THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN VS. THE KINGDOM OF GOD

Brief Overview of the Two Kingdoms:
The Kingdom of Heaven (Ouranos)  – a physical, literally, earthly kingdom; just as 
heaven is physical, so is this kingdom.  Only found in Matthew’s Gospel (33 times) 
because it is a Jewish Gospel emphasizing the Son of Man and the literal, physical, 
earthly kingdom; Reign over the physical realm, preached only to the Jews and will be 
preached again by Jews during the tribulation. The kingdom of heaven is not referring to 
the third heaven. 


The Kingdom of God (Theos) – a spiritual kingdom, just like God is a Spirit (John 4:24), 
so is this kingdom. Found throughout the New Testament emphasizing the Son of God 
and a spiritual kingdom. Reign over the Spiritual Realm You enter the kingdom of God 
by the new birth (John 3:3-5). The kingdom of God is you in the Holy Ghost and the 
Holy Ghost in you, Christ in you and you in Christ.


*Though the exact phrases “kingdom of heaven” and “kingdom of God”  do not occur 
until the New Testament, both kingdoms existed in the past. They both began at the 
creation of heaven and earth.
*Currently the devil has authority over the kingdoms of the earth (Luke 4:6-7, 2 
Corinthians 4:4).
*Romans 11:28-30 The gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
*Both kingdoms were at hand during the Lord’s earthly ministry (Matthew 3:2, 4:17, 
Mark 1:14-15).

Kingdom of Heaven

Luke 1:30-33 and Isaiah 9:6-7 The twofold work: Reinstating the kingdom back to Israel 

(physical) 

John 18:36 NOW his kingdom is not from here

Acts 1:1-12 Restore AGAIN the kingdom to Israel (obviously not referring to a spiritual 

kingdom but an earthly kingdom) 

Isaiah 41:2 Abraham was given the nations to him and the Lord made him rule over 

kings

Only preached to the Jews (Matthew 10:5-7, Matthew 15:22-28), preached again during 

the tribulation (Matthew 24:14).

Matthew 11:11-12 The kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by 

force

The Lord Jesus Christ will reign from Jerusalem over all the earth (Matthew 5:34-35)

Matthew 6:10 Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth (see also Job 38:33)

Daniel 2:36-45 (the king of Babylon was called king of kings  – so is the Lord Jesus 

Christ)

Daniel 7:13-14, 18, 27-28 Earthly, visible kingdom which the saints shall possess for 

ever

Zechariah 9:9-10 Dominion over the earth

Jeremiah 23:5-6 Christ reigning on earthThe Kingdom of Heaven vs. The Kingdom of God 2

Revelation 12:5 to rule the nations

Matthew 25:31 The Son of man and his throne of glory on earth

Kingdom of God

Matthew 1:20-21 The twofold work: Sin issue (spiritual)

Luke 17:20-21 and Colossians 1:26-27 Within you

Romans 14:17 You in him

Matthew 21:33-44 Kingdom of God given to the Gentiles to provoke the Jews to 

jealousy because of their rejection of Christ and the kingdom. This is a finite amount of 

time (Romans 11:25-26).

Luke 9:27 

"Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death,  till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom." -Matthew 16:28

"And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power." -Mark 9:1

"But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God." -Luke 9:27

Notice how the kingdom of Heaven is not mentioned here. It is specifically the kingdom of God or “kingdom.” 

What happened here? 

- Jesus was transfigured, face shined like the sun, raiment was white, 

countenance altered.

- Jesus talked with Moses and Elias. Both Moses and Elias appeared in glory and 

spake of his decease which he would accomplish at Jerusalem (Luke 9:30-32). 

- From these Scriptures were it talks about some seeing “kingdom”, it is NOT 

referring to the kingdom of heaven or the physical reign on Christ on earth, but 

rather the kingdom of God, the spiritual reign of God.

- Also part of what they saw was Jesus transfigured, face shining, raiment white as 

light or snow, and his countenance altered. What happens to us? (Read Daniel 

12:1-3; Revelation 19:7-8; I Corinthians 15:49, 51-53; Philippians 3:20-21)

Those who are born again (John 3:3-8), will have something very similar happen to them. This is what the Apostles saw.

