Gershon, your reply to Bill made me think of 'a hook in a jaw' from Ezekiel 38. It makes me wonder if what is happening now the beginning of that? It seems like it. It is bad, horrible! But reading that verse reminds me, we read the Book, and we know the Author, He will do as He has promised. A toast to peace, God will make His enemies toast, He has promised, and there will be peace one day. Many people say Gog is Russia, sounds like Putin to me, Is he behind these terror operatives? Just curious, I'm not a Bible scholar, just really wondering!

You've nailed it, Bj. Putin is behind all of it. Iran doesn't make a move without his approval. And Iran's proxies don't either. A lot of people just don't get that. If we could eliminate Putin, the whole dynamic would shift. A Big If, that...

One good thing about the Monoku besides, it's short, straight to the point. I like this one, very true and very sad. Bill

Never known so much conflict as there is now. Greed, power and religion are the main causes, mankind never learns. Tom

And any other excuse that fits their agenda. Shame though it's always the innocent who suffer.

How about Greed, Power, and Land. Religion, methinks, is just a cover for those three... ~ Just sayin'
