Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

YouTube says this video has been removed…
They deleted it. Hamas holding 3-4 Israeli babies as human shields. New video of the kidnapped.
I was warned they will shut me off. I don’t know why?
Youtube deleting your video is a badge of honor. They do not like truth.
I left the above blank video. YouTube just deleted the video and warned me that they will delete my channel if it happens again.
It was the video that Hamas just released holding some 3-5 Israeli babies as human shields. Why?
Because they’re monsters, the worst of the worst , David.
I saw a story in the wretched Daily Mail which (of course) shows a BBC reporter sinking to his knees weeping over the children in hospital in Gaza.
The BBC is no longer fit for purpose. They are now blatant propagandists for terrorists. No such crying (staged?) for those children slaughtered in Israel. Heaven forfend they should show that! Or any of the other atrocities perpetrated on your population and others from other countries.
Media coverage sickens me. Those with eyes to see know exactly what is going on.
The ultimatum
Israel gives major hospital in Gaza two hours to evacuate everyone.
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/israel-gives-11-million-gazans-24-hours-evacuate-northern-strip-hamas-says-ignore
If you get on Telegram channel of Amir Tsarfati there is a video of Hamas rescuing bleeding babies and the babies are clearly plastic dolls and journalists videoing it as if it’s real. So disgusting
Be careful in your dealings with the YouTube people. They are corrupt and only seek to silence the truth.
Thank you. May have to alternate new channels and iP addresses. Or maybe ramble.
Rumble….yes! https://rumble.com/register.php
I saw that. And another showing Palestinian actors being kitted out with cuts and blood then placed for photographs as if dead.
Apparently Hamas released that video by mistake.
I say I see Someone else’s Holy Presence intervening in that “mistake”. 🙏🏻🇮🇱
I used to follow everything when I was on Facebook, years ago. Left, right, Aus, UK, US, Israel, mainstream, alternative. Everything!
Then I had a time when I already knew the truth about 3 different stories from the BBC that were factually wrong. They were the only ones I ever unfollowed. Because, I might disagree with opinion, but the most basic facts should remain constant.
One story from them was about Israel, when they put some metal detectors on the temple mount. The article was about how it all started. And they began with Israel taking action. They ‘forgot’ to mention that it actually started with Arab violence – I can’t remember exactly, but I think they shot at Israeli police ??
I’m pretty sure the other two wrong stories at the same time were from other parts of the world.
Anyway, my point is that they haven’t been fit for purpose for a long time.
They used to be the sine qua non, Rach, for impartial reliable news. The wicked thing is not just what they’ve turned into but the Belts have to, by law, pay for their propaganda and dreck and offensiveness with the tv license fee.
And that I find unconscionable.
Same problem in Australia. Our national broadcaster is the ABC. They are super left and of course with that comes such garbage. And we pay for that.
Then our spineless conservative party does nothing when they are in power. I would shut it down, it’s too far gone and is beyond reform.
Do you have a tv license?
No, it’s free to air.
Edit: they also have radio and internet and whatever else I can’t think of.
They are taxpayer funded, no matter who watches.
Right…
Rach…I see then Aussie government is going to destroy Koala habitats for this heinous bird killing windmills…
Yes, and I think there’s offshore to kill the whales, too.
Plus fields of solar panels to kill everything!
But then we can’t raise the dam for Sydney by a small amount because of some frog species that lives there – or something like that.
The whole thing is a giant fraud.
Also, several years ago, we cut down 200yo trees in Tassie to put in windmills.
–
Although, the real news for today is that we are having a referendum – we are voting on whether to become apartheid and give the Aboriginal people more entitlements. The earlier surveys suggest it will fail by a big margin. I hope that’s correct.
The ‘yes’ campaign is calling those of us who don’t want a division on race, racist. Obviously 🤦♀️
I knew wind farms were killing whales…it breaks my heart.
Remember those Save the Whales campaigns?
