The CARMEL ALERT  September 16th   2011A compilation of news reports from the past week for the information of those committed to praying
for the Restoration of Israel & the Jewish People
A Messianic Ministry Based on Mt Carmel

 Josie's Comment:  The Fruit of Your Prayerful "Plowing"Proverbs 27:18    Whoever keeps the fig tree (Israel ) will eat of its fruit.  As we all know, there is much work to be done for Israel’s restoration and salvation. We read in Acts 3:21 that the return of the Messiah will not take place until the "times of restoration" of all that the prophets prophesied, has come to pass.

I see this work of restoration like “plowing”   What does plowing mean? …  referring to a farmland when  the soil is being plowed, it is broken up, turned over, tilled, stirred.   The Lord is looking for spiritual plowers.  What is a plower in the natural ? -  one who leads or guides  the plow ( a piece of equipment used in farming) . The plow turns the soil in preparation for the planting of the seeds.   We are the “plowers” and our plow is the word of God.  The “plowing” for Israel is surely in process.   The field is getting ripe for the harvest.

The Lord of the Harvest Himself said about His people, through the prophet Ezekiel  in Ezekiel 36:9  For indeed I am for you , and I will turn to you and you shall be tilled and sown.
Plowing spiritually is preparing a spiritual highway, preparing the way for the Jewish people, for Jewish hearts to be tilled, and stirred ready to have seeds of truth planted and then for the rain of the Spirit to soak in and bring  fruits of salvation, revelation and truth  We are plowing spiritually by our prayer and intercession.  Plowing is hard work and at times can get tedious, but we  need to keep plowing. If a farmer stops his work before the harvest is ready, he will never see his harvest. 
 Plowing spiritually, through prayer and intercession will bring in a harvest of Jewish souls, it will bring Jewish people home to Israel, (Aliyah)  it will prepare their hearts to listen when we speak to them and pray for them, it will cause them to see and know their Messiah.

If we take a quick look at Nehemiah 4:16-19 it speaks about the people rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. The enemies of Israel, were once again opposing the plans and purposes of God, and the builders.   They were threatening to impede the process of  building.  This is exactly what is happening again today. The builders,  therefore, needed to have in one hand weapons and the other hand their tools. Weapons to defend themselves and tools to do the work.

As we "build" the kingdom of God, our weapons today are the word of God, worship, intercession, praise, prayer, the blood and name of Yeshua our Messiah.  Our tools are assisting Israel, in practical ways - coming to volunteer here in the land, helping with Aliyah, visiting the land to walk and pray throughout the land, ministering to the people on the streets, planting seeds of hope, praying for them, assisting in financial ways, being a "voice-piece" for Israel.   "Plowing" and "Building" for the kingdom of God, are one in the same .

We all have a choice to bless or curse, life and death is in the power of the tongue, either saltwater will come forth, or spring water will come forth from our mouths .  The Lord of the Harvest says in Deuteronomy 30:19 Choose this day life or death,  blessing or curse. Most of us have chosen life and to bless His nation and people, and as it is written in Genesis 12:3  if we bless Israel we will be blessed.   This scripture I believe beautifully blends with the scripture in  Proverbs 27:18  Whoever keeps the fig tree (Israel ) will eat of its fruit.  The blessings for Israel, are for the non Jewish people also, if they are grafted in and are assisting the Fig Tree (Israel) to help her arrive at her season of fruitfulness and harvest,  they too, will eat of her "fruits" (blessings)  The ultimate blessing will be the return of the Messiah to re-establish the Kingdom of God in Jerusalem.

