The Islamic war against Israel and the world has taken another stride forward. This time the enemies of God have chosen to use primitive methods. There have been attacks using knives; attacks using guns; attacks using cars followed by the driver jumping out and attacking the wounded with a knife, suicide car bombs and any other weapon that is handy to attack children, the aged and the innocent. The Moslem leadership in Judea and Samaria have been working for months, teaching children to use knives, vegetable peelers, hammers and screw drivers as weapons. I refuse to live in fear. I've begun carrying a weapon and I will fight if the need arises. I have a large can of bear spray beside my bed and I may add that to the kit in the car. Most importantly, I will pray.
There are helicopters overhead as I write. I have been hearing sirens of ambulances and police vehicles all day. I've heard the gunfire and I've seen the alert eyes of pedestrians. Nobody wants an unknown person to walk close behind them. Everyone has their eye looking for police or military people nearby. We'll go to the market and we'll ride the bus but we will not be easy targets at all. God bless Israel and may His peace shine in the streets of Jerusalem!
