“Massacre of Women, Children at Hebron”
“Arab Horde Slaughtered Little Children during Mad Orgy in City”
“Jews dragged from their Homes to Perish by Knife”
…just in case it’s not clear, that’s from before the modern State of Israel existed.
It was on August 24, 1929, in what is now known as “The Hebron massacre” sixty-seven Jews plus 23 college students) were killed in Hebron, the city where Abraham bought the plot of land called Machpelah where in a “Cave of the Patriarch” became the last resting place of Abraham and Sarai, Isaac and Rebekah, and Jacob and Leah, where the body of Rachel was buried in Bethlehem, when she prematurely died at the childbirth of Benjamin.
Hebron, whose Hebrew meaning was “habor” which meant friend reflecting off the Qur’anic epithet for Abraham as Khalil al-Rahman meaning, “Beloved of the Merciful” or ”Friend of G-d”. It ancient fortification go back as far as the Early Bronze Age in the 17th to the 18th century. It was originally a Canaanite royal city associated with the Hittites. In the early conquest of the Land of Canaan by the Israelite Hebrews, it was one of the two centers of control by the Anakites , who were the descendants of the ancient Nephilim, the amalgamation of the “Sons of G-d” with the “Daughters of men” that became the ‘Giants of Old.” (Genesis ) Here was the ancient biblical city of Kiriath-arba or the “city of four.”
The Cave of the Patriarchs at Machpelah in Hebron
The biblical Hebron is located at Tel Rumeida, while its ritual center was located at Elonai Mamre where Abraham met with the angels of G-d. It was the military Israelite military General Joshua, Judah or Caleb who according to the command of G-d wiped out all the Canaanite inhabitants in the region, and thus lays to rest the attachment of the modern Palestinians that they were the ancient Canaanites, for as the ancient script stated, “destroying everything that drew breath, as the L-rd G-d of Israel had commanded.” It was Caleb that was inheritance to Hebron and its surrounding villages that drove out the three giants, Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai that ruled the city.
It was later that King David reigned from Hebron for seven years, where he also was anointed king of Israel that became one of the principle centers of the Tribe of Judah and one of the six traditional “Cities of Refuge. If there was a reason why the Jewish people have such an attachment that they will risk their life to live in this town, we may now know the answer.
The City of Hebron in 1929, the Year of the Massacre of the Jews
The Arabs in the year of 1929 were incited by false rumors that the Jews were massacring Arabs in Jerusalem and were seizing and taking control of Islamic holy places there in the old city. The Jewish homes were pillaged and the synagogues were ransacked while the Torahs were destroyed as 133 Jews and 110 Arab were killed. Hundreds were wounded, severely injured yet countering the oft repeated enmity between Arab and Jews, many of the 435 Jews that did survive were hidden and protected by local Arab families. Those that were left were evacuated by the British forces, yet returned again by 1931.
The massacre in Hebron and later in Safed shot like lightning throughout all the Jewish communities in Palestine and then around the world. Here was the beginnings of the Jewish paramilitary organization called the Haganah, the forerunner to the Israel Defense Force. According to narrative on Zionism by Michelle Campos, this “event became ‘a central symbol of Jewish persecution at the hand of the bloodthirsty Arab” and was “engraved into the national psyche of Israeli Jews.
This was especially those Jews who resettled in the city of Hebron after the region of Shomron and Judea were retaken from the Jordanians after the 1967 war. According to Hillel Cohen, the massacre of the Jews by the Palestinians became the “point-of –no-return in the Arab-Jewish relations and effectively sealed the union of the Mizrahi Jews (ancient roots in the Islamic Middle East) to joining forces with the Zionist Jews of post-World War II Europe. In a world of unknowns as 250,000 Palestinian Muslim live surrounding 500-850 Jews in Hebron is truly a tinderbox where a lit candle could erupt a conflagration that could erupt around the world.