The whole climate idiocy will collapse under its own lies and pseudo science, but not before gutting much of God’s creation.
And speaking of gutting…I saw a tweet today from Zerohedge that the Canadian Supreme Court had gutted Castro Jr’s environmental plans, or much of them.
I checked with that site and saw no story, but they are always a day late and a dollar short…so we shall see. Everyday digit I’ve got is crossed.
Yes – I think I saw a similar headline. It might have also been from Zerohedge ?? Not sure.
Although I’m definitely seeing a shift, I can’t understand why so many people still haven’t woken up with the climate fraud. But I guess it’s the same with the covid stuff.
Good night and sweet dreams my friend.
Rach, I actually remember when the B.B.C. was respected. It used to be THE place to go to for real news from all over the world. In WW2, people relied on it completely and enjoyed the varied programming.
The News was so respected., the Nine O’ clock News in the evening being the news program everyone listened to. Classical music concerts from people like Dame Myra Hess, and symphony orchestras were enjoyed. There were many comedy programs to cheer people up. Hilarious at that time, ( probably nowadays they would have lost their flavor, with meaningful digs at certain people, and situations now long gone, would lose their spice.
There were comedy programs that everyone loved, and never would miss, eg Tommy Handley show, 8.30 pm every Thursday evening. There were many favorites. Jokes about Hitler and his ilk, newsreels in theaters showing strutting, goose-stepping Nazis, brought howls of laughter from the audience, and sing- songs in the the theatres, with live organ music and words on the screen, hit tunes or proud patriotic themes, kept the gloomy hardship, in perspective.
The BBC has become a weak, vacillating institution. Shame on them and their silly politically correct propaganda. How have the mighty fallen.
Found in the bin… 🙁
🙂
Goodness I remember Dame Myra…the Leeds Competition. One of the four great piano competitions in the world.
The Leeds, the Warsaw (Chopin), the Tchaikovsky, and the van Cliburn.
Watched the Leeds many times. And the BBC Young Musician of the Year. Cardiff Singer of the World was the one I really looked forward to. I’ll post this year’s final tomorrow.
Yes, it appears the left have taken over all the institutions.
Thankfully we now have a lot of alternative media.
The BBC refuses to call Hamas “terrorists”. Instead, they call them “combatants”. We have lost all sense of morality. A surprise attack that slaughters civilians and even babies … is a terrorist act. It’s not “war” … it’s not “combat” … it’s murder. Period. We don’t even need to cite God or Religion in the innate definition of morality. We all know what it is … unless one is mentally ill. We are born with a sense of right and wrong.
The Palestinian people have been carefully taught to HATE the Jews. To see Jews as subhuman. This is learned knowledge … in their souls, the Palestinians know that’s wrong. Unless they’re literally mentally ill.
Here is a version of the South Pacific song by a Brit singer I really like … Ian Matthews.
The defense secretary caller them out. Doesn’t tell them to stop it however. Spineless wet, as we call Conservatives.
Manipulating language is a tool of the left. Those with their morals and convictions intact need to reclaim it.
The older I get the more I love music from all those wonderful musicals, Kenji. Thank you for this from one of the best scores and lyrics ever written.
Here is my favourite from that musical….wish I could have found the original movie scene…oh well…
This Nearly Was Mine
Agreed. Fantastic music and lyrics. And I don’t care too much for musicals
and speaking of Ian Matthews … here is one of the BEST covers ever written
Niiiiice…
I’m gonna change my answer … I actually love the music and dancing in Oklahoma! And the flimflam man concept of The Music Man … for example. My brother was in our HS production of Oklahoma … as a dancing cowboy. So I gotta love it 🩷🤟🥰
Yes you do gotta! 😉😁
I am confused – which is it – humane or inhumane ?
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/10/hamas-releases-propaganda-video-claiming-humane-treatment-children/
Should have been in inverted commas, sis…
“humane”
UGH !!!
I know. It’s their “UN/victim” face.