Debunking Another Catholic Myth: Peter Given the Keys to the Church

Debunking Another Catholic Myth: Peter Given the Keys to the Church

taken from http://www.studiesinthebook.com/articles/keys_of_peter.pdf

Destroying Rome’s authority over the church and apostolic succession with a few verses of scripture

“And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” 
(Matthew 16:16-19)


The Roman Catholic Church teaches that Peter is the foundation of the church and that Peter was given the keys to the church. They believe Matthew 16:16-19 teaches that Jesus Christ made Peter “the supreme head of the church.” Anyone that believes what they read in the Bible knows that Christ is the head of the church (Colossians 1:15-18), not Peter. We also know that the foundation of the church is not Peter, or any of the apostles, but Jesus Christ alone (1 Corinthians 10:4, Isaiah 28:16, 1 Corinthians 3:11, 1 Peter 2:4-8). The Bible says the church is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF being the chief corner stone thereof (Ephesians 2:20-22). However this study will not focus on who or what is the foundation of the church, rather we will focus on these keys that were given unto Peter. No one can deny that Peter was given keys, but what were these keys? Did he give these keys to someone else before he died? What was given unto Peter? What authority was given unto Peter?


The Roman Catholic Church says these keys given unto Peter were  the  keys to the Church.If this interpretation is correct, that would mean Peter has authority over the church, and the  extent of authority bestowed upon Peter is relayed in the next verse which states: whatsoever Peter binds or looses on earth is what is bound or loosed in heaven. That is some pretty weighty authority. Now let me say this, I do believe and agree whole-heartedly that Peter was given the keys to the kingdom of heaven however this has nothing to do with the church, the body of Christ.


What is the kingdom of heaven? That’s a great question. If we do not understand what the kingdom of heaven is, how can we ever know what Peter had authority over? In order to understand this passage, we must figure out what the kingdom of heaven is.Now Rome assumes the kingdom of heaven is the church.  Many Protestant denominations believe the same thing. They believe the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God are the same kingdom. 


Now if you are unfamiliar with what the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God are, check out the Bible study or the audio discussion for an in-depth study on that topic. Briefly stated, the kingdom of heaven is a physical earthly Jewish kingdom that existed in the past under David, Solomon, etc and ceased to exist after the Babylonians came and destroyed Jerusalem. As the Bible says,  “The crown is fallen from our head” (Lamentations 5:16). Now “our head” is referring to the nation of Israel, not the Gentiles or the Church (the body of Christ). The kingdom of heaven belongs only to the Jew and was given only to the Jew and that was never transferred over to the church. The kingdom of heaven is what the Jews were looking for at the first coming of Christ. 


The kingdom of heaven is the kingdom of Israel headed up by God’s choice. When Jesus shows up he preaches the kingdom of heaven is at hand, that is, the kingdom of David is about to be restored. Now let me ask you this, was David’s kingdom physical or spiritual? It was a literal, physical, visible, earthly kingdom.


Check this passage out, “And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him. And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way. And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.” (Mark 11:7-10). Do you see that? They were saying the kingdom of our father David (i.e. the kingdom of heaven) was coming in the name of the Lord! That is what the Jew was looking for in the 1st century. That is what the apostles were looking for after the resurrection of Christ.


“When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? “And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” (Acts 1:6-8). Notice the words “restore again the kingdom to Israel.” This means this kingdom previously existed. Also this passage makes it clear, that this kingdom is Israel’s kingdom and does not belong to the church or the Gentiles.


Well what about Paul preaching about the kingdom of God to the Gentiles and all that? What about what Jesus said in Matthew 21:43 that the kingdom of God would be taken from the Jews and given to the Gentiles? Surely the church is a partaker of the kingdom of God? Amen, Amen you are right! The church does partake of the kingdom of God! However that has nothing to do with the physical, literal, earthly kingdom. According to scripture, the kingdom of God is spiritual and not visible ( http://mysterybabylon-watch.blogspot.com/2012/03/kingdom-of-heaven-vs.html). You see the problem is people fail to make a distinction between the two kingdoms. The problem is they don’t obey God and rightly divide the word of truth.


