Trump, Evangelicals and GOP: Best Friends Israel Ever Had :: By Geri Ungurean

There is no doubt that God intervenes in the affairs of men and women; and countries.  For whatever reason, he allowed the reign of an evil “king” in Barack Obama for 8 long years.  BHO was the embodiment of all that is evil and opposed to God.  I guess one could say that Obama was similar in his ways to the devil  himself.

Enter President Donald Trump

To bring at least a temporary reprieve to the misery of BHO, God seated Trump on the “throne” of America when he won so handily in the last election. President Trump is trying to right the many wrongs of Obama.  We need to pray for our president every day.  He left his Empire of real estate wealth to help America to heal and as he says “To be great again.”

Trump’s love for Israel

It is no accident that Donald Trump has a true love for the nation of Israel. He is not perfect – no one is, save our Lord Jesus. But I believe that all of his actions and decisions about Israel and the Palestinians (I call them Philistines) are born out of his abiding love for God’s Chosen.

Evangelicals better friends to Israel than American Jews

It has become increasingly evident in our world that Israel has no better friends than “true” Evangelical Christians.  I had to insert the word “true” because we are witnessing an ever increasing number of those who identify as Evangelicals, turning away from Israel. I have a difficult time believing that anyone who hates Israel and supports the Palestinian cause, is truly a born again believer.

American Jews, on the other hand, are not “friends and supporters” of Israel as one would imagine them to be. Secularism has invaded American Jewry, and it alarms me to see the uncaring, cavalier attitude towards Israel by a majority of Jews in America.

One of my favorite writers is Caroline Glick from Israel.  A prolific writer of truth, she sees things clearly on the geopolitical front.  Pray for her to come to know her Messiah Yeshua.

Israel, American Jewry and Trump’s GOP

Earlier this month Norway, Denmark and Switzerland did something surprising.

Norway announced that it was demanding the return of its money from the Palestinian Human Rights and Humanitarian Law Secretariat, for the latter’s funding of a Palestinian women’s group that built a youth center near Nablus named for PLO mass murderer Dalal Mughrabi.

Denmark followed, announcing it was cutting off all funding to the group.

And last week, the Swiss parliament passed a resolution directing the government to amend Swiss law to block funding of NGOs “involved in racist, antisemitic or hate incitement actions.”

For years, the Israeli government has been urging these and other European governments to stop funding such groups, to no avail. What explains their abrupt change of heart?

In two words: Donald Trump.

For years, the Obama administration quietly encouraged the Europeans to fund these groups and to ratchet up their anti-Israel positions. Doing so, the former administration believed, would coerce Israel to make concessions to the PLO.

But now, Trump and his advisers are delivering the opposite message. And, as the actions by Denmark, Norway and Switzerland show, the new message is beginning to be received.

If the US administration keeps moving forward on this trajectory, it can do far more than suspend funding for one terrorism-supporting Palestinian NGO. It can shut down the entire BDS industry before Trump finishes his current term in office.

To understand what can and ought to be done, it is first important to understand the nature of the BDS movement. Under the catchphrase BDS, two separate campaigns against Israel and against Jews are being carried out.

The first BDS campaign is a campaign of economic warfare. The focal point of that campaign is Europe. The purpose of the campaign is to harm Israel’s economy by enacting discriminatory, anti-Israel trade policies and encouraging unofficial consumer and business boycotts of Israeli firms and products.

The US Congress can end this economic war against Israel by passing laws penalizing European states for engaging in trade practices that breach the World Trade Organization treaties. The US Treasury Department can also push strongly and effectively for such an end in its trade negotiations with the EU. The Treasury Department can also investigate whether and how EU trade practices toward Israel constitute unlawful barriers to trade.

Unlike the situation in Europe, where the BDS economic war against Israel is fairly advanced, efforts in the US to mount economic boycotts of Israel hit an iceberg early on due to the swift preemptive actions taken by state legislatures.

