Trump accelerating prophecy
- Bill Wilson -
President Donald Trump has shaken the establishment Middle East foreign policy wonks to the core, first by recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and now by threatening to cut off US aid to the Palestinian Authority. Trump tweeted "we pay the Palestinians HUNDRED OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS a year and get no appreciation or respect. They don't even want to negotiate a long overdue peace treaty with Israel...but with the Palestinians no longer willing to talk peace, why should we make any of these massive future payments to them?" While other presidents have accelerated prophecy by aiding and abetting the antichrist position, Trump is doing it by supporting Israel.
Just to put it in perspective, in 2016 the Palestinian Authority claimed on the Voice of Palestine radio that it received no money from the US. The State Department, however, confirmed that $357 million was given in direct aid, and another $355 million to the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees. Altogether US taxpayers gave the Palestinian Authority $712 million. Europe and other nations also gave hundreds of millions. President George W. Bush legitimized the Palestinian Authority (formerly the Palestinian Liberation Organization, a terrorist group) by forcing elections in 2006, of which the US paid an additional $2.3 million. Members of the terrorist groups Hamas and Fatah were elected.
The Palestinian Authority's sole purpose is the annihilation of Israel. It is always begging for money, yet they have billions from the US and Europe to fund missiles and bombs against the citizens of Israel. Sad truth is the slippery slope of US support for these terrorists began under President Carter's 1979 Camp David Accords. President Reagan, however, stood firm on September 1, 1982 when he said, "The United States will not support the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza." President Clinton, who promoted the Oslo accords with terrorist Yassir Arafat, was the first to hint at US approval of a Palestinian state. President George W. Bush was the first to mouth the words. And the immediate past "president" accelerated all things anti-Israel.
Trump, like Reagan, is breaking from the traditional globalist foreign policy of paying the terrorists with hopes of Middle East peace. The Palestinian Authority website once stated that its goal was to "drive the Zionist pigs into the sea." Prior to elections, it was taken down and cleaned up. Trump, in his own way, is accelerating end time prophecy by ending appeasement of terrorists and strengthening the foundation of Israel. This agitates the Islamic world, the antichrist system, and quickens the enemies of God. Psalm 122:6 says, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love you." It's also important to keep in mind the words of Jesus in Matthew 24:4, "Take heed that no man deceive you." In this case, the media and the globalists criticizing Trump are not only deceiving, but are themselves deceived.
Why Trump's Palestinian Aid Cut Threat Makes Sense

- By Jonathan S. Tobin -
Since taking office nearly a year ago, President Donald Trump has not shied away from challenging conventional stances on domestic and international issues, including the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Will Trump's approach extend to U.S. policy towards UNRWA, the United Nations refugee agency that is solely dedicated to the Palestinians?
Following Trump's Dec. 6 announcement recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital, reversing decades of American policy, Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas said the U.S. is "no longer an honest mediator in the peace process."
But Trump has fired back, questioning the Palestinians' commitment to negotiations as well as the sensibility of U.S. aid to the PA.
"We pay the Palestinians HUNDRED OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS a year and get no appreciation or respect...with the Palestinians no longer willing to talk peace, why should we make any of these massive future payments to them?" Trump tweeted Jan. 2.
After Trump's tweet, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley told reporters that the U.S. remains committed to the peace process, but implied that America would cut off aid to the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) if the Palestinians refuse to participate in negotiations.
"I think the president has basically said that he doesn't want to give any additional funding until the Palestinians are agreeing to come back to the negotiation table," Haley said. "We're trying to move for a peace process, but if that doesn't happen the president is not going to continue to fund that situation."
Most of the mainstream media treated that idea as being as loopy as the latest exchange of insults with North Korea's dictator. But while it's easy to mock Trump's social media habits, this one made sense and showed that, not for the first time, the president's instinctual distrust of experts and the foreign policy establishment may have served him well.
The minuscule amount of the national budget that goes to foreign nations generally serves American interests. In the case of Israel, which is the largest recipient, almost all of the money it gets is spent in the U.S. It's also part of a strategic alliance in which America receives a great deal back in terms of intelligence and technology.
But not all foreign aid serves U.S. interests. The money sent to the Palestinians illustrates this painfully obvious conclusion. Yet despite the abundant proof that keeping it flowing is counterproductive, the so-called experts seeking to restrain Trump can't seem to grasp this fact.
Aid to the PA is seen as necessary to prop up the only available interlocutor for peace with Israel. We're also told that funding the PA is a necessary part of its security cooperation with Israel.
