A Few Thoughts on Current Events
I thought I'd chime in here in honor of my brother's yartzheit. Work doesn't provide me with time to post here so often.
I believe that the unrest surrounding Israel will Be finished before 5772, around August. But the changes will continue, much like the American Civil War did not bring complete freedom to African Americans.
Oil is becoming less reliable, nuclear power is obviously going out of style, and a huge natural gas find will reach production in the coming years. Reminds me of Isaiah 60, which mentions the darkness that is approaching followed by economic prosperity for Israel.
Sooner or later Israel will be dragged in to a conflict with Gaza, until leadership arises which realizes the necessity of returned Jewish settlement. The conflicts generally increase in severity each round. Imagine the isolation and condemnation of Oferet Yetzuka and the flotilla when Israel acts with more force. We will see if we can hear the voice of Yitzhak telling us to flee Esav.
