Prime Minister Stephen Harper is made of the 'Righteous Stuff'

Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Monday [Nov. 8, 2010] that Canada has maintained its moral principles and refused to "pretend" it is being an honest broker on Israel -- even though it meant this country lost votes in its recent bid for a seat on the United Nations Security Council.

Channel One Report of Ami Ortiz and his parents

Dear Webkeeper,

It will take some time to down load the link, but it will be worth the wait. Be sure you have the time to spare before opening... Ron

Dear All,

Below is a link to a news report done by Israel's Channel 1 News. This news report on Ami was the highest rated show on Israeli TV during the time it was aired due to the number of viewers. As you will learn from the video, the Israeli police attempted to stop the airing of this report by taking Channel 1 to court twice. When their first attempt failed, they brought it before a higher court. Thankfully, the second attempt failed as well. The Lord used the fact that they were trying to cover up the case to bring greater publicity and awareness. Advertisements were made to make the public aware of how much the police are trying to block any information to be revealed about the case. It made people more interested.

The airing of the report also caused public officials as well as other media outlets to take interest in what's happening. They are starting to wonder what is being hidden and why. This is pressuring the police to finally start working on the case after they've sat on the evidence without doing anything.

Also, you will see in one part of the report that Leah was asked if she's a missionary. Her reply was no. The word missionary in this land has a very negative connotation; even used as an insult. It represents a dishonest person who uses bribery or force as means of getting the Jewish people to convert. It does not represent someone who proclaims the love of Yeshua for His people.

As you watch this report, please not only respond as it asks you at the end, but we ask that you pray. Here are some prayer points:

Pray that the Lord would continue to speak to Ami and give him love, peace, hope, and joy.
Pray that the Lord would continue to perform miracles on his physical body. He still faces multiple operations to reattach severed nerves in his arms and a long road of physical therapy. Pray for miraculous healing.

Pray that the Lord would continue to give us more grace and strength for each day.
Pray that the Lord will give us wisdom and discernment as we deal with the police, officials, lawyers, and the media.
Pray that the Lord will continue to give us courage and boldness to proclaim His name.

Pray that the Lord will use this to work in the hearts of our children and not be a point of discouragement.

Pray that the Lord will continue to unite the believers all over the land and the world through this matter.
Pray that the Lord will cast out all fear through His love and that they will be bold and courageous in declaring their faith.

Pray that the media will not twist any facts, but present the truth so that the Lord will be glorified.

We thank you for all your prayers, support, and encouragements in this season.

Make a Difference this Passover

Dear Webkeeper,

I encourage you to read the following message and forward it on to your friends and family.

Leo Adler
Director of National Affairs
Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies

Dear Friends,

For the Jewish people, there is no more important festival than Passover, the festival of freedom. No people have paid a greater price in trying to achieve it.

As Jews around the world prepare to usher in Passover, former President Jimmy Carter will reportedly meet on Friday with exiled Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal, one of the world's most notorious terrorists and anti-Semites. This follows Mr. Carter's meeting yesterday with another senior Hamas leader, Nasser Shaer, thereby granting credibility to Hamas and other terrorist groups.

President Carter's reasoning for visiting the Middle East is the criticism that he has with the US's role there. He has stated that the US is not an 'honest peace broker' because it favors Israel. But, precisely for that reason, Mr. Carter should be the last person to try and broker Mideast peace. For the last 20 years he has shown himself to be totally one-sided.

And the struggle for freedom for Jews continues.

At the United Nations, only Israel's right to exist is regularly questioned. Nobody ever challenges and wants to roll the clock back on Syria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Egypt, and Jordan, who were created by the stroke of a pen. The microscope is exclusively reserved only for Israel whose ancestors lived in that land since the time of Abraham.

At the UN Human Rights council, Richard Falk, who recently likened Israel's actions to those of the Nazis, was just appointed special rapporteur on the Palestinian territories. No wonder that since its inception, the Council has passed twenty resolutions, nineteen of which have been anti-Israel.

And, leading the committee planning the 2009 UN anti-racism conference (Durban II) is Libya in the role of Chairman, along with committee members from Iran, Cuba, and Pakistan.

These are dangerous times and we must not be complacent. Your support of the Simon Wiesenthal Center is crucial to us - it enables us to speak out against this bias, duplicity, and double-standard.

Your support enables us to present our views as we did last month to Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in New York and earlier this week in Geneva to UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour, head of the UN Human Rights Council.

