Many Israelis have noted how Haredi rabbis have refrained from criticizing those who have signed up. The Haredim considered Torah study essential for young men, and Haredi leaders in the past have insisted upon the exemptions, even as other Israelis have denounced the group for shirking military service.

Peace Message
Dear Senator Wyden and Governor Kotek;
I am seventy-six years of age. I am thirty-six years clean and sober. I have what many people want, and millions of Oregon tax dollars has been allotted to combat drug and alcohol abuse. Many lives are being lost. Did Senator Hatfield ever pass a law, or attempt to pass a law forbidding Oregonians from contributing to the War in Vietnam – where many lives were lost? Our late Republicans Senator was a – standout! His opposition to war – is the shining example I bid all Oregonians to emulate in order to put an end to the slow-motion carpet bombing being conducted by Israel on the citizens of Gaza – who had legitimate grievances for many years. President Herzog knows this. He called the hideous violence a “legitimate war”. When I heard this several days ago, I am propelled back in time. In 1971 I attended an Anti-Vietnam Demonstration where 7,000 American citizens were arrested.
Was it their fault they got arrested President Herzog – because they failed to heed the many warning they would be arrested – if they did not disperse? Was it your idea to drop leaflets from a airplane telling civilians if they do not leave their homes and head north – they will surely die? Did the U.S. drop leaflets on Hiroshima and Nagasaki before they dropped atomic bombs? Why bother? I would like to read your propaganda plans. I suspect you want to avoid the loss of Israeli soldiers – lest there be a Anti-war movement amongst Liberal Jews and the Haredi. How many Israeli soldiers were lost in both Iraq Wars?………FOUR! Many reporters are asking if you got a peace plan, an end game! In Vietnam – there was none! There was the infamous body-count. I suspect that illegitimate war kept going in order to – destroy the American Left! Israel was a Socialist nation, that is at odds with the religious zealots.
Mark Hatfield saw the rubble of Hiroshima that is show in pic 3. Hard to see the difference. Many evangelicals want a End Time Battle and Tribulation, and see themselves as Christian Zionists, which angers Ultra-Orthodox Jews – who spend ten thousand hours a month study the Torah – so they can be exempt from mandatory military service! If they spent twenty thousands hours studying the New Testament, they may have discovered what I discovered. John the Baptist spoke after being put in Eljas chair when he was eight days old. Thus he was not a Christian, but, and Orthodoxic Jew.
This brings us to the Republican lawmakers who brought the religious agendas of the Christian-right to the people of Oregon by walking out to avoid voting on moral issues – they were going to lose! This is why I am for Oregonians passing a Bill that would forbid the teaching of Commandment No.1 and No,2. Also with this Bill will be the outlawing of all violent accounts of God – allegedly killing Jews he found guilty of IDOLETRY. God’s Wraith – is not applicable to gentiles and Christians, and may be one of the sources of Anti-Semitisms, as well as the source of Godly Permission to commit brutal religious warfare. . I suggest the State of Oregon put together a panel in order to study how the Torah promote valence, along with the book of Revelations. I also suggest a boycott of goods made in India that gave us Mahatma Gandhi, , but refuses to condemn Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Senator Wyden – would you standup and not vote for more money to Israel? We have a housing problem in Oregon that is destroying our State. It appears to millions of people all over the world, Israel is turning homes in Gaza into rubble – because they want to get rid of them – and take their land. The IDF is not conducting conventional warfare. They are saying they are murdering thousands in order to get them to turn over members of Hamas, but, that’s not true! War in most cases is about ‘Murderous Revenge’. Before WE give Israel more money ask them if they can come up with a proportionate Body-count – an eye for an eye – that will satiate their need for revenge? For – it looks like genocide to me – and a million others – at least! Hitler and the Nazis came up with ‘The Final Solution’. We are seeing ‘There Is Not Solution Plan’. I suggested a New Exodus to South Dakota. Anything but watching nine million people murder civilians who do not have what the North Vietnamese had, SAM missiles capable of bringing down high flying carpet bombers – that I am sure Senator Hatfield – HATED! Dito!