In 2015, then-South Carolina governor Nikki Haley became the first governor to sign a law barring her state government from doing business or investing in companies that boycott Israel. Last week Kansas became the 21st US state to pass an anti-BDS law along the same lines. Last month, all 50 state governors declared opposition to BDS.

The second BDS campaign being carried out against Israel is a form of political and social warfare.

Its epicenter is US academia. Its purpose is to erode US support for Israel, by making it politically unacceptable and socially devastating to publicly voice support for Israel on college campuses and more generally in leftist circles.

As is the case with the economic BDS campaign, the best way to defeat political BDS is through state and federal government action. If state and federal governments withheld funding to universities and colleges that permit BDS groups to operate on their campuses, campus administrators, who to date have refused to lift a finger against these hate groups, would be forced into action.

If the US Education and Justice departments opened civil rights investigations against major BDS groups for antisemitic bigotry, campus administrators would finally begin banning them from their campuses.

For many Israelis, the notion that defeating BDS is a job for the US government rather than for grassroots, American Jewish activists, will come as a surprise.

When Israelis think about the BDS movement, they tend to think that the American Jewish community is the place to turn for assistance.

This is not merely incorrect.

As two studies published in the last few weeks show, the notion that Israel can look to the American Jewish community for help with anything is becoming increasingly dubious.

To be sure, there are several American Jewish groups that devote massive resources to combating BDS on campuses. But their actions are tactical.

They fight specific BDS resolutions coming to votes before student councils. They train pro-Israel students to defend Israel to their peers.

While helpful, none of these actions constitutes a serious challenge to the movement.

On a strategic level, the effective moves made to date against BDS have been initiated by Republicans.

Alan Clemmons, the South Carolina lawmaker who initiated the anti-BDS bill in his statehouse and has since gone on to spearhead the state government anti-BDS drive nationally, is a Christian Zionist.

Clemmons didn’t act out of concern for South Carolinian Jews. The Jewish community of South Carolina numbers a mere 20,000 members. The state-by-state anti-economic BDS campaign is neither the brainchild of any major Jewish group nor the product of their efforts.

So, too, to the extent that the Trump administration and the Republican-controlled Congress take action to defeat BDS on campuses and in Europe, they won’t be answering the call of their Jewish constituents. American Jews vote overwhelmingly for the increasingly anti-Israel Democratic Party. And while making up a mere 2% of the US population, American Jews contributed 50% of the donations to the Democratic Party in the 2016 elections.

This then brings us to the two studies of the American Jewish community and its future trajectory.

The first study was published by the Jewish Agency’s Jewish People Policy Institute. It analyzes the data from the 2013 Pew survey of American Jewish attitudes. The Pew survey demonstrated that the Jewish identity of American Jews is growing increasingly attenuated and superficial.

Famously, the study noted that while 19% of American Jews said that they view observance of Jewish law as an essential part of their Jewish identity, 42% said they viewed having a good sense of humor as an essential part of their Jewish identity.

The JPPI study analyzed the Pew data regarding rates of marriage and childbearing among American Jews aged 24-54. The study started with the data on intermarriage. Sixty percent of non-haredi American Jews are married to non-Jews. A mere 32% of married American Jews are raising their children as Jewish to some degree.

From there, the JPPI study considered marriage and childbirth rates in general. It works out that a mere 50% of American Jews between 24 and 54 are married. And a mere 40% of American Jews between those ages have children living with them. In other words, the majority of adult American Jews are childless.

The JPPI study tells us two important things.

First, in the coming years there will be far fewer American Jews. Second, among those who are Jewish, their Jewish identity will continue to weaken.

Clearly, it would be unwise for Israel to believe that it can depend on such a community to secure its interests in the US for the long haul.

The second study shows that not only can Israel not expect the American Jewish community to help it maintain its alliance with the US. The number of American Jews willing to spearhead anti-Israel campaigns is likely to grow in the coming years.

The second study was produced by Brand Israel, a group of public relations experts that for the past decade has been trying to change the way young Americans think about Israel. The idea was to discuss aspects of Israel that have nothing to do with the Palestinians, with an emphasis on Israel as a hi-tech power. The hope was that by branding Israel as the Start-Up Nation, leftists, who support the Palestinians, would still support Israel.

