A sentire i mass-media, la "questione Palestinese" sarebbe semplicissima: i buoni figli d'Israele che combattono i malvagi terroristi palestinesi, dipinti come i soliti irrequieti rozzi fanatici dell'Islam. Invece «la Palestina non è un oggetto morto ..: la Palestina è ciò che i palestinesi creano in tempo reale, esattamente come la Francia è ciò che i francesi stanno creando nella loro vita di ogni giorno. .. I palestinesi non sono una gente oscura, rozza. Essi crearono la Stella di Ghassul, scrissero la Bibbia, costruirono i templi di Gerusalemme e di Garizim, i palazzi di Gerico e di Samaria, le chiese del Santo Sepolcro e della Natività, le moschee del Haram A-Sharif, i porti di Cesarea e Akka, le fortezze di Montfort e Belvoir.» (da "Perchè sostengo il ritorno dei Palestinesi", di Israel Shamir)
Ben Gurion, all'atto della fondazione dello stato [di Israele, il 14 maggio 1948,] aveva detto: «Quando viene l'ora di Dio, nessuno può fermarla.» Anche Menachem Begin la pensava allo stesso modo. Isaak Shamir sembra abbia detto alla presenza di un gruppo di turisti cristiani: «Ci troviamo ancora nell'ombra, ma un giorno si adempirà Romani 9, 10 e 11 e Israele si rafforzerà con il suo Messia.» (da un articolo di Norbert Lieth - vedi foto qua accanto)
Fra cerimonie oscure e magia nera, operazioni bancarie a dir poco sospette e profezie bibliche sul ritrovamento in Israele del più grande giacimento di petrolio del mondo, ecco cosa realmente bolle in pentola da quelle parti.

LOW INTENSITY GENOCIDE
by Michael A. Hoffman II of Independent History & Research (Box 849, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho 83816)
.. International volunteers and six Palestinian medical staff were allowed to pass through an Israeli checkpoint but were then stopped by tanks. "Two Israeli tanks approached us and fired warning shots. We stopped and formed a circle around the Palestinians. The Israeli soldiers threw a percussion grenade. .. They pushed us to the ground and beat and kicked the men. .. Our aim was to visit Balata camp where the food and water situation is very bad. The unconfirmed toll there is 25 injured and 17 dead," she added. Having just visited the Rafidia Hospital in Nablus, she added that there were "79 bodies in the hospital, some of them in the dairy truck because the morgue is full." Source: Irish Times. April 18, 2002.
.. Using helicopter gunships, F16 fighter jets, tanks, and bulldozers, Israeli forces launched a pogrom against Arab villages on the West Bank beginning March 29, as part of a policy of collective punishment of the Palestinian people
.. In the center of the Jenin refugee camp, reached yesterday (April 16, 2002) by The Independent, .. thousands of people are still living amid the ruins. .. The sweet and ghastly reek of rotting human bodies is everywhere. .. The people, who spent days hiding in basements crowded into single rooms as the rockets pounded in, say there are hundreds of corpses. .. A quiet, sad-looking young man called Kamal Anis led us across the wasteland. .. This was a mass grave, he said, pointing. .. Here, he said, he saw the Israeli soldiers pile 30 bodies beneath a half-wrecked house. When the pile was complete, they bulldozed the building, bringing its ruins down on the corpses. Then they flattened the area with a tank. We could not see the bodies. But we could smell them.
A few days ago, we might not have believed Kamal Anis. But the descriptions given by the many other refugees who escaped from Jenin camp were understated, not, as many feared and Israel encouraged us to believe, exaggerations. Their stories had not prepared me for what I saw yesterday. I believe them now.
.. The UN says half of the camp's residents were under 18. .. Israel .. had refused entry to Red Cross ambulances for nearly a week, in violation of the Geneva Convention. .. Jenin, in the northern end of the occupied West Bank, remained "a closed military zone": .. reporters caught trying to get in were escorted out. A day earlier the Israeli armed forces took in a few selected journalists to see sanitized parts of the camp. We simply walked across the fields .. into the camp itself.
We were led in by hands gesturing at windows. Hidden, whispering people directed us through narrow alleys. .. When there were soldiers about, a finger would raise in warning, or a hand waved us back. We were welcomed by people desperate to tell what had occurred. They spoke of executions, and bulldozers wrecking homes with people inside. .. Jamel Saleh, 43, said: ".. Look at this boy.", .. the eight-year-old son of a friend. "He saw all this evil. He will remember it all." So will everyone else who saw the horror of Jenin refugee camp. Palestinians who entered the camp yesterday were almost speechless.
.. Rarely, in more than a decade of war reporting from Bosnia, Chechnya, Sierra Leone, Kosovo, have I seen such deliberate destruction, such disrespect for human life. .. Amnesty International called for an immediate investigation into "the killings of hundreds of Palestinians", saying crucial evidence may be destroyed as Israel "continues to impede access". Throughout the camp, which the Israelis called a production line for terrorists, there is the stench of death, of bodies that have been rotting in the sun for days.
.. I have seen demolished houses before. I have seen wells stuffed with bodies. I have seen civilians terrorized and living under siege. But what remains of Jenin camp is a wasteland of death... "I saw some children who were wounded take four days to die, bleeding to death because there was no one here to tend them," says Fahdi Jamal, a 30-year-old laborer.
.. If Jews anywhere in the world were made to endure such conditions, there would be howls of outrage from the White House and media over the "Nazi-like" treatment. But when the Israelis herd the Palestinians like cattle, it's considered entirely fitting by Jewish supremacists such as "Holocaust Survivor" Elie Wiesel, who today, April 15, gave a speech in in Washington D.C., congratulating the Israelis on their pogrom
.. On April 15, the United Nations human rights commission condemned "mass killings" of Palestinians and demanded the end of "acts of mass killings perpetrated by the Israeli occupying authorities." The Geneva-based Commission on Human Rights ruled that the Israelis were guilty of "gross violations" of humanitarian law and the commission upheld the "legitimate right of Palestinian people to resist." The Commission on Human Rights expressed grave concern at "the killing of men, women and children" in West Bank refugee camps, among them Jenin, where Israeli troops of massacred Palestinian women and children.
"A United Nations vehicle with supplies of flour and sugar had been denied access to the (Jenin) camp, as well as the Red Cross. 'For over a week now,' one senior UN official said.
.. Eyewitness Baha Awad, a paramedic with a the local ambulance, saw soldiers go ahead and bulldoze a house in Jenin with a retarded Palestinian man inside. His parents ran out, screaming that their mentally handicapped son was still stuck inside the structure. He was buried alive by the Israeli bulldozer anyway.
.. A Palestinian resident of Jenin, Luka Tomei, saw a Palestinian man shot down in the street by Israelis. "He had no guns. He said: 'I want a doctor. I want to go to the hospital. They shot him." She also testified that an Israeli sniper shot down an elderly Palestinian lady.
.. The Israeli Supreme Court on April 14 denied a demand by human rights groups to stop the mass burial of Palestinian bodies in pits, which has been the practice of the Israeli army thus far.
.. Palestinian children desperate for water after the Israeli army intentionally smashed water tanks and supplies in their neighborhood, collect water from a broken pipe in the Palestinian village of Dhahreiah, near Hebron, April 14, 2002. Because of the Israeli siege and blockade, many Palestinian children had been forced to drink sewage water, or urine mixed with powdered milk.