So lets’ get back to Matthew 16:16-19. So the Bible says Peter was given the keys to the kingdom of heaven. What does that mean? It means that Peter was given the keys to the literal,  physical,  visible,  Jewish, Davidic, earthly kingdom, which according to scripture, has nothing to do with the church! Do you see that? It’s clear. Peter was given great power and authority over something but that something is not and was not the church. Also, Peter was not the only one that ever had authority over the kingdom of heaven.


“And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the  son of Hilkiah: And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.” (Isaiah 22:20-22).


Notice Eliakim had these keys before Peter did. Now what keys did Eliakim have? It was to the house of David. That is the physical, literal, earthly, Jewish, visible kingdom headed up by God’s choice. He had the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Eliakim’s keys had nothing to do with the church and he had the same keys that Peter had! You need to get that. Notice the similar language compared to Matthew 16:16-19, “he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.” Peter had the authority to open and shut up the kingdom of heaven (which has nothing to do with the church). For further confirmation go to Galatians 2:


But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.” (Galatians 2:7-9). The gospel of circumcision committed to Peter was the gospel of the kingdom of heaven. He had the power to open up or shut up the kingdom of heaven for the Jew. Whatsoever he would bound would be bound in heaven and whatsoever he would loose would be loosed on earth.


Did you know Jesus Christ could have come back if the nation repented? 


“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.” (Acts 3:19-21). 


You see that? If the nation repented as a whole and was converted (born-again), the Lord would have sent unto them Jesus Christ! Through Peter’s preaching God was given the circumcision a second chance to get it right and receive and enter into the kingdom of heaven: but they would not. So from 30 AD to 70 AD God gave the Jews 40 years to repent and believe the gospel of the kingdom of heaven. If the nation as a whole did so, Jesus Christ would have come back to earth. This is similar to the Jews wandering around for 40 years in the wilderness when they didn’t have to. But because of their unbelief they could not enter in. So because the Jews continued to reject Christ and the Holy Ghost, they could not enter into the kingdom of heaven because of unbelief (See Hebrews 3-4). So after 40 years, God destroys the Temple and Jerusalem and scatters to the Jews to the four corners of the earth and the kingdom of heaven is postponed indefinitely.


Look at Revelation 3:7:


“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth.” Look who has the keys to the kingdom of heaven now? So much for apostolic succession, huh? By the time John writes the book of Revelation (around 90 AD), Jesus Christ takes back the keys that he gave to Peter. The kingdom of heaven can no longer be brought in, it is postponed, and now God is focusing all his attention on calling out of the Gentiles a people for his name.


We have seen from scripture that the keys to the kingdom of heaven have absolutely nothing to do with the church. These keys deal with the earthly, Jewish, Davidic, kingdom. This is what Peter had authority over. He was given by God the gospel of the circumcision to preach unto the Jew (the kingdom of heaven). Through Peter’s preaching, if the nation as a whole repented, Jesus Christ could have returned back then. But they did not, so by the time John writes Revelation, the keys to the kingdom of heaven go back to Jesus Christ and the kingdom of heaven is postponed indefinitely and cannot be brought in by anyone besides the Lord Jesus Christ himself. Therefore the keys given to Peter have not been passed down in an unbroken line of succession, as Rome says, thus destroying with a verse of scripture the devilish doctrine of apostolic succession.

Paul Did Not Preach A Different Gospel To The Other Apostles

( Note: I have seen many Atheists, Apostates and Muslims attacking the bible by basing themselves on misinterpretation about the Apostle Paul. Paul was never a False Apostle.)


"Another false idea is that Paul’s Gospel was different from that preached by the other Apostles. This view claims Paul preached a different Gospel because he refers to his message as “my gospel” (see Romans 2:16 and 2 Timothy 2:8) and in Galatians 1:11-12 he stresses he did not receive it from man but by divine revelation.


Another wrong view teaches that the other Apostles preached a partly legalistic version of the Gospel in the early period from the Day of Pentecost up until the time recorded in Acts Chapter 15. This latter view claims because Peter mentioned repentance as an accompaniment of receiving salvation through Christ in Acts 2:38-39 and 3:19-20 that this was a different Gospel from the one Paul later preached.


