This past weekend, IDF soldiers operating in Rafah retrieved the remains of six murdered captives held by Hamas terrorists. World Israel News (WIN) reported, that on Sunday, “IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that the six captives appeared to have been executed by their captors ‘a short time’ before they were located by Israeli soldiers.”
They further went on to report that “the remains of the six hostages were returned to Israel at approximately 4:00 a.m. Sunday, and were immediately brought for forensic testing and identification.”
“The examinations revealed, according to the report, that the six hostages had been shot in the head sometime within the prior 48 hours,” WIN detailed. “The remains of the six captives were found without the benefit of intelligence information when a unit of IDF soldiers were traversing a tunnel under Rafah.”
Tragic. Our hearts and our prayers are out for the families whose loved ones were murdered by Hamas terrorists. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday said that he was sorry that he was unable to bring the six hostages home alive and asked for forgiveness.
Is the world sympathetic to him? No. They are more sympathetic to the Hamas terrorists. They blame Benjamin Netanyahu, not the demonic maniacs, because, in their eyes, this happened because of his failure to secure a ceasefire for a hostage deal. You have got to be kidding me!
Joe Biden, when asked if Bibi is doing enough, cold-heartedly said, “No.”
To let Hamas live to fight another day is the most vile, disgusting, non-sympathetic, and unloving thing that anyone could ever ask of Israel. They didn’t start this war. Hamas started this war.
For almost 20 years, Hamas has squandered and stolen billions of dollars of foreign money to make their leaders rich and build hundreds of miles of network tunnels under Gaza homes, mosques, schools, and UNRWA facilities. And Hamas has done all this with one intent: to destroy the Jewish State.
Come on, Joe Biden! Come on, media! Come on, you the left! Wake up, stand with Israel, and give Prime Minister Netanyahu the backing he needs to finish the job and eliminate Hamas.
Hamas has done nothing to help the people in Gaza. They could have built a beautiful tourist destination, built infrastructure to help give the people a future, and created countless good-paying jobs; instead, they created the largest terror battleground on the planet. To top that off, they use their own people as human shields. Yet, the world blames the Israeli Prime Minister.
Has the world forgotten what took place on October 7th? Have they forgotten that it was Hamas who brutally murdered the six hostages? Even a lot of the media simply said that the hostages “died.” No, they didn’t just simply “die.” They were brutally murdered by a demonic death cult called Hamasโplain and simple.
To make matters worse, in Israel, over the past couple of days, progressive left-minded Israelis resumed protests against Netanyahu. These protesters are behaving as though Netanyahu is the one preventing an end to the war and a return of the hostages. If you want an end to the war, tell Hamas to surrender and return the remaining hostages! It’s that simple; the war would be over. That’s not happening, is it? Instead, they want to blame Bibi. Pinch me! I must be in a bad dream. How can people be so foolish and ignorant?
Blame Hamas. Blame Hezbollah. Blame the Houthis. Blame Iran. Blame all the anti-semites. But stand with your Prime Minister, for goodness’ sake! He’s trying to prevent another October 7th from ever happening again.
None of this catches God by surprise. One day, when Israel’s Messiah, Yeshua, returns, He will end anti-Semitism. He will put an end to the Israel haters and to those who wish to destroy His chosen people. He will rule this world with a rod of iron from Jerusalem on the throne of His father, David.
Zechariah Chapter 14 speaks of that yet future day. This is what we read in verses 16-21: “And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the Lord will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, Holiness Unto The Lord; and the pots in the Lord’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the Lord of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the Lord of hosts.”
Friends, one day, the Lord is going to fix this mess that the world has created and continues to create. Until then, let’s continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Let’s pray for the families of the hostages and those who have died since October 7th. Let’s continue to pray for Israel’s leaders to be wise and for the remaining hostages to be rescued or returned. Let’s pray for Hamas to ultimately be destroyed and for the Palestinians to finally choose life over death and extend their hand in peace and cooperation with Israel.
Most importantly, let’s pray for people to turn to the only Godโthe God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacobโwhile they still have breath.
