When Will The Politicians Learn From Their Earlier Errors In Judgement?

When one looks at political events around the world, one often wonders whether all the politicians even pay attention to the history lessons created in the past and draw conclusions from them and therefore avoid making the same mistakes twice.

Hurricane Gustav is expected to hit Louisiana today Sept 01 and cause widespread damage across the same areas as Hurricane Katrina exactly three years ago on August 29, 2005. Katrina was a Category Three hurricane and Gustav will be a minimum Category Three hurricane as well. Initially it was believed to be a Category Five hurricane but since it hit Cuba, some of the force had been dissipated.

Now what am I saying here? what is the cause of Gustav? I believe that Hurricane Gustav came about because some two weeks ago, Secretary of State Condeleza Rice told the Israeli government that Jerusalem will have to be divided back to its East and West Jerusalem status in order for the ongoing peace negotiation between the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli Government can proceed. Now that is drawing on a very delicate line as the Jews believe emphatically that Jerusalem should never be divided and that it belongs to the Jews as their ancient capital (that is why the seat of the Israeli government, the Knesset, is sited in Jerusalem and not Tel Aviv as UN still believes).

I believe that whoever touches the apple of God's eye (the Jews) will have its consequences; if any nation were to bless Israel (the physical descendants of Abraham), that nation will be blessed but if it does not bless them (as in actually cursing them), the nation will suffer a fate that will be worse off that before. This is what was prophesied to Abraham in Genesis 12:3, (Amplified Bible)

"And I will bless those who bless you [who confer prosperity or happiness upon you] and curse him who curses or uses insolent language toward you; in you will all the families and kindred of the earth be blessed [and by you they will bless themselves]

I believe that USA would have been better off if they had not insisted on having the peace agreement signed the way they wanted it to go but should have sat down and really studied the Scriptures and sought the Lord for directions rather than what they had dished out. I am disappointed to say that the politicians are only interested in scoring political points and ignoring the heartbeat of our Lord.
