Caption transcript for “United for Jerusalem”

  • 00:16 BRETHREN, MY HEART'S DESIRE AND PRAYER TO GOD FOR ISRAEL IS THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED,
  • 00:24 FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE JEW AND THE GREEK
  • 00:27 FOR THE SAME LORD OVER ALL IS RICH UNTO ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM.
  • 00:39 WITH DR. JEFFREY SEIF
  • 00:44 HEARTY SHALOM TO ALL OF YOU.
  • 00:45 JEFFREY SEIF HERE
  • 00:47 AND I AM PLEASED TO WELCOME YOU AGAIN
  • 00:49 TO ZOLA LEVITT PRESENTS.
  • 00:52 WE HAVE SOME REALLY INTERESTING STUFF TO PRESENT I MIGHT ADD.
  • 00:57 A LOT OF TIMES I'LL CLIMB AROUND THE PAGES OF BIBLICAL LITERATURE
  • 01:01 CLIMB AROUND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES IN ISRAEL,
  • 01:04 BUT HERE WE'RE CLIMBING AROUND THE NEWS.
  • 01:07 THE LORD GRACED US WITH FASCINATING INTERVIEWS.
  • 01:11 DANNY AYALON IS THE FORMER ISRAELI AMBASSADOR TO THE UNITED NATIONS
  • 01:18 AND NOW THE DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER.
  • 01:22 THOSE OF YOU CURIOUS HOW MODERN ISRAEL LOOKS AT THE WORLD
  • 01:26 AND LOOKS AT THE WAY THE WORLD LOOKS AT ISRAEL...
  • 01:29 WELL FOR THOSE OF YOU INTERESTED IN THAT
  • 01:31 HAVE A LOOK AT THIS
  • 01:33 AS WE HEAR FROM THIS FORMER AMBASSADOR
  • 01:36 THIS DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER OF THE NATION STATE OF ISRAEL.
  • 01:50 PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU SIR.
  • 01:51 CAN YOU GIVE US SOME PERSPECTIVE
  • 01:53 ON WHERE ISRAEL STANDS IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE REST OF THIS WORLD?
  • 01:57 WELL ISRAEL IS PART OF SIMILAR CIVILIZATIONS.
  • 02:00 CIVILIZATIONS STARTED WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE ACTUALLY
  • 02:03 SO WE ARE PART OF THE CIVILIZED INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY
  • 02:07 AND YOU CAN SEE IT WHEN IT COMES TO A DECISION AGAINST IRAN,
  • 02:14 ISRAEL FOLLOWS THE LEAD OF THE UNITED STATES
  • 02:17 AND THE OTHER POWERS INTERNATIONALLY
  • 02:19 AND YOU SEE IT ON THE WAR OF TERRORISM.
  • 02:23 AND THE FACT THAT WE HAVE BEEN ATTACKED
  • 02:26 AND WE ARE STILL UNDER ATTACK
  • 02:28 FROM ALL THESE EXTREME ISLAMIST TERROR ORGANIZATIONS
  • 02:31 WHETHER IT'S FROM LEBANON LIKE THE HEZBOLLAH
  • 02:34 OR HAMAS FROM GAZA
  • 02:36 IS BECAUSE TO THEM WE ARE PART OF THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY
  • 02:43 OF WESTERN CIVILIZATIONS WHICH THEY ABHOR
  • 02:46 AND UNFORTUNATELY FOR THIS PEOPLE
  • 02:49 THE AYATOLLAHS IN TEHRAN AND THEIR PROXIES
  • 02:51 WHERE THERE IS THE HEZBOLLAH IN LEBANON
  • 02:53 OR IN HAMAS, ISLAM AND JIHAD
  • 02:55 AND IN MANY PALESTINIAN TERROR ORGANIZATIONS...
  • 02:58 FOR THEM IT'S A ZERO SUM GAME.
  • 03:03 THERE IS NO CO-EXISTENCE,
  • 03:05 THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE,
  • 03:06 THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN TOLERANCE
  • 03:08 AND THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE UP AGAINST HERE.
