Hamas to U.S.: Holy city is ours

JERUSALEM ? Hamas warned yesterday against any American attempt to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, saying such a move, currently being debated by the U.S. Congress, would spark immediate violence throughout the Middle East.

Any U.S. resolution recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel will explode the region into violence and end the current "calm" in the Palestinian territories, said Hamas spokesman Mushir Al-Masri.

Al-Masri was responded to a congressional discussion last week regarding a draft resolution requesting the U.S. administration recognize Jerusalem as the "united and eternal capital" of Israel before officially recognizing any future Palestinian state.

The Hamas spokesman demanding Jerusalem be reserved for the capital of what it called its future state.

Jerusalem is not even mentioned in the Hamas' Koran. Neither is Palestine

Upon what Spiritual Authority do the Hamas make such a demand? promising violence if they don't get their way?

Mic 4:2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob {Israel]; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the Word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Psa 111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom {He says Jerusalem belongs to Israel.

The Koran gave this world NO advice concerning Jerusalem

"We will not accept less than this at any time," Al-Masri warned. {And what gives them that right to make such a demand?

035.040 Say: "Have ye seen these 'Partners' of yours whom ye call upon besides Allah? Show Me what it is they have created in the wide earth. Or have they a share in the heavens? Or have We given them a Book from which they can derive clear evidence?- Nay, the wrong-doers promise each other nothing but delusions.

 

Is Palestine a 'delusion'?

 

021.024 Or have they taken for worship other gods besides him? Say, "Bring your convincing proof:

 

027.064 "Bring forth your argument, if ye are telling the truth!"

 

Isa 42:9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: Before they spring forth I tell you of them.

 

Isa 14:31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times. {from the Book that offers Convincing Proof]

Isa 45:21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD?

Isa 41:26 Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, He is righteous?

We're ALL looking at Palestine...aren't we?

 

Where in the Koran is the name Palestine mentioned? the biggest issue of ALL time for the Islamic world!? Where is allah's convincing proof?

 

What Justification can the Hamas offer -  in making such a HUGE demand? one that concerns the whole world?

WorldNetDaily broke the story last month that the United States has quietly approved a plan to relocate its consulate from the eastern section of Jerusalem to a western Jerusalem neighborhood, with construction of the new facility already beginning, and some in Israel worried the move may be related to the Jewish state withdrawing from eastern Jerusalem and giving the area to the Palestinians for a future state.

The U.S. had debated for several years moving its consulate, currently located in a largely Arab eastern Jerusalem neighborhood, to the western, more Jewish section of the city, with talks intensifying as the Oslo peace process moved forward and Israeli-Palestinian negotiations culminating in Israel agreeing at Camp David in 2000 to give the eastern section of Jerusalem to the PLO to create its future state's capital. The new facility, now under construction, will feature 9,000 square meters of constructed space housing the consular department, public affairs, the Agency for International Development, the consulate's Foreign Commercial Service, and consulate management and other support services.

Where have the voices of the self-professing 'Christian' leaders been?

Zec 8:16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates.

Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Why build that which the Lord of the Christians ALREADY said He will destroy?

Psa 111:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom {and He commanded all of us to speak the Truth]

Exd 15:14 The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina. Song of Moses - the saints 'sing' this song}   Rev 15:3 

The new Jerusalem consulate is scheduled to open in early 2007.

The U.S. is maintaining the consular move is related to rising concerns over suicide attacks {Murder - in the name of Palestine - a city that 'allah' forgot to mention] in Jerusalem and security threats in the eastern Jerusalem neighborhood.

"We've been dealing with the process of moving the consulate to a secure location for several years now," Chuck Hunter, a spokesperson at the Jerusalem consulate, told WND.

But some in Israel worry the consular move may be politically motivated. They charge the U.S. is transferring its facilities ahead of an ultimate Israeli withdrawal from eastern Jerusalem.

Joe 3:2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for My people and for My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted My land.

Joe 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.

Amo 5:18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.

Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

Zec 12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

Zep 3:8 Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

Eze 39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name.  The name Israel came from God - not man Gen 35:10

2Ch 6:6 I [the Lord] have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

Mat 5:33 Ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

Mat 5:34 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

Mat 5:35 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

The Hamas have no justification demanding that Jerusalem be turned over to them. Their god never even mentions the name Jerusalem.

They are a disobedient group - who care NOTHING about the Truth - but only about what they want - whether it be right or not - who continually commit murder as they call it 'resistance'.  Resistance in defense of what? Palestine? Then let the Hamas show where their god demands that they slaughter in the name of Palestine.

Psa 2:1  Why do the heathen rage,

and the people imagine a vain thing?

 

Upon what Spiritual Authority

 do members of Islam demand the destruction of Israel?

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is forging ahead with his plan to remove Jewish settlers from Gaza and parts of the West Bank this summer, and there have been talks of future withdrawals from other areas, including eastern Jerusalem.

Deputy Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, whose statements are considered closely aligned with Sharon's policy, said in June he is willing to cede Israeli control over at least six Arab neighborhoods that lie on the periphery of Jerusalem.

"Jerusalem is dear to me, but one must not lose sight of proportions over peripheral areas we do not need," Olmert said.

Moshe Feiglin, Likud member and leader of the Manhigut Yehudit nationalist party told WND: "It looks believable the U.S. would move the consulate to get out of that neighborhood ahead of a withdrawal."

Knesset Member Uzi Landau, one of the leading anti-disengagement forces within Sharon's Likud Party, told WND he thinks Israel will withdraw from Jerusalem in the future:

"It is quite clear the disengagement policy will lead to the division of Jerusalem. This will be done under the auspices of Sharon, while Olmert is leading the political talk."

Meanwhile, Hamas also announced yesterday it will ignore calls from Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to disarm following legislative elections July 17.

"When a movement or militia is transformed into a political party, I would say that there will then be no need for them to possess weapons," Abbas told reporters, referring to Hamas plans to run in the upcoming Palestinian elections.

"There will be only one authority, one law, and one legal gun. The issue is very clear, and this has been common practice throughout history," said Abbas.

The Palestinian chairman gave no indication he would forcefully disarm the group, as both the U.S. and Israel have demanded of him.

Al-Masri said Hamas has no plans to lay down its weapons.

"Our fingers will remain on the rifle triggers until the removal of the occupation," said Al-Masri, who balked at suggestions Hamas was becoming a political party.

Hamas participation in elections "does not mean it is on the way to becoming a political party," Al Masri said.

Zep 2:3  Seek ye the LORD [out of the Book of the Lord Isa 34:16], all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.

 

Zep 2:2  Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD'S anger come upon you.

 

Zep 2:4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.

Zep 2:5 Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the Word of the LORD is against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant.

Isa 13:13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Isa 45:22  Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

Isa 14:31  Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times.

Eze 12:25  I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass.

Isa 14:27 For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

Zep 2:3  Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.

Eph 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
