Pagan SUNday keepers

"On the venerable day of the Sun [SUNday] let the Magistrates and the people residing in the cities rest, and let all workshops be closed."
Edict of Constantine A.D. 321



I have yet to be shown any historical record of such a command regarding Saturn day (Saturday). It's evident to honest observers that those who foolishly continue to follow Constantine (not Christ) and keep pagan SUNday, also swallow hook, line and sinker pagan Easter and Christmas and other unclean doctrines of idolatrous men like the spiritual drunks and whores they are, inviting disaster upon our nations.

Jews helped win WWII

Re: Jews responsible for mass murder of Christians?

I don't know about Lipstadt, but Christianity is responsible for rivers of Jewish blood through the centuries.

In regard to WWII, where you say "It was Christians who fought and won WWII," I tell you, overall, some 300,000 Jewish soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines died serving in the armies of the UN in World War II; and nearly 1,500,000 Jewish servicemen served in the armies of the United Nations. Large numbers of Jewish scientists played a decisive role in developing the atom bomb, thus saving millions of American and allied lives from dying in an invasion of Japan with the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima. There were hundreds of Jewish generals and admirals in the various militarys (excerpts from How many Jewish-American soldiers were killed or wounded in action in World War 2?)


I agree Roman Catholicism is responsible for murdering Jews throughout history, as well as persecuting and murdering Sabbath-keeping Christians who reject Rome for Jerusalem, and continue their insatiable appetite for blood with current collaboration with Jews and Israelis over Jerusalem's future.

I also agree that Jews fought and/or contributed to the defeat of the Nazis, but was making a point by generally speaking when I said Christians fought and won WWII, since Deborah Lipstadt and too many other Jews make generalizations against Christians (and I didn't even mention the documented facts of Jews in Hitler's army) - sort of "answering a fool according to his folly" and putting things in perspective.

I note you didn't acknowledge or deny Jews (again, generally speaking) have been guilty of rivers of professing Christian blood throughout history with their godless isms, their perverted messianic drives and purges that have polluted the world and cursed mankind.

I hope and pray Joseph and Judah both repent of our personal and national sins and prepare to meet our God.

Tamar Yonah interviews Dr. Daisy Stern

The upcoming visit of the Pope to Israel this May, has some people worried. Are there designs to relinquish Jewish sovereignty in Israel's capital, Jerusalem, by the Church? Dr. Daisy Stern of Israel Truth Times has done extensive research and is working with the Sanhedrin to expose what she says is an attempt, with various Israeli leaders' cooperation, to hand over parts of Jerusalem to the Vatican.

Jews responsible for mass murder of Christians?

Re: More Soft Core Denial

Even while acknowledging Nazis murdered Christians, Deborah Lipstadt continues the shameful Jewish blood libel against Christians by blathering "it was Christians who were running the operation." Apparently many rightly took offense at such a hateful and murderous charge but instead of correcting her historical error, she digs herself in deeper with typical Jewish double standards: "...while they were certainly not officially acting on behalf of the Church, no Catholic was excommunicated for participating in this effort."

I'm glad Deborah Lipstadt (who has been valiant in the fight against irrational Holocaust denial) recognized the legitimate critiques of her blood libel against Christians but am sad she suppressed my historical points that deserve consideration (she failed to publish my incriminating posts on her blog), especially since she states no Catholic was excommunicated for participating in Hitler's effort against the Jews, considering no Jew has been banned by Jewish religious authorities for instigating or forging the deadly isms of a perverted messianism like Communism, Socialism, etc. that have resulted in the persecution and mass murder of millions of professing Christians.

It was Christians who fought and won WWII (and it's irrelevant to those who lost loved ones that Jews were at the top of Hitler's Hit List), Christians who hid Jews, and Christians who support the welfare state of Israel today. Instead of focusing on real or imagined Christian imperfections during WWII (why call it by a name and concept that isn't kosher? human burnt offerings aren't acceptable to God - The Holocaust isn't Kosher), let the Jews clean their own house since many Jews collaborated with the Nazis and others refused to do more, as Meir Kahane and Barry Chamish and other brave souls have testified.

Apparently Deborah Lipstadt is in hard core denial of these facts or has simply chosen to look the other way.

Family feuds

Re: British Israelite Orde Wingate

The Northern Ten-tribed Kingdom of Israel, as prophesied, migrated north and west and into the isles.

Israel in the Isles

Yes, there was infighting and wars and cruelties amongst the migrating Israelites, but that is nothing new under the sun. We also had our "civil war" in the United States and yet we're still family, aren't we?

The word "Jews" is first used in the Bible when the Northern Kingdom of Israel (allied with Syria) was at war with the Southern Kingdom of Judah.

The Anglo-Saxon-Celtic Israelites had nothing to do with "Judaism" and had long lost knowledge of their Hebrew roots and biblical responsibilities, and since they had detached themselves from the biblical God (like professing Christians today) and chose paganism, they were sent into captivity (just like our peoples will be shortly).

Israel and Judah Must Get House in Order Before King Messiah Arrives

The Germans in Germany today are predominantly descendants of ASSYRIA, not Israelites, as the Israelites sojourned there and then moved away as the Spirit led them.

German-American Israelites?

What is dreadful news to many Jews concerning the "holocaust" is that too many perished due to the hypocrisy of their leaders, the collaboration of Jews with Nazis, the rejection of warnings by both secular and religious sources to get out while they could, and had nothing to do with Joseph (who had already moved to the British Israelite isles).

What is wrong with the rabbis?

Of course, some choose to remain blind to Joseph identity today, even though this wealth of information stands before them, regardless of the overwhelming evidence from both the Bible and history that testify to the Hebrew roots, the Israelite origins, of the British peoples and the white peoples of Northwestern Europe.

Jewish double standards condemned

Re: Analysis: Struggles for tourists in the Holy Land
Unfortunately, there are millions of Christians who see the Israelis primarily as people that must be converted to Christianity "for their own good" or to facilitate the playing out of the "end times" of Christianity.
Such people are regarded as a royal pain in the ass by Jews in general and by Israelis in particular.
I believe that there are laws on the books in Israel against proselytizing and that is why such people are denied entry.
Try going to Saudi Arabia with the idea of converting the Muslims there to Christianity. See how far you get.


There are millions of Jews in their shameful self-imposed exile, far away from the Jewish homeland of Israel, who see non-Jews primarily as people that must be converted to their many godless isms, their perverted forms of messianism (since they're either apostate Jews or simply bankrupt Jews seeking some form of adulterated spirituality), cursing our professing Christian countries.

Many people find Jewish/Israeli complaints about Christian proselytising rather hypocritical and irritating, considering those same sincere Christians (who I actually disagree with on many points) are responsible in large part for the United States' continued support of Israel. Apparently Israeli Jews want all the CASH they can possibly get from Christians, but they don't want to hear about their Christianity that has inspired such generosity.

There are no laws in Israel against Christian proselytizing, as every attempt to pass such legislation has failed. There exists an understanding between the Mormons and Israel concerning this issue (so they could build their place on Mount Scopus), but it isn't binding on others.

Try going to Saudi Arabia with the idea of converting the Muslims to Socialism, Communism, femi-Nazism, pornography, gay rights, ad nauseum and see how far you get.

Christians Against Proselytizing Among Israel?

December 15, 2005

CAPAI: Christians Against Proselytizing Among Israel

CAPAI -- Christians Against Proselytizing Among Israel -- is an organization headed by Moshe-Mordechai van Zuiden. Is there an equivalent organization of Jews against Jewish proselytizing among Christians? I doubt it.

I am opposed to anybody - Jew, Israelite or Gentile - becoming a convert to the counterfeit Christianity of "traditional Churchianity." Such popular error misrepresents true Christianity with its Babylonian mystery religion dressed up in the drag of "Christianity."

True Christianity, as taught by Herbert W. Armstrong, merely announces the soon coming Kingdom of God to be established by King Messiah, Yeshua. We don't seek converts or believe it's our responsibility to "save" the world. If God wants to save the world, it will be saved. There's no contest between God and the devil, contrary to traditional myths.

I encourage Moshe-Mordechai van Zuiden and others to call upon Jews not to be hypocrites against "Christian" proselytizing while remaining in a self-imposed exile, far away from the Jewish homeland, and having the chutzpah to preach against Jesus in such professing countries, as I've seen on too many forums. Mind you, these forums I refer to were not legitimate Jewish responses to efforts to convert them.

Jews Should Follow Judaism to Israel!
May faithful Jews not confuse ersatz New York with Eretz Yisrael. Israel needs American Jews and American Jews need Israel! Such a great influx of American Jews into Eretz Israel could help sweep away the suicidal peace process and restore Israel to its right mind.

A Jewish Homeland
Weren't the Jews prophesied to return to Israel? Are the Jews ethnic Jews or merely converts? How should Israel treat their resident Arabs? Why does the world focus on Jerusalem for all the wrong reasons?

Mounting Israeli Frustration Over Lack of Missile Defense

Mounting Israeli Frustration Over Lack of Missile Defense
by Robert Ivker
Palestinian Rocket Report
March 26, 2009


The State of Israel is targeted by the largest number of rockets and ballistic missiles in the world, yet it remains curiously and dangerously unprotected. Hamas has fired more than 4,500 projectiles at the Jewish state since 2001. Hezbollah fired more than 4,000 rockets at Israel in 2006, and has since rearmed with more than 20,000 rockets, mostly supplied by Iran. The Mullahs, for their part, have upped the number of Shahab-3 missiles in their arsenal from roughly 30 at the start of 2008 to more than 100 today. Syria, too, threatens Israel with at least 1,000 Scud-C missiles, not to mention other dangerous varieties with more dangerous payloads.

How can Israel defend itself against this potential aerial onslaught? Short of taking out caches of rockets with air raids and running the risk of a reprisal, Israel must ulrimately rely on missile defense — also known as active defense in military circles— to shoot down incoming rockets, mortars and missiles before they hit their intended target on the ground.

For years, military experts have raised concerns over Israel's lack of commitment to this defensive tactic. In a recently published report, the Comptroller of the State of Israel, Micha Lindenstraus, cited severe deficiencies in nearly every aspect of Israel's missile defense program–everything from its funding to its research and development components. Now, as Hamas rearms after Operation Cast Lead, the Israeli public is growing increasingly uneasy over the vulnerability to attack.

