JEWISH LIVES MATTER:

 Nadene Goldfoot                                                 

The United Nations currently has 193 member states. Every member state has equal representation in the UN General Assembly. 

Why would any International powerhouse with UN standing vote to put a state next door to Israel who has sworn to destroy it since 1967 and tried on October 7, 2023 if Israel didn't obey their commands such as cease fire, allow them to receive more aid and weapons and then to win?   It sounds like the plans of some 12 year old's playbook !

AI came up with these facts:  Recent statements indicate that several countries are considering or have announced their intention to recognize a Palestinian state at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September.  Before France's recent announcement of its intention to recognize a Palestinian state in September, more than 140 countries had already recognized a Palestinian state. Among the countries that announced conditional plans to offer recognition, or who were signatories to a declaration pointing towards future recognition, before or concurrently with France's announcement, the following stand out:                                            
PM Keir Starmer says UK will recognize Palestinian People

  • Britain: Announced conditional plans to recognize a Palestinian state if Israel doesn't agree to a ceasefire with Hamas and end the situation in Gaza. (Good G-d! Don't they realize that this would allow terrorists the upper hand and it would end all right, more possibly be the end of Israel.....All this time Israel would have loved to have had some pressure on Hamas to change their ways and join us in peace, but Iran had their claws in them and You, the WEST, didn't give a hoot about Israel's survival.)  
    PM Justin Trudeau (2015-March 2025) 
    French President Emmanuel Macron’s decision to pledge recognition of a Palestinian state at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September took many observers, in and outside of France, by surprise. Only a few weeks earlier, Macron had cautiously articulated a vision that conditioned such recognition on demands that included the exclusion of Hamas from Palestinian politics. Several factors can explain this sudden shift. Domestically, Macron leads a minority centrist government, and the far-left opposition has long called for such recognition. However, Macron’s statement is unlikely to ease French politics, which are today less about the Israel-Palestine conflict than the approval of a contentious new government bill. (I say he was very naive.  

  •                                        Mark Carney
  • Based on recent announcements, the Prime Minister of Canada who has stated Canada's intention to recognize Palestine as a state is Mark Carney. Prime Minister Carney announced on July 30, 2025, that Canada plans to formally recognize the State of Palestine at the 80th Session of the United Nations General Assembly in September 2025. This decision follows similar announcements from the United Kingdom and France. 
  •   Canada's Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney made the announcement after a Cabinet meeting,Announced conditional plans to recognize a Palestinian state, demanding that the Palestinian Authority (PA) (which rules Our Ancient Judea and Samaria: the West Bank) make democratic reforms including an election (excluding Hamas) in 2026. (Heck, we've been wanting this since Israel gave Gaza to the Palestinians in 2005 and they held their democratic vote and voted in Hamas terrorism. )  
  •   Malta: Declared its upcoming recognition of a Palestinian state. 
  • Christopher Cutajar, the permanent secretary at Malta's Foreign Ministry, made his country's announcement earlier at the U.N. General Assembly's meeting on a two-state solution to the conflict which was extended to a third day because of the high number of countries wanting to speak.

  • Portugal: Indicated it may soon recognize a State of Palestine  
  • New Zealand and Australia: Were signatories to a declaration indicating they could follow suit in the coming months. UNITED NATIONS — Canada and Malta announced Wednesday they will recognize the state of Palestine in September, joining France and the United Kingdom in stepping up pressure to end the nearly 80-year Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
  • It's important to note that the recognition of a Palestinian state by these countries is often seen as a significant shift in diplomatic policy, especially for some Western nations. While over 140 countries already recognize a Palestinian state, the recent announcements reflect growing international pressure and concern over the ongoing conflict and humanitarian crisis in Gaza. .   (If Israel could have, it could have been over in 6 days, like the Six Day War of 1967, and there wouldn't have been any such humanitarian crisis created by HAMAS, by the way.)
  • However, there is not a single, universally accepted set of conditions tied to these pledges, and the precise conditions and timeline may differ between countries. For example, while Britain and Canada have outlined conditions, France's move appears less conditional.  (Their WW2 was a give-in condition).
For the people of a state, recognition by other states signifies international acknowledgement of their statehood, leading to various benefits like participation in global affairs, diplomatic relations, and access to aidIt also implies acceptance of their sovereignty and territorial integrity, and the ability to enter into treaties and participate in international organizations. 

Even Albert Einstein would wonder at the thinking process of people today.....

Right now what concerns me is the mentality of so many who think along this line who are the leaders in the world.  So many Western powers and then so many Middle Eastern Powers have thought along this line; constantly using one tiny but most stubborn group of people, the Jews, the world scapegoats, pulling at my ancestors to believe in their god or their gods, and we also had mentally signed a covenant saying we would believe in a one-G-d covenant and never change, and though some have fallen off the promise, we still have a core group existing, called The Jews, the People of the Book;  the Chosen.  No matter how you believe, what are you thinking of?  Does this make sense to you?  Have you no individual plan for  Israel and the Palestinian Arabs instead of this pretty much unified statement?  

  Lots of others have claimed the name, saying Jews are no longer "necessary," that  they were taking their place;  but they have no idea of what it entails;  and sometimes I even wonder if G-d knew what he was asking of us;  but you know, it just makes so much sense to us, that we can't even blink our eyes against the intelligence of it all.  

 For 4,000 years, more or less since Abraham, we have followed Judaism, stepping over all the challenges thrown into our path somehow, and we'll keep on hoping.  Jewish lives matter, and this is the challenge to the world, finally. 

Genesis 12:3 teaches us that I will bless those who bless you.” God will bless those who bless you [Israel]. You can take a stand for Israel. Speak up for Israel. Stand up for Israel. Pray for Israel. Bless Israel today, and may God bless you in return.

 Are they going to be bright enough to allow us our Israel in peace and security or not, and if they can't do that, what is to happen?  

My friend from the Micronesian Islands just told me a story with the moral of the story being, "Be patient"  the Lord works in mysterious ways.  I'm about running out of patience.  What timing!!!