Sepp is gone? Haven’t seen any posts for days now. I sure hope all is well with Sepp.
I asked if anyone had seen him in case I had missed him, patty. Worrying. He’s been absent without leave for about a week at least.
I must have missed that, Betsy. Glad that you brought it up and that you miss Sepp, too. Hope Sepp is back soon.
Yes, thank you patty and betsy 🙁 Also so is michael.
I think he was here late yesterday, Slowcobra…page two.
Hi betsy… yes, saw that post, thanks! But that was a michaelJ, and not a post similar to what michael would post. Thinking they are different folks.
Ahhhhh. Thank you. It seemed an out of character one. I missed the last letter.
Michael has a Jewish mother, if I remember correctly. I assume she lives stateside. I can only imagine how he is taking this.
Patty….the last comment I’m seeing from Sepp was on 10/1 at 9:18pm. 🙁
Thanks Ad rem. I worry when people suddenly disappear. Will be praying for Sepp and a speedy return.
Thanks, sis. And not good.
Not at all….🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕
Update Israel: Israel’s top Special Forces are already in Gaza. Collecting information as to the whereabouts of the kidnapped or maybe rescue some. Brave soldiers. They are probably dressed like arabs and can speak Arabic. It is probably the legendary Sayeret Matkal (Isralel’s Delta Force)
The word brave doesn’t seem adequate.
I got goosebumps just reading David’s comment!
🙂
Sometimes I am left with no words…as now… Not because I don’t want to reply, but rather I find it impossible to get hold of my emotions. I barely got those above out…………
Thank you for the news. They are Heros like Gideon! Halleluyah!
The best of the best, David.
God go with them!
I posted this also in the Presidential Politics group.
I have a feeling that some of the Israel Generals and other commentators who say going into Gaza on foot is a huge trap may be right.
Anyone here agree?
Anyone here have information to dispel my thoughts?
Especially now that Marine Special Forces are on the ground.
What think you all?
I kinda wish they would wait until 90 days after they shell and bomb everything standing to ground level, and blockaid any resources from going in until “they are not merely dead, but really most sincerely dead.”
I pray for Israel’s success verses Hamas, Hezbollah, Qatar, and especially Iran. They should, as a means of self defense, disarm Iran, and probably decapitate them as one would a snake. Where do all those Mullahs gather and sleep, anyway?
I especially recall George W.’s so called “gaff” when he was caught on tape singing to the Beach Boy’s Barbara Ann.
I thought it was one of the only time he was on the right track.
Send in the robodogs. Surely they have them.
That Israel has to completely eliminate its enemy militarily is in no doubt. This “issue” has got to solved once and for all, because the world will never be at peace while hatred rules mans heart. I agree that a ground assault without EVERY and ALL possible outcomes carefully calculated, assessed and prayed upon, can very well become a catalyst for global condemnation even reversal. We can be VERY SURE every alphabet agency media group, their paymasters, lackeys and black shirted boys will be just waiting for their orders. Orders to use all and every possible means to paint Israel as the “aggressor” and human “rights” abuser. Does not take a genius to see where all the violence can lead. Funny none of the above saw anything wrong with forcing everybody to stick who knows what into their bodies.
I am Israeli and I can answer. Yes we know there are going to be traps. There are always and we dealt with it in the past mostly successfully and we also had price when buildings were wired to explosives. IEDs under roads, terrorist coming out and back into tunnels. Israel developed some of the best means to deal with it.
In a recent operation in Jenin (West bank) we had D9 bulldozers grinding the roads before troops move on those roads.
Israel is the first if not only nation to develop the walk through walls doctrine. Instead of being exposed to snipers the explode small holes in buildings and move from building to building.
It took a while but now we have the means to demolish tunnels. In the last round in Gaza there was a coordinated move to cause Hamas to move into tunnels and blow them up from the air.
We have systems that protect tanks and armor personnel from missiles like RPG anti tank. It detects and explodes it in the air. Two rounds ago some armor vehicles were missing the system and soldiers died. It created a lot of noice in Israel and I am sure it was taken care of.