From Arrow to Iron Dome
Presently, the Arrow missile defense system is Israel's only functioning active defense system, designed to defend against long-range missiles, such as those fired from Iran. A joint U.S.-Israel project, Arrow has been upgraded over the years and is seen in Israel as a success story. Unfortunately, it offers no protection against short range Katyushas, Qassam rockets, and mortars fired from the Gaza Strip (Hamas) or southern Lebanon (Hezbollah). In addition, attempts to hit intermediate rockets (from Lebanon or Syria) with the Arrow system would likely deplete the ammunition reserved for defense against the aforementioned longer-range projectiles.

Two other missile defense systems designed to fill in the gaps — Iron Dome and David's Sling — are now in development. Iron Dome, developed entirely in Israel (by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems), is designed to mitigate the dangers of short-range attacks, such as those coming from Hamas in Gaza. However, Iron Dome suffers from a lack of funding and what some in Israel perceive as a lack of commitment by the defense establishment. Its roll out date has been pushed back repeatedly.

David's Sling, a joint project of Israel (Rafael) and the United States (Raytheon), is seen as the answer to the mid-range rockets (45 to 150 miles). However, U.S. experts don't envision David's Sling as being operational for years.

"It will be a great system once deployed, but that's still some ways off," said Avi Schnurr, Executive Director of the Israel Missile Defense Association (IMDA), a nongovernmental organization, referring to David's Sling.

"Once they finish developing it, it has to go into testing. Once they finish testing, they then go into production. Once production is completed, then these missile defense systems are deployed," Schnurr said in an interview with Palestinian Rocket Report.

The Other Israel Lobby
Thanks to Schnurr and his colleagues at IMDA, the Israeli public is increasingly aware of the slow timeline involved in defending against Hamas and Hezbollah rockets. This organization is playing an ever-important role in a sophisticated and embattled society that knows almost too much about traditional military tactics and strategies. The Israeli public has much to learn about the growing field of missile defense.

Prior to moving to Israel in 2005, Schnurr worked at Northrop Grumman and has given briefings to Congress, the White House, and NATO. He has since joined forces with several other missile defense experts— political and military leaders, past and present— to make the case for a faster roll-out of missile defense technologies to defend Israel in the coming rocket wars.

Interestingly, IMDA does not fault the government. Rather, it points out that history is replete with examples of decision-makers who failed to find solutions to projected problems. "A failure of imagination," is how one military expert put it.

It is clear that more rocket attacks are in Israel's future. Past clashes with Hamas and Hezbollah indicate that Israel cannot prevent all rocket attacks, even with pre-emptive strikes. An active defense is needed. As Schnurr states simply, "You cannot play soccer without a goalie."

Immediate Solutions
Yet, Israel continues to lack a goalie. Critics, including Israel's comptroller, claim that much of the problem stems from Israel's cumbersome bureaucracy. However, industry experts also claim that the slow rollouts are an issue of "blue and white;" Israel may be determined to wait for its own systems, rather than procuring ready-made systems made by other countries.

Industry experts, both in this country and in Israel, believe that Israel need not remain unprotected. The following steps could be taken immediately to defend against incoming missiles:

Purchase several Phalanx systems. Originally used on the decks of U.S. aircraft carriers to serve as a last line of defense against incoming missiles, the U.S. Army has successfully deployed the Phalanx system for years to protect the Green Zone in Iraq and other sensitive areas. If the Israelis were to purchase this system, they could defend key military installations and small communities from mortars and Qassam rockets. Upgrade Israel's current medium range system. The Israelis currently have the Raytheon-made PAC-2 system to mitigate the mid-range threat. PAC-2 became famous in military circles during Gulf War I, when Iraqi President Saddam Hussein launched Scud missiles into Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Israel. PAC-2 helped these U.S. allies shoot down approximately 40% of the Iraqi projectiles fired. Many other countries have since acquired the upgraded version of this system —the PAC-3. Israel has not, leaving it with outdated hardware and vulnerabilities that its enemies can exploit.Make missile defense a political issue. With the help of IMDA, the Israeli public can hold the incoming Knesset accountable for making verifiable progress on missile defense. The Knesset, under the leadership of incoming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has an opportunity to shore up an Israeli vulnerability that has been exposed for too long.

Analysis: Struggles for tourists in the Holy Land

Analysis: Struggles for tourists in the Holy Land

Israel joined the World Tourism Organization in 1975. One of the purposes of the WTO is to encourage tourism and free travel from country to country. The Global Code of Ethics for Tourism, enacted by the WTO in 2001 and featured in Hebrew on the Israeli Ministry of Tourism's website, explicitly states (Article 2) that travel for religious purposes, health reasons, as well as education, cultural and linguistic exchanges are particularly beneficial forms of tourism.

Article 8 of the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism deals with matters concerning access to places of transit, tourist attractions, cultural sites, and to tourist accommodations, “without being subject to excessive formalities or discrimination.”

The Israeli Ministry of Tourism requires that every entity involved with tourism in Israel adopt the regulations of this code in every area of activity. Unfortunately, recent events demonstrate that this is not always implemented.

In 2005, Mr. Sam Nadler landed at Ben Gurion Airport and entered Israel as a tourist. Mr. Nadler is a Messianic Jew and the founder of Word of Messiah Ministries. These facts were made known to the Ministry of Interior in Israel, which immediately blacklisted Mr. Nadler as a persona non grata. Upon arrival, Mr. Nadler was detained at the airport and was told that he would be deported on the next flight back to the United Sates. He was permitted entry into Israel only after an extensive legal and diplomatic struggle.

In July 2008, seven tourists from Canada who belong to the Hutterite Community landed at Ben Gurion Airport and entered Israel as tourists.

Hutterites are a communal branch of Anabaptists who, like the Amish and Mennonites, trace their roots to the reformation of the 16th century. The Hutterites are characterized by their pacifism and secluded communal lifestyles.

Apparently due to their unique appearance, this group was detained by Israeli border control for several hours and was interrogated concerning the purpose of their visit to Israel. Using language common to their community, but outdated to most other Christians, the Hutterites explained to the border control officers that they were “on a mission.” They were promptly deported back to Canada on the grounds they intended to engage in “missionary activity” while in Israel.

In December 2008, the director of the US Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations, Mr. Jamie Cowen and his wife were detained at Ben Gurion Airport by Interior Ministry officials amid allegations that he is involved in ongoing “illegal” Christian missionary activity.

In reality, the Cowens entered Israel in order to visit their two daughters, one of whom is an Israeli citizen. Their other daughter is in the process of obtaining Israeli citizenship after winning a Supreme Court decision.

But border officials refused to permit the Cowens entry into Israel due to missionary concerns. Finally, after eight hours of detention, Mr. and Mrs. Cowen were permitted entry into Israel, albeit only after signing a degrading declaration that they would not be involved in missionary activity during their visit.

The three aforementioned examples prove without a doubt that there is blatant disregard by the Ministry of Interior officials and Israeli border control for The Global Code of Ethics for Tourism. Furthermore, these recent events are more than just random incidents or coincidences. The actions by the Ministry of Interior represent a deliberate, direct and real policy which contradicts the Ministry of Tourism's decision to adopt the regulations of the code of ethics in every area of activity.

This policy of the Ministry of Interior not only creates violations of civil rights and international agreements, which Israel has ratified, it also harms Israel's financial state. There is no doubt that a huge part of the Israeli tourism industry is comprised of Christian pilgrims who commonly view their visit to Israel as a “mission.”

In Israel, a nation that is obligated to thoroughly check all the people who enter its borders due to the security situation, it would seem preferable to invest in authentic security inspections rather than petty religious investigations. These investigations are ironically carried out against those who love Israel and simply desire to bless her.

Finally, it must be stressed that the office responsible for this problem is the Ministry of Interior, and the Ministry of Interior does not properly reflect the nation of Israel. Unlike other government offices in Israel, it has become notorious for its many administrative deficiencies.

It is a pity that so many times the Israeli courts must serve as the Ministry of Interior's back office, as they are required to resolve such issues in order to preserve democracy in the only democratic state in the Middle East.

This Christian Zionist, who has been to Israel 12 times and served on 8 kibbutzim and studied Hebrew, was unjustly deported for highlighting the plight of the Temple Mount suffering under Nazi Muslim occupation, where the religious rights of Jews and Christians are trampled daily, in an article published in Jerusalem and read throughout Israel (and now the world).

During my attempt to return that year, I was detained and deported. This is how Israel treats those who love Jews and the Promised Land of Israel while kissing their enemies and pretending they're making peace.

To the esteemed heads of state,

The LORD has sworn by His right hand, and by the arm of His strength: Surely I will no more give thy corn to be food for thy enemies; and the sons of strangers shall not drink thy wine, for which thou hast laboured.”
Isaiah 62:6-8

Regarding the upcoming visit of the Pope
During the Lag B’Omer season, Pope Benedict XVI is expected to visit the holy sites of his religion and to put forward a series of agreements between the Vatican and the State of Israel.

We would like to call your attention to the Sanhedrin’s stance on this subject.
The State of Israel grants freedom of worship to every religion except the Jews on their most sanctified site, the Temple Mount: there, they are granted neither freedom of prayer nor minimal freedom of religion. The State of Israel thus contradicts the purpose for which it was established and undermines its own foundations.

In contrast the State of Israel makes special efforts to transfer its national, religious, and spiritual assets to the sons of strangers.

For many years negotiations and contacts to reach agreements have been conducted regarding what the Catholic Church sees as its property or desires for itself, whether within previous confines such as Mt. Zion or within the Old City, the Kinneret, and other places. Those who initiated the concept of the “Holy Basin” principally intend to remov exclusive Jewish sovereignty from the Temple Mount and the Old City and in effect, aim at the total removal of Jewish sovereignty.

We expect you to be particularly watchful regarding Jerusalem as Passover approaches “lest our right hand forget its skill”.

The government of Israel, as a Jewish government, must heighten awareness of the freedom of the Jewish people more than ever on the holiday of Passover.

The State of Israel is also subject to the deed of ownership – the Bible - according to which it claimed ownership of the land at its very establishment. Therefore the government must actualize Jewish sovereignty in Jerusalem, the city of God, the royal city, capital of Israel, heart of the world, and it must guarantee the right of worship and prayer of Jews on the Temple Mount and realize the obligation of Jews to bring the Passover sacrifice on the 14th of Nissan on the eve of Passover, this year and every year. The Passover sacrifice redeems Israel from spiritual excommunication and distinguishes between Israel and the nations [Ex. 12: 27,43], and it is a shield and protection against all of the unfounded demands of foreign nations to take possession of the land of Israel along with us [Ex. 13]

It should be noted that the third President of the State of Israel, the late Zalman Shazar, found the courage in 5723[1963] when Pope Pius IV visited Israel to read him the verse from the Prophet Micha, chapter 4: “For let all the peoples walk each one in the name of its god, but we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever”. Israel’s Chief Rabbis at that time protected the honor of Israel and refused to meet the pope.