Such claims are misleading. Acts 15:1-34, Galatians 2:1-10 and 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 show Paul and the other Apostles agreed they all preached the same Gospel. 2 Peter 3:15-16 reveals the Apostle Peter totally approved of what Paul preached and wrote in Paul’s Biblical letters. The Apostle Paul also preached repentance as a part of the Gospel of grace in Christ Jesus (see Acts 17:30, 20:21, 26:15-20 and Romans 2:4).


Such ideas about Paul’s supposed different Gospel are similar to saying that because the Apostle John not once mentioned the word “Gospel” in the Book of John, 1 John, 2 John and 3 John, then this means John did not believe in the Gospel taught by the other Apostles and instead had his own form of teaching. John uses other Biblical expressions which mean similar things to the Gospel. For example, John spoke of grace in John 1:14, 16 and 17 and the kingdom of God in John 3:1-8.


Even though the various New Testament writers wrote with their individual styles and vocabulary, the Holy Spirit inspired them all (see 2 Timothy 3:16). They all preached one Gospel in differing ways. Paul brings out more fully the details and practical implications of the Gospel than do the Books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter and Jude."


"Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)" -Galatians 1:1

Pallywood (Palestinian staged footage) Exposed

"Pallywood is the term we coined to designate a Palestinian film industry that systematically stages scenes of Palestinian injury and evacuation on the one hand, and “resistance” on the other.  The resulting propaganda footage, designed to “frame” the conflict as the brave Palestinian David fighting the cruel Israeli Goliath, is then passed on to the news media which fails to spot (or ignores) the staging, edits it into the most believable “sight-bytes” and presents it to their audiences as “real news.” 


"....a close analysis of this material defies all expectations of what such footage should resemble, and suggest that Palestinian photographers do not at all share the same production and journalistic values espoused by a free press. We leave the experience and the judgment to you:"


-From Seconddraft.org

Boy running away from Israelis with what looks like a Molotov cocktail and blood on his forehead, gets carried by runners past photographers back in front of Israeli position into ambulance.

Palestinian man pretends he is shot, there is no blood and he is laid down on his "Injured leg" by the paramedics.

Lengthy sequence behind a factory in Netzarim, out of view of Israelis, filming action sequences, including spraying an empty room with bullets.

"In this segment, you see a staged funeral that the Palestinians organized in order to increase the number of the Palestinians killed in Jenin. This footage was filmed three days ago, on April 28, 2002 at around 19:00 and it is very clear and easy to see that the body has apparently "resurrected" and that the whole funeral is actually one big charade."

This documentary, a continuation of the earlier "Pallywood", examines the circumstances surrounding the shooting of the explosive footage about Muhamed al Durah and his father Jamal at Netzarim Junction, September 30, 2000.

Gaza Beach Tragedy Documentary: On 6/9/06, explosion on a Gaza beach killed a family. Palestinians and MSM blamed Israel, showing Huda Ghalia grieving wildly. What happened? A grotesque exploitation of grief.

Al-Jazeera's reports of a recent mosque burning in the West Bank allegedly by Israeli 'settlers' is a fake. The same video and photos were used to portray another mosque burning in the West bank in May 2010. I wonder how many more reports of 'burned' mosques would turn out to be the same one?

This photograph has unfortunately become common on pro-'Palestinian' websites (see this, for example). It is being promoted as a picture of an IDF soldier trampling on a 'Palestinian' child. The uniform is not an IDF (Israel Defense Forces) uniform, the boots aren't IDF boots and the weapon is a Russian issue AK-47 - the IDF uses American-made M-16's.

Pallywood (Palestinian Hollywood) is pure propaganda and one should ask, why the need to lie?

Israel Seizes Syrian Ship Bringing Iranian Weapons To Gaza (March 15 2011)

This is an Article from http://grendelreport.posterous.com/ and is about the Victoria affair (March 15 2011) when Iranian weapons were found in the ship M/V Victoria, a German-owned vessel, operated by a French company, and flying the Liberian flag.