But to be effective, we cannot do it alone, we need your financial support. Please take a moment to respond generously to the Simon Wiesenthal Center Wishing you and your family a wonderful Passover.

Subject: Amiel Update - April 13 edited*

Dear Webkeeper,

Word From Yerushalaim - Simantov Allalouf

Following is an edited* update on Amiel's condition. Amiel is the fifteen year old boy that was severely injured by opening a bomb packaged like a Purim present about a month ago.

From: Hannah anglodtp@netvision.net.il

Greetings to the Lord's people everywhere!

Ami has been making steady progress, which is actually an understatement. Just one week after the long night when his very survival was in doubt, he was moved out of ICU. In spite of the shrapnel in his eye, which required a delicate operation, he can now see out of both eyes just fine. Right around the time they stopped worrying about his collapsed lung (I lost track of the progress on that), he started sitting up in a chair, out of bed, and he is now being encouraged to walk. Not only are the skin grafts working well, but one leg is unexpectedly healing without grafts.

I kind of feel for the medical team, who has been caught flat-footed by Ami's fast, unpredictable recovery... they're not used to having to use the word "ness" (Heb. for miracle) so many times with regard to one patient - especially one who they knew was at death's door and in danger of losing all his limbs only 3-1/2 weeks ago.

Your prayers, letters, gifts, and especially the postcards addressed to Ami, have been giving him and his family encouragement beyond what you would imagine. And the meals have continued to come in faithfully, 3-1/2 weeks without a break, often providing more than they could eat. May the Lord bless the local cooks - from the responses of the family, it's clear that you are feeding them with both food and love. New challenges that Ami's progress is bringing.

He is experiencing a lot of pain from muscles that have 'frozen up' from disuse, from healing scabs that are pulling on sensitive skin, and from half-healed wounds (pray against infection, which is currently a danger in some of the deeper injuries). He needs several operations to recover the use of his hands (the blood vessels and nerves are mangled). The medical staff is trying to reduce the sedatives, which sometimes results in more sensitivity to pain and sleepless nights. The physical therapy is as painful as it is necessary.

Fighting to get back to something called "normal" for his new body may take up to a year. An intimidating thought, as you can imagine. Can you also imagine the hard questions that must inevitably come to a 15-year-old, whose normal everyday life has suddenly spun out of control? Pray that Ami will get his answers straight from the Lord. He is the only One who can really understand the heart-cry of a 15-year-old Israeli believer whose life has irreversibly changed without him having any say in the matter.

In short, we can't give Ami or his family any neat answers. What we can say is simply, "We love you, we are praying for you, we are standing with you." That's plenty, and it means plenty.

There are some brothers who have become conspicuous by their unwillingness to say that. Mega church leader John Hagee, who just brought hundreds of Christians on a "stand with Israel" tour, came to Ariel on April 3 to "bring comfort to the Israeli people", and yet completely ignored this Israeli family who was in need of comfort... only four blocks from their well-publicized performance. One Ariel believer who attended this "night to honor those who honor Israel" asked a member of Hagee's delegation if they knew about the Ortizes and their trauma. Apparently the tour leaders did know, but they left town without so much as sending a note of encouragement. May the Lord forgive them - we got more support from the nonbelieving mayor of Ariel than from these prominent brothers and sisters. I could speculate on why that happened, but only Hagee's entourage can give an authoritative answer. Anyone who would like to ask them can write to Pastor Hagee's organization, Christians United for Israel, at info@cufi.org, or the CUFI Press Relations Office (Juda Engelmayer) at CUFI@5wpr.com

May the Lord bless the organizers of the Epicentre 08 Conference, another "stand with Israel" tour group who made a very different decision. The conference leader (I think it was Joel Rosenberg) stood before a mixed audience that included Israeli dignitaries (likely the same people that Pastor Hagee was courting in his Jerusalem Summit), and backed by the other Epicentre speakers, he chose to give David the microphone, and then gathered the leaders to stand with David and pray for him. The speaker's comments conveyed the message, "We are standing with our brethren in Israel, because we are more worried about offending our Lord than offending you (our Israeli and Jewish friends)." You can view the entire segment by clicking here: David Ortiz gives an update on his son's miraculous improvements.

These Christian leaders should be commended for their integrity and courage. If you would like to do that, you can write to John Moser at the Joshua Fund (one of the Epicentre Conference's main sponsors): john@joshuafund.net.