I want to thank all of you that are “plowers” and "builders"  for Israel.  Thank you to those that have been “plowing” and "building" on behalf of Israel for decades, helping to plow Israel into her fruitful place of salvation. As we take a hold of the plow and pick up our weapons and tools we will not look back, but look up,  and forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead Philippians 3:13
The field of Israel is getting ripe for the harvest. Your labors are not in vein.  May the Lord continue to strengthen each one of us to press on, as we continue "building the walls" and "plowing in the field " of the Lord of the Harvest !   In return David and I continue to pray that you will reap and enjoy much fruit from the "Fig Tree" (Israel ) .
 The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the God of Israel.  Lets pray that Israel will turn back to their God.  Do not be silent, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims,  and please remember to pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of God.Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie
THIS WEEKS NEWS REPORTS   
In first new disclosures on the storming of Israel's Cairo embassy which started Friday night, Sept. 9, debkafile's counter-terror sources reveal that the mob was led by the terrorist Jama'a al-Islamiya, the Egyptian founding branch of Al Qaeda, and two other radical Egyptian Islamist groups.  The February 1993 car bombing of the World Trade Center of New York, which was the forerunner of the Sept. 11, 2001 atrocities, was an early Jama'a operation under the al Qaeda label.  Closely linked to Osama bin Laden's successor, Ayman al Zawahri, Jama'a al-Islamiya is now running for election in post-Mubarak Egypt.
Its mentor is the "blind sheikh" Omar Abdel Rahman, who is serving a life sentence for masterminding the first World Trade Center bombing. Jama'a adherents stormed the Israeli embassy Friday night along with activists of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Egyptian Students April 6 Movement.
   Debkafile's intelligence sources also reveal that Egyptian security forces delayed for eight hours before tackling the mob smashing into the embassy building and rampaging inside – even after US Ambassador Anne Patterson interceded on behalf of the six Israel security officers barricaded in the embassy's security room as the rabble battered on its steel door.   She acted to save their lives on direct orders from President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after Ambassador Yitzhak Levanon and 80 members of staff and families had been collected from their homes and lifted out of Egypt by two Israeli military planes.  The Egyptian authorities only tackled the mob when violent groups broke into police headquarters in the upscale Giza district, stripped the gunroom and shared the weapons among themselves before returning to the street.  Before that, the local police stood by and watched them sacking and burning the embassy without moving.   Scared of the rioters, the Egyptian commandos ordered to rescue the six Israelis under threat of lynch, discarded their uniforms and mingled with the crowd.  They then dressed the six Israelis like typical Egyptians and hustled them to safety past a throng of 40,000 howling for Israeli blood.
    During the embassy attack until early Saturday Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu tried unsuccessfully to raise Field Marshall Mohammed Tantawi, head of the Supreme Military Council ruling Egypt, on the phone. Tantawi refused to take his calls. Defense Minister Ehud Barak kept open lines to US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta in Washington and Egyptian intelligence chief Gen. Murad Muwafi in Cairo. At some point, Panetta was patched through to Muwafi through Jerusalem.   1. Israeli embassy break-in led by Jam'a al-Islamiya of NY 1993 bombing   Debkafile News   Sept 10th     Please pray that the Israeli government realises that the peace with Egypt is history & prepares for all eventualities
2.  Cairo Mob Attacked CNN: 'They Were Animals'   Aruztz 7 News  Sept 11th   CNN journalists described the Friday mob that attacked them during the riot at the Israeli embassy as “animals.” One other journalist was called a spy and almost was raped.  The worldwide news site reported a scene that brought back ugly memories of the gang rape of CBS reporter Lara Logan earlier this year during the Arab spring uprising against the Mubarak regime.   CNN reported that one person in the mob on Friday called Dina Amer, a woman member of another American crew, “a spy.” A  CNN producer who is an Egyptian approached to rescue the woman from the rioters, but “the mob overwhelmed the pair,” the network reported.    "I was thinking, how powerless I was because there was no police to save us," said the producer, Mohammed Fadel Fahmy. "I was worried that they were going to rape her."   Someone shouted to Fahmy that there was a nearby car, and he brought the “spy” into the vehicle, which belonged to a television crew.  “When Margaret Warner, a correspondent with the PBS program ‘Newshour’ managed to get the vehicle moving away from the crowd, men threw stones at the departing vehicle,” the journalist said.   "They were animals," said Amer.   The rioters also attacked Egyptian journalists, including a reporter for Egyptian state television. Many correspondents ran for their lives. Please pray that the rest of the world realises that the radical Muslims are  blood-thirsty animals who are not interested in peace
3. Turkish PM Wants War With Israel   DebkaFile  Sept 9th    Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan this week coolly moved his country step by provocative step towards an armed clash with Israel not just over the Palestinian issue, but because he covets the gas and oil resources of the eastern Mediterranean opposite Israel's shores.   Thursday night, Sept. 8th, he announced that Turkish warships will escort any Turkish aid vessels for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. In his remarks to Al Jazeera television, the Turkish prime minister also said he had taken steps "to stop Israel from unilaterally exploiting natural resources from the eastern Mediterranean."  He did not say what steps he had taken. However, for some time now, he has moved mountains to isolate Israel by drawing a double diplomatic noose around it.  If Turkish ships breach the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza, which a UN report last week pronounced legitimate under international law, Erdogan will become the first Muslim leader to embark on military action in the Palestinian cause. The Arab nations which fought Israel time after time in the past will be made to look ineffectual and the Turkish leader the regional big shot. Even Iran would be put in the shade for not daring to provoke Israel as Turkey is.  Erdogan plans to send his warships into this water for two missions:

