MK OREN: “OBAMA BROUGHT RADICAL MUSLIM VALUES INTO THE WHITE HOUSE: Michael Oren, former Israeli Ambassador to the United States and current member of the Israeli Knesset spoke Saturday, 28 Nov. 2015, in Beer Sheva against Barack Obama. Oren claimed that it is the first time that “radical Muslim values have entered the White House.” Oren referred to the tensions between President Obama and PM Bibi Netanyahu, stating that “Obama’s worldview would have been problematic to any Israeli government, including a leftist government.” Oren also stated that “Obama never would use the term ‘radical Islam’ because it defines who belongs to this world.” In June 2015, Oren wrote a harsh Wall Street Journal article in which he accused Obama of deliberately causing the deterioration in the relationship between the United States and Israel. Oren clarified that he did not believe the USA President was anti-Israeli but that he was too strict with Israel whenever it came to the diplomatic issue. Oren asserted, among other things, that “Mr. Obama voided President Bush’s commitment to include the major settlement blocs and Jewish Jerusalem within Israel’s borders in any peace agreement. Instead, he insisted on a total freeze of Israeli construction in those areas. (Matzav)

HAMAS: FIRST JUDEA & SAMARIA, THEN THE REST OF ‘PALESTINE’: Hamas plans to “liberate” Judea and Samaria first, and then the rest of “Palestine,” the group’s deputy leader Ismail Haniyeh declared on Sunday, 15 Nov. 2015. Speaking to the Palestine news sources, Haniyeh outlined his desired strategy for the destruction of Israel through the “Al-Quds Intifada,” which is what Hamas is calling the current terror wave against Israel. First and foremost, he called for a conference in Gaza of the interim leadership of the Palestine Liberation Organization in order develop the intifada (uprising). The inifada is the best way to achieve statehood, claimed Haniyeh, and in order to achieve that, leadership that is coordinated on the field must be established, and an agreement on the goals of the intifada must be reached. Those goals, according to Haniyeh, are: The “liberation” of Gaza, Judea and Samaria, Jerusalem and the terrorist prisoners being held in Israel, and then a plan on how to liberate the rest of “Palestine.” Haniyeh reiterated that Hamas will not recognize Israel and will not agree to an alternative homeland.

FRANCE HITS ISIS ‘CAPITAL’ IN SYRIA:

 French warplanes 15 November, 2015, pounded the city of Raqa, the ISIS group's self-proclaimed “capital” in Syria, destroying a command post and a training camp, the defense ministry said. In its first air strike against ISIS since the string of deadly Paris attacks claimed by the jihadist group, 12 warplanes, including 10 fighter bombers, dropped 20 bombs on the targets. The planes left from Jordan and the United Arab Emirates and was conducted in coordination with American forces. French President Francois Hollande blamed the ISIS group for the gun and suicide attacks that left at least 129 dead in Paris on Friday, 13 November 2015, calling them an "act of war." And later, French PM Manuel Valls said that his country needed to scale up military operations in Syria in order to “annihilate” ISIS. “The enemy is ISIS,” said Valls. (Arutz-7)

  
JONATHAN POLLARD IS FREE: Longtime prisoner Jonathan Pollard left the Federal Correction Complex in Butner, North Carolina, after 30 years of being held on espionage charges, his wife Esther announced at 11 a.m. Friday, 20 Nov. 2015. Esther and a number of Pollard's closest confidantes were waiting to greet Pollard as he first tasted freedom; from there they set off for New York to begin their lives anew. In New York, a probation officer will be assigned to Pollard by the USA Department of Justice, and will inspect to make sure the 61-year-old stays within all of the limitations placed on him. Any excursion beyond the immediate area of his residence will require the approval of the probation officer. He will likewise be forbidden from flying to Israel. Pollard, who was arrested on charges of spying for the Jewish state in 1985 was later sentenced to life in prison. He has been suffering from poor health and has become the subject of a high-profile campaign for his release. Once Pollard's release was granted, controversy remained over the conditions of his parole, after Obama refused to intervene to allow him to return home to Israel before a 5-year limit has expired. (Arutz-7) Pollard was imprisoned for 30 years for having passed information to Israel about terrorist activity. His prison term has been viewed by many as glaringly harsh. He was sentenced to life in prison on one charge of passing classified information to a friendly nation, a crime generally punished with a 2 to 4-year prison term. Please pray for Pollard’s health, which is deteriorating. Pray for his adjustment to a new life after decades of being in prison. Seven of those years were spent in excruciating solitary confinement. Intercede also, that Pollard and his wife may be able to make their home in Israel soon, in spite of the present 5-year limit, preventing him from leaving the USA.

