We meet today at a crossroads of history. Our world is in upheaval. In the Middle East, Iran's axis of terror confronts America, Israel, and our Arab friends. This is not a clash of civilizations. It's a clash between barbarism and civilization. It's a clash between those who glorify death and those who sanctify life. For the forces of civilization to triumph, America and Israel must stand together. Because when we stand together, something very simple happens. We win, they lose. And my friends, I came to assure you today of one thing. We will win. As I am sure that you are aware of by now, on Tuesday this week, pagers used by Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon simultaneously exploded by remote detonation. Thousands of pagers. Then on day two on Wednesday, explosives contained in thousands of walkie-talkies were detonated. at the same time, killing 14 and wounding hundreds. It was very interesting on day two on Wednesday, nine were killed at a funeral for people killed on Tuesday. Thousands have been injured, more than 3,000 last I saw. 32 killed, including children, according to the latest report that I've seen. Also, I noticed in one article that the Iranian ambassador was among the wounded And all of this was done from what I've read to kill eight Hezbollah fighters. Apparently Hezbollah switched to pagers after Hezbollah's chief of staff was assassinated. They replaced their cell phones because of the ability for Israel to track them on these cell phones. So in February, the Hezbollah leader ordered phones to be broken. Thousands of pagers were ordered. from a company in Taiwan called Gold Apollo. In early reports this week, it was not clear as to what caused the pagers to explode. Was it implanted explosives like C4, plastic explosive substance that is used in military combat for demolition? Was it malware causing the batteries to overheat? The Wall Street Journal cited sources saying that the targeted pagers were part of a new shipment that Hezbollah had recently received. So what was obvious was that this was done remotely because thousands of pagers and then also walkie-talkies exploded simultaneously. American whistleblower Edward Snowden was cited in an article, I believe in the New York Times, On Wednesdays, making this statement, what Israel has done is via any method reckless. They blew up countless numbers of people who were driving, meaning cars out of control, shopping, your children are in a stroller standing behind him in the checkout line, et cetera. Indistinguishable from terrorism. Al Jazeera's senior political analyst provided a reality check by giving this comparison or the scenario for Western audiences with this statement. For our viewers around the world, it is probably helpful to do some role play here. Imagine 1,200 people active in the Pentagon, State Department, and CIA had pagers explode in their faces, arms, and abdominals. How would you think the U.S. would feel about that? Mondoweiss.net quoted the New York Times with this statement. According to American and other officials briefed on the attack, Israel hid explosive material in a shipment of Taiwanese-made pagers imported into Lebanon. The explosive material, as little as one or two ounces, was inserted next to the battery in each pager, two of the officials said. The pagers, which Hezbollah had ordered from the Gold Apollo Company in Taiwan, had been tampered with before they reached Lebanon. According to one official, Israel calculated that the risk of harming people not affiliated with Hezbollah was low, given the size of the explosive." So we have pagers, walkie-talkies. Also, and according to one report, the Lebanese media stated that home solar energy systems also exploded. So consider with me, could smartphones be used in similar attacks? One estimate that I've seen is between five and seven billion, five to seven billion cell phone users worldwide. So what about the TSA? How is the TSA going to respond to this? Are they going to forbid cell phones now on planes? So who is responsible for this attack? seen some references to Israel, but thedailymail.com, September 18th said, inside Israeli's Trojan horse pager attack, how explosives were secretly implanted in Hezbollah gadgets in meticulously planned Mossad op as murky trail emerges from Taiwan to Hungarian factory. Let me also quote from informationliberation.com, In fact, they mentioned that 32 people, at least 32 people in two successive attacks, including four children and injured around 3,150 people in order to allegedly kill some eight Hezbollah fighters. Now they quote from the New York Times, how Israel built a modern day Trojan horse exploding pagers. And according from this article on September 18th, By all appearances, BAC Consulting was a Hungary-based company that was under contract to produce the devices on behalf of a Taiwanese company, Gold Apollo. In fact, it was part of an Israeli front, according to three intelligence officers briefed on the operation. They said at least two other shell companies were created as well to mask the real identities of the people creating the pagers, Israeli intelligence officers. BAC did take on ordinary clients for which it produced a range of ordinary pagers. But the only client that really mattered was Hezbollah, and its pagers were far from ordinary. Produced separately, they contained batteries laced with the explosive PETN, according to the three intelligence officers. The pagers began shipping to Lebanon in the summer of 2022 in small numbers, but production was quickly ramped up after Mr. Nasrallah denounced cell phones. Over the summer, shipments of the pagers to Lebanon