SnyderTalk Editorial: The Army’s New XM25 Rifle

Jeremiah 12: 14-17

Thus says Yahweh concerning all My wicked neighbors who strike at the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel, “Behold I am about to uproot them from their land and will uproot the house of Judah from among them.  And it will come about that after I have uprooted them, I will again have compassion on them; and I will bring them back, each one to his inheritance and each one to his land.  Then if they will really learn the ways of My people, to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ even as they taught My people to swear by Baal, they will be built up in the midst of My people.  But if they will not listen, then I will uproot that nation, uproot and destroy it,” declares Yahweh.

Jeremiah 18: 13-14

“Therefore thus says Yahweh, ‘Ask now among the nations, who ever heard the like of this?  The virgin of Israel has done a most appalling thing.  Does the snow of Lebanon forsake the rock of the open country?  Or is the cold flowing water from a foreign land ever snatched away?’”

Falsely Accused

Falsely Accused is a true story about a young woman who was accused of committing a double homicide.  It’s about a travesty of justice, and it reveals Yahweh intervening in the life of a believer to rescue her from danger in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.  Everyone will enjoy the book, but young people in particular need to read it because the mistakes made that led to the problem could have been avoided.  They were the kinds of mistakes that young people are prone to make.  As they say, forewarned is forearmed.

If you don’t have a Kindle device, you can download Falsely Accused into your computer.  The title of the book has a hyperlink.  Click on it, and it will take you to the Amazon webpage.  In the upper right corner of the webpage, you’ll see a box containing the words “Buy now with 1-click.”  Below that you’ll see Available on your PC.  You’ll need this for downloading eBooks from Kindle, and the software is free.  Next, directly under “Buy now with 1-click,” you see “Deliver to.”  The drop down will enable you to select “Kindle for PC” and download it directly into your computer.  You can also download it for use with iPads, Sony Reader, and a host of other tablet devices.  You’ll need to have an account with Amazon.  If you don’t have one already, I recommend it strongly.

The Army’s New XM25 Rifle

The new XM25 rifle that was developed for use by the U.S. Army is now ready for use.  You can see it in operation in this YouTube video:

Next Generation Weapons: The XM25 Airburst

The XM25 is a semiautomatic, shoulder-held rifle that Lt. Col. Christopher Lehner, project manager for the rifle, calls a “game changer.”  According to Lehner, “With this weapon system, we take away cover from [enemy targets] forever.  Tactics are going to have to be rewritten. The only thing we can see [enemies] being able to do is run away.”

Watching the video should convince skeptics that Lt. Col. Lehner is correct.  The XM25 is a game changer and it will remain a game changer until we outfit our enemies with it.  Then our troops will be just as vulnerable to the XM25 as the enemy is.

I bring this up because we have a history of sharing our technology with our enemies while they pretend to be our friends, and we lose any advantage we had when they turn against us.  The Israelis in particular need to be concerned because I suspect that Palestinians will demand this weapon in return for helping to advance a “peace agenda.”  They’ve done it before.  Each time we’ve provided advanced weapons for use by Palestinians, they have made their way into the hands of radical elements that used them against the Israelis.  Hoping that things will be different this time around is ridiculous, but that doesn’t mean we won’t do it.  The Israelis need to prepare for the inevitable.

It won’t surprise me when/if we make the XM25 available to radical elements in Egypt, Libya, and possibly Syria, for example, who pretend for a moment to be on our side.  In short order, I expect the Iranians, the Russians, and the Chinese to have the weapon as well, so its “game changer” status should be short-lived.

This isn’t a pessimistic assessment.  It’s a realistic assessment.

Joel 3: 17-21

Then you will know that I am Yahweh your God, dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain.  So Jerusalem will be holy, and strangers will pass through it no more.  And in that day the mountains will drip with sweet wine, and the hills will flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah will flow with water; and a spring will go out from the house of Yahweh to water the valley of Shittim.  Egypt will become a waste, and Edom will become a desolate wilderness, because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, in whose land they have shed innocent blood.  But Judah will be inhabited forever and Jerusalem for all generations.  And I will avenge their blood which I have not avenged, for Yahweh dwells in Zion.
