Israel's Twenty Year Nightmare

My title was one of the headlines in the opinion section of the Jerusalem Post dated September 13, 2013 which was also the eve of Yom Kippur. The author was Caroline Glick who is one of their feature writers. The following are the highlights from this truthful and thought provoking article.

September 13, 2013 was also the 20 year anniversary of the start of Israeli's so-called Peace Process with the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO). Approximately one year later the PLO organized a massive terror offensive against Israel. The decision by Israeli's leadership to enter into this Peace Process with a terrorist organization has turned out to be a terrible mistake resulting in 1,500 Israeli lives lost plus large numbers of injuries.

The obsessive desire to elimate the Jewish people and the Jewish State is the reason there has been no peace between Israel and its neighbors. This hatred is irrational and all-encompassing. The Israeli public prior to the start of the Peace Process foresaw a nightmare and opposed it. More than two million Israelis opposed the Oslo Accords and what followed. This was the largest protest movement in Israeli history. Decorated military leaders warned that the PLO was a terrorist organization and had no intention of making peace with Israel. They warned that Yassar Arafat was a liar and a murderer.

History has shown all these warnings to be true. Israeli leadership made a terrible mistake! Currently, the United States government is trying to make key decisions concerning Syria while the majority of our citizens oppose any involvement. As a result, let us be those who pray on a regular basis for our leaders and for all leaders in the Middle East especially in Israel.

May The Lord Bless You And Keep You In His Care This Day And Each Day,
