Israel
You've had your troubles Israel
I've seen them all
But you put the writing on the wall
Israel Israel yeah
You know I've seen you fall so many times
I've cried for you and that's a crime
Israel Israel Israel
Where there's sand
Where there's beautiful sand yeah
You know you got a kind of feeling
That's just grand
Take me into your arms
Let me be with you
Israel Israel Israel
I like the smiles up on your people's faces
They make you feel warm embraces
And I want that kind of smile
that kind of smile
Israel you make the whole world think about you
And if they don't they'll find a reason
to shout about Israel Israel
You're the only one Israel Israel
Tell me all about it!
Tell me all about it
Tell me all about it
Oh take me into your arms
And make me feel your goodness
Be with me Israel
Hey hey hey hey
Oh oh oh
Take me into your arms
Let me hold hold you to myself
Oh I want to Israel
Israel Oh take me back into into your arms

The United States is a strong and ardent ally of Israel. The fact of the matter is that friends can disagree. I think what's important is that world leaders are able to sit down with one another, have frank conversations and move forward.

Why Always Are We The Ones To Blame?
WHY ALWAYS ARE WE THE ONES WHO ARE TO BLAME?
No poem yesterday
Perhaps a poem today
But without the joy of poetry-
A deep inner silence and sadness
A fear.
Why always are we the ones who are to blame?
They hate us so so much.
A bit more than half – a – century after the Shoah
And the one country in the world
Most hated most blamed most treated unjustly most lied about
Most accused of crimes its enemies are guilty of,
Israel only Israel Israel small Israel always struggling Israel.
May God help us survive and be safe.

Hamas, also elected to governmental leadership in Palestine, includes the jihadists, people who have declared war on the United States of America and its ally, Israel.
Everybody on this floor wants to send the same loud and clear message: that Congress is united in its opposition to terror and we are all deeply concerned about the future and security of our close friend and ally, Israel.

Emmanuel, God With Us
We dim the light.
We stoke the fire.
We breathe the evergreen.
Young ones wait
While the old ones make up
Tales of how it used to be.
China dolls,
Candy corn,
Painted wooden toys,
Treasures found
To the wondrous sound
Of carolling the savior
Born to us on christmas morn.
Emmanuel, God with us,
Emmanuel!
Emmanuel, God with us,
The son of israel.
And still he calls
Through the night,
Beyond the days of old.
A voice of peace
To the weary ones,
Who struggle with the human soul.
All of us,
Travellers,
Through a given time.
Who can know
What tomorrow holds?
But over the horizon,
Surely you and I will find.
Emmanuel, God with us,
Emmanuel!
Emmanuel, God with us,
The son of israel.
And the years they come,
And the years they go,
Though we may forget somehow
That the child once born in bethlehem
Is still among us now.
(emmanuel....)
(emmanuel, God with us.
The son of israel.)
Emmanuel, God with us, (emmanuel.)
Emmanuel! (emmanuel.)
Emmanuel, God with us, (emmanuel.)
The son of israel. (israel.)
The son of israel.
The son of is...israel. (son of israel.)

This Pesach Too
This Pesach too
They threaten to destroy us-
One generation after the Shoah
Another threat has come against us -
For more than one hundred generations
We have survived-
Israel is here now and stronger than ever-
May God help us in the coming generations
Bring greater Freedom to a better world.

Descendant Of Israel
Through the spirit,
Through the flesh,
For, it is not everyone who is a descendant of Israel belongs to Israel;
But to be carnally minded is death!
Those who live according to the spirit set their minds on the things of the spirit,
And i am by the seaside resting my mnind!
But, you are 27 year-old lady who is in love with a married man who is 50 years old!
The 12 tribes of Israel,
For, it is not everyone who is a descendant of Israel belongs to Israel! !
But, come and let me nourish you with my love;
For, it is for me and for you to know the truth always.

And then there's Israel - a lot of people support Israel, and it's important to Israel to take out Iraq. So it's all mixed together. It's a combination of motives.