Vatican Urged to Reject Latin Patriach's "INSIDIOUS CAMPAIGN TO DE-JUDAIZE ISRAEL"

Vatican's chief cleric in Jerusalem says by calling itself a Jewish State, Israel discriminates against non-Jews

Forwarded Email - excerpt from Simon Wiesenthal Center Press Center [enewsletter@wiesenthal.net]

The Simon Wiesenthal Center called on the Vatican to reject remarks made by the Patriarch of Jerusalem, the Church's chief representative in Israel, where he called for Israel to "discard its identity as a Jewish State" saying that such a label is discriminatory to its non-Jewish citizens.

Patriarch Michel Sabbah, said in a pre-Christmas press conference, "If there's a state of one religion, other religions are naturally discriminated against....This land cannot be exclusive to anyone." Patriarch Sabbah, who has been a frequent critic of Israel since he attained this position in 1987, once said of the Israelis, "In the end we will send them away just as we did to the Crusaders."
"Patriarch Sabbah's denial of the State of Israel as a Jewish State is nothing less than a campaign to de-legitimize her and is fodder to the majority of the Arab and Muslim world that their long-held dream of a Middle East without a Jewish State is still possible," said Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder and dean of the Wiesenthal Center.
Hier said that Sabbah's latest outburst contradicts both Pope John Paul II's 1987 declaration that, 'The Jews have a right to nationhood as do all other peoples according to international law and the United Nations Declaration of 1947 that called for an Arab and Jewish State."
"Israel does not need lessons from Patriarch Sabbah on how to treat citizens of other faiths and religions," said Hier. "He would better serve the Christians in the Holy Land by going to Gaza and defending the beleaguered Christian minority there from Hamas extremists. We call on Pope Benedict to reject Sabbah's demand and all those supporting this insidious campaign to de-Judaize the State of Israel," Rabbi Hier concluded.
Additionally, just yesterday, Adalah, the Arab minority rights center called for a "democratic constitution for a supranational regime in all of historic Palestine," which will ensure that Palestinian refugees can fulfill their right of return.

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is one of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations with over 400,000 member families in the United States. It is an NGO at international agencies including the United Nations, UNESCO, the OSCE, and the Council of Europe.

The Day After Annapolis

Reuven and Mary Lou Doron

Forwarded Email - excerpt from One New Man

THE DAY AFTER ANNAPOLIS

As the world stumbles on in a drunken stupor to soon celebrate the beginning of another calendar year, the birth pains of the Kingdom of God continue to intensify all across the earth. And though it appears that the recent “Peace Summit” in Maryland concluded with a political “whimper,” its ramifications and perceived accomplishments have ratcheted up the Middle East drama another notch higher than it was a week ago.

We would like to thank everyone who earnestly prayed during this historic event, and we have no doubt that God’s will is being accomplished even as the days grow darker. As this summit has demonstrated, Israel is not only the thermometer, signifying the spiritual climate of the world; rather it is also the thermostat, the trigger in the hand of God as He guides this age toward the fullness of the harvest and the coming of His Kingdom.

Subject: Article from Arutz Sheva in Israel
To: webkeeper@bethshechinah.com

Dear Webkeeper,

I am sending this article as an example so that people can pray and perhaps look a little deeper. You might not want it on the website, but maybe the intercessors at Beth Shechinah would Pray for the Peace to come upon the nation. Yeshua, is the only answer.

For many years the Russian speakers have with sadness in their hearts shared with us that in the Northern countries they were always called derogatory names for being Jewish. The opposite has happened in Israel. They are mistreated and called gentiles by those who do not want immigrants from the North to compete in the school system job market etc.Some have been cheated when they have rented their first apartments, and/or have been cheated by employers. The stories have broken our hearts. The Russian speakers are given many benefits to encourage them to come to the land. The Israeli born do not receive the same benefits These immigrants receive a package of benefits that amounts to around thirty thousand dollars in the first two years and they do not have to pay taxes on a vehicle if they buy it within three years of their arrival. Many Israeli's( born in the land) were leaving Israel for five years.Some of them openly expressed jealousy and contempt for new immigrants. They were then allowed to return with immigrant status and they too could receive a package deal. The government has recently changed this law. There is not peace amongst most of the ethnic groups in Israel. We need to be praying for them. The article below is an example of what happens in Israel. It is no different then what happens in North America but gives us insight in some of the problems that face the Lord's chosen people.

19-Year-Old Suspected Nazi Vandal Nabbed,
Other Attacks Continue

by Hana Levi Julian

A 19-year-old Haifa man has been arrested in connection with an anti-Semitic attack on a local synagogue.

