The American Christmas Tree in Front of the White House 2010
In spite of all the crisis, upheavals, and revolutions all around the Middle East, the G-d of Israel is also rearranging his players in the geo-political stage. Would we guess the Jews and the Los Tribers of Israel are still in control, on both sides of this international debate? According to rumblings coming out of the White House and Washington, the Jewish White House advisor to Obama on the Middle East, Dan Shapiro, will be nominated to be the next United States Ambassador to Israel. A Conservative Jew, who works at the National Security Council as the senior director of the Middle East and North Africa, Dan Shapiro, at the age of 42, is expected to bring fresh air to the American-Israeli political agenda as America’s ambassador.
Truly a Washington Insider, Shapiro was part of the inner dynamics of both the Clinton and the Obama White Houses. Currently a dynamic partner with U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell in America’s bid to forge an Israeli-Palestinian peace accord, according to Steve Rabinowitz, who worked with Shapiro, when Shapiro sat on the National Security Council during the Clinton era, and Rabinowitz was the Director of Design and Production for the Clinton White House, “Shapiro is truly a friend of Israel and wants to seek peace in that region.” Both are members of the same Jewish Conservative Synagogue in Washington.
According to William Koenig, Washington White House Press Correspondent and Director of the Keonig’s World Watch Daily International News;
Bill Koenig – “I fully concur (with Rabinowitz). Dan is a great selection, and is a super guy. ‘He told me last summer that he had read most of my book, ‘Eye to Eye’, on a flight to Israel’. ‘I have had three short visits with him in the last nine months. He wants to see Israel live in peace. I told him there would be a peace deal one day, but that there will still be consequences to those who divide Israel's covenant land.”
Koenig also concurred that the current American Ambassador, James B. Cunningham, (Envoy to Israel August 18, 2008 to 2011) “is not a friend of Israel” and is happy to see him leaving.
What the implications of this new appointment to Israel are is not totally known to date. What is known, the new Ambassador Shapiro will be a friend of Israel, whether he is still misguided on the biblical prophetic implications that the lands in negotiation, Shomron (Samaria) and Judea, are divine covenanted land and “titled deeds” given by G-d given to the Ten Tribes of Northern Israel now for over 2,700 years.
Now only that the G-d of Israel has mandated upon His Holy Name that these same tribes that were exiled for their rebellion, He will redeem and restore these Lost Tribes of the House of Israel back to the lands of their ancestral forefathers. (Ezekiel 36)
Outside of religious perspectives, will the new ambassador consider the strategic implication of giving up the mountainous heartland of Israel, so that his own people, the Jews, will become sitting missile targets from enemies totally surrounding them but also placing the Jewish people within their midst as now Islamic missiles may then be shot down upon them in close proximity to Jerusalem.
With the Middle East in chaos, and the true colors of the Palestinian State leadership to be revealed in the future as the Muslim Brotherhood gained further control of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and the Abbas administration of the Palestinian Authority becomes increasingly discredited, will it become evident to America’s new ambassador to Israel that there is no “Peace Partner” with either the Palestinian Authority or the Palestinian Chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza’s Hamas regime?
In the meantime, the American Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, called the Israeli settlements in Judea and the Shomron region “illegitimate” just a few days before the United States vetoed the United Nation’s Security Council resolution that condemned the expansion of Israeli settlements expansion as illegal. This viewpoint came in remarkable view, when Clinton was taped interviewed on Friday, February 18, 2011, with “This Week” anchor Christiane Amanpour when Clinton stated the following remark;
Hillary Clinton – “I think it is absolutely clear to say, number one, that it’s been American policy for many years that settlements were illegitimate and it is the continuing goal and highest priority of the Obama administration to keep working towards a two-state solution with both Israelis and Palestinians.”
On February 19, 2010, President Barak Obama reluctantly cast his 1st Presidential Veto (the 83rd veto cast by an American President) with America’s Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice. It was an Arab-initiated UN draft resolution condemning Israel’s “continuation of settlement activity” as an “occupying power” in “occupied Palestinian territories” that “included East Jerusalem”.
Gale Force Winds Toppled America’s National Christmas Tree on February 20, 2010
Was it not amazing that the next day, February 20, 2010 on the Jewish Shabbat, the United States National Christmas Tree, a 42 foot tall - 48 year old Colorado Blue Spruce from Pennsylvania was hit with gale force winds up to 60 plus mph. It snapped at the base in front of the American White House.
Attitude counts and it appears that the G-d of Israel was not humored. Was G-d giving the White House, American State Department and the Nations of the World a warning; Leave My People alone; or I will snap your National Sovereignty at the Trunk!