Understandably, these events occurred twenty years before the rise of the State of Israel during the British Mandate, eighty five years ago. The tenuous relationships between the Jews and what were called Arabs, for “Palestinians” in those days were the Palestinian Jews.
Today, the entire State of Israel is still in mourning for the massacre of their “Three Sons, Yaakov Naftali ben Rachel Devorah, Gilad Michael ben Bat Galim, and Eyal ben Iris Teshura.” It appears that the G-d of Israel is repeating His “Prophetic Rehearsals” to repair what was done 85 years ago to “His Chosen People” and complete the process of redemption. So today, the “Drama of the Ages” is still unfolding.
This time, on July 3, 2014 a young Palestinian youth was abducted, killed and his body was left in the woods surrounding Jerusalem. Immediately the blame was cast upon the Jews for creating what has been called a “revenge killing” for the deaths of the three Hebrew youth.
The streets were aflame with the tension high as stone throwing Palestinian youth in the Shuofat district in the annexed region of East Jerusalem were engaging face to face the Jerusalem military police.
While the three Israeli seminary students were being buried in the city of Modi'in, dozens of Israelis, some chanting "Death to Arabs", blocked a road in Jerusalem while the Palestinians in another part of Jerusalem were clashing with IDF soldiers.
This was after the 16 year old, Muhammed Abu Khudair was reported missing and cam recorders in Shuafat, an Arab suburb of Jerusalem documented a teenager “pulled into a vehicle and possibly kidnapped” and whose body was later discovered in the Jerusalem woods nearby; murdered.
And so today, a replication of the 1929 Massacre it being watched unfolding with almost the same pretense and the violent Palestinian reaction while the rest of Israel watches with supreme caution. We have to ask, “who are the oppressors and who are the oppressed.” Today, Palestinians live across the streets from the Jews. They buy and sell their homes, and in many cases take possession of homes, claim them as their ancestral forefathers, and tie up the present owners with lawsuits who have what appeared to be clean “Deeds of Trust.”
Let us read from Wikipedia wrote about the 1929 Massacre of the Jews in Hebron, and as we read see if we can perceived with spiritual “eyes that can see” a new unfolding of an old historical drama of the past that needs rectifying:
The Plight of the Hebron Jews losing Property Purchased over 200 years ago
Wikipedia – “The city of Hebron holds special significance in Islam and Judaism, it being the site of the Tomb of the Patriarchs. In 1929, the population numbered around 20,000, the majority of whom were Muslim Arabs. A small but significant community of around 700 Jews, a number living deep within Hebron but most renting houses from Arab proprietors on the outskirts, also lived there. The Jewish community was divided between recent Ashkenazi immigrants and an older population of descendants of Sephardim who had inhabited the town for centuries. Ashkenazi Jews had been established in the town for at least a century.
The two communities, Sephardim and Ashkenazi, maintained separate schools, worshipped in separate synagogues, and did not intermarry. The Sephardim were Arab-speakers, wore Arab-dress and were well-integrated, whereas many of the Ashkenazi community were yeshiva students who maintained 'foreign' ways, and had difficulties and misunderstandings with the Arab population.
Since the Balfour Declaration of 1917, tensions had been growing between the Arab and Jewish communities in Palestine. The Muslim community of Hebron had a reputation for being highly conservative in religion. Though Jews had suffered numerous vexations in the past, and this hostility was to take an anti-Zionist turn after the Balfour Declaration. generally, a peaceful relationship existed between both communities.
In mid-August 1929, hundreds of Jewish nationalists marched to the Western Wall in Jerusalem shouting slogans such as The Wall is Ours and raising the Jewish national flag. Rumors spread that Jewish youths had also attacked Arabs and had cursed Muhammad. Following an inflammatory sermon the next day, hundreds of Muslims converged on the Western Wall, burning prayer books and injuring the beadle.
