Abbas rejects Quartet call to talk about “peace”

Peace talks initiative does not include preconditions of settlement freeze or return to 1967 borders, PA Foreign Minister Riad Malki says.

Abu Mazen wants the UN to grand him a statehood, but not to set up peace talks with Israel.

The Palestinian Authority is unhappy with the Quartet’s latest initiative to launch peace talks with Israel because it is “incomplete,” PA Foreign Minister Riad Malki said on Saturday.

He pointed out that the initiative, which was launched over the weekend after PA President Mahmoud Abbas submitted to UN General-Secretary Ban Ki-moon an official request for full membership in the UN, does not call for a cessation of settlement construction an a pullout to the pre-1967 lines.

The only new thing that that the Quartet carries is a time line for discussing the issues of security and borders, Malki said.

The Quartet urged Israelis and Palestinians to return to the negotiating table based on a new time line of December 2012 by which a final status agreement would end the conflict.

The Palestinians, meanwhile, have their eyes set towards Monday, when the UN Security Council is scheduled to discuss Abbas’s application for full membership of a Palestinian state.

My comment:

The Arabs lost the war, and they have also lost the peace. Still they want to treat Israel as the looser, and tell the Jewish state what to do.

Even before there can be any “peace talk”.

The truth is that there is “peace” on the ground in Israel. Simply because the losers have no power of the the free and democratic state of Israel.

What is there to talk about?

The Arabs wants a re-match. They want to delete the victory that Israel got in 1967, when they liberated the city of Jerusalem  and the Biblical heartland of Israel.

By a mortal mistake, Israel listen to a kingdom in Northern Europe. The so called Oslo-accords were only a trap set up by anti-Zionists, to get Islamic terrorists back into the Mountains of Zion.

Still Israel is willing to give their enemies a new chance.

Israel have again invited the Arabs for “peace talks” without setting up pre-conditions. Israel could have set up pre-conditions, but have chosen not to do so. Simply because Israel knows that the way forward is to address security concerns by simply: Talking about them.

Israel could have set up valid pre-conditions for any talks. The Jewish state could have demanded that the Arabs accepted the 1967 military defeat, and recognized Israel’s right to exist with the post-1967 borders. These are the borders that have brought a de facto situation of peace at Israel’s borders.

No foreign military power have the guts to challenge the IDF, using traditional military forces. Islam has found away around the supreme Israeli military power, by using terrorism against civilian targets.  Only cowards do target women and children, because they do not have a manhood willing to fight with equals.

What a shame the Arabs have put on their own heads.

As Christians, we should not promote revenge, neither lethal force used against our enemies. Even God is slow to anger, before he judges and finish off his enemies. So should we be, walking in the likeness of the Messiah.

Bill Clinton: Jewish settlers are “anti-peace”

“The most anti-peace are the ultra-religious, who believe they’re supposed to keep Judea and Samaria.

Bill Clinton failed to make peace in the Middle East. He blames Jewish settlers.

These are the words of former US -President Bill Clinton.

He do not accuse only the ‘ultra religious’ of being ‘anti-peace”. Clinton also attacks the Jewish settlers, whom the former President call “territorialists”.

“This people just showed up lately and they’re not encumbered by the historical record,” Clinton said.

Yearning for leaders of the past, Clinton said, “The two great tragedies in modern Middle Eastern politics, which make you wonder if God wants Middle East peace or not, were Rabin’s assassination and Sharon’s stroke.”

According to Clinton, “The most pro-peace Israelis are the Arabs; second the Sabras, the Jewish Israelis that were born there; third, the Ashkenazi of long-standing, the European Jews who came there around the time of Israel’s founding.

My comment:

Bill Clinton is supposed to be a Christian, following his wife to the Methodist Church. The Clinton couple also have a Jewish son in law.

Still they do not believe in the Hebrew Bible. Because if Clinton believed in the Bible, He would not have demanded that Jews must leave Judea and Samaria. The Jews are Jews because they are from Jude’a.

To blame Jews who build schools, kindergartens and synagogues on the monuments a few kilometers north of Jerusalem, is an insult to everyone who believe in the Bible.

Because God of the Bible says He dwells in Zion. If God is a “territorialists”, Clinton should not become an enemy of God.

Jesus will return to East Jerusalem, and establish the millennium Kingdom. Regardless is Clinton end s up in the wrong camp or not.

A Jew who is a Jew inwardly will return home to Zion

The state of Israel is under attack from Jews in the diaspora.

