REVELATION 12:1-17 (SATAN BOOTED TO EARTH - GREATEST PERSECUSSION OF ISRAEL EVER)
1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 And his tail (SATANS)drew the third part of the stars of heaven,(1/3RD OF ANGELS FELL WITH SATAN AT THE FALL WHO ARE DEMONIC FALLIN ANGELS-DEMONS) and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman (ISRAEL) which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.(SATANS LAST HOLOCAUST TO TRY TO DESTROY ISRAEL FOREVER)
5 And she brought forth a man child,(MARY DID-JESUS WHO IS(JEWISH) who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
6 And the woman (MARY WHOS JEWISH REPRESENTING ISRAEL)fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.(3 1/2 YRS PROTECTED IN PETRA JORDAN)
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.(SATAN-DEMONS KICKED OUT OF THE HEAVENS-CAN ONLY DESTROY ON THE EARTH NOW.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.(BY BEHEADING)
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.(EARTH AND THE SEA-TORNADOES,HURRICANES,TSUNAMIS,POISON WATERS ETC)
13 And when the dragon (SATAN) saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman (MARY) which brought forth the man child. (JESUS IS JEWISH)(ISRAEL PERSECUTED THE WORST IN HISTORY YET)
14 And to the woman (ISRAEL) were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time,(3 1/2 YRS) from the face of the serpent.(PROTECTED FOR 3 1/2 YRS IN PETRA JORDAN)

'Instead of walking you down the aisle, we are walking with you to your graves'Yaron Lischinsky, Sarah Milgrim named as victims of Washington, DC, shooting-Both victims were embassy employees, who were about to get engaged; couple worked and advocated for Israeli-Arab coexistence By Zev Stub,ToI Staff and JTA Today, 12:24 pm-MAY 22,25

Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim were named on Thursday morning as the victims of the Wednesday night shooting at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC.Lischinsky and Milgrim were both employees at the Israeli Embassy in Washington. According to Israeli Ambassador to the US Yechiel Leiter, the two were about to be engaged and Lischinsky had purchased a ring this week with the intent to propose next week in Jerusalem.Tal Naim Cohen, a spokesperson for the embassy, said the two were shot at close range while attending a Jewish event at the museum.“Yaron and Sarah, Words cannot begin to describe the heartbreak and sorrow. Just this morning, we were still laughing together by the coffee corner — and now, all that remains is a picture,” she wrote in a later post.“Instead of walking you down the aisle, we are walking with you to your graves. What an unbearable loss,” she said.Lischinsky, 28, moved to Israel from Germany at the age of 16. He moved to the US in September 2022 to work in the political department of the Israeli Embassy in Washington.According to the bio on his Times of Israel blog, Lischinsky had a master’s degree in Government, Diplomacy & Strategy from Reichman University and a bachelor’s in International Relations from Hebrew University.He wrote on his LinkedIn page: “I’m an ardent believer in the vision that was outlined in the Abraham Accords and believe that expanding the circle of peace with our Arab neighbors and pursuing regional cooperation is in the best interest of the State of Israel and the Middle East as a whole. To this end, I advocate for interfaith dialogue and intercultural understanding.”Milgrim worked in the public diplomacy department at the embassy. She held a master’s degree in international studies from American University and an additional master’s degree in natural resources and sustainable development from the United Nations University of Peace.“My passion lies at the intersection of peacebuilding, religious engagement, and environmental work,” Milgram wrote on her LinkedIn page. “While working with Tech2Peace in Tel Aviv, Israel, I conducted comprehensive research on peacebuilding theory, emphasizing grassroots initiatives in the Israeli-Palestinian region”“My diverse experiences, including facilitating insightful discussions on geopolitics in Israel and Palestine as a Jewish Educator, and researching an array of environmental topics in India and Central America, reflect my commitment to fostering understanding between different peoples,” she wrote.Milgrim grew up in the Kansas City suburbs and was a teenager when a white supremacist shot and killed three people at Jewish institutions in that city. In her senior year of high school, she was active in responding after swastikas were painted at her high school. “I worry about going to my synagogue and now I have to worry about safety at my school and that shouldn’t be a thing,” she told a local news station at the time.The embassy wrote on X that “Yaron and Sarah were our friends and colleagues. They were in the prime of their lives. This evening, a terrorist shot and killed them as they exited an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in DC.”“The entire embassy staff is heartbroken and devastated by their murder. No words can express the depth of our grief and horror at this devastating loss. Our hearts are with their families, and the embassy will be by their side during this terrible time.”The embassy shared a photo of the couple together that Lischinsky had posted on Twitter this month. It appeared to have been taken during an event at the embassy to mark Israel’s 77th Independence Day.The two were killed Wednesday night as they were leaving an event at the Capital Jewish Museum when the suspect approached a group of four people and opened fire, Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith said at a news conference.The suspect, identified as Elias Rodriguez, 30, of Chicago, was observed pacing outside the museum before the shooting.He walked into the museum after the shooting and was detained by event security, Smith said.When he was taken into custody, Rodriguez chanted, “Free, free Palestine,” Smith said. Smith said law enforcement did not believe there was an ongoing threat to the community.The shooting was widely condemned by Israeli, US and world leaders as a despicable antisemitic crime, with the US vowing to prosecute the shooter to the full extent of the law.

