Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom-----
Yes, doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result, IS insanity. Almighty God is in charge; He needs to be followed, not the confused, useless, if not wicked, thoughts or those opposing His Beloved Israel. Our brother Avner Boskey has an excellent word on this current situation:
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” The brilliant physicist Albert Einstein is credited with speaking these words, but the proverb was actually penned by civil rights campaigner Rita Mae Brown in 1983.
This maxim applies to the nations of the world, as they attempt to establish a quicksilver pseudo-peace in the Middle East. It also applies to strong political forces in Israel’s opposition who are attempting to re-establish a terror-controlled Gaza, ruled by a jihadi bouillabaisse comprised of both Hamas and the PLO. The metallic chaff of mainstream media news serves as a cheerleader for this march of death, jamming clear thinking on this development for most people. These broadcasters valiantly press on, presenting their end-game scenarios which include:
- the retreat of the IDF from Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem
- the quashing of Jewish return to and settlement in portions of the Promised Land promised by YHVH to the sons and daughters of Jacob
- the ensconcing of a jihadi-run Palestinian terror-state in all three areas
International news headlines hammer home these points day and night. Incessant reportage homes in with laser-like intensity on the politically correct narrative: presenting Hamas as pursuers of peace who truly desire ceasefire and return of the Israeli hostages (those 35 or so who are still alive, or the 100 or so Israeli corpses in Hamas tunnels and caves). TV and news outlets consistently portray Israel as an evil and stubborn people led by wicked and deceptive rulers, who are perversely holding out for unrealistic and counter-productive demands.
The openly declared jihadi strategies of Hamas and the PLO – that they will never recognize the Jewish state or allow it to survive – are uncomfortable deal-breakers, revealing the total bankruptcy of Western political ‘peace plans.’ But these deadly declarations of the terror masters are deftly swept under the carpet, blithely dismissed by diplomats like Vedant Patel, the US State Department Principal Deputy Spokesman, who stated on August 13, 2024:
- “We think this is a vital time as we are working to get this ceasefire deal across the finish line . . . [O]ur stated goal is for the region, which is a two-state solution, a Palestinian state and an Israeli state that’s side-by-side, living in . . . dignity and harmony . . . Over the course of this whole process, over the course of this whole conflict, it has been clear to everyone that [Hamas arch-terrorist leader] Mr. Sinwar continues to be the decision maker. And when it comes to the future of the Palestinian people, when it comes to the ability to alleviate some of the suffering and to alleviate some of the dire situations that we’re seeing in the Gaza Strip, ultimately that is also up to Mr. Sinwar.”
The enemy of my enemy is also my enemy
An oft-quoted proverb ascribed to Middle Eastern origins states that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” This saying is also known in Latin as “Amicus meus, inimicus inimici mei” (‘my friend – the enemy of my enemy’). The closest Arabic equivalent is found in Nahj al-balāgha (‘the path of eloquence’), an eleventh-century collection of more than two-hundred sermons, nearly eighty letters, and almost five-hundred sayings attributed to Ali ibn Abi Talib (d. 661 AD). Ali was the fourth Rashidun caliph (who ruled between 656 and 661 AD). He was also the first Shia imam, and the cousin and son-in-law of Muhammad. His collection has served as an ideological basis for Islamic governance, especially for Shi’ite Muslims. Here is the pertinent quote from that book:
-
“Imam Ali ʿalayhi s-salām (peace be upon him) said: ‘Your friends are of three types and your enemies are also of three types. Friends are: your friend; your friend’s friend; the enemy of your enemy. And your enemies are: your enemy; your friend’s enemy; a friend of your enemy’” (Nahj al-balāgha, Hikmat 295)
This proverb helps us to understand what is going on in the purported ‘peace discussions’ in Doha, Qatar. The three catalyzers of this ‘Doha Summit’ are POTUS Biden, the Emir of Qatar Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani and the President of Egypt Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. Qatar is Egypt’s mortal enemy, supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas. The Muslim Brotherhood(Jamāʿat al-Ikhwān al-Muslimīn) carried out the assassination of former Egyptian President Anwar es-Sadat on October 6, 1981. They forced the resignation of Sadat’s successor Hosni Mubarak on February 11, 2011, replacing him with Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Morsi.
Morsi (the Muslim Brotherhood President) received strong support from Qatar, a long-time financier of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. Qatar declared that it would provide Egypt with US$2 billion, while private Qatari investors from Qatar pledged US$10 billion to strengthen Egyptian infrastructure. The Brotherhood uses the Arabic honorific ‘sheikh’ to refer to Osama bin Laden, and has never condemned the 9/11 jihadi terror attacks. But they have condemned the killing of Bin Laden, stating: “The whole world, and especially the Muslims, have lived with a fierce media campaign to brand Islam as terrorism and describe the Muslims as violent by blaming the September 11th incident on al-Qaeda.”
