Our Lord Blessed Our Jubilee!

19th Jubilee By The Sea
Luke 19
37 - And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 - Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

Truly, the 19th Jubilee by the Sea gave evidence to the divine presence of our wonderful Lord. One can only imagine what we will experience when we are translated into His presence when He returns for His church. The moment we see Him we will be eternally satisfied.

Bhutto calls on Musharraf to quit

Pakistan's detained opposition leader Benazir Bhutto has called for President Pervez Musharraf to step down.
Ms Bhutto made the call after police mounted a massive security operation to prevent a protest march in Lahore, where she is under house arrest.
It is the first time Ms Bhutto has urged Gen Musharraf to quit altogether.
Pakistan's government says elections will proceed according to schedule in January, but critics say in present conditions they cannot be free or fair.

Gen Musharraf attracted fierce international protest when he imposed emergency rule in Pakistan on 3 November, citing rising militancy and "interference" by the judiciary in the governance of the country.
On Tuesday, police in Lahore imposed a seven-day detention order on Ms Bhutto, ahead of a planned "Long March for Democracy" to demand the end of emergency measures.

TRAIL OF TERROR:
'Mr. Suicide Bomb' goes to Washington Rice, U.S. lawmakers met with Muslim sheikh who says Jesus, Moses 'prophets for Islam'
Posted: November 13, 20071:00 a.m. Eastern
A senior Muslim cleric who is a prominent justifier of suicide bombings met last week with senators and congressmen and consulted last month with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, WND has learned.
Sheikh Taysir Tamimi, chief Palestinian justice, also claimed in a recently released book for which he was interviewed the Torah was "falsified," Jewish and Christian history were "invented," the Jewish Temples never existed and the Al Aqsa Mosque was built by angels.
"I am very glad to have this occasion to speak to Congress and the Senate and have access to groups and individuals that form American policy," said Tamimi in a statement.
"I emphasized in the meetings the importance of religious coexistence and that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict cannot be solved without creating a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital," the Tamimi statement said.
Tamimi is considered the second most important Palestinian cleric after Muhammad Hussein, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.

Annapolis Insanity
By Joseph Farah
The U.S. is preparing for a very ominous summit in Annapolis later this month to move the "peace process" forward.
When all is said and done, the word "Annapolis" is going to take on a new meaning from this historic error.
What do I mean?
When we say "Oslo" today, you probably think of this so-called "Middle East
peace process" – one that leads inevitably and inexorably to never-ending appeasement of the Islamists by Israel.
That's essentially what the peace process is all about. It's about doing the same things over and over again and somehow expecting different results.
A good word for this process is "insanity."
Unfortunately, I believe when this Annapolis summit is completed, we will look back at Oslo and what has transpired since as "the good old days."
Here is what is being decided there:
  • The borders between Israel and a future Palestinian state.
  • The status of Jerusalem, including those holy places on and adjacent to the Temple Mount.
  • The so-called "right of return" for so-called Palestinian "refugees" living outside Israel and the Palestinian areas.

Actually, it's not quite accurate to say these things are being decided there. The truth is they have already been decided. The meeting in Annapolis is a formality where they will be unveiled to the world.

Gays Deserve Torture, Death Penalty, Iranian Minister Says
The Times

By Dominic Kennedy

Homosexuals deserve to be executed or tortured and possibly both, an Iranian leader told British MPs during a private meeting at a peace conference, The Times has learned.

Mohsen Yahyavi is the highest-ranked politician to admit that Iran believes in the death penalty for homosexuality after a spate of reports that gay youths were being hanged.

President Ahmadinejad, questioned by students in New York two months ago about the executions, dodged the issue by suggesting that there were no gays in his country.

Britain regularly challenges Iran about its gay hangings, stonings and executions of adulterers and perceived moral criminals, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) papers show.

The latest row involves a woman hanged this June in the town of Gorgan after becoming pregnant by her brother. He was absolved after expressing his remorse. Britain said that this demonstrated the unequal treatment of men and women in law and breached Iran’s pledge to restrict the death penalty to the most serious crimes.

Certainly, the focus of the world is on the Middle East and Jerusalem.