  • 03:10 AND HERE IN ISRAEL OF COURSE WE APPRECIATE VERY MUCH
  • 03:13 THE LEADERSHIP OF THE UNITED STATES,
  • 03:16 THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHICH ARE IN MY MIND
  • 03:19 THE MOST DECENT, THE MOST COURAGEOUS IN THE WORLD.
  • 03:23 THEY ARE THE ONES WHO COULD STAND AND ACTUALLY DID STAND
  • 03:28 AGAINST WORLD INJUSTICE
  • 03:31 WHETHER IT WAS NAZISM
  • 03:32 OR WHETHER IT WAS IN COMMUNISM
  • 03:34 AND NOW TERRORISM.
  • 03:37 AND WE ARE PROUD TO BE THE UNITED STATES BEST FRIEND
  • 03:41 AND ALLY HERE IN THIS REGION AND I BELIEVE BEYOND.
  • 03:44 I'M PUZZLED WHY...
  • 03:46 IT DEFIES REASON THAT PEOPLE JUST WANT TO BE HELL BENT
  • 03:49 ON CASTIGATING JEWS AND ISRAEL...
  • 03:52 BECAUSE THERE'S SUCH A STRONG...
  • 03:54 I MEAN THERE'S ANOTHER SIDE TO THE STORY.
  • 03:57 WHY DOESN'T THE WORLD WANT TO HEAR IT?
  • 03:59 OR WHY DON'T PEOPLE WANT TO TELL IT?
  • 04:01 DO YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF THAT?
  • 04:02 IT CONFUSES ME.
  • 04:05 WELL FIRST OF ALL I WOULD SAY
  • 04:07 IT IS BECAUSE THESE AUTOMATIC MAJORITIES
  • 04:10 THAT THE ARABS AND ISLAMIC COUNTRIES AND NON-DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES HAVE...
  • 04:15 LOOK THERE ARE 22 ARAB COUNTRIES WHICH ARE VOTING AS ONE BLOCK.
  • 04:21 THESE 22 ARAB COUNTRIES, THE ARAB LEAGUE COUNTRIES
  • 04:24 ARE A PART OF A LARGER GROUP CALLED THE OIC,
  • 04:29 ORGANIZATION OF ISLAMIC STATES,
  • 04:31 WHICH HAS 57...
  • 04:32 SO ALREADY YOU HAVE 57 VOTES AGAINST ISRAEL
  • 04:36 OR AGAINST THE UNITED STATES
  • 04:38 OR EUROPE FOR THAT MATTER.
  • 04:39 THIS 57 ARE YET PART OF THE LARGER GROUP
  • 04:43 THAT USED TO BE CALLED "THE GROUP OF 77"
  • 04:46 OR "THE NON-ALIGNED".
  • 04:47 NOW THERE ARE 118 COUNTRIES IN THIS GROUP.
  • 04:50 SO ALREADY YOU HAVE AN AUTOMATIC MAJORITY...
  • 04:53 118 COUNTRIES OUT OF TOTAL OF 192 MEMBER STATES IN THE UNITED NATIONS.
  • 05:00 YOU HAVE ALREADY AN AUTOMATIC MAJORITY
  • 05:02 AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT IF THEY DECIDED TODAY
  • 05:05 TO PASS A RESOLUTION THAT THE EARTH IS FLAT
  • 05:08 THEY WILL SUCCEED.
  • 05:10 NOW WHY DO THEY SUCCEED?
  • 05:12 BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE VOTES
  • 05:13 BUT ALSO THERE IS NO REAL...
  • 05:18 I WOULD SAY... CONSCIENCE...
  • 05:23 WORLD CONSCIENCE...
  • 05:24 A BEACON THAT WOULD BE OF DECENCY AND HOPE ASIDE FROM THE UNITED STATES
  • 05:29 THAT WOULD CALL THEIR BLUFF AND WOULD CASTIGATE THEM
  • 05:33 AND THIS IS BECAUSE MAYBE THERE ARE SOME SPLITS AMONG WESTERN DEMOCRACIES...