Our experienced soldiers know to detect wires in doors and roads. Wires to explosives. We have dogs going first into buildings and sniff explosives. We have advances vehicles that detect and explode IEDs.
But still. Israel is also number 1 in the world in coordination with air and if there is resistance we get jets or helicopters to take it down. Also very advanced unmanned drones that gives a better images to the advancing forces and can attack targets with precision. But most important is the spirit and we do have determination at this battle.
My dad told me a lot about the earlier wars in Israel. And what comes out is the spirit – you are so correct with this one.
Also smart and in the moment thinking. Some of the things that the defence forces have done are so impressive and beyond imagination.
And just an amusing side note – my dad really loves history and especially war history.
The History channel on TV has a series on Hitler that he’s been watching.
My mum says to me – you have no idea what it’s like, I have Hitler in my living room every day! 😂
(She also has exceptional knowledge and understanding of international politics. I’m very lucky to have such great resources as my parents)
LOLOLOL!!!!!!
😂😂😂😂😂
You mention D9’s and the first thought that pops into my mind is ‘Rachel Corrie’. Let me apologize for American simpleton, leftist, do-gooders who believe they are “saving” The Palestinians or something.
Make it uninhabitable like Sodom and Gomorrah using any means necessary.
Salt the land
Can anyone explain me why would YouTube delete my video and warn me that I will be completely shut off if it happens again? I put there a video that Hamas published holding 3-4 Israeli babies as human shields and one of them is saying something in Arabic. Probably threading to kill the babies.
Do I need to open a Telegram channel to post videos etc…?
My guess is that because you are on the side of the good guys, you tube will delete you because the you tube is NOT on the side of the good guys, and will control/take away free speech
You are exposing the truth, in other words.
YouTube is a rank censorship machine. Do look into Telegram…or Rumble…
Most of my videos I copy from telegram to my computer and upload to YouTube and then share with you. If I knew a better way I would.
Ad rem above has left a link for you for rumble!!!!
PLEASE CHECK! 💕🇮🇱
Thanks.
See above. Youtube rejects truth and deletes information providing that. If you can get a rumble account it would be better.
I can.
Just a brief comment, if you are able to use a rumble link, when posting a video here using the Rumble platform please write a very short description of what the video will be about because Rumble does not show a screenshot image of the video like you-tube does so many, probably most, here, will not click on a link they don’t know what the link will lead to.
Thank you. Your posts have been very helpful these past few days.
Ok
WHY
was the President of the United States
shut down
on another (leftist) communication system?
Keep up the good work, David !
-God speed💖
Everyone at Alphabet/You tube are hardcore leftists … hard core. And it is part of their orthodoxy to hate Zionists. They say they don’t hate Jews … just zionists … just Israel. So they won’t show any videos that portray Israelis as victims. It’s that simple. I live in the SF Bay Area with these people … they are scary hateful … really vicious. Why? Because they know they hold 100% of the POWER in this State and currently in DC
Wow.
Very simple. They are batting for the enemy.
Giving your potential adversary a public mention of an admirable human trait makes them take a step back and evaluate their every move. Will my next step measure up?
Once someone said I was very nice. I think about that all the time now.
Alright … I admit my man-crush on Rod Stewart … he just so smooth … and his voice !? Unreal texture. This is dedicated to all the “mature” conservative women who post here … you wear it well … Mrs. Onassis got nothing on you.
Love how at the end the narrator comments on Rod using a cheat sheet for the (rather complex) lyrics … reading it off an A4. You silly Brits … who calls a piece of letter paper “A4”? Too funny. And yeah, they wouldn’t let Marc Bolan get away with that. Oh my … better times … even though the runaway inflation of the 1970’s wasn’t any fun.
I just noticed an interesting lyric in this song …
Remember their basement parties, your brothers’ karate
The all-day rock ‘n’ roll shows?
