As Sir Winston Churchill Once Said: “Doom Marches On”

Brian of London

As the “road to Annapolis” (as all the TV news broadcasts here in Israel have been subtitled for the last few weeks) marches to it’s sorry end, I bring you something that Winston Churchill wrote while furiously warning that letting a militaristic Germany re-arm was global suicide:

“Virtuous motives, trammelled by inertia and timidity, are no match for armed and resolute wickedness. A sincere love of peace is no excuse for muddling hundreds of millions of humble folks into total war. The cheers of weak, well-meaning assemblies soon cease to echo, and their votes soon cease to count. Doom marches on.”

Do I need to labour the point?

And on a lighter note,

Giant Israeli flag breaks world record for largest in world

Big Israeli Flag

Filipino entrepreneur and evangelical Christian Grace Galindez-Gupana said she decided two years ago to produce a giant Israeli flag as a testament to her love for Israel and the Jewish people, and as a celebration of 50 years of diplomatic relations between the Philippines and Israel.

“God spoke to me in thunder and lightening,” Galindez-Gupana said. “The Lord said, ‘Make the flag of Israel, the standard of my people.’”

    The recent Earth Tremors show what G-d thinks about this upcoming peace negotiation.

    The Earth Literally quakes at the prospect of Israel giving up territory.

    It must be so cool to have G-d talk you your people so directly as G-d does.

    I am not pro-war but the reason I am one that doesn’t seek peace is because I have seen historically that when one seeks peace only war is to be found.