  • 05:39 MAYBE ITS BECAUSE OF CONVENIENCE...
  • 05:41 MAYBE BECAUSE OF LAZINESS...
  • 05:43 MAYBE SOME BECAUSE OF VERY NARROW INTERESTS, SHORT TERM INTERESTS...
  • 05:49 THEY DO NOT WANT TO UPSET THE ARABS...
  • 05:52 THEY ARE DEPENDENT ON OIL SUPPLY...THINGS LIKE THAT.
  • 05:57 BUT IN THE LONG RUN IT IS VERY, VERY...
  • 06:04 VERY, VERY URGENT
  • 06:06 AND VERY, VERY IMPORTANT THAT COUNTRIES, LIKE MINDED COUNTRIES...DECENT PEOPLE
  • 06:13 WOULD PULL TOGETHER...
  • 06:15 OTHER WISE DIVIDED WE FALL...UNITED WE CAN NOT ONLY SURVIVE BUT THRIVE.
  • 06:24 (Jeff speaking) BEING LIKE MINDED IN JERUSALEM DOESN'T COME ALL THAT EASY.
  • 06:28 CASE IN POINT...THIS ABANDONED HOTEL IN EAST JERUSALEM.
  • 06:33 IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING OF A GHOST TOWN
  • 06:36 AND IN SO MANY WAYS IT IS.
  • 06:39 YOU CAN TELL THAT PEOPLE ARE KEPT OUT
  • 06:42 BY THE FENCE THAT KEEPS PEOPLE OUT.
  • 06:45 BUT THE FENCE AND THE RUN DOWN NATURE OF THIS STRUCTURE
  • 06:49 DOESN'T KEEP THIS FROM BEING AT THE HUB OF TENSION AND ACTIVITY EVEN RIGHT UP TO TODAY...
  • 06:58 ACTIVITY THAT SWEEPS ACROSS THE POND TO THE AMERICAS...
  • 07:02 AND ACTIVITY THAT SWEEPS BACK HERE TO JERUSALEM.
  • 07:08 AND THIS BEHIND ME IS THE ONCE GREAT "SHEPHERD'S HOTEL"
  • 07:13 THAT RIGHT NOW IS ABUZZ WITH POLITICAL INTRIGUE
  • 07:18 AS PEOPLE WRESTLE WITH THE QUESTION,
  • 07:20 "DO THE JEWS HAVE A RIGHT TO A RESIDENCE HERE?"
  • 07:25 I WANT TO SPEAK ABOUT "HERE" IN A MOMENT
  • 07:27 BUT LET'S OPEN UP THE EAR FIRST...
  • 07:29 ZCHARYA IN THE HEBREW...
  • 07:31 ZECHARIAH IN THE ENGLISH.
  • 07:33 ZCHARYA COMES FROM "ZICHAR" WHICH MEANS "TO REMEMBER".
  • 07:38 AND WHAT DO WE REMEMBER IN ZECHARIAH CHAPTER 12?
  • 07:42 THE SCRIPTURE SAYS,
  • 07:43 "BEHOLD I WILL MAKE JERUSALEM A CUP OF DRUNKENNESS"
  • 07:47 "TO ALL THE SURROUNDING PEOPLES THAT LAY SIEGE AGAINST JUDAH AND JERUSALEM."
  • 07:53 AND THEN IN VERSE 3 HE SAYS,
  • 07:55 "THAT ALL THOSE WHO LOOK TO HEAVE IT AWAY WILL SURELY HURT THEMSELVES."
  • 08:01 AND IS IT NOT THE TRUTH TODAY THAT JERUSALEM IS ABUZZ WITH TENSION?
  • 08:07 IT'S THE CAPITAL OF THE JEWISH STATE OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE OF THE JEWISH RELIGION.
  • 08:14 IT'S THE PLACE TO WHICH THE SCRIPTURE SAYS JESUS WILL RETURN
  • 08:19 AS A CAPITAL OF AN ANCESTRAL JEWISH HOMELAND.
  • 08:22 JERUSALEM IS A PLACE OF TENSION.