Overview

1. On the morning of March 15, 2011, 200 miles (108 nautical miles) west of Israel's coast, an IDF navy force inspected the cargo ship M/V Victoria. The ship was sailing from the Syrian port of Latakia to the Turkish port of Mersin, and from there would continue to the Egyptian port of Alexandria.


2. The Victoria was carrying containers holding some 50 tons of weapons destined for the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip. The weapons were in three containers, concealed behind bales of cotton and sacks of lentils. There were 60 mm and 120 mm mortar shells, C-704 anti-ship missiles, and ammunition for Kalashnikov assault rifles. Most of the weapons, including the C-704 missiles, were manufactured in Iran.

3. It was the first time anti-ship missiles were captured, destined for the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip. They would have endangered Israeli military and civilian vessels as well as Israeli strategic targets in the Ashdod-Ashqelon region at a range of the missiles is 35 kilometers (19 nautical miles). They were accompanied by instruction manuals written in Farsi. On the covers were the emblems of Iran and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, proof of the source of the weapons and of the Revolutionary Guards' Al-Quds Force's involvement in the attempted smuggling with the collaboration of Syria and the Palestinian terrorist organizations.

Weapons found aboard the M/V Victoria

Overview

10. The three containers found aboard the M/V Victoria held approximately fifty tons of weapons. According to the initial count, they were the following:


1) 230 120 mm mortar shells manufactured in Iran accompanied by a range table.


2) 2,270 M-61 60 mm mortar shells accompanied by a range table. According to the table the type of fuse involved was the AZ111-A2, developed and manufactured by Iran.


3) Six C-704 anti-ship missiles manufactured in Iran, two naval radars and operating stations for the anti-ship missiles.

Prominent among the weapons were six C-704 anti-ship missiles, manufactured in Iran based on Chinese technology. The missiles were stamped "Nasser," their Iranian name. They use a radar homing system and have a range of 35 kilometers (20 nautical miles). They missiles are light and easy to fire. Their possession by the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip would have endangered Israeli naval and civilian vessels, as well as ships arriving at the port of Ashdod and strategic targets in the area.

4) 66,960 7.62 caliber bullets for Kalashnikov assault rifles.


5) Instruction manuals in Farsi and range cards for operating the systems.



11. Prominent among the weapons were six C-704 anti-ship missiles, manufactured in Iran based on Chinese technology. The missiles were stamped "Nasser," their Iranian name. They use a radar homing system and have a range of 35 kilometers (20 nautical miles). They missiles are light and easy to fire. Their possession by the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip would have endangered Israeli naval and civilian vessels, as well as ships arriving at the port of Ashdod and strategic targets in the area.

12. The missiles were accompanied by instruction manuals written in Farsi. The emblems of Iran and the Revolutionary Guards appeared (on the front cover). According to the range cards, the fuses for the 60 mm mortar shells are AZ111-A2, developed in accordance with the requirements of the Iranian army and manufactured in Iran (Jane's Ammunition Handbook). The missiles were accompanied by accessories such as traverse, elevation, monitoring and control systems.

The M/V Victoria  and its route

13. The M/V Victoria  belongs to the German company Peter Döhle Schiffahrts-KG and is operated by the French shipping company CMA-CGM. It set sail from the Syrian port of Latakia and its final destination was the Egyptian port of Alexandria. It had a stopover at the south Turkey port of Mersin


14. The ship was constructed to transport containers and was built in 2004. It is owned by Peter Döhle Schiffahrts-KG, Hamburg, which has been in operation since 1956. It is operated by the French shipping company CMA-CGM and flies the Liberian flag.


15. The French CMA-CGM is the third largest company shipping cargo in the world and the largest in France. It owns 396 ships and sails 170 different routes and has 650 agencies and offices around the globe. Its directors are Rudolf Saadé (born in 1970), son of the founder, Jacques Saadé (born in Beirut in 1937), and Farid Salem (born in Beirut in 1939 (CMA-CGM website).


16. The M/V Victoria  was not the first CMA-CGM vessel exploited by Iran to smuggle arms. In October 2010 the Nigerian security forces exposed a cargo of 13 containers of weapons aboard the M/V Everest, which sailed from Iran to the Nigerian port of Apapa in July and was en route to Gambia. The ship belonged to the Iranian Behineh Trading Company, apparently connected to a Quds Force operative (who was later arrested in Nigeria) and was operated by the French CMA-CGM, flying the flag of the Marshall Islands.