"The European Union announced it has approved what it described as "the Interpretative Notice on indication of origin of goods from the territories occupied by Israel since June 1967." A commission spokesman said they would simply "ensure the uniform application of the rules concerning the indication of origin of Israeli settlement products. The aim is to ensure effective implementation of existing EU legislation." However, Israel's Foreign Ministry said "There is no doubt that the main purpose of the measure is to exert political pressure upon Israel...these measures are discriminatory in nature. It is intolerable that Israel is the only country that has been singled out by the EU for such a policy, despite the fact that there are over 200 disputed territories worldwide." They "constitute an attempt to prejudge the outcome of future negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. Worse, they could serve as an additional incentive for the PA to eschew direct negotiations with Israel."  ICEJ News 

Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas continued his diplomatic offensive against Israel at the United Nations General Assembly, leveling a wide range of accusations against the Jewish state and calling for international protection.   But amidst all the usual bluster, many observers missed a subtle, yet crucial, theme within Abbas's speech: That far from the "moderate" image he has cultivated, he views all of Israel as "occupied" and illegitimate, and aspires to the destruction of the country in its entirety.  At one point, in comments broadcast live on PA TV and highlighted by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW), Abbas referred to Israel's "67-year occupation" - referring not to the "West Bank" (Judea and Samaria), but to the very founding of the State of Israel in 1948. "Mr. President, ladies and gentlemen, haven't you wondered: For how long will this protracted Israeli occupation of our land last? After 67 years (i.e., Israel's creation), how long? Do you think it can last, and that it benefits the Palestinian people?" Abbas asked.    Arutz7News

As judgement begins to fall on nations across the world, pray many will separate truth from lie and embrace JESUS the Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach as LORD of all.

It was recently revealed that Israeli special forces carried out a daring operation to rescue the last Jewish family in the Syrian city of Aleppo.  The Jewish Chronicle reports that preparation for the mission began months in advance. First an Israeli-American businessman named Moti Kahana sent a message to the family, whose name has not been released, that he wanted to get them out of the war-torn country. "Despite the constant dangers in Syria, though, the family was too afraid to even take the chance on escaping.
Kahana, who has a number of connections with rebel forces, soon heard reports that ISIS was closing in on the family and decided to get them out, whether they liked it or not.

Without revealing precisely how or with whom he coordinated his plans, Kahana set the wheels in motion for the IDF to make another tally in its history of saving stranded Jews, a list that already made its mark in Yemen and Ethiopia.   Once the time came, three soldiers knocked on the family's front door. The 88-year-old matriarch answered, fearing that Assad's soldiers had come to take them all away. Instead, the soldiers ordered the seven people present that they could each take one bag and that they must get into a waiting minibus.  After the minibus began moving, the soldiers handed out Syrian passports and said that they would soon be free.  The vehicle was stopped at an ISIS checkpoint, but the family was able to convince the guard that they were refugees trying to escape from Assad. The guard was so impressed by their claims that he even called other checkpoints, instructing them to let the minibus through.  It took them 36 hours to cross the hundred kilometers to the Turkish border. Once out of Syria, they drove to a rented home in Istanbul, where Kahana was waiting." Arutz7 News

Please pray that any Jews remaining in Syria are also rescued and brought to Israel