The rioting soon spread to the Jewish commercial area of town and the next day, a young Jew was stabbed to death. The authorities failed to quell the violence. On Friday, August 23, inflamed by rumors that Jews were planning to attack al-Aqsa Mosque, Arabs started to attack Jews in the Old City of Jerusalem. The first murders of the day took place when two or three Arabs passing by the Jewish Quarter of Mea Shearim were assassinated. Rumors that Jews had massacred Arabs in Jerusalem arrived in Hebron by that evening. Hillel Cohen frames his recent narrative of the incident in terms of the murder of the Jaffa Awan family a Jewish police constable Simcha Hinkis.
A Ransacked Jewish Synagogue in 1929 in Hebron
At about 8.30 am Saturday morning, the first attacks began to be launched against houses where Jews resided, after a crowd of Arabs armed with staves, axes and knives appeared in the streets. The first location to be attacked was a large Jewish house on the main road. Two young boys were immediately killed, whereupon the mob entered the house and beat or stabbed the other occupants to death.
Cafferata appeared on the scene, gave orders to his constables to fire on the crowd and personally shot dead two of the attacking Arabs. While some dispersed, the rest managed to break through the pickets, shouting "on to the ghetto!" Requested reinforcements had not arrived in time. This later became the source of considerable acrimony.
According to a survivor, Aharon Reuven Bernzweig, "right after eight o'clock in the morning we heard screams. Arabs had begun breaking into Jewish homes. The screams pierced the heart of the heavens. We didn't know what to do… They were going from door to door, slaughtering everyone who was inside. The screams and the moans were terrible. People were crying Help! Help! But what could we do?”
Soon after news of the first victim had spread, forty people assembled in the house of Eliezer Dan Slonim. Slonim, the son of the Rabbi of Hebron, was a member on the city council and a director of the Anglo-Palestine Bank. He had excellent relations with the British and the Arabs and those seeking refuge with him were confident they would come to no harm. When the mob approached his door, they offered to spare the Sephardi community if he would hand over all the Ashkenazi yeshiva students. He refused, saying "we are all one people," whereupon he was shot dead along with his wife and 4-year-old son.
From the contemporary Hebrew press it appears that the rioters targeted the Zionist community for their massacre. Four-fifths of the victims were Ashkenazi Jews, though some had deep roots in the town, yet a dozen Jews of eastern origin, Sephardim and Maghrebi, were also killed. Gershon Ben-Zion, for example, the Beit Hadassah Clinic pharmacist, a cripple who had served both Jews and Arabs for 4 decades, was killed together with his family: his daughter was raped and then murdered, and his wife's hands were cut off.”
For a moment of time, let us put aside our human rational person and let the spiritual person within us step forth. What we know from the esteemed rabbanim of Israel, there is nothing that occurs by change. The G-d of Israel creates goodness and creates evil. If we believe that the Almighty One of Israel is the Supreme Ruler of the Universe, then His Hand is controlling the nations of the world right now while at the same the forces of darkness in the Universe are engaging the forces of Light. This parallels the ancient drama, “As Above, so it is Below!”
While the three Israeli seminary students were being abducted, beat up, tortured and their lives snuffed out, the warrior forces of the Al Qaeda called ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria), were mopping up their strategic gains in Northern Iraq at Mosul, the ISIS Al Qaeda Sunni terrorist branch in Hebron called the ‘Dawlat al-Islam’ claimed credit for their barbaric acts, their comrades of terror were part of the rapidly advancing forces now at the border gates between Iraq and Jordan. At the same time, another arm of the ISIL (Islamist State of Iraq and the Levant) was streaming towards the Saudi border. Yet the ultimate goal of ISIL and ISIS will be to crash through the Jordan-Israeli border at the famed demarcation line at the Jordan River and the Jordan River Valley Plateau.
While the international media was reporting last week on the injury to Abu-Bakr al-Baghdadi, it was on Friday, July 4, 2014 that the Self-Proclaimed Islamic Caliph Ibrahim Ameer al-Mumineen [Prince of Believers] Abu-Bakr al-Baghdadi strode into the Great Mosque of Mosul called the Al-Dur Mosque and gave a 20 minute prayer and reading in the mosque. With the announcement this week of the new Islamic Caliphate, we will not have to wait long to see where the finger of the Divine will stir up the prophetic future, for it appears we are now seeing it unfold before our own eyes.