Conflict in Gaza: "Palestinians" fire rockets at civilians and use their own civilians as human shields

    Israel's unilateral disengagement plan (Hebrew: תוכנית ההתנתקות‎ Tokhnit HaHitnatkut or תוכנית ההינתקות Tokhnit HaHinatkut in the Disengagement Plan Implementation Law), also known as the "Disengagement plan", "Gaza expulsion plan", and "Hitnatkut", was a proposal by Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, adopted by the government on June 6, 2004 and enacted in August 2005, to evict all Israelis from the Gaza Strip and from four settlements in the northern West Bank.

a victory march wielding weapons

Those Israeli citizens who refused to accept government compensation packages and voluntarily vacate their homes prior to the August 15, 2005 deadline, were evicted by Israeli security forces over a period of several days.  The eviction of all residents, demolition of the residential buildings and evacuation of associated security personnel from the Gaza Strip was completed by September 12, 2005.  The eviction and dismantlement of the four settlements in the northern West Bank was completed ten days later.

The Gaza Strip is a coastal strip of land on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea bordering Egypt and Israel. Israel controls Gaza's airspace and territorial waters and restricts the movement of people or goods in or out of Gaza. Israel maintains that its occupation of Gaza, as defined by Article 6 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, ended following the completion of its unilateral disengagement plan in 2005, asserting that Israel has no functions of government in the Gaza Strip.


January 2006 legislative elections brought Hamas to power of Palestinian National Authority. In 2007, Hamas overthrew Fatah (President of the Palestinian National Authority Mahmoud Abbas´s political party)

All the Palestinian armed groups carry out rocket and mortar attacks, with varying frequency. The main groups are Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine,   the Popular Resistance Committees,  Fatah (Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority´s own political party), and the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Hamas is the de-facto governing authority in the Gaza Strip, while Fatah holds the presidency of the Palestinian National Authority. 

    Islamic Jihad has involved other Palestinians in the activities, running summer camps where children were taught how to hold a Qassam rocket launcher. One Islamic Jihad rocket maker, Awad al-Qiq, was a science teacher and headmaster at a United Nations school.


The Palestinian missile attacks on Israel fueled the Gaza War (2008-2009).


The Missile Attacks began in 2001. Since then, nearly 4,800 rockets have hit southern Israel, just over 4,000 of them since Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip in August 2005. The range of the rockets has increased over time. The original Qassam rocket has a range of about 10 km (6.2 mi) but more advanced rockets, including versions of the old Soviet Grad or Katyusha have hit Israeli targets 40 km (25 mi) from Gaza.


In July 2006, a ranking member of Fatah's al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in the West Bank said his group had the ability to produce rockets in the northern West Bank and that major Israeli cities as well as Ben Gurion International Airport would eventually become Palestinian rocket targets. "Every day our rockets in Gaza become more accurate and do more killing and this is exactly what will happen in the West Bank", he said.


Israeli armed forces began operations against Hamas and the rocket launchers at 11:30 a.m., 27 December. More than 50 fighter jets and attack helicopters entered Gazan airspace.  Israel aimed at Hamas Military targets. Hamas later responded by firing Hamas later fired 700 rockets and mortars at Israel. After the initial Israeli aerial assault, Hamas quickly dispersed both its personnel and weapons and equipment. 

The strike range of Hamas rockets had increased from 16 km (9.9 mi) to 40 km (25 mi) since early 2008 with the use of improved Qassam and factory-made rockets. hese attacks resulted in civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure. Rockets reached major Israeli cities Ashdod, Beersheba and Gedera for the first time, putting one-eighth of Israel's population in rocket range. As of January 13, 2009, Palestinian militants had launched approximately 565 rockets and 200 mortars at Israel since the beginning of the conflict, according to Israeli security sources.  

