Israeli leadership will formally annex the West Bank in the very near future

Israel, fortified by bombs and funding from the Biden administration, is escalating the forced evacuation of hundreds of thousands from the north of Gaza to the south, amid fierce bombing and the deprivation of food and water for those who stay behind. This is continuing amid marches and other demonstrations sponsored by the religious right in Israel whose leadership also is calling for north Gaza to be turned over to Israeli settlers. What was a worrisome rumor in Gaza more and more seems like a reality.

Control over all of Gaza and the West Bank is the core demand of the religious right in Israel that now dominates the government. I was told this week by a well-informed Washington official that the Israeli leadership will formally annex the West Bank in the very near future—perhaps in two weeks—in the hope that the decisive step will end, once and for all, any talk of a two-state solution and will convince some in the skeptical Arab world to reconsider financing the planned reconstruction of Gaza. Arab communities in the West Bank have been under increasingly violent pressure from Israeli police and armed settler attacks have become a sad staple of life.

On this day in 164 BC, during the Maccabean Revolt, the forces of Judas Maccabeus recaptured Jerusalem and rededicated the Second Temple. This event is now commemorated as the Jewish festival Hanukkah, also celebrated by many Messianics.

Guess what? I suspect THEY thought “Not so friend. The king of the Jews will establish his eternal kingdom in that place. Thats how it will end.”

Was true even back then.

God’s timeline isn’t humans timeline.

Israel might yet be destroyed again to be rebuilt again.

Israel is “Just Defending themselves”.

Whatever. Lift the protection of their big brother Uncle Sam and again they will lose their “blessed” country to another Babylon.

Genocide seems only to happen to the “Chosen People”. The rest are collateral damage to the expansion of Israel.