Haifa police arrested the suspect on Sunday afternoon for allegedly torching the synagogue's sukkah (holiday booth) and burning it to the ground. The suspect, whose remand has been extended for seven days, is also being held on suspicion of scrawling swastikas on holy books and at least one of the synagogue's Torah scrolls. The items were recovered not far from the site.

The Haifa police commander made a point of telling journalists that unlike members of the highly-publicized gang arrested last month, the suspect is not a new immigrant neo-Nazi, referring to him instead as a "young Israeli." The suspect was allegedly involved in other anti-Semitic incidents as well.
The Haifa police commander emphasized the 19-year-old suspect is a 'young Israeli'.

The city has recently been the venue for other incidents of Nazi vandalism. Residents of an Allenby Street apartment building in Haifa last week reported finding anti-Semitic graffiti on the walls of their stairwell. The scrawls included anti-Semitic slogans and at least one swastika.

Two neo-Nazis attacked a 70-year-old woman who was walking on the bridge connecting the Meridian Hotel and the Neveh David neighborhood in Haifa on September 17. The victim said "two gang members" beat her, one kicking her and causing her injuries, and the other snapping to a Nazi salute and shouting out "Heil Hitler." She was able to escape when a streetsweeper stepped in to help her. The Nazi youth beat him, too.

Haifa Radio reported that on the same day, not far from the scene of that attack, neo-Nazis victimized a family from Neveh Yosef. The family woke up to find their car's tires had been slit and that a huge swastika on top of a Star of David had been painted on the vehicle.

Meanwhile, neo-Nazi vandalism continues to spread to other communities across the country. On Monday, it was Holon's turn. Residents of the city discovered three swastikas spray-painted on an electricity fuse box at a local school. Ayalon District police have opened an investigation into the incident.

A day earlier, residents of Ramat Hasharon discovered two swastikas spray-painted on the wall of a garbage chute on Bereishit Street. The Sunday morning defacement has been added to the list of anti-Semitic incidents being tracked in the center of the country.

Since the beginning of the holiday-packed Hebrew month of Tishrei, which fell on the evening of September 12th, Nazi graffiti and vandalism has spiked further, with attacks on synagogues reported in Bnei Brak, Dimona and Eilat.

There has been a string of anti-Semitic, Nazi-style attacks in cities across the country since the arrest of the neo-Nazi gang in Petach Tikva a little over a month ago. All the members of the gang were teens who were either themselves born in the former Soviet Union (FSU) or born to parents who emigrated from there to Israel

Fundamentally Freund:
No way to treat our Christian friends

Michael Freund , THE JERUSALEM POST

For a country short on allies, Israel sure needs to learn how to start treating its friends a little better. Just over a week from now, during the Succot holiday, thousands of Bible-believing Christians from over 100 countries will converge on the streets of Jerusalem.

They come here not as conquerors, nor as soul-snatchers, but as devoted, God-fearing individuals who wish to stand in solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people. Just as they have been doing for nearly 30 years, they will parade through the capital, wave their national flags and express their love for Israel as they heap blessings on the Jewish people and their miraculous return to Zion.

Anywhere else in the world such a display of unbounded affection and unconditional support would be greeted with open arms and touted as a welcome demonstration of philo-Semitism in an age of increasing peril for Jews.

Anywhere, it seems, except here.

According to media reports, a committee appointed by Israel's Chief Rabbinate has recommended barring participation by Jews in the parade, fearing that the event will be used to entice Israelis to betray their faith. The recommendation is said to be in the process of being formally approved, and is set to be published shortly by the Rabbinate.

This is a highly regrettable development. It represents a gratuitous slap in the face to the organizers of the parade, the International Christian Embassyin Jerusalem, and to the thousands of pro-Israel Christians who are coming here to take part.

They are taking time off of work, leaving behind families, friends and loved ones, and coming here at their own expense to champion Israel and show the world their commitment to its well-being and security.

And how do we react? By tarring them all with the label of "missionaries" and showing little appreciation of the sincerity of their friendship and support.

PROHIBITING participation in the parade simply makes no sense. The Jerusalem Municipality even issued a statement saying there are no grounds to fear that the event will be used as a platform for missionary activity.

"Participation in the parade," the municipality said, "is planned in advance and approved by the city, whose inspectors wouldn't allow a missionary group or any other political group to attend."

