When you were a little kid, you punched your friend and then said: “Truce, no hitting back.” I remember that anyway. We call that juvenile or childish humor. But what is happening in Israel today is no joke. Hamas has a terror cell planning to kidnap Israelis during Passover (which starts Monday night). Israel attacked the cell a couple days ago killing three. Hamas called it “a crime” and called for the world to condemn Israel.
Today, Hamas shoots an advanced, Russian-made Kornet-type anti-tank missile at a school bus which is the exact target and within eyesight of the terrorists. A sixteen year old student is critically injured and the driver is also injured. Within hours Hamas claims responsibility for the attack and also declares a ceasefire for all parties to commence at 11pm. Are you kidding me? You can’t make this stuff up. Can they be so perverse as to think they can fire missiles at children and then just stop and insist that Israel not hit back? They intentionally target civilians and believe it is their religious duty to kill every Jew eventually. It is stated clearly in their Charter.(What part of obliterate don’t we understand?) Yet, they continue to demand that the world punish Israel. If you wrote a novel with such a storyline no one would find it credible.
Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? Psalm 2:1
You may have heard about some Muslim group or other calling for a “day of rage”. It happens a lot in Israel. Lately it has been all the rage, if you will excuse my pun, in places like Egypt, Jordan, Syrian, Libya and half a dozen more countries. (Try Googling day of rage and count the countries.) It is an expanding phenomena that is spinning out of control. So, Psalm 2 clearly sees our day. The nations rage because they hate Israel.
It is a vain thing on two levels. One, it is in vain, because the plot will fail. Second, it is vain in the sense of vanity. The arrogance and self importance of the enemies of Israel is breathtaking in its scope. As we have pointed out many times from Psalm 83, the plotters’ real enemy is God Himself. They can’t get to Him, so they try to kill His people. Remember that this will include Christians just as much as Jews. Israel is the little satan and America is the big one. There is a common saying among the terrorist Muslims: “First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.”
Open your eyes America; wake up and stand up and speak up!
Oh, and you might want to read the rest of Psalm 2….
The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom
Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against Yehovah and against His Anointed, saying, ”Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us.” He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; Yehovah shall hold them in derision. Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, And distress them in His deep displeasure: ”Yet I have set My King On My holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: Yehovah has said to Me, ’You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession. You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve Yehovah with fear, And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.

Elisha Vision - Commentary 
Hidden by the Hijab (Veil)
15 04 2011Israel E-Card Volume 5 Issue 8
Topic #1 Hijab: The Gitmo of Muslim Women
There is something very hidden by the Islamic hijab covering of Muslim women. It is only hypocrisy to claim it is a pious modesty chosen by the free will of the woman. While there certainly are outspoken naïve Western converts who do indeed appreciate the modesty aspect, they are only useful idiots. The real sinister meaning is hidden behind the veil.
The radical Islamic culture dominated by men keeps half of their societies in virtual slavery. Their women are more imprisoned than the handful of terrorists housed at Guantanamo Bay. The dirty secret seems to be ignored by the West. Ataturk of Turkey banned the veil in 1924 at the fall of the last Caliph. He understood the danger. The legalization again in Turkey opens the door for complete domination of the radicals. How is this connected? The radicals simply require their own women to wear it, then single out friends who refuse, for persecution. They threaten and intimidate with beatings and even murder until more and more women wear it. Finally, they make it law that all women must be covered. It is a first step in establishing Sharia Law.
This has been a hot topic in Canada for years and was defeated by Muslim women appealing to Canadian Parliament. France is now facing the same issue. Inform yourself. Praise God for the Judeo/Christian foundation of equal liberty for women. Pray for eyes to see and ears to hear.
Topic #2 Meanwhile at the Center of the Planet
All told, since January 1, terrorists in Gaza have fired 269 rockets, mortars and shells at Jewish towns and villages in the South. That comes out to nearly three projectiles per day, every day, since the start of 2011. This week Gaza al-Qaida kidnapped an Italian journalist, then tortured and killed him while demanding that Hamas release an al-Qaida leader. Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum: “goal of this depraved band of outlaws was to spread chaos and anarchy in the Gaza Strip.” They then all blamed Israel. You can’t make this stuff up.

Yehovah is in His holy temple, Yehovah’s throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men. Yehovah tests the righteous, But the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates. Upon the wicked He will rain coals; Fire and brimstone and a burning wind Shall be the portion of their cup. For Yehovah is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright. Psalm 11:4-7