In 5760 [2000] Pope John Paul II visited Jerusalem. During his visits attempts were made by various agents to remove Israeli sovereignty from the Temple Mount, in an effort to demonstrate the sovereignty of a foreign rule and to allow the visit to take place without the presence of any representative of Israel on the holiest site of Judaism. These attempts failed because of vigorous public objections.

The Rabbi of the Holy Sites and of the Kotel, Rav Shmuel Rabinovitz, has demonstrated commendable behavior in refusing to stop Jewish prayer at the Kotel during the present Pope’s visit, which is scheduled for Lag B’Omer.

The speedy reconciliation with the Pope after a series of unfortunate statements that he made against us does no honor to the People of Israel. All of the political and Torah authorities must do whatever they can to prevent the signing or holding of any agreement that deviates from the spirit of this document and must express their disapproval at the Catholic Restorationist trends whose aim is to nullify the sovereign power of the State of Israel and the status of the Jewish People, the People of Israel in the Land of Israel, its holy land.

Please clarify your position to your people, to the State, and to the entire world.
Show respect for the God of your forefathers, your city, and your nation and do not act grovel submissively before foreigners and disparage the stature of the people of Israel.

In these difficult days we face a danger from Iran and the entire region working together with the seventy nations of the world, pushing us to continue to retreat. This only diminishes Jews, the nation, and the State of Israel and does irreversible damage to our deterrent power.
“Let all of the nations of the world see that My name is called upon you, and they shall fear you” .

Ever since the liberation of Jerusalem as a unified city by the Israeli Defense Forces in 5727 [1967] the nations and religions of the world have not reconciled themselves to the sovereignty and restoration of the Jewish people in their eternal capital where the Temple will eventually be rebuilt to serve the God of Israel, God of the world, and a king of Israel will again rule, a descendant of King David.

Especially ever since the Oslo Accords in 5753 [1993], the Vatican acting as a state with theological views, signed a series of secret documents1 with various agents in the State of Israel - behind the back of the citizens – These agents are totally devoid of any respect for the spiritual and diplomatic status of the Jewish people, and their main goal is to transfer Jewish national assets in Jerusalem to the hands of foreigners and to promote measures that will undermine the religious and political ownership of the People of Israel over their holy sites: first and foremost, the Temple Mount, the Kotel, and the entire Old City of Jerusalem, transferring them to the Vatican and international agents, which will inevitable seize them territorially from the State of Israel . Thus, too, is the plan for other sites in our holy land.

The Beit Din of the Sanhedrin declares that the representatives of the State of Israel may represent the Jewish People as long as they are acting as representatives of the Jewish People over history in accordance with its tradition and laws. Insofar as this is not the case, their representation is not legitimate.

These representatives, even if they are acting in the manner of the kings of Judah Hezekiah and Zedekiah who showed the treasures of the Holy Temple to the agents of foreign powers, are not authorized to transfer ownership or absolute tenancy to lands and buildings in the Land of Israel to any foreign religious or political agent.

Therefore all of the documents which were drawn up by such representatives with the Vatican as a theological and diplomatic agents in opposition to the spiritual essence of the People of Israel are void. All of the agreements with the Vatican which have been made or will be made in this spirit are null and void and the Vatican should not believe that they will retain them. The Vatican as the head of all Christian church is responsible for the legacy of Rome which occupied Jerusalem, dispossessed its Jews, and destroyed their land. All of the Christian churches currently standing in Jerusalem are the product of the destruction of the Jewish people, their dispossession and exile to the Christian exile which Christianity glorifies in as being everlasting. This is in addition to the priceless treasures, both material and spiritual, belonging to the Jews which lie in the cellars of the Vatican, and the countless synagogues all over the world which were confiscated by the Vatican and its representatives and never returned to their rightful owners.
Anyone who negotiates and signs any agreement to change the status of the State of Israel in its holy sites in Jerusalem and the Land of Israel is raising his hand against the Torah, against his own faith, his people, his land, against his own homeland and against the home of his fathers.

There is a strict prohibition against approving any agreement that transfers state ownership to foreigners, and this has been set forth in the criminal code of the State of Israel.

Continuing to seek favor in the eyes of the Church by making illegal agreements might end, God forbid, in devastating religious wars all over the world.

Warning against Vatican-Israeli collaboration

Warning Issued Not to Sign With Vatican
by Hillel Fendel

Pope Benedictus XVI is scheduled to arrive in Israel six weeks from now, and concern is growing over possibly irreversible Israeli concessions to the Church.

For more than ten years, Israel and the Vatican have been negotiating a diplomatic agreement regarding their tax dispute over Catholic Church properties in Israel, as well as other issues over which they disagree. Though public details are sparse to nil, Foreign Ministry officials say major progress has been made – leading many to fear that the Church will be granted a political and religious foothold in the Holy Land.

Though Church officials hope the agreement will be completed before the Pope’s arrival in May, this is not certain. The Foreign Ministry’s Bahij Mansour, who heads its religious affairs section, said two weeks ago, "We are 85-90% there.”

Mansour also said that most issues still in dispute would be resolved in a meeting in April. Different reports say the meeting will take place either April 7 or April 23 - before and after Passover, respectively - and is to involve relatively high-level officials from both the Vatican and Israel’s Foreign Ministry.

The Sanhedrin, a body of 71 rabbis that is attempting to renew the ancient tradition of Judaism’s most authoritative court, has written a public letter to Israel’s leading officials, warning that any agreement regarding the transfer of national, historic, and/or religious Jewish assets to the Catholic Church will be null and void and will not be recognized by Jewish authorities. ...more

U.S. Christians back Israel with petition

Re: U.S. Christians back Israel with petition

Speaking of Christian Zionist friends of Israel…

British Israelite Orde Wingate

prayers and thoughts are much appreciated but something more visible and audible would be even nicer - Yamit


Why are you preaching against Christian-Zionists rather than to your fellow Jews (who they often put to shame with their love for Israel)?

Jews Don’t Follow Judaism
Why do Jews prefer to remain in a self-imposed exile? Doesn’t Judaism (not just evangelical “Christianity”) teach Jews belong in the Promised Land of Israel? Isn’t it the Jewish Homeland?

Judaism is not a religion. Judaism has a religious component but does not define Who is a Jew. - Yamit


Joseph isn’t Jewish!

Israel and Judah Must Get House in Order Before King Messiah Arrives
According to the rabbis, the “Lost Ten Tribes” are for all intents and purposes “Gentiles.” This information constitutes further proof that the “Lost Ten Tribes” are not those diverse claimants (African, Indians, Burmese) who maintain remnants of Judaism from somebody’s former conversion or contact with the religion of Judaism.

Not All Twelve Tribes of Israel are Jewish?
Some, in clear contradiction of the Holy Bible, pretend that all Twelve Tribes of Israel are Jewish. Such woefully ignorant or deceptive people deny the biblical distinctions between the 12 Tribes and pretend there’s only one tribe: Judah.

PREFACE

Quotes:

“My rebbe once said: everyone thinks of Esav as a barbarian in loin cloth carrying a club a la caveman, a bloodthirsty monster... but really Esav was able to cleverly disguise his evil in the cloak of respectability: he was a cultured and well-mannered rogue; the perfect depiction is of a proper British lord, smooth and polite, ever the image of civility and proper etiquette, the perfect gentleman one never suspects to be a sinister, fire breathing dragon...and therefore one never sees the knife coming in to stab you in the back until it is much too late.”

"In his sixteenth century treatise entitled, "The Prince," Niccolo Machiavelli wrote those words advising his prince of the "virtues" he must exercise in ruling his kingdom:

“even though on the inside he is able to scheme, he should appear to him who sees and hears him altogether merciful, faithful, humane, upright and religious."

(Michael Franzese, Newsmax)

Summary:

In this paper I describe the history of the secret agreements between Israel and the Vatican, how the Vatican manipulated and deceived the Jews into entering into these negotiations, how it interfered with the political process in Israel in order to gain sovereignty over Land in Israel it considers belongs to the Church; how these secret deals went on behind the back of the Jewish People and are about to be finalized before the visit of Benedict XVI to Israel; the consequences of finalizing the agreement - internationalization of Jerusalem, abandonment of Jewish sovereignty over its Divine inheritance to the Catholic Church, and permanent establishment of the Holy German Empire with the pope at its helm in Jerusalem; as well as the consequences of refusing to sign the final papers - worldwide, raging anti-Semitism, and loss of diplomatic relations with the Vatican.

I also urge the Jewish People to force the Israeli government to REFUSE TO SIGN the papers, leave the lands of the Diaspora urgently, and come to Israel before all hell breaks loose for Jews all over the world.

1. INTRODUCTION

Back in 2006, I wrote an essay called “THE SECRET MACHINATIONS OF THE VATICAN AND ITS ALLIES IN ISRAEL, 2006”, about the Vatican and the traitors among us, and the Catholic Church’s attempt to deprive the Jewish People of its rightful inheritance and historical homeland, Eretz Yisrael [Land of Israel], - in particular the desire to snatch away our 3000 year old capital, Jerusalem. Even though I had gathered quite a bit of information for my essay then, I am afraid the total picture escaped me at the time. Now, however, after a lot more reading, investigation ,and in-depth analysis, I can with certainty share some shocking conclusions that are not obvious at first glance, and which most serious writers about this topic have apparently missed as well.

The way I arrived at these conclusions is by carefully checking the TIMELINE of various historical developments reported since 1990. The sources for these events are very disparate, and so, unless one goes and searches very carefully , the threads linking these events are not at all evident. Once one connects the dots, however, the picture that starts to emerge is quite clear, and very alarming, to say the least.

In order to really understand the total picture, make sure to read the article just mentioned, THE SECRET MACHINATIONS OF THE VATICAN AND ITS ALLIES IN ISRAEL, 2006: it will give you essential information, and a background on the players in this saga. I will not go over those details again, as time is of the essence.

The article can be found on my blog, ISRAEL TRUTH TIMES, at the link:

http://israeltruthtimes.blogspot.com/

So let me begin, but not before thanking the unwitting contributors to this paper, who are listed in the extensive bibliography at the end of this text.