'Our community is holding each other tighter tonight'-Pain, anger for US Jews at killings of Israel Embassy staffers, amid ‘a relentless campaign of hate’ADL says Jews will not be cowed or intimidated amid spiraling rise in antisemitism since October 7 massacre and Gaza war; Betar urges US Jews to move to Israel-By Zev Stub-Today, 12:04 pm-MAY 22,25

The American Jewish community reacted with a mix of a mix of pain, anger, and shock after the killing of two Israeli Embassy staff members outside a Jewish museum in Washington, DC late Wednesday night.Yaron Lischinsky, 28, and Sarah Milgrim were gunned down after leaving an event at the Capital Jewish Museum put on by the American Jewish Committee (AJC) for young diplomats. The couple was set to travel next week to Jerusalem to get engaged and Lischinsky had recently purchased a ring, according to Israeli Ambassador to the US Yechiel Leiter.Police said the suspect, Elias Rodriguez, 30, of Chicago, yelled, “Free, free Palestine” after he was arrested.The attack was the latest in a relentless trend of growing antisemitism around the US since Hamas launched its war against Israel with a savage assault on October 7, 2023. A record 9,354 antisemitic cases of harassment, vandalism, and assault were recorded in the US in 2024, translating to more than one every hour, the Anti-Defamation League recently reported.Following the shooting, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt spoke out defiantly, saying the Jewish community would not be cowed or silenced.“This shooting strikes a nerve because it comes after an unrelenting, ongoing campaign of hate and harassment targeting the Jewish community simply because of who we are and what we believe,” he wrote on X.“What they fail to grasp is that we will not be intimidated,” he continued. “We will not be silenced. We will not cower or quiver or shake. Without a doubt, we will mourn and we will grieve and then we will press on with renewed determination and resolve. We will fight for our rights. We will defend our beliefs. We will protect our community, now and forever.”Other major organizations expressed horror and grief over the attack.“We are devastated that two cherished friends and partners from the Israeli embassy were shot and killed as they left an AJC event at the Capital Jewish Museum earlier this evening,” said AJC CEO Ted Deutch. “This is a shocking act of violence, and our community is holding each other tighter tonight.”“At this painful moment, we mourn with the victims’ families, loved ones, and all of Israel. May their memories be for a blessing,” Deutch said.Meanwhile, the Jewish Federations of North America said it was “horrified” by the murder, and was working closely with security partners in the area to monitor the situation and keep Jewish communities informed.“The safety and security of the community is our top priority, and we will not rest until that safety is fully restored,” the organization said.‘Globalize the intifada’Several organizations focused on fighting antisemitism issued stronger condemnations.“This murder didn’t happen in a vacuum, but is the direct result of the incessant hatred by those who call to ‘Globalize the Intifada.’ For those who wondered about the context of whether a particular chant was hate speech or antisemitic, this is what it looks like when physically manifested,” the Combat Antisemitism Movement said in a statement. “We have warned about the growing violence of the far-left, and now it seems that our deepest fears have come true.”Calls to globalize the intifada have been a frequent refrain at anti-Israel rallies across US campuses. The chants referred to periods of deadly Palestinian terror attacks against Israeli civilians in the late 1980s and early 1990s and again in the early 2000s, including widespread suicide bombings, in which over a thousand Israelis were killed.The far-right Betar US movement called on the US to respond to the attack by deporting illegal pro-Hamas agitators around the US, a move US President Donald Trump has floated and a cause Betar US has been aggressively promoting.“Sadly, as we mourn this loss, we remind Jews that Aliyah [immigrating to Israel] is the best solution,” Betar added.More Jewish community leaders are expected to react after daybreak in the US.Both victims were outspoken advocates for peacebuilding, interfaith dialogue, and intercultural understanding in the Middle East.Lischinky, 28, was a research assistant for Middle East & North African Affairs at the Israeli Embassy’s Political Department in Washington, DC. He moved to Israel from Germany at the age of 16. He moved to the US in September 2022 to work at the embassy.Milgrim, a US native, worked in the public diplomacy department at the embassy and held a master’s degree in international studies from American University and an additional master’s degree in natural resources and sustainable development from the United Nations University of Peace.

