Terence, I lost both an Uncle on D. Day in 1944 and a brother in Vietnam in 1968. I honor your own service as a military veteran, as serving in that capacity is a very brave thing to do. I have no great love for the current administration. I will disagree with you, however, that this great nation is done. It is deeply wounded and yes, in dire need of repair and restoration.I agree it has become spoiled by the many years of prosperity and power. I also disagree that Israel is at fault in Gaza. Horrors of war are horrors of war, just like Oct. 7, 2023 and the horrendous slaughter of Israeli citizens. Israel is surrounded by her enemies. I do not know what else they could do in the face of the desire of Hamas to not only conquer Israel but also to kill all Jews. What a terrible legacy for the people of Gaza, caught in the middle of this awful mess!! I cannot believe that all Gazans love Hamas?? I do not believe the IDF is turning dark, although in the fume of war, I imagine there are very bad things happening. Turning back to God and His Son is the way I have survived to age 71, after years of rebellion and sorrow. I brought my sinful behavior before God, repented with a broken heart and contrite spirit. I want deep and profound healing for this nation I love, which includes steep repentance and humility and a return to the roots of our Biblical heritage, regardless of whether one is a follower of God and His Son. The Biblical concept of "civil self government" is an excellent one. Not at all easy but a good idea. With respect, sir, I offer this comment. Wendy
Hi Wendy! Thank you soo much for the read and comment. I pray you’re right about the state of the country.
If you get some time, I penned a lengthy article on the Israel-Palestine concern. Hamas actually does not want to kill all Jews as noted by their own charters. That is a narrative the media and Israel spun up. All Gazans also don’t want to kill all Jews. There have actually been surveys conducted to understand what they believe and it runs counter to the media’s narrative. In fact most Palestinians weren’t even aware that Hamas targeted civilians and when interviewed they were appalled. Many don’t have access to the internet, tv or even electricity so the first time they saw what happened was during interviews.
There’s a lot we as well as the Palestinian people are not being told -information controlled by governments and mainstream media. But alas, this is precisely how atrocities occur. The people must be misinformed for the agenda to take root.