  • 08:25 HERE BEHIND ME...THE SHEPHERD'S HOTEL WAS ONCE OWNED BY THE GRAND MUFTI.
  • 08:32 NOT A VERY FRIENDLY GUY...A NAZI COLLABORATOR...
  • 08:35 THIS HOTEL WAS ACQUIRED BY A JEWISH FELLOW,
  • 08:39 AN AMERICAN NAMED MOSKOWITZ
  • 08:41 WHO WANTS TO THEN TURN THIS JERUSALEM LOCALE INTO A CONSTRUCTION PROJECT
  • 08:48 AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT GRINDS TO A HALT
  • 08:50 AS POLITICAL PRESSURES BROUGHT TO BEAR TO TELL JEWS
  • 08:54 "OH NO...NO...YOU CAN'T BUILD THERE IN JERUSALEM!"
  • 09:00 IT'S INCREDIBLE...
  • 09:02 THE WORLD TODAY SEEMS TO HAVE A DECK OF CARDS THAT ARE STACKED AGAINST THE JEWISH PEOPLE.
  • 09:09 SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW?
  • 09:11 NOT LONG AGO HUCKABEE WHO WAS A PRESIDENTIAL WANNABE, A FORMER GOVERNOR OF ARKANSAS,
  • 09:16 CAME HERE IN FACT AND SPONSORED AN EVENT.
  • 09:19 IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT COULD HOUSE MUCH NOW DOES IT?
  • 09:21 BUT HE PUT A DINNER ON.
  • 09:23 AND WHY IS THAT?
  • 09:25 TO DRAW ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT WE INDEED SHOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE,
  • 09:30 OF THE JEWISH BID TO BUILD IN THEIR OWN CAPITAL CITY.
  • 09:36 IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE BEYOND THE PALE OF REASON NOW DOES IT?
  • 09:40 BUT WE LIVE IN A WORLD TODAY THAT'S NOT DRIVEN BY REASON
  • 09:44 PEOPLE ARE DRIVEN BY SPIRITS THAT THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND,
  • 09:48 BY FORCES THAT THEY CAN'T CONTROL
  • 09:51 AND IT SWEEPS UP EVEN TO HERE,
  • 09:53 JERUSALEM, EAST JERUSALEM,
  • 09:55 TO THIS PLACE, THE SHEPHERD'S HOTEL,
  • 09:58 A PLACE WHERE JEWS ARE LOOKING TO CONSTRUCT
  • 10:00 WHILE FORCES ARE LOOKING TO DESTRUCT AND OBSTRUCT
  • 10:04 AND GET IN THE WAY OF THE JEWISH BID FOR RESIDENCY IN THE ANCESTRAL HOMELAND.
  • 10:10 WE CLOSE EVERY PROGRAM SAYING,
  • 10:11 SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM,
  • 10:14 PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM.
  • 10:16 AND WHEN I STAND HERE IN FRONT OF THE SHEPHERD'S HOTEL
  • 10:19 I'M REMINDED THAT INDEED WE DO NEED TO KEEP JERUSALEM IN OUR PRAYERS.
  • 10:27 IN PSALM CHAPTER 2
  • 10:29 THE AUTHOR ASKS A QUESTION
  • 10:31 THAT I'VE WONDERED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION...
  • 10:33 "WHY DO THE NATIONS RAGE?"
  • 10:37 AND PARTICULARLY, WHY DO THEY RAGE AGAINST JEWS, AGAINST ISRAEL AND PLOT ISRAEL'S DEMISE?
  • 10:47 I THINK THAT PEOPLE ARE DRIVEN BY FORCES THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND,
  • 10:53 BY SPIRITS THAT THEY CAN'T CONTROL.
  • 10:56 PEOPLE ARE PROPELLED INTO A WORLD OF MADNESS.
  • 11:01 AND THAT'S THE BAD NEWS.
