Ahmadinejad Envisions Middle East Without Israel



Dear Jeff,

In a speech to crowds gathered in celebration of Iran's "Army Day," President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told the crowd that the era of Zionism had passed and then described his vision for the future of the Middle East: "A new Middle East will emerge without the presence of the United States and the Zionist regime [Israel], and their allies in the near future."

In the month of September, I met with Ahmadinejad, his foreign minister, and the majority of his cabinet. I arranged Fox News Network's first interview with Ahmadinejad and was there during the dialogue with him.


I wrote the book The Final Move Beyond Iraq three years ago when I realized what was happening. Here is one sentence from the back cover: "An Islamic revolution is spreading and is on the brink of becoming America's greatest threat since the Civil War."

Yes, this book, The Final Move beyond Iraq: The Final Solution While the World Sleeps, was a #1 New York Times bestseller in 2007. Following its release, I debated Arianna Huffington, Pat Buchanan, Al Sharpton, and Tucker Carlson on my belief that Islamic countries would be overthrown in the Middle East—all in the name of democracy. The unrest would not bring democracy as we know it; it would bring an Islamic revolution between the Shi'a (Iran), and the Sunnis (Gulf Oil States).

I can tell you now that the future will see Iran taking over Afghanistan and Iraq and creating a Shi'a caliphate. No, it will not take over the countries in the sense that Iran will occupy those countries, but they will be populated with Islamic clerics. It will unite 300 million Shi'ites in a holy war against a billion Sunnis. America and Israel will be in the crosshairs.

This is Passover week in Israel commemorating God's deliverance from an evil leader (Pharaoh) who was oppressing the children of Israel. Pray today that this same God would supernaturally move on Israel's behalf again.

When Passover occurred, every family would take a lamb to Jerusalem as an offering. The priest never inspected the man presenting the offering, only the lamb. The lamb's back was cut open to see if it was spotless. It was hanged on a vertical and horizontal pole and its blood drained. By Levitical law, not a bone of the lamb could be broken.

The Levites would sing Psalm 118 through Psalm 121 as the blood was poured over the altar in sacrifice. It was the same Psalm sung by Jesus and His disciples during His Last Passover.

Verse 5 says, "I will call upon the Lord in distress. The Lord will answer me, and set me in a large place."

Verse 17: "I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord."

Verse 19: Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go into them and will praise the Lord."

Verse 22: "The stone which the builders refused is become the head of the corner."

Verse 27: "God is the Lord which has shown us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar."

Verse 24: "This is the day which the Lord hath made; I will rejoice and be glad in it."


I wish you a blessed Passover and Easter season.

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Michael Evans

Here is a recent picture from the northern part of Iowa.







This Day…

April 25, 693: Opening session of the Sixteenth Council of Toledo which, before its close, would add more regulations that would prove oppressive to the Jews living under the Visigoths. This Visigoth anti-Semitism would provide a major impetus for Jewish support of the Moors when they invaded Spain in the early decades of the next century.[1]

700

The area known as Prussia was inhabited in early times by West Slavic tribes, ancestors of the modern Poles, in the West, and Baltic tribes, closely related to Lithuanians, in the East. Sometime after the seventh century, the area was invaded and settled by pagan German tribes, later known as Prussians.[2]

700 A.D.

By the year 700 the Arabs had overrun all the coastlands of North Africa.[3]

[4]

[5]

[6]

700 to 800 A.D.



711 A.D.: The Arabs occupied Spain.[7]

717 A.D. By 717 the Arab empire stretched from the Pyrenees to central India and their warriors were hammering at the gates of Constantinople.[8]

730 A.D.: Jarrow Englane, 730 A.D. Beed, a Benedictine monk in a monestary writes the history of England.[9]

730 A.D.: The Moors cross into France with 50,000 men. [10] The Moors cut through southern France.

c. 654-732: A second important Himyarite figure is Wahb ibn Munabbih (c. 54-732), a man of mixed Persian and Himyarite descent who was also a source on Jewish traditions but, more important , on Himyari history.[11]

April 25, 1214: Birthdate of King Louis IX of France. According to one historian Louis “hated the Jews so thoroughly that he would not look at them.” Considering the fact that Louis that Louis financed his Crusade from the wealth he stole from his Jewish subjects, the fact that he expelled them from his domain and that he burned 12,000 copies of the Talmud and other Jewish texts, one would have to say that there is more than just a little credence to this evaluation.[12]