Fern Oppenheim, one of the leaders of Brand Israel, presented the conclusions of an analysis of the group’s work at the Herzliya Conference this week and discussed them with the media. It works out that the PR campaign backfired.

Far from inspiring increased support for Israel, Oppenheim argued that the hi-tech-centric branding campaign made leftist American Jews even more anti-Israel. She related that over the past decade, there has been an 18-point drop in support for Israel among US Jewish students.

To remedy the situation, which she referred to as “devastating,” Oppenheim recommended changing the conversation from hi-tech to “shared values.”

The problem with Oppenheim’s recommendation is that it ignores the problem.

Young American Jews aren’t turning against Israel because their values are different from Israeli values. By and large, they have the same values as Israeli society. And if they know anything about Israel, they know that their values aren’t in conflict with Israeli values.

Young American Jews are turning on Israel for two reasons. First, they don’t care that they are Jewish and as a consequence, see no reason to stick their necks out on Israel’s behalf.

And second, due in large part to the political BDS campaign on college campuses, supporting Israel requires them to endanger or relinquish their ideological home on the Left. Since their leftist identities are far stronger than their Jewish identities, young American Jews are joining the BDS mob in increasing numbers.

This then brings us back to BDS.

The only way to diminish the groundswell of American Jews who are becoming hostile toward Israel is to defeat the forces of political BDS on campuses. To do this, Israel should turn not to the Jewish community but to evangelical Christians, the Trump administration and the Republican-controlled Congress.

As for the American Jews, Israel needs to stop viewing the community as a resource and begin to view it as a community in crisis. To this end, the most significant contribution Israel can make to the American Jewish community – particularly to non-Orthodox American Jews – is to encourage them to make aliya. Assuming that current trends will continue, the only way non-Orthodox American Jews can have faith their grandchildren will be Jewish is for a significant number of them to make aliya.

No, this won’t appeal to all American Jews. But nothing Israel does will. Israel’s job isn’t to reach the unreachable. It is to protect its alliance with the US and to help the Jews that remain in the room. – source

So you see, Caroline Glick has discernment and is a writer of truth.  I would encourage the readers to sign up for her newsletters.

At the same time, I would encourage you to pray for this woman daily.  She needs to know that her Messiah came, but like the majority of my people, she missed the time of her visitation by God.

NASA and Population Control: What You Need to Know :: By Geri Ungurean

I have been researching all day.  A FB friend said that there was an article on how NASA is deeply involved in population control.  I needed to see this for myself, although it does make perfect sense.

NASA has satellites which are strictly for monitoring the density of population – especially in Third World countries.  Man is not at the top of the food chain as far as the Left is concerned.  Man is a hindrance to earth (the left call it “Mother Earth”)

Preserving the species of animals

As I went through article after article about “Mother Earth”, it became crystal clear that man is way down on the list of priorities for Leftist, globalist scientists. We are blamed for the extinction or imminent extinction of certain animal species.  I do believe that these people would wipe out entire populations of areas, just to preserve a bird which is on the endangered species list.

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth”  (Genesis 1: 26-28).

In that passage of Scripture, first we see that we  are made in the image of God. That alone puts us at the top – over all living creatures. Secondly, God gives Adam dominion over all animals. And then God says to be fruitful and multiply!   Do you comprehend what you just read? It is diametrically opposed to everything the Left is thinking, writing and practicing!

Just devilish!

God is concerned with the Souls of people, not preserving the Kiwi bird

When God said to be fruitful and multiply, he was not concerned about how many people would inhabit the earth. He was thinking about how many people would be saved and reconciled to Him.  He must grieve over the aborted babies worldwide. When the Democrats are in power, they help Planned Parenthood to re-open Abortion mills – especially in Africa. The more African babies slaughtered, the better for the globalists.