The homesick blues and the radical views
Haven’t left a mark on you
You wear it well
A little outta time, but I don’t mind
That sums up just about ALL the Rock music I listen to … “The Homesick Blues and the radical views haven’t left a mark on you” … so True. The radical views haven’t left a mark on me. But we can still listen to Homesick Blues anyway … 😜😂
In Britain, black cats are good luck…just so all y’all know😉
I love the Brits … sorry, but the traditional (white, “Saxon mothers son”) Brits who built the most beautiful … attractive (it’s attracting every other race, creed, and religion on the planet to invade Britain) culture … ever on the planet.
My heart is broken for what has happened to that country and her institutions. I love the people and miss my friends and family, a source of sadness for me 💔
Yes you have to watch the gov’t doesn’t get its fingers in there also, they’ll gladly pick that one too!
Its infuriating, monti….
Taxman
George Harrison
Perfect!
It blew my mind when I learned the AMAZING guitar solo in this Indian-influenced tune. It’s ALL George Harrison … except the guitar solo … which McCartney wrote in perfect sync with the musical theme. McCartney was an amazing talent.
He’s not gone quite yet..
I was only referring to his lack of THAT level of musical output. Yeah … I’m not dead yet either 😝
EVENNING REFLECTIONS
Amen, Amen🙏🏻
Israel Update:
-A raid into an area close to the border in Gaza collecting bodies of kidnapped. Apparently the bodies were seen from the air.
As sad as it is but we need to raid for the dignity of the deceased. Hamas holds on to Israeli bodies with an attempt to replace it in exchange for live terrorists. They are still holding bodies of two Israeli soldiers over four years or so.
-Senator Schumer is coming to Israel. Regarding assistance or Israel. God help us! Too many Democrats are involved. Today it started as I expected and Kirbie (Speaker of the DNC) whatever the spelling of his name is and his post? Said:”we didn’t know or didn’t agree to the evacuation of Gazans from North Gaza. I think Israel is making a mistake that it’s waiting too long.
Once the body count in Gaza will raise to 10,000 the Liberals will turn on us with all their networks. Liberals love victims. That is why they sympathized with us when our children were slaughtered. While supporting terrorists or terror sympathizers for decades.
-Israel Main Stream media repeatedly uses the headlines “The Battle for the Homeland”. Just to show you how all sides of politics are now uniting the people in dire time.
-Biden spoke with the families of the American kidnapped for an hour and a half. God help the kidnapped. So sad.
-I want to share a thought. I am positive that in the Israeli Cabinet that manages the war there is a dispute if to attack first at Hezbollah. Some are moderate and some are not. Israel has bad experience in getting attacked first and has historically good experience in surprising the enemy as in the Six days war where they were preparing and threatening and didn’t expect a preemptive strike. If Israel moves first there can be an overwhelming beginning with eliminating their top leadership.
Additionally if an opportunity to take down their leadership will arise then it will be very tempting and Netanyahu will have to decide. Unfortunately I think he will not do a move because of American pressure. But I am not a prophet and Bibi may be against the wall now and do unexpected moves.
Evil, EVIL!!!!!!!!
Lord,receive the souls of those of Your flock whose lives have been cut short by the wicked. Grant their families that peace which passeth all understanding so they will know those they love are safely back home in Your eternal care.
Father have mercy, Father have mercy🙏🏻
Amen.
I pray Bibi will decide well for Israel and provide a surprise for the minions of Iran.
Update: You may already know. President Trump posts on his social media a support post for the IDF and best wishes.
A total solar eclipse has been regarded historically as a portent of a major change, like the death of a sovereign or the end of an empire. There is one happening tomorrow.
Good Googly Moogly!

This is an unusual post.
It’s personal and I am not sure it’s needed at this time. But it will give you an overview of history from my father’s perspective. There is no better way of understanding people and history than from people who lived it. It’s something you will never get on Wikipedia or Main Stream media. No agenda. Just my family’s story. It can explain how we feel and why. I posted something like this years ago so if you follow you may know.