Only the Jordan River Valley will be able to deter the ISIL warrior terrorists as they head towards Jerusalem. Will the 3 million Palestinian people living in the West Bank raise up to welcome the Al Qaeda ISIL as together they turn upon the Jewish people in Jerusalem, the Jewish Settlements of Shomron and Judea and beyond to Tel Aviv?
If the Palestinian in the West Bank don’t, will we again see pictures this time of piles of Palestinian bodies executed by a firing squads until terror and fear will transform the rest of the Palestinian Jihad into the reign of terror upon Israel?
How is this different than in the 14th and 15th century when a different historical drama was unfolding? In those days, the Islamic “Scourge of God” called Tamerlanewrecked utter destruction all across the Levant from Palestine until they entered Baghdad and massacred there almost the entire population? Tamerlane was written about in BibleSearchers Reflections in the article titled, “The Final Kingdom of the Mongolian Empire and the Rise of the Modern Communist States of Russia and China.” So as we read:
Gur-e Amir Mausoleum of Tamerlane in Samarkand
BibleSearchers Reflections – “Tamerlane first returned to remove the Mazaffarids from power in Shiraz (1383) and capture the city of Isfahan (1387). He threw out the Jalayirids from Baghdad (1393) and moved up to conquer the Golden Horde (1394-1395). There Tamerlane settled his claim to the sovereignty over the lands of the Caucasus.
In 1397, he returned to recapture the city of Isfahan in the Iranian lands of ancient Media and moved over towards Pakistan and onward to the conquest of Delhi, India (1398).
By 1399, Timur had pushed against the gates of the Ottoman Empire, ruled by Bayezid, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and the Mamluk Sultan of Egypt. This conflict began in part because the Ottoman Sultan was beginning to annex the territory of the Anatolian Turkmen and Muslim rulers. The Sultan’s forces were also on the verge of conquering Constantinople, seeking to overthrow the capital of the Christian Byzantine Empire.
Timur has already proclaimed his suzerainty over the Anatolian territories and so he invaded into the heartland of the Middle East. With the aid of war elephants that he had obtained in India, Tamerlane conquered Aleppo (1400). As Tamerlane headed to Damascus, he sent a message ahead to invoke the fear of the Damascus Islamic population.
"I am the scourge of God appointed to chastise you,
since no one knows the remedy for your iniquity except me.
You are wicked, but I am more wicked than you, so be silent!"
--Spoken by Tamerlane Khan before the Sacking of Damascus
The Mamluk Sultan in Cairo sent a delegation to negotiate with Tamerlane. As they left, the city was invaded. The Mamluk army was conquered, the Umayyad Mosque was destroyed by fire and the Muslims in the city of Damascus were totally massacred. Their heads were piled in a field outside the north-eastern sector of the city walls that today is a city square called, burj al-ruus, or the “tower of heads.” The only residents spared were the artisans that were deported as captives to his capital at Samarkand. There the palaces, mosques and monuments were erected as an artistic legacy of Timur the Great.
Even though Tamar was known as a student of the Qur’an and a Muslim, it was during this campaign that Tamerlane became known as the public enemy of Islam. May we rather suggest that Tamerlane was the public enemy of Sunni Islam with his religious leanings towards Shi’ites and Sufi mystical Islam?
One hundred fifty years earlier, the Mamluks who seized power in Egypt in 1250 CE were the most famous of this powerful Turkic-Mongolian clan from the Russian steppes that were given by Genghis Khan to his son Juchi. The Mamluks were kidnapped or taken from debt ridden families in the Russian steppes and sold into slavery in Egypt. Converted from their Buddhist roots into Islam, they trained and formed the powerful cavalry ranks of the Egyptian army to serve as an outsider force directly under the service of the Sultan of Egypt.