The calling of an obedient Jew, is to return home to Zion. Another fulfilment of the Word of God.

Isi Leibler is former Jewish leader in the Diaspora, who have made aliyah. In an featured OP Ed he raises serious questions with the “Jewishness” of Jews who attack the state of Israel.  Leibler speaks about “Jew haters” of Zion.

This is what Leibler writes:

Isi Leibler warns against Jews who reject Zionism as basis for their "Jewishness"

” We have grown accustomed to the ravings of the Jew haters of Zion – the loony left who identify with Hamas and Hizbullah rather than their own people, the post-Zionists who seek to undo the Jewish character of Israel and the bleeding heart liberals who make excuses for the criminality of our neighbors and condemn us for defending ourselves”

“But what is more frustrating is an emerging new trend, involving even well-meaning friends of Israel, primarily liberals, who demand that as Jews and “partners” of Israel, they are entitled to partake in determining Israeli security and defense related policies”.

“The most notorious of these is “J Street” in the US which shamelessly lobbies its government to pressure Israel to adopt policies contrary to those determined by our democratically elected government.”

“Despite living thousands of miles away and not subject to the consequences of the policies they promote, they have the gall to insist that they are more sensitive to the security needs of the Jewish state than we Israelis. Being “genuinely pro-peace,” they purport to be acting in our best interests by exercising “tough love” and urging their president to bludgeon us to toe their line. Their hubris and arrogance is mind-boggling”.

My comment:

Romans 2:28-29

A man is not a Jew if he is only one outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man’s praise is not from men, but from God

Who is a Jew inwardly?

I guess, that is a Jew who obeys God of the Bibles plans for the Jewish people?

Deuteronomy 30:3
then the LORD your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he scattered you.

Since God of the Bible, speaks about a restoration of the Jewish people in their ancient homeland, I guess those “Jews” who refuse to be restored, live in disobedience?

Not so strangely, many of them end up with the enemies of God of Israel.  They have deleted their own calling, rejected their only true Jewishness.

US city fines family for hosting Bible studies

It is outrageous that Chuck and Stephanie Fromm were forced to stop Bible studies in their California city home.

Chuck and Stephanie Fromm were forced by the US Police to stop Bible studies in their home.

A Christian attorney finds it outrageous that a California city has forced a home Bible study group to stop meeting until they obtain a permit.

San Juan Capistrano homeowners Chuck and Stephanie Fromm were fined USD 300 for holding a Bible study in their own home and were told by officials that ongoing gatherings of three or more people require a conditional use permit.

The Fromms were warned that they would be fined USD 500 per meeting if they continued to hold the Bible studies.

The family’s subsequent appeal to the city of San Juan Capistrano was rejected, and Brad Dacus’ Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) is taking up the case.

“It’s so ironic that a city like San Juan Capistrano, with the famous mission it has that was founded upon faith and for the purpose of faith, would be so overtly hostile and intolerant towards people wishing to simply meet in their homes and to pray and study the Bible together,”

Dacus laments.

The Bible study group, which met on Sunday mornings, did not generate any disturbance in the area, and the family’s neighbors have written letters to relay their support for the Bible study.

“We believe, in the end, we will prevail, because courts seem to be somewhat amiable and tolerant when it comes to people and what they do in their own home, especially when it comes to issues of religious observance or religious gatherings,” the PJI president.

“We not only have the First Amendment of the Constitution on our side, but we also have the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000, which we at the Pacific Justice Institute have used effectively on many, many cases.”

Meanwhile, the city of San Juan Capistrano maintains that the Bible study is not allowed without a permit because it constitutes a “church.”

My comment:

The house Church has always been the ultimate frontier of true Christianity. Since most of the public “Churches” has been taken over by the politic correct, Bible obeying followers of Jesus must find other arenas to preach the gospel.

The Government has limited powers to control what you do inside your own private house.  Who you can not invite for breakfast, is still not regulated by law.

The a city in California has stated to behave like the Islamic Republic of Iran, is another alarming sign of Sharia Laws being enforced in America. The Government wants to be sure, that you do not defame Muhammad when you invite your neighbor for dinner. You need a license to preach, and you need permission from the Government to study the Bible.

  Matthew 5:11-13
“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

A rainbow alliance of secular and religious people will fine you and persecute you if you do not join the final  Bible less “peace movement”, that strive for social issues and improvement of the environment on the planet in the name of “god”.
