Each week we provide you with one of the week's most thought provoking articles. | |  Liberal Jews: Your Abortions or Your Lives
By Caroline Glick, The Jerusalem Post
[Editors note: Unfortunately, what Caroline Glick decries in the following article was replicated by the Jewish Community Relations Council of greater Washington, DC when it disinvited a Christian Zionist voice at a rally opposing Ahmadinejad’s appearance at the UN.]
American Jews have good reason to be ashamed and angry today. As Iran moves into the final stages of its nuclear weapons development program - nuclear weapons which it will use to destroy the State of Israel, endanger Jews around the world and cow the United States of America - Democratic American Jewish leaders decided that putting Sen. Barack Obama in the White House is more important than protecting the lives of the Jewish people in Israel and around the world. On Monday, the New York Sun published the speech that Republican vice presidential nominee and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin would have delivered at that day's rally outside UN headquarters in New York against Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and against Iran's plan to destroy Israel. She would have delivered it, if she hadn't been disinvited.
The rally was co-sponsored by the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, the National Coalition to Stop Iran Now, The Israel Project, United Jewish Communities, the UJA-Federation of New York and the Jewish Council for Public Affairs. Its purpose was to present a united American Jewish front against Iran's genocidal leader and against its genocidal regime which is developing nuclear weapons with the stated intention of committing the second Holocaust in 80 years.

Each week we take a meaningful quote, tie it to scripture, and leave you with a take-home. | |  Govenor Sarah Palin said: Ahmadinejad may choose his words carefully, but underneath all of the rhetoric is an agenda that threatens all who seek a safer and freer world. He must be stopped. ... The world must awake to the threat this man poses to all of us. Ahmadinejad denies that the Holocaust ever took place. He dreams of being an agent in a "Final Solution" — the elimination of the Jewish people. He has called Israel a "stinking corpse" that is "on its way to annihilation." Such talk cannot be dismissed as the ravings of a madman — not when Iran just this summer tested long-range Shahab-3 missiles capable of striking Tel Aviv, not when the Iranian nuclear program is nearing completion, and not when Iran sponsors terrorists that threaten and kill innocent people around the world. ... Together, we can stop Iran's nuclear program. ... Senator McCain has made a solemn commitment that I strongly endorse: Never again will we risk another Holocaust. And this is not a wish, a request, or a plea to Israel's enemies. This is a promise that the United States and Israel will honor, against any enemy who cares to test us. It is John McCain's promise and it is my promise.
The LORD God of Israel says: "I will bless those who bless you and whoever curses you I will curse. ... I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you. ... The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies who hate and persecute you." [Gen. 12:3; Ex. 23:22; Deut. 30:7].
The Jerusalem Connection says: Ahmadinejad is a disgrace to the Persian people and to the heritage of their greatest leader, King Cyrus, who financed the Jews' return to their homeland and is the only non-Jew called a messiah [Isaiah 45:1; Ezra 1:2-4]. More significantly, since Ahmadinejad has cursed the Jews and Israel, he has placed himself under the curse of the God of Israel. Hence, he awaits the judgement and wrath of the God of Israel. Since he has cursed Israel openly, the wrath of God on this man will be open for the world to see. There will be no question as to the Source of Ahmadinejad's demise. Since the Iranian blasphemer claims to be a spokesman for Allah, the god of Islam, his destruction will attest to the greater power of the LORD God of Israel. As the Apostle Paul reminds us, "The kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power." [I Cor.4:20].

| | |  Rosh Hashanah begins at sundown on Monday September 29 and ends at nightfall on Wednesday October 1. Rosh Hashanah is the first of the High Holidays or Yamim Noraim ("Days of Awe") which conclude with the holiday of Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah is the start of the civil year in the Hebrew calendar.
Rosh Hashanah is characterized by the blowing of the shofar intended to awaken the listener from his or her "slumber" and alert them to the coming judgment. Another popular observance during this holiday is eating apples dipped in honey, a symbol of hope for a sweet new year.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad came to New York this week to use the UN platform for his anti-Semitic libel straight out of the pages of "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion." During his speech he blamed the current Wall Street crisis on "a small but deceitful number of people called Zionists." He went on to threaten the demise of the Zionist regime and called for a Palestinian state in all of Israel. This kind of hate speech has become old-hat for the Iranian leader but the Free World no longer has to take it. Write your congressperson today and tell them not to leave Washington next week before they pass two important Iran bills. Tell them before this session ends they must vote on the Iran Counter-Proliferation Act (S. 970/H.R. 1400) and the Iran Sanctions Enabling Act (S. 1430/H.R. 2347). Find out more on these two bills
