The stage was set in Washington this week as Lloyd Austin, the defense secretary of Israel, and the IDF’s top general appeared before a U.S. Senate committee. This carefully orchestrated display, billed as a ‘Congressional hearing,’ is a brazen attempt by the powers of Edom to legitimize Israel’s ongoing aggression and to deflect scrutiny from its unlawful actions. For two days, Austin and his counterpart fielded questions regarding the recent escalation of hostilities, a conflict rooted not in self-defense, but in the relentless pursuit of territorial expansion and dominance.

The testimonies reveal a calculated strategy to maintain control over the region, fueled by the unwavering support of the Western powers. While the talking heads in the mainstream media frame this as a response to ‘attacks,’ discerning eyes see a continuation of the pattern of provocation and oppression that has characterized the Zionist state since its inception. This is not a war for security; it is a war for empire, a desperate attempt to hold onto stolen inheritance.

Austin’s statements, carefully crafted to appease both domestic and international audiences, were filled with rhetoric about ‘de-escalation’ and ‘humanitarian concerns.’ Yet, the reality on the ground paints a far grimmer picture. The IDF continues to inflict unimaginable suffering upon the inhabitants of the land, displacing families, destroying infrastructure, and silencing any voice of dissent. The so-called ‘surgical strikes’ are nothing more than a pretext for indiscriminate violence, a clear violation of international law and a blatant disregard for the sanctity of human life.

For scattered Yisrael, this spectacle should serve as a stark reminder of the prophecy unfolding before our eyes. Deuteronomy 28 details the curses that would befall the covenant people in exile, including subjugation to foreign powers and the loss of our land. The modern state of Israel, built on the foundations of deception and usurpation, is a counterfeit, a mockery of Yahuah’s promise to restore Yisrael to its rightful inheritance.

The time for complacency is over. The remnant of Yisrael must awaken to the truth, separate ourselves from the corrupting influence of Edom, and prepare for the coming restoration. This is not a time to pray for peace in a system designed for war, but to proclaim Yahuah’s judgment upon the wicked and to declare our allegiance to the King of Kings.