1. To split the Israel's small Navy into two heads one for sustaining the blockade against Gaza and one for safeguarding the gas and oil rigs opposite its shores.
2.  To scare Israel into the full or partial stoppage of its offshore oil and gas operations, thereby robbing it of energy power status and substantial economic gains. Erdogan is determined never to let Israel overshadow Turkey in the regional stakes and will put a stop to the Jewish state's progress even if military aggression is called for.

    Debkafile's military sources report that the Turkish prime minister is resolved to corner Israel into an inescapable military confrontation. It might not happen at once or even within a week, but it will happen a lot sooner than many Israeli politicians and military chiefs imagine because he is using Israel as his ticket to regional prestige.   From Ankara, the Turkish leader watches the sharing out of Libyan oil as the spoils of war among the Western powers and Qatar as an outsider.  Since he can't pluck up courage to intervene in Syria, he has plumped for seizing eastern Mediterranean natural resources to elevate Turkey's standing. Not only will he snatch the treasure out of Israel's hands but no less important, he will challenge his country's traditional rival Greece whose military ties with Israel are growing stronger.
    As for Washington, Erdogan is counting on President Barack Obama's backing in a military clash with Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak are less confident of US support. This gives Turkey an edge in a conflict the cost of the passive military policy pursued consistently by Israeli leaders in the face of security threats.   Please pray that Israel will not be caught unprepared for any problems with Turkey
4. New Tech Lets Turkish Planes Label Israel Enemy    Arutz 7 News   Sept 13th      In yet another sign of the deterioration in Israel-Turkish ties, Turkey’s Star Gazete reported Tuesday that the military is installing new technology that will allow warplanes and ships to target Israeli vessels. Previously, Turkish planes, ships and submarines used American technology, which automatically classified Israeli equipment as “friendly.”    The new system, developed in Turkey, will allow the Turkish military to decide which targets to label as friendly.   The switch was pioneered by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s regime.  
     Also  Turkey dispatched 3 warships to the Eastern Mediterranean to 'defend against Israeli vessels' and ensure 'freedom of navigation' for his country’s ships, Today's Zaman reported.    The move, only the latest in Erdogan's viscious verbal assault  on Israel, comes on the same day  he called Israel's boarding of the Gaza-bound Mavi Marmara in 2010 grounds for war " adding only Turkey's "greatness and patience" had averted conflict.   Please pray that Turkey will not be so foolish to start a war with Israel
5. Hamas Rulers of Gaza Oppose PA's UN Statehood Bid      Arutz 7 News    Sept 15th    The Hamas rulers of Gaza have announced their opposition to the Palestinian Authority bid for recognition at the United Nations as a new country and membership among the international body's ranks.   Senior members of Hamas told the Ma'an news agency this week that the reason is that the statehood bid by the Ramallah-based PA government, led by the rival Fatah faction, would constitute recognition of Israel as a state.   Such recognition is diametrically opposed to the Hamas platform, which refuses to recognize Israel as a legitimate entity, renounce terrorism or uphold prior agreements negotiated by other PA governments. These three conditions were set by the Quartet of peacekeeping nations -- Russia, the United States, the European Union and the United Nations -- as necessary for the resumption of funding to the region. Nevertheless, most of the Quartet members have managed to find loopholes through which to channel monies to the Gaza.  
