More than 90 rockets on Israel in 48 hours

Headline News

Wednesday, January 16, 2008 by Staff Writer

Fifty rockets were fired from northern Gaza at the southern Israel towns of Sderot and Ashkelon and smaller surrounding communities on Wednesday, wounding two people and sending numerous others into shock.

The barrage brought the number of rockets and mortar shells fired by Gaza-based Palestinian terrorists over the past two days to more than 90.

Israeli forces continued to respond with targeted strikes against terrorist cells using the Gaza populace as cover. In one strike, an Israeli missile narrowly missed a pickup carrying a known Hamas rocket maker and hit an adjacent vehicle, killing three civilians.

Israel has had a difficult time convincing the international community to demand that Palestinian forces dedicated to fighting Israel stop operating out of densely populated civilian areas.

Nevertheless, Israel did not ignore the diplomatic track amid the escalating fighting in and around Gaza. On Tuesday, Israel sent a letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the UN Security Council insisting that the latest wave of violence emanating from Gaza be condemned and that Israel's right to defend itself against such aggression be recognized.

BEHOLD, I WILL OPEN YOUR GRAVES, AND CAUSE YOU

Ezekiel 37:10-12

In the words of RaDaK: "If this vision is a metaphor, the lands of the nations where Israel is in exile are the graves.

If it is to be taken literally, the meaning is plain.

There is a division of opinion
among our sages about
the dead outside of Israel .

Some held that they will arise from their graves in the Diaspora itself,

while others said that they will
come up to the Land of Israel by rolling (GILGUL) through underground passages (Kesuvos 111a).

The present verse supports the view that they will come back to life in the Diaspora… for it says ''I will open up your graves and bring you up from your graves'' and afterwards ''I will bring you to the Land of Israel. "

So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath...

Then He said unto me: Son of man,

behold, they say: Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost,

we are clean cut off...

Commenting on this vision, RaDaK writes that...

"the Holy One blessed be He showed Ezekiel this valley as a metaphor showing that the Children of Israel would leave their exile,

in which they were living in a state comparable to that of ''dry bones''.

Alternatively, He showed him this to show him that in time to come -

- He will resurrect the dead of Israel
at the time of the redemption -

so that they too should witness the redemption."

Moshiach: Rebekah - Norway

1/30/2008 9:24 PM

THE DRY BONES IN THE VALLEY COME ALIVE.

Ezekiel 37

The hand of the LORD was upon me, and the LORD
carried me out in a spirit,

and set me down in the midst of
the valley, and it was full of bones.

Ezekiel 37:1 is in a prophetic vision, not physically (Radak).

There are two points of view
in the Talmud,

as to wether this prophesy is a parable or wether this prophesy:

"the bones in the valley" actually came to life (Sanhedrin 92b).

In either case, it is understood by the commentors as a source
of hope for Israel in its exile,

and as a reinforcement of the principle that the dead will
come to life again in Messianic times.

Isaiah 26:19

*The dead among Your (God’s) righteous people
(the Jews, Noachides),

and the corpses of my (the prophetess'') people, Israel.

This is an allusion to the resurrection
of the dead (Ibn Ezra).

Just as Your dew revives plants,
so you will send a “dew”
that will revive the dead (Radak).

These are the higher spiritual powers or "lights" of the Holy One
blessed be He that will shine down and revive the dead (AZAMRA).

AND THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD DEPARTED FROM SAUL, AND AN EVIL

SPIRIT FROM THE LORD FRIGHTENED HIM.

AND SAUL''S SERVANTS SAID TO HIM, "BEHOLD NOW,

AN EVIL SPIRIT OF GOD IS FRIGHTENING YOU.

Let our lord say (your servants
are before you), ''Let them
seek a man who knows how to play on the harp'',

and it will be, that when the evil spirit of God is upon you,

he will play with his hand, and
it will be good for you."

And it would be, that when the spirit of God was upon Saul,

that David would take the harp,
and would play with his hand,

and Saul would be relieved, and it would be good for him,

THE SPIRIT OF EVIL -

- WOULD DEPART FROM HIM.

Disbanding of the UN

The UN is clearly ineffective concerning logical, non biased decision making. this is why we appointed them, and this is why we should fire them period. This is the issue that the politicians should be confronted with during their campaigning.

I speak to you in the Name of Yeshua, Messiah and King, by the power of the Holy Spirit, and by the blood of the Lamb of God. May the Lord rebuke you and silence. May you be mute and not able to utter any vile words against the chosen ones of Adonai. May your speech be gone until you can say Blessed is the Lord God almighty and blessed are His children Israel.

Let me get this straight...This "Allah" that you call your god whom you supposedly worship - he''s in favor of his followers having hate, anger, fear and filth come forth from them...if that''s what you call a god, I personally would have nothing to do with him or her! Keep me as far away from that god as the east is from the west...ew! Oh, by the way Palestine''s Husband...you''re forgiven.

Ram (Ismael''s seed) the goat (Jacob''s seed)

A time will come in the near future when the ram will be powerless to stand against the goat. The goat trampled on him and knocked him to the ground and none could rescue the ram from his power.
The goat (Jacob) became very great, but at the height of his power his large horn was broken off, and in it''s place 4 prominent horns grew up towards the four winds of heaven. Out of them a 4king will come and trample on the Temple mount. It''s coming, the tribulation is here and the end of this age is at hand. Our Lord is comng. Hallelujah, ou King is coming to reign and remove the turban and the crown of the Prince of the physical jews will be removed and given to the rightful owner, Jesus the Christ.
Then the veil will be lifted and your eyes O Israel will see the truth. Amen Hallelujah our King will reign!

