| YASSER ARAFAT BEWARE! by Charlie Grier “For thus saith the Lord of hosts . . . unto the nations that spoiled you (Israel): for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of His eye” (Zechariah 2:8). | ||
It has been an extreme puzzle to me ever since September 11 that it is okay for the U.S.A. to retaliate against suicide bombings – but not for Israel. Following is a partial list of early suicide bombing in Israel, this year.
I am writing this article on July 7, 2002. These acts of terrorism continue daily. Following are several excerpts from an article taken from U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT 15 April 2002, P.84&83. Our only regret is that space will not permit the entire article.. | ||
Israel’s Righteous Fight | ||
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is no longer an argument over land. It is nothing less than a front line in the West’s battle with terrorism. The peace process that began with such hope in Oslo is a Humpty Dumpty that cannot be put together again for this simple reason: The terrorists that took over the Palestinian Authority – terrorists in Arafat’s Fatah – are now plainly indistinguishable from the fanatics in Hamas whose goal has always been the eradication of the State of Israel as a Jewish State. Indeed, in an interview with The New York Times, the Hamas leaders, who live prosperously in Gaza, gloated over the deaths of innocents from suicide bombings and expressed their open unity with Fatah. The only conclusion is that the basic operation of the PA has been turned over to those who advocate terrorism, such as Tanzim and al-Aqsa martyr movements, and that these anarchists are directed, financed, and guided by Arafat himself. The Israelis have discovered written evidence of Arafat’s direct involvement in arming the al-Aqsa terrorist group, which has been responsible for so many suicide bombings in Israel. Israel has no choice but to protect its people from the risk of suicide bombers that come in any shape or form. In 1981 the Israelis destroyed the Iraqi nuclear reactor and were condemned by many around the world. In 1990, when the war with Iraq broke out, we found out how foresighted this policy was. In the future, Israel will be recognized for destroying a new but no less dangerous reactor, the Palestinian ritual of death and terror by suicide. The whole world knows that Yasser Arafat is, was and apparently always will be, a terrorist. However, the world at large seems to recognize Arafat as a legitimate representative of the Palestinian people which shows deliberate ignorance of publicly available documentation that exposes Arafat and his cronies as the culprits of the Middle East conflict. | ||

Will Israel Become Part of Europe? | ||
Amid Palpably decaying European -Israel ties, a minor miracle occurred. A sizable group of staunch pro-Israel and mostly non-Jewish European Parliament members (MEPs) invites several of their Israeli counterparts, along with journalists and academies, to Brussels to hear something completely different: Israel should enter the European Union as a full member. As a member of the Israeli entourage I asked one of the Knesset members for his reaction. “This is great! I’m all for it,” murmured the MK, a former career diplomat. “Too bad the guys back at the Foreign Ministry issued clear instructions to ignore us. They just don’t get it.” | ||

Bible Prophecy | ||
Presently roughly 42% of Israel’s international trade is with Europe. According to Bible Prophecy, Israel will eventually sign a seven-year agreement with Antichrist, who will then be the world renowned head of both Europe and The United Nations. She may not join the European Nations at the present time, but when she does, that will be a pronounced fulfillment of Bible Prophecy. | ||
What about Arafat? | ||
All I can say is that Yasser Arafat is asking for trouble! I don’t pretend to know what method God will use, but Israel is still “God’s Chosen People.” To harass Israel is to TOUCH THE APPLE OF GOD’S EYE! | ||
God’s Promise To Israel |
“Fear thou not: for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; Yea, I will help thee; Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.. Thou shalt seek them, and shall not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.. For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.. Fear not thou worm Jacob, and the men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the Lord, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 41:10,11,14). |
