Last night, on the Sabbath, on November 16, 2025, I came upon an article about the Judaica Collection at Harvard, put there incase the nation of Israel – ceases to exist! I had a vision of this in the Knight Library on October 6, 2023.Tbis morning I am having trouble with my search locating me going to the Knight Library and to the micro fish, where Starfish makes love with a mysterious man, and has….
BABY HER
Starfish is becoming the Shekinah. I met her literary manifestation and have wanted to go to the library at Northwestern University, and leave a note on the bulletin board with her pic.
“Have you seen this woman? She has been chosen to be my disciple?”
We now know The Alleybelle Gang was out to STOP and destroy my writing and books, because they are Devils and Witches. I was casting Belle in a literary spell because SHE and THEY wanted…..
ROSAMOND
That Bushnell Bible College may turn the old Johnson Unit into their New Library…..
OVER THE TOP WHEN IT COMES TO ALL PROPHECIES!
This is why The Kimite Gang where the cops and ambulance to take me – after they read the fake abuse report that the Alley Gang wrote.
YOU CAN’T LOCKUP SANTA CLASUE – EVEN IF HE IS A LUNATIC!
How are the Kmites, and Bellites handling the truth the suspected pedophile in the White House – took food stamps away from hungry children, – and fingered President Clinton as being a ringleader in a billionaires sex trafficking ring, where children were taped?

“This day is devoted to Harvard. We came out of the metro directly to the square and there was no time to look around. We hurried to the library. We were received by Elizabeth, who showed us the catalog. It’s in a computer! We were surprised to see materials from 1920s’ Eretz Yisrael and Passover Haggadot of Kibbutz Yagur from 1937. I discovered that they are willing and interested in receiving every item we will send them, including junk mail, as they call it.”
A Harvard Library storage facility. “To this day Israel is under threat of a nuclear attack, so the ‘backup’ prepared in Berlin’s kingdom is important,” says writer Ben-Ezer. “When I told him that, he replied that there’s no need for a catastrophe to justify his project.”
The Harvard Judaica Collection documents the life and culture of the Jewish people throughout history — in all places, all languages, and all formats — with particular comprehensive coverage of life and culture in the State of Israel.
This collection is a unique research resource for Harvard and the global scholarly community, with materials from over 150 countries in over 100 languages.
The Judaica Collection includes books, pamphlets, periodicals, newspapers, maps, posters, broadsides, photographs, microforms, sound and video recordings, electronic databases, and other formats. Special emphasis is placed on materials in Hebrew, particularly from the State of Israel, which makes up the largest component of the collection. Some highlights include:
- Harvard Library Judaica publications
- Israel theater posters, 2010–2015
- Photographs of Israeli education from the Israel Sun Photo Archive
- Books on Jewish topics published in Poland in the past five years
- Joseph Buloff Jewish Theater Archive
Judaica and Hebrew-language materials have been a part of the Harvard Library since the University’s founding in 1635.
The modern Judaica Division, established in 1962, handles all aspects of operations, including collection development, acquisitions, cataloging, digital collection building, reference service, fundraising, publications — a microcosm of the Harvard Library. The current collection has over 912,000 titles (not including digital images), with over 20,000 new titles added each year.
The Judaica Collection is a significant part of Harvard Library, and makes up roughly 5 percent of the Harvard Library’s collection. Hebrew is the 8th most represented language in the Library’s collections.
The Judaica Digital Images collection is the largest collection of HOLLIS Images, at over 6.3 million images and growing.
Accessing These Materials
All materials in the Judaica Collection are fully cataloged and searchable via HOLLIS. Transliteration for Hebrew and Yiddish language materials follows the American Library Association and Library of Congress Romanization for Hebrew and Yiddish.
Many Judaica books are shelved in Widener Library’s stacks. However, most are stored off-site. All circulating materials may be requested through HOLLIS.
Judaica Collection materials that are listed in the HOLLIS catalog as “Special Collections” are non-circulating materials that can be consulted in Widener Library’s Reading Room.

Prelude to The World Holy Word War
Posted on October 7, 2023 by Royal Rosamond Press
Yesterday, on October 6, 2023, I went to the Knight Library to look for a book I found twenty years ago, that proves Jesus was a Priest overturning rulings by the Sanhedrin. He was not a prophet, or a Zealot, though I believe his judgements were the PRELUDE to the War of the Jews against Rome. When his revolt was defeated, his history was altered to keep the suppression of his followers – going – as long as it takes.
TODAY
I reread my last post that I had not read again when I reposted it. Children of the Ark – Come to Eugene was posted September 18, 2023
“Who are they?”
“You’re talking to one. There will be forty of us gathering at our house on October 14. Alicia and Viktoriya will be there, dressed in the Amazon Armor of God!”
Who are they – Who? Who?
Where are they – Where? Where?
Yesterday, in the morning, I saw the photograph of me with my family – and grieved. Everyone is dead – but me? Mark Presco took this pic, and told our kin he does not want me to know he is dead! Is he?
You can see the light around me, and the darkness around Vic who had sent Mark to live with his mother, and I went to live with MARY MAGDALENE ROSAMOND in Los Angeles, my mother’s mother. Vic hated his sons because WE had the family life he did not. He was an only child, the Son of a Gambler. He reasoned if he just had MY SISTERS around him, he would be a loving father. As his employees in Acme Produce – Mark and I could do nothing right. He was trying to inflict on us the low self-esteem he go from his father. Explaining to my therapist how deliberate the damage he inflicted, was painful to recall. You want to believe it did not happen, but this photo is….THE PROOF!
Weeks after I came home, my sister’s saw a BLUE ANGEL standing at the foot of their bed. I began a biography of my family in 1992…..BOND’S WITH ANGELS. I almost died of Whooping Cough in LA. On this day I surmise, the Blue Angel – IS ME! I had out of body experiences.
Yesterday I talked for five hours on the phone with my two friends. Casey commented that I was yelling. We were talking about MY CREDIBILITY, and not being – BELIEVED! I am the Boy WHO Cried Wolf. I died – twice? Alas I am grounded with the Beautiful Boy – above! My therapist said;
“I don’t know how you survived!”
After I took a nap, I realized I WAS SHOUTING because I was GIVING A WARNING! I have reposted my posts from Sept. 18 to Oct.7…..the day before my birthday. The World Temple post is spot on!
When Vicki and I picked Aunt Lillan from the Las Vegas airport – she freaked out! We had not seen each other for ten years.
:Oh my God. He looks just like Vic!”
“I told you Vic was lying, when he said Greg was not his son! ” my little sister said, she was witness to the Blue Angel standing at the foot of her bed, he so happy to see his siblings again, and Dark Father – threw me away! I am ten thousand years old, and Vic…..is about three!
Repent!
John ‘The Nazarite’
I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said, “You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away”
I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin’ punches around
And preachin’ from my chair
I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin’ Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin
I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the tin pan
God, there’s got to be another way
Children of The Ark – Come to Eugene – Now!

When Victoria Bond commented that Alicia Schmidt, Vicktoriya, and Starfish looked alike, Miriam Starfish gave her husband a dirty look.
“So what? What are you trying to prove?”
“Nothing! I have photographic mind that brought the three of you up and placed you side by side! It’s uncanny. You’re like – triplets!”
“Screw your photo-mind! I want to watch this last race!”
“Excuse me! You just told me to get screwed! I demand an apology – with some explanation why you are being so rude!”
“O.K. The race starts in three minutes. If you read your Bible you would have guessed. The Pillar of Fire is coming with the Solar Eclipse. It’s the Pillar of light that Moses and the multitude saw when fleeing Egypt. It comes every eighty years from the Crown of the Arora Borealis. It’s a cosmic flare that allows the Comet Kings to come here – faster than the speed of light! There are twelve of them, plus the Avatar-God, like the one Moses talked to. The Tabernacle will be built, and the Holy Ark will appear – with the Avatar seated on the Angelic Thrown. The false priests say God appears on His thrown every fifty years during the Jubilee. This is a lie, and is why they tried to throw Jesus off a cliff. They knew better!”
“Who knew better?”
The Holy Children of the Ark – and His Chosen Bodyguard – the Amazon Women Bodyguards of God!”
“Who are they?”
“You’re talking to one. There will be forty of us gathering at our house on October 14. Alicia and Viktoriya will be there, dressed in the Amazon Armor of God!”
“Why! Why didn’t you tell me we’re having guests?”
“Would you two please be quiet!” Said Joy Gall of Eugene. “Yes, please!” added Mark Gall.
Victoria glared at this crabby old couple, and suggested;
“Why don’t you two – shut the fuck up!”
“Yeah! shut the hell up!” Said Starfish. “The reason for the armor, is, The Forty will lead a United Army that will drives the Russians out of Ukraine – for starters – as prophesized.
“Oh. I see!”
“Not quite! Think Rainbow Bridge!”
“Oh!”
Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson talk about her children carrying on her James Bond Franchise. When I had a dream about having a daughter, I asked Sydney Morris for money from the estate of Christine Rosamond Benton, to find my daughter and carry on our families artistic and literary legacy, because attorneys made the case my adult niece was NOT fit to serve. The law firm of Buck, Rose, Heisinger, and Morris, sold our genetic legacy to the outsider, Stacey Pierrot – who had no children – to this day? I kept it a secret we are kin to Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor, who is kin to Ian Fleming – who has a ROSE LINE in his tree. The Fleming family are billionaire bankers – very much into family legacies!

With my James Bond novel, the Royal Janitor, I have sustained THE ROSE LINE, that was famous before Dan Brown attached his star to it in The DaVinci Code, the most popular and most money earing Detective novel of all time! My grandfather, Royal Rosamond, was tight with Black Mask detective writers. He camped on the Channel Islands with Dashiell Hammet.