US university bans student for commencement speech calling to divest from Israel-Speaker at George Washington graduation urges alumni not to donate, decries Gaza ‘genocide’; DC school apologizes for ‘inappropriate’ speech that strayed from approved text By Andrew Lapin Today, 12:05 pm-MAY 22,25

JTA — George Washington University said recently that it will ban a student commencement speaker from campus after she used her graduation speech to decry “genocide” in Gaza and urged her graduating class not to donate to the school until it agrees to divest from Israel.Pro-Israel students and alumni had urged the school to discipline the speaker and a dean who thanked her for “sharing your words and your views.” The dean’s profile no longer appears on GWU’s website.It is at least the second prestigious university this season to take disciplinary action against a student commencement speaker for remarks related to Israel. New York University said it would withhold the diploma of a speaker there who denounced “genocide” and “atrocities currently happening in Palestine” in his speech last week.GWU apologized and announced an investigation after Cecilia Culver made the comments while addressing the school’s liberal arts college on Saturday.The next day, the school announced the penalty, saying Culver’s conduct “was inappropriate and dishonest” because she had delivered a different speech from the one she had submitted.The statement added that Culver “has been barred from all GW’s campuses and sponsored events elsewhere,” and that it was continuing to conduct “a thorough review” with potential additional “accountability actions” to follow.Culver had to take frequent breaks for sustained applause she received during her speech, delivered at GWU’s largest graduation ceremony.“For over a year, we have watched a genocide be committed against Palestinians,” she said, adding, “I cannot celebrate my own graduation without a heavy heart, knowing how many students in Palestine have been forced to stop their studies, expelled from their homes, and killed for simply remaining in the country of their ancestors.”She continued, “I am ashamed that my own tuition is being used to fund genocide. I’m going to say that again. I am ashamed to know that my own tuition is being used to fund this genocide.”Noting that GWU students, faculty and staff have pressed the school to “divest from the apartheid state of Israel,” Culver continued, “The administration has refused to negotiate in good faith.”She continued, “Instead, our money is put into the pockets of those who unequivocally prove, time and time again, they do not care about the students and faculty that create this university.” It was unclear who Culver was referring to.Culver also made a call for her fellow graduating class “to withhold donations and continue advocating for disclosure and divestment,” concluding, “None of us are free until Palestine is free.”Following the conclusion of her speech, one of the college’s deans, Kavita Daiya, remarked, “We represent a variety of views, and we thank you for sharing your words and your views.”Culver’s speech, and Daiya’s acknowledgement of it, touched off a protest letter purportedly signed by more than 700 GWU students, parents and alums urging the school to rescind Culver’s diploma and force Daiya to apologize.The letter-writers, whose organizers include the ardently pro-Israel groups Jews In School, Students Supporting Israel and Israel War Room, said they believed the speech was “filled with demonstrably fabricated accusations of genocide and apartheid directed at Israel” and that the dean’s comments amounted to “a dereliction of duties to return the celebration to neutrality.”“This was not merely a disruption — it was a targeted, ideologically charged tirade that desecrated what should have been a unifying academic celebration,” stated the letter, which purported to speak for “the Jewish and Israeli community.” More than one-quarter of GWU’s student body is estimated to be Jewish, according to Hillel International.Letter organizer Sabrina Soffer, a recent GWU Judaic Studies graduate who spoke at the November 2023 March for Israel in Washington, DC, said on Instagram that Culver’s speech was “filled with antisemitic commentary” and that Daiya had given an “implicit endorsement of those remarks.” Soffer’s Instagram post did not list the names of the letter’s signatories but claimed hundreds had signed.GWU’s student newspaper noted that Daiya’s profiles have since been scrubbed from the university’s websites and directory. Her LinkedIn page is also disabled. Asked for comment on Daiya, a university spokesperson directed JTA to its statement on Culver, which does not mention the dean.According to GWU’s own communications, during Culver’s time at the school the economics and statistics dual major was a recipient of a prestigious award and received an award from the Federal Reserve as part of an internship she completed.“Cecilia is in every way a distinguished scholar,” the school noted.Her actions, and the university’s response, stood out at the tail end of an academic year that has seen notably more muted campus Israel protests than the previous year amid the Trump administration’s curtailing of federal funding for higher education and rounding up of student protesters. Fearing harsh punishments, many schools have taken more aggressive measures to curtail activism, while others including Harvard University have gone on the offensive against the administration.Still, some campus activism has persisted, including in the Mid-Atlantic region where GWU is located. Police in recent days have broken up pro-Palestinian encampments at both Johns Hopkins University and Virginia Commonwealth University, and in some cases the schools have temporarily withheld diplomas from participants. Other schools including Swarthmore College have also seen encampments broken up and students arrested this month.GWU has also been one of the most intense schools for anti-Israel pro-Palestinian activism since the period immediately after the October 7 Hamas massacre that saw terrorists kill some 1,200 people in southern Israel and take 251 captives, and sparked the war in Gaza.GWU has seen activists projected messages including “Glory To Our Martyrs” onto the side of a campus building. Last year the school suspended its chapter of the anti-Zionist group Jewish Voice for Peace.Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.