STOP FUNDING THE NO SOLUTION PLAN – NOW!
Sincerely
John Presco
Here are other agendas for Oregon Citizens…
- Abolish the first and second Commandant because these laws only apply to Jews, who as a whole reject the teaching of Jesus, Paul, and John. Judaism is a CLOSED religion. Someone learned Jews believe the Jews lost the Promised Land because they kept breaking 1&2. Christians were not invited to take part in….The Zionist Dream!
2. Launch an investigation into the assassination of Folke Bernadotte by Zionists.
“As Israel engages in a massive air campaign ahead of an anticipated full-scale ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, Israeli President Isaac Herzog said on Friday that all citizens of Gaza are responsible for the attack Hamas perpetrated in Israel last weekend that left over 1,200 people dead.
“It is an entire nation out there that is responsible,” Herzog said at a press conference on Friday. “It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not being aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up. They could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup d’etat.”
The impression of a young girl was burned into a concrete wall when America dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima in 1945. The bomb was one of two deployed in Japan near the end of World War II, killing at least 129,000 people in the blasts.
Navy Lt. Mark Hatfield ’43 — who later served as an Oregon senator from 1967 to 1997 — was one of the first U.S. military personnel to enter Hiroshima after the bombing. He was stunned by the devastation — the eerie shadows, the ruined buildings and the horrifically wounded survivors. The experience shaped his political career and his life-long opposition to war.
“He understood the suffering of people,” says Wes Granberg-Michaelson, a former Hatfield staffer. “He was committed to peace, integrity and humanitarianism.”
On Jan. 26, several of Hatfield’s former foreign policy advisers gathered in Roger Music Center’s Hudson Hall to discuss the late senator’s legacy — including his efforts to stop the Vietnam War, slow the nuclear arms race, cut military expenditures, and promote international human rights.
Visiting history professor Christopher Foss served as moderator, and the roundtable participants were Walt Evans L’67, Gransberg-Michaelson, Tom Getman, Jack Robertson and Rick Rolf. Gary Barbour ’76, who had also worked as a Hatfield aide, gave the introduction.
Although the commentators served different roles in Hatfield’s administration, they all described him as a mentor who unfailingly put others’ needs before his own political ambitions.
“How we got our jobs is not important. What is important is why we stayed,” Getman said. “Our jobs were places to give, learn and be nurtured. He gave the rest of us hope.”
Hatfield served two terms as governor and five as senator. Because of his dedication to public service, Willamette’s Hatfield Library was named after him.
As senator, he co-sponsored the McGovern-Hatfield Amendment in 1970, which called for a complete withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam. Despite his impassioned plea to the Senate to bring American troops home, the bill failed by a 55-39 margin.
Hatfield later opposed U.S. intervention in civil wars in Central America, and was one of only two Republican senators who voted against the 1991 Persian Gulf War resolution.
He helped pass bills to freeze the testing and development of nuclear weapons in the 1980s and 1990s, and he supported a trade embargo with the Ugandan government of Idi Amin, a president who reportedly killed and tortured hundreds of thousands of people in the 1970s.
Although his convictions weren’t always popular, Hatfield was never one to bow to public pressure, Robertson says.
“He had a beautiful sense of grace,” he said. “He was always calm, which helped all of us during those difficult times.”
Moderator Foss said what he most enjoyed about the discussion was hearing the staffers’ stories, which he described as serious, funny, engaging and disarming.
“These men would have given their lives for Hatfield — they were that dedicated to him,” Foss said. “They lived out the Willamette motto, ‘Not unto ourselves alone are we born,’ just as the senator did, and it seems clear that the United States, and the world, are better off for it.”