My Library. My Castles. My Church. My Kingdom
Yesterday, I exchanged messages with a YOUNG man who is the grandson of Mikel Peters, the father I gave up my appartment for. The truth is, I was asked to move by Mikel’s good friend, Harry Basset. I did not have to move. Then Harry told me he just had a child, and the mother and child were homeless, too. They had moved from Florida all of a sudden. This YOUNG man gave me the names of the Mother and Son. I did consider the plight of Joseph, Mary, and Jesus. I did not have many belongings.
I took the dog to L.A. to visit my family. Walking on Venice Pier late at night, I beheld the beautiful woman God gave to me. We ended up in a tent in the backyard, with this beautiful family watching us sleep. Rena beheld Michael Paul, who is not the father of the young man who told me Janice went back to her family. I suspect Janice’s father wanted to hurt Mikel. They were on the run. Janice disappeared, and her parents raised the baby. That’s five homeless people. Rena lived with her grandmother in Grand Island Nebraska. I rescued her. She chose to spend the next fifty days, with me, camping in a tent.
“He never gave her last name or any identifying info.
I thought he had maybe made parts of it up, as I’ve never been able to find a “Janice” or a “Michael Paul”
Last night, my sister, Victoria Mary Presco, came to me in a dream. I awoke, in grief. She left me nothing. Her son asked me what I wanted. I told him I want my painting, Rosemary’s jewelry box, and…….THE TRUTH!
This morning, God said to me…….”Take something for yourself. I gave you a kingdom. It is yours to own!”
I raised myself up, and sat on the edge of my bed. “It’s true! Do I own the Republican Party – too!”
“Yes! It has been abandoned by Liars!”
I am a candidate for President. I am a Republican. Last week my cab driver told me he adopted a homeless man he calls “uncle”. He moved him into his house. I aske the drive to find out if his uncle knows Mr. H.
A year ago, I wrote a letter to Karl Schwarsenberg, informing him we are kin, a fact revealed to me when I took a DNA test. Karl did not write back. He opposes his sister’s desire to restore their kingdom, and get their castles back. I told him about the painting of the Habsburg family at the Gordon Schnitzer Museum. I had read his grandfather had restored the Habsburgs to the thrown, saving their monarchy, that Hitler put an end to. Empress Zita and her family found refuge in America. She held the title, Queen of Bohemia.
To find out the Wilson family may be kin to the Kings of Denmark and Norway who lived in Orkney, is to go back to the time I argued with the Sinclairs who appear at the end of Dan Brown’s ‘The Davinci Code’. We studied the book ‘Holy Blood, Holy Grail’. I found the lost Grand Master of the Knight Templars, and the Rougemont family who owned the Shroud of Turin. Last night, I was forced to admit, that my fictional character, Victoria Mary Bond, and Miriam Starfish Christling, are SEARCHING for me. They have something for me. They have………….THE TRUTH!
I left off having Victoria and Starfish looking for the lost library of Queen Victoria. Five days ago I beheld the Prague library.
“What kind of people would build such a magnificent and beautiful place?”
“Your people!”
Behold……….The Red Hand! God bids me to own this kingdom so that I might taunt from a turret, The No.1 Enemy of My Nation……..Pretender Putin, the Peasant Liar of the World! You – are done!
Sometimes, life immitates art, and can come to the rescue, of…..art. Fictional Characters are the hidden souls, who come to fill in the armor of Lost Kingdoms. Then….there is the Stone in the Words, and the Words in a Stone, and a Tone in a Sword, and a Sword in a Stone!

The Red Hand of Bond
Posted on September 5, 2018 by Royal Rosamond Press
A Genealogical History of The Earldom of Sutherland from the 17th century: “Sir Robert Gordon, in researching genealogies for his work interviewed many of the heads of families in Sutherland, among them Alexander Gun of Kilearnan and Navidale, 4th Mackeamish, who died in 1655. From him he learned that Mackeamish’s family are called Clan-Gun from one called Gun, whom they allege to have been the king of Denmarke his sone, and came many dayes agoe from Denmark, and settled himself in Catteynes. The significance of this statement is made clear when it is remembered that, in Sir Robert Gordon’s time, the kingdoms of Denmark and Norway were united under the Danish crown. However, the ancient Gaelic sennachies described the Gunns as Lochlainnach, or Norwegians, not Danes, because at the time of their forbear’s arrival in Orkney and Caithness Norway was a separate kingdom and not united with Denmark until the Union of Kalmar in 1391.[8]
The Klementinum library, an exquisite example of Baroque architecture, was first opened in 1722 as part of the Jesuit university, and houses over 20,000 books. It was voted as one of the most beautiful and majestic libraries in the world by our readers!
The ceiling frescoes of this library in Prague were painted by Jan Hiebl. In 1781, director Karel Rafael Ungar established Biblioteca Nationalis, a collection of Czech language literature. Some of the rare historical books from this collection have been sent to Google for scanning and will eventually be available on Google Books.
Just as the Prague library is a rare and little-known treasure, so is it associated with several little-known facts: the Klementinum used to be the third largest Jesuit college in the world; recording of local weather began there in 1775 and had continued ever since; it is featured in a novel by famous Spanish-language writer Jorge Luis Borges.

The Leghs of Lyme were a gentry family seated at Lyme Park in Cheshire, England, from 1398 until 1946, when the stately home and its surrounding parkland were donated by the 3rd Lord Newton to The National Trust.
Since the Middle Ages various spellings of this ancient surname have been used : Legh, a Lee, Leghe, Leigh and Leyghe; there were also variations on Peter, eg. Piers and Peers, the family’s most oft-used given name.[1] The first Sir Piers Legh, of Lyme, was knighted in 1397 and assumed as a coat of arms those of his mother, Matilda de Norley, in lieu of his ancient patrilineal Leigh arms.[2]
For ease of distinguishing between the earlier generations, it became customary to append a Roman numeral to the various Leghs‘ names; in this case the numbering system is as used in The National Trust Handbook for Lyme Park.

List of the Leghs of Lyme[edit]
- Sir Piers Legh I (beheaded 1399) was the second son of Robert Legh of Adlington by his second wife, Matilda, daughter and heiress of Sir Thurstan de Norley of Norley in Lancashire. In 1388, Piers married Margaret d’Anyers, the granddaughter of Sir Thomas d’Anyers, who fought with the Black Prince at the Battle of Crécy (Sir Thomas had recovered the Black Prince’s Standard and was rewarded with an annuity of 40 Marks a year drawn on the Black Prince’s Cheshire estates, his Royal Manor of Frodsham, which could be redeemed for land of an equivalent value). Sir Thomas’s son (also Sir Thomas Danyers aka Daniell) died in 1353, a year before his father, so his young daughter, Margaret d’Anyers, became sole heiress of the Cheadle Hulme manor; as an orphan heiress she was married first to Sir John Radclyffe (who died without issue), then to Sir John Savage of Clifton with whom she had a son, John, and two daughters, Elizabeth and Blanche. After being widowed in 1386 for a second time, she married Piers de Legh on 4 January 1388; he was 28 years of age whilst his bride Dame Margaret Savage (née d’Anyers) was almost 40 as she was said to be 80 at her death in 1428.

