Stasi in East Jerusalem?

"Went to the Temple Mount with Andreas and Ulrich (from Dresden), explained everything and then "demonstrated" that only Muslims can enter seven of the doors to the Temple Mount (Christians and Jews, like tourists, can only enter the Temple Mount compound through the Mugrabi Gate, after showing their passport). I said to the guard who prevented us from entering that I didn't appreciate that as a Christian or Jew, we can't read or pray there.

40 minutes later, after wandering around like tourists in the Old City (buying souvenirs), we went to take our picture outside of the Damascus Gate when 4 plainclothes policemen swooped down on us - me - and asked, "What are you doing here?" I said we were going to take a picture. They said, "Take a picture?" - like, yeah, right.

I said, "Who are you?" They said police. I said, "How do I know that?" The main man pulled out his identity. I heard him saying in Hebrew I was with the organization something. One said, "You're with Yehuda Etzion." I said, "No, I'm with Gershon Salmon. There's a difference." One said, cynically, "There's a difference?" I said, "You know there's a big difference. Gershon has always been law-abiding. The Temple Mount Faithful has never broken the law."

They then took my aerogrammes and looked at them, then asked and felt what the Germans had in their small bags and then took off, saying, "I know you. I've seen you before." I replied, "And you'll see me many more times - on the Temple Mount."

Then the two Germans (we were staying in the same youth hostel) wondered, "WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?" They said it was like Stasi in East Germany. I said it could've been worse. (They flew home later that day).

"What a strong Judah name!" - Barbara Flurry

Wayne Turgeon [Gerald Flurry's son-in-law] handed Flurry a print out of Beyond Babylon years ago and he returned it to him saying, "He's always sending us stuff." Mr. Flurry even responded to me several times on various issues including his confusion of Mount Carmel with Mount Hermon which I brought to his attention (having been blessed to live next to both of them), and my disagreement with him when he said the pope was the only religious leader to sit on a throne and I mentioned the Queen of England is also head of the Anglican Church (although agreeing with the point he was making against the Roman Catholic Cult)... Later I sent an autographed copy of a self-published BB (Beyond Babylon) [before Publish America published it] to Flurry's home for him and his wife who said to me (during the Feast of Tabernacles in Louisville) about my name, "What a strong Judah name!"

Beyond Babylon review by Wayne Turgeon

Philadelphia Church of God minister's review of Beyond Babylon

Review of Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall by a Philadelphia Church of God minister:

"Oh, how I admire those with both the ability to write as well as the courage to put down their ideas on paper! I felt that you have a very gripping style of writing that uses twists and slants of words or phrases to make your point. I looked up every scripture you referenced and it became clear that you have really spent a lot of time in your Bible. Being Jewish, I think, gives you an added perspective that I could never have... "

Jordan is part of Greater Israel

'What’s the Alternative?' MK Orlev: Jordan is Palestine
by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) Asked to present his alternative to the “two-state” Israel-Palestine option, MK Zevulun Orlev (Jewish Home) says, “The Arabs of the Palestinian Authority already have a state – Jordan.”

Speaking with Arutz-7 on Tuesday, Orlev – the Chairman of the Knesset Education Committee – said, “The basis for every plan is our right to the Land of Israel, halakhically, historically, etc. In the present situation, however, we must see how we make the most of the situation - and not go for ‘all or nothing.’ There is no question that we cannot expel all of the Arabs who currently live in Judea and Samaria, and so the question is how do we deal with the given situation.”

************
Jordan is the Arab-occupied East Bank of the Jordan River, part of the Promised Land of Israel that awaits liberation and annexation. Why should Israelis be willing to sell any part of their biblical inheritance down the river?

Doesn't MK Zevulun Orlev have enough common sense to know that the same hostile "Palestinian" spirit that pollutes dismembered parts of the Promised Land of Israel, Judea and Samaria, would possess the Arab-occupied Jordan? Where is his vision? Where is his faith?

It's not only possible, it's absolutely necessary for Israel to enforce peace through strength and expel their sworn enemies, as Meir Kahane reminded the nation the Law of Moses instructs: They must go. This is the alternative to the lying visions of peace, the alternative to all the failed "peace" plans that enable the bloody war of attrition to continue.
