ISRAELIS FORM GREAT HUMAN CHAIN TO EXPRESS SUPPORT FOR UNITED JERUSALEM Chad Groening and Jim Brown--OneNewsNow.com--January 9, 2008

December Issue 2005

Presidential contenders turned their attention Wednesday to the gruel-ing primaries ahead, with Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton and Repub-lican John McCain seeking to capi-talize on the themes that powered their comebacks in New Hampshire. “Nothing quite as invigorating as a win,” McCain said.

Voters in Iowa and New Hampshire left the race for the White House wide open, and Barack Obama, the surprise loser to Clinton in New Hampshire, said unpredictability has become the hallmark of the race.

“Anyone who thinks they know how voters are going to respond at this point are probably misleading them-selves,” the Illinois senator said Wednesday. “And I think voters are not going to let any candidate take anything for granted. They want to lift the hood, kick the tires. They want us to earn it.”

Jan Markell, the founder and director of Olive Tree Ministries, is praising the thousands of Israeli citizens who, on the eve of a visit by President Bush, created a human chain around the old city of Jerusalem in demonstration of their support for a free and united city. Israel supporter Gary Bauer, meanwhile, suggests there are more pressing matters the president should be concerned about than dividing up the Holy City.

The human was staged one day before President Bush arrived in Israel on his fi rst presidential trip there, where he will meet with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and top Israeli offi cials in Jerusalem and visit with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank town of Ramallah. On the trip, Bush is to begin talks with Israeli and Palestinian negotiators on the region’s most contentious issues -- including the division of Jerusalem. But thousands of Israelis braved cold and rainy weather to protest that idea, forming a human chain of solidarity.

Markell accuses world leaders of being delusional in their repeated efforts to make peace with the Muslims. “I think that all nations of the world -- including America, for some reason -- are seduced and deluded into believing that if we just give the Muslim-Arab world what they want, and part of that is dividing Jerusalem, [that] there will be world peace,” says Markell.

“So will it ever happen?” she asks. “I’m not so sure God will let it happen. But on the other hand, we have the Zechariah verse playing out that Jerusalem will be the ‘burdensome stone’ for the whole world [Zechariah 12:3]. So, it could happen.”

America could face severe judgment, the ministry leader believes, if it helps bring about a divided Jerusalem. “I believe there is a correlation, and it’s all based on Genesis

12:3 where God says ‘I will bless those who bless you Israel, I will curse those that curse you,’” she maintains. “And I just don’t want America, our beloved America to come under any kind of further judgment beyond what we’re already getting.”

Meanwhile, evangelical leader Gary Bauer -- a leading pro-Israel activist in America and member of the executive board for Christians United for Israel -- believes President Bush is pursuing the wrong objectives with his current Mideast peace tour. The prominent Christian Zionist contends Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice should not be calling on Israel to freeze settlement

construction.

“The president and Condoleezza Rice have taken a real turn here in recent months,” Bauer shares. “I think they’re putting undue pressure on the state of Israel to make more concessions. I think that’s a dangerous, dangerous thing to do that will not only harm Israel, but ultimately harm the United States.”

Bauer wishes Bush would “back off of his obsession ... with a Palestinian state” and, instead, focus on more pressing issues -- such as confronting the threat from Iran’s nuclear ambitions and its aggression, which was on display Sunday when Iranian boats threatened to blow up U.S. Navy vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. He says it is unfortunate the U.S. vessels did not fi re on the Iranians.

“I think we were being tested,” observes Bauer. “And I think it’s much more likely that we are going to lose a U.S. naval vessel in the future because of the lessons that Iran learned in this incident this past weekend.”

According to Bauer, “The biggest threat facing the U.S. Navy in the Persian Gulf and the strategic Strait of Hormuz is a ‘swarm attack’ by dozens or even hundreds of small Iranian vessels loaded with explosives.” He notes that “it only took one such boat to disable the USS Cole and kill 17 sailors in October 2000.”

Clinton, in morning talk show ap-pearances, attributed her win in part to her success late in the race in tell-ing voters why she’s in public life, a reference to her choking up when a voter asked her how she was far-ing. Asked whether that was a turn-around for her, she said, “I think it could well have been.”

McCain did well among New Hamp-shire’s concerned with national se-curity and the threat of terrorism. “Those are the themes,” he said. “I have the knowledge and experience and judgment.”

Clinton, McCain and Obama com-mented in a round of talk show ap-pearances on ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox.

New Hampshire placed Clinton squarely back in the contest for the

Democratic nomination after her