Hamas Militant firing a Rocket and using boys as human shield

A source close to Hamas described the movement's use of stealth when firing: "They fired rockets in between the houses and covered the alleys with sheets so they could set the rockets up in five minutes without the planes seeing them. The moment they fired, they escaped, and they are very quick."  It is reported that 102 rockets and 35 mortars were fired by Fatah, Hamas's chief rival. Fatah (President Mahmoud Abbas´s party) was also firing Rockets at Israel. Militants fired over 750 rockets and mortars from Gaza into Israel during the conflict.

While Israel targeted Hamas Commanders and Military personnel, Hamas and other Palestinian Militants targeted Civilians. Some Hamas leaders hid in the basements of the Shifa Hospital complex in Gaza City in the belief that they would be protected by human shields. (Amos Harel, Hamas leaders hiding in basement of Israel-built hospital in Gaza Haaretz, 12 January 2009). The Israeli Air strike destroyed Mosques and the homes of Hamas Commanders as weapons were stored there (see the picture on the right), Hamas targeted Synagogues and Schools (like the Kindergarten classroom on the picture on the left). 

Hamas co-founder Mahmoud Zahar has said that the goal of the attacks is to force mass migration in Israel and disrupt the daily life of its citizens. Explaining why his group had moved from suicide bombing to rocket attacks, he said:


"Which do you think is more effective, martyrdom operations or rockets against Sderot? Rockets against Sderot will cause mass migration, greatly disrupt daily lives and government administration and can make a much huger impact on the government. We are using the methods that convince the Israelis that their occupation is costing them too much. We are succeeding with the rockets. We have no losses and the impact on the Israeli side is so much."


The so called "Palestinians" also pray towards the Black cube of Mecca, which represents Saturn. Saturn is also Moloch as we see here: http://mysterybabylon-watch.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-do-muslims-pray-their-backs-to.html


This system of Moloch worship is evident when the Palestinians send their own childred to be martyred, even though they think they are doing it for Allah, it is Moloch worship. Palestinian children are also used as Human Shield: 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
We see here that Yasser Arafat and the Palestinian "Liberation" movements originated from Arafat´s relative Amin Al Husseini, a Nazi who met personally with Adolf Hitler and after WWII, Hitler´s banker Francois Genoud worked in the Middle East: http://mysterybabylon-watch.blogspot.com/2011/11/amin-al-husseini-palestinian-connection.html


We see here that a man with Rothschild connections backed Amin Al Husseini up. (Rothschilds are not Jewish nor do they practice Judaism, rather they are Knights of Malta): http://mysterybabylon-watch.blogspot.com/2011/11/rothschild-nazi-and-palestinian.html

To this day "Palestinian" militants continue to fire rockets at Israel and continue to target civilians and use their own innocent civilians as human shield to later on be propagandized against the Jews of Israel (remember Francois Genoud, Hitler´s banker and many Nazi propagandists worked with Palestinian Militants).

Don´t Mess With Israel

“For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye." - Zechariah 2:8 


"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." - Genesis 12:3


What do these major record-setting events have in common? 
-Nine of the ten costliest insurance events in U.S. history 
-Six of the seven costliest hurricanes in U.S. history 
-Three of the four largest tornado outbreaks in U.S. history 
-Nine of the top ten natural disasters in U.S. history ranked by FEMA relief costs 
-The two largest terrorism events in U.S. history 


All of these major catastrophes transpired on the very same day or within 24-hours of U.S. presidents Bush, Clinton and Bush applying pressure on Israel to trade her land for promises of "peace and security," sponsoring major "land for peace" meetings,  making major public statements pertaining to Israel's covenant land and/or calling for a Palestinian state. 

October 30, 1991   As President George Bush, Sr. is opening the Madrid Conference to consider "Land for Peace" in Israel's Middle East role, the "Perfect Storm" develops in the North Atlantic, creating the largest waves ever recorded in that region. 


The storm travels 1,000 miles from East to West (instead of the normal West to East pattern) and crashes into the New England coast. Thirty five foot waves crash into the Kennebunkport home of President Bush.   

August 23, 1992   When the Madrid Conference moves to Washington D.C. and the Peace Talks resume, Hurricane Andrew, the worst natural disaster ever to hit America , comes ashore producing an estimated $30 billion in damage and leaving 108,000 homeless in Florida .   