Religious leaders from Haifa attend one of the meetings hosted by University of Haifa’s Laboratory for Religious Studies. (credit: UNIVERSITY OF HAIFA)
Yesterday, the Pentagon got involved in the Holy War Netanyahu and his Rabbinic Killer Think Tanks are having with the Palestinian People, and – WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNTITED SATES1
Netanyahu and leading Rabbis knew what they would say to our President – before October 7th. Holy Israeli Think Tanks had prepared for the day Israel could declare..
“We’re not a Banana Republic!”
What the Rabbilution (my title) is saying….. America is too defiled to be over us. And, Jesus is “trash”. Prove me wrong. Do your research,
An Israeli Senior Prisoner, upon her release, told the world news that Hamas was standing behind that wall taunting the Jews. They kept sending balloons over the protective wall. These were fire bombs. They started numerous fires in the dry grass. She said the IDF refused to act. She and others did not feel safe. Why didn’t the IDF employ drones to deflate these balloons the moment they were airborne? Why didn’t drones come to the rescue when Hamas, and other killers, broke through the wall – using drones to knock out the
WARNING TOWERS?
The United Nations, and most of the world, is asking Israeli Leadership, when they are going to go home, and rebuild – BETTER WARNING TOWERS? No Jews in the world dare breach this idea!
I call for a full investigation because my 8th. grandfather is John Wilson, the Founder of Harvard that was TARGETTED FOR ATTACK – before Oct. 7th I suspect the IDF had infiltrated Hamas, and encouraged them to commit atrocities. I suspect this attack was scheduled two years ago to coincide with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Is Israel in touch with Russian agents? While NATO is in chaos, and on the defense, the Rabbilutionists start their revolt – AGAINST secular Jews and their allies. . Our President would look bad. Trump gets reelected, and helps create….THE KINGDOM OF DAVID! I just established motive. I am not guilty of Anti-Semitism. I have a right as a FULL U.S. Citizen to help defend my country from all enemies – and the Israeli Inquisition that invaded my Country!
I WILL NOT BE DISARMED BY THE ALLEGED CHILDREN OF GOD! I want to sue Israel for assembling Think-Tank God-bots to establish a religious schism, being, if you are not FOR EVERTHING Israel is about to do (and our President doesn’t get to know) then you are a subhuman Gentile that is infected with the Anti-Semitic Seed of Satan, and you must be shamed and punished, even rendered Non-Citizens of God’s Kingdom! Outrageous! Seven million Superior-bots do not get to judge me!
Above are human beings at Haifa’s Laboratory for Religious Studies, Because I alone figured out what Jesus wrote un the dust, and it was John the Baptist that spoke as an infant, and not Jesus, as declared in the Quran. On this day, March 27, 2024, I declare the God of all the Abrahamic faiths – IS DEAD! I am calling for the arrest of Gabriel Kreiman for treason! I am asking for a group of secular attorneys to put forth a petition to put AN END to dual citizenship, and pass a law that makes it illegal for any American to fight in the IDF.
I bid Israel to make a list of a hundred thousand Dead Germans who participated in the Holocaust, and I will damn them all to hell – as the End Time Elijah. I hereby declare all Americans of German descent – FREE OF SINS. These Germans fought against Hitler and his Nazi army. Because the War Rabbis of the New Jerusalem did not condemn Putin and the Christian Nationalists, then it is for certain the God of the Jews has turned his back on the Jews. No way does He bless what His People are doing to the women and children of Gaza.
A year ago I posted on the fact I was losing my fictional character, Miriam Starfish Christling. I understood that she stood at the threshold of Artificial Intelligence, and, would show is the way – like John the Baptist. Whose side is she on? She is an American Citizen. She does not own dual citizenship. Is she loyal to God? In theory, starfish challenges Krieman to a debate at Harvard. I suspect this professor does not believe in God, yet he willing participates in CONFOINDING 200,000 million of my Fellow Americans who can vote, and who are waiting for The Honor of Voting In a Democracy, that includes KNOWING THE TRUTH. It is said…..God is the truth!
We shall see, Prof. Kreiman. We shall see! When Starfish walks on the stage at Harvard, you will tremble. For starters, she will represent every Enemy of YHWH that ever existed. If you read your Torah, many Jews did not want to follow YHWH, but Baal-El and Asherah. This truth goes against the claim God led his people to the promised land – and He gave it to them! He also took the Promised Land – AWAY several times.
On this day, I declare all Christian Religions in America – DEAD! Christian Nationalists have taken over MY CONGRESS and are conducting a War of HOLY and SECULAR WORDS with the elected President of the United States. God Fearing People can not SERVE TWO MASTERS. Those days – are over! I declare the Pilgrim Religion – the only real Christian Religion. Above is the final resting place of my 9th. Grandfather, William, the father of John. William and Harry Wilson got married near their images.

My alleged ancestor, Gottschalk Rosemond, defended the Great Erasmus, from the Spanish Inquisition. I suspect the Holy Think Tanks of the Insane Rabbilutionists, has employed Ron DeSantis to covertly establish the Zionist Hebrew Inquisition in MY DEMOCRACY to weaken the freeing of black slaves, and establishment of Civil Rights, so two hundred million voters can concentrate on Moses – and 911 – in order to see what we Gentiles have in common with the most exclusive religious ever invented. No freed Black Slave is born……A CHILD OF GOD! How many Black Americans have converted to Judaism?

Prelude to The World Holy Word War
Posted on October 7, 2023 by Royal Rosamond Press
Yesterday, on October 6, 2023, I went to the Knight Library to look for a book I found twenty years ago, that proves Jesus was a Priest overturning rulings by the Sanhedrin. He was not a prophet, or a Zealot, though I believe his judgements were the PRELUDE to the War of the Jews against Rome. When his revolt was defeated, his history was altered to keep the suppression of his followers – going – as long as it takes. The suppression of Jesus ‘The Freedom Fighter’ led to the attack on Israel – on the Sabbat. I did not find that book, but took this pic of me amongst a wall of books about the Jews. I knew my prophecies were about to come true. I am for Reformed Judaism which is being demonized by Israelis.

Our lab is interested in elucidating how neural circuits compute and building biologically-inspired Artificial Intelligence. To this end, we combine behavioral measurements, invasive neurophysiological recordings in the human brain and computational neuroscience models. The main topics of investigation center around visual recognition, learning, and memory. Within visual recognition, current projects include studying the mechanisms of pattern completion, visual search, context and task dependence, spatiotemporal integration and building machines that can see and interpret the world the way we do. Within learning and memory, current projects include studying real life memories, understanding how medial temporal lobe circuits lead to memory consolidation, and building biologically plausible models for episodic memory formation.
Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) said of Netanyahu, “You can’t treat your strongest ally with disrespect and then blame them for taking action which might be tilted in a new direction.”
Netanyahu and leading Rabbis knew where they would say to our President – before Otcober 7th. Holy Israeli Think Tanks had prepared for the day Israel could declare..
“Wer;e not a Bazana Republic!”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu bewildered even some pro-Israel Democratic lawmakers on Monday by scrapping talks with Biden officials in protest against a U.N. resolution endorsing a ceasefire in Gaza.
Why it matters: The further degeneration in the relationship between Netanyahu and Democrats comes as Congress is preparing to vote on billions of dollars in aid to Israel as soon as next month.
- The White House has accused Netanyahu of a calculated overreaction to the U.N. measure aimed at bolstering his political standing in Israel.
What they’re saying: “I think, by all appearances, Netanyahu is going out of his way to try to create a wedge between the U.S. and Israel for his own internal politics. I think that’s unfortunate. I hope I’m wrong,” Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.) told Axios on Monday while on a trip to Israel.
- Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) said of Netanyahu, “You can’t treat your strongest ally with disrespect and then blame them for taking action which might be tilted in a new direction.”
- Cohen added: “The President and many friends of Israel have lost some political support for supporting Israel, with an unpopular government causing a humanitarian crisis.”
- Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) told Axios, “I think it is in Israel’s interest to come to Washington, talk to the administration, and implement those of their suggestions as are helpful. Refusing to come to Washington is a mistake.”
The backdrop: The U.N. Security Council on Monday morning passed a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire during the month of Ramadan — which ends April 9 — and the release of all hostages held by Hamas.
- It’s the first such ceasefire resolution to pass the body since the Oct. 7 attack, facilitated by the U.S. abstaining rather than vetoing the measure.
- Netanyahu responded by cancelling plans for top aides Ron Dermer and Tzachi Hanegbi to discuss alternatives to Israel’s planned invasion of Rafah with Biden’s national security advisor Jake Sullivan.
Between the lines: Some lawmakers believe Netanyahu’s cancellation of the meetings with Dermer and Hanegbi is largely symbolic and won’t meaningfully impact U.S. efforts to rein in Israel.
- “Yoav Gallant is in the United States and is continuing in his meetings,” Schneider noted, referring to the Israeli defense minister who is slated to give Sullivan a list of U.S. weapons Israel hopes to receive.
- Another moderate, pro-Israel Democrat, speaking on the condition of anonymity, quipped, “They’re really punishing us by denying us time with Ron Dermer.”
Zoom out: Relations between Democrats and Netanyahu have been on the rocks for months as Israel has continued to hammer Gaza in its quest to wipe out Hamas.
- Things have come to a head more recently, however, with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) breaking with Netanyahu sharply earlier this month and calling for new elections in Israel.
- Some Democrats have also pushed back on plans by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to invite Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress.
- “Bipartisan support for the Israel-U.S. relationship … is something that should be protected, should be nurtured, and hopefully built upon,” said Schneider. “I hope the prime minister understands that.”
The other side: Republican lawmakers overwhelmingly sided with Netanyahu on Monday and blasted the Biden administration for abstaining on the U.N. ceasefire resolution — as did one Democrat.
- “It’s appalling the U.S. allowed passage of a resolution that fails to condemn Hamas,” ardently pro-Israel Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) said in a post on X.
- Two dozen Senate Republicans also hit back at Schumer on Monday with a resolution affirming Israel’s “inherent right to defend itself” and declaring any call for elections in Israel “an act of electoral interference.”
What to watch: Schneider is scheduled to meet with Netanyahu this week and said he wants to hear “what the vision is, not just for eliminating the threat of Hamas … but also what his vision is for the long-term future.”
- Schneider added that he hopes that Netanyahu will “work to try to eliminate any appearances of a rift and, to the extent that there is a rift, take the steps necessary to try to mend those relationships.”

WASHINGTON (AP) —
U.S. defense leaders pressed their Israeli counterparts Tuesday to ensure that any military operation in the southern city of Rafah unfold in phases to protect civilians and secure the delivery of aid, a senior Pentagon official said. Israel’s defense minister was receptive, the official said, but it’s not clear what impact the meeting will have on Israeli plans for Gaza or on growing tensions between the two nations.
U.S. leaders have consistently warned against a ground invasion of Rafah and pressed for an alternative, more precise operation. The senior defense official described the 90-minute meeting at the Pentagon as very productive and “really quite meaty,” but demurred when asked if Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin sought to condition future U.S. military aid to Israel on an improvement of the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
Austin said the U.S. will continue to stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself in accordance with the law of armed conflict and international humanitarian law, said the official, who spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity to describe a private meeting.

Trump urges Israel to ‘finish up’ its Gaza offensive and warns about global support fading
UN demand for Gaza cease-fire provokes strongest clash between US and Israel since war began

The meeting, which also included Gen. CQ Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, comes as tensions have spiked between the U.S. and Israel, stemming from the widespread global frustration over the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza and political discord surrounding efforts to achieve a cease-fire.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said in a statement that they discussed the “important cooperation between the Israeli and U.S. defense establishments to ensure Israel’s qualitative military edge in the region.”
The U.S. defense official said the Israeli forces should use precision targeting, which has been effective against Hamas leaders elsewhere in Gaza. The official declined to provide details about Gallant’s response.