.. Maaz Staty, age 22 , says his mother died in this way, her home bulldozed with her inside. Witness Isa Weshaky mentions his cousin, Ataf Dasouki, aged 52, who opened the door of his home when commanded to by Israeli soldiers, and was then shot down.
"Israeli officers...interviewed by Ha'aretz (Israeli newspaper)...admit the Palestinian claims of extensive damage, including the bulldozing of houses. They admit too that Israeli soldiers fired on ambulances to drive them away from recovering the wounded." Source:"The Observer," (U.K.), April 14, 2002.
.. "Fighting is the wrong word: it suggests a parity of violence."
.. One man spoke of receiving a call on his cell phone on April 11 from a Palestinian family trapped beneath the rubble of his bulldozed home inside the camp. On April 12 the family's phone went dead. .. A combination of an Israeli ban on the media and the clever method the Israelis have devised for disposing of the bodies of hundreds of their victims, almost guarantees there will be no holocaust-like photos of mounds of Palestinian cadavers. .. Palestinians say that the United States has written off Palestinian civilian casualties as incidental: .. "Every Israeli death is a big event. But we are just statistics. Because an Israeli soldier does it, it is not terrorism. Why not?"
.. Ramallah city hall was ransacked and its second floor burned. Deeds, tax receipts, building permits and other documents important to governing a city disappeared. The possibility that deeds were destroyed is particularly important in an area where successive Israeli governments have confiscated property on the grounds that the owner possessed no documents. ..
"Israeli troops continued their strenuous efforts to prevent independent witnesses entering the bloodiest battlefield.... With Colin Powell, the US Secretary of State, arriving in Jerusalem last night the soldiers blocked the United Nations, the Red Cross and the media from entering the 'closed military area' (Jenin)...Some journalists were detained. One had his press card ripped up. Footage filmed by a television cameraman was confiscated. The few pictures that did emerge from the camp showed scenes of devastation. .. An international group representing the UN, the Red Cross and the Norwegian Government .. were turned away. Their cars were illegally searched and their cameras confiscated.
.. Dr. Ziad Ayaseh, the [Jenin] hospital's director, [said that] Israeli missiles took out several water tanks on the roof, threatening the hospital's water supply. .. The army siege blocked fuel supplies that power the hospital's generator--the only source of electric power.
.. Just before Ahmed and Bassam Fashafsheh's stone home, the street narrowed and the tank couldn't squeeze by. Issam Fashafsheh, a relative, said he watched early this week as the tank fired ...into the house, backed up and moved aside so the bulldozer could advance. The bulldozer knocked in the wall of the living room, killing the middle-aged couple and their 9-year-old son, Samira.
.. From one end of what had been the ancient casbah to the other, the residents of Nablus searched through the rubble that had been their homes and cried for help because one relative or another was buried in it. "I have two aunts still underneath," cried Bashar Fratiekeh, pointing to a pile of rocks. "The whole house collapsed on us. It was 200 years old!" After four days of Israeli bombing and shelling, the casbah, as the centuries-old architectural treasure at the center of Nablus is known, has been utterly destroyed by Israeli barbarians. Palestinian survivors wander dazed through the ruined streets, recounted indiscriminate bombing by helicopter gunships and fighter jets firing volley after volley into the densely packed civilian residences in the casbah. "They bombed all the night," said Muhammad Abu Hatham, 52, a shopkeeper.
.. The devastation in civilian areas inflicted by Israeli tanks, bulldozers, helicopters and jet fighters has created an eerie moonscape of ruin from Bethlehem to Jenin: .. broken pipes gushing precious water, .. electricity poles snapped like sticks .. The Gaza airport is laced with deep trenches, the nascent Palestinian seaport is destroyed. "In 1999 we were building new infrastructure, roads, apartments, a seaport, strategic projects," said Muhammad Shtayyeh, the director of the Palestinian Economic Council for Development and Reconstruction, PECDAR, talking of development that was now gone with Sharon's fiery wind.The infrastructure of life itself and of any future Palestinian state - roads, schools, electricity pylons, water pipes, telephone lines - has been eradicated by the Zionists.
.. The Israeli view is that every Palestinian is "Amalek," a member of the nation which, in the Old Testament, God called on the Israelites to exterminate, "man, woman, and suckling child." The Israeli Army chaplain Shmuel Derlich has openly labeled the Palestinian people as Amalek, as have dozens of other influential Israeli rabbis.
.. Israeli tanks and soldiers raid the streets, and shots are fired in all directions. A safe corner in a Palestinian home today can be a deathbed tomorrow. Palestinian civilians cannot step outside for fear of being shot by an Israeli sniper. Human beings are not treated in this manner. Amalek is. Collective punishment of an entire population is not only a racist Jewish war crime, it is insane.
.. Jenin refugee camp used to be a poor but peaceful community of 13,000 on a West Bank hillside overlooking a fertile plain. But five days of relentless bombardment by Israeli tanks and helicopter gunships have left large parts of it in ruins and Palestinians bleeding to death in its alleys for lack of medical care. The army has now seized control of most of the camp and is butchering its residents. Residents who have fled to safe havens outside say decomposing bodies litter its narrow alleys. They spoke of seeing wounded Palestinians moaning for help. The Jewish army is using bulldozers to crush homes, with families still inside them, in Jenin's Al Hawashin neighborhood.
At least 200 Palestinians are reported as having been killed in Jenin alone, but the headline on the front page of today's edition of the New York Times reads, "13 Israeli Soldiers are Killed." Jewish blood is redder and their life is preferable, says leading Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburg and the U.S. media concurs. White House spokesman Ari Fleischer, who affiliates with the Lubavitcher Jewish supremacist hate group, said today that "...Arab responsibilities are to stop what he said was news media incitement of hatred against Jews." (NY Times, April 9, 2002).
.. Saudi Arabia said it .. had enough oil to cover any losses caused by a 30-day halt in exports by Iraq. Iraq called the halt to protest the Israeli genocide. The oil boycott hit the genocide-supporters where it hurts, in their pocketbooks, since they have no conscience when it comes to otherwise contentedly watching Palestinian mothers and children shot to death by state terrorists. But the Saudis have rescued Bush and the American economy--temporarily anyway.
.. Objective observers of the Israeli scene have long noted the distinct Israeli penchant for lying, the more outrageous the better. This heritage of lies is, sad to say, of religious origin. The Talmud, Judaism's holiest book, decrees: "Jews may use lies ('subterfuge') to circumvent a Gentile" (Baba Kamma 113a).
.. The United Nations children's agency Unicef says it has been unable to deliver crucial aid to the Palestinian communities in the West Bank over the past five days. A representative of Save the Children in the West Bank says one of the major problems is that the humanitarian efforts are hampered by Israeli soldiers. "... there is no respect for the humanitarian missions," Marie-Louise Weighill said from the West Bank. "The Israeli Defense Forces are not allowing any humanitarian agencies to operate in areas under their control."
.. An Israeli army stun grenade explodes next to a TV cameraman attempting to report events in Ramallah, April 5, 2002
.. The deadliest Israeli attacks April 5 were in Nablus and Jenin. Apache attack helicopters launched rocket attacks repeatedly on downtown Nablus. The Jewish onslaught increased in the evening and continued for most of the night. Houses in the casbah and in the teeming Balata refugee camp were sprayed with heavy machine-gun fire by the Israeli army.