For so long as the Jew has even one ally, he will be convinced - in his smallness of mind - that his salvation came from that ally. It is only when he is alone - against all of his own efforts and frantic attempts - that he will, through no choice, be compelled to turn to G-d.

Where Is The Poem For Israel?
WHERE IS THE POEM FOR ISRAEL?
I have lived in Israel close to forty years
I owe it so much
Yet I have not written of it truly-
And as the world turns Truth upside down
And makes us who so long for Peace
And have and would sacrifice for it
The Guilty Party-
And as the world joins our enemies in hating us
Distorting our history-
I feel how feeble and inadequate my own voice
In the writing that would defend it -

The Bush Administration's failure to be consistently involved in helping Israel achieve peace with the Palestinians has been both wrong for our friendship with Israel, as well as badly damaging to our standing in the Arab world.

We want to see Israel withdraw from our territory. But we don't want to be accountable vis-a-vis Israel on the security basis, because we don't see, in the absence of a peace agreement, that Lebanon can really be accountable to Israel if anything happens.

From That Child
The Christ Child born in Bethlehem, in Israel would bring to them,
Peace and Hope upon the earth, through our Lord’s special birth;
The virgin birth was God’s sign, that this baby was indeed divine,
And prophecies He would fulfill, through that tiny nation of Israel.
That Child would become a man, and carry out The Father’s Plan,
To save His people from their sin, all of those, who’d turn to Him.
The son given to Mary and Joseph, that carpenter from Nazareth,
Where it was even said by some, what good from it could come?
So that nation would then reject, The Savior sent for God’s Elect,
By turning away from God’s Will, as a whole, the Nation of Israel,
Ignoring what Isaiah prophesied, their Savior sent, they despised,
So The God of Israel would turn to, Gentiles such as me and you.
And that is where we are today, far from that baby laid in the hay,
Now seated at God’s Right Hand, His Salvation is for every land;
As believers throughout the world, are sent forth to be His herald,
Before He comes back to fulfill, God’s promises to chosen Israel.
When He’ll be sent back by God, to rule all earth with an Iron Rod,
As Christ reigns from Jerusalem, over all nations for a Millennium,
This after Christ returns in Majesty, and every eye in Israel will see,
The Lord and God of every nation, Israel’s long awaited Salvation.

I would like Israel to be a Jewish state, and therefore not to annex over 2 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to Israel, which will make Israel a bi-national state.

God's Eternal City
Today's occupation of Jerusalem by others in Scripture is unfounded,
And the whole world will see this fact when that Trumpet is sounded.
When millions leave the earth, those left behind will be dumbfounded,
And soon after this happens, God's Eternal City will be surrounded.
For those left behind, a politician will grab the focus of the world,
He will confirm a covenant for Israel and his plans will be unfurled.
The very city that Arabs claim because of one of their holiest sites,
Was a city conquered and taken by King David from the Jebusites.
Even Nehemiah told an Arab when he went to rebuild Jerusalem's wall,
You have no share in Jerusalem, claim or historic right to it at all.
The leaders convince people to kill themselves, thinking it's clever,
In a vain attempt to take the City that God put His Name on forever.
In His time God will gather all the nations around His Beloved City,
He will pour His wrath on Israel's enemies, and show them no pity.
According to God's Word, Israel's Messiah will descend from the sky,
And as Christ comes with the clouds He will capture every single eye.
It will be on the Mount of Olives, on which the Messiah shall stand,
This is the day Zechariah said Israel would see and then understand.
For Israel will be delivered through God's outstretched mighty hand,
And finally do away with all Israel's enemies and purify their land.

Pyrrhic victory
how do you make coercion
your ally?
will you try to use
the moral lesson
that teaches nothing
but fear?
i shall run the risk
of this Pyrrhic victory
to have you in
my heart
and yet negate you
in my flesh
and that ally of the mind
exploits
and negates
my triumph in love