Latest Attacks Against Israel...

I was watching Fox News this morning and saw the report of the intense attacks against Israelis - even striking near the school where children were in harm''s way...the reporter said that Olmert would take severe measures against the attackers...when??? Next week maybe? And to what extent? A tit for a tat will not stop the terrorism...something needs to be done that takes out the launching sites. And the return fire must continue until we see white flags flying in surrender, from Gaza. Also, my guess is that Israel is tracking WHERE the Gazan missiles originally came from - what nation manufactured them...hope they deal with them as well.

The world is being led by the ruler of Darkness. Many souls belongs to outer darkness. May his eyes be opened to truth. Let the light come into your soul that you may find true happiness that comes from the God of the Universe.
Come into a place that is waiting to hold you and comfort you in ways you have not known. Completeness that fills the longing and emptyness inside one''s soul.
He''s coming to dwell here on earth. Satan''s throne will be removed and every knee will bow and profess that
HE is KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS. You will be there. Come into HIS LOVE, call out to him, speak to the God who d you. Amen

Gaza

Israel needs to let it be known that continued attacks will lead to war and then if the elected government in Gaza does not stop the aggression then Israel should go to all out war with Gaza and not hold back until Gaza surrenders or no longer exists.
The way things are going it will not stop unless Israel puts a stop to this.

Palestine''s Husband

Why is he still here? I thought he had been banned for good and then I come upon his filth again? Get him out of here.
As to Otto''s request, I would not support some sort of membership requirement, but I do think strict monitoring for language and not for content of the comments is needed.
Also, all below are judging an entire people based on one person, who, although he refers to himself as Palestinian, might be anything under the sun for all we know. He could be a white teenager in the US. He could be a fifty-year-old from Argentina. He could be a woman from Lithuania. All we know about him (or her) is what he (or she) chooses to reveal.
And one person does not define the rest of their ethnicity. For instance, I''m a WASP (white Anglo-Saxon Protestant) but I am hardly representative of this group.

Otto

Your comment went up while I was composing mine. I would have addressed your concerns in it had I known. His pathetic attempts at provocation are laughable. He is one of the dead-enders who know their house of cards is going to come crashing down because their whole reality is built on lies and delusions. His only worth to this site is in illustrating how sick and defective he and his kind are, and there is great value in that. He spews the exact same garbage that the smarmy apologists exclaim has no place in their "religion of (body)pieces", their religion that is SO misunderstood, their religion that tells them to kill you if you deny that it is peaceful or humiliate them with rational criticism, or deny them preferential status.
The special status they demand is, to me, proof that even they know they cannot be held to the same standards as the civilized world.
He is ugly, no argument there, but if he continues, he exposes the truth.

Hey PH,

I bet you aren''t anyones husband. You aren''t man enough to fill that role. My guess is you are an unemployed loser still living in your mama''s basement. But I want to make one thing clear regardless of your personal details, and that is to keep right on doing what you''re doing. You are very helpful to the people who meet and comment here. There are people who would never believe how foul, barbaric, and without honor Israels enemies are without you coming along every now and then and sharing such illuminating examples with us. You are "exhibit A" in the case for the palis formerly known as Jordanians being undeserving, incapable, and not advanced/civilized enough to be given a "state".
But again, please continue to crawl out of the sewer occasionally and spew some of that highest quality pali philosophy. We love to laugh at your pathetic self.

Please Ban or Restrict All Commenting

I have been a long time reader of Israel Today online news and I have been subjected to the most obscene commenting done mostly by Maniacal Muslims who hate the Israeli nation and others who hate the Jewish people. This is absolutely unacceptable.

I request that you either ban all commenting from your website or restrict publishing visitor comments until after they have been screened for worldwide consumption.

There was a day when you could trust people to debate issues fairly and respectably, however, in the 21st century, you just can''t expect that from people anymore.

I believe that most of your loyal readers and subscribers who rely on Israel Today for professional, honest and fair reporting do not want to be subjected to the kind of obscenity we have been subjected to below. This happens much too often.

Respectfully Yours,

O profane and wicked prince of Israel

Ezekiel 21:25-27 O profane and wicked prince of Israel, whose day has come, whose time of punishment has reached its climax, this is what the Sovereign Lords says: Take off your turban, remove the crown.
It will not be as it was: the lowly will be exalted and the exalted will be brought low. A ruin! A ruin! I will make Israel a ruin! It will not be restored until he (Christ) comes to whom it rightfully belongs: to him will I give it.
Ezekiel 22:4 You have become guilty because of the blood you have shed and have become defiled by the idols you have made. You have brought your days to a close, and the end of your years has come.
The Lord has spoken.

I dont know whats more of a threat-4

As long as the US has oil at a good or fair price, we are all for and beleive Israel has the right to exist as a sovreign nation and we support them.When oil prices go up, then all the sudden Israel needs to make peace with the terrorist,and divide their land and break bread with them.And in the meantime,Gods people get rocketed and shelled by Hamas and Hezbollah....But as long as the US and the UN is happy thats all that matters...right?

Diplomacy, With The UN Is A Waste Of Time

Israel needs to quit worrying about what the UN, and the international community thinks about them. Because they are never, going to side with Israel. And Israel, is just got to do, what it''s got to do, to protect their people. And if, civilians get hurt, or killed, in the process, it''s not their fault. It''s the fault, of the Palestinian terrorists, for operating in civilian areas. And the UN, and the international community, for not doing their jobs of condemning the aggression, and of the operating out of, densely populated civilian areas, by the Palestinian terrorists.