  • 11:03 THE GOOD NEWS, HOWEVER,
  • 11:04 IS THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE DRIVEN BY A NEW SPIRIT,
  • 11:09 FOR SCRIPTURE PROMISES THAT GOD'S PEOPLE WILL GET A NEW HEART AND A NEW SPIRIT
  • 11:14 AND WE INDEED ARE TRANSFORMED.
  • 11:18 I MENTION THIS BECAUSE IN ISRAEL TODAY THERE'S NOT JUST BAD NEWS HAPPENING,
  • 11:24 IT'S NOT JUST THE STORY OF THE WORLD COMING UNGLUED
  • 11:28 BUT RATHER, INCREASINGLY MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE COMING TO JERUSALEM
  • 11:33 TO WORSHIP THE GOD OF ISRAEL THERE
  • 11:36 AND TO STAND BEHIND THE JEWISH PEOPLE WHO ARE MAKING A BID THERE,
  • 11:42 A BID THAT'S BORN OUT OF PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT I MIGHT ADD.
  • 11:46 THEY COME IN DROVES BY THE THOUSANDS
  • 11:49 AND ANNUALLY BY THE TENS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS.
  • 11:53 OUR FRIEND, DAVID DOLAN,
  • 11:55 A CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT WHO WORKS FOR OTHERS AS WELL
  • 11:59 WAS THERE COVERING THIS FANTASTIC MARCH
  • 12:02 PUT TOGETHER BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN EMBASSY IN JERUSALEM.
  • 12:08 WHEN YOU HEAR HIM AND LOOK AT THESE PICTURES YOU MIGHT SEE YOURSELF THERE
  • 12:11 CAUSE IT'S A STORY THAT'S CHOCK FULL OF JEWISH LOVING, ISRAEL LOVING CHRISTIAN PEOPLE.
  • 12:17 AND OFF TO THAT STORY WE GO.
  • 12:22 I'M HERE AT GAN SACHER
  • 12:23 WHICH IS SACHER PARK IN THE CENTER OF JERUSALEM.
  • 12:27 RIGHT ON THE HILL BEHIND ME IS THE KNESSET,
  • 12:31 ISRAELI GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS,
  • 12:33 BUT HERE IN THE PARK TODAY,
  • 12:35 THE DAY OF THE JERUSALEM MARCH,
  • 12:37 IT'S FILLED WITH PEOPLE
  • 12:38 NOT ONLY FROM ALL OVER ISRAEL AS ON A NORMAL DAY,
  • 12:41 NOT ONLY JEWS FROM ABROAD
  • 12:43 BUT WITH THOUSANDS OF CHRISTIANS
  • 12:46 THAT HAVE COME UP TO CELEBRATE THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.
  • 12:50 YOU COULD SEE BEHIND ME THE DIFFERENT FLAGS,
  • 12:54 THE DIFFERENT BANNERS ANNOUNCING THE COUNTRIES,
  • 12:58 DOZEN OF COUNTRIES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD PEOPLE HAVE COME.

  • 13:08 COMING HERE TO CELEBRATE THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES WITH THE LOCAL PEOPLE,
  • 13:12 THE LOCAL CITIZENS OF JERUSALEM,
  • 13:15 THE CITY I CALL HOME.
  • 13:17 AND WE'LL BE MARCHING FROM THIS PARK IN JUST A FEW MINUTES
  • 13:20 UP THE HILL TOWARDS THE OLD CITY OF JERUSALEM
  • 13:24 MARCHING DOWN THE CENTRAL STREETS OF JERUSALEM
  • 13:28 GOING DOWN KING GEORGE STREET,
  • 13:30 THEN TO JAFFA ROAD
  • 13:32 AND ENDING UP RIGHT OUTSIDE THE WALLS OF THE OLD CITY JERUSALEM.
  • 13:36 PEOPLE WILL GATHER THERE, LISTEN TO SPEECHES, LISTEN TO MUSIC,
  • 13:40 BUT MAINLY IT'S ABOUT THE MARCH.

  • 21:17 AND WE ARE IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD
  • 21:20 AN INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN EMBASSY.