The Mamluks eventually became the power of the throne. In 1250 when the Ayyubid sultan, as-Salih Ayyub died, his Mamluk general, Aybak killed the heir to the throne, married the sultan’s widow, Shajar al-Durr (Arabic: “String of Pearls”), and started the first Mamluk dynasty. It was called the Bahri dynasty or Bahriyya Sultante.
Assisted by the sacking of the capital of the Abbasid Caliphate in Baghdad in 1258 CE by the son of Genghis Khan, the power of the second (Damascus) of two great Sunni dynasties went into decline. At the same time, the power of the Mamluk Kipchak Bahri Dynasty (1250-1382) ascended in Islamic prominence as Cairo Egypt became the Mamluk capital.
It was in 1377 that a revolt erupted in Syria that spread from Damascus to Egypt. By 1382, the city of Cairo was taken over by the Circassian leader Barakah also known as Berkuk (Az-Zahir Sayf ad-Din Barquq (1389-1402). He was proclaimed the Sultan of Egypt and the new Circassian Burgi Mamluk Empire rose to take the place of the deposed Bahri Sultan Dynasty of Egypt.
Berkuk was later expelled from Cairo in 1389 CE but returned to recapture the city in 1390 just as the warning signs came from the north that the “Scourge of God” was returning to the Middle East. As the Egyptians watched Aleppo and Damascus destroyed, the new sultan enraged at the treatment of the people of Damascus, raised up a massive army prepared to fight Timer the Lame. When Tamerlane heard of the army of the Sultan of Egypt, it was reported that he “fled” while Berkuk arrived to expel the remaining Mongol-Tatar armies. On the heels of the flight of Tamerlane in 1399, Berkuk died from causes
unknown.
Tamerlane, the “Scourge of G-d”
Yet Timur did not flee. He had a prior city to conquer. Unknown to the military forces of Berkuk that were preparing to attack Tamerlane, Tamerlane returned back east to the city of Baghdad that he had earlier thrown out the Jalayirids rulers in 1393. He now returned and finished his task.
Like Hulegu Khan thirty three years earlier, Tamerlane invaded the city of Baghdad on June 1401 CE and according to historians, 20,000 of its citizens were massacred. Timur had earlier ordered that every Mongolian warrior show his loyalty to him by bringing back to him at least two severed heads from the Baghdadi residents. According to Islamic legends, many of his warriors carried heads from prior campaigns in order to assure that there would be enough heads in Baghdad to present as trophies to the “Scourge of God.” The last of the Mongolian presence would soon leave the Middle East and the lands of the children of Isaac and Ishmael forever.
Then in 1402 CE, Tamerlane captured the port city of Smyrna from the Christian Knights of Rhodes. Christian rescue ships were quickly dispatched from Constantinople that earlier came under siege from Tamerlane’s forces. As they approached Smyrna they were met with the terrifying nature of Tamerlane’s military tactics. Floating on the ripples of the sea by night, they saw hundreds of lights. As they approached they saw candlelit dishes that carried the severed heads of the entire Christian garrison of Smyrna’s Knight of Rhodes floating out to sea.
Tamerlane had been urging a battle against the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire ever since 1399 CE when he arrived into Syria in revenge for the Sultan who tried to annex the territories of Tamerlane’s homeland of the Turkmen and Muslim rulers in Anatolia. As Tamerlane arrived into Syria, he sacked Aleppo (1400), Damascus (1400) and Baghdad (1401)…”
The thirst for blood and the mindset of revenge has been a poignant part of the Islamic past such as the Shi-ite leaning Tamerlane wiped out the Sunni Muslims in the city of Baghdad. It is no wonder that onlookers from the outside, perceive the entire culture not to be a “Culture of Peace” but a “Culture of Death.” Relooking at the 1929 Hebron, Jerusalem, and also the Arab riots in Safed that were blamed upon “Zionist activists at the Wailing Wall” was clearly identified by Ricki Hollander, a Senior Analyst at CAMERA (Committee for Accuracy in the Middle East Reporting in America) as a propagandistic historical fabrication against the Jewish people. Its blame of origins for fabricating these claims laid at the feet of Haj Amin al Husseini, The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.