.. In Bethlehem today (April 5,2002), reporters tried to get to Bethlehem's Manger Square, where Palestinians have sought sanctuary in the Church of the Nativity. Several hundred yards from the square, Israeli troops opened fire on the reporters, hitting a television cameraman from France in the leg. "If you don't like it, we don't care," said Lt. Col. Olivier Rafowicz, an Israeli army spokesman. Jewish attacks on reporters are nothing new. Last month Italian reporter Raffaele Ciriello, 42, killed in Ramallah by machine-gun fire from an Israeli tank.
.. Torture of Palestinians by Israelis has a shameful and savage history. In September of 1999 the Israeli Supreme Court ruled that torture of Palestinians was permissible "in emergencies in which civilian lives are at stake."
On the medical front, in Ramallah city alone, Israeli troops have invaded Palestinian hospitals three times, ransacking operating rooms and medical supplies. The International Committee of the Red Cross announced April 5 that it was reducing operations in Palestine to "a strict minimum" after Red Cross staff and medics were attacked by Jewish soldiers. Red Cross staff were threatened at gunpoint by Israelis in Bethlehem and shot at in Nablus and Ramallah by the Israeli army. Ambulances were crushed by Israeli tanks in Tulkarm. The Red Cross leadership issued the following statement: "This behavior is totally unacceptable, for it jeopardizes not only the lifesaving work of emergency medical services, but also the ICRC's humanitarian mission."
.. In Ramallah, whose population has been under Israeli tanks and guns for a week, the water is running out because the electric system that drives the pumps is destroyed. In a third of the town, the electricity itself is out. .. An emergency Palestinian utilities crew went out April 4 to try and repair Ramallah's water pump system, but were harassed by Israeli troops and turned back. They tried a second time and were bound and gagged and taken away by the Israeli army.
Nearly every car that was parked on the street when the Israelis blitzkrieged into Ramallah early on March 29 has been run over by a tank and flattened. Buildings that used to house Palestinian institutions in this city of 160,000 are now wrecked.
All of the stores are closed and shuttered. Food is running out. Salwa Daibis said she won't try to go to the store even if the curfew is lifted again, as it was for a few hours April 2, because, she said, she saw a 14-year-old Palestinian teenager shot by an Israeli soldier April 2. She said, "I don't want to die for a piece of bread."
.. The Jews have declared Ramallah a closed military zone, meaning reporters are banned. A new list of media-ban zones issued by the Jewish government includes every city and town the Israeli army has invaded since March 29.
.. The Israeli army assaulted Nablus, April 4, 2002, with the Palestinian population of the crowded city coming under withering artillery and helicopter attack. Three refugee camps were bombarded using more than 100 tanks in an attack that lasted all day. Palestinian residents reported that buildings around them exploded in a cascade of shrapnel as Israeli helicopter gunships provided by the United States fired at homes.
.. In Bethlehem, doctors resorted to sneaking wounded Palestinians under piles of the dead because ambulances were being stopped or their movements restricted by the Israelis. .. Dr. Husam Al-Johari, said: "Ambulances are not reaching the injured so the injured are not reaching the hospital." One of the town's obstetricians, Dr. Salwa Najjab, has had to deliver babies over the telephone because she and her patients are not allowed to travel by the Israeli military. .. She said that one expectant mother encountered more problems when sent to the Red Crescent Maternity Hospital in El Bireh, only to discover Israeli soldiers arresting Palestinian doctors and nurses. Hospital staff said that the soldiers kidnapped two doctors, two nurses and a medic, who were handcuffed and blindfolded.
.. TV camermen are not allowed to film in Palestinian cities under attack and reporters who attempt to photograph the latest Israeli holocaust against the Palestinians have had grenades thrown at them.
.. Two Palestinians bled to death April 3 in the Fawagrah neighborhood, because ambulances couldn't reach them through streets filled with Israeli sniper fire.
.. The United Nations said a convoy bringing food to the besieged city of Ramallah on April 3 was shot at by Israeli marauders. A U.N. staff member accompanying the humanitarian aid trucks was arrested. .. A reporter for al-Jazeera satellite television, Majdi Benoura, was shot in the neck by Israelis as he was photographing the Israeli assault on Bethlehem from the roof of a hotel.
.. The Israeli government on April 2 banned journalists Leileh Odeh and Bassam Azawi of Abu Dhabi Television news from reporting any longer in Palestine, after the pair broadcast a report on March 31 investigating the summary execution of a group of young Palestinian men in Ramallah by the Israeli army. The Israelis charged that the TV reporters had showed "utter disregard" for Israeli military censorship rules. .. Eyewitnesses said Israeli soldiers used 60 Palestinian civilians as human shields in front of the tanks before the attack [to] the headquarters of Palestinian Preventive Security outside Ramallah early April 2. .. The Israeli army banned reporters from the scene.
In the center of Ramallah, Israeli soldiers used vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft guns to pulverize the facades of buildings packed with residents. .. An 11-year-old Palestinian boy was killed by gunfire from Israeli soldiers as he played near a market in Rafah, in the Gaza Strip.
.. BEIT JALA, West Bank (Compiled from Wire Services, April 1, 2002) - Seven foreign peace activists and a television cameraman were wounded Monday when an Israeli soldier fired at the ground in front of them. .. An Israeli soldier also kicked and pushed a Reuters cameraman and fired one shot over his head while the cameraman was covering the demonstration.
.. "We were just marching in front of the tank and far away from our position they began to shoot live ammunition on the international (demonstrators). "The marchers raised their hands in a peaceful way and they started shooting immediately"
.. Palestinians are viewed through a Talmudic lens [linkare], as sub-humans. They're not Jews, so genocide against them simply doesn't register.
.. The Israeli army announced March 31 it will forcibly remove European human rights activists and news reporters from the Palestinian city of Ramallah. The Jewish army has declared the Palestinian city of Ramallah "a closed military zone" in the hope that their soldiers can slaughter the population without undue publicity.
The Israeli army has taken over the Ramallah offices of foreign news organizations, including Reuters, expelling the journalists. The Israeli killers have a lot to hide and the ban on the media is necessary before completely unrestrained Jewish butchery can be implemented against Palestinian civilians.
.. The Foreign Press Association (FPA) protested against the Israeli army's command. "The media must be allowed to cover this major story. We call upon the Israeli government to allow free and independent coverage of the operation in Palestinian Authority areas,'' the FPA said in a statement. At least two journalists, including Anthony Shadid of the Boston Globe and Carlos Handal of Abu Dhabi TV, have been shot by Israeli soldiers in Ramallah since March 29. Shadid was shot in the shoulder March 31. Handal was shot in the face March 29. ..
Israeli Soldiers Broadcast Pornography on Seized TV Stations .. in Ramallah.
.. The soldiers started broadcasting the porn clips -- considered extremely offensive by most Palestinians -- intermittently in the afternoon from the Al-Watan, Ammwaj, and Al-Sharaq stations. "The pornographic movies started on Al-Watan television at around 3:30 pm. .. We are desperate for news and constantly flipping channels and get these terrible pictures instead," adding that videos of the intifada were also shown backwards with "ideal terrorism" written in red across the screen.
.. Israeli tanks and troops are rampaging throughout Ramallah, demanding over loudspeakers for all Palestinian boys and men ages 15 to 45 to come out for "questioning." 500 have been kidnapped by the Israelis thus far and dragged away, bound and gagged for torture, and in some cases, mass murder.
The round-up is particularly ominous in light of Israeli killings from March 7 to March 16, in which more than 150 Palestinian males between the ages of 15 and 45 were shot to death. On March 8 alone, Israeli troops shot and killed 40 Palestinians. Journalists have been expelled from Ramallah so that this low intensity Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people can proceed without publicity. ..