Thank you to all of you, even the ones who certainly would have preferred NOT to contribute to this article!

2. HOW IT ALL BEGAN

Since the time of the Crusades, the Vatican had entrusted the CUSTODY of the HOLY LAND to the Franciscan Order in Jerusalem. Their function, essentially, consisted of helping the local Catholic population, as well as of watching over the properties the Church considered hers.

Now of course, let us not forget HOW those properties came about to belong to the Church in the first place: after the SACKING OF JERUSALEM BY ROME, which happened by PURE FORCE , BRUTALITY, AND UNSPEAKABLE HORRORS inflicted on the JEWISH POPULATION OF ISRAEL, the likes of which history has scant comparison for, AND AFTER ROBBING THE JEWISH PEOPLE OF ALL ITS POSSESSIONS, - the depiction of which is found to this day on the ARCH OF TITUS IN ROME, - and following the subsequent desolation of Judea, Samaria and all of the Land of Israel, various rulers assumed ownership of the Land, and felt free to trade in it as though it belonged to them, which of course it did not. STOLEN PROPERTY CANNOT BE TRADED AT WILL. TITLE TO STOLEN PROPERTY SOLD BY A THIEF IS INVALID AND ILLEGAL NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT. For example, take Madoff’s investors: even though they unwittingly, innocently and unknowingly came to possess stolen goods, they nevertheless have to return the loot. So much cannot be stated of the Catholic Church, which knew perfectly well that the goods and real estate in Jerusalem , Judea, the Galilee, etc, were STOLEN PROPERTY, yet still claimed, and claims, ownership for it all even after 2000 years . ESAV [Esau] WILL NOT WILLINGLY RETURN THE BLESSING OF ERETZ YISRAEL [Land of Israel] TO JACOB. REMEMBER, ROME IS ESAV - and I would venture to add, ROME HAS PROVEN BY ITS BEHAVIOR THAT IT IS AMALEK AS WELL.

In addition, let us not forget the brutality and massacres inflicted by the Crusaders on the local Jewish population.

Still, to simplify things , let’s say that the Franciscans were responsible for watching over the properties claimed by the Church as its own in the Holy Land, Eretz Yisrael.

Now AFTER THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE OF ISRAEL IN 1948, the Church started worrying about its possessions. Specially since 1967 and the RETURN OF AM ISRAEL TO ITS SACRED INHERITANCE, in particular to HAR HABAYIT [Temple Mount] AND ALL OF JERUSALEM, the Vatican became more and more concerned: not only was JEWISH SOVEREIGNTY over Jerusalem A SLAP IN THE FACE OF CATHOLICISM, the Vatican was also worried about ownership and political sovereignty, with just reason; so it devised a very detailed, sly and elaborate plan to recoup its sovereignty over Jerusalem and the rest of Israel. Not only that, but it decided that JERUSALEM HAD TO BE INTERNATIONALIZED. In addition to that, the ancient dreams of revival of the Holy Roman Empire Of Charlemagne with its seat in Jerusalem never died, as a matter of fact, are alive as ever in this pope’s mind. TO SUPPLANT JUDAISM AND MAKE THE POPE THE SUPREME RELIGIOUS AND TEMPORAL POWER OF THE RENEWED HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE IS THE GOAL. For this, I will refer you to the end of this essay, which has a lot of links, quotes, and information. Be ready for some long and good reading!

How did Rome go about doing this?

This is where deception comes in big time:

On the one hand, the Church, with its prelates, bishops, cardinals, popes, and its CANON LAW, all of a sudden became a big DEVOTEE OF INTERNATIONAL LAW AND INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS. Imagine for a minute a CHIEF RABBI who, instead of delving into HALACHAH [Jewish religious law], all of a sudden CLAIMS SECULAR LAW as the supreme rule of the land: wouldn‘t you think something is awfully fishy here? Of course, it is.

And how is that fishy in the pope‘s case?

Because, as the Custodian of the Holy Land claims in a recent article, THE WHOLE THING IS NOTHING BUT A SHAM, A TOOL FOR THE VATICAN TO OBTAIN, VIA INTERNATIONAL LAW, WHAT IT CANNOT OBTAIN OTHERWISE.

In addition, the Church, this ever combative and dictatorial political entity, responsible for the killing and murder of countless MILLIONS OF JEWS, PROTESTANTS, and other UNDESIRABLE persons, suddenly becomes THE VOICE OF LOVE, PEACE AND REASON:

WE LOVE EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY IS OUR FRIEND, WE HAVE NO ENEMIES, ALL WE WANT IS PEACEFUL RESOLUTION OF INTERNATIONAL CONFLICTS, USING INTERNATIONAL LAW AND U.N. RESOLUTIONS, WE SHUN FUNDAMENTALISM, WE EMBRACE ECUMENISM.

THE WHOLE THING IS A CON JOB by a very sly and deceitful entity, designed to ENSNARE UNSUSPECTING JEWS, RABBIS, AND THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT INTO RELEASING ERETZ YISRAEL [Land of Israel] TO THE VATICAN. It is similar to the Fable de la Fontaine, Le CORBEAU ET LE RENARD:

http://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Le_Corbeau_et_le_Renard

Le Corbeau et le Renard

Maître Corbeau, sur un arbre perché,
Tenait en son bec un fromage.
Maître Renard, par l’odeur alléché,
Lui tint à peu près ce langage :
« Hé ! bonjour, Monsieur du Corbeau.
Que vous êtes joli ! que vous me semblez beau !
Sans mentir, si votre ramage
Se rapporte à votre plumage,
Vous êtes le Phénix des hôtes de ces bois. »
À ces mots le Corbeau ne se sent pas de joie :
Et pour montrer sa belle voix,
Il ouvre un large bec, laisse tomber sa proie.
Le Renard s’en saisit, et dit : « Mon bon Monsieur,
Apprenez que tout flatteur
Vit aux dépens de celui qui l’écoute.
Cette leçon vaut bien un fromage, sans doute. »
Le Corbeau honteux et confus,
Jura, mais un peu tard, qu’on ne l’y prendrait plus.

I hope you understand French.

UNFORTUNATELY THE JEWS FELL FOR the deception.

So let’s see what the PLOT is all about. Once we know the PLOT OF THE FOX -(“le renard”) , i.e. the VATICAN, LET’S NOT ALLOW THE CHEESE, (“le fromage”) , i.e. JERUSALEM, TO FALL FROM OUR COLLECTIVE BEAK.

3.THE PLOT

Until the creation of the State of Israel in 1948, the Catholic Church , in 2000 years of torture, antisemitism, Inquisitions, Holocaust, pogroms, had never shown the slightest love, concern for, or interest in the Jewish People. On the contrary, according to Catholic theology and doctrine, Jews were singled out for eternal damnation and exile from their Land for the crime of “DEICIDE” , killing "god", and deserved the eternal opprobrium and punishment meted out by the “faithful”.

But now, with Church properties in Jewish hands, and the Jews back in at least part of the Holy Land, the Church had to tread carefully: on one hand the theological contradiction was insufferable , on the other hand properties once in Catholic hands were all of a sudden at the mercy of the Jews. So the Church “FOUND RELIGION”. In 1965, pope Paul VI drafted the revolutionary Vatican document NOSTRA AETATE,

http://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/documents/vat-ii_decl_19651028_nostra-aetate_en.html

which speaks for itself. Please read it. In short, it advocates tolerance for other religions, in particular other Christian branches, Judaism and Islam. It also recommends DIALOGUE with other religions and understanding, in short, ecumenism, and the rejection of antisemitism as well as the accusation of deicide. You have to understand that this is an absolute tsunami , considering the traditional “DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH” ( which the current pope Benedict XVI, as past CHIEF INQUISITOR, secretly supports despite his denials to the contrary - proof later)

There might have been a true element of remorse among some clergy after the Holocaust, we have to give them credit; still, this new approach has to be seen in the context of subsequent developments. After the Six Day War of 1967 and the unexpected victory of Israel over its enemies, Vatican worry obviously increased dramatically. Already in 1970, a commission was formed in the Vatican, and a special department created in 1974, with the express goal of reaching out to DIASPORA Jews, cynically playing on Jewish feelings of trauma and devastation from the Holocaust, and offering Jews rejection of anti-semitism, a chance for DIALOGUE through the institution of the INTERNATIONAL CATHOLIC JEWISH LIAISON COMMITTEE -ILC, and POSSIBLE RECOGNITION OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL, apparently “for free” at the beginning: THE CHURCH ACTED AS THOUGH IT HAD DONE TESHUVAH, CHANGED ITS SPOTS, AND SUDDENLY BECOME SAINTLY, WHEN IN FACT THOSE ILC MEETINGS WERE ALL PART OF A CALCULATED MACHIAVELLIAN PLOT.

More and more meetings took place, and the INTRIGUE PROGRESSED in earnest from 1990 on: that is when the plot thickens.

Please read the links provided at the end of the article: you will see that this whole DIALOGUE AND PEACE CHARADE was STRICTLY A CATHOLIC INITIATIVE, the Jews being wooed, wined, and dined, and naïvely believing the claims of the Church delegates in this “interfaith dialogue“, except for a few ”Jews“ such as Edgar Bronfman of the World Jewish Congress, who acted as go-between, meeting the Catholics in the context of DIASPORA/VATICAN RELATIONS, while at the same time interfering in the ISRAELI political process.

EDGAR BRONFMAN is in a league with Yossi Beilin and Shimon Peres: THEY ALL ACTED AS AGENTS FOR THE VATICAN WHILE APPEARING TO WORK FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE JEWS!!!

It is very interesting to watch the progression of the topics discussed during the various meetings taking place : starting with "TESHUVAH" for the Church’s role in the Holocaust and before; while discussing easy topics such as common family values; then, AFTER 15 whole years of GAINING JEWISH CONFIDENCE, first approaching the subject of LAND and Church properties in Israel!

In order to fulfill these goals, the Church also actively worked in the international sphere, becoming active in PEACE INITIATIVES, such as the Madrid Conference in 1991 - see the letters the pope wrote to Bush and Gorbachev, the “apparent” organizers of the conference. It is noteworthy that the Vatican, despite claiming to NOT interfere with territorial and political issues, in fact CONSTANTLY INTERFERES and intervenes, through intrigue, letters, pressure on political leaders, etc.