Students erect pro-Palestinian encampments across major Canadian universities-By Anna Mehler Paperny-May 2, 20248:43 PM

TORONTO, May 2 (Reuters) - Quebec Premier Francois Legault said on Thursday the encampment at Montreal's McGill University should be dismantled as more students erected pro-Palestinian camps across some of Canada's largest universities, demanding they divest from groups with ties to Israel.The Canadian protests come as police have been arresting hundreds on U.S. campuses and the death toll in Gaza has been mounting.

While McGill had requested police intervention, law enforcement had not stepped in Thursday to clear the encampment and said in a statement Thursday evening it was monitoring the situation.Students also set up encampments at Canadian schools including the University of Toronto, the University of British Columbia and the University of Ottawa."We want the camp to be dismantled. We trust the police, let them do their job," a spokesperson for Legault said.There was also a pro-Israel counter-protest in Montreal Thursday. The two sides were kept separate.On Thursday morning, students at the University of Toronto set up an encampment in a fenced-off grassy space at the school's downtown campus where some 100 protesters gathered with dozens of tents.According to a statement from organizers the encampment will stay until the university discloses its investments, divests from any that "sustain Israeli apartheid, occupation and illegal settlement of Palestine" and ends partnerships with some Israeli academic institutions.Israel says it does not participate in apartheid and that its assault on Gaza does not constitute genocide.A university spokesperson told Reuters it was "in dialogue with the protesters" and that, as of midday, the encampment was "not disruptive to normal university activities."University of Toronto graduate student and encampment spokesperson Sara Rasikh told Reuters they will remain until their demands are met."If public disruption is the only way to get our voice heard, then we are willing to do that," she said.Some Jewish groups have accused protesters of being antisemitic. Organizers deny that charge, noting that some protesters are Jewish.Asked to comment on the encampments, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office pointed to a statement he made on Tuesday, saying "Universities are places of learning, they’re places for freedom of expression ... but that only works if people feel safe on campus. Right now ... Jewish students do not feel safe. That’s not right."The protests follow the deadly Oct. 7 attack on southern Israel by Hamas militants from the Gaza Strip, which killed 1,200 people and saw dozens taken hostage, and an ensuing Israeli offensive that has killed about 34,000 and created a humanitarian crisis.Reporting by Anna Mehler Paperny; Editing by David Gregorio and Diane Craft

DEATH CULT SUPPORTERS MANIFESTO ELIAS RODRIGUEZ OF ISRAEL HATE.THANKS TO ANTISEMETIC SUCK UP TO ARAB MURDERERS SCHOOLS AROUND THE WORLD.