LA BRUTALITÀ DELL'ESERCITO ISRAELIANO
da un'email che ho ricevuto
UNA GIORNATA IN PALESTINA
di Francesca, Giovanni, Luca, Fabio - Associazione Papa Giovanni XXIII - su Non Violenti.org, riportato da Promiseland
Oggi [3 marzo 2002] siamo a Ramallah sotto le bombe degli F16. .. Abitiamo nel quartiere musulmano, a Gerusalemme Est, ai confini della citta' vecchia. Siamo un po' shoccati, incontriamo Saed, il palestinese che ci ospita, e gli raccontiamo. Sono morti dei bambini, diciamo e lui ci risponde che si, e' vero, ma ogni giorno muoiono dei bambini, dei bambini palestinesi e noi non ne parliamo, la nostra stampa occidentale non ne parla, poi quando c'e' un attentato contro gli israeliani, tutto il mondo si indigna e i palestinesi diventano tutti terroristi. Questa mattina, arrivati al check-point di Qalandia, al confine con i Territori Occupati, non ci fanno entrare, neanche con il passaporto europeo. Non passa neppure la stampa. Un amico palestinese ci indica una via alternativa per evitare i militari. Arrivati alla periferia di Ramallah sentiamo le raffiche. .. Riusciamo a raggiungere il centro della citta', dove .. un gruppo di volontari che si oppone alla distruzione delle case palestinesi effettuata sistematicamente dai bulldozer israeliani, fornisce assistenza legale alle vittime, monitora gli insediamenti dei coloni. .. Ramallah e' sotto i bombardamenti degli F16 israeliani. Siamo allibiti nel vedere come la gente, seppure la tensione sia fortissima, continui comunque le proprie attivita' quotidiane. Per loro da 16 mesi tutto questo e' la normalita'. .. I check-point sono distribuiti strategicamente e per andare da un villaggio a un altro che dista mezz'ora a piedi bisogna fare un giro assurdo e il viaggio dura un giorno. .. All'improvviso entra un volontario dell'LCD e ci dice che e' meglio uscire in fretta: due elicotteri Apache stanno sorvolando la zona. Sulla strada alcuni ragazzi palestinesi urlano verso gli elicotteri: "Sparateci, siamo qui". Il nostro amico ci dice che le nuove generazioni sono assuefatte a questa realta', l'unica che conoscono. Ora la citta' e' immobile. Tutti guardano il cielo. E' orribile camminare con gli Apaches che ti volano sulla testa. Issa cerca di esorcizzare la nostra paura, scherza, "this is a very crazy world" ci dice sorridendo.
IL MURO DI ISRAELE
di Raffaele Oriani su "Io donna" de "Il corriere della sera", #10 2004
"Una follia non cancella l'altra. E neppure cancella la stupidità" - Abraham B. Yehoshua
(68 anni, scrittore israeliano, a proposito del muro "anti-kamikaze" - 22 febbraio 2004)
Peretz Kidron .. aveva 5 anni quando con la sua famiglia dovette mettersi in salvo dall'avanzata degli sgherri di Hitler. .. E' il decano dei refusnik israeliani, forse il più conosciuto dei tanti riservisti che hanno deciso che a tutto c'è un limite (yesh gvul, si dice in ebraico, ed è lo splendido, umile nome del loro movimento) e che loro nei territori palestinesi, da militari, non metteranno più piede. Per Kidron l'occupazione è terrore che genera terrorismo: "Siamo lì come dirottatori di un aereo, a tenere in scacco milioni di persone solo perchè abbiamo le armi in pugno. .. Perchè tra i palestinesi non abbiamo mandato maestri? Perchè non li abbiamo invasi di operatori sociali? Perchè dobbiamo terrorizzarli." Basta l'immagine di un corpo straziato sul selciato per capire tutto l'orrore del terrorismo palestinese, il dolore dei familiari delle vittime, .. per cogliere fino in fondo che cosa sia l'occupazione israeliana di quest'estremo lembo di costa mediterranea.
A Rafah .. ci vivono in molti: centomila persone terrorizzate da un'occupazione che si fa largo a colpi di bulldozer e incursioni di carri armati. .. A Rafah le forze armate con la stella di David avanzano incattivite dall'assurdità di chi continua a colpire ma non smette di chiedersi: "Che ci faccio qui?". Al check point di Eretz un soldato semplice .. controlla il passaporto e sbotta improvviso: "Non ne possiamo più di difendere con i carri armati 60 famiglie di coloni invasati."
A Rafah corre l'unico confine al mondo presidiato, controllato, assediato verso l'interno invece che verso il nemico che sta dall'altra parte. Fino a qualche anno fa le famiglie di Gaza incontravano i parenti rimasti in Egitto attraverso una rete di recinzione. .. Oggi, [un] altro muro avanza e punta a rinchiudere la cittadina in un anello d'acciaio alto 8 metri, profondo 4. "Gli israeliani dicono che il muro di Rafah servirà a fermare il contrabbando di armi tra l'Egitto e la striscia di Gaza. .. In realtà il progetto è tutt'altro: oltre il muro correrà una strada per separare Gaza dall'Egitto e unire i loro insediamenti all'entroterra israeliano": gli insediamenti che Sharon ora vuole smantellare, gli insediamenti in cui lo 0,5% degli abitanti si gode il 42% della terra nella striscia di Gaza; gli anacronistici insediamenti che i guardiani del confine sono chiamati a difendere.
.. Ci si sporge sul nulla della distruzione che dal Muro invade giorno dopo giorno, metro dopo metro, il cuore della città. .. Lo chiamano "il terremoto in scala Sharon" e qui ha colpito tutto e tutti: Faiga Zannun, per esempio, signora cinquantenne che passa le giornate ritta in piedi all'angolo di una casa che non c'è più. "Sono venuti di notte, non ho potuto salvare nulla. Ora vivo in un magazzino." Nell'isolato accanto Yussef Abu Ziada, settantenne con i modi da principe: ".. Sono venuti di notte e hanno distrutto tutto. Uno dei miei figli è rimasto sotto le macerie, ora è in ospedale paralizzato". .. Sameer Hnef: ".. Si sono fatti largo partendo dal muro, hanno già demolito quattro file di case, io abito nella quinta. Sparano sempre, e io non capisco più nulla: ogni tanto mi guardo in giro e non ricordo più perchè sono rimasto così solo, dove sono andati a finire tutti i miei vicini".
.. I militari israeliani dicono di demolire le case per scovare i tunnel del contrabbando di armi tra l'Egitto e la striscia di Gaza: il 10 ottobre 2003 hanno spianato 170 case per trovare due tunnel e nessuna traccia di armi. .. Chi ha ancora voglia di ragionare sostiene che si tratta di creare una zona cuscinetto tra il muro e i palestinesi, chi si lascia prendere dalla disperazione dice semplicemente: "Vogliono tutto. E se lo prendono."
.. A Rafah si continua a vivere di paura: come i novanta bambini impauriti dell'orfanotrofio "Tal Al Sultan". .. Sulla parete più esposta il cronista conta 50 buchi di proiettili e poi smette di contare. Anche chi non sia esperto di calibri capisce che qui ne mancano pochi: grandi, piccoli, enormi.
.. Perchè a Rafah è stato costruito un secondo muro, sono state distrutte 920 case, uccisi 191 civili? Al Corriere della Sera Avi Pazner, portavoce del governo Sharon, ha dichiarato che "in tre anni di intifada da Gaza non è mai uscito un terrorista che sia riuscito a colpire Israele". E allora perchè? Per difendere gli insediamenti. .. In una lotta che costa la casa e la vita ai palestinesi. ..