At the same time, in the SUMMER OF 1991 , even BEFORE THE LABOR PARTY WAS IN POWER, and before the Madrid Conference, the Church ALREADY APPROACHED YOSSI BEILIN, via the MESHUMAD ISRAELI FR. DAVID YAEGER, to start negotiations about Jerusalem; according to Yossi Beilin himself, the only thing that REALLY INTERESTED the Church was PROPERTIES, LAND, THINGS, while ISRAEL WANTED RECOGNITION - and while the DIASPORA JEWS WANTED FREEDOM FROM PERSECUTION.

HONESTLY, the Church behaved like a woman MARRYING FOR MONEY!

At any rate, by the time election time came in Israel, the VATICAN ALREADY HAD A WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH YOSSI BEILIN. Now do you understand the deception involved? Most deceptively, a ILC CONFERENCE TOOK PLACE IN BALTIMORE IN 1992, in which the head of the Jewish delegation, “happened “ to be EDGAR BRONFMAN (CFR member) , who simultaneously ’happened” to INTERFERE IN THE ISRAELI ELECTIONS, BY ARRANGING MEETINGS BETWEEN YOSSI BEILIN AND ARAFAT’S MEN , TO PROMISE THE PLO SOME SORT OF A STATE IN “Palestine” in EXCHANGE FOR THE ARAB VOTE FOR THE LABOR PARTY IN ISRAEL! In effect, BRONFMAN, AS AGENT OF THE VATICAN, and acting as a go-between, ACTIVELY INTERFERED IN THE ISRAELI ELECTION PROCESS AND HELPED ELECT YITZHAK RABIN AND SHIMON PERES! And the whole purpose of this choice was so that the transfer of Jerusalem and other properties to the Church could proceed!

At the same time, cruelly playing on Jewish suffering, and in the context of “TESHUVAH’ for the expulsion from Spain 500 years earlier, at that Baltimore conference with the DIASPORA JEWS, the Vatican became more demanding , and for the first time broached the subject of Catholic properties in Israel.

So we see that the Vatican intefered with the Israeli elections, and then USED THE DIASPORA JEWS TO INFLUENCE ISRAEL; also USED THE CONCERNS OF THE DIASPORA JEWS -ANTISEMITISM , AND THE CONCERN OF THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT - RECOGNITION OF ISRAEL, AS BARGAINING CHIPS FOR THE LAND OF ISRAEL!

Right after putting Peres and Beilin in office, the Church got their cooperation to start the TRANSFER OF CHURCH PROPERTIES TO THE VATICAN. It seems that Rabin just ‘happened’ to be part of the whole deal; an EXPENDABLE ITEM, an obstacle, for all practical purposes.

That would certainly explain his murder in 1995, for all of those who DON”T BELIEVE the official version of his assassination, and DO BELIEVE THAT PERES WAS BEHIND IT. Peres, in other words, ROME.

Within one month of the election of Rabin and Peres in June 1992, in July, the Vatican already started ACTIVE NEGOTIATIONS ABOUT CHURCH PROPERTIES -ILLEGAL,, SECRET AND ILLEGITIMATE,- with Yossi Beilin. Now don’t forget that Yossi Beilin was Deputy Foreign Minister, and Shimon Peres was the Foreign Minister, so obviously Peres was in on the deal.

It is important to mention that these talks were DONE IN SECRET, AND NOT APPROVED BY THE KNESSET, yet left FOOTPRINTS in the form of DOCUMENTS DRAFTED, albeit with deception, I would even say under duress, and illegally.

What WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO LEAVE a footprint were the PARALLEL TALKS OF SHIMON PERES GOING ON DIRECTLY WITH THE POPE, about Church properties. Those talks took place at the Vatican between Peres and the pope, or in the form of SECRET hand-delivered LETTERS written BY PERES, or later in 2006, in a letter from OLMERT HAND -DELIVERED BY PERES DIRECTLY TO THE POPE.

These SECRET CHANNELS that Peres handled are UNACCOUNTED FOR. THEY ARE THE MOST DAMAGING AND ILLEGAL, AND OF COURSE INVALID ONES. In them, according to reliable documents ( see links), Peres promised to the pope the INTERNATIONALIZATION OF JERUSALEM, which is what the “Holy See” ( not holy at all, actually, very criminal and UNHOLY SEE) demands.

As an example; when Shimon Peres went to the Vatican in April 2006, barely a week after Olmert’s “election“, and while carrying a secret letter to the pope, which was NEVER SHOWN TO THE MEDIA, he had an audience of 40 minutes with the pope, an extraordinary long meeting by pope standards.

While PERES CLAIMED that the meeting showed the interest of the pope in Israel, in fact, MOST OF THE MEETING CONSISTED OF NEGOTIATIONS ABOUT THE CHURCH PROPERTIES IN ISRAEL. This is a typical example of DISHONESTY and DECEIT on the part of the KADIMA GANG.

Another OUTRAGEOUS EXAMPLE of Kadima deception is the fact during the “official” channel WORKING GROUP between the Foreign Office of the State of Israel and the Vatican since 2006, the ISRAELI representative FOR THE RELIGIOUS MINISTRY IS AN ARAB, BAHIJ MANSOUR. Of course the non-Jew will be willing to give away JEWISH PATRIMONY TO THE CHURCH!

4. PROGRESS OF THE NEGOTIATIONS

Very remarkable is the fact that negotiations since December 20, 1993, the date the FUNDAMENTAL AGREEMENT between Israel and the Vatican was signed, were stalled significantly , despite the signing of the LEGAL PERSONALITY AGREEMENT in 1997. For the agreements themselves and definitions, see the links at the end of the article.

Of importance is the fact that a number of very significant issues were left untouched, for obvious reasons: none of the items signed away by Yossi Beilin had any validity according to Israeli law, and accordingly were illegitimate. But the Vatican signed these agreements at the highest levels of government: the Secretary of State is the highest person in Vatican hierarchy after the pope himself. Of course these agreements were designed, by the Vatican, for maximal effect.

The legal personality agreement GAVE AWAY an extremely important RIGHT to the Catholic Church: that of being allowed to SUE in Israeli courts for its properties, something that prior to 1997 was absolutely ILLEGAL in ISRAEL: until then,ONLY THE GOVERNMENT COULD DECIDE WHAT WOULD BECOME OF ISRAELI TERRITORY, and not the CLEARLY BIASED LEFTIST COURT SYSTEM OF ISRAEL, which incidentally also has strong ties to the Vatican, making it the perfect forum for disputes between the Catholic Church and Jewish claims.

David Levy, by signing that document, GAVE AWAY THAT RIGHT.

But since then, negotiations had stalled, the Vatican was clearly losing patience with Israel. Not stranger to interfering with Israeli governance, it appears that it ONCE AGAIN DECIDED TO ACT, when things weren’t advancing properly: TIME TO PUT PERES BACK INTO POWER!

SO here comes KADIMA, and here is WHERE ARIEL SHARON ‘S STROKE, and THE CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT MISMANAGEMENT OF HIS TREATMENT - take it from a PHYSICIAN!- COMES IN oh, but SO HANDY FOR THE CHURCH; specially CONSIDERING THAT NUNCIO PIETRO SAMBI, AFTER EIGHT AND A HALF YEARS OF FAITHFUL SERVICE IN JERUSALEM, WAS SUDDENLY ORDERED TO BE TRANSFERRED TO THE UNITED STATES ONLY ONE DAY BEFORE SHARON HAS HIS STROKE .

Just this week, one Arab got 6 years in jail for attempting to poison Jews with a tasteless, colorless powder in Jerusalem: if a STUPID ARAB can do it, WHAT ABOUT THE HIGHLY SOPHISTICATED CATHOLIC CHURCH AND ALL ITS ALLIES IN ISRAEL, I ASK YOU?? And by the way, how would you like to know the most common tasteless, colorless poison used to poison dogs - ( and who knows how many more humans) : how about RAT POISON?

WHAT DO YOU THINK RAT POISON IS: HOW ABOUT COUMADIN, a colorless, tasteless anticoagulant that will cause hemorrhages, that is, BLEEDING, in such interesting body parts as the brain, among others? AND WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT COUMADIN IS PRECISELY THE MEDICATION SHARON WAS TREATED WITH WITHOUT SUPERVISION, ( IN ADDITION TO HEPARIN, I WOULD ASSUME, ANOTHER ANTIGOAGULANT ) AND SENT HOME WITH TO THE NEGEV? WHAT DOSAGE WAS HE GIVEN? HOW OFTEN DID THEY DO BLOOD LEVELS, OF BOTH HEPARIN AND COUMADIN, AS REQUIRED BY MEDICAL PROTOCOL? HEPARIN LEVELS SHOULD BE CHECKED A FEW TIMES A DAY, AND COUMADIN DAILY, WHILE DOSAGE IS BEING ADJUSTED: WAS THAT DONE, OR NOT? HOW EASY WOULD IT BE TO GIVE AN EXCESSIVE DOSE OF COUMADIN, AND THEN FAIL TO TEST BLOOD LEVELS TO SEE IF THE DOSAGE IS CORRECT? WHICH DOCTOR IN HIS OR HER RIGHT MIND WOULD START A PATIENT ON COUMADIN WITHOUT CHECKING BLOOD LEVELS??

( Barry Chamish reports that Shimon Peres had tea with Ariel Sharon half and hour before his first, mild stroke: even if true, it doesn't prove anything, because the tasteless, colorless Coumadin is a SLOW -ACTING drug; what could have happened, though, is SLOW POISONING over the course of a few days PRIOR to Sharon's first stroke. Read the information on THE CUP OF BORGIA, in the last section, medical)

NOW ARE YOU PUTTING TWO AND TWO TOGETHER, OR DO YOU STILL NEED MY HELP to understand what happened???

OK. So now we are PAST the Sharon era, into KADIMA TIMES, shenanigans and manipulations at the elections level, as everybody recalls, Peres made president after HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE accusations against Moshe Katsav, - who incidentally was NOT ready to give away Har Tzion [Mount Zion], and HAD TO GO!!…. and now it’s SMOOTH SAILING FOR THE NEGOTIATION AND THE GIVEAWAY OF JERUSALEM. So easy: an ARAB put in charge of giving away Jewish holy places…. why not, so simple, really!