  • 21:22 THE INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN EMBASSY FIRST OF ALL
  • 21:24 IS PROBABLY MOST FAMOUS FOR IT'S HIGH PROFILE PUBLIC EVENT
  • 21:29 WHICH IS THE ANNUAL CHRISTIAN CELEBRATION
  • 21:31 OF THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES
  • 21:33 WHEREBY WE BRING THOUSANDS OF CHRISTIANS HERE
  • 21:35 FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
  • 21:37 TO PHYSICALLY DEMONSTRATE ON THE STREETS OF ISRAEL
  • 21:40 THEIR LOVE AND THEIR CONCERN FOR THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
  • 21:43 LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION
  • 21:44 TO GET AWAY FROM ALL THE GOOD NEWS...
  • 21:46 HOW DO YOU PERCEIVE THE CHURCH'S RELATIONSHIP WITH ISRAEL ON THE WHOLE?
  • 21:51 DOES EVERYONE THINK LIKE YOU?
  • 21:53 WELL I THINK OF COURSE A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T THINK LIKE US.
  • 21:56 WE REPRESENT A STREAM OF CHRISTIANITY
  • 22:00 THAT REJECTS WHAT WE CALL REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY
  • 22:03 AND REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY SEES NO PARTICULAR DIVINE INTERVENTION
  • 22:08 OR SIGNIFICANCE IN THE MODERN DAY RESTORATION OF THE JEWISH STATE.
  • 22:12 BUT OF COURSE WE DO
  • 22:14 BECAUSE WE BASE OUR THEOLOGY SQUARELY ON A PROMISE
  • 22:18 THAT GOD GAVE TO ABRAHAM 4,000 YEARS AGO.
  • 22:21 AND SO THERE ARE MANY CHRISTIANS
  • 22:24 WITHIN THE HISTORICAL CHRISTIAN STREAMS AND ELSEWHERE
  • 22:28 WHO DON'T SEE IT AS WE SEE IT TODAY.
  • 22:30 AND OF COURSE THERE ARE EVEN SOME CHRISTIAN ZIONISTS
  • 22:33 WHO HAVE A MORE POLITICAL IDEA OF WHAT CHRISTIAN ZIONISM IS,
  • 22:38 WHEREAS WE SEE CHRISTIAN ZIONISM
  • 22:41 AS BASED SQUARELY AND FIRMLY ON A BIBLICAL FOUNDATION
  • 22:45 AND THAT THERE ARE MANY FACTORS
  • 22:47 THAT ARE PLAYING INTO ISRAEL'S MODERN DAY RESTORATION TODAY.
  • 22:51 GIVEN THE WORLD THAT WE LIVE IN POLITICALLY NOW...
  • 22:54 TO SHIFT GEARS JUST A TAD BIT...
  • 22:56 ARE YOU CONCERNED THAT ISRAEL IS INCREASINGLY ISOLATED
  • 23:01 AND EVANGELICAL PRAYER WARRIORS ARE RUNNING OUT OF STEAM
  • 23:05 AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE NEEDLE IS POINTING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION?
  • 23:08 ABSOLUTELY, I THINK WE'RE LIVING IN ISRAEL'S MOST DANGEROUS HOUR JEFF
  • 23:13 AND THAT IS THE THREAT OF AHMADINEJAD
  • 23:16 WHICH IS NOT JUST A ONE OFF THREAT.
  • 23:19 AS YOU KNOW ALMOST MONTH AFTER MONTH
  • 23:21 HE RENEWS HIS THREAT AGAINST THE JEWISH STATE IN SOME FORM OR ANOTHER
  • 23:27 WHICH BASICALLY MEANS AS HE HAS STATED
  • 23:30 THAT ISRAEL SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE MAP OF THE EARTH.
  • 23:34 SO THERE'S HOSTILES, THERE'S BELLIGERENCE IN THE WORLD?
  • 23:36 THAT'S RIGHT
  • 23:37 AND EVEN WHEN HE RUNS HIS COURSE
  • 23:39 IT'S GOING TO EMERGE AFRESH >>ABSOLUTELY
  • 23:41 FROM SOME OTHER QUARTER,
  • 23:42 SOME OTHER ISSUE.