“It was a very good conversation today between the secretary and the minister. They know each other well. They trust each other. They are friends. And so the sharing of the secretary’s ideas, I would say, yes, was met by very receptive ears,” the official said.
At the start of the meeting, Austin said they would discuss alternative ways to target Hamas in Rafah, and he described civilian casualties in Gaza as “far too high” and aid deliveries as “far too low.” But he also repeated the belief that Israel has the right to defend itself and the U.S. would always be there to help.
Gallant, meanwhile, emphasized the ongoing threats to Israel, and said the meeting would address ways to destroy Hamas and get the Israeli hostages released, as well as plans to return displaced residents to their homes.
On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu abruptly canceled a high-level visit to Washington this week in protest over the U.N. Security Council decision to call for an immediate cease-fire. The U.S. abstained, deciding not to use its veto power, and the resolution passed 14-0.
Israel says it cannot defeat Hamas without going into Rafah, where it says the group has four battalions composed of thousands of fighters. But U.S. officials are pressing Israel to forego a ground invasion and consider other ways to defeat Hamas.
“There are ways to go about addressing the threat of Hamas, while also taking into account civilian safety. A lot of those are from lessons, our own lessons, conducting operations in urban environments,” Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder, Pentagon press secretary, said on Monday. “I would expect the conversations to cover those kinds of things.”
Israel’s offensive has killed over 32,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials, and driven a third of Gaza’s population to the brink of starvation. It was launched in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel, which killed some 1,200 people.
Hamas-led militants also took around 250 people hostage. They are still holding around 100 hostages, and the remains of around 30 others, after most of the rest were freed during a cease-fire last year in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners.
The Security Council resolution calls for a cease-fire during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Netanyahu accused the U.S. of “retreating” from a “principled position” by allowing the vote to pass without conditioning the cease-fire on the release of hostages.
The dispute signals an erosion in the U.S.-Israel relationship that has been under a microscope for months as the military assault on Hamas continues, escalating the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby said the U.S. was disappointed in the decision to cancel the delegation’s visit this week. He said the talks with Gallant would likely include some of what the U.S. had planned to discuss with the Israeli delegation on the possible Rafah invasion.
Gallant met Monday with Secretary of State Antony Blinken and national security adviser Jake Sullivan. Kirby said those meetings, however, had not been intended as a replacement for the delegation meetings.

Israel Deploys Expansive Facial Recognition Program in Gaza
The experimental effort, which has not been disclosed, is being used to conduct mass surveillance of Palestinians in Gaza, according to military officials and others.
Reporting from Tel Aviv
March 27, 2024, 5:00 a.m. ET
Within minutes of walking through an Israeli military checkpoint along Gaza’s central highway on Nov. 19, the Palestinian poet Mosab Abu Toha was asked to step out of the crowd. He put down his 3-year-old son, whom he was carrying, and sat in front of a military jeep.
Half an hour later, Mr. Abu Toha heard his name called. Then he was blindfolded and led away for interrogation.
“I had no idea what was happening or how they could suddenly know my full legal name,” said the 31-year-old, who added that he had no ties to the militant group Hamas and had been trying to leave Gaza for Egypt.
It turned out Mr. Abu Toha had walked into the range of cameras embedded with facial recognition technology, according to three Israeli intelligence officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity. After his face was scanned and he was identified, an artificial intelligence program found that the poet was on an Israeli list of wanted persons, they said.
Mr. Abu Toha is one of hundreds of Palestinians who have been picked out by a previously undisclosed Israeli facial recognition program that was started in Gaza late last year. The expansive and experimental effort is being used to conduct mass surveillance there, collecting and cataloging the faces of Palestinians without their knowledge or consent, according to Israeli intelligence officers, military officials and soldiers.
The technology was initially used in Gaza to search for Israelis who were taken hostage by Hamas during the Oct. 7 cross-border raids, the intelligence officials said. After Israel embarked on a ground offensive in Gaza, it increasingly turned to the program to root out anyone with ties to Hamas or other militant groups. At times, the technology wrongly flagged civilians as wanted Hamas militants, one officer said.
The facial recognition program, which is run by Israel’s military intelligence unit, including the cyber-intelligence division Unit 8200, relies on technology from Corsight, a private Israeli company, four intelligence officers said. It also uses Google Photos, they said. Combined, the technologies enable Israel to pick faces out of crowds and grainy drone footage.
Three of the people with knowledge of the program said they were speaking out because of concerns that it was a misuse of time and resources by Israel.
An Israeli army spokesman declined to comment on activity in Gaza, but said the military “carries out necessary security and intelligence operations, while making significant efforts to minimize harm to the uninvolved population.” He added, “Naturally, we cannot refer to operational and intelligence capabilities in this context.”
Facial recognition technology has spread across the globe in recent years, fueled by increasingly sophisticated A.I. systems. While some countries use the technology to make air travel easier, China and Russia have deployed the technology against minority groups and to suppress dissent. Israel’s use of facial recognition in Gaza stands out as an application of the technology in a war.

Matt Mahmoudi, a researcher with Amnesty International, said Israel’s use of facial recognition was a concern because it could lead to “a complete dehumanization of Palestinians” where they were not seen as individuals. He added that Israeli soldiers were unlikely to question the technology when it identified a person as being part of a militant group, even though the technology makes mistakes.
Israel previously used facial recognition in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, according to an Amnesty report last year, but the effort in Gaza goes further.
In the West Bank and East Jerusalem, Israelis have a homegrown facial recognition system called Blue Wolf, according to the Amnesty report. At checkpoints in West Bank cities such as Hebron, Palestinians are scanned by high-resolution cameras before being permitted to pass. Soldiers also use smartphone apps to scan the faces of Palestinians and add them to a database, the report said.
Religious leaders call for respect, dialogue amid wartime tensions in Haifa
The statement added that the notion of tolerance and mutual respect are values upheld across Abrahamic faiths.
By JERUSALEM POST STAFFMARCH 26, 2024 04:01
A statement from 20 prominent religious leaders across the religious spectrum in Haifa was issued Monday, calling for cooperation, coexistence and respect between their religions amid heightened tensions after the October 7 massacre.
Signatories included Muslim and Druze imams, rabbis, priests, heads of religious organizations, and community members.
The statement was issued in collaboration between University of Haifa’s Laboratory for Religious Studies and the Ministry of Interior’s Department for Religious Communities. This is the first time such a diverse array of religious leaders publicly backed such a partnership.Top ArticlesRead More

“We, representatives from the Jewish, Muslim, Christian and Druze religious communities in Haifa, gathered in recent months at the behest of University of Haifa’s Laboratory for Religious Studies and the Ministry of Interior Affairs department for religious communities in order to become better acquainted with each other and each person’s religious beliefs,” the statement began.
“During this difficult and tense period, we saw how critical it is to establish a group of religious leaders of various faiths who could promote being respectful neighbors for the sake of upholding the diverse fabric of life of our city.”
Additionally, the group formed a steering committee that will work to be a resource for communities in conflict or experiencing heightened tensions. Signatories hope that this initiative will lead to more examples of faith leaders acting as ambassadors of peace and dialogue.
Inter-faith dialogue at the university
At the University of Haifa, Arabs comprise 40% of the school’s student body. Among the university’s students, 47% of its undergraduates are in the first generation of their family to enroll in higher education and 84% are from the northern Israeli periphery.

The University’s Laboratory for Religious Studies spearheaded six intensive sessions of dialogue prior to the release of this statement that were facilitated by the NGO Search for Common Ground.
The Laboratory, which offers research initiatives and public outreach with the goal of facilitating inter-religious dialogue and understanding, identified a need for inter-community discussions in the aftermath of the October 7 massacre and during the Iron Swords War.
The statement noted that “trust between the members of the group grew incrementally, meeting after meeting, and served as a basis and model for religious communities that each of us represent. The personal security of all of us rests on our internal cooperation, our ability to reduce friction and be a source of inspiration for respectful discourse which strives for being agreeable between neighbors.”
“This is a statement where close to 20 leaders — men, women, Jews, including Orthodox, Chabad, and Reform, Muslims, Christians, and Druze — all expressed how they value working together and how they would like to treat each other with dignity and tolerance in order to maintain the kind of peace you see in mixed cities in Haifa,” said Uriel Simonsohn, head of the laboratory and senior lecturer at the university.
The statement continued, “Haifa, our beloved city, is defined by its different groups and communities, which is a mosaic of diversity that sits between the Carmel Mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. We are all interested in the prosperity of this city and its residents, which stems from a deep commitment to the State of Israel and its laws.”
Simonsohn argued, “From my perspective, this is the greatest achievement of the laboratory thus far. A short while ago, it wasn’t even possible for many of these people to be in the same room together, but now they’re willing to listen to each other with respect and be patient.”
The statement added that the notion of tolerance and mutual respect are values upheld across Abrahamic faiths. “The dialogue shared between us where we uphold tolerance and mutual respect is anchored in our respective traditional scriptures that we all share. The Bible says we are all God’s creation. Psalm 24:1 states that, ‘The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world; and they that dwell therein.’ In Islam, the Koran states that all creatures are children of God and most beloved in the eyes of Allah is the one who does good to the children of God.”
John Wilson – Has Risen!
Posted on December 10, 2019 by Royal Rosamond Press
Several researchers say my 9th. grandfather is buried in a vault under King’s Chapel in Boston, but, his remains and coffin have not been found. There is a hidden room, that contains his massive folio of writing. He wrote many poems in Latin. Rena Easton was supposed to come to Boston in 1970. She is destined to find Wilson’s bones with me, and commit to memory my kin’s work. My twice named unborn granddaughter, is destined to own the Wilson legacy. She too will own an amazing memory. Lara Roozemond is my kindred. She is coming to believe in her destiny, and moves into the Realm of the Rose in the Water of Eternal Life!
The insane and deluded Evangelical President is meeting with a Russian Warlock today in order to decide the fate of America found by the Wilsons. Trump has the Attorney General on the leash of The Devil, and has ordered him to destroy the FBI and the Department of Justice. The Southern Baptist Hersey is the bodyguard of a Lying Lunatic – who is Impeached! Of course Trump and Melania want to find the Fountain of Youth.