There are elements of truth to these assertions. If the PA were to collapse, that would likely lead to Israel having to reassert direct control of the West Bank rather than the current situation in which the overwhelming majority of Palestinians are governed by the corrupt Fatah party led by PA leader Mahmoud Abbas.
But the PA's need for cash to prop up its kleptocracy is exactly why the U.S. should be using its financial leverage to make it clear to Abbas that a quarter century of his organization holding the U.S. hostage in this manner can't continue. Abbas's threats of dissolving the PA are bluffs that should have been called long ago.
The same is true of security cooperation. Abbas relies on Israel to ensure his survival against the plots of his Islamist rivals as much, if not more, than the Israelis rely on the PA to help keep terror under control in the West Bank.
The PA also uses the hundreds of millions of dollars it gets from the U.S. to provide salaries and pensions to terrorists and their families. Congressional efforts to hinge U.S. aid to ending the PA's subsidies via the Taylor Force Act deserve the president's support.
The same is true about the massive American contributions to UNRWA, the United Nations refugee agency that is solely devoted to the Palestinians. While UNRWA is credited with feeding and educating Palestinians, its main role is in maintaining the Arab refugees as a stateless people to perpetuate an ongoing threat to Israel's existence.
An equal number of Jews were forced to flee their homes in Arab and Muslim countries after 1948, but they were absorbed in Israel and the West. Yet UNRWA has been part of the effort to prevent Palestinian Arabs from being absorbed elsewhere, thereby allowing them to cling to their dream of destroying the Jewish state.
UNRWA's schools have courses and books that promote hatred of Israel and Jews. Just as outrageous is the fact that UNRWA employees are often involved with Palestinian terror organizations, and its schools and other facilities have been used to store Hamas weapons where they would presumably be safe from Israeli retaliation.
American governments have tolerated this situation because they felt there was no alternative. But whether or not it is because he isn't so versed in policy, and therefore is not burdened with the conventional wisdom that has made destructive programs seem reasonable, Trump appears to be unwilling to keep throwing good money after bad.
You don't have to be supporter of Trump or Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government to understand that he is right to demand that if the Palestinians want U.S. money they must, at the very least, come back to the negotiating table and cease funding and fomenting terror.
It isn't so much a case of "America First" to demand that recipients of U.S. largesse cooperate with U.S. policy, as it is one of common sense.
FBI launching new investigation on Clintons - Bill Wilson - www.dailyjot.com
The Hill reports that the FBI is launching a new investigation into the Clinton Foundation and Hillary Clinton's "pay to play" scheme-specifically whether the Clintons promised or performed any policy favors in return for largesse to their charitable efforts or whether donors expected government favors. Let us remember on August 25, 2016, The Daily Jot reported that Clinton's presidential campaign did not deny that the Clinton Foundation took money from people in exchange for meetings at the State Department. Clinton's campaign, however, attacked Associated Press, who broke the story that Clinton operated a pay to play scheme for favors and access to her at the State Department.
AP had documented a pattern and a notable system of corruption, confirming earlier reports by government investigative watchdog, Judicial Watch. On Monday, August 22, 2016 Judicial Watch released 725 of new State Department documents and 20 previously unreleased emails, in which the former Secretary of State's top aide Huma Abedin "provided influential Clinton Foundation donors special, expedited access to the secretary of state. In many instances, the preferential treatment provided to donors was at the specific request of Clinton Foundation executive Douglas Band." These and the AP investigation reveal an elaborate scheme to enrich the Clintons while she was Secretary of State.
Judicial Watch stated: "The Abedin emails reveal that the longtime Clinton aide apparently served as a conduit between Clinton Foundation donors and Hillary Clinton while Clinton served as secretary of state. In more than a dozen email exchanges, Abedin provided expedited, direct access to Clinton for donors who had contributed from $25,000 to $10 million to the Clinton Foundation. In many instances, Clinton Foundation top executive Doug Band, who worked with the Foundation throughout Hillary Clinton's tenure at State, coordinated closely with Abedin. In September 2016, Breitbart reported that records verified Hillary Clinton's foundation had taken between $74.5-87.8 million from Algeria, Brunei, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates.
The UK Daily Caller reported that "Qatar has given between $1 million and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation and Saudi Arabia has donated upwards of $25 million dollars to the Foundation." Clinton's previous emails indicated that money given to the Clinton Foundation was often paid in relationship to Clinton setting up meetings with high-ranking government officials, including herself. In Exodus 23:8 the Lord says, "And you shall take no bribe: for the bribe blinds the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous." Some translations say a bribe subverts the cause of the just. The on again off again FBI is once again investigating these shenanigans. It shouldn't be too difficult to figure out, but then again, it's as much political as it is legal.