Fast track to 2009: NOBODY HEARS A PEEP about what’s going on: we just find out that BENEDICT XVI is coming for a visit to Israel. ONLY 10 million dollars used to prepare for his visit, among others 6 million NIS, one for every Jew killed in the Holocaust, to RENOVATE CATHOLIC HOLY PLACES. Among others, the CENACLE, which until now had BARE WALLS, because NO PARAPHERNALIA OF IDOL WORSHIP ARE ALLOWED IN A YESHIVA -that is, the Diaspora Yeshiva of Har Tzion. But no worry: RENOVATIONS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN THERE. With other words, the PROPERTIES are being READIED for the pope’s arrival, turned into proper Catholic shrines, Jewish or not.

And guess what: THE CONDITION FOR HIS VISIT IS FINALIZATION OF THE AGREEMENT, WITH FINAL SIGNATURES IN A PLENARY SESSION DUE APRIL 23, according to the VATICAN record, or EREV PESSACH [Passover eve], APRIL 7th, according to ZENIT, a CATHOLIC NEWS AGENCY.

( A plenary session is a session in which ALL HIGHER LEVEL PARTIES SIGN, THE VATICAN AND THE STATE OF ISRAEL). Now of course Olmert’s people deny everything, but they have lied non-stop, why should they change now? They have to sign away the deal quickly before NETANYAHU’s crew comes in , and finds out IN TOTAL SHOCK the hanky-panky that has been going on under the faithless watch of criminals .

To be signed away:

300 million NIS of BACKTAXES due by the CHURCH to us, the ISRAELI PEOPLE.

But even more ominously: THE CHURCH PROPERTIES THE VATICAN DEMANDS:

HAR TZION [Mount Zion]

CAESARIA CHURCH

CONVENT AT HEBREW UNIVERSITY

PROPERTIES AROUND THE KINNERET,

ETC.

ETC.

MORE TERRIBLE:

THESE PROPERTIES WILL BECOME EXTRATERRITORIAL TO ISRAEL, IF THE DEAL IS SIGNED. AND THE DEAL IS SUPPOSED TO BE VALID FOREVER, UNCHANGEABLE, PERMANENT, IRREVOCABLE: “A PERPETUITE“.

EVEN WORSE:

IF THE REPORT OF PERES’S PROMISE TO THE VATICAN IS TRUE, EAST JERUSALEM IS ABOUT TO BE INTERNATIONALIZED, UNDER AUSPICES OF THE UN..

ALREADY, THE UN IS RULING IN THE OLD CITY, FORBIDDING JEWISH CONSTRUCTION.

NEXT STEP: VATICAN RULE FOREVER IN JERUSALEM UNDER THE POPE, THE UN, AND GERMANY.

We have to understand that the Church is perfectly willing to USE FORCE to IMPOSE ITS WILL, and will USE ANTISEMITISM ALL OVER IF IT DOESN”T GET ITS WAY. OF COURSE, NON-RECOGNITION OF ISRAEL WILL BE A GIVEN. WE WILL BE AT WAR WITH THE WHOLE CATHOLIC WORLD.
ON THE OTHER HAND, WE WILL GAIN THE ETERNAL GRATITUDE OF THE PROTESTANTS, WHO HAVE BEEN BITTERLY PERSECUTED BY THE CHURCH FOR CENTURIES AND DREAD PAPAL RULE.

I THINK WE NEED TO FIGHT FOR OUR PATRIMONY, FORCE THE GOVERNMENT TO REFUSE TO SIGN, AND ALERT EVERY JEW ALIVE TO HURRY AND COME BACK HOME BEFORE ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE.

THE ALTERNATIVE: LOSE JERUSALEM , HAR HABAYIT [Temple Mount], ERETZ YISRAEL [Land of Israel], FOREVER.

OUR CHOICE.


5. THE RUSSIAN CONNECTION

1. In 1989, 1990, Gorbachev was politically active, responsible for Madrid together with the US, the UN ( that equals Rome), etc. What happened since then I am not sure. Remember that he met the pope in a private and very friendly visit in 1989.

Gorbachev and Peres COOPERATE on a number of issues: however, Gorbachev is not representative for Russia at this time, but there is SYMBOLIC CONTINUATION OF THE SAME SPIRIT: SAME ACTIVITIES: see visit of Gorbachev to the pope in 1989, and of Putin in 2007.

Since 2007, PUTIN AND THE POPE have established very friendly cooperation,, they consider themselves brothers in religion, and are coordinating their activities in the Middle East.

So the recent giving away of the Russian compound to the Russians has to be seen in the context of the Vatican give-away: it is part and parcel of the same plan: THE RULERSHIP OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, WITH THE HELP OF HER SISTER THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH.

I also see a direct connection between Gorbachev's visit to the Vatican and the subsequent Madrid accords. The Pope acted through Moscow as well as through the US and other channels. See also the letter he wrote to Gorbachev THE DAY BEFORE MADRID .

Meeting for the first time in the Western Hemisphere, representatives of the IJCIC and the Holy See's Commission met in Baltimore, Maryland, on May 4-7, 1992. This was the 14th meeting of the International Catholic-Jewish Liaison Committee (ILC). The co-chairs of the ILC are Mr. Edgar Bronfman, President of the World Jewish Congress, and Edward Cardinal Cassidy, President of the Holy See's Commission.

"In the context of the day on which Jews celebrate Yom Ha Atzmauth (Israel's Independence Day, May 7), while recognizing that the question of diplomatic relations between the State of Israel and the Holy See is a matter of competence first and foremost for the Government of the State of Israel and the Vatican Secretariat of State, the Conference participants are conscious of the importance of this question also for Jewish-Catholic relations in general and express hope that significant progress in this regard will soon be achieved.....

...Of particular urgency are joint commitments to democratic principles and opposition to extreme nationalistic movements which threaten democracy. This, the Catholic side noted, was also a major theme and concern of the recent special meeting for Europe of the Synod of Bishops."

..."Relations moved further ahead as a result of a Conference of the ILC in Baltimore in 1992 when the Vatican participants proposed the establishment of joint Catholic-Jewish delegations to appear before international bodies on matters of mutual concern. They also undertook to extend to other countries the initiative of the Italian bishops who had declared that one day a year in their dioceses would be devoted to the study of Judaism and the Jewish people. In the summer of 1992, the Vatican announced the opening of discussions with Israel for the normalization of relations between the two countries toward the establishment of diplomatic ties, which was finally achieved at the end of 1993.

VATICAN - ISRAEL - DOSSIER
Fr. Jaeger: some issues with the government difficult but resolvable

Jerusalem (AsiaNews) - Problems with visas, taxation of religious institutions, restitution of the Cenacle: Fr. David Maria Jaeger, an Israeli Franciscan, shared his views with AsiaNews, in his capacity as a jurist and expert on Church/State relations in Israel, on the central topics of an interview with Avraham Poraz, Israeli Interior Minister.
For Minister Poraz, problem with visas are "all but resolved", thanks to involvement from the Holy See which would vouch for visa applicants. But, for Fr. Jaeger, "In principle, from a juridical point of view, that of the rule of law, all norms regarding the issuance of entry visas and of residence permits must not be kept secret, but be officially published, so that applicants can refer to them in submitting their applications, in evaluating decisions and in considering any kind of recourse. It is clear, that in the middle term, the question will have to be the subject of negotiations and agreement, in accordance with the Fundamental Agreement between the Holy See and the state of Israel.
"The question has been on the bilateral permanent Commission's agenda since 1994, and it would be reasonable to presume that the Commission will deal with it in the next phase of talks."
Tax exemptions for religious institutions is another open question. The minister explained that places of worship are exempt from taxes, but not any commercial or hotel activities that may be connected to them. All such places should, in any case, pay for municipal services such as cleaning, water, etc...
"As far as is known, the Church has never demanded anything other than the recognition of vested rights; in other words, that its legal and tax conditions not worsen with respect to those under previous regimes. It is a matter of reconfirming a law that came into force in 1938, as well as legal and tax conditions that, by UN order, were to be maintained following the creation of the new state. However, just as discussions were taking place to record the contents of that law in the agreement with the Catholic Church (that is, in 2002), the Government drastically reduced the exemptions that were to be guaranteed to the Church. This was certainly not the purpose of the law, but one of its effects, which the agreement should now correct. Personally, I am optimistic about the outcome of negotiations, because I cannot imagine that, right after establishing official relations at the highest level, the Government of Israel would want to go down in the history of Church/State relations in the Holy Land for having worsened the legal and tax conditions of the Catholic Church on its national territory...It would be unthinkable, and that is why I trust the Government to conclude that it must make amends for the undesired effect of recent legislation, and that it is in the national interest to respect vested rights and the will of international institutions. Besides, the Catholic Church has never demanded any sort of exemption for purely commercial activities owned by the Church, if there are any in Israel, nor for the quantifiable consumption of utilities such as water or electricity, which are paid by everyone in proportion to actual consumption."
The minister also mentioned the return of the Cenacle and claims that the problem today "is a disagreement between Churches, on who is to take possession of it" and that the Government cannot enter into this disagreement.
"It's astonishing to hear talk of controversies between the Christian Churches," Fr. Jaeger affirms. "They have simply never existed, as far as the Franciscan Cenacle complex is concerned. Unlike the Nativity in Bethlehem and the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, the Cenacle has never been "shared" or contested....its ownership was properly acquired by the sovereigns of Naples, Robert and Sancha, and, with the backing of Pope Clement VI, was donated to the Franciscan Order in 1342. The convent and sanctuary thus became the mother house of the Franciscan Custody of the Holy Land. It was the Ottoman Turks who, two centuries later, expelled the Franciscans by force. Since then, the Franciscans have always appealed for its return to their ownership, which has never belonged to any other Christian entity, whether Catholic or non-Catholic. And as far back as 1948, Israeli governments themselves have always recognized the Custody of the Holy Land as the sole official Christian interocutor for all questions regarding the Cenacle area. Thus, there has never been a controversy between Christian Churches, and there must never be one, unless someone provokes one in order to "divide and rule", as they used to say in the ancient Roman Empire."
http://www.asianews.it/index.php?l=en&art=1498#

....Tax exemptions for religious intitutions was another question discussed in Tuesday's meeting. The minister explained that measures for tax exemptions date back to the British Mandate. The question of tax measures is part of the agenda for the implementation of the Fundamental Agreement between Israel and the Holy See. "According to our laws -- Poraz explained -- places of worship (churches, synagogues, etc.) are exempt from taxes. If these institutions include shops or offer accomodations for a fee, then taxes can be levied. The only outstanding problem is concerning monasteries, where religious communities are housed. I have decided that they should not pay taxes, but pay only for municipal services, such as cleaning, sewage, water, etc. Municipalities need these taxes because otherwise they would not be able to offer such services."
Another matter mentioned by Poraz concerns the ownership of the Cenacle, once a property of the Franciscans, then of the Muslims and now of the Israeli government. On the occasion of John Paul II's visit to the Holy Sites in the Holy Land, there had been talk of the possibility of returning the place of Jesus' Last Supper to the Church.
Poraz said that "the problem today is a disagreement among the various Churches on who is to take possession of it. And Israel cannot enter into this disagreement. The Orthodox Church and Armenian Church have the right to pray there, together with the Franciscans. There are problems with the use of all the Holy Sites, but these are settled by the rules of the Status Quo. There are no such rules for the Cenacle. Everyone is expecting a decision from Israel, but there is no concrete decision yet."

