The Vilna Gaon says that Armilos [Erev Rav] has one mission: Unite Esav and Yishmael.
For Israel to engage in this War [with Iran] - is a unique twist to making this zivuug happen.
May it be a zchus for Israel!
...and for Obama to be elected by means of War - would be a Divine decree for sure. Romney and his running mate make for a very interesting political chullent at the end of 2012. [i.e. the Adelson scandal]
Either way - Geulah seems something of a politcal equation; Moshiach ben Yosef [or the Ruach of] fits the bill quite nicely.

Israel has received assurances from the administration of Barack Obama, as well as the camp of Republican presumptive nominee, Mitt Romney, that the United States will join a war against Iran on Israel's side, if such a war breaks out.
The daily newspaper Maariv reported Monday that the assurances were delivered in secret messages to senior officials in the bureau of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, from officials close to Obama and from Romney political advisors as well as Republicans who served in senior roles in former administrations and are expected to serve in important roles again if Romney is elected.
According to the report, Israel believes that the U.S. military will supply "a protective umbrella" for Israel in case of a missile attack on Israel by Iran and its proxies Hamas and Hizbullah.
Israel has received similar messages from its U.S. ambassador Michael Oren, after talks he held in Washington, and from pro-Israel lobby AIPAC.
The assessments delivered from the U.S. to Israel are that President Obama will not be able to ignore an Israeli strike on Iran, and certainly not a harsh Iranian response against Israel. If he does so, the chances are that he will lose the elections, according to this line of thinking.
On the other hand, the reasoning goes, joining the fray will increase Obama's chances of reelection, because U.S. voters will not replace a president in a time of war.
Netanyahu and Obama are scheduled to meet on September 27 in New York, where both of them are to address the U.N. General Assembly.
A War Time Decision & Geulah Pending! |
If this Armilus anti-Moshiach fellow is going to be a real physical entity, then amongst his other monstrous depicted traits, Chazal state that he will literally trick the world, including the Jews, in to thinking that he is G-d!
ReplyDeleteThis may sound impossible. But those who witnessed Hitler in full flow testified to feeling that they were in the presence of the Divine! Even Yaakov Avinu stated after partially reconciling with Eisav that "I have seen your face and it is like the Face of G-d!" (Breishis 33:10)
There are 2 types of spiritual energies in this world: the Kedusha of Elokus. And the negative energy of Klippa. They both have an elan, a magnetism, a glamour and a charisma. But the Klippa, being that it is closer to our physical sensorium's perception, often wins out.
Armilus will be the Klippa's Final Ace, his Last Throw, his Trump Card. So don't count it not being LITERALLY true that the whole world will bow down to Armilus believing that he is G-d!
