Houthis, Samaria, and Rescuing Kids

Here in Israel, I’m not concerned about this:

Jerusalem Post, 8 May 2025 pg 1.

Why? Because I see that the USA is angling to make more peace with more of the moderate Arab nations.  In 2021 when Trump left the White House, Saudi Arabia was very very close to signing the Abraham Accords.  Of course, the Biden/Harris administration had no interest in more peace with more Arabs, so they sat on their hands and let the deal fade.  Now that Trump is back, Saudi Arabia is again close to signing.  So the goal is for moderate Arab nations to join together with Israel and the USA to be strong and take a stand against the Iranian axis.

Meanwhile, yesterday here in Judea and Samaria: 

Jerusalem Post, 8 May 2025 pg 1.

Follow up: A suspect has been arrested.

 

Let’s take a moment and celebrate that children are being rescued and child sex offenders are getting arrested and taken to have their trials in court:

Day 578: Israel Issues Ultimatum to Hamas

“An Israeli defense official said that if no deal is reached, a new Gaza offensive will begin.”

Jerusalem Post, 6 May 2025 pg 1.

Calls for the government to lay out the plan to the Israeli public:

“If the government once again asks the public to brace for a prolonged and intense campaign, it owes it a clear explanation of intent.”

Rep from South Yemen Denounces Houthi Attack as Terrorism

‘Houthis are the ones killing us, not Israel!’

South Yemen was liberated from the Houthis in 2015 with the help of the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates.  North Yemen, still controlled by the Houthi tribe which is supported by the Iranians, launched another attack on Israeli civilians yesterday with a missile that bypassed US and Israeli defense systems, landing in grassy areas near roads associated with Ben Gurion Airport.  Two civilians were lightly injured by the blast, another was injured by falling while running to shelter.

Currently, South Yemen continues to strengthen ties with the USA, thanks to the Aden Declaration on 4 May 2017 under the first Trump Administration. Meanwhile, South Yemen continues its resistance against the Iran-backed Houthis in North Yemen.

4.0 Earthquake and a Blast – or two – in Iran

My best guess:  Iran conducted a nuclear test which triggered a 4.0 earthquake, which in turn triggered a fire in Qoms and a factory explosion.

Why? Well, I would say without very much guesswork that an explosion in a motorcycle factory is not going to cause a 4.0 earthquake.  However, the reverse could be true:  Such an earthquake could certainly trigger a factory accident as well as a fire in Qoms.

We see that Iran continues to make improvements on its intercontinental “Qassem Basiar” missile, which has a range of 1,200 km (745 miles).

We also know that Iran continues to enrich uranium to 60% when the maximum needed for civilian power usage is 4%.  Historically, Pakistan and North Korea also lied about their civilian nuclear programs to cover up their military nuclear facilities, which eventually successfully created nuclear weapons for them.

US Archeologists Head for the Ararat Mountains

Decades ago, Ron Wyatt conducted an amateur investigation of this boat-shaped structure in the Mountains of Ararat, using what he said was the best underground X-ray technology available at the time.  His team showed videos of large iron rivets which could have been used to fasten beams of wood together. They claimed that these thousands of iron artifacts mapped out a 3D framework of the skeleton of a boat with ribs which matched the Biblical dimensions described in the book of Genesis.

Ron Wyatt’s work has its fair share of supporters and critics.  Coming up will be the first professional investigation conducted by the archeological community:

Captured from Jerusalem Post on 5 May, 2025.

Reading the article, it occurs to me that the earthquake that uncovered this strange shape on the hills occurred in May of 1948–the same month* and year of Israel’s Declaration of Independence and the start of the war:

“The Durupınar hill first drew attention in May 1948, after earthquakes and torrential rains stripped away overburden. Turkish Army Captain İlhan Durupınar re-examined the site in 1959 while mapping the region for NATO and forwarded his photographs to Ankara, giving the outcrop its current name.”

When Ron Wyatt noticed the arial photos in a publication, he thought that it looked boat-shaped and started to think about making a trip, which he did in the 1980’s.

Now in 2025 it appears that the professional archeologists have made headway in agreements with the Turkish government to finally get started.

 

We Carry Forward with Help from Readers.

 

 

*In 1948 on the Gregorian Calendar, Israel’s Independence was declared on May 14, which was the 5th of Iyar, the second month of the year which begins at Aviv, in the springtime, the month of Passover.  Year to year, the 5th of Iyar* will appear on various days from April to May on the Gregorian Calendar.  In the event that the 5th lands on a weekly Shabbat, the celebration day would be moved a couple days to honor the Shabbat which holds the higher position in honor.

Life-Affirming Culture Choices

Culture: Tomorrow, the air raid sirens will sound for 3 minutes starting at 10 am. The nation will rise and stand still in remembrance of those who have fallen while protecting us.

This is distinguished from the day last week which was remembrance of the Shoah (Holocaust).

Then, the following day is a celebration for Independence Day. (On the 5th* of Iyar, the Second Month.  In 1948, it was named as the 14th of May on the Gregorian Calendar).

I think it’s so amazing that this nation, oddly, keeps the memorial day connected with the independence day, rather than separation of some months in between. The intention is: There’s no celebration of independence without giving respect to those who sacrificed – and continue to do so – for this independence which we enjoy. And then after the mourning, immediately celebrate because this is the result of their sacrifice.  So celebrating independence is another way to honor the fallen. 

Israel is the most life-affirming country I’ve ever experienced.

Thanks to All who Support and Pray.