THE TRUTH ABOUT THE TALMUD
from "Judaism's Strange Gods" by Michael A. Hoffman of Independent History & Research, Box 849, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
The Talmud is Judaism's holiest book (actually a collection of books). Its authority takes precedence over the Old Testament in Judaism. [See] in the Talmud itself, Erubin 21b (Soncino edition). .. Ethiopian Jews' .. religion is so ancient it pre-dates the Scribes' Talmud, of which the Ethiopians have no knowledge. .. Because they are not traffickers in Talmudic tradition, the black Ethiopian Jews are discriminated against and have been forbidden by the Zionists to perform marriages, funerals and other services in the Israeli state.
.. The Jewish Scribes claim the Talmud is partly a collection of traditions Moses gave them in oral form. These had not yet been written down in Jesus' time. Christ condemned the traditions of the Mishnah (early Talmud) and those who taught it (Scribes and Pharisees), because the Talmud nullifies the teachings of the Holy Bible.
.. Unfortunately, due to the abysmal ignorance of our day, the widespread "Judeo-Christian" notion is that the Old Testament is the supreme book of Judaism. But this is not so. The Pharisees teach for doctrine the commandments of rabbis, not God. [Just like Catholics do with Jesus' teachings, ndJB]
.. There is a tiny Jewish sect which makes considerable effort to eschew Talmud and adhere to the Old Testament alone. These are the Karaites, a group which, historically, has been most hated and severely persecuted by orthodox Jewish rabbinate.
To the Mishnah the rabbis later added the Gemara (rabbinical commentaries). Together these comprise the Talmud. There are two versions, the Jerusalem Talmud and the Babylonian Talmud.
.. "The authority of the Babylonian Talmud is also greater than that of the Jerusalem Talmud. In cases of doubt the former is decisive." (R.C. Musaph-Andriesse, From Torah to Kabbalah: A Basic Introduction to the Writings of Judaism, p. 40).
This study is based on the Jewish-authorized Babylonian Talmud. We have published herein the authenticated sayings of the Jewish Talmud. Look them up for yourself.
.. The implementation by Jewish supremacists of Talmudic hate literature has caused untold suffering throughout history and now, in occupied Palestine, it is used as a justification for the mass murder of Palestinian civilians. The Talmud specifically defines all who are not Jews as non-human animals.
.. While it is the standard disinformation practice of apologists for the Talmud to deny that it contains any scurrilous references to Jesus Christ, certain Orthodox Jewish organizations are more forthcoming and admit that the Talmud not only mentions Jesus but disparages him (as a sorcerer and a demented sex freak).
.. Shabbath 116a. Jews must destroy the books of the Christians, i.e. the New Testament.
Dr. Israel Shahak of Hebrew University reports that the Israelis burned hundreds of New Testament Bibles in occupied Palestine on March 23, 1980 (cf. Jewish History, Jewish Religion, p. 21).
.. Sanhedrin 55b. A Jew may marry a three year old girl (specifically, three years "and a day" old). [However, this and the following ones, might be esoteric metaphores - which aren't supposed to be taken literally. ndJB]
Sanhedrin 54b. A Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old.
Kethuboth 11b. "When a grown-up man has intercourse with a little girl it is nothing."
Yebamoth 59b. A woman who had intercourse with a beast is eligible to marry a Jewish priest. A woman who has sex with a demon is also eligible to marry a Jewish priest.
.. Baba Mezia 59b. A rabbi debates God and defeats Him. God admits the rabbi won the debate.
.. Menahoth 43b-44a. A Jewish man is obligated to say the following prayer every day: Thank you God for not making me a gentile, a woman or a slave.
.. Here are two early "Holocaust" tales from the Talmud: Gittin 57b. Claims that four billion Jews were killed by the Romans in the city of Bethar. Gittin 58a claims that 16 million Jewish children were wrapped in scrolls and burned alive by the Romans. (Ancient demography indicates that there were not 16 million Jews in the entire world at that time, much less 16 million Jewish children or four billion Jews).
.. Minor Tractates. Soferim 15, Rule 10. This is the saying of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai: Tob shebe goyyim harog ("Even the best of the gentiles should all be killed").
This passage is from the original Hebrew of the Babylonian Talmud as quoted by the 1907 Jewish Encyclopedia, published by Funk and Wagnalls and compiled by Isidore Singer, under the entry, "Gentile," (p. 617).
This original Talmud passage has been concealed in translation. The Jewish Encyclopedia states that, "...in the various versions the reading has been altered, 'The best among the Egyptians' being generally substituted." In the Soncino version: "the best of the heathens" (Minor Tractates, Soferim 41a-b].
.. The late Brooklyn Rabbi Meir Kahane .. told CBS News that his teaching that Arabs are "dogs" is derived "from the Talmud." (CBS 60 Minutes, "Kahane").
University of Jerusalem Prof. Ehud Sprinzak described Kahane and Goldstein's philosophy: "They believe it's God's will that they commit violence against goyim, a Hebrew term for non-Jews." (NY Daily News, Feb. 26, 1994, p. 5).
Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburg declared, "We have to recognize that Jewish blood and the blood of a goy are not the same thing." (NY Times, June 6, 1989, p.5).
Rabbi Yaacov Perrin said, "One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail." (NY Daily News, Feb. 28, 1994, p.6).
.. The Talmud specifically defines all who are not Jews as non-human animals, and specifically dehumanizes Gentiles as not being descendants of Adam. Here are some of the Talmud passages which relate to this topic.
.. [Ezekiel 34:31]: Ye are called man (Adam) but gentiles (goyim) are not called man (Adam)."
Ezekiel 34:31 is the alleged Biblical proof text repeatedly cited in the preceding three Talmud passages. But Ezekiel 34:31 does not in fact support the Talmudic notion that only Israelites are human. What these rabbinical, anti-Gentile racists and ideologues have done in asserting the preceding absurdities about Gentiles is distort an Old Testament passage in order to justify their bigotry. In Berakoth 58a the Talmud .. teaches that anyone (even a Jewish man) who reveals this Talmudic teaching about non-Jews deserves death, since revealing it makes Gentiles wrathful and causes the repression of Judaism.
.. The Old Testament Mosaic law states that touching a human corpse or the grave of a human imparts uncleanness to those who touch it. But the Talmud teaches that if a Jew touches the grave of a Gentile, the Jew is not rendered unclean, since Gentiles are not human (not of Adam). [Yebamoth 61a]
.. "Moses Maimonides is considered the greatest codifier and philosopher in Jewish history." [Quoting] Maimonides, "Mishnah Torah", Moznaim Publishing Corporation, Brooklyn, New York, 1990, Chapter 10, English Translation, p. 184: "Accordingly, if we see an idolater (gentile) being swept away or drowning in the river, we should not help him. If we see that his life is in danger, we should not save him." The Hebrew text of the Feldheim 1981 edition of Mishnah Torah states this as well.
.. Maimonides taught in another part of the Mishnah Torah that gentiles are not human: "Man alone, and not vessels, can contract uncleanness by carriage. ...The corpse of a gentile, however, does not convey uncleanness by overshadowing. ...a gentile does not contract corpse uncleanness; and if a gentile touches, carries, or overshadows a corpse he is as one who did not touch it.
