Michael van der Galien—The Heart of Erdogan’s Darkness:

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan is becoming more authoritarian by the day. His government has announced it will use every tool available to investigate and punish protesters, critics in the media, and social media users. Additionally, Ankara has started to openly threaten foreign websites such as Twitter and Facebook, hoping they will end up betraying their users.

Whenever he gives a speech to his followers or appears on TV, Erdogan repeats that foreigners, not Turks, are the driving force behind the protests that have engulfed Turkey for the last month. For example, he regularly refers to a sinister “interest rate lobby” that, together with certain “foreign capitals,” works to destroy the economy. Since not even he can deny that the ones doing the actual protesting are Turkish, Erdogan and his henchmen can only conclude that they are traitors deserving of the harshest possible punishment.

That is why the government is doing everything in its power to identify protesters active on social media so they can be persecuted. Both Twitter and Facebook have been “asked” to share user information with the Turkish government. It would not surprise me that, once identified, these individuals will be charged with one sort of terrorism or another.

Jeffrey Goldberg: Kerry’s Bid for Mideast Peace—Both the Palestinians and Israelis know that Kerry’s proposed negotiations won’t work.

Oren Kessler: Trying to Kick-Start a Middle East Peace Process—”One wonders why the secretary of state would, as a first step in his foreign policy, embark on a very complicated issue that seems to many here to be unsolvable.”

Walter Russell Mead: Still Wrong about Egypt – and the World—We need a fundamental rethink of our approach to the promotion of democracy abroad.

Elad Benari: Bennett: Israel Belongs to the Jews, Period—“I’m asking all of you – go out. Don’t relent. Don’t be quiet. Speak up.”

Motti Inbari: The Outstretched Hand—My daily interactions with my neighbors and, I should add, my students, as well as my research into Christian Zionism, have led me to the conclusion that a new type of Christianity has emerged, one that is not at all hostile to Jews and ardently wishes to promote the Jews’ well-being.

Zvi Mazel: Morsi’s Downfall Is a Blessing for Egypt—For many in the Arab world, the emergence of the Muslim Brotherhood was an unmitigated disaster.

Dan Margalit: Silently counting our blessings— If the revolution spreads and brings down the Muslim Brotherhood in other countries in the region, it will be a double blessing.

Ruth Eglash: Israeli Government Quiet as Events Unfold in Egypt—”Israel is trying to keep its distance from what is going on Egypt and not say too much, because anything it says on this issue will be used as a weapon against one side or the other.”

Avi Issacharoff: Egypt’s Revolution Strikes Back—”We tend to focus too much on dangers and less on opportunities. Here Arab weakness can actually help. But beyond that, we are no longer surrounded by strong Arab countries. Our problem in Israel lies ostensibly today in the weakness of the states and not in their strength.”

Raymond Ibrahim: Al-Qaeda’s Jihad on Anti-Morsi Egyptians— “Al-Qaeda, under the leadership of Muhammad Zawahiri, is currently planning reprisal operations by which to attack the army and the Morsi-opposition all around the Republic [of Egypt].”

4--Scripture of the Day

Hosea 6: 1-3

“Come, let us return to Yahweh. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us. He will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day, that we may live before Him. So let us know, let us press on to know Yahweh. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; and He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.”

14--Blessings from Revelation

Blessings in the Book of Revelation is a book that you need to read, especially now.  There are blessings throughout the Scriptures but Revelation is the only book in the Bible actually containing a specific blessing for reading it. It’s repeated twice, once at the beginning and again at the end. This is the reason that I believe Revelation should be the first step toward studying biblical prophecy. Though not easy to do, Revelation can be broken down and understood by anyone, not just the academic elite. So, Revelation’s blessings are for everyone.  Click here to order the eBook.  Click here to order the paperback.
