Reaping from what we sowed to Godzilla and King Cong!

I remember selling hundreds of pounds of scrap copper, aluminum, iron, and ot her
metals to the scrap dealer east of the old railroad depot, and to the chicken house alongside the railroad east of the bayou in Batesville, Arkansas. The Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor and I was entering my teens. The United States was buying all the scrap metals they could find, and by mowing lawns, picking blackberries, working at the stock yard auctions, hustling hamburgers and hot dogs at Vic William’s Concessions, and selling scrap metal, I bought my first Savage semiautomatic rifle, bicycle, movie tickets, popcorn, and ice cream bars.
Before December 7, 1941, when I had reached the ripe old age of 9,
the United States also sold billions of tons of scrap metals to Japan. It was indeed unfortunate that some of that scrap metal found its way back to us in ways that produced countless allied deaths.
The CIA deemed it would be advantageous for us in the cold war to help the forces of Osama bin Laden with military hardware of several types, including antiaircraft and antitank shoulder held missile launchers. It drove the Soviets out of Afghanistan, but later came back to haunt us,
Of course, no one could predict for sure our sales to the Japanese and help to Osama bin Laden would later produce unfavorable results for us, but, in the case of what we are doing for Fatah to help them defeat Hamas, it is predictable what will happen.
It is like helping Godzilla to defeat King Kong. Whoever wins won’t like you any better for having helped them after they win, and the loser will join with the victor in a much tighter bond of hate for the one they both despise. No matter what the U.S. does, Israel will end up facing both Godzilla and King Kong when the future attack is launched against her.
At the tender earth age of 7, I was introduced to the so-called intrinsic goodness of man as I watched the Nazi invasion of Poland and slaughter of its people.
Having been observant of mankindâ
€™s basic eloquent use of his basic intrinsic goodness from age 7 to 74, as I was taught about my own inherited self-centered nature by the convicting power of the Bible, there is absolutely no question in my mind that mankind is headed for the inevitable predicted end of this particular age of the Gentiles. We have finally grown to the fullness of
the inherited depravity of mankind.
II Timothy 3:1-4 – This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
Romans 3:10-12 – As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: [11] There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. [12] They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Romans 11:25 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.
Psalm 2:1-9 – Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? [2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, [3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
[4] He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. [5] Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
[6] Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. [7] I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. [8] Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. [9] Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
Revelation 16:15,16 – Behold, I come as a thief.
Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. [16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

PA Offensive Capabilities Increasing, With US Help
Tuesday, October 31, 2006 / 9 Cheshvan 5767
Fatah terrorists are receiving US arms and training, while Hamas terrorists
are preparing missile and anti-tank divisions.
Speaking before the Knesset’s Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Tuesday, the IDF Southern Command chief warned that the Palestinian Authority’s ruling Hamas organization is planning to establish missile and anti-tank units. The new units were decided upon in light of the lessons Hamas learned from the Hizbullah’s successes against Israel during the recent war in Lebanon,
the IDF commander explained.
“Hamas is establishing an organized division with a capability against tanks and with missiles that could reach threatening distances,” Major General Yoav Galant told the Knesset committee.
Anti-tank missiles caused about a third of the IDF casualties in Lebanon during the recent campaign against the Hizbullah. Military analysts, as well as Hamas propagandists and strategists, have noted that long-range missiles of the type used by Hizbullah deployed in Judea, Samaria and Gaza would place many Israeli strategic facilities in danger.
In an initiative presented as an effort to counter the growing strength and influence of Hamas, the United States has been arming and training a militia affiliated with the Fatah terrorist group, headed by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. The premise for the American support is that Fatah and Hamas are headed for a violent civil war, and the US prefers a Fatah victory.
According to security analyst Aluf Benn, American security coordinator General Keith Dayton appeared before representatives of the Quartet in London last week, presenting them with a program for training the PA’s presidential guard – Force 17, controlled by Abbas – using Egyptian, British and Jordanian instructors.
PA sources say the training by Americans started more than a month ago, at a compound near the Intercontinental Hotel in Jericho.
In the past, official PA militias were found to have used weapons provided by the US and Israel in terrorist attacks on Jewish targets.
Earlier this month, in an interview with WorldNetDaily’s Aaron Klein, a Force 17 terrorist implied that weapons supplied to Fatah from the United States would be transferred to the Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades, which is recognized as a terrorist organization under US law.