The panel discussion was sponsored by Willamette University Archives and Special Collections, the History Department and the Politics Department. More information about Hatfield’s life and legacy is available on the Hatfield Library’s webpage.
“This clause applies to Donald Trump,” the letter to Griffin-Valade said. “Having sworn an oath to support the Constitution as an officer of the United States, then ‘engaged’ in the January 6 insurrection as that term is defined by law and precedent, Trump is now ineligible to hold any ‘office … under the United States,’ including the presidency, unless and until he is relieved of that disqualification by two-thirds of both chambers of Congress.”
The underlying reason, however, is Republicans would like to get rid of bills they consider extreme — including those that expand access to abortions and gender-affirming care. They have been particularly adamant about a portion of House Bill 2002 that would allow children of any age to receive an abortion without parental notification. It’s a little unclear what the law calls for now.
The New Israel
Posted on October 31, 2023 by Royal Rosamond Press
God wants me to put the New Israel in South Dakota that has 860,000 people. I say God, even though God might be dead. There will be a East and West Israel. The Orthodox Jews will live East of the Missouri river, and the secular Jews live West of the Missouri. Because they can not get along is why the Old Israel – is doomed – along with having hostile neighbors.
Ezekiel 9New International Version
Judgment on the Idolaters
9 Then I heard him call out in a loud voice, “Bring near those who are appointed to execute judgment on the city, each with a weapon in his hand.” 2 And I saw six men coming from the direction of the upper gate, which faces north, each with a deadly weapon in his hand. With them was a man clothed in linen who had a writing kit at his side. They came in and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side 4 and said to him, “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it.”
5 As I listened, he said to the others, “Follow him through the city and kill, without showing pity or compassion. 6 Slaughter the old men, the young men and women, the mothers and children, but do not touch anyone who has the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.” So they began with the old men who were in front of the temple.
7 Then he said to them, “Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go!” So they went out and began killing throughout the city. 8 While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell facedown, crying out, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! Are you going to destroy the entire remnant of Israel in this outpouring of your wrath on Jerusalem?”
9 He answered me, “The sin of the people of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great; the land is full of bloodshed and the city is full of injustice. They say, ‘The Lord has forsaken the land; the Lord does not see.’ 10 So I will not look on them with pity or spare them, but I will bring down on their own heads what they have done.”
11 Then the man in linen with the writing kit at his side brought back word, saying, “I have done as you commanded.”
Trump hints at expanded role for the military within the US. A legacy law gives him few guardrails

WASHINGTON (AP) — Campaigning in Iowa this year, Donald Trump said he was prevented during his presidency from using the military to quell violence in primarily Democratic cities and states.
Calling New York City and Chicago “crime dens,” the front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination told his audience, “The next time, I’m not waiting. One of the things I did was let them run it and we’re going to show how bad a job they do,” he said. “Well, we did that. We don’t have to wait any longer.”

US President Joe Biden does not support an Israeli military “reoccupation” of the Gaza Strip after the Israel-Hamas war ends, a White House spokesman has said.
Biden believes “a reoccupation by Israeli forces of Gaza is not the right thing to do”, the White House national security spokesperson, John Kirby, told reporters on Tuesday.
At least 15 Israeli soldiers have been killed in battles in northern Gaza since Tuesday as its forces press deeper into the enclave, attacking dozens of targets affiliated with its Hamas rulers, the Israeli military said.
The 15 deaths, mostly of infantry soldiers, were the first casualties inside Gaza publicly confirmed by Israel’s military since it launched a ground invasion on Friday, as fighting appeared to intensify and its forces pushed closer to Gaza City, the biggest city in the territory.
The military wing of Hamas said on Telegram on Tuesday that its fighters had ambushed some Israeli soldiers at a building in Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza. Neither side’s account of the fighting could be independently confirmed.
In Israel, a small country in which military conscription is a mandatory rite of passage for many Jewish citizens, the soldiers’ names and faces were plastered on the home pages of most news websites. Others were read out live on Israeli television when the military announced their deaths on Wednesday.
