Thread: Romney in Jerusalem for Tisha B'Av

    Default Romney in Jerusalem for Tisha B'Av

    Mods, this is Bill Kristol's blog from The Weekly Standard. If it's not permitted, please delete.

    From the article:

    Indeed, THE WEEKLY STANDARD can report that Prime Minister and Mrs. Netanyahu have invited the Romneys to join them for the traditional meal breaking the fast following sundown after Tisha B’Av. This gesture suggests that what may have started out as a routine candidate touchdown in Israel has become a more serious and significant moment for both Netanyahu and Romney.

    In my book this is a plus for Romney.

    Yes, he seems to understand the relationship between Israel and the U.S. a whole lot better than Obama does.

    He has a long history with Israel. It's an honor to be with the Netanyahus for Tisha b'Av.

    Why would that cause worry, you want to be with your friends and show your support when they are sad.

    Saddest? Maybe.

    It seems to be when important things happen.
    The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
    Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge.
    (Psa 19:1b-2)

    Default Romney to Break Fast of Temple Mount Mourning with Netanyahu

    Good for Romney to stand with Israel on its day of mourning.

    Here's an Arutz Sheva news article about it, published on July 15:

    http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Ne...6#.UAVwQ45QQso
    Rom. 8:19 For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God.
    Rom. 8:28 God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

    Good on Romney, though his "church" teaches some very odd things on Israel (the original Jews were in upstate New York ).