The Mufti of Jerusalem was the one of the most virulent haters of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel. Out of the anti-Semitic loins of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem there arose the fundamental radical Islamic sect, Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda, the late President of the Palestine Liberation Organization Yassir Arafat (Mohammed Abdel Rahman Abdel Raouf Arafat al Qudwa Al Husseini), who was also thenephew of the Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini.
Also into this exclusive club the HAMAS terrorist organization in Gaza, a part of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the current leadership of the Fatah Palestinians are all virulent children of the “The Mufti of Jerusalem.” Yes, and all of them would never in their lifetime be a “Peace Partner” with the State of Israel. Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu has his history correct on that one fact.
The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini
Also documented is the Destination Yisrael article titled, “The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem admits in testimony, the Jews did not steal Arab land in Israel” is an incredible 1937 interview to the British Peel Commission. As the article begins:
Destination Yisrael – “One of the most incredible chapters of earth history was the virulent hatred of the European Nazi forces in Germany in collaboration with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Mohanned Effendi Amin el-Husseini. It was he, who organized the Muslim Nazi SS 13th Division called the “Hanjar” and smaller units organized that included the “Croatian” 21st Waffen SS Division called the Skanderbeg and the “Albanian Muslim” 21st Waffen SS Division known as the Kama. This was documented in the BibleSearchers Reflection article, titled, “‘The Mufti of Jerusalem’ and ‘The Muslim Brotherhood’ – The Fight to Own Jerusalem and the Land of Israel.”
Yet, here is the incredible testimony of The Mufti of Jerusalem on January 12, 1937 when he documents in testimony for the British Peel Commission that the Jews did not steal land from the Arab Palestinians but by the year of 1920, the time of the “Occupation” meaning the British Palestine Mandate, the Jewish people had already purchased 1,500,000 dunams of land in the Land of Israel which is 375,000 acres. The Mufti also testified that the land was not bought by “forcibly acquired-compulsory acquisition of land”.
That kind of ruling behavior was the action of the Ottoman rulers and not the Jews. Also the Mufti admitted that any evictions done were by absentee landlords who chose to sell “land over the heads of their tenants, who then were forcibly evicted”, and that the majority of these tenants were not Palestinians but Lebanese…”
Imprint these facts within your minds as we now return to the testimony of Ricki Hollander with (CAMERA) the Committee for Accuracy in the Middle East Reporting in America:
Rickie Hollander – “In September 1928, a small group of Jews erected a “mechitza” (a divider to separate men and women during prayers) for Yom Kippur prayers at the Western Wall. The British forcibly dismantled the divider, but Haj Amin al Husseini [the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem] used this incident as a pretext to incite Muslims. He accused the Jews of attempting to seize Muslim holy sites, including the al Aqsa Mosque.
A virulent propaganda campaign calling for jihad against the Jews resulted in the frequent beating and stoning of Jews worshipping at the Wall and culminated in widespread, murderous riots across Palestine in August 1929.
August 15, 1929 was Tisha B’Av, the day on which Jews commemorate the destruction of the Holy Temple. Thousands of Jews marched to the Wall to protest British restrictions on Jewish prayer there, and to reaffirm their Jewish connection to the holy site. They displayed their nationalistic fervor by singing Hatikvah (later to become Israel’s national anthem).
The following day, mobs of armed Arab worshippers inflamed by anti-Jewish sermons, fell upon Jewish worshippers at the Wall, destroying Jewish prayer books and notes placed between the stones of the wall. On August 17, a Jewish boy was killed by Arabs during ensuing riots in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Bukharan.
According to the Davar newspaper of August 20, 1929, incitement against the Jews was rampant, especially in the Jerusalem and Hebron area. Rumors were spread that Jews had cursed Islam and intended to take over their holy places; Muslims were told that it was their duty to take revenge. “Defend the Holy Places” became the battle cry.