  • 23:43 AND THE REAL EVIDENCE OF THIS
  • 23:45 IS IN THE LAST FEW YEARS IN 2006
  • 23:48 AND OF COURSE AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR, THE END OF 2008,
  • 23:52 ISRAEL HAS FOUGHT TO PROXY WARS WITH IRAN.
  • 23:56 THE ONE WAS WITH HEZBOLLAH IN 2006 IN THE NORTH OF THE COUNTRY
  • 24:01 AND THE LATEST ONE WAS AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR AGAINST HAMAS.
  • 24:05 BOTH OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE IRANIAN FUNDED
  • 24:08 AND WITH MILITARY EQUIPMENT, ROCKETS OF ONE TYPE OR ANOTHER
  • 24:12 THAT HAVE COME FROM IRAN.
  • 24:14 SO IN ESSENCE ISRAEL HAS BEEN AND IS AT WAR WITH IRAN.
  • 24:18 IT'S NOT A WAR THAT BEGINS WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON.
  • 24:22 THE WAR WAS TURNED ON...
  • 24:24 THE MOTOR WAS TURNED ON YEARS AGO.
  • 24:25 THE MOTOR WAS TURNED ON SOME YEARS AGO
  • 24:27 AND IT'S AN INTERESTING THING
  • 24:29 BECAUSE ISRAEL IS NO COMMON BORDER WITH IRAN,
  • 24:32 NO COMMON FIGHT WITH IRAN.
  • 24:34 THIS IS PURELY A RADICAL ISLAMIC AGENDA
  • 24:37 FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH STATE.
  • 24:40 AS I TELL PEOPLE ALL THE TIME,
  • 24:41 AHMADINEJAD HAS A REAL PROBLEM
  • 24:44 BECAUSE HE WILL HAVE TO REMOVE GOD FROM HIS THRONE
  • 24:47 BEFORE HE REMOVES ISRAEL FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
  • 24:58 (ZOLA PLAYING THE FLUTE)
  • 25:35 AND THAT WAS ZOLA LEVITT...
  • 25:38 THE LATE ZOLA LEVITT IN THE LAND THAT HE LOVED.
  • 25:42 I HOPE YOU'RE COMING TO LOVE IT TOO.
  • 25:45 WE LIVE IN A WORLD TODAY WHERE SO MANY ARE GIVEN TO DISPARAGING THE JEWISH PEOPLE,
  • 25:52 CASTING ASPERSIONS ON THE MODERN NATION STATE OF ISRAEL.
  • 25:57 IN A WORLD THAT'S GIVEN TO ABANDONMENT AND BETRAYAL AND SO MUCH DISAPPOINTMENT.
  • 26:02 THOSE OF US THAT HAVE SIMILAR WORLD VIEWS NEED TO BAND TOGETHER.
  • 26:09 I HOPE YOU WILL VISIT OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.LEVITT.COM.
  • 26:14 I HOPE YOU'LL CALL US ON 1-800-WONDERS AND WANT TO BE CONNECTED TO US.
  • 26:20 IN A WORLD WHERE ISRAEL HAS SO FEW FRIENDS
  • 26:24 THOSE OF US THAT LOVE THE LORD AND LOVE THE JEWISH PEOPLE,
  • 26:27 WE NEED TO BAND TOGETHER AND TOGETHER LIFT UP THE TESTIMONY OF GOD'S LOVE FOR THE WORLD
  • 26:35 AND GOD'S LOVE FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE.
  • 26:38 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GOING WITH US ON THE JOURNEY IN OUR TELEVISION PROGRAM
  • 26:43 AS YOU FOLLOW US ALONG.
  • 26:45 AS YOU GO NOW MAY I SAY
  • 26:46 GOD BLESS YOU...
  • 26:48 MAY HE BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU.
  • 26:50 AND AS YOU GO...AS ALWAYS WHEN YOU GO I SAY
  • 26:52 SHA'ALU SHALOM YERUSHALAYIM
  • 26:56 PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM
