After writing to my friend in Israel to check on him and his family – here is what he answered me. I got permission to post his response on this blog without divulging his identity:
“Yes, we are ok.
Israeli intelligence is of a high level. They know when a group is on its way to make a terrorist attack and they stop them before the attack is carried out; they have detailed plans for every scenario. There is an extremely high level of security on the Gaza border with cameras and constant monitoring by day and by night, with drones and other devices, with quick responses to every threat before it can take off the ground… and now, suddenly, Gazans are crossing into Israeli bases on their bikes, with sandals, and are celebrating at leisure in front of the cameras, finding the time and the freedom of passage to transport not individuals but GROUPS of abductees BACK to Gaza as well.
Israeli Elite units are very highly trained – they have achieved some incredible feats: Let them loose in enemy territory and they know exactly what to do and who to take down. The best minds, the best training, the best equipment. They can be transported to location at lightening speed. But somehow Hamas are walking around freely in Israeli towns and not an Israeli soldier is to be found there for hours. If they had given only one of our elite units (and we have MANY excellent units) their guns and instructed them “go in there and get them” they would have made short work of any terrorists, but somehow, they didn’t even arrive on the scene.
Israeli intelligence can be so precise that they were teaching their methodologies to the US at one point!
Something stinks!
It’s yet another eye opener for me. Someone will have to convince me the twin towers came down because of boiling oil from airplanes before I believe that nothing stinks here.
But since the Israeli government took part in the orchestrated pandemic and knowingly unleashed deadly vaccines against their own civilians and soldiers while hiding all injury reports – I hardly put anything past them. Instead of shepherding the flock, they’re ravenous wolves.
This is, in my opinion, an Israeli version of what the American government did to its own citizens in 9/11.”
Brethren,
This is the opinion of a Messianic pastor who has lived in Israel his whole life. Yesterday I kept asking Tim where the IDF was. We expected their presence to be visible and massive.
I wonder how many others are feeling this way.
We want ANSWERS!
The tragic loss of innocent life is shown on a video through the lives of a family held captive in their own home on United With Israel. Too many have been taken captive and killed without resonse from the IDF.
It’s unthinkable. I don’t think this sadness will ever leave me. I can’t stop crying
I agree with him. I do think the government knew. They have the best intelligence in the world! How could they not know? Prayers for Israel.
This is a tragedy to the utmost degree of tragedies. I am grateful your friend and his family are ok, tho life as they have known it is changed forever. There is something that stinks here, to be sure. He is correct that the Israeli government has sold out its citizens with the jabb…..they do appear (as many other governments) to be ravenous wolves. I am so very sorry for this awful tragedy. Only Our Lord can make something good come from something so horrific. May many come to know the Christ in the aftermath of this destruction. And may He come quickly.
Maranatha…..
Yours in Christ…..
Your comment made me cry. I’ve been crying almost non stop over Israel. The thought of the government turning on the people there is so horrific, but isn’t that what is happening here? And isn’t that what they did to the people about the clot shot?
Yes, unfortunately our government has carried out this murderous plot on us, as well. The weapon wasn’t a bullet, it was a vaccine. We MUST trust Christ to bring good out of all of this. And we must draw closer to Him as these days are becoming more evil and dark than we ever expected we’d see. Our Savior has to carry this load for us. (Come to me all that labor and are heavy-laden and I will give you rest.) We are not capable of making sense of any of this with our natural eyes. It is difficult to comprehend even with our spiritual eyes. Let us draw close to Jesus Christ and remember we live in His Kingdom here on this earth (in victory, even tho it may not FEEL that way) until He takes us home. Truly may many come to Christ during this time. He is our only hope…..and the only hope for the entire world.
It’s ridiculous and I don’t know how Israel’s leaders expect anyone to believe they were caught by surprise especially considering 50 years nearly to the day was the Yom Kippur battle.
Come on, something is WAY too fishy here.
Looks like this was known and ignored until it happened. Why? So Israel would have a great excuse to destroy Gaza then Iran?
Wars and rumors of them are clearly happening.
There is a concept in the military known to every general & officers as
“ collateral damage.” Sometimes civilians are sacrificed in war for the furtherance of an operation. I have no way of knowing if this is happening in Israel. It could give justification for a future plan. I am in no way defending the awful events, just trying to get some understanding of it.
Was Pearl Harbor such an event? I don’t know, but some say so. Was 9/11? Were there ulterior motives? I’m not a general, But I have read about the Old Testament wars. God’s judgment was the deciding factor, whether Joshua,David, or Saul was involved. I do not wish to hasten into judgment upon those whose burden it is, to decide how to best defend Israel. I just know that things aren’t always what they seem. There is comfort in knowing that nothing surprises the Lord of Heaven’s armies, Who is also The Prince of Peace. So many questions, but in due time, we will know His answers. Peace& Shalom to you in the meanwhile.
There is no doubt they knew it was coming . This could be the justification they can use to now attack their enemies in the region. The first casualty in every war is the truth !