ISRAEL - VATICAN
Hope for a conclusion in Holy See-Israel talks before Pope's arrival in Holy Land
Arieh Cohen
The Bilateral Commission met yesterday. The joint communiqué speaks of “progress” towards an agreement in the making since 1999.


Jerusalem (AsiaNews) – The Bilateral Permanent Working Commission between the Holy See and the State of Israel met on Wednesday 18 February, at the seat of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to continue negotiating a treaty that would confirm the fiscal status of the Church in Israel, and safeguard her properties, especially the sacred places, as well as bring about restitution of some that have been lost over time. These negotiations began on 11 March 1999.
The convoy of motor vehicles with diplomatic number plates, with on board the negotiators for the Holy See, was seen arriving at the Foreign Ministry a little before 10 a.m., and leaving again a little before 1 p.m. The negotiators did not grant interviews, and only spoke, together with the Israeli Foreign Ministry, through a joint communiqué. Interest has been aroused by the fact that this time the communiqué speaks of "progress" that was achieved, beyond repeating the usual references to an atmosphere of "great cordiality" and to the shared determination to conclude the agreement "as soon as possible". For observers, the hope is thus being offered of further progress still before the arrival of Pope Benedict XVI who is expected to come to the Holy Land as a Pilgrim in May of this year.

http:www.christusrex.org/www2/liberation?III-4.html

http://www.christusrex.org/www1/ofm/jub/jerus2.html

If the Holy See has no competence to enter into territorial disputes between Nations, to take sides, to seek to impose detailed solutions, on the contrary it has the right and duty of reminding the Parties of the obligation to resolve controversies peacefully, in accordance with the principles of justice and equity within the international legal framework.
In the case of Jerusalem, both aspects, the religious and the political and territorial, are closely linked, even though they are different in their constitutive elements, in the proper means of dealing with them and in finding a solution to them.
IV. What is the Holy See requesting for Jerusalem?
First of all. it asks that Jerusalem be respected for what it is in itself or rather what it should be, compared with what it actually is. That is what I defined a short while ago as the vocation or identity of the Holy City. Jerusalem is a treasure of the whole of humanity. In view of a situation of evident conflict and considering the rapid transformation of the Holy City, any unilateral solution or one brought about by force is not and cannot be a solution at all.
It is the view of the Holy See that every exclusive claim - be it religious or political - is contrary to the logic proper to the very City itself. I must insist: every citizen of Jerusalem and every person who visits Jerusalem should embody the message of dialogue, coexistence and respect evoked by the City. Exclusive claims cannot be backed up by numerical or historical criteria.
Having said that, I must add that there is nothing to prevent Jerusalem, in its unity and uniqueness, becoming the symbol and the national centre of both the Peoples that claim it as their Capital. But if Jerusalem is sacred to Jews, Christians and Muslims, it is also sacred to many people from every part of the world who look to it as their spiritual capital or travel there on pilgrimage, to pray and to meet their brethren in faith. It is the cultural heritage of everybody, including those who visit it simply as tourists.
Consequently, the Holy See believes that there is an obligation to find a realistic solution to the problems of Jerusalem, to all of them, according to their particular characteristics.
There is a political problem concerning Jerusalem for Israelis and Palestinians first of all which is very practical. The Madrid Conference of 1991 and what followed gave birth to hopes of a peaceful future. Hopes founded on a willingness to talk, to negotiate and to seek to compromise. Hopes which appeared well-founded also by reason of the commitment and efforts of a large section of the international community, and in particular of the United States of America, as the events which took place at Wye Plantation in the last few days have demonstrated. Let us hope that the aspirations for dialogue and peace will contribute to the implementation of what has been agreed upon.
In this context, which is certainly both complex and delicate, the Jerusalem question has been placed at the bottom of the agenda. It is understandable that the difficulty and delicacy of the question of Jerusalem have meant that it has been left till last. But we all know, and the Israelis and the Palestinians are the first in this, that peace and coexistence in the Holy Land and Middle East have no future, unless an answer is found to the political question of Jerusalem. Allow me to quote once again from "Redemptionis Anno" of 1984, in which His Holiness Pope John Paul II wrote: "I am convinced that the failure to find an adequate solution to the question of Jerusalem, and the resigned postponement of the problem, only compromise further the longed-for peaceful and just settlement of the crisis of the whole Middle East."
What does the Holy See mean by an "adequate solution"? It means recognizing that the situation today is one of conflict. It means that Israelis and Palestinians, with the collaboration of all who can help them, have to reach an agreement which corresponds in some way to their particular legitimate and reasonable aspirations, and respects the principles of justice.
As far as the Holy See is concerned, however, the solution of a territorial dispute alone is not enough for Jerusalem, precisely because Jerusalem is an unparalleled reality: it is part of the patrimony of the whole world. And the whole world has shown that it is fully aware of this when, for example, through resolutions of the United Nations it has sought to defend that patrimony.
Looking to Jerusalem, the Holy See continues to ask that it be protected by "a special internationally guaranteed Statute". What is meant by this? In the Holy See's view:
the historical and material characteristics of the City, as well as its religious and cultural characteristics, must be preserved, and perhaps today it is necessary to speak of restoring and safeguarding those still existing;
there must be equality of rights and treatment for those belonging to the communities of the three religions found in the City, in the context of the freedom of spiritual, cultural, civic and economic activities;
the Holy Places situated in the City must be preserved, and the rights of freedom of religion and worship, and of access, for residents and pilgrims alike, whether from the Holy Land itself or from other parts of the world, must be safeguarded.
At stake is the basic question of preserving and protecting the identity of the Holy City in its entirety, in every aspect. For example, the simple "extraterritoriality" of the Holy Places, with the assurance that pilgrims would be able to visit them without hindrance, would not suffice. The identity of the City includes a sacred character which belongs not just to the individual sites or monuments, as if these could be separated from one another or isolated from the respective communities. The sacred character involves Jerusalem in its entirety, its holy places and its communities with their schools, hospitals, cultural, social and economic activities.
Israelis and Palestinians, in the desired search for a political settlement of their conflict over Jerusalem, cannot overlook the fact that the City has aspects which go far beyond their legitimate national interests. They, therefore, have to take these aspects into consideration in looking for and in reaching a lasting political and territorial solution. In the same way, they will not be able to avoid giving due consideration to the efforts and demands of all legitimately interested parties. In this, Israelis and Palestinians must not feel in any way restricted, but rather honoured and reassured.

8. THE RUSSIAN CONNECTION

A. ADDENDUM ABOUT THE POPE HIMSELF:

Please read THE WHOLE TEXT TO UNDERSTAND THIS POPE and his HASHKAFAH [religious ideology] BETTER.

THIS SECTION ALSO DEALS WITH THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH, .

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Benedict_XVI

Near the end of June 2007, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith issued a document approved by Benedict XVI "because some contemporary theological interpretations of Vatican II's ecumenical intent had been 'erroneous or ambiguous' and had prompted confusion and doubt."[57] The document has been seen as restating "key sections of a 2000 text the pope wrote when he was prefect of the congregation, Dominus Iesus."[57]

The document issued on 29 June 2007 stated in part that "oriental Churches [i.e. Eastern Christianity] ...[merit the title sister Churches] Because these Churches, although separated, have true sacraments and above all – because of the apostolic succession – the priesthood and the Eucharist, by means of which they remain linked to us [Roman Catholicism] by very close bonds. ...However, since communion with the Catholic Church, the visible head of which is the Bishop of Rome and the Successor of Peter, is not some external complement to a particular Church but rather one of its internal constitutive principles, these venerable Christian communities lack something in their condition as particular churches."[58]

"These ecclesial Communities which, specifically because of the absence of the sacramental priesthood, have not preserved the genuine and integral substance of the Eucharistic Mystery cannot, according to Catholic doctrine, be called "Churches" in the proper sense." —Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith[58]

The document went on to say "Christian Communities born out of the Reformation of the sixteenth century... do not enjoy apostolic succession in the sacrament of Orders, and are, therefore, deprived of a constitutive element of the Church. These ecclesial Communities which, specifically because of the absence of the sacramental priesthood, have not preserved the genuine and integral substance of the Eucharistic Mystery cannot, according to Catholic doctrine, be called "Churches" in the proper sense."[58]

.....[57] The Russian Orthodox Church, however, called the document "honest", noting that it contains nothing new and was conducive to "an honest theological dialogue."[59] The issuing of this document and the recent allowance made by Benedict XVI for more widespread use of the traditional Tridentine Mass was seen by some of his critics as a move towards conservatism, some even "raised questions about Benedict’s commitment to the changes made during the Second Vatican Council."[60]


B .Interesting:

The SERBIA connection, and how the VATICAN financed the purchase of the weapons to kill Serbs, and help the Muslims of Croatia.

Also, let's not forget how the Ustashe, who killed so many Jews, also killed hundreds of thousands Serbs.

On March 2007, there was a historic visit of Vladimir Putin to the Vatican, with his bishop(s). Very cordial relations,bilateral friendly ties of both churches, and COORDINATION re: THE MIDDLE EAST,( in particular ISRAEL).

4.This shows the increasing ties between this pope and Russia, in particular as regards the Middle East. READ.

....“Now, we must allow for photographs” added the Pope, after Putin positioned himself at the desk, the same place occupied by Gorbachev in his historic visit with John Paul II and then the doors closed on the private meeting which lasted over 25 minutes. Putin and Benedict XVI spoke in German assisted by two interpreters.

Following the encounter, there was the presentation of the delegations and the exchange of gifts. ....""

