At the moment when opposition to Iranian nukes seems to collapse
At the moment when the Muslim Brotherhood seems poised to control a caliphate with a few breaks
At the moment when strategically Israel faces it's most daunting survival questions
At the moment when antisemitism around the world has regained a chic cachet
At the moment when Israel SINGLE semi friendly muslim nation (Turkey) turns decisively to islamism
At the moment when Israel has never been so isolated internationally
At the moment when the US domestic political control teeters and tips away from Israel ...
Millions pour into the streets Egypt.
An Egypt armed with M-1's, M-60's, F-16's and the largest army BY FAR in the Middle East?
And the possibility of a 2 front regional war facing one of the world's smallest nations is thrown into chaotic impossibility?
Makes one look up and really wonder.
REALLY WONDER.
When the Jews reached the far side of the Red Sea in the bible it says they did something I find COMPLETELY believable (no matter how they escaped).
(You can hear them sing this in the Prince of Egypt (and good on Hans Zimmer)
Mi chamocha, ba'elim, Adonai?
Mi kamocha, nedar bakodesh, nora tehilot, osei feleh?Shira chadasha shib'chu ge'ulim le'shimcha al s'fat
hayam;
Yachad kulam hodu ve'himlichu ve'amru:
"Adonai yimloch le'olam va'ed."
Who is like you, Adonai, among other gods?
Who is like you, glorious in holiness,
awesome in praises, doing miracles?
With a new song,
the ones You rescued praised Your name at the
sea
shore.
All of them in unison gave thanks
and praised Your rule, and said:
"Adonai will reign for ever and ever."Some things just boggle the mind.
And you JUST HAVE TO WONDER

Jerusalem’s Enemies to Be Destroyed
Zechariah 12
A prophecy: The word of the Lord concerning Israel.
The Lord, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the human spirit within a person, declares: 2 “I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. 3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. 4 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness,” declares the Lord. “I will keep a watchful eye over Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations. 5 Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the Lord Almighty is their God.’
6 “On that day I will make the clans of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will consume all the surrounding peoples right and left, but Jerusalem will remain intact in her place.
7 “The Lord will save the dwellings of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and of Jerusalem’s inhabitants may not be greater than that of Judah. 8 On that day the Lord will shield those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord going before them. 9 On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.
Powerful post Epa.
