Leading from Love

There is one G-d, and one G-d only He took the Israelites out of Egypt G-d brought the ten plagues on Egypt, not an angel G-d brought the Israelites out of Egypt, not a seraph G-d split the Sea, not Moses G-d, in His infinite glory, performed all these wonders Himself Yet the Israelites rebelled, worshiped a golden calf G-d was angry, intended to write their epitaph But Moses defended his beloved people before the Lord Who did an about-face and lay down His sword We all want a leader, like Moshe, who loves us Unlike leaders today, who throw us under the bus

Very well said. There are many in the world who hate Israel and their desire is to destroy it. Some with Israel and others on the outside.

well said, Gershon, and I agree. We don't need leaders who throw us under the bus...those that do, who sell us out for power, etc., are not 'true' leaders in my book...

Seems that our last three presidents, B.O. Yellow-hair and Robin, will throw us under the bus at the first opportunity. Greed and power have come to define 'leadership' in America, esp. now that Mitch McConnell, the last of his generation, has called it quits. ~ My thoughts, anyway.