Bless his soul my father died at 93 old a few years ago.
In the 1930s he was a young boy and teenager. He lived in Vilna that was then Poland and now Lithuania. It was a major Jewish area. He had parents, a sister, grand parents, uncles and cousins , friends etc…
He was already a member of the zionist movement who intended to come to the Holy land. He was on the right wing side of Jabotinsky (the ideological founder of the right wing and the Likud party of Israel now days).
So the Nazies arrive and he is about 17 old or so. He decides to pick up bicycle and escape. He persuades a neighbor to join. They are riding miles and miles towards Russia. The Nazies already past them but they keep riding and hiding.
It’s a time of war and it’s not simple to cross the border to Russia. If I remember right he bribes someone at the border and crosses the border. He joins the Russian army. He joins the Jewish Division which counted thousands of jews who joined the war. He joins in a role of dealing with bombs and Bobby traps. A very dangerous job. He gets injured and goes to a hospital. Somehow he is ready to return and a Jewish nurse is asking him to stay a few more days and arranges it.
He stays and his Division was sent on a suicide mission to stop the Nazies at an impossible place and the Division is wiped out. Arguably the motive of sending them to this mission was motivated by antisemitism. Within the commotion of war he lies about which unit he is from and manages to arrive into Russian artillery.
He is getting trained and commands a group of soldiers and cannons. He is telling me about Russian brutality towards Nazies. They tell him that he is “a different kind of Jew”. They are educated antisemites but as one of them the feeling is different. The Nazis have a tank with superior range the tank is killing lots of Russians. My father is sent with a team and a small cannon to get close and shoot the Tank. They unload the cannon and start to move the barrel towards the tank. The tank recognize them and move its barrel towards them. The tank shoots first and misses past them. They shoot and also miss. The tank shots again at hits in front of them. They shoot and miss too. My father knows that now that they missed past them and in front the third shot will hit. He tells the crew to take cover and they get a direct hit. They manage to return to base.
The war is over and he is securing a right to visit his home. He goes home and discovers that Polish people are living in his home. He lost literally everyone. Parents, sister, cousins, grandparent. Everyone! He is maybe 18 or 19 old alone in the world. No family no community. Alone!
He goes back to Russia and decides it’s time to go to Israel. But leaving Russia is not possible for a young army man.
He goes to the border and bribes the commissar (boss over that area and city). If the Commissar betray him it is an execution.
He passed the border and joins a group of fleeing jews and they pretend to be Italians soldiers hostages returning home. They are heading to Italy but they don’t speak Italian and could be cough at any border in Europe and send back or jail.
They arrive to Italy and go on a ship that is full of Jewish war refugees heading to Israel. The ship is completely packed to the max. They arrive to Israel which is occupied by the British. The land is called Palestine. Jews and arabs who live there are all called Palestinians. The British in an attempt to appease the arabs limit immigration. sending back to Europe ships of jews who survived the Holocaust. Sometimes jailing them in a nearby island Cyprus and sometimes jailing them in Israel and very few are just let in.
My father is jailed inside Israel in the known Ako Prison. He showed me his prisoner ID.
Eventually he is let out. In Israel there is the established army that is cooperating with the British and two underground resistance organizations. The Etzel and The Luchi. My after join the Etzchel that was commanded by Menachem Begin who was later a Prime Minister. I don’t know what he did in the Etzel aside for a Prison break to
Etzel blew up the British Headquarters in Jerusalem that lead to the British Leaving Israel. But I don’t know his role. I never asked.
1948 the declaration of Independence after the British left. The UN divided Israel’s land in half. Some for arabs some for jews. The Arabs disagree and the next day Local Arabs, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon Saudi, Yemen, etc… attack Israel. Leader of the Arab League is promising a “historic massacre and flowing blood that will be remembered for generations”.
