First, the nation is divided between liberal and conservative political ideologies. This division is viewed by the enemies of Israel as a weakness, making them vulnerable to a military invasion. Second, military analysts in Israel are voicing concern over Israel\u2019s ability to successfully engage in a ground war. They have expressed that most of Israel\u2019s military leaders have focused exclusively on the nuclear and missile threats of Iran and their proxy terrorist organizations that are based on Israel\u2019s northern and southern borders. They have observed that in recent years Israel has been very reluctant to commit ground troops in the war against Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza. Perhaps these enemies of Israel are listening to these assessments, and they are ready to pounce. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> <span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: largel;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">According to <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><i>The Times of Israel<\/i><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">, in May, Israeli F-35s \u201ccarried out air maneuvers over the Mediterranean Sea simulating striking Iranian nuclear facilities as part of a large-scale military exercise called Chariots of Fire\u201d (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.timesofisrael.com\/report-israeli-f-35s-penetrated-iranian-airspace-repeatedly-during-war-drills\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><i>Times of Israel<\/i><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">, August 24, 2022<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">).

People now have the ability to participate in a digitalized monetary system. Bank accounts, checks, credit cards, and online banking are just a few options available in our current digitalized economic system. In stark contrast to this, in recent years, people have also had the right to use cash in almost all financial transactions. However, this is beginning to change. Very slowly, people around the world are being forced to surrender their right to use cash. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: largel;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">Most people do not know this is an orchestrated plan to force them to surrender their economic security and rights into the hands of evil people who are waiting to seize all their assets. In the U.S., the Federal Reserve (a group of elite bankers and wealthy people who control the wealth of America and are not a part of the federal government) are working with other global elites to develop a more complete digitalized economy. Currently, there is not enough cash in banks to cover all the savings and investment accounts in America. Our bank statements are nothing more that digital records of financial units that are symbolically attached to the value of the U.S. dollar. In essence, this is a digitalized monetary system. However, they now want to do away with all paper money. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: largel;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">Paper currency gives people the freedom to operate with some level of privacy.

This is much like what transpires when we use our credit cards to purchase something. When the nations are ready to implement this digital monetary system, they will remove all physical currency. People will be forced to adopt this new method of economic power if they want to financially participate in local, national, and global markets. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: largel;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">The CBDC dollars will be able to control and monitor all our purchases.

Or, if we do not comply with their demands [like taking the COVID-19 injections] they can shut down our digital account and we will not be able to purchase or pay for anything until we comply with their demands. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\" align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: largel;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\">On March 9, 2022, President Biden signed an executive order that called for the federal government to consider establishing a U.S. Central Bank Digital Currency.

The Bible makes it clear that anyone who attempts to remove the Jewish people from the Land He gave to them, will be in conflict with God. The return of the Jewish people to their ancient homeland is the work of God.

All of Israel\u2019s efforts to establish a peace with the Palestinians have been met with rejection, more terror and death.
