Dear Children of Israel,

The world as we presently know it is on its way out and we must prepare ourselves for the new reality. Hashem told us, "In it's time I will hasten it." We are seeing this happen right now as talk about "evacuating settlements in the West Bank" has given way immediately to the forfeiture of Yerushalayim Ir HaKodesh, G-d forbid!

Behold the "American Vision" of our future:

...the solution will come in the form of a return to the 1967 borders with territorial tradeoffs, rejection of the Palestinian right of return, the establishment of a demilitarized Palestinian state, and the introduction of shared administration of the Holy Sites.

...“The United States recognizes that Jerusalem is a deeply important issue for Israelis and Palestinians, and for Jews, Muslims, and Christians. We believe that through good faith negotiations the parties can mutually agree on an outcome that realizes the aspirations of both parties for Jerusalem, and safeguards its status for people around the world.”

The United States has set itself in direct opposition to the Master of the Universe, Who has other plans.

The entire redemptive process has been coming b'derech teva in stages. First, we returned and began to rebuild. Then we established Jewish rule in Eretz Yisrael. Only after some more time did Holy Jerusalem return to our hands, but we were still cut off from Har Habayit. As the dry bones prophecy of Yekhezkel reveals, the body comes together piece by piece, layer by layer until it stands complete and then Hashem pours out His Spirit within it. We are poised to make this leap into the new reality when the Shekinah returns and the Third and Final Beit HaMikdash will be operational.

With every advance in the process Hashem has returned more and more of our Holy Land to us. The next major war will be the final war. At the end of it, not only will we have complete control of the Temple Mount, but our land area will have increased as well to include the EAST Bank of the Jordan River.

In Chapter 50 of the writings of Yirmiyahu HaNavi, we see that there is a final end for Babylon, which is being accomplished in our own time with the current war in Iraq:

...Tell among the nations and let it be heard and raise a standard; let them hear and do not hide it. Say, "Babylon has been taken, Bel has been shamed, Merodach is dismayed, her images have been shamed, her idols have been dismayed. For a nation has marched against her from the north; he shall make her land a desolation, and no one shall dwell therein; both man and beast have wandered, yea they have gone. In those days and in that time, says the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together; they shall go along weeping, and they shall seek the Lord their God. They shall inquire of Zion; their faces are directed hitherward. "Come and join the Lord [with] an everlasting covenant that shall not be forgotten."

My people were lost sheep, their shepherds caused them to stray, [to the] mountains [they] led them astray; from mountain to hill they went, they forgot their resting place. All who found them devoured them, and their adversaries said, "We are not to blame because they sinned against the Lord, the habitation of justice and the hope of their forefathers-the Lord."

...For behold I am arousing and bringing up upon Babylon an alliance of great nations from the north land, and they shall set themselves in array against her, from there she shall be taken; ....Therefore, so said the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel; Behold I visit retribution upon the king of Babylon and upon his land, as I visited upon the king of Assyria.

And I will return Israel to his dwelling and he shall pasture in the Carmel and the Bashan, and in Mount Ephraim and Gilead shall his soul be sated. In those days and at that time, says the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought, but it shall not be there, and the sins of Judah, but they shall not be found, for I will forgive those I leave over.

It is in this context of Babylon's final downfall that we see the promised return to ALL the Land of Israel. Carmel is west of the Jordan River, Bashan is east of it. Mount Ephraim is west of the Jordan River, Gilead is east of it.

Our best days are still ahead of us, Children! The entire world as well as many Jews, chas v'chalilah, believe that this "Palestinian State" and the forfeiture of all of Hashem's promises to us are a foregone conclusion. Nothing could be further from the Truth!!

Prepare, Children, Prepare! You will yet see the complete fulfillment of everything b'yameinu---in OUR days!!

Wishing you a chag kasher v'sameach with the Korban Pesach!!!