A few hundred thousand jews many of them arrived form the Holocaust and traumatized and lost families, no much weapons or leftover weapons from Europe. They fight one of the bloodiest wars and win. The local arabs were scared at some point and the Arab nations said they could leave and come back after the jews are dead and divide the taken lands. About 800,000 arabs flee and Israel would never lat them be back. The Arabs call it “The Nakba”. I think it means the disaster. There are stories as if it was an ethnic cleansing but no one forced them. In fact my father told me that Israel closed the gates and stopped the fleeing which he didn’t like. This is the source of the Palestinian refugees issue that they keep alive generation after generation.
The arabs lose land. Israel expands to include what is now called the 1967 borders and the world is trying to make israel go back to those borders and give Palestians
My father joins the first officer course of the IDF. Not sure when exactly. He is from the founders of the Artillery of the IDF.
He moves up the ranks and becomes the commander of the Israeli Artillery over the central command that is the East Border of Jordan. It was then the lands that are called by Arabs and Democrats (LOL) “West Bank” and by us “Judea and Samaria” (the biblical zones of our forefathers). Also Jerusalem is at this border.
The 1967 borders have the West Bank occupied by Jordan. Gaza and Sinai desert is Egypt. The Golan Heights is Syria. There are a lot of bombing from Syria on North Israel communities. Snipers from East Jerusalem on jews from West Jerusalem. The divided city. We never had quiet. There are Palestinian terror attacks and massacres going back to way before 1948 when the land was divided. You can Google for example the Hebron Massacre from 1929 that the whole Jewish community (West Bank city) was wiped out.
So Arabs are amassing on the borders and are into a frenzy of “throwing the jews to the sea”. Israel is stressed. Mass graves are dug for the upcoming disaster. They are closing in and shut off the Red Sea area the Port. Israel decides to attack first and in a massive successful 6 days the defeat Egypt, Syria, Jordan and a few others who joined including the local arabs.
I was born in 1965 so it gives you my personal context. Israel now captures more land. East Jerusalem and the West Bank are released from the Jordanians. Sinai desert that is about the size of Israel at the south is captured from Egypt. The Golan Heights are captured from Syria. Things are looking good as the Golan was a strategic impossibility to defend the north and the north was suffering a lot. Jerusalem and West Bank are giving defensible borders. Without the West Bank the narrow area of Israel is only 8 miles from arabs to the costal cities. I lived there and one time did this trip by foot as a child.
So now you get the War of Attrition 1967 -1970. Israel fights Egyptians, Syrians, Jordanians, Palestinians and we even killed 180 Cuban soldiers and injured 250 who were deployed by the USSR.
In this war my father goes with his Jeep over a booby trap and the guy next to him is killed and he survives. Some years later again with a Jeep the steering wheel get disconnected from the wheels and a bus runs into him and he is seriously injured but survives. He retires the army in 1972 and opens and builds a large civilian factory along with a Jewish rich friend from France.
In 1973 Israel is surprised from Egypt and Syria. The Syrian border is in a dire condition and he is deployed there as reservist. He told me that he saved soldiers who were not digging themselves in the ground when he ordered digging before they were bombarded. Israel wins this war and after the arabs lose again they realize they can’t win and you start to see some peace treaties. They also redirect the resistance to Israel through the Palestinians and all of a sudden there is a demand for Palestinian state and it is now “occupation “. I never remembered any demand a call for a state and complaint about occupation when I was younger and they were occupied by Egypt and Jordan. They could live under muslims.
My father had an early pension and lived long after this. Israel straggle didn’t stop. There are two wars in Lebanon, endless terror attacks and two Intifada (uprisings) with thousands of Israelis die from suicide bombs and explosions in buses and restaurants etc…. Palestinians never wanted peace. Never recognized Israel’s right to exist at any borders.
There are 21% of Israel’s population, Palestinians who are within the recognized borders of Israel and they are the only muslim who are living in a democracy in the Middle East and Arab world. Our universities are full of them. They are vary noticeable in hospitals in Israel as doctors and nurses. Many great restaurants in Israel. A few mixed cities.