      The Islamic Jihad  terrorist organization has come out against the PA statehood bid at the United Nations as well. Neither is a member of the PLO umbrella organization that, despite this, claims to be the “sole representative” of “all” Palestinian people worldwide.   Oxford University scholar and former PLO representative Karma Nabulsi is also opposed to the plan, but for different reasons.   Nabulsi told Al Jazeera in an interview, “We have been informed by our officials that the initiative will advance our rights to self-determination. However, as it is currently constructed, this initiative does not actually advance or protect this collective right of the Palestinian people.”   It is the Ramallah-based PA, led by Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, whose term officially expired in January 2009, that is the driving force behind the U.N. initiative, although the PLO will make the formal proposal. The PLO is the official representative of the group to the United Nations.   There are also concerns being expressed by “ex-pats,” both within the PA territories and abroad, that the resolution in its current form “will replace the PLO as our representative at the U.N. with the Palestinian State,” Nabulsi said“Please continue to pray that the Lord will overule the vote if it takes place6. Israel Evacuates Jordan Embassy After Protest Threat    Arutz & News   Sept  15th     Israel evacuated its embassy in Amman, Jordan, late on Wednesday night, after calls by Jordanian activists for a million man near the embassy building.   The Foreign Ministry decided not take a chance that the protests might escalate to a violent riot, such as the one Cairo last week, and made a decision to evacuate the embassy. According to reports in the Israeli media, it was decided to bring the embassy staff back to Israel and a convoy of Israeli diplomats crossed the Allenby Bridge at around midnight local time.   Earlier it was reported that Jordanian protesters are planning a million man march on Thursday.  During the march, which will be entitled “Jordan Will Help Free Palestine,” the protesters are expected to demand that the Israeli Embassy in Amman be shut down.   The call to protest against the Israeli Embassy was made by Jordanian activists but was welcomed among many political parties in Jordan that were quick to announce they would take part in the mass demonstration.   Please pray that this march is a non-event7.  Arabs From Mainstream Village Planned Attacks    Arutz 7 News   Sept 15th     Five Israeli Arabs have been arrested for conspiring to commit terror attacks, it was revealed for publication Thursday. The five, residents of the Galilee village of Daburiya, were arrested last month, and were indicted Thursday on charges of conspiracy to kidnap IDF soldiers and carry out terror attacks.   Among other things, the gang was in advanced stages of planning to kidnap an IDF soldier and a Border Police officer who live in their town, and to steal their weapons. They were then going to use the weapons to attack police stations and other places in Jewish towns in the Galilee.  Far from an isolated village, Daburiya, at the foot of Mt. Tabor in the lower Galilee, is well-known to many Israelis. The suspects themselves also seemed to be part of the greater Israeli community; one suspect, Elkhadar Atrash, 24 was a student until recently at Haifa University, while 20 year old Shadi Ali Fuad Ibrahim is a current student at Israel's prestigious Technion. A third suspect, 21 year old Mahdi Mazalhah, was born in Daburiya but is currently a resident of Abu Ghosh, the large Arab town outside Jerusalem frequented by many Israelis for shopping and dining.
     Under interrogation, the five admitted to being members of the radical Islamic “Salfiya Jihadiya” movement, which preaches outright Jihad against Israel and the West, and demands the institution of Islamic Shariya law everywhere. Atrash set up a website where he distributed articles and posts advocating the views of the movement, and was a close confidante of radical Nazareth preacher Sheikh Natam Sakhfa, the head of the Ansar Allah movement, whose philosophy has long been considered the ideological root of Al Qaeda's view of the world. The movement, headquartered in Nazareth, was recently declared illegal in Israel because of the violence it advocates.Please pray that all such terror plans be revealed and prevented
