Yesterday, Seraphic Secret noted that Israel’s Yom Hazikaron, Day of Remembrance, in which two minutes of silence prevail across the country in memory of those who have fallen in defense of the Jewish state, is, in fact, not just about the past, but the present and the future.
The enemies of Israel are the enemies of the Judaism, and this is a hatred that never sleeps.
We Jews are engaged in an eternal war.
The enemy are Assyrian, Babylonian, Roman; genocidal Communist and Nazi regimes rise and fall only to be replaced by genocidal Muslims.
America was founded by Christians seeking religious liberty. These early Americans so closely identified with the Children of Israel’s flight from Egypt they considered making Hebrew the national language.
It should come as no surprise that our founders inscribed a verse, not from the Christian bible, but from the Torah (Leviticus chapter 25, verse 10) on the Liberty Bell:
“PROCLAIM LIBERTY THROUGHOUT ALL THE LAND UNTO ALL THE INHABITANTS THEREOF.”
Those who hate Israel and Judaism, also hate America and Christianity. The Islamic terror that plagues the land of Israel will also come to these shores with increasing frequency.
Ariel Chaim Avrech, ZT'L, May His Righteous Memory be a Blessing.