Explication-May 20, 2025

Halintar is a word that means something like thunder or lightning. In the wake of an act people look for a text to fix its meaning, so here's an attempt. The atrocities committed by Israelis against Palestine defy description and defy quantification. Instead of reading descriptions mostly we watch them unfold on video, sometimes live. After a few months of rapidly mounting death tolls Israel had obliterated the capacity to even continue counting the dead, which has served its genocide well. At time of writing the Gaza health ministry records 53,000 killed by traumatic force, at least ten thousand lie under rubble, and who knows how many thousands more dead of preventable disease, hunger, with tens of thousands now at risk of imminent famine due to Israeli blockade, all enabled by Western and Arab government complicity. The Gaza information office includes the ten thousand under the rubble with the dead in their own count. In news reports there have been those "ten thousand" under the rubble for months now, despite the continual making of more rubble and repeated bombing of rubble again and again and the bombing of tents amid the rubble. Like the Yemen death toll which had been frozen at some few thousand for years under Saudi-UK-US bombardment before being belatedly revealed to stand at 500k dead, all of these figures are almost surely a criminal undercount. I have no trouble believing the estimates that put the toll at 100,000 or more. More have been murdered since March of this year than in "Protective Edge" and "Cast Lead" put together. What more at this point can one say about the proportion of mangled and burned and exploded human beings whom were children. We who let this happen will never deserve the Palestinians' forgiveness. They've let us know as much.An armed action is not necessarily a military action. It usually is not. Usually it is theater and spectacle, a quality it shares with many unarmed actions. Nonviolent protest in the opening weeks of the genocide seemed to signal some sort of turning point. Never before had so many tens of thousands joined the Palestinians in the streets across the West. Never before had so many American politicians been forced to concede that, rhetorically at least, the Palestinians were human beings, too. But thus far the rhetoric has not amounted to much. The Israelis themselves boast about their own shock at the free hand the Americans have given them to exterminate the Palestinians. Public opinion has shifted against the genocidal apartheid state, and the American government has simply shrugged, they'll do without public opinion then, criminalize it where they can, suffocate it with bland reassurances that they're doing all they can to restrain Israel where it cannot criminalize protest outright. Aaron Bushnell and others sacrificed themselves in the hopes of stopping the massacre and the state works to make us feel their sacrifice was made in vain, that there is no hope in escalating for Gaza and no point in bringing the war home. We can't let them succeed. Their sacrifices were not made in vain.The impunity that representatives of our government feel at abetting this slaughter should be revealed as an illusion, then. The impunity we see is the worst for those of us in immediate proximity to the genocidaires. A surgeon who treated victims of the Mayan genocide by the Guatemalan state recounts an instance in which he was operating on a patient who'd been critically injured during a massacre when, suddenly, armed gunmen entered the room and shot the patient to death on his operating table, laughing as they killed him. The physician said the worst part was seeing the killers, well known to him, openly swagger down local streets in the years after. Elsewhere a man of conscience once attempted to throw Robert McNamara off a Martha's Vineyard-bound ferry into the sea, incensed at the same impunity and arrogance he saw in that butcher of Vietnam as he sat in the ferry's lounge laughing with friends. The man took issue with McNamara's "very posture, telling you, 'My history is fine, and I can be slumped over a bar like this with my good friend Ralph here and you'll have to lump it.'" The man did not succeed in heaving McNamara off a catwalk into the water, the former secretary of state managed to cling to the railing and clamber back to his feet, but the assailant explicated the value of the attempt by saying "Well, I got him outside, just the two of us, and suddenly his history wasn't so fine, was it?"A word about the morality of armed demonstration. Those of us against the genocide take satisfaction in arguing that the perpetrators and abettors have forfeited their humanity. I sympathize with this viewpoint and understand its value in soothing the psyche which cannot bear to accept the atrocities it witnesses, even mediated through the screen. But inhumanity has long since shown itself to be shockingly common, mundane, prosaically human. A perpetrator may then be a loving parent, a filial child, a generous and charitable friend, an amiable stranger, capable of moral strength at times when it suits him and sometimes even when it does not, and yet be a monster all the same. Humanity doesn't exempt one from accountability. The action would have been morally justified taken 11 years ago during Protective Edge, around the time I personally became acutely aware of our brutal conduct in Palestine. But I think to most Americans such an action would have been illegible, would seem insane. I am glad that today at least there are many Americans for which the action will be highly legible and, in some funny way, the only sane thing to do.I love you Mom, Dad, baby sis, the rest of my familia, including you, O*****Free Palestine--Elias Rodriguez