The Israeli military said it has struck more than 11,000 targets in the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, when it launched an intense campaign of airstrikes in response to a Hamas attack that killed some 1,400 people in Israel and saw just over 200 people taken hostage. The scale of the bombardment exceeds that of any of its previous wars with Palestinian militants in the 140-square-mile enclave.
The toll of the ground invasion is only starting to become clear. On Tuesday, Israeli forces took over what they said was a Hamas military stronghold in western Jabaliya, a densely packed residential area north of Gaza City, claiming to kill more than 50 militants. There was no immediate comment by Hamas.
Estimates of the casualties from the Iraq War (beginning with the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and the ensuing occupation and insurgency and civil war) have come in several forms, and those estimates of different types of Iraq War casualties vary greatly.
Estimating war-related deaths poses many challenges.[1][2] Experts distinguish between population-based studies, which extrapolate from random samples of the population, and body counts, which tally reported deaths and likely significantly underestimate casualties.[3] Population-based studies produce estimates of the number of Iraq War casualties ranging from 151,000 violent deaths as of June 2006 (per the Iraq Family Health Survey) to 1,033,000 excess deaths (per the 2007 Opinion Research Business (ORB) survey). Other survey-based studies covering different time-spans find 461,000 total deaths (over 60% of them violent) as of June 2011 (per PLOS Medicine 2013), and 655,000 total deaths (over 90% of them violent) as of June 2006 (per the 2006 Lancet study). Body counts counted at least 110,600 violent deaths as of April 2009 (Associated Press). The Iraq Body Count project documents 186,901 – 210,296 violent civilian deaths in their table. All estimates of Iraq War casualties are disputed.[4][5]

Russian President Vladimir Putin meets with India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation leaders’ summit in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, on Sept. 16, 2022.

MUMBAI — In the year since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Western democracies have condemned Moscow, slapped wide-ranging sanctions on it, cut back on Russian oil and gas and sent unprecedented amounts of arms and ammunition to help Ukraine defend itself.
But the world’s biggest democracy — India — hasn’t done any of that.
India has solidified ties with Moscow. Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with Vladimir Putin in September and called their countries’ friendship “unbreakable.” He did tell the Russian president it’s “not a time for war.” But a year on, Modi still refuses to assign blame for the violence, and has voiced more concern over the spike in global food and fuel prices triggered by the war.
Modi counts Netanyahu among his ‘friends’ [File: Reuters]
The country was the first non-Arab country to recognise the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) as “the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people”. A PLO office was set up in New Delhi in 1975.
India issued a commemorative postage stamp on November 29, 1981, to mark the international day of solidarity with the Palestinian people.
The evolution of India’s Palestine policy goes back to pre-independence days when Indian nationalists looked upon Palestinians as fellow “brothers-in-bondage”.
India’s freedom fighter Mahatma Gandhi famously said in 1938, “Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French.”
On Sunday, India called for an immediate de-escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian situation and spoke against a unilateral change of the status quo, including in occupied East Jerusalem. The current protests started after Israel wanted to forcefully expel Palestinians from East Jerusalem’s Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood.
Netanyahu’s arrangement with the Russians allowed the Israeli leader to portray himself as a masterful geopolitical strategist over multiple election cycles. He had always considered his close personal relationship to Russian President Vladimir Putin to be both a political and national asset, grounded in a symbiosis of mutual respect and transactional necessity.
Yet the Netanyahu-Putin relationship had noticeably cooled over the last year-and-a-half before October 7, for numerous reasons. While Putin genuinely respects—and somewhat fears—Israel, he has continued to balance his relationship with Netanyahu against Moscow’s commitments and alliances within the Arab world as well as with other Muslim allies. Russia’s relationships in the Middle East with powers hostile to Israel represent a direct continuation of the regional position of the Soviet Union; many of the USSR’s regional terror assets were inherited either directly or indirectly by Iran.