"To what is this like? It is like a beast which touches a corpse or overshadows it. And this applies not to corpse uncleanness only but to any other kind of uncleanness: neither gentiles nor cattle are susceptible to any uncleanness." (The Code of Maimonides, vol. 10, translated by Herbert Danby, Yale University Press, New Haven, 1954, pp. 8-9).
Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Rotze'ach 2:11: "A Jew who killed a righteous gentile is not executed in a court of law. It says in Exodus 21:14, 'If a man schemes against his fellow man and kills the man deliberately, take him away from the altar and put him to death.' But a gentile is not considered a man, and even more so, a Jew is not executed for killing an unrighteous gentile."
.. In 1994, Rabbi Tzvi Marx, director of Applied Education at the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, made a remarkable admission concerning how Jewish rabbis in the past have issued two sets of texts: the authentic Talmudic texts with which they instruct their own youth in the Talmud schools (yeshiviot) and "censured and amended" versions which they disseminate to gullible non-Jews for public consumption.
Rabbi Marx states that in the version of Maimonides' teachings published for public consumption, Maimonides is made to say that whoever kills a human being transgresses the law.
But, Rabbi Marx points out "...this only reflects the censured and amended printed text, whereas the original manuscripts have it only as 'whoever kills an Israelite."(Tikkun: A Bi-Monthly Jewish Critique May-June, 1994).
The Jewish book, Hesronot Ha-shas ("that which is removed from the Talmud"), is important in this regard. (Cf. William Popper, The Censorship of Hebrew Books p. 59).
Hesronot Ha-shas was reprinted in 1989 by Sinai Publishing of Tel-Aviv. Hesronot Ha-shas is valuable because it lists both the original Talmud texts that were later changed or omitted, and the falsified texts cited for Gentile consumption as authentic.
Historian William Popper states: "It was not always that long passages...were censored...but often single words alone were omitted...Often, in these cases, another method of correction was used in place of omission--substitution." (Cf. William Popper, The Censorship of Hebrew Books pp. 58-59).
For example, the translators of the English Soncino version of the Talmud sometimes render the Hebrew word goyim (Gentiles) under any number of disguise words such as "heathen, Cuthean, Kushite, Egyptian, idolater" etc. But these are actually references to Gentiles (all non-Jews). Footnotes for certain passages in the Soncino Talmud translation state: "Cuthean (Samaritan) was here substituted for the original goy..."
.. In 1994, the 80 year old Lady Jane Birdwood was arrested and prosecuted in a criminal court in London, England for the "crime" of publishing in her pamphlet, The Longest Hatred, the truthful statement that the Talmud contains anti-Gentile and anti-Christian passages. (She was accused of violating the Public Order Act of 1986).
In the course of her Orwellian thought-crime trial, which was ignored by the U.S. media, a rabbi was called as a prosecution witness. The rabbi proceeded to flatly deny that the Talmud contained anti-Gentile or anti-Christian passages and on the basis of the rabbi's "prestige," this elderly and ailing woman was sentenced to three months in jail and fined the equivalent of $1,000.
.. "Medieval Jewish theologians .. sought to define the Jewish distinction racially rather than spiritually, [stating that] there is something innately superior about the Jews. .. The founder of Lubavitcher Hasidism taught that there is a difference of essence between the souls of Jews and the souls of gentiles, that only in the Jewish soul does there reside a spark of divine vitality.
"As for the goyim...Zalman's attitude (was): 'Gentile souls are of a completely different and inferior order. They are totally evil, with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.'
".. Non-Jews' material abundance derives from supernal refuse. Indeed, they themselves derive from refuse, which is why they are more numerous than the Jews, as the pieces of chaff outnumber the kernels...All Jews were innately good, all gentiles innately evil.
.. Under the Talmud's counterfeit Noahide Laws, the worship of Jesus is forbidden under penalty of death, since such worship of Christ is condemned by Judaism as idolatry. Meanwhile various forms of incest are permitted under the Talmudic understanding of the Noahide code. (Enziklopediya Talmudit, note 1, pp. 351-352).
Furthermore, all non-Jews would have the legal status of ger toshav ("resident alien," cf. Alan Unterman, Dictionary of Jewish Lore and Legend [London: Thames and Hudson, 1991], p. 148), even in their own land; as for example in occupied Palestine where newly arrived Khazars from Russia have an automatic right to housing and citizenship, while two million Palestinian refugees who either fled or were expelled by the Israelis, are forbidden the right of return.
.. Hebrew University Professor Mordechai Nisan .. stated that a non-Jew permitted to reside in a land ruled by Jewish law "must accept paying a tax and suffering the humiliation of servitude."
If Gentiles refuse to live a life of inferiority, then this signals their rebellion and the unavoidable necessity of Jewish warfare against their very presence. [Cf. Mordechai Nisan, Kivunim (official publication of the World Zionist Organization), August, 1984, pp. 151-156].
"The Torah maintains that .. not all religious Gentiles earn eternal life by virtue of observing their religion...And while the Christians do generally accept the Hebrew Bible as truly from God, many of them (those who accept the so-called divinity of Jesus) are idolaters according to the Torah, punishable by death, and certainly will not enjoy the World to Come." (Israeli Mechon-Mamre website, June 26, 2000)
PETROLIO IN ISRAELE
di Kaye Corbett, WorldNet Daily, 1998
IRVING, TX - Secondo un rispettato petroliere texano, Harold "Hayseed" Stephens, inizierà probabilmente nei principi del 1999 [così non è stato, almeno fino ad oggi] il progetto di $30 milioni, che durerà dai 6 agli 8 mesi, per portare alla luce il più grande giacimento di petrolio del mondo che si trova sotto un blocco di sale nel sudovest del Mar Morto israeliano.
Fino ad ora, i nemici islamici di Israele hanno posseduto quasi il 75% delle riserve mondiali di petrolio. [Le] nazioni islamiche come l'Arabia Saudita, tutte nemiche giurate del minuscolo stato israeliano, ne hanno miliardi di barili mentre Israele ha abbastanza petrolio da soddisfare il fabbisogno di un giorno e mezzo, e per il restante dipende da altri paesi.
.. Oltre ad essere un petroliere, Stephens è un ministro e ha detto che le perforazioni di Elohim Parezim n. 1 (che significa "Signore delle breccie") nell'area del Mar Morto possono significare "lo sconvolgimento dell'intero sistema geopolitico".
Il contratto è stato soprannominato Hesed, che significa "l'Iddio che mantiene il patto fino alla millesima generazione", e parte della licenza si chiama Ness Carveout, dal nome della compagnia texana Ness Energy (in ebraico Ness significa "miracolo"). "Dio aveva architettato tutto", ha spiegato Stephens; .. ha detto inoltre che lo Spirito Santo gli ha consigliato di aspettare e lasciare che gli ufficiali petroliferi israeliani vengano nel Texas occidentale.
.. Un'incredibile prova geologica e geofisica ha portato alla stipulazione di un contratto fra la Compagnia Petrolifera Israeliana e la compagnia "cristiana" di Stephens, la Ness Energy International.
Si crede che ci sia una così grande quantità di petrolio nella regione del Mar Morto, da rendere la nazione indipendente da risorse estere.
.. Oltre che agli studi geologici, Stephens si è affidato molto alle Scritture e alle parole profetiche, per le recenti esplorazioni petrolifere.
Il Mar Morto, conosciuto una volta come Valle di Siddim, era un tempo una regione meravigliosa e lussureggiante, piena di pozzi di petrolio, secondo Genesi 13:10-11 e 14:10, e Gerico era il suo maggiore centro di commercio.
