They apparently didn't realize that two more sons were asleep in another room. When the Fogels' daughter, Tamar, 12, returned home from a Sabbath youth group meeting, she found her two-year-old brother, Yishai, standing over them screaming for them to wake up.
To call this outrage a crime... to even call it a tragedy does not do it justice. It's more than either of those. This is pure, unadulterated evil incarnate. Whoever would slash, then practically behead a three-month-old baby girl, is below human. You don't have to be a theologian to realize who motivates that kind of hatred.
Yet the world has hardly taken notice. In fact, The New York Times put some effort into deflecting the blame back toward Israel and its 'settlement policies.'
But the Palestinians themselves took notice. In fact, they were so overjoyed that in Gaza, they danced in the streets and passed out sweets to celebrate.
These are the people the world wants Israel to accept as a "peace partner."
As Prime Minister Netanyahu told CNN's Piers Morgan, "What am I going to negotiate with them? The method of our decapitation?"
While all eyes are on Libya and the West's befuddled military adventure, growing numbers of demonstrators have been protesting in Syria. But unlike the Egyptians, the Syrians are responding with live ammunition! They're still protesting in Jordan, too, and even Hamas is beginning to feel the heat in Gaza. Frustrated Gazans have taken to the streets to protest the disunity between Hamas and Fatah, the party of PA President Mahmoud Abbas.
So Hamas launched 53 rockets into Israel in an effort to provoke Israel into retaliation, thus rallying the Gazans behind the Hamas government.
Remember the Tea Party -- according to the Mainstream Media, those racist, rabble-rousing hate-mongers who were just playing nice in front of the camera? Well, when the Left doesn't get its way, you talk about not playing nice! In Wisconsin, some Republicans, and even a university professor are being subjected to a barrage of hate and violence-filled threats because they approve of what Governor Scott Walker is trying to do.
In a letter to Timothy, the Apostle Paul predicted precisely this sort of behavior in the days leading up to Christ's return. Folks, we're there. But don't get so caught up in the "doom and gloom" aspects of Bible prophecy that you forget that we have the blessed hope of the soon return of Jesus Christ. Though we're not going to be exempt from some bad times, we have been promised that He'll retrieve us before the "time of Jacob's Trouble," or the Tribulation.
Get your heart ready and keep looking up!
