In a stunning development from the Obama Administration, Hillary Clinton went before the Senate Appropriations Committee this week to give testimony for sending $100 million dollars of military aid to Lebanon. This is the same Lebanon that was taken over by Hezbollah earlier this year.http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.8686/pub_detail.asp
Hezbollah is currently being supported by Gaddafi madman-want-to-be President Mahmoud Abadinejad of Iran. This is the same Hezbollah that lanched a military campaign from Lebanon in 2006 with the intention of killing as many Israelis as possible. This is the same Hezbollah that blew up our Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983 killing 241 United States Marines.

In a mind numbing admission, Clinton then said that this aid to Lebanon would be a great idea even though “it might fall into the wrong hands”. Really?
There apparently is no consideration that the arms shipment our administration is willing to send to Lebanon will highly likely be used by Hezbollah against Israel. This development will not be well received by the Israeli people and government.
This will not do much to improve our Administration’s effort to coax Israel into giving up East Jerusalem if there was any hope at all. Hamas already has acquired control of the West Bank and Gaza and routinely fire rockets from Gaza into Israel on a daily basis. With Hezbollah armed with an additional $100 million dollars in military hardware, you can bet Hezbollah is encouraged to step up their aggression against Israel.
Our administration has failed to connect the dots regarding the Middle East and recognize that this is a religious conflict and our government’s attempts to use secular logic will not work. Conventional humanistic thought cannot work. Our using “separation of church and state” works fine in America but does not translate at all over to Middle East Policy. Hoping for good thoughts and action is a reckless endeavor.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharia
It is a serious miscalculation at best to ignore the spiritual significance regarding Israel. You have people in our administration that personally reject the significance of the religion of Christians and Jews making decisions that severely compromise the beliefs of things they don’t understand. This lack of wisdom and understanding is playing right into the Islamic Fundamentalist’s playbook.
The lack of cultural understanding of the Arab world is allowing the Arabs to accomplish through negotiation what they couldn’t accomplish on the battlefield with Israel. “Hudna” is making an agreement with your enemy that you have no intention of keeping. You use the time to strengthen yourself until you are ready to attack again. What a surprise Hamas and Hezbollah are using this tactic with the help of America.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudna
The bible predicted that there would be an anti-Israel climate in the world during the end times, and there would be an Islamic coalition rising up against Israel. Whether our government is choosing to recognize it or not, going against Israel historically has NEVER been a good idea or benefit to the nation that lifted its hand against Israel.
God said, “I will bless those that bless thee, and curse those that curse thee” concerning Israel. If America isn’t careful, we will get a severe dose of Joel 3:1-2.
