Donald Trump, a figurehead of the Western power structure—Edom—has brazenly declared that the oil-rich nations of the Gulf must pay the United States for protection of the Strait of Hormuz. This is not a matter of strategic defense; it is a blatant act of extortion, a demonstration of the insatiable greed that defines the latter days.

Trump’s demand lays bare the true nature of the relationship between Edom and the nations. It is not partnership, but parasitism. The so-called ‘protection’ offered by the United States is merely a transaction—a price is set for maintaining the flow of resources that fuel the Edomite empire. This is a continuation of a pattern of exploitation stretching back millennia, where Edom has consistently sought to control the wealth and destiny of Yisrael and the nations.

The Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway for global oil transport, has become a focal point of tension, manipulated by Edom to justify its presence and extract further wealth. The manufactured conflict serves to enrich the power brokers of the West while simultaneously sowing discord among the nations. Yahuah warns against trusting in the arm of flesh (Isaiah 31:1), and this spectacle is a stark reminder of the futility of seeking security through worldly alliances.

For scattered Yisrael, this is a time for discernment. We are not to be entangled in the schemes of Edom, nor to place our trust in the false promises of the modern state of Israel, which is deeply aligned with this system. Our security lies not in military might or financial transactions, but in returning to the covenant of our ancestors and seeking Yahuah’s protection.

The call is clear: separate yourselves from the corruption of Edom, prepare your hearts for repentance, and look for the coming deliverance. The hour is late, and the shofar is sounding. The time for awakening is now. The wealth of the nations will not save you, only obedience to Yahuah and adherence to the covenant will bring lasting peace and restoration to the remnant of Yisrael.
