Dear Friends, Here is some news that you won't get on the BBC but is interesting nevertheless.

Dear Friends

Here is some news that you won't get on the BBC but is interesting nevertheless.  

I don't expect Merkel and her EU lackeys understand Genesis 12:3, God's word to Abraham,

"And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." 
or Isaiah 2:1-3 which reads

1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
The time is at hand.  

Now to my first piece of news, to be understood in the light of the above scriptures.

(1) Amid already-tense relations between the two countries, Israel is now accusing Germany of enabling the passing of an anti-Israel UNESCO resolution. 
Israeli officials are blaming Germany for leading an effort to push forward an upcoming resolution by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) that rejects Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem.

Germany has apparently garnered support among European countries for a revised resolution, submitted by Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar and Sudan. With the European Union countries now expected to vote in favour, the resolution is almost certain to pass.

The initial draft text, introduced by Arab states in March, opposes Israeli control over its capital by declaring that “any actions taken by Israel, the Occupying Power, to impose its laws, jurisdiction, and administration on the City of Jerusalem, are illegal and therefore null and void and have no validity whatsoever.”

While recognizing “the importance of the Old City of Jerusalem and its walls for the three monotheistic religions,” it reportedly calls to reaffirm prior texts referencing the sites only by their Muslim names.

The members of UNESCO’s executive board are expected to vote on the resolution on Tuesday, which falls this year on Israel’s Independence Day.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cancelled  last week with German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel, who had insisted on keeping his appointment with two anti-Israel NGOs during his visit to the Jewish state.