NASA and Population Control – The Human Impact

From earthobservatory.nasa.gov [1]

Excerpts from article:

“Completion of the human footprint map marks major progress in conservation efforts. Ruth DeFries, associate professor at the University of Maryland, College Park, said, “Each of the supporting data sets used to map the human footprint represents an enormous investment by scientists in that discipline. By bringing those data sets together, the human footprint gives an interesting overview of the regions on Earth where humans have the greatest and the least presence.”“It’s important to conserve these remaining wild places, and not solely because of moral or aesthetic values,” said Sanderson. “Preserving places that are already wild is the most practical thing to do. Fewer people, less infrastructure, less human land use, and less power lead to less human conflict.”

“I think most people feel sad about what’s happening to the natural world, and they want to make better choices,” said Sanderson. “But I also think a lot of people feel helpless about what to do. That’s why conservation organizations exist — to try to offer solutions.”

According to Sanderson, it is especially important to conserve wildlife “across the gradient of human influence” not just in wild places, but also in cities. Luckily, he can point to some success stories. “Hawk migrations over New York City had almost come to an end between the 1920s and 1940s. Now that threats from DDT and recreational hunting have been reduced, the birds are returning, and thousands of people come to the city to see them,” he said. “It’s a magnificent sight. It’s amazing.”

Obama and NASA:  A MOST Evil Alliance

BHO brought many changes to our NASA program right out of the gate. He saw no need for more manned space flights to be funded by our government. He encouraged private enterprise to take this over.

But there was one new program which BHO alerted Congress they needed to approve the $1.4 Billion for funding.  This went around in circles by our legislators. Many did not see the need for it.  The name?  ARM. That stands for Asteroid Redirect Mission.

Now remember that everything  Obama did while in power had to do with globalization of our planet.  Globalization and Population control go hand in hand.

Now let’s look at ARM from NASA……what is it about?

From nasa.gov [2]

What Is NASA’s Asteroid Redirect Mission?

NASA is developing a first-ever robotic mission to visit a large near-Earth asteroid, collect a multi-ton boulder from its surface, and redirect it into a stable orbit around the moon. Once it’s there, astronauts will explore it and return with samples in the 2020s. This Asteroid Redirect Mission (ARM) is part of NASA’s plan to advance the new technologies and spaceflight experience needed for a human mission to the Martian system in the 2030s.

NASA has identified multiple candidate asteroids and continues the search for one that could be redirected to near the moon in the 2020s. Since the announcement of the Asteroid Initiative in 2013, NASA’s Near-Earth Object Observation Program has catalogued more than 1,000 new near-Earth asteroids discovered by various search teams. Of those identified so far, four could be good candidates for ARM.

Scientists anticipate many more will be discovered over the next few years, and NASA will study their velocity, orbit, size and spin before deciding on the target asteroid for the ARM mission.NASA plans to launch the ARM robotic spacecraft at the end of this decade. The spacecraft will capture a boulder off of a large asteroid using a robotic arm. After an asteroid mass is collected, the spacecraft will redirect it to a stable orbit around the moon called a “Distant Retrograde Orbit.” Astronauts aboard NASA’s Orion spacecraft, launched from a Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, will explore the asteroid in the mid-2020s.

As I pondered this program, many red flags went up. First of all, how would this initiative enable NASA in their endeavors to get a manned space craft to Mars?

Most problematic to me is this:  If NASA is going to send astronauts to an asteroid close to earth, and gather a large chunk of the rock just to redirect it to the moon’s orbit; why couldn’t they also redirect this monstrousity to hit a targeted area of earth i.e. Africa?  I am forever reading that globalists feel that the continent of Africa needs massive population control. They could accomplish that in one fell swoop.

Thank you, President Trump

Thankfully, our new president almost immediately cut the funding for “ARM” to the dismay of the global Left.  I am so thankful that someone on Trump’s team alerted him as to what ARM was really about.

God will always intervene when man is attempting to subvert His perfect plan

 The Lord really IS in full control of our planet.  He allows events which further fulfill His prophetic plan.  And conversely, He stops events which the evil one has put into motion.

Praise God for His Goodness, his Omniscience, His Power and His Love for us!

Shalom b’Yeshua