January 16, 1994     President Bill Clinton meets with Syria 's President Hafez el-Assad in Geneva   . They talk about a peace agreement with Israel that includes giving up the   Golan Heights . Within 24 hours a powerful (6.9 on the Richter scale) earthquake   rocks Southern California . The Northridge earthquake becomes the second most   destructive natural disaster to hit the United States , behind Hurricane Andrew. 


January 21, 1998   Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu meets with President Clinton at the White House and is coldly received. Clinton and Secretary of State Madeline Albright refuse to have lunch with him. Shortly afterwards on that day, the Monica Lewinski scandal breaks into the mass media.   

September 28, 1998       Secretary of State Albright works on the final details of an agreement in which Israel would give up 13% of Judea and Samaria . Hurricane George, with winds of 110mph gusting up to 175mph, slams into the United States Gulf Coast . Hurricane George stalls. Clinton meets with Arafat and Netanyahu at the White House to finalize this land deal. Later Arafat addresses the United Nations about declaring an independent Palestinian state by May 1999. Hurricane George pounds the Gulf Coast causing $1 billion in damage. At the exact time Arafat departs the country, the storm starts to dissipate.   

October 15-22, 1998       Arafat and Natanyahu meet at the Wye River Plantation in Maryland . The talks are scheduled to last five days with a focus on Israel giving up 13% of Judea and Samaria . The talks are extended and conclude on October 23rd. On October 17th awesome rains and tornados hit Sothern Texas . The rain and flooding in Texas continue until October 22nd and then subside. The floods ravage 25% of Texas and leave over $1 billion in damage. On October 21, Clinton declares this section of Texas a major disaster area.   


November 30, 1998       Arafat comes to Washington again to meet with President Clinton to raise money for a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as the capital. A total of 42 other nations were represented in Washington . All agreed to give Arafat $3 billion in aid. Clinton promised $400 million and the European nations $1.7 billion. On the same day, the Dow Jones average drops 216 points, and on December 1, the European Market had its worst day in history. Hundreds of billions of market capitalization were wiped out in U.S. and Europe .   

December 12, 1998   Clinton lands in the Palestinian-controlled section of Israel to discuss the "land for peace" process. The House of Representatives votes four articles of impeachment against Clinton .   


May 3, 1999   The day Yasser Arafat is scheduled to declare a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital the most powerful tornado storm system ever to hit the United States sweeps across Oklahoma and Kansas . Winds are clocked at 316mph, the fastest wind speed ever recorded. The declaration is postponed to December 1999 at the request of Clinton , whose letter to Arafat encourages him in his "aspirations for his own land." He also writes that the Palestinians have a right to "determine their own future on their own land" and that they deserve to "live free today, tomorrow and forever."   

October 11, 1999   Jewish settlers in 15 " West Bank " ( Israel ) settlements are evicted from the covenant land in Israel . Dow Jones financial averages loses 5.7% in the worst week since October 1989. On October 15 the Dow lost 266 points. A hurricane slams into North Carolina . Next morning, October 16, a magnitude 7.1 earthquake rocks the Southwest in the fifth most powerful earthquake in the 20th century. The earthquake was centered in the California desert and did little damage but it was felt in three states.   

August 2005   Jewish families were evicted from their homes in the Gaza communities as part of Ariel Sharon's "Disengagement" plan. This disengagement was a response to the American Foreign Policy pressure being exerted by Condoleeza Rice. As the world watched the Jews being removed from their homes, a weather system was forming in the Atlantic . 

This storm became Hurricane Katrina, which destroyed New Orleans , Louisiana (Miss Rice's home state) and an area the size of Britain , rendering thousands of Americans homeless and leaving thousands dead. Hurricane Katrina also spoiled the "Southern Decadence" weekend planned by the homosexual community for New Orleans and supported by the mayor of New Orleans . By September 7th, further parallels were becoming apparent. The Mayor of New Orleans, having been heavily criticized for ineffectiveness has ordered troops (local people) and police to evacuate all residents who refuse to leave. The police chief has expressed reservations about tackling defiant householders as it would be a "PR disaster."