- Can Qatar (the main financier of Hamas) be considered an honest broker for peace at the Doha Summit?
-
Can Egypt honestly cooperate with Qatar while acting as an honest mediator for Hamas? The IDF announced yesterday that 50 Hamas terror tunnels which were used to smuggle weapons into Gaza from Egypt along the Philadelphia Route, have been discovered and destroyed over the past week. Egypt is aware of these tunnels and has allowed them to operate, though it hypocritically denies any such knowledge. In either case, Egypt is not acting as a country bound by a peace treaty with Israel; it is aiding and abetting our mortal enemies.
-
Can the US be considered an honest broker when its Middle East strategy sees Qatar as a linchpin, and US CENTCOM’s main al-Udeid airbase is smack-dab in the middle of Qatar?
White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby stated in the past few days that “Qatar and Egypt are, in turn, mediating with Hamas.” The Hamas terror group has refused to formally attend the summit, but says it will be negotiating through Qatari and Egyptian mediators. Deep-rooted duplicity and hypocrisy are reflected by Egypt, Qatar and the USA here, as they push Israel to step away from crushing jihadi terrorist Hamas and move toward dividing the Land of Israel:
U.S. National Security Spokesperson John Kirby said: “This is vital work. Remaining obstacles can be overcome, and we must bring this process to a close. We need to see the hostages released, relief for Palestinian civilians in Gaza, security for Israel and lower tensions in the region, and we need to see those things as soon as possible.”
Kirby stated that CIA director Bill Burns and White House Mideast czar Brett McGurk are currently meeting with representatives from Israel, Qatar and Egypt. In a joint statement from the triumvirate of POTUS Biden, Qatari Emir al-Thani and Egyptian President al-Sisi, it was stated: “It is time, immediately, to put an end to the long-standing suffering of the people of the Gaza Strip . . . It is time to finalize a ceasefire agreement.”
- The persistent and unchanging long-term goals of all three countries include the shrinking of the borders of the state of Israel; the withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem; the establishment of a jihadi terror state overseen by a combined Hamas-PLO-Palestinian Authority junta.
The Israeli delegation
Israel has given in to American pressure, sending a delegation comprising Mossad chief David Barnea and Shin Bet (Israeli FBI) head Ronen Bar. Accompanying them are IDF Maj. Gen. (res.) Nitzan Alon and senior Netanyahu adviser Ophir Falk. Iran and Hamas are manipulating the entire process: Iran hints that it may delay its seven-pronged attack on Israel for a few days if a ‘Doha deal’ can be achieved. The US State Department indicates that such a deal can be obtained if Israel pulls out of Gaza and allows Palestinian terror groups to take over. Hamas refuses to officially attend the Doha Summit, acting as ‘the strong horse’ in this Middle Eastern race, and using its recalcitrance as a bargaining chip.
Hamas’s clearly stated short-term conditions and long-term goals include: the total destruction of the state of Israel and the annihilation of the Jewish people (as per its 1987-88 Charter); the full withdrawal of the IDF from Gaza and a complete and unconditional Israeli ceasefire; the total release of all Hamas terrorists jailed by Israel; the total and unfettered return of Hamas to all areas in Gaza now held by the IDF; free passage for weapons into Gaza from Egypt and from the Mediterranean Sea; the return of only 33 of all the Israeli hostages (Hamas prefers to return mostly corpses, but perhaps some living hostages as well).
How should we then pray?
- Pray for divine revelation and strategies to be given to Israel’s leadership and to their delegation to discern and frustrate the strategies of the enemy
- Pray for the physical rescue of the approximately 33 living Israeli hostages (including babies) kidnapped by Hamas, Islamic Jihad and PFLP/PLO. At this moment some of these hostages are being tortured, raped and starved (this based on testimonies of recently released hostages). Sadly, over 100 of all Israeli hostages are dead; Hamas is holding on to their corpses as cold storage bargaining chips
- Pray for Hamas’ cruel terror dictatorship in Gaza to be decisively shattered and for all chains broken off the Palestinians living there, and for Iran’s role in jihadi deception, dissimulation and anti-Semitism to be exposed and opposed by world leaders
- Pray for the raising up of Ezekiel’s prophetic Jewish army throughout the earth
Your prayers and support hold up our arms and are the very practical enablement of God to us in the work He has called us to do.
In Messiah Yeshua,
Avner Boskey