increased, with thousands arriving in the country and being distributed among Hezbollah officers and their allies, according to two American intelligence officials. To Hezbollah, they were a defensive measure, but in Israel, intelligence officers referred to the pagers as buttons that could be pushed when the time seemed right. That moment, it appears, came this week. Another statement from informationliberation.com, the walkie-talkies Israel blew up on Wednesday likely had similar origins. Again, quoting from the New York Times, company says it is investigating radios targeted in Lebanon blasts. The Japanese manufacturer whose name was on the handheld radios that exploded in Lebanon, said Thursday that it had discontinued the device a decade ago and was investigating what happened. The company, ICOM, a telecommunications equipment maker based in Osaka, Japan, had shipped ICV82 transceivers, the model whose name is seen on radios and photos and a video of the aftermath of Wednesday's attacks, to overseas markets including the Middle East from 2004 to October 2014. ICOM said in a statement Thursday that it had not shipped any of the ICV82 radios from its plant in Wakayama, Japan in roughly a decade. But the company has long warned of what it called a surge in counterfeit ICV82 transceivers. At least 20 people were killed and more than 450 wounded when walkie-talkies owned by Hezbollah members exploded across Lebanon. It was unclear where Hezbollah purchased the devices that exploded. And in this final statement from Information Liberation, no one has a clue how many of these devices are still out there and actively being manufactured, which Israel could trigger to explode at any moment. Israel has issued no official comment, as far as I've seen, no official comment on the explosions, the explosives involved with these devices. However, Israel's defense minister has declared a new phase of war in the Middle East. The Israeli Air Force, according to news that I've seen today, in the latest news, there was massive bombing, there was a massive bombing campaign in Southern Lebanon. But the UN sent out a statement in relation to these devices and the explosives that were used, referring to this as a preemptive strike before a major military operation. Apparently, that major military operation started today. Elijah Magnier, who's a political risk analyst based in Brussels, reported that he spoke to Hezbollah members who examined the pagers that had failed to explode. These pagers received a coded error message sent to all of the devices, causing them to vibrate and beep for 10 seconds. When the users pushed the button to cancel the alert, explosives were detonated. And so obviously, many of these users were holding the device in their hands. I want for us to put this in historical context. And now I want for us to look at it biblically as well. Former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan said this, Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother. Israel has been proving itself to be a mad dog, too dangerous to bother. Israel has indiscriminately, routinely bombed civilian populations to root out Hamas and Hezbollah. We've seen it in Gaza. We've seen it in the Western Bank. We're seeing it in Lebanon. We've seen it in Iran, various places. They have a military policy that I want to make sure you understand, as I look this up and did a little brief study on this. It's called the Dahiyya Doctrine. Dahiyya. D-A-H-I-Y-A, Dahiyya Doctrine. This is an Israeli military strategy. And the strategy involves this, destruction of civilian infrastructure to pressure hostile regimes. That's a summary statement that's used to describe the Dahiyya Doctrine that Israel uses with their military. What we've seen in Gaza is what we see constantly in Lebanon and various places as far as this military strategy, targeting apartment buildings, civilian communities, to go after eight Hezbollah fighters. Israel has targeted schools, hospitals, refugee camps. That's their Dahiya doctrine. put into practice. I'm currently preaching through 1st and 2nd Thessalonians. And as I was doing some reading on this account, there's three verses that came to my mind from 1st Thessalonians 2. I wanna bring them in at this point for us to understand this biblically. For ye brethren became followers of the churches of God, which in Judea are in Christ Jesus. For ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews, who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets and have persecuted us." Do a reading of the book of Acts. Just read through the book of Acts and see how many times this took place. Right from the start, from the ascension, even before the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ, the opposition of the Jews, they killed the Lord Jesus That's what it says in Acts chapter two. It says, they please not God, and listen to this statement, and are contrary to all men. When are we going to start understanding and believing what the Bible says? We are protecting a Zionist Marxist government. I am not opposed to Jews. In fact, I want Jews to believe in their Messiah. totally different from any dispensational Zionists, who give Israel a pass, sending them to an eternal lake of fire. Forbidding us, verse 16, to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins all way. For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. How many times have we heard 1948 was a miraculous, amazing fulfillment of prophecy in the establishment of the UN state of Israel. What has changed? I keep asking this question. I have not been given a legitimate Bible answer from dispensational Zionists. What has