1215: The Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 adopted the doctrine of transubstantiation, i.e., the bread and wine used in the mass actually become converted into the body and blood of Christ. Groups of Jews in various European countries such as Germany, Poland, France, and Belgium were accused of stabbing the Host, forcing a nail through it, or misusing it in other ways. Arrested and tortured, they confessed and sometimes were burned. [13]



April 25, 1284: Birthdate of King Edward II of England Edward would be the first King of England since the Norman Conquest, to reign over a Kingdom that had no Jewish subjects.[14]

April 25, 1367: Poland's Casimir III "The Great" expanded the "privileges" of 1334 to include the Jews in Lesser Poland and Ukraine.[15]

1369

Return of the Jews in Strasbourg

The formal decision not to admit Jews during one two centuries period was cancelled soon. Some Jews, envisaging persecutions, had managed to leave the city in good time and had survived the massacre. They had settled in Alsace and in addition to the Rhine. Twenty years after Judenbrand, in 1369, the “Magistrat” answered favorably six Jewish families which asked to return to the city. They were allowed there, with the help of a payable tax of 300 guilders to the municipal case, 10 marks with the lords of Oettingen on the fields of which they had lived so far, 12 marks with the imperial bishop and taxes. In exchange of these taxes, they were released from all the drudgeries and obtained, counters and additional royalty of 1 book of pfennings of Strasbourg a ground, to be used to them as cemetery. They could repurchase this ground for a sum of 500 pounds.[16]

April 25, 1507: In his book Cosmographiae Introdutio, geographer Martin Waldseemuller uses the name “America” for the New World.[17]

April 25, 1599: Birthdate of Oliver Cromwell. Most people remember Cromwell as one of the leaders in the revolt against Charles I that left the latter a beheaded monarch and the former Lord Protector. To the Jews, he is the English leader who enabled the Jews to return to England after three and half centuries of exile. Despite a great deal of opposition, Cromwell held fast to his commitment to the return of the Jews. Although they came in secret at first, by 1657, one year before the death of Cromwell, the Jews of London felt confident enough in their position to purchase a building to be used as a Synagogue. Cromwell passed away in September, 1658.[18]

1607

The Five Nations of New York met in a great council at a centrally located village called Onondaga and after considerable discussion, formally established themselves into a highly democratic and tightly knit confederation in which the good of one was the good of all. Now, an attack against any band of the Five Nations would be taken as an act of war aginst the entire confederation. They named their strong new alliance the Mengwe, or Iroquois League.[19] It did make them all the more powerful in respect to neighboring (and even distant) tribes, butt the Shawnees were neither awed nor overcome by their formally confederated foes. They continued to emerge victorious in virtually all encounters, including an intense war in the valley of the Susquehyanna River in 1607.[20]



April 25, 1607: During the Eighty Years' War, the Dutch fleet destroys the anchored Spanish fleet at Gibraltar. The Eighty Years' War, or Dutch Revolt, was the war of secession between the Netherlands and the Spanish king, that lasted from 1568 to 1648. The war resulted in the Seven United Provinces being recognized as an independent state. The United Provinces of the Netherlands, or the Dutch Republic, became a world power for a time through its merchant shipping and experienced a period of economic, scientific and cultural growth. The region now known as Belgium and Luxembourg also became established as the Southern Netherlands, part of the Seventeen Provinces that remained under royal Habsburg rule. The Spanish were Catholics. The Dutch were Protestants. More importantly, the Protestant Dutch were willing to provide a safe haven for the Jews. In fact, the early Jewish community in the Netherlands was dominated by Sephardic Jews whose families had been driven out of Catholic Spain. It was this Dutch victory over the Spanish that would mean that New Amsterdam would be Protestant and would be a haven for the first Jewish community in what would become the United States. [21]



Thursday April 25, 1754

Men from the Virginia Regiment begin building a road from Wills Creek that hopefully will cross the mountains to Redstone Creek. [22]



George Washington

To CAPTAIN DAVID BELL

April 25, 1756.