But the damage has been done, as many Christians must surely be scratching their heads and wondering why anyone could possibly object to their marching through Jerusalem in support of Israel.

Now, don't get me wrong. The threat posed by missionary activity in Israel is real, and steps must be taken to curtail it. But to label all pro-Israel Christians as "missionaries" is neither fair nor accurate.

Sure, some would like to convert Jews, and they make little or no attempt to hide their agenda. But the vast majority simply wants to bless Israel because that is what they believe the Divine Will wants them to do.

IN OTHER words, a little nuance can go a long way. Instead of lumping all Christian supporters of Israel together and classifying them as "missionaries in disguise," we should make sure to distinguish between those who truly and unreservedly love us and the small minority who surreptitiously seek to bring about our spiritual demise.

Similarly, too many Israeli officials and Jewish organizations have come to view the burgeoning relationship with evangelicals as little more than just another opportunity to solicit funds, rather than to seek genuine and lasting friendship.

By focusing on dollars instead of devotion, the Jewish state runs the risk of portraying itself as just another pitiful charity case in need of assistance, rather than as the vital partner and ally of the West that it is.

And so, thanks to a combination of short-sighted thinking and occasional avarice, Israel might just be causing irreparable damage to one of its most important wellsprings of support.

The timing could not possibly be worse. After all, we are currently facing an array of powder-keg issues, such as the nuclear threat from Iran, the Hamas takeover in Gaza, and Hizbullah's arms buildup in Lebanon.

Pro-Israel Christians, many of whom proudly refer to themselves as "Christian Zionists," number in the tens of millions and wield increasing power and influence across the United States. They love Israel passionately and pray for her well-being, and they play a progressively more important role in the formulation of American policy.

Now, more than ever, Israel should be cultivating Christian support, both in the US and elsewhere. Done properly, it can blossom into a lasting friendship of historical, political and diplomatic significance.

But by raining on their parade and not treating our Christian friends with the respect and admiration they deserve, we do them, and ultimately ourselves, a terrible disservice.

- Excerpted from an email from Simon Wiesenthall Center

Dear Friends,
I encourage you to read the following message and forward it on to your friends and family.

Leo Adler
Director of National Affairs
Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies

As we usher in the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, recall the words of Simon Wiesenthal who said, "We should remember that the enemies of the Jewish people do not break for holidays."
In Geneva, Iran was celebrating her appointment by the United Nations Human Rights Council to the planning committee of the 2009 UN World Conference Against Racism. How bizarre that a nation that calls the Holocaust a "myth" and calls for the destruction of the Jewish state is internationally rewarded and contributes to the agenda of a human rights conference.

This sort of outspoken anti-Semitism is not unusual:

In Geneva two weeks ago, our Director for International Relations, Dr. Shimon Samuels, was the only Jewish NGO spokesperson to stand up publicly and condemn the UN action.
Last week, Dr. Samuels was in Brussels at a UN conference on Middle East peace where Israel was compared to apartheid South Africa; where many speakers called for a boycott and participants strategized how to isolate Israel from the international community; and where British Parliament Member, Clare Short stated that Israel, "undermines the international community's reaction to global warming."
Father Tadeusz Rydzyk, the head of the Polish Catholic media group Radio Maryja (with listeners numbering in the millions) remarked, "grafting $65 billion from Poland [for reparations]...They [the Jews] will come to you and say, 'Give me your coat! Take off your trousers! Give me your shoes!"

But, with your help the Simon Wiesenthal Center took immediate action and:

Demanded that the Vatican discipline and dismiss Rydzyk, because there can be no place in the Church for a "Goebbels in a collar". As a result of this, 25,000 online activists protested to the President of the Polish Bishops' Conference.
Last week, Pope John Paul's private secretary for 40 years, Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, accused Father Rydzyk of splitting the church and damaging the legacy of the Polish-born Pope. Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz stated, "We cannot ignore what is happening and await what will come next...we are on the edge of a dangerous crisis -- someone else is trying to set the direction of the faith."
When the U.S. State Department minimized Germany's role in the murder of six million Jews during the Holocaust on its website, we immediately wrote to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Within two hours, Secretary Rice's office responded and asked for our help in correcting the website.

This Rosh Hashanah when you dispense charity, Give to the Simon Wisenthal Center. Together, 365 days a year, we defend the dignity and the rights of the Jewish people.

Wishing you and your families, L'Shana Tova, a healthy and happy New Year,

Rabbi Marvin Hier