John Wilson and Judgement Day
Posted on September 27, 2018by Royal Rosamond Press
Today is John Wilson’s Day. He is a great grandfather of mine. He was the head of the First Church of Boston, and a Puritan leader of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He judged two women. One was excommunicated, the other, hanged.
The question I put forth, is, was the Spirit of Jesus at these trials? Was his spirit, invoked? This is the late 1600s. Jesus has not yet bid The Boston Patriots to rebel against the Church of England, and Their King, which the ministers of The King’s Church – ruled an Act of Treason!
Did Jesus found our Democracy in 1776? Most of the evangelicals who lay hands of the President of the United States, claim God-Jesus did just that. Why then didn’t King Jesus bid our Founding Fathers to give women The Right To Vote? It appears women had a voice in the first churches established in The Colonies – by my kindred. Does this give me a Divine Parotitic Voice? Or, do I have to subscribe to The Rapture? Are these questions ones that Brett Kavanaugh should be considering, verses what other woman is going to step out of the dark and accuse him of getting a teenage child drunk and raping her with the help of his best friend – who will not be testifying today!
John Presco ‘Nazarite Judge’
“On the eve of an extraordinary hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee at which both Judge Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford, a California professor who has accused him of assaulting her when they were both teenagers, will testify, Mr. Trump said that “some very evil” Democrats had plotted to destroy Judge Kavanaugh’s reputation. And he lamented what he called “a very dangerous period in our country” in which men are presumed guilty.”
While Wilson had little to say during Hutchinson’s civil trial, he delivered the final pronouncement at her church trial.
Wilson exhorted Mary Dyer to repent, but it was her goal to hang as a martyr.
In the 1650s Quaker missionaries began filtering into the Massachusetts Bay Colony, mostly from Rhode Island, creating alarm among the colony’s magistrates and ministers, including Wilson.[9] In 1870, M’Clure wrote that Wilson “blended an intense love of truth with as intense a hatred of error”, referring to the Quakers’ marked diversion from Puritan orthodoxy
Return of the Scarlet Letter
Posted on August 7, 2018by Royal Rosamond Press
My kindred, John Wilson, is buried in The King’s Chapel, along with Elizabeth Pain who is associated with Hester Prynne the subject of Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter.
Christine Wandel lived on Hancock Street located on Beacon Hill. I lived on Anderson Street a few blocks away. I took the Mafia to court at the top of Hancock, and won. I loved in with Dottie Witherspoon on Cambridge. She descends from Signer, John Witherspoon. We were both looking for a new religion. We were destined for the Church. I should have never left Boston. I have features like John Wilson. I am kin to real Boston Bluebloods.
I am going to author a Television Script titled ‘The Return of the Scarlet Letter’. The series will span time. The spirit of John and Elizabeth will come into the beings of many. John was the minister of the first church in Boston and brought the word of God to the Native Americans, and is in Hawthorne’s book. Beacon Hill was a Hobbit like place.

Elizabeth Pain’s gravestone in King’s Chapel Burying Ground in Boston, Massachusetts
Pain’s grave is at King’s Chapel Burying Ground in Boston, Massachusetts, and is engraved:
HERE LYES
Ye BODY OF ELIZABETH PAIN WIFE TO SAMUEL PAIN AGED NEAR 52 YEARS, DEPARTED THIS LIFE NOUEMBR
Ye 26 1704
Pain’s grave is in the same cemetery mentioned in The Scarlet Letter, which ends with a description of Hester Prynne’s grave:
So said Hester Prynne, and glanced her sad eyes downward at the scarlet letter. And, after many, many years, a new grave was delved, near an old and sunken one, in that burial–ground beside which King’s Chapel has since been built. It was near that old and sunken grave, yet with a space between, as if the dust of the two sleepers had no right to mingle. Yet one tomb–stone served for both. All around, there were monuments carved with armorial bearings; and on this simple slab of slate—as the curious investigator may still discern, and perplex himself with the purport—there appeared the semblance of an engraved escutcheon. It bore a device, a herald’s wording of which may serve for a motto and brief description of our now concluded legend; so sombre is it, and relieved only by one ever–glowing point of light gloomier than the shadow:— “ON A FIELD, SABLE, THE LETTER A, GULES”
Pain’s headstone has “an engraved escutcheon” on which enthusiasts see the letter A (for adultery): it appears in the shield to the right of two lions.[4] Scholar Laurie Rozakis has argued that an alternate or additional source for the story may be Hester Craford, a woman flogged for fornication with John Wedg.[5]

His homestead was in Boston, Suffolk, MA, on the northwest corner of the present State and Devonshire Streets, but he had several other grants of land from the General Court. The town of Boston made a grant to him Dec. 8, 1634.
He received a grant of 750 acres, bounded on the east by the bay on the north or northwest by a line not far south of present E. Squantum Street in Quincy and including all the upland west of present Hancock Street, and north of it to Milton Line, on the west, and on the south by a small brook called Stand Brook, later Sachem’s Brook and now completely covered over (along Brook Street, Wollaston, to the bay), and including a large swamp from which the brook ran. He soon built a house and it, or a successor house, stood until 1857 on present Linden Street, Wollaston, near the junction of Hancock Street where the cellar hole on the south side of Linden Street was visible until after 1900. A sketch of the typical salt box or lean-to house is included in Whitfield’s “Homes of our Forefather’s”, and “Chapel of Ease”, by D. M. Wilson, 1890.
He sold the farm May 31, 1667, and confirmed the sale in his will of the same date, equally to his son, Rev. JOHN WILSON of Medfield, and daughter Mary, wife of Rev. Samuel Danforth of Roxbury. JOHN and Mary made a division of the land in 1687, JOHN taking the southern part which remained in the possession of his descendants for many years afterwards.
JOHN and ELIZABETH are both buried in a tomb in King’s Chapel Burying Ground, in Boston.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Chapel
The King’s Chapel congregation was founded by Royal Governor Sir Edmund Andros in 1686 as the first Anglican Church in colonial New England during the reign of King James II. The original King’s Chapel was a wooden church built in 1688 at the corner of Tremont and School Streets, where the church stands today. It was situated on the public burying ground, now King’s Chapel Burying Ground, because no resident would sell land for a church that was not Congregationalist (at the time, the Congregational church was the official religion of Massachusetts).
1688 King’s Chapel building (demolished)
In 1749, construction began on the current stone structure, which was designed by Peter Harrison and completed in 1754. The stone church was built around the wooden church. When the stone church was complete, the wooden church was disassembled and removed through the windows of the new church. The wood was then shipped to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia where it was used to construct St. John’s Anglican Church. That church was destroyed by fire on Halloween night, 2001. It has since been rebuilt. Originally, there were plans to add a steeple, although funding shortfalls prevented this from happening.[3]
The Scarlet Letter: A Romance, an 1850 novel, is a work of historical fiction written by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne.[1] It is considered his “masterwork”.[2] Set in 17th-century Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony, during the years 1642 to 1649, it tells the story of Hester Prynne, who conceives a daughter through an affair and struggles to create a new life of repentance and dignity. As she struggles to raise her rambunctious daughter, Pearl, on her own, the father of her unborn child is revealed and is shown to be experiencing severe guilt. Through the scorn and judgment of the citizens and Roger Chillingworth (Hester’s husband), the two decide to remain together. Throughout the book, Hawthorne explores themes of legalism, sin, and guilt.
In this painting, The Scarlet Letter by Hugues Merle, Hester Prynne and Pearl are in the foreground and Arthur Dimmesdale and Roger Chillingworth are in the background (painting by Hugues Merle, 1861).
The following are symbols that are embedded in The Scarlet Letter:
- The Scarlet Letter A: In the beginning of the novel Hester’s letter A is a representation of her sin and adultery. However, as time progresses, the meaning of the letter changed. It now represented, to some, able. It states “The letter was the symbol of her calling. Such helpfulness was found in her—so much power to do, and power to sympathize—that many people refused to interpret the scarlet A by its original signification. They said that it meant Able, so strong was Hester Prynne, with a woman’s strength” (129).[23]
- Meteor: The meteor shaped as an A serves as another symbol in the book. To Reverend Dimmesdale the meteor is a sign from God who is revealing his sin to everyone and causes him to be ridden with guilt. However, others perceived the letter to be a symbol for angel.[23]
- Dimmesdale’s name: Dimmesdale’s name itself also holds symbolism. His name contains the root word “dim” which evokes the feeling of faint, weak, and gloom. This represents the constant state Dimmesdale finds himself in. His life has dimmed itself every since his sin causing his light of life to fade and dim.[23]
- Roger Chillingworth’s name: Roger Chillingworth’s name is also perceived to have symbolism. This is because his name contains the word “chilling” which reveals the cold, chilling demeanor.[23]
- Pearl: Pearl symbolizes the embodiment of her parent’s sin and passion. She is a constant reminder of the sin her mother can’t escape from. It is mentioned she “was the scarlet letter in another form; the scarlet letter endowed in life” (84).[23]
- Rosebush: The rosebush is mentioned twice within the course of the story. At the beginning, it is first viewed as natures way of offering beauty to those who leave and enter the prison as well with a glimmer of hope to those who inhabit it. The rosebush is perceived as a symbol of brightness in a story filled with human sorrow. [23]
- The Scaffold: The scaffold is mentioned three times throughout the novel. It can be viewed as separating the book into the beginning, middle, and end. It symbolizes shame, revelation of sin, and guilt for it is where Hester received her scarlet letter as punishment and where Dimmesdale experience his revelation through the meteor.
Nathaniel Hawthorne was born on July 4, 1804, in Salem, Massachusetts; his birthplace is preserved and open to the public.[3] William Hathorne was the author’s great-great-great-grandfather. He was a Puritan and was the first of the family to emigrate from England, settling in Dorchester, Massachusetts before moving to Salem. There he became an important member of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and held many political positions, including magistrate and judge, becoming infamous for his harsh sentencing.[4] William’s son and the author’s great-great-grandfather John Hathorne was one of the judges who oversaw the Salem witch trials. Hawthorne probably added the “w” to his surname in his early twenties, shortly after graduating from college, in an effort to dissociate himself from his notorious forebears.[5]
Just as he uses true historical figures as characters in his story “Young Goodman Brown,” Nathaniel Hawthorne writes into his narrative of “The Scarlet Letter” the “stern divine” John Wilson, a minister who came to America in 1630. A strong figure of Puritan intolerance he appears in Chapter III in the first scaffold scene. However, Hawthorne describes him in such a way as to suggest his Puritanical ineffectiveness and punitive nature:
withal a man of kind and genial spirit….an attribute [that] was…a matter of shame than self-congratulation with him….There he stood, with a border of grizzled locks beneath his skull-cap; while his gray eyes, accustomed to the shaded light of his study , were winking, like those of Hester’s infant, in the unadulterated sunshine. He looked like the darkly engraved portraits which we see prefixed to old volumes of sermons; and no more right than of those portraits would have to step forth, as he now did and meddle with a question of human guilt, passion, and anguish.
Alluding to the judges of the witchcraft trials, Hawthorne suggests the Puritanical sanctimony in the Reverend Wilson who admits that he overrides the concern of Mr. Dimmesdale that it is a wrongdoing to question her in “such broad daylight, and in the presence of so great a multitude.” But, Mr. Wilson, continues, he has explained to Dimmesdale that the wrongdoing is in the “commission of the sin, and not in the showing of it forth.” He, then, bids the Reverend Dimmesdale to step forward and question Hester. But, despite his pleas, Hester refuses. Mr. Wilson cries “more harshly than before,”
Woman, transgress not beyond the limits of Heaven’s mercy!
The Reverend Mr. Wilson appears again at the mansion of Governor Bellingham and questions Hester about her right to raise the little girl. When he asks Pearl who “made thee,” Pearl astonishes him by replying that she was plucked from the wild rose bush by the prison. After this response, the Reverend Wilson feels the child should be taken from Hester, believing the mother wishes to “make a mountain bank of this child.”
When Roger Chillingworth suggests that they guess the father of the child, the “good Mr. Wilson” suggests that it would be “sinful” to pursue the matter; better to “pray and fast upon it.” Mr. Wilson does not appear again until the second scaffold scene in Chapter XII, and then he does perceive Mr. Dimmesdale through the darkness even though Dimmesdale barely restrains himself from speaking:
The venerable Father Wilson continued to step slowly onward, looking carefully at the muddy parthway before his feet.
And, finally, in the third scaffold scene, “the venerable John Wison,…stepped forward hastily to offer his support” to Reverend Dimmesdale, but the young minister “repelled the old man’s arm.”
Symbolic of Puritanism and its ineffectiveness in assuaging the soul, the Reverend Mr. Wilson is part of the tableaux that present the punitive character of Puritanism and its ineffectiveness.

