The Rain of Missiles and Mortars on Israel Intensifies
Half a dozen Kassam MISSILES!!!… A building badly damaged and one Israeli injured… A miracle???… Or, maybe, just a statistical blip???…
In one day alone, 22 mortar rounds…
It’s a Matter of Choice Whether or not to Believe in the Presence of a Master of the Universe
It All Started Here…No Miracles Necessary…Everything Was SOoo Clear!!!
And they didn’t always make the right choice, did they???
But even back then, man had freedom of choice…
OR DID THEY???
The First Choice…
Life was easy… But “No Pain, No Gain!!!”(even back then)… So all good things must come to an end…On to bigger and better things…
Before that first choice…
Is This a Miracle???….Or Just Random Circling of Molecules???

From Seed Like This……..To Fields Like This


To This!!!…Life Itself!!!

What About This???…A Miracle???…or A Random Universe???
It’s all the SAME THING… A Creator, a Master of the Universe, a Divine Power that runs the world… Or a random, meaningless series of unconnected chaotic events… THE CHOICE IS YOURS!!!
You can choose to believe in what you chose to believe…
Parent and Child
The parent allows the child to participate in the running of the world… Even if the child is really not yet worthy or able… The parent wants to cultivate a close relationship with the child… To help the child grow in competence and self-worth… The parent helps the child to earn his place in this world… And the Next…
The model of our relationship with our Creator is that of Parent and Child…

The Drums of War Are Beating Loud and Clear to the North of Israel
Written by Marty Roberts on April 14, 2010 – 2:39 pm -It would seem that Syria is slowly, inexorably pushing Israel towards military confrontation…another war from Israel’s north. This, in the face of empty talk of peace by Syrian President Assad. Assad, another Arab leader claiming he wants nothing but peace with Israel, but with the caveat that it be peace, only if he is given everything that he demands…Unacceptable, of course, to side #2 in this “peace”, Israel.
Syria has transferred more missiles to the Hizbullah terrorist organization in Lebanon…this time, much longer-ranged Scud missiles, capable of reaching most of Israel. Hizbullah is openly dedicated to destroying the Jewish State of Israel.
Both Israel AND the US have warned Syria about the danger of supplying Hizbullah with weapons, so far, to no avail.
Israeli Army bulldozers were filmed building embankments north of the security fence with Lebanon, an apparent preparation for war on that rapidly boiling front. More likely would be strikes by the Israeli Air Force on selected Syrian and Lebanese targets threatening Israel.
The scent of war is strong in the Middle East today…
Barak: Syria-Lebanon arms transfer violates UN resolutions
The transfer of advanced Syrian weapons to Lebanon destabilizes the region and is a blatant violation of United Nations resolutions, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said on Tuesday in response to media reports that Syria recently transferred Scud missiles to Hizbullah.
Reprinted from JPost.com Yaakov Katz
On Monday, Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Rai reported that Damascus had transferred the missiles to Hizbullah and that in response, Israel had threatened to bomb Syrian and Lebanese targets.Barak said Tuesday that the IDF was closely following what was happening in Lebanon.
“We have no offensive intentions with regard to Lebanon,” he said during a tour of the IDF’s Tel Hashomer Base. “We recommend that everyone work to retain the quiet.”
Earlier in the day, Barak visited the Ramat David Air Force Base with Deputy Chief of General Staff Maj.-Gen. Benny Gantz and said the IDF was prepared for all of the challenges it currently faced.
At the same time, though, Barak said Israel needed to make efforts to achieve peace with its neighbors.

Try to Imagine What It Would be Like…Rockets and Missiles are Falling Daily on Southern Israel
Written by Marty Roberts on March 22, 2010 – 8:59 am -Rockets and missiles are falling on Israel EVERY DAY!! Do you understand what that means? These are not little firecrackers. These are not rocks and bottles. These are lethal ROCKETS AND MISSILES! People are being killed. It is expected that Israel will accept as part of our daily life the rain of ordnance upon our heads.
Can YOU imagine this happening in YOUR neighborhood?
How about just ONE lethal rocket falling out of the sky and whistling into the playground of your childrens’ or grandchildren’s pre-school?
What measures would you expect your government to take?
How would you feel if the world and the UN condemned YOU for taking action against those that were threatening your families?
How would you feel if the animals launching the rockets at you day after day were depicted by the world as the victims, not the murderers that they are? Aid convoys and millions of YOUR tax dollars funneled to exactly those same rocket-launching terrorists?
Might you want to do something to stop the flow of supplies for rocket-making into the area (a blockade of sorts, if you will)?
Would you understand it if, occasionally, while striking those that are shooting missiles at your children, once in a while, an innocent civilian or two on the other side was injured, or even killed? Would you understand this and, sorrowfully, accept this as a fact of life, given the evil surrounding you?
Try to imagine, just try to imagine…This is the daily reality of southern Israel…My home…and pray that it NEVER happens to you,,,

Qassam hits south of Ashkelon
No injuries or damage reported as rocket fire emanating from Gaza continues. ‘Terror groups taking advantage of PM’s trip to US,’ local council head says
Reprinted from YNet News Shmulik Hadad
A Qassam rocket fired by Palestinian terrorists in north Gaza Sunday night landed south of Ashkelon. There were no reports of injury or damage.The rocket landed in an open area within the Ashkelon Beach Regional Council’s limits.
“When they say that the rocket exploded in an open area, from our standpoint it is a field in which farmers work. Therefore, such attacks should be dealt with just as any direct hit on a house,” council head Yair Farjun said.
“I assume the groups that are firing the rockets are taking advantage of the fact our hands our somewhat tied because Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in the US for meetings. It is not my place to give the security establishment advice – it has proven that it knows what to do against the Palestinian organizations,” he said.
Ashkelon’s Deputy Mayor Shlomo Cohen, formerly a senior official with the Shin Bet security service, said, “We are witnessing a deterioration whereby the rockets are getting closer and closer to Ashkelon. This merely validates our fears and demands for the fortification of educational institutions.”
On Saturday four rockets emanating from the Hamas-ruled coastal enclave landed in open areas in Israel’s Negev region. Another Qassam landed in Palestinian territory near the Kissufim Crossing.
Saturday saw a rocket land near a kibbutz located within Sha’ar Hanegev Regional Council limits. There were no injuries or damage, but the IDF retaliated with strikes on a Hamas facility near the defunct airport in south Gaza. The Palestinians said 14 people were injured, among them two seriously.
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon crossed into Gaza Sunday morning as part of a regional tour aimed at reviving the Middle East peace process.
Ban was met on the other side of the border by a small group of people waving Palestinian flags. “I’ll go to Gaza to express my solidarity with the plight of the Palestinian people there and to underscore the need to end the blockade,” Ban told reporters on Saturday. He added that the siege was causing “unacceptable human suffering”.
During his meeting with President Shimon Peres Saturday evening, Ban called on Hamas to release Gilad Shalit, and Peres thanked him for scheduling a meeting with the kidnapped soldier’s Shalit’s parents. The UN chief also called on the Palestinians to end rocket attacks from Gaza, while urging Israel to lift the Gaza blockade.
