A funny thing happened to Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu this week. The PM was on his way to the US to speak to the Jewish Federation of North America. Just hours before his departure from Israel the White House, breaking normal protocol, called to demand a last minute meeting with the President. The PM “grudgingly” agreed and was with the Present for an hour and forty minutes. What was discussed? Neither the WH nor the PM met with the media to divulge the purpose or contents of the meeting. What made this most unusual is that Netanyahu is normally quite available to speak with the media. A possible hint as to what may have taken place came the next day when a top State Department official said that the goal of the United States is to pressure Israel into expelling Jews from Judea and Samaria in order to “end the occupation that began in 1967.” (Israel National News). God told Israel not to give up the land that He gave to Israel. American “pressure” to force Israel out of its land will not be a benefit to America, but instead a curse. (Genesis 12:3)