Whether or not they are loyal is questionable. They vote for parties who support terror groups and our leftish Supreme Court allows to exist. Some of them or many of them want to co exist because they don’t get the same brainwash of the Palestinians of the West Bank. None of them would ever agree to replace their Israeli passport. They are not required to do military service so practically they have less duties than jews.
I will stop here as I originally wanted it to be mainly my father’s story.
My mom was in Auschwitz concentration camp and it’s a whole different story.
My father educated me to never be the “diaspora (out of Israel) kind of Jew. To not be a victim. To be strong and proud.
To never dwell in the past and move forward. This is about the story of Israel that you see now.
Shalom, Love and God Bless.
Your information is very good. Thank you for sharing.
You and I are half a generation apart, but I have some similar family stories. My grandfather fought in the Israeli war of independence – but they left Israel before the 6 day war.
Thank you for sharing your story. I have a couple of links from a few years ago that provides a history of Israel in varying detail. A fascinating read.
David, you honour us with the story of your father. Those who could tell us the horrors of war in general but WWII in
particular are all gone.
What I will call modern history is no longer taught in our schools. The tragedy of that has led us to where we are now.
The media who strangle the accuracy of what is ongoing in Israel do not understand. They have no idea. They are criminally ignorant. War has not touched them yet, and I pray mightily it will not touch the rest of the world.
I fear the answer to that prayer will not be to our liking.
You have given us a great gift…what your father, bless his memory, passed down to you so we can share it with others who regrettably do not believe that yes, history does repeat.
Bless you always, dear sir. I believe with my whole heart that it is not by chance that you came to post here. We pray with you and all who are caught up in the terrors of war. May our Father in heaven in His infinite mercies grant your country and her people a victory so complete that your enemies will know who protects you all.
Shalom, my friend 🙏🏻🇮🇱💕🕊
You touched me again. May you be blessed today tomorrow and forever.
David, thank you for the history of your father. First hand information is very valuable and must always be preserved, if possible. It is sometimes hard to discern the truth, even from history books, because the victors record the history the way they see it!
Actually most of the things I understand about Israel comes from the Bible. A delightful woman from Israel, Yaffa McPherson, who had come to the States, published a Hebrew Course, Easy Hebrew. The course was wonderful and she taught me much.
When she went to school in Israel, in the early 1950’s, she said their history book was the Bible.
I have always understood the word ‘history’ come from ‘His Story’. Meaning, of course, YHWH’s, creator of heaven and earth, story.
Shabbat Shalom and blessings.
Got the yard mowed today. Lots of mulching of pine cones and needles along the south side and mulching of Cottonwood leaves in the back yard and along the north east corner.
Last warm day for awhile and perhaps this year with a high of 75.
Rain tonight and the forecast high tomorrow is in the low 60s and goes down from there. Glad I got the yard mowed today.
School has certainly changed over the years
My sibling did not know that Iran is a center for transsexual surgeries. And he is fairly well informed. Apparently it is a way to get around condemnation of gay people; they do the surgery and then gay transvestites can become acceptable.

That is disgusting. And notice how they said that “society” labels boys and girls … just so they can sell stuff to them. So these crazed leftists have to proselytize the children that “capitalism is hurtful”. This is SICK! If this were being taught to my grandkids … I’d pay for their private Christian school.
Amen
Amen
Amen.
Amen…
Amen.
Amen.
Amen.

Good Night Psalms. Heavenly Father, as I lay down to rest, I find solace in Your presence.

WMC Research substack, with links to his source material, titled:

I like that the article makes a small reference that K2 and D may help prevent or delay Alzheimer’s.
Good night all. We don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but we know God is in His Heaven and will show us the way to stand against the evil which believes it has defeated good. It has not and never will. It is written. Blessings to everyone 🙏🏻💕