Nevertheless, the Israeli-Russian neutrality pact has constrained Israel from engaging more closely with or arming the Ukrainians against the Russian invasion. In turn, Israel has paid a substantive diplomatic price with numerous allies because of its neutral stance since the start of Russia’s invasion. Many people around the world (including prominent Israelis like the the ex-refusnik leader and former Israeli cabinet minister Natan Sharansky) have viewed that arrangement as placing Israel on the wrong side of a historical conflagration. The president of Ukraine has repeatedly and fruitlessly deployed his own Jewish background in order to shame Israel into ramping up military assistance.
Operation Linebacker II, sometimes referred to as the Christmas bombings, was a strategic bombing campaign conducted by the United States against targets in North Vietnam from December 18 to December 29, 1972, partaking of the Vietnam War. More than 20,000 tons of ordnance was dropped on military and industrial areas in Hanoi and Haiphong and at least 1,624 civilians were killed. The operation was the final major military operation carried out by the U.S. during the conflict, and the largest bombing campaign involving heavy bombers since World War II.
Vietnamese air defense[edit]
At the start of Linebacker II, the air defense missile forces of the Vietnamese People’s Army had 36 air defense missile battalions armed with the S-75M Dvina (SA-2 Guideline) missile system; probably half were involved in this operation.[46] The SA-2 system was first fielded in 1957 and was a fairly obsolete and cumbersome system by 1972 standards.[47] The VPAF had only 71 operational aircraft. Of these, only 47 aircraft (31 MiG-21s and 16 MiG-17s) could be used for air combat. The MiG-19s were made in China and were not used in combat. Only 13 MiG-21 pilots and five MiG-17 pilots were trained for individual night flight in normal and flying in difficult meteorological conditions. Of 194 pilots, 75 (about 40 percent) were young.

I am looking for a group of attorneys to sue Netanyahu and the Hassidic Jews for not studying the New Testament before they decided to get rid of Secular Israel that has been given billions by my Secular Democracy to protect the Jews from their enemies. This surrender of Israel to YHWH constitutes a breach of contact. Our Constitution does now allow for the preferential treatment of any religion, or, giving monies to any church for protection.
With the announcement that LGBTQ folks are the enemy of the Religious State of Israel, it is time to hold serious televised debates about who the real enemies of Judaism are – and have been for over two thousand years. Saint Paul invented anti-Semitism in order to free Pagan converts from the yoke of Mosaic Law, yet I discovered John the Baptist and Jesus practice Mosaic law.. I have proven John the Baptist was the second coming of Elijah, as Jesus eluded to, and, Jesus practiced Mosaic Law in the judging of the Sotah. Therefore Paul went against the teaching of John and Jesus – for starters. I am sure other learned Jews in the last hundred years discovered what I discovered – after reading the New Testament, But, I could be wrong. For this reason I will use the billion dollar settlement to turn Notre Dame de Namur into a Secular Biblical College, that will produce the best Biblical Debating teams in the world. These teams will challenge the new holy leaders of Israel to four debates. If they win three of them, then the U.S. Government will release the billions of aid to The Holy Gang, who has not opposed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and may secretly back the Murderous Crusade of Killer Kirill, who declared the Ukraine was invaded in order to stop the influence of LGBTQ people – everywhere!.
I am going to ask my Jewish friend to fund our trip to Israel, where I will lead an actress to the Waling Wall – by a golden chain! I will be dressed as Uncle Sammy Clause, The Giver of Military Aid.. This actress will play the role of Miriam Starfish Christling, who is is an expert of the Torah. She will assume the role of Lilith, the first wife of Adam, and reveal the Lost Torah of The Reformed Lilith. We will be assailed by a gaggle of Hassidic youth, who will bar our way to the wailing wall. When the camera crews show up, I will announce my candidacy for Republican President. There will be much gnashing of teeth. We will be spat upon. So be it!