Neo-historians like Secretary of State Clinton, who choose to rewrite Middle East history according to their political agenda, may need also to reconsider who they are in their ancestry. On Hillary Clinton’s paternal side, she is a descendant of the English-Welsh, therefore, Hillary comes from the Tribe of her Patriarch Ephraim (Anglo-Saxon and Cymric) who gained the Covenanted Blessing from the Patriarch Jacob for his son, Joseph, in spite of Ephraim being the second born, to his older brother, Manasseh (America).
On Clinton’s ancestral maternal side, she is a descendant of the French-Canadians (Quebec) that were from the tribe of Jacob’s first born, Reuben. Yet, Ephraim also gained the Israelite’s distinction as being representative of the whole House of Northern Israel, today known as “Ephraimites of the House of Joseph”, when her Patriarch Reuben lost his birthright to Ephraim.
As a descendant of Patriarch Jacob’s first born son, Reuben, and a descendant of Jacob’s chosen heir for the covenanted birthmark and blessing, Ephraim from the House of Joseph, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is truly giving up her divine birthright. It’s sad to consider that Esau gave up his birthright and blessing to his brother Jacob for a “pot of porridge”. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton only wants a “pot of oil” from Islamic royal despotic billionaires that may not be here tomorrow after the Middle Eastern “democratic revolution” takes its final toll.
I wonder if America’s Secretary of State realizes that she is tribal member of the Lost Tribes of the House of Israel? Today, she is arguing the case around the world that her tribal homeland in Israel should be given to the Palestinian people. She already has the divine covenant and the legal contract to that land, and the promise of return, but the land cannot be sold! I wonder if Secretary Hillary Clinton would be willing to argue her case in the Heavenly Court to the Council in Heaven before the Supreme Judge, G-d?
It has been argued that the Palestinians were residents in Palestine long before there was a State of Israel, so therefore the Land of Israel is truly Palestinian land. It is argued that the Palestinians were the dominate culture in the region of Roman Palestine in the century before the Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel on May 15, 1948.
Yet, history will attest that of the residents of Palestine before the year of 1948, the Jews were called Palestinians and the Bedouin tribesmen of Arabian descent were called “Arabs”.
If the British had not violated the Mandate of Palestine and arbitrarily restricted the immigration of the Jews (British White Paper) into the region of Palestine, while keeping an open immigration for the incoming Arab settlers, the Jewish people would have had a solid majority. Yet, historically, here is the evidence by pro-Palestinian historians.

The Romans named the Roman Province of Judea, the Land of Palestine after the Jews were exiled from the land for the second time, by Emperor Hadrian of Rome. To seal this name, he placed the second “Abomination of Desolation” on the site of Solomon’s and Herod’s Temple and banned the Jews totally from Jerusalem.
When the Palestinian Mandate was created by the British, these lands were part of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman’s were defeated by the British and the French in World War I, and international law recognized that the right of the victor could redraw the borders of this new region.
Up to this time, the Palestinian Mandate was created by law and approved on multiple different legal international institutions for one purpose only; to create a homeland for the Jewish people. The Jewish people were also given the international right as being a “close settlement”. To this date, that right of “close settlement” was never arrogated, so the Jews have legal right to settle in Judea and Samaria.
Never in the history of modern nations has one nation’s legal opinion been put under such scrutiny; even the largest empire of the world at that time – The British Empire.
The 1917 Balfour Agreement
- British General Allenby accepted the Surrender of Jerusalem in 1917 at the Joffa (Damascus Gate) when the British Empire took Control of Palestine from the Ottoman Empire.
- The Creation of the British Mandate instituted by Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations at the Paris Peace Conference between the dates of January to June 1919
- Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations at the Paris Peace Conference were incorporated into the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919.
- The San Remo Conference on April 24, 1920 as “The British Mandate for Palestine.”
- The formal declaration of the Treaty of Peace (Treaty of Sèvres) between the Allied and Associated Powers and Turkey was signed at Sèvres on August 10, 1920.
- The “Defense of the Palestine Mandate of 1922” was written by British Prime Minister Arthur James Balfour
- This terms of the British Mandate incorporated the language of the Balfour Declaration were later approved and confirmed by the Council of the League of Nations on July 24, 1922.
- The Approval of the Legal Terms of the British Mandate incorporating the language of the Balfour Agree did not become operational of technically official until September 29, 1923.
Do we have to wonder why leaders of governments are not obeying existing international laws that have never been abrogated? Why are they trying to impose illegal rulings upon an independent nation living up to the international intent of the 1917 Balfour Agreement? Maybe it’s time to look and see! Connect the dots!
