fulfill this and the Jews remained in Europe and were slaughtered by Hitler ( and I will add the Americans who aided and abetted the Nazis too) .
After WWII the Union Nations which replaced League of Nations came up with the Partition Plan. At this time the definition of who was a Palestinian was anyone who spent two months in the Land between certain dates. Many of the Palestinians were Jordanians and Egyptians . The Palestinians turned down the Petition Plan.
Mark Twain described Israel as a wasteland until such time as it was declared a State.
In the Bible the biblical borders of Israel are much larger than they are now, except that Jews do not represent all Israel because originally there were 12 tribes and now technically the Jews represent 2 1/2 tribes, Judah, Benjamin and some Levites. The 10 tribes are mixed in the nations. In Ezekiel 37:15-28 the Bible says both houses will be restored at the end of days under a divdic King.
Throughout the Bible, the conditions for Israel staying in the Land were that they obey the Torah. When they didn’t they were exiled and after the reign of Solomon the nation was divided in two and the Northern Kingdom was exiled by Assyria and never returned corporately. Judah or the Southern Kingdom remained the visible remnant and was exiled for 70 years to Babylon and a remnant came back after and rebuilt the Temple. After Babylonia exile, Median Persian exile, the Jews went back in part and remained under the Greeks and Romans until the Second Temple was destroyed roughly 40 years following the death and resurrection of Jesus/Yeshua.
All of the prophets speak of a restoration of Israel in the last days and also many wars leading up to the Second Coming of Jesus/ Yeshua which is detailed in Zechariah 14 and Revelations. In Zechariah 12 the tribes of Israel will “look upon him who they pierced and weep as one wears for an old begotten Son”.
In Ezekiel which speaks of the Millennial kingdom the land will be restored to all Israel, all 12 tribes and there will be those who dwell among them.
The Bible clearly speaks of a time of total peace but prior to there will be all kinds of wars and 2/3rds of Israel will be destroyed by invaders with plunder rape etc. Regardless of your beliefs this is all outlined in the Bible, and even the prophet Isaiah said that the desert one day would bloom and that has been fulfilled.
That doesn’t mean you have to like Netanyahu. If you read Kings and Chronicles, Israel had a series of good and very bad and wicked Kings. Netanyahu is not a King.
Biblical prophecy is remarkably accurate and it’s entirely possible we are seeing the beginnings of the fulfillment of End Days prophecy along with all of the other economic, geopolitical events going on.
Without King Yeshua reigning there will never be real shalom in the Land.
Regardless of all fhe bad players the battle is very much a spiritual one. The bad news is that things will get worse, but the good news is one day hopefully soon things will get much better.
My study and thoughts exactly. Thank you for an excellent summary
WAG THE DOG (!!!) all this week I’ve been wanting to re-watch that movie.
EVERYBODY needs to see it. It’s also incredibly funny and Dustin Hoffman is so fun.
The content of the post by New Arab News: “Over 800 Israeli Settlers Storm Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound During Jewish Sukkot Holiday” should fact checked:
This from a text I received 10/08/23 from three American tourists I personally know and trust who were staying in the Old City of Jerusalem since 10/03/23:
“Al jazeera news said that settlers attacked the Al Aska Mosque 3 days ago (10/05/23). They are calling this escalation “Al Aska Flood”. We have been here since the 3rd (of October). No such thing has happened. We were on the Temple Mount that day!”
I work very closely with a Palestinian from Aleppo. During the run up to the revolution against Assad he passed by a carload of weapons being offered to every university student walking by. A week later he got calls from family members living in other Arab countries about the explosions and gunfire at the Aleppo airport. He lived next to the airport and told them that nothing was going on at the airport. Every family member responded, we are watching it right now on Al jazeera.

Great show as always. Want to hear more about the truth-telling stock picker John met at a car wash in 2005 and opened his eyes about 9/11! Sounds like a great story.
When you seem surprised at JT’s admission of what he thought in front of the T.V. set I laughed. Sounded like I had a twin brother from a different mother. It just took some time for mw to clear my head and put things together. Was too young to realize it but Oswald was my red pill moment and it did not gestate until the years after 9/11. I know that seems a stretch but it crystallized things. I may have had an empty head but I had a white heart. Now I am wide awake.
When I heard the bankers talking about entrainment in 1984 and stopped watching TV and started reading it changed everything. You left the trance because there were no smart phones.
Catherine, I agree with your views in regards to Hamilton. He’s long been one of my heroes and I admired (learned this long prior to this episode) you greatly for naming your company after him. I also admire and immensely respect John but I believe he’s incorrect if we are to reduce Hamilton to a “good” guy or “bad” guy type analysis. I find many people have a view similar to John’s about him these days. The “father of the central bank” motif seems to be enough for people to take that position. All one really needs to know is who bought Aaron Burr’s pistols and had them as prized possessions for many years to know how the crime syndicate viewed Hamilton. John Rockefeller.
One minor point of disagreement… You remarked that your main point of contention with Hamilton was his promotion of private ownership of the bank but it wasn’t it a public-private venture with governmental control? Granted, one may argue that approach was rife for exploitation, but if the corruption reaches a certain point, established rules and laws don’t really matter anyway in my opinion. I’m also not sure if the bank would’ve worked without private funding due to the financial context of the time.
A good quick reference for this conversation might be “Hamilton versus Wall Street” by Nancy Spannus, Link below for those interested. It’s from the LaRouche people whom I can’t always agree with, but I think they are correct about Hamilton and the American System of Economics. There is a clear and distinguishable line that runs from Franklin/Hamilton/Washington to Henry Clay/Daniel Webster/JQA/Matthew Carey/Lincoln and on to FDR/JFK that is very useful for understanding what America was really all about in my opinion.
Just my two cents. Thanks for suffering through the technical problems, that can be maddening.

Ordered the book.
Yes, government control. Will go back to check the details.
I do think he was a bit took close to the East Indies folks.
