Being more graphic, he also asked, ”What would you do if cities in your country were leveled by missiles or enemy bombs?” The threat of disaster grows steadily every year. Weapons are now developing to devastating proportions, and the ability to launch an attack becomes more feasible by the moment. This year, the question that should be asked is, “What would you do if 70% of the USA was shutdown in a single second?” Or ”What would be the consequence if Israel was wiped off the map in a single moment of time?” Both scenarios are now possible. Either result could be achieved by terrorist or rogue states using an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) technique.

I’ve done more listening than I have talking. The listening has been very valuable to me.”

It is not a new dilemma. The prophets Ezekiel and Jeremiah saw something similar in their time, accusing the leaders of their day—the prophets and priests—saying: “They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, saying ‘Peace, peace!’ When there is no peace” (Jer. 6:14, NKJV). The world’s peace plans only heal people “slightly.”

Wanting a fragment to remind him to pray for Jerusalem, he had asked if he could purchase one and was told he couldn’t. However, his Israeli tour guide “gave” it to him as a “gift.” Not knowing any better, he kept it until his conscience got the better of him, when he then shipped it back to Israel along with a note of apology and plea for forgiveness. Since it was returned intact, the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) did not press charges.

Instead of dropping down clunky metallic submarines to the seafloor, which offer little in the way of precision, scientists are working on a device that can gingerly walk over delicate objects, making sure not to damage coral reefs and pristine marine environments.

The attacks against us began in the 1920s, escalated in 1948, continued with the fedayeen [Arab “freedom fighters”] attacks in the 1950s, and climaxed in 1967, on the eve of the Six Day War, in an attempt to tighten a noose around the neck of the State of Israel. All this occurred during the 50 years before a single Israeli soldier ever set foot in Judea and Samaria…

In May, the Palestinian Authority requested assistance from the Israel Defense Forces Home Front following the collapse of a roof on a construction site in Ni'lin, west of Ramallah. Home Front rescue and medical units were sent in right away to search for possible trapped workers and to offer primary medical care to the injured.

In a ceremony held in Munich on June 2, nine local Jews were ordained as Orthodox rabbis for the first time since World War II. Until now, most rabbis serving in Germany had been trained abroad.