John Cotton
The most religiously devout of the Founding Fathers was Reverend John Cotton (1585-1652). He was an eminent theologian in the early days of Massachusetts. Cotton was born in Derby (pronounced “Darby”), England, and was later parish priest in old Boston at the famous St. Botolph Church.
Cotton emigrated to Massachusetts in 1633, and with John Wilson they established the first church in Boston. Cotton was called the Teacher, and Wilson was called the Pastor, as such was the distinction of that day. John Cotton remained Teacher at the first Boston church until his death in 1652. It is believed that establishment of the Boston Latin School, America’s first public school, was largely due to the work by John Cotton.

Elizabeth Pain is buried at King’s Chapel Burying Ground. She died in 1704, and her grave is marked with a beautiful carved stone. It is believed that Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864) was inspired by the shield on Elizabeth Pain’s gravestone, and referred to it in his famous book The Scarlet Letter.
Wikipedia summarizes The Scarlet Letter concisely: “Hester Prynne, the story’s protagonist, is a young married woman whose husband was presumed to have been lost at sea on the journey to the New World. She begins a secret adulterous relationship with Arthur Dimmesdale, the highly regarded town minister, and becomes pregnant with a daughter, whom she names Pearl. She is then publicly vilified and forced to wear the scarlet letter ‘A’ on her clothing to identify her as an adulteress, but loyally refuses to reveal the identity of her lover. She accepts the punishment with grace and refuses to be defeated by the shame inflicted upon her by her society.”

John Wilson (c.1588–1667), was a Puritan clergyman in Boston in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and the minister of the First Church of Boston from its beginnings in Charlestown in 1630 until his death in 1667. He is most noted for being a minister at odds with Anne Hutchinson during the Antinomian Controversy from 1636 to 1638, and for being an attending minister during the execution of Mary Dyer in 1660.
Born into a prominent English family from Sudbury in Suffolk, his father was the chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, and thus held a high position in the Anglican Church. Young Wilson was sent to school at Eton for four years, and then attended the university at King’s College, Cambridge, where he received his B.A. in 1610. From there he studied law briefly, and then studied at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he received an M.A. in 1613. Following his ordination, he was the chaplain for some prominent families for a few years, before being installed as pastor in his home town of Sudbury. Over the next ten years he was dismissed and then reinstated on several occasions, because of his strong Puritan sentiments which contradicted the practices of the established church.
As with many other Puritan divines, Wilson came to New England, and sailed with his friend John Winthrop and the Winthrop Fleet in 1630. He was the first minister of the settlers, who established themselves in Charlestown, but soon crossed the Charles River into Boston. Wilson was an encouragement to the early settlers during the very trying initial years of colonization. He made two return trips to England during his early days in Boston, the first time to persuade his wife to come, after she initially refused to make the trip, and the second time to transact some business. Upon his second return to the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1635, Anne Hutchinson was first exposed to his preaching, and found an unhappy difference between his theology and that of her mentor, John Cotton, who was the other Boston minister. The theologically astute, sharp-minded, and outspoken Hutchinson, who had been hosting large groups of followers in her home, began to criticize Wilson, and the divide erupted into the Antinomian Controversy. Hutchinson was eventually tried and banished from the colony, as was her brother-in-law, Reverend John Wheelwright.
Following the controversy, Wilson and Cotton were able to work together to heal the divisions within the Boston church, but after Cotton’s death more controversy befell Boston as the Quakers began to infiltrate the orthodox colony with their evangelists. Greatly opposed to their theology, Wilson supported the actions taken against them, and supervised the execution of his former parishioner, Mary Dyer in 1660. He died in 1667, the longest-lived of the early ministers in the Boston area, and his passing was lamented by those who knew him and worked with him, but he is also remembered for the roles he played in the persecution of those who did not embrace the Puritan orthodoxy.

