On the heels of the 400 rockets, a UN committee cited Israel for nine—9—condemning resolutions. This is unconscionable. Anti-Semitism is on the rise globally, in some places at pre-World War 2 levels.

No matter what response Israel decides on, the Jewish state will be condemned. Now comes word that a handful of new voice in the U.S. Congress will advocate for Hamas.

One wonders how long God will allow this to continue.
