Annoyed with Israel, as Usual

Today in Jewish History



Dove brings Olive Leaf (2105 BCE)
On the 301st day of the great Flood, Noah sent a dove for the 2nd time from the ark (see "Today in Jewish History" for Elul 17). This time, the dove stayed away all day; "the dove came in to him in the evening, and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth" (Genesis 8:11).

According to the Jewish calendar, today is the day that the dove released by Noah from his ark after the earth was destroyed by flood returned with an olive leaf in her mouth. This was a sign that there was growing land to be found and the flood sent by God was abating.

Today Israeli jets made hostile entry over the northern part of Syria, a land who, without complaint, has been sheltering one and a half million Iraqi refugees fleeing from the mess in Iraq. I think the government in Israel has an odd idea of timing of their aggression, and that they had better start finding some time for Torah and Bible study. Think about it dummies. I know that Israel has become a secular country a long time ago except when it's convenient for them to hassle Christians and Palestinians, but I suggest they not be so cheeky with their timing with God, to send hostile jets on such a significant day in their very own calendar. Doubly annoying as they sent a representative to the Vatican today too. Who are they kidding? Get religious and get serious, if you please. God is watching.