On August 23, more than 1000 Arabs launched attacks on Jews throughout Jerusalem. Forty-seven people were killed. This was followed by widespread attacks on Jews throughout Palestine. Again, the British forbade Jews to organize armed self-defense units and within several days, 133 Jews had been killed and 339 wounded. Arab attackers sustained high numbers of casualties (116), almost all of whom were killed by British police trying to quell the violence. Jewish leaders reported that Arab attacks showed evidence of organized warfare; Arab assaults on Jewish communities extended from as far south as Hebron to Haifa, Safed, Mahanaim and Pekiin in the north. A state of emergency was declared and martial law was imposed by the British.
Additionally, the Palestine Inquiry Commission appointed by the British Government to investigate the riots unequivocally declared that “the [violent] outbreak in Jerusalem on August 23rd was from the beginning an attack by Arabs on the Jews for which no excuse, in the form of earlier murders by Jews, has been established”. In fact, beyond the predictable agitprop employed after the 1929 riots by the Palestine Communist Party, it’s difficult to find any source parroting the claim that ‘Zionist provocations’ caused the anti-Jewish violence.
Indeed, there appears to be no historical dispute regarding the fact that Arab mobs, fed by antisemitic incitement (including the propagation of conspiracy theories by Muslim religious leaders), engaged in brutal, unprovoked attacks on Jewish men, women and children over a series of weeks. However, some Jews reportedly sang Hatikvah at the Western Wall. So, according to the (British) Guardian contributor, it wasn’t antisemitic incitement and widespread anti-Jewish racism, but nationalistic Jewish songs which provoked the Arabs to kill them.”
Take a deep breath and reflect upon all that has been written. What is obvious, there is no one that will protect the Jewish people. They know this but the world does not comprehend. We are now in a very momentous era of human history. According to the sages of Judah, the era of mankind is about over. We can continue to fight for our rational world, but the “World to Come” will be revealed in the near future as the era of the Messiah unfolds. The Holy One of Israel has thousands of prophecies now that can be re-enacted for one last time, as the Grand Finale of the Drama of the Ages is here and will finally be competed.
As the modern day warriors of the “Scourge of God”, are now racing across the Levant, we are now witnessing before our eyes a multitude of prophetic vignettes and within this unfolding drama, the G-d of Israel is now demanding of the Jews of the House of Judah and the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel to settle their differences, rectify their past abominations against HaShem, the G-d of Israel and each other before the era of the messiah begins.
Not only that, the reason why the relationship between the House of Israel and the House of Judah are in a low state of emuna is because each one of us has to willingly seek to repair the breaches, pick up the last sparks of holiness, and seek to become truly “One Nation under G-d”.
The Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel are in a progressive movement. Some of the northern European tribes are more recalcitrant and it will take a Pole Shift and absolute destruction before they can “get the drift”. Yet many others are already in a paradigm shift that is leading them to want to identify with their historical and physical past with the patriots and pioneers or Judah who have so diligently sought to preserve not only their physical and spiritual past, but also ours.
This is a spiritual connection that the G-d of Israel is directing within the hearts of both houses of Israel and Judah. Yet, since it was the House of Israel who rejected the G-d of Israel, His House of Worship in Jerusalem, and also his Mechoquek, the Jewish lawgivers of Torah enlightenment, then it is up to us to take the first step, ask for forgiveness and prepare to live our lives in the spiritual culture of Judaism. If not, then we will have Al Qaeda at our doorstep in America and Europe.
It was the former IDF commando, Rabbi Lazer Brody who recently wrote in “Lazer Beams” the following titled, “A Time to React”
Rabbi Lazer Brody – “An entire nation stood mourning at the open graves of Gil-ad, Eyal and Naftali, united in grief, aching and stunned at the youthful glow and purity, the loving hopes of parents shattered in an instant by bestial murderers who took advantage of the innocent boys' trust in them. The memory of the three will remain in our midst and the events of the past few weeks will accompany our nation in Israel and the Diaspora for a long, long time…
One who fully believes in the truth of his or her actions isn't deterred by anyone or anything. For example, even if the entire world scoffs at our observance of one of the Torah's commandments, a true believer, the baal emuna, cannot be swayed.