Early life[edit]
John Wilson was born in Windsor, Berkshire, England about 1588,[1] the son of the Reverend William Wilson (1542–1615). John’s father, originally of Sudbury in Suffolk,[2][3] was a chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, Edmund Grindal.[4] His father was also a prebend of St Paul’s in London, a minister in Rochester, Kent, and a rector of the parish of Cliffe, Kent.[3] Wilson’s mother was Isabel Woodhull, the daughter of John Woodhull and Elizabeth Grindal, and a niece of Archbishop Grindal.[5][6] According to Wilson’s biographer, A. W. M’Clure, Archbishop Grindal favored the Puritans to the extent of his power, to the displeasure of Queen Elizabeth.[3]
Eton College, where Wilson studied for four years
Wilson was first formally educated at Eton College, where he spent four years, and at one time was chosen to speak a Latin oration during the visit of the duc de Biron, ambassador from the court of Henry IV of France.[7] The duke then gave him a special gift of a gold coin called “three angels”, worth about ten shillings.[6][1] On 23 August 1605, at the age of 14, Wilson was admitted to King’s College, Cambridge.[2] While there he was initially prejudiced against the Puritans, but changed his stance after reading Richard Rogers’ Seven Treatises (1604), and he subsequently traveled to Dedham to hear Rogers preach.[4][6] He and other like-minded students frequently met to discuss theology, and he also regularly visited prisons to minister to the inmates.[8] He received his B.A. from King’s College in 1609/10,[2] then studied law for a year at the Inns of Court in London.[9] He next attended Emmanuel College, Cambridge, noted for its Puritan advocacy, where he received his M.A. in 1613.[2][9] While at Emmanuel, he likely formed a friendship with future New England divines, John Cotton and Thomas Hooker.[9] He was probably soon ordained as a minister in the Anglican Church, but records of this event are not extant.[2]
In 1615 Wilson visited his dying father, who had these parting words for his son: “while thou wast at the university, because thou wouldst not conform, I fain would have brought thee to some higher preferment; but I see thy conscience is very scrupulous about somethings imposed in the church. Nevertheless, I have rejoiced to see the grace and fear of God in thy heart; and seeing thou hast hitherto maintained a good conscience, and walked according to thy light, do so still. Go by the rule of God’s holy word, and the Lord bless thee.”[10]
Wilson preached for three years as the chaplain to several respectful families in Suffolk, one of them being the family of the Countess of Leicester. It was to her that he later dedicated his only book, Some Helps to Faith…, published in 1630.[11] In time he was offered, and accepted, the position of minister at Sudbury, from where his family had originated.[7] While there he met John Winthrop, and likely supported Winthrop’s unsuccessful 1626 bid to become a member of Parliament.[9] Wilson was suspended and then restored several times as minister, the issue being nonconformity (Puritan leanings) with the established practices of the Anglican Church.[7] Like many Puritans, he began turning his thoughts toward New England.
Massachusetts[edit]
Wilson arrived in New England with the Winthrop Fleet in 1630.
Wilson was an early member of the Massachusetts Bay Company, and accompanied John Winthrop and the Winthrop Fleet to New England in 1630. As soon as they arrived, he, with Governor Winthrop, Thomas Dudley, and Isaac Johnson, entered into a formal and solemn covenant with each other to walk together in the fellowship of the gospel.[7] Life was harsh in the new wilderness, and Plymouth historian Nathaniel Morton said that Wilson “bare a great share of the difficulties of these new beginnings with great cheerfulness and alacrity of spirit.”[12] Wilson was chosen the pastor of their first church in Charlestown, being installed as teacher there on 27 August 1630,[6] and in the same month the General Court ordered that a dwelling-house should be built for him at the public expense, and the governor and Sir Richard Saltonstall were appointed to put this into effect. By the same authority it was also ordered, that Wilson’s salary, until the arrival of his wife, should be 20 pounds a year.[7] After the Charlestown church was established, most of its members moved across the Charles River to Boston, after which services were held alternately on each side of the river, and then later only in Boston.[13]
Well before leaving England, Wilson was married to Elizabeth Mansfield, the daughter of Sir John Mansfield, and had at least two children born in England, but his wife had initially refused to come to New England with him.[2] Her refusal was the subject of several letters sent from John Winthrop’s wife, Margaret, to her son John Winthrop Jr., in May 1631.[14] Wilson then made a trip back to England from 1631 to 1632. Though his biographer, in 1870, stated that she still did not come back to New England with Wilson until 1635, Anderson in 1995 pointed out that the couple had a child baptized in Boston in 1633; therefore she had to have come with Wilson during this earlier trip.[14][15]
On 2 July 1632 Wilson was admitted as a freeman of the colony, and later the same month the first meeting house was built in Boston. For this and Wilson’s parsonage, the congregation made a voluntary contribution of 120 pounds.[16] On 25 October 1632 Wilson, with Governor Winthrop and a few other men, set out on a friendly visit to Plymouth where they were hospitably received. They held a worship service on the Sabbath, and that same afternoon they met again, and engaged in a discussion centered around a question posed by the Plymouth teacher, Roger Williams. William Bradford, the Plymouth governor, and William Brewster, the ruling elder, spoke, after which Governor Winthrop and Wilson were invited to speak. The Boston men returned the following Wednesday, with Winthrop riding Governor Bradford’s horse.[17]
On 23 November, Wilson, who had previously been ordained teacher, was installed as minister of the First Church of Boston.[2][17] In 1633 the church at Boston received another minister, when John Cotton arrived and was installed as teacher.[18] In November 1633 Wilson made one of his many visits outside Boston, and went to Agawam (later Ipswich), since the settlers there did not yet have a minister.[19] He also visited the natives, tending to their sick, and instructing others who were capable of understanding him. In this regard he became the first Protestant missionary to the North American native people, a work later to be carried on with much success by Reverend John Eliot.[19] Closer to home, Wilson sometimes led groups of Christians, including magistrates and other ministers, to the church lectures in nearby towns, sharing his “heavenly discourse” during the trip.[20]
In late 1634, Wilson made his final trip to England, leaving the ministry of the Boston Church in the hands of his co-pastor, John Cotton, and traveling with John Winthrop Jr.[21] While returning to England he had a harrowing experience off the coast of Ireland during some violent winter weather, and though other ships perished, his landed. During his journey across Ireland and England, Wilson was able to minister to many people, and tell them about New England. In his journal, John Winthrop noted that while in Ireland, Wilson “gave much satisfaction to the Christians there about New England.”[22] Leaving England for the final time on 10 August 1635, Wilson arrived back in New England on the third of October.[23] Soon after his return, M’Clure writes, “the Antinomian Controversy broke out and raged for two…years and with a fury that threatened the destruction of his church.”[24]
Antinomian Controversy[edit]
Main article: Antinomian Controversy
Wilson first became acquainted with Anne Hutchinson when in 1634, as the minister of the Boston Church, he was notified of some heterodox views that she revealed while en route to New England on the ship Griffin. A minister aboard the ship was questioned by her in such a way as to cause him some alarm, and word was sent to Wilson. In conference with his co-minister in Boston, the Reverend John Cotton, Hutchinson was examined, and deemed suitable for church membership, though admitted a week later than her husband because of initial uncertainty.[25]
John Cotton shared the ministry with Wilson at the Boston church.
When Wilson returned from his England trip in 1635, he was accompanied aboard the ship Abigail by two other people who would play a role in the religious controversy to come. One of these was the Reverend Hugh Peter, who became the minister in Salem, and the other was a young aristocrat, Henry Vane, who soon became the governor of the colony.[26]
In the pulpit, Wilson was said to have a voice that was harsh and indistinct and his demeanor was directed at strict discipline, but he had a penchant for rhymes, and would frequently engage in word play.[27] He was unpopular during his early days of preaching in Boston, partly attributable to his strictness in teaching, and partly from his violent and arbitrary manner.[28] His gruff style was further highlighted by the mild qualities of John Cotton, with whom he shared the church’s ministry. When Wilson returned to Boston in 1635, Hutchinson was exposed to his teaching for the first time, and immediately saw a big difference between her own doctrines and his.[28] She found his emphasis on morality, and his doctrine of “evidencing justification by sanctification” (a covenant of works) to be repugnant, and she told her followers that Wilson lacked “the seal of the Spirit.”[28] Wilson’s doctrines were shared with all of the other ministers in the colony, except for Cotton, and the Boston congregation had grown accustomed to Cotton’s lack of emphasis on preparation “in favor of stressing the inevitability of God’s will.”[29] The positions of Cotton and Wilson were matters of emphasis, and neither minister believed that works could help to save a person.[29] It is likely that most members of the Boston church could not see much difference between the doctrines of the two men, but the astute Hutchinson could, prompting her to criticize Wilson at her home gatherings.[29] Probably in early 1636 he became aware of divisions within his own Boston congregation, and soon came to realize that Hutchinson’s views were widely divergent from those of the orthodox clergy in the colony.[30]
Wilson said nothing of his discovery, but instead preached his covenant of works even more vehemently.[31] As soon as Winthrop became aware of what was happening, he made an entry in his journal about Hutchinson, who did “meddle in such things as are proper for men, whose minds are stronger.”[32] He also noted the 1636 arrival in the colony of Hutchinson’s in-law who became an ally in religious opinion: “There joined with her in these opinions a brother of hers, one Mr. Wheelwright, a silenced minister sometimes in England.”[33]
Meetings of the ministers[edit]
Governor Henry Vane was furious over Wilson’s “sad speech,” which cast aspersions on Reverend Cotton.
In October 1636 the ministers, realizing that a theological tempest was forming in the colony, decided to get to the heart of the issue, and held a series of meetings, which also included Hutchinson and some of the magistrates.[34] In order to deal with the theological errors of the Hutchinson group, the ministers first had to come to a consensus about their own positions, and this they were unable to do. Hutchinson’s followers used this impasse to attempt to have Wheelwright appointed as another minister to the Boston church, an expression of their dissatisfaction with Wilson. Winthrop came to Wilson’s rescue, as an elder in the church, by invoking a ruling requiring unanimity in a church vote, and was thus able to forestall Wheelwright’s appointment there. Instead, Wheelwright was sent about ten miles south to Mount Wollaston to preach.[35]
As the meetings continued into December 1636, the theological debate escalated. Wilson delivered “a very sad speech of the condition of our churches,” insinuating that Cotton, his fellow Boston minister, was partly responsible for the dissension.[36] Wilson’s speech was moved to represent the sense of the meeting, and was approved by all of the ministers and magistrates present with the notable exceptions of Governor Vane, Reverend Cotton, Reverend Wheelwright, and two strong supporters of Hutchinson, William Coddington and Richard Dummer.[37]
Cotton, normally of a very placid disposition, was indignant over the proceedings and lead a delegation to admonish Wilson for his uncharitable insinuations.[37] On Saturday, 31 December 1636, the Boston congregants met to prefer charges against Wilson. Governor Vane launched the attack, and was joined by other members of the congregation.[37] Wilson met the onslaught with a quiet dignity, and responded soberly to each of the accusations brought against him.[38] The crowd refused to accept his excuses, and demanded a vote of censure. At this point Cotton intervened, and with more restraint than his parishioners, offered that without unanimity a vote of censure was out of order.[38] While the ultimate indignity of censure was averted, Cotton nevertheless gave a grave exhortation to his colleague to allay the temper of the congregants.[38] The next day Wilson preached such a conciliatory sermon that even Governor Vane rose and voiced his approval.[38]
“Dung cast on their faces”[edit]
The Boston congregants, followers of Hutchinson, were now emboldened to seize the offensive and discredit the orthodox doctrines at services throughout the colony. The saddened Winthrop lamented, “Now the faithfull Ministers of Christ must have dung cast on their faces, and be not better than legall Preachers.”[39] As Hutchinson’s followers attacked ministers with questions calculated to diminish confidence in their teachings, Winthrop continued his lament, “so many objections made by the opinionists…against our doctrine delivered, if it suited not their new fancies.”[38] When Wilson rose to preach or pray, the Hutchinsonians boldly rose and walked out of the meeting house. While Wilson was the favorite butt of this abuse, it was not restricted just to the Boston church, and similar gestures were being made toward the other ministers who preached a covenant of works.[40]
CIA Warned Israel About Hamas Attack