Poi venne la drammatica distruzione di Sodoma e Gomorra e la formazione del Mar Morto (Genesi 19:24-25, 28-29).
La traduzione ebraica di Isaia 45:3 dice: .. "Ti aprirò (termine texano: ti stapperò) depositi (petroliferi) che sono nascosti in serbatoi sotterranei (petroliferi) affinché tu riconosca che io sono l'Eterno il Dio d'Israele che ti chiama per nome". Stephens dice che si dovrebbe notare che in Isaia 45 Dio sta parlando ad un gentile, il re Ciro. Ha spiegato inoltre che in Isaia 60:5, "perché l'abbondanza del mare confluirà a te, la ricchezza delle nazioni verrà a te" significa che parte dei profitti del giacimento di petrolio saranno impiegati per la ricostruzione del Terzo Tempio in Gerusalemme.
Nel 1993, secondo Stephens, più di 100 terremoti in sette giorni hanno spostato l'area dal Monte Carmel fino al Mar Rosso, ridistribuendo l'enorme giacimento sepolto dai giorni di Lot.
Quando furono distrutte Sodoma e Gomorra, la parte sudoccidentale del Mar Morto fu trasformata in una montagna di sale, lunga 9 miglia, larga 3/4 di miglio e profonda 18.000 piedi. Il sale ha agito come conservante negli ultimi 4000 anni, e non ha permesso al petrolio di fuoriuscire.
.. Ha spiegato Stephens: "in Genesi 19, Dio ha incendiato tutto il petrolio e il gas di quella valle e poi vi ha fatto piovere sopra scavando un buco lungo 40 miglia, largo 8 miglia e profondo 3 miglia."
.. Importanti petrolieri cristiani hanno fatto perforare in luoghi specifici basandosi sulle informazioni fornite da versi scritturali.
.. Dopo che un tragico incidente automobilistico insieme alla sua famiglia gli ha stroncato la carriera negli ora defunti Titans, Stephens è ritornato in Texas per cercare fortuna nel campo petrolifero, dandosi anche alla bella vita sfarzosa di di Las Vegas. Nel gennaio del 1978 Hayseed, che aveva "festeggiato" per alcuni giorni, ebbe un'esperienza simile a quella dell'apostolo Paolo sulla strada di Damasco. .. Stephens si sentì guidato dal Signore nel dare a Begin [l'allora Primo Ministro Israeliano] un grande cappello texano bianco. .. Due ore dopo, il Signore parlò a Stephens, dicendogli che "il più grande giacimento di petrolio del mondo" si trovava sottoterra, nella parte sudorientale del Mar Morto.

ISRAEL OIL IN PROPHECY
JB's summarization of Ness Energy's website (updated January 27, 2003)
The story so far - Who is mr.Stephens - Bible prophecies - What our stockholders are saying - The videos
«NESS ENERGY INTERNATIONAL, INC. was formed for the purpose of drilling for oil in Israel and Texas to distribute God's SUPERNATURAL WEALTH to God's end-time ministries. Israel, .. the land where God .. brought forth water from a rock, is still the land of miracles!» [1]
«Even the very name announces the forthcoming miracle, because "Ness" in Hebrew means "miracle". Ness has already begun to flow and will bring supernatural wealth to those who believe. .. A business where God is Chairman of the Board and His agape love is the Order of Business.» [2]
«God never, ever, ever created one barrel of oil, one gold nugget, one ounce of silver, or one ounce of platinum for the devil. .. He created for God's people so that God's people could take the Gospel throughout the world. .. We not supposed to be poor. We supposed to be rich!...in things, stuff, resources so that we can take the Gospel throughout the world.» (Hayseed)
THE STORY SO FAR [3]
.. In 1982 while on a business trip to Israel, Hayseed Stephens states he had a God-given revelation that the richest oil field in the world is at the southwest end of the Dead Sea. .. In the days of Sodom and Gomorrah the area where the Dead Sea is was called the Valley of Siddim. Throughout that region there were numerous oil pockets or wells that were at ground level which is a proven fact both historically and biblically. This commodity was brought to trading centers such as Jericho, where it was bartered for other goods. .. The Bible says that during conflicts, many men fell into these wells or pits and literally drowned in oil.
.. What was it that could have caused an explosion so great that it would have blown billions of tons of rock and dirt (oil saturated strata) skyward, leaving a hole 8 mi. wide, 40 mi. long and 18,000 ft deep? The likely answer was the ignition of a huge quantity of underground methane gas and oil. This explosion formed the Dead Sea, which up until that time was where Sodom, Gomorrah and the Valley of Siddim were located (geologically proven in 1992). GENESIS 19:24, 25A, 28-29 states, "The Lord rained (exploded) on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire (sulfur and flaming rock filled with oil) from the Lord out of the heavens.....He overthrew, destroyed, and ended these cities.....and he (Abraham) looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward ALL the land of the VALLEY (Siddim), and saw and beheld the smoke of the COUNTRY went up like the smoke of a FURNACE." Where exactly were Sodom and Gomorrah located before they were destroyed? At the southwestern and southern end of the Dead Sea!!!
.. From Jordan on the eastern edge of the Dead Sea going west off this tectonic plate rift .. that runs along the eastern edge of the Dead Sea, .. there is an incredible 30,000-ft displacement. This is where Mr. Stephens believes the oil has been coming up through the Earth’s mantle for thousands of years. He is convinced it has been turned away from Israel due to the salt cap that is sitting on top of it and sealing it until God is ready to let it flow.
.. The scriptures point out that a Gentile will discover the oil in Israel, not a Jew (ISAIAH 60:5 Amp.). Who more likely to discover Israel’s oil than a full-time Christian Preacher who just happens to be head of his own oil company and is now going to be drilling for the oil God has been saving for Israel. The Israelis are fully aware that there is a large quantity of oil under their land and that a Gentile will discover it for them as King Cyrus of Persia (a Gentile) was promised approximately 2500 years ago.
In 1986 and 1994 pictures were taken of Hayseed standing over his "Elohim Perazim #1" drill site. On the first picture, the huge rock cliffs behind him show an image of a massive God-like being sitting on a throne. On the second picture taken eight years later, the same rock cliffs show an image of Jesus Christ hanging on the cross. Copies of these two pictures are planned for the front and back covers of NESS Energy’s Prospectus.
NESS means "Miracle" in Hebrew and Israel is way past due for a miracle. Elohim Perazim #1 is the name of the primary well that will be drilled by NESS Energy, this name in Hebrew means, "Lord of the Breakthrough."
.. Over 3,000 years ago when King Solomon was building the great Temple of Jerusalem, God guided a multitude of "craftsmen skilled in their trades" to him so the project could be completed. Similarly, men with the unusual knowledge and skill of drilling 30,000+ ft wells have been guided from the oil fields around Oklahoma and Texas and are now becoming part of the NESS Energy Team.
.. Throughout recorded history [salt] has many times trapped large quantities of oil in various places of the world. Current satellite imagery shows a huge oval shaped salt deposit over 9 miles long, ¾ miles wide and estimated at 18,000 ft deep (protruding 600 ft. out of the surface) at the southwest end of the Dead Sea. When Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed, the heat burned off the salt and sulfur, sealing (GENESIS 19:28) and trapping until now, the oil that has always been meant for Israel.
