AS IN ISRAEL, SURRONDED BY 21 ARAB NATIONS.
To be more specific, Israel has a population of only 8 million souls – not much more than were butchered and gassed in the infamous Nazis Concentration Camps.
This tiny oasis finds itself in the midst of over 200 million Muslims, a number of whom would love to see Israel obliterated from the face of the earth.
I call this Blog – one is the loneliest number for a reason; until last week, Canada was arguably Israel’s only true friend and ally left. But with the election of Liberal Justin Trudeau, we now can no longer be counted upon.
Before Canada, support came from the United States but that too deteriorated with the 2008 Election of President ‘Baroque’ Obama.
The bottom-line here is that the Israelis are now truly on their own.
And where to they find themselves?
The Middle East continues to burn while the neighbouring Palestinians have just launched another one of their infamous Intifadas. Innocent Israelis are being knifed and gunned down in their own streets.
And Heaven forbid if an Israeli strikes back – the anti sematic world has a hissy fit.
The United Nations then issues a raft of censures.
But dear reader, that is not the worst of it.
Thanks to ‘Baroque’, Iran now has a clear flight path to development of its long worked on Bomb.
To complicate things further, Iran’s ally on the ground – Russia is now securing Syria to become one of the new satellites and soon the Russian – Iranian Axis will control all things in that very volatile part of the World. At least until other Arab States successfully arm themselves with Atomic Weapons themselves.
And I haven’t even mentioned ISIS and the numerous other Islamic Terrorists groups that roam about almost at will.
And standing alone in the midst of all this is Israel -the Region’s only functioning democracy. They have taken a desert and transformed it into a garden; if the Arabs would only do the same, there would be peace in this very troubled part of the world.
Students of the Bible know that the Good Book predicts that the end of the World will begin with death and destruction in the Middle East – much like today.
No?
As I see it…