“The CIA provided two warnings to the Biden Administration regarding an increased risk of violence from Hamas in the days leading up to the militant group’s attack on Israel, according to multiple outlets, though the reports didn’t anticipate the severity of the lethal assault.”
Write your Senator and Congressman and demand an investigation be launched about the CIA warning Israel about possible attack around the day – HAMAS ATTACKED!
Below are my posts before and after the attack! Here is my post of October 13, 2023. President Biden had to have known about this warning. Write our President and bid him to call a ceasefire until there is a investigation. Bid him to not give Israel any money for more war. Hamas does not have hundreds of tanks, aircraft, or a navy to launch a military invasion of Israel, thus there is no urgency to bomb civilian targets and kill civilians.
Last night I heard a IDF General say Israel did get a report a year before the attack, but did not have a CLUE when it might happen. Did he lie? This General showed off his ‘Kill Zone’ AP that Palestinians can use to avoid being blown to bits. The problem with this Faux Mercy Plan – the IDF knocked out cellphone reception! I’ve seen and heard enough. War Crimes are being committed!

Israel Was Warned!
Posted on October 13, 2023 by Royal Rosamond Press
The EU is warning about Israel engaging in misinformation. It was reported that plans to invade a school and take children hostages was found on a dead Hamas invader. Why? How many dead invaders are there? Why wasn’t the Sukkot Festival canceled? Who planned it, and set the location? Netanyahu was desperate to unite Israel. The Liberal-left marched in the street. What if Hamas attacked one of those protests? Did Hamas know the music festival was taking place – and attacked anyway? Didn’t they know this would turn Bohemian-Hippie types all over the world – against them? They look like Oakland and Berkeley cops.

The CIA provided two warnings to the Biden Administration regarding an increased risk of violence from Hamas in the days leading up to the militant group’s attack on Israel, according to multiple outlets, though the reports didn’t anticipate the severity of the lethal assault.
KEY FACTS
A September 28 intelligence report warned of the possibility that Hamas would launch rocket strikes into Israel over the course of multiple days, the New York Times reported, citing U.S. officials.
A second report from the CIA dated October 5—two days before Hamas carried out its attack—warned of an increased probability of violence from Hamas.
President Joe Biden and senior White House officials were not briefed on either report, the Times reported, noting the CIA did not designate the reports as having particular significance to policymakers.
Egypt warned Israel about an incoming attack from Hamas three days before the brutal weekend assault, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) said on Wednesday.
“We know that Egypt has warned the Israelis three days prior that an event like this could happen,” McCaul told reporters after a closed-door intelligence briefing focused on the war, per the Guardian. “I don’t want to get too much into classified [details], but a warning was given. I think the question was at what level.”

The Texas Republican reportedly added that the attack may have been planned as far back as a year ago. “We’re not quite sure how we missed it. We’re not quite sure how Israel missed it.”
McCaul’s statements appear to contradict Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s repeated claims that he was not told of Hamas’s plans before the attack, prompting further questions over who knew what and when.
An Egyptian intelligence official said his country had warned Israel that “something big” could happen, but both U.S. and Israeli officials have denied that any such warning occurred.
The European Commission sent a warning letter Friday to Google and its subsidiary YouTube over disinformation and graphic content linked to the Hamas-Israel conflict, in the European Union’s latest effort to scrutinize Big Tech’s handling of the war.
The letter from European Commissioner Thierry Breton, addressed to Google CEO Sundar Pichai and also sent to YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, reminded the company about its content moderation obligations under the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA). Breton shared the letter on X.
Breton highlighted legal requirements for Google to keep graphic content such as hostage videos away from underage users; to act swiftly when authorities flag content that violates European laws; and to mitigate disinformation.
“This brings me to a second area of pressing concern: tackling disinformation in the context of elections, a priority which we personally discussed when we met in Brussels in May,” Breton wrote, referencing upcoming elections in a number of EU countries.
It also warned of possible penalties if a future investigation were to find Google (GOOGL) is not complying with the DSA.
Breton’s warning comes after similar letters he sent this week to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, as well as Meta and TikTok.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Re%27im_music_festival_massacre On 7 October 2023, Hamas militants crossed into Israel from the Gaza Strip and carried out a massacre of civilians at the “Supernova Sukkot Gathering” music festival. The event was an open-air psychedelic trance festival, arranged to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, and was situated near the Re’im kibbutz.[3][4][5] This attack was part of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, which started the 2023 Israel–Hamas war. At least 260 festivalgoers were killed, and a greater number of people were injured.
The organizers switched to the site only two days before, after the original location in southern Israel did not work out.[15]

Raz Gaster had multiple artists playing the electronic music festival, where at least 260 people were killed and others were abducted amid an attack by Hamas operatives Saturday (Oct. 7).

Gaster arrived on site at the festival event at approximately 5:30 a.m. on Saturday, with the party — which had started the night prior — meant to go until approximately 5 p.m. Saturday evening. An offshoot of the Paralello Universo festival brand started in Brazil nearly 20 years ago; the Israel event was called Supernova Sukkot Gathering after the Jewish holiday and was hosting several thousand attendees in a rural location near the Gaza Strip, with a lineup focused on the electronic psytrance genre.
Everything changed, though, when rockets and missiles launched from the Gaza Strip by Hamas started landing on the site an hour later, part of a widespread attack on Israel.
“Around 6:30 in the morning we started hearing explosions,” Gaster says. “We went out of the backstage and we saw a full bombardment everywhere. It was hundreds of rockets and mortars flying from everywhere and explosions all around us.”
Gaster says that at this point, festival security advised everyone to get down on the floor and put their hands above their heads for protection. But after 5-10 minutes, Gaster says, “the policemen shouted in the microphones, ‘Okay, get in your cars and go.’”
“The moment the policemen said ‘go now,’ I ran,” Gaster recalls. “I didn’t wait, because we know it’s a rocket attack. You need to act quick.”

At Least 260 People Dead After Attack At Israeli Electronic Music Festival
Because his car was parked near the stage very close to where he was standing, Gaster and three other men — including Universo Paralello co-founder Juarez Petrillo — were able to immediately get in Gaster’s car and drive out minutes later, after Gaster made sure the artists he works with were also in vehicles fleeing the site.
Gaster says he was “driving super fast, not stopping for anything, even when missiles are coming down. My instinct told me don’t stop for shelter, just drive… We drove so fast we didn’t even know what was happening.”
By the time Gaster and the others made it to a villa rented by the production team, located approximately 30 kilometers away from the festival, they had started getting texts and phone calls telling them that minutes after they drove away from the site, Hamas fighters had arrived “with machine guns, with RPGs, with grenades, and just slaughtered whoever they could.”
He says that these attackers arrived by motorcycles, quads and trucks approximately 20 minutes after missiles started landing.
Gaster and those he was with turned the villa into a command center, contacting IDF, other Israeli security services and “all of our friends that we know personally that have firearms that have connections that can go there.”

During this time he and the others were receiving messages from friends and colleagues still on site, who reported that the attackers were shooting attendees in their cars as they attempted to drive away. A friend of Gaster’s messaged to say that the driver of her car had been shot and that she and another friend were pretending to be dead to avoid being killed. He says these women ultimately played dead for five hours before being rescued. As of Sunday (Oct. 8), Israeli rescue service Zaka has reported at least 260 bodies at the site.
“People were hiding in ditches, hiding in bushes, hiding in the woods, hiding wherever you can think of,” says Gaster. “We were getting horrible messages from friends saying, ‘Please help us, they are shooting people next to us.’”
Gaster says it took IDF and special forces a few hours to arrive on site, with those who were there attempting to defend themselves in the meantime.
“At the party there was already a police force, like any licensed party,” Gaster says, “and they were the first ones to try to give assistance by fighting… We are Israelites, so most of us have military experience, and a few from the production managed to kill some terrorists with their bare hands and their weapons.”
Gaster says a person from the festival killed two of the attackers after taking their guns. Gaster says he and the team at the production villa were being sent on-site locations from various attendees and then sending these locations to this person, who then went to help these attendees.
“It was 24 hours of working to find as many people as we could and get as many signs of life as we could,” says Gaster.
Universo Paralello was not origintally intended to take place at the Re’im site, with organizers moving it to this location only two days before it started, when another site in southern Israel fell through. The new site at Re’im featured a pair of stages, with the Israeli producer Artifex playing the mainstage when the attack started. Gaster was told that the attackers closed the road into the festival from both sides so attendees could not escape.

Other festival attendees have been abducted by Hamas. As a group of between 15-20 people gathered at the production villa, they, says Gaster, “started seeing videos on social media of hostages and people we know that are kidnapped and bodies we could recognize [as] our friends. Many friends are still missing, and we still don’t know where they are.”
He approximates that there are still 600-700 people missing from the party. All but one artist on the festival lineup has left Israel, with Gaster and others putting artists on any available flight into Europe as airlines canceled flights amid the attacks.
While Gaster had just arrived to his home in the north of Israel when Billboard spoke with him at around 1 a.m. local Israeli time (he says the IDF controls most of the area between where he was and where he lives, so he felt safe to drive home), he says that amid the chaos they are all “still trying to find any signs of life.”