.. The obvious question that most skeptics have is, "Even if the oil is discovered how will it be transported to market economically since the Dead Sea is landlocked?" This is a very good question, but you see God has weaved a supernatural chain of events and provided a high-tech solution to the upcoming deluge of Israeli oil and its requirement to be moved rapidly to the markets of the world. God used one of Israel’s longtime enemies to both finance and build the project. In the early 1970’s, there was a long-standing feud between the Shah of Iran and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat causing Egypt to slam the door on any attempts by Iran to use the Suez Canal for the transport of their oil to the Mediterranean Sea. Seeking a solution to this dilemma, the Shah asked Israel if Iran could build a 42" above ground pipeline from Eilat (at the end of the Gulf of Aqaba) through Israel’s Negev Desert to Ashqelon on the Mediterranean. Israel agreed to its construction and after two years this sophisticated two billion-dollar project was finished with elaborate pumping stations and state-of-the-art technology throughout. Unfortunately for Iran, on the same week that it was completed, the Shah was deposed and sent into exile by Ayatollah Khomeini and this awesome system was closed up, sealed, and to this day, not a single drop of oil has ever gone through it. Currently, it is sitting quietly in the Israeli sun gleaming brightly and patiently waiting for the miracle soon to come. Hayseed’s drill site is approximately 25 miles east of the pipeline’s halfway point. It will be quick work once God lets the oil flow to connect into this system and then 84 inches of pipeline (42 north to the Mediterranean, and 42 south to the Red Sea (36 inches larger than the great Alaskan pipeline )) will supply Israeli oil to the entire world. Now if that doesn’t make your skin crawl then rigor mortis must have set in. Another of the many incredible examples of how the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is very much in control of the affairs of men !!! [:-p ndJB]
.. At the first Pentecost the "Fire" of the Holy Spirit burned into men’s hearts the desire and supernatural ability to speak many tongues in order to spread God’s Word and the good news of Jesus Christ around the globe. The discovery of this "Oil of the Holy Spirit" will turn the hearts of hundreds of millions of men and women back to the Father and to his Son Jesus, as television crews broadcast this miraculous supernatural event to every corner of the Earth. What more likely way could you imagine God delivering Israel from economic bondage while providing them with a commodity that they absolutely must have, while supplying the means to finance the spread of Christianity throughout the entire world. The wealth that is generated will enable the fulfillment of MATTEW 24:14 which says, "And this gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come" (this does not mean the end of the world, just the end of the age and the start of Jesus’ Kingdom on Earth). I believe Pentecost is very likely the feast day that God the Father has reserved for this "Earth Shaking Miracle."
.. From the beginning of time, God has planned for someone very special to be born, grow and develop with the right skills, conviction and drive so as to arrive on the scene at this specific moment in history. Forging him in the furnace of disappointment, hardship, and adversity, God refined him by fire to strengthen his medal and build in him the unshakable faith that it would take to complete this impossible task. I’ve never known anyone who for 19 years would have trudged forward into the non-stop driving winds and rain of rejection while overcoming the countless obstacles and risk his own health to complete an unselfish goal that was always so far away. When he’s finally standing alone on the summit of the mountain that no one else had the courage, perseverance or belief to climb, he’ll do something I am certain very few men on Earth would ever do. The trophy and prize money that he poured his entire being into earning will, out of Christian love for others, be given back to the rightful owners, the Jewish people, and the Nation of Israel. .. Moses’ arrival was choreographed in order for him to deliver Israel from both physical and economic bondage at just the right time. Similarly, it is my personal opinion that Hayseed Stephens has been inserted into this exact right moment in time so that God can work an incredible miracle "through" him and permanently end Israel’s dependence on foreign oil. [I can hardly believe it: he is ACTUALLY equiparing Moses, who came to free God's people from slavery, to an oil-tycoon who's gonna make'em rich?! ndJB] Most importantly, this discovery will start the chain reaction of events that will usher in the return of His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
.. A Jewish Geologist by the name of Lewis Franklin, who at various times in his career worked for British Petroleum and Phillips Petroleum, .. in the 1940’s .. was tasked with determining where the next giant or super giant oil field would be found in the Middle East region. His analysis led him to the same conclusion as was revealed to Mr. Stephens. There is the potential for a super giant oil field in at the southwest end of the Dead Sea. As Israel's boundaries were being established in the late 1940s, Mr. Franklin emplored Golda Mier, who was then Israel's Minister of Labor and Infrastructure, to make sure the southeastern border with Jordan went no further west than was being planned. Mr. Franklin knew that someday a giant oil field could potentially be discovered there and his advice helped ensure there would be no doubt Israel owned this land. ..
ISAIAH 45:3 states, "I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places so that you will know that I am thy Lord the God who called you by name." This verse in the original HEBREW then translated states; "I will shoot (gush up) to you (oil) deposits that are stored in valuable dungeon-type containers (oil traps), so that you will know that I am thy Lord the God who called you by name." Hayseed plans on letting this well gush up and run for 48 hours straight before capping it. He’ll do this so every major news organization around the globe can televise it proving to the entire secular world that when God makes a promise, you can count on him keeping it.
.. Currently, China is building a super-highway through Tibet, Pakistan and Afghanistan that has questionable commercial value that is headed directly to Israel. Did you also know that most scoffers said that China would never be able to cross the Euphrates River Valley to get to Israel because of the shear enormity of that river? Well the scoffers are wrong!!! In 1994 Turkey completed the Ataturk Dam which as REVELATION 16:12 says, will allow the Kings of the East to cross the Euphrates River Valley so that they can proceed to the Valley of Megiddo.
.. So why am I convinced that Hayseed Stephens and NESS Energy will discover the oil that God has been saving for Israel? I don’t believe that God will allow just anyone to find this oil field!!! I absolutely know that it won’t be a secular multinational oil company so that they can line their pockets with the profits that were meant for Israel. .. Hayseed .. has spent nearly 20 years of his life including 100 trips to Israel, in the relentless pursuit of a dream that is about to come true. .. God’s fingerprints can be seen all over this project, the Master Architect is looking over Hayseed Stephens’ shoulders giving direction so that His Heavenly timetable is kept. [And] Equal Distance Letter Sequence Codes in the Bible say his company will discover Israel’s oil. ..
["However",] «there is no projected drilling date at this time.» [4]
WHO IS MR.STEPHENS [5]
.. In 1958, Hayseed began working at the lowest level of labor in the oilfield, and now owns Hayseed Stephens Oil, Inc. and an international oil company by the name of Ness Energy International, Inc. .. In 1982, Hayseed received a prophetic call from God. Prime Minister Menachem Begin said to him, "Maybe you should be the one to come find oil for us in Israel." Two hours later, God supernaturally showed Hayseed that "the potentially greatest oilfield in the world is located at the southwest end of the Dead Sea in Israel!" Hayseed has studied the Bible and confirmed this revelation in 1982, through scripture and his oilman’s training. He has waited for the vision to come to pass for 15 years and 52 trips to Israel. Now, using science such as geology and seismic data, and the leading of God, and with the cooperation of Israel’s national oil company, this geological, seismic, and geophysical information confirms that what the Lord spoke to Hayseed in 1982 is TRUE! Ezekiel 36-39 clearly reveals that this is the season for the discovery to show the world God’s love for Israel, His chosen people.
Hayseed Stephens was born to preach, although a few years ago that idea would have brought guffaws from everyone who knew him. No one argues with it now though, because the anointing on Hayseed’s preaching turns lives inside out. .. When he talks about the power of God, people scoot up on the edge of their chairs and believe every word. That’s because when he’s talking, the power of God is there in the room, and everyone senses that miracles are only a breath away. ..