Sir: As the roads at present are so much infested, I do not think it safe to send the things you wrote for until another opportunity. I must desire that you will be very diligent, and guard against a Surprise from the Enemy, as they will certainly attack you, if they find it possible to surprise you. You are to detach Ensign Crawford with twenty men, to reconnoitre the Country towards Hites, on Opekon; and towards Buliskin, or wherever he finds these Inhabitants have retired to: He is to act rather as a reconnoitring party, than as an Offensive one. Yours &c.[2][23]

April 25, 1907

Jessie Goodlove spent Sunday at home.[28]



• April 25, 1933:

Law Against Overcrowding of German Schools and universities.[29] The Law against the Overcrowding of German Schools and Institutions of Higher Learning set a Jewish quota of 1.5 percent of high-school and university enrollment, and stipulated a limit of 5-percent Jewish enrollment in any single school. Because a compulsory education law was in effect, Jewish enrollment in primary schools was not limited for the time being. However, growing numbers of Jews voluntarily moved to purely Jewish settings by 1938, when they were totally barred from general institutions. In autumn 1941, the Jewish schools were closed by administrative order. Ironically, extra-legal discrimination against Jews seeking admission to colleges and universities existed in the United States at this time. These quotas would hang on until the later 1960’s.[30]

April 25, 1943: As the Warsaw Uprising raged on, Germans continued their invasion of the ghetto by lighting fires to buildings. Escaping women and children were shot to death and burned. Thus, the ancient Polish Jewish Community began its final descent from greatness into oblivion.[31]

April 25, 1944: Joel Brand, a member of the Relief and Rescue Committee of Budapest, was summoned to a meeting with Adolf Eichmann, who presented him with an offer that would be known as "Blood for Trucks." Eichmann told Brand that the highest SS authorities had approved the terms, in which Eichmann would barter "a million Jews" for goods obtained outside of Hungary, including 10,000 trucks for civilian use, or, as an alternative, for use on the eastern front. The 1 million Jews would have to leave the country-since Eichmann had promised that Hungary would be Judenrein-and might head for any destination other than Palestine, since he had promised the Mufti of Jerusalem that no Jews would be allowed to emigrate there. To negotiate the effectuation of the deal, Eichmann let Brand leave Hungary. Although Brand was unaware of it at the time, the offer was evidently connected with an attempt by Himmler to drive a wedge between the Western Allies and the Soviet Union, and to conclude a separate peace with the former. Brand did go to Ankara, Jerusalem, and Cairo, and he negotiated with American officials and leaders of the Jewish Agency for Palestine. However, he was arrested and imprisoned in Cairo, and the rescue scheme was never implemented.[32]

• April 25, 1945: On the evening of April 25, Mussolini fled toward the Swiss border escorted by the S.S.. With the death of Mussolini the war in Italy came to an end. [33]





April 25, 1953: Though DNA--short for deoxyribonucleic acid--was discovered in 1869, its crucial role in determining genetic inheritance wasn't demonstrated until 1943. In the early 1950s, Watson and Crick were only two of many scientists working on figuring out the structure of DNA. California chemist Linus Pauling suggested an incorrect model at the beginning of 1953, prompting Watson and Crick to try and beat Pauling at his own game. On the morning of February 28, they determined that the structure of DNA was a double-helix polymer, or a spiral of two DNA strands, each containing a long chain of monomer nucleotides, wound around each other. According to their findings, DNA replicated itself by separating into individual strands, each of which became the template for a new double helix. In his best-selling book, The Double Helix (1968), Watson later claimed that Crick announced the discovery by walking into the nearby Eagle Pub and blurting out that "we had found the secret of life." The truth wasn’t that far off, as Watson and Crick had solved a fundamental mystery of science--how it was possible for genetic instructions to be held inside organisms and passed from generation to generation.

Watson and Crick's solution was formally announced on April 25, 1953, following its publication in that month’s issue of Nature magazine. The article revolutionized the study of biology and medicine. Among the developments that followed directly from it were pre-natal screening for disease genes; genetically engineered foods; the ability to identify human remains; the rational design of treatments for diseases such as AIDS; and the accurate testing of physical evidence in order to convict or exonerate criminals.

Crick and Watson later had a falling-out over Watson's book, which Crick felt misrepresented their collaboration and betrayed their friendship. A larger controversy arose over the use Watson and Crick made of research done by another DNA researcher, Rosalind Franklin, whose colleague Maurice Wilkins showed her X-ray photographic work to Watson just before he and Crick made their famous discovery. When Crick and Watson won the Nobel Prize in 1962, they shared it with Wilkins. Franklin, who died in 1958 of ovarian cancer and was thus ineligible for the award, never learned of the role her photos played in the historic scientific breakthrough. [34]