changed? What was different in 1948? What has changed? So let me ask you, why doesn't the United States resist Israel's military strategy? This Dahiyya doctrine of totally destroying civilian populations to supposedly root out Hezbollah, Hamas fighters. First of all, blind Zionism. And let me just say this, I'm increasingly seeing that as far as even Baptist preachers, there's a rabid Zionism in American pulpits. That is not scriptural. It is not godly for us to desire hundreds and thousands of people to be slaughtered and sent early into eternity. We are to be wanting souls saved. That's why God says he's delayed his coming. He's not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Second of all, I want you to consider, our government has been taken over by a foreign power. I'm gonna give you some evidence of this. Back in April, I came across an article that's entitled, Biden's Government is Not a Government. This is written by Stephen Miller, and this is what he writes here as far as the Biden administration. Biden's government is not a government. Real government controls its officers. Biden or his handlers have no government authority to control those who do not swear an oath of office to faithfully uphold the Constitution. The law, according to Title V, U.S. Code Section 3331, requires elected or appointed officials to swear oaths to support, defend, and bear true faith and allegiance to the Constitution of the United States. It requires a very specific oath. Title V, section 3332 requires a signed and notarized oath of office to be filed within 30 days. U.S. Attorney Todd Callender and his team at Project Proper Oath found that not a single cabinet member has an oath of office that meets the requirements of law. Without an oath, there is no government authority. There is no chain of command. I believe that explains a lot of what's going on on the border and so many other things in relation to the United States Treasury, all of that. Here's a list that was given in this article. Janet Yellen, Secretary of the Treasury, has no oath of office. Lloyd Austin, Secretary of Defense, has no oath of office. Merrick Garland, Attorney General, has no oath of office. Anthony Blinken, Secretary of State, no oath of office. Elandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security, has no oath of office. Very interesting what's happening on the border in light of that. Pete Buttigieg, Secretary of Transportation, has no oath of office. Javier Becerra, Secretary of Health and Human Services, no oath of office. Jack Smith, Special Investigator of J6 Capital Protesters, has no oath of office. Matthew Graves, US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Chief Prosecutor of J6 Protesters, has no oath of office. On January 10, 1963, there were 45 communist goals published in the Congressional Record. Number 13 was to do away with loyalty oaths. Our government is under the control of communism, Marxism. And let me just point out that several of those that I just listed from this article identify as Ashkenazi Jews. There can be no insubordination unless there are subordinates. Without a chain of command, there can be no crime of mutiny. They do not see that they're committing a crime because they're not subordinate to our constitution. The definition of mutiny, according to Webster's Dictionary, an insurrection of soldiers or seamen against the authority of their commanders, open resistance of officers or opposition to their authority. Acts of individuals amounting to a resistance of the authority or lawful commands of officers are declared to be mutiny. That's very interesting article in light of what's going on in our nation today. Third reason, why doesn't the United States resist Israel's military strategy? Because of compromised history of our own. Listen to this statement from US White House spokesman, John Kirby. as to why we cannot condemn the activities of Israel. We have conducted airstrikes in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, where tragically we caused civilian casualties. We did the same thing. We owned up to it. We investigated it, and we tried to make changes to the way – we tried to learn from it, to make changes so that that – those set of mistakes wouldn't happen again, including as we pulled out of Afghanistan, where we did take a – we conducted an airstrike which tragically killed a father and some of his kids. We atoned for it, we learned from it, and we put in place procedures to try to prevent that from happening again. And that's what our expectations would be in this case. And as I was putting this together, I thought of former US Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright. Of course, after her death, her history was whitewashed. Bill Clinton said this about Albright, a passionate force for freedom, democracy, and human rights. Talk about whitewashing her history. In an interview with CBS 60 Minutes in 1996, Madeline Albright was asked by journalist Leslie Stahl about the death of 500,000 Iraqi children. As she asked Madeline Albright this question, was it worth it? Her answer, I think that it is a very hard choice, but the price, we think the price is worth it. I remind you again of the statement in 1 Thessalonians 2 and verse 15. They please not God and are contrary to all men. As we close, I have a question to ask. Who are the real terrorists? And I have another question for dispensational Zionists to consider. It says they are contrary to all men. Ashkenazi Jews despise all Goyim. So what are we going to do when they turn on American Goyim? Something for us to think about as we consider who the real terrorists are in the Middle East.