5.Visit to Italy,

Religious and political interests
Putin’s trip to Italy also has a religious-political dimension that should not be overlooked since it is also his first visit to the Vatican. For the Russian president meeting Benedict XVI reflects a desire to have the Vatican on his side in the great strategic game that is being played out on the energy, political, ideological and religious fields. Support from the Church of Rome would help Putin dismiss European and US criticism over Russia’s human rights record, its political use of energy supplies and its reticence vis-à-vis sanctions against Iran. It would also reduce the country’s historic fear of encirclement.
This is especially true in the Middle East, where Putin like his predecessors probably views Russia as the traditional protector of Christian Orthodoxy in the Holy Land, and wants to break its isolation by preventing the Vatican from aligning itself to the staunchly pro-Israel positions of the US right. This way Russia would not have to make compromise with Islamic fundamentalism which Russians, too, view as a danger.
6. RUSSIAN NAVAL BASE. In 2007, I had read - and sent out - an article about ITALY permitting Russia a naval base in the Mediterranean , after the papal visit, I cannot find the article any more. Here is one from August, but not accurate.

7. GORBACHEV:

A. meets John Paul II at the Vatican in DECEMBER 1989, historic meeting of reconciliation shortly before 1990, when the Vatican steps up its efforts re; the Jews. ACTUALLY, the 1990 meeting of the ILC takes place in EASTERN EUROPE, after 5 years of NO relationships with the Jews; all of a sudden, the Vatican renews relations with Jews, warming up, going to Auschwitz, meeting in Prague, (pretending to do?) Teshuvah for the Shoah. Prelude to the other meetings later in 1991, etc.( see the article for more details on that)

1990 - Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev
Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev was born on March 2, 1931 in Privolnoye, Stavropol province. He went to Moscow State University where he graduated in Law and joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1952 As president of the Soviet Union, he had a leading role in the peace process which today characterizes important parts of the international community. He pulled troops out of Afghanistan and helped achieve a negotiated solution to the long-running regional conflicts in Angola, Nicaragua and Cambodia. He visited China in May 1989, thereby heightening world attention to worker-student democracy demonstrations there. He established diplomatic relations with South Korea. Gorbachev cultivated unprecedented close relations with Presidents Reagan and Bush, negotiated major cuts in nuclear arms, and started to convert the defense industry to peacetime needs. The defense budget and the size of the armed forces have been cut significantly. He currently heads the Gorbachev Foundation (since 1992), Green Cross International (since 1993), and the Civic Forum movement (since April 1996).

D.THIS article is very important in understanding Israel, the world, the UN, Gorbachev and James Baker in 1991, shortly before and after Madrid, and before the Israeli elections.

E. I have been looking for details, no time now; but SHIMON PERES BELONGS TO GREEN CROSS INTERNATIONAL, is one of the big members. This is an organization based in GENEVA, Switzerland, FOUNDED BY GORBACHEV. They meet there regularly and COOPERATE in a whole range of activities SUBVERSIVE TO ISRAEL, among others. For instance, the WATER ISSUE, with a slant to GIVE AWAY our water to the Arabs for PEACE!! Not only LAND FOR PEACE, but WATER FOR PEACE!

legislature. Negotiations ground to a halt the following year, resuming only after diplomatic pressure from the U.S.A. in 2004.
Since then Vatican officials, notably Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, have been frustrated at the slow pace of negotiations and the road blocks thrown up by the Israelis. One such particularly thorny issue was the sudden 2007 revocation of visas to religious personnel not born in Israel, cutting off hundreds of priests and religious from their work in the Holy Land. On Jan. 16, 2008, the Israeli Interior Minister announced that, while taking into consideration the security issue, Israel will now make a "concession" of restoring such visas.
Recently, Israel's Holy See ambassador, Oded Ben-Hur claimed that his government was very close to finalizing the full pact--85% agreed, he said. But such statements have been heard before. Pope Benedict would like to pay an official visit to Israel, but he is unlikely to do so until the Fundamental Agreement is signed and sealed.

Another piece of news that probably escaped - deliberately - Israelis' attention: the Vatican supports DURBAN II!

Vatican ... planning to attend Durban II conference

09 March 2009

The Vatican has said that it will attend the controversial UN anti-racism conference in Geneva next month (‘Durban Review Conference’, or ‘Durban II’) but hoped for a change in the wording of its final declaration."People go to conferences to discuss and debate," Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi was quoted as saying by the Reuters news agency. He added: "That doesn't mean we agree with the draft text of the final declaration as it is now." Both Italy and the United States have said that they will not attend unless the wording of a document they consider hostile to Israel is altered before the gathering starts. Lombardi said the Vatican's representative in Geneva had "made it clear that the Vatican is opposed to all forms of discrimination, whether it is against an individual, a religion or a state." The Vatican has permanent observer status at the United Nations, but is not a member state.....

15:36 - POPE TO THE HOLY LAND: CATHOLIC ORDINARIES, “FOUNDATION STONE OF A FAMILY CENTRE IN NAZARETH”
c

After the Pope made the official announcement of his visit to the Holy Land during last Sunday’s Angelus, today the Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land’s Assembly held a press conference to inform journalists about the journey and give some details. At the press conference, it was announced that “the Pope will lay the foundation stone of an international family centre. Always in Nazareth, the Pope will celebrate an open-air Mass. Forty to fifty thousands faithful are expected to attend. Other open-air Masses are going to be held in Jerusalem, in the Kidron Valley, with an expected attendance of 5,000 faithful, and in Bethlehem.” Benedict XVI will pray in the Cenacle and in the Holy Sepulchre. The ecumenical programme includes some meetings at “the Greek-Orthodox and Armenian-Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem.” On the inter-religious side, “the Pope’s meeting with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, his visit to the Dome of the Rock as well as his prayer at the Wailing Wall and at the Rabbinic centre of Jerusalem - near the central synagogue ­­- have all been confirmed. Among the requests the Israeli government “has promised to satisfy”, there is “the possibility for a Christian delegation to come from Gaza, where two buses have already been allocated to drive the faithful to Bethlehem for the Mass.”

13:56 - POPE IN THE HOLY LAND: LEWY (ISRAELI AMBASSADOR TO THE HOLY SEE), “ISRAEL WILL RESPECT THE POPE’S RELIGIOUS SYMBOLS”

“It is not fitting to enter the Western Wall area with religious symbols, including a cross.” According to Rabbi Shmuel Rabinovitch, who is responsible for worship matters at the Western Wall, Benedict XVI should not wear the cross during his visit to the Western Wall, scheduled for 12 May as a part of his journey to the Holy Land. The Rabbi’s declarations, published today by Jerusalem Post, were followed by a clarification by Mordechay Lewy, Israeli Ambassador to the Holy See. A statement that has just been released reads: “The Ambassador of Israel to the Holy See, H.E. Mordechay Lewy, believes it necessary to clarify that during the next visit of Pope Benedict XVI to the Western Wall, the same procedure that was applied in the Papal visit of the year 2000, will be valid. The Israeli host will respect, as a matter of course, the religious symbols of the Holy Father and of his entourage, as expected in accordance with rules of hospitality and dignity. This was confirmed to a high Official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Jerusalem personally by Rabbi Shmuel Rabinovitch, who is responsible for worship matters at the Western Wall. This clarification was deemed necessary as today - 17 March 2009 - the Israeli daily “Jerusalem Post” published a misleading quotation of the rabbi.”

17:07 - BENEDICT XVI TO THE HOLY LAND: ISRAEL, LESSONS TO LEARN ABOUT THE POPE, THE VATICAN AND THE CHURCH

500 hours of classes to explain the figure of the Pope and the history of both the Church and the Vatican to the students of the Christian schools in Israel. This is what the local government decided in order to prepare the next visit of Benedict XVI to the country, for which 43 millions of shekel had been allocated, against 30 millions that had been allocated to John Paul II's visit in 2000. This is what parish priest of Jerusalem Father Ibrahim Faltas, an assistant in the Catholic schools of Jerusalem, explained to the SIR. “It is about some lessons on this issues aimed at pupils attending Christian Catholic schools, including Muslims,” explained the Franciscan Father. The news is confirmed by Father Elias Daw, President of the court of appeal of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church. With its 60 thousands faithful, this church is the biggest church of Israel. “This initiative is showing Israelis’ expectations for the papal visit. This journey comes in a delicate moment, after the tragedy of Gaza, the recent attacks against the symbols of our religion on an Israeli TV channel and the declarations made by Holocaust-denying bishop Williamson,” he said to the SIR. Christians in the Holy Land need the Pope and his voice of truth and justice now more than ever.” In Israel, there are 44 Catholic schools attended by 24,000 students both Muslim and Catholic.

10:16 - CHARLEMAGNE PRIZE: 2009 EDITION TO ANDREA RICCARDI

The Charlemagne prize 2009 was awarded to Andrea Riccardi, the founder of Saint Egidio Community. The news is reported by the Saint Egidio Community itself. Tomorrow, 5 March, the Community will hold a press conference (5pm. at piazza S. Egidio 3 in Rome) in which Jürgen Linden, Aachen’s mayor, and Walter Eversheim, spokesman of the Charlemagne Prize Board of Directors, will meet Riccardi to give him the official news of his award. We decided to bestow the prize on Andrea Riccardi “to hail him as a great European who has put his life at the service of the neighbour, in the best sense of the term, for his passionate commitment to supporting understanding and dialogue between people of every religion and nationality and for the Saint Egidio Community is giving an outstanding contribution to a more peaceful and fair world, which is an extraordinary example of civil commitment for a more human and united Europe both within and outside its borders,” the board explained. The prize will be bestowed on 21 March during an official ceremony which will be held in the coronation hall of Aachen town hall. Among the winners of past editions: Angela Merkel (2008), Carlo Azeglio Ciampi (2005), Bill Clinton (2000), Tony Blair (1999), Frère Roger Schutz, Taizé (1989), and before them, Robert Schuman, Winston Churchill, Konrad Adenauer, Jean Monnet e Alcide de Gasperi.

(I guess these INTERFAITH meetings with rabbis bore fruit; the sweet fruit of recapturing Har Tzion!)

"the main benefit of anticoagulants over other poisons is that the time taken for the poison to induce death means that the rats do not associate death with eating the poison."

Use as a pesticide

Warning label on a tube of rat poison laid on a dike of the Scheldt river in Steendorp, Belgium. The tube contains bromadiolone, a second-generation ("super-warfarin") anticoagulant.
To this day, coumarins are used as rodenticides for controlling rats and mice in residential, industrial, and agricultural areas. Warfarin is both odorless and tasteless, and is effective when mixed with food bait, because the rodents will return to the bait and continue to feed over a period of days until a lethal dose is accumulated (considered to be 1 mg/kg/day over about six days).