With the above principle in mind, we can now understand the current Israel government's utterly paralyzing fear of world opinion and hesitation in reacting assertively. Amazingly, our country's level of emuna and power of deterrence are directly proportional - the lower the emuna, the lower the deterrence. Why the hesitation?
The politicians simply lack belief in our Divine-sanctioned right to our holy homeland. Despite the fact that Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frenkel and Gilad Shaer have been torn from us in the most cruel and barbaric way and the south of Israel is again under siege, the politicians in their pitiful indecision have reacted by letting the IDF bomb empty buildings in Gaza (sic), despite the fact that Hamas now openly admits its part in the 20+ rocket-barrage that hit the south of Israel in recent hours.
With Hamas-like radical Islam spreading like wildfire and the ISIS having taken over entire sections of Iraq and Syria, Israel's sterile gloves - both military and spiritual - need to be removed. Just as our Torah and emuna should be the products of total dedication, and not of mediocrity, so should our power of military deterrence, which in recent years has sorely eroded.
Our neighbors in this tough side of the globe respect power - both the power of faith and the power of dedication, which sometimes requires us to take up arms. Their dark-side faith leads to Jihad and atrocities; our holy peace-loving and humanitarian faith must be stronger than theirs. It's time to react without holding back, both in our observance of Torah and in our defense of our country.”
Can we expect that the “children” of Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini and Hassan al-Hanna will change and learn to worship the God of Israel? Let us listen the voice of the Psalmist:
Psalms 83:1-8 - “Do not keep silent, O G-d! Do not hold Your peace and do not be still, O G-d! For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; and those who hate You have lifted up their head. They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, and consulted together against your sheltered ones.
They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”For they have consulted together with one consent. They form a confederacy against You; The tents of Edom and the Ismaelites, Moab and the Hagrites; Gebel, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assyria also has joined with them; they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.”
As a “leopard cannot change its spots”, so also the descendants of the ideology of Hassan al-Banna and Haj Amin al-Husseini will not change their hatred for the children of Jacob until the “Omens” of the God of Israel are fulfilled. As the prophet Zechariah foretold of the descendants of the Philistines (Palestinians):
Zechariah 9:7 - “And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: (a picture of blasphemy and violence being removed) but he who remains alive, even he, shall be for our God, (Hashem) and he shall be as an Aluf (docile or friendly element of the population) in Judah, and Ekron (northernmost of the 5 cities of the Philistines) as a Jebusite (the people who controlled the city site of Salem, when David conquered it, and these people lived in peace with Israel).”
Shall we pray for that day?

The day is coming soon when Hashem the G-d of Israel will stretch forth His great hand of judgment and cleanses the earth from the great pollution of man upon Planet Earth. He will take away the “blood oaths” from between the mouths of the Palestinian Arabs, He will restore the Land of Israel back to “Am Yisra’el”, that means both the House of Joseph (All Ten Tribes of the House of Israel), and the House of Judah. He will then redeem and restore His own “sheep” back into a living relationship with Himself. If you are chosen, as a Lost Tribal Member of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, your destiny is to return to your Homelands first in Shomron (Samaria), Israel.

Here is a joint Orthodox Jewish and 10-Triber Vision to bring awareness of the imminent fulfillment of the Biblical Prophecies regarding the Redemption of all Israel (12 Tribes Re-conciled and Re-United). This super Event of all Times will entail Establishing the Shomron (the Ancient Bible Heartland of the Patriarchs) and the Judean Wilderness as part of the Land of Israel, and preparing the “Land” for the Return of the Lost Tribes of the House of Israel and then the Redemption of All Israel.
