LIBERATED YERUSHALIYIM, D.C. (David's Capital), Liberated Israelite Tribal Territories of Yehudah and Binyamin, Kingdom of David and Shlomo, United Israelite Kingdom of Yehudah and Yosef, Yom Shlishi, 16 Shvat, 5766, Root & Branch Information Services [mailto:rb@rb.org.il]:

Let the United States Congress convene a Committee of Investigation on the Current Criminal Regime's (C.C.R./"State of Israel"'s) GUSH KATIF Deportation and AMONA Pogrom [http://www.iris.org.il/brutality/brutality.htm].

Let the U.S. Congressional Committee of Investigation come UP to Liberated Eretz Yisrael to interview the victims of the GUSH KATIF Deportation and AMONA Pogrom and interrogate the perpetrators.

Let the U.S. Congressional Committee of Investigation subpoena Acting "Prime Minister" Olmert and Associated Criminals to WASHINGTON, D.C. to testify about and be held accountable for the GUSH KATIF Deportation and AMONA Pogrom that they committed -- by the Grace of the G-d of Israel may they not escape punishment.

Let the U.S. Congressional Committee of Investigation bring the victims of the GUSH KATIF Deportation and AMONA Pogrom to WASHINGTON, D.C. to testify about the atrocities that were committed against them, and there to confront their tormentors.

Let the U.S. Congressional Committee of Investigation expose the corruption and three million dollar bribe from Austrian Jewish businessman Martin Schlaff to Now Catheterized Vegetable Ariel Sharon that resulted in the deportation of ten thousand Jewish Pioneers from their homes in GUSH KATIF, currently being replaced by casinos, money laundering operations, "Saudi" Arabian petro-dollar profit financed Wahhabi Hamas and the British/Schlaff Gaza gas business [www.nakim.org].

May the G-d of Israel breathe the Spirit of Life into the dry bones of a U.S. Congress now asleep.

Once WASHINGTON, D.C. was seen as a "city on a hill" ("for wee must Consider that wee shall be as a Citty upon a Hill, the eies of all people are uppon us", Puritan Founding Father John Winthrop of blessed memory -- please see Note).

Let the U.S. Congress AWAKEN.

Let the People of Israel -- and the false shepherds currently in power here who torment us -- know that there is still a "city on a hill" where Servants of the G-d of Israel fear Him, and that He is sending them to the Land of Israel at this Time of Jacob's Trouble to fight shoulder to shoulder with G-d's People to overthrow our tormentors.

Let "the People that shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the nations" [Bamidbar/Numbers 23:9] know that we are not alone:

"And He will set up an ensign for the nations,
And will assemble the dispersed of Israel,
And gather together the scattered of Judah,
From the four corners of the Earth.
The envy also of Ephraim shall depart,
And they that harass Judah shall be cut off;
Ephraim shall not envy Judah,
And Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
And they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines to the West;
Together shall they spoil the Children of the East;
They shall put forth their hand upon Edom and Moab;
And the Children of Ammon shall obey them.
And the Lord will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea;
And with His scorching wind will He shake His hand over the River,
And will smite it into seven streams,
And cause men to march over dryshod.
And there shall be a highway for the remnant of His People,
That shall remain from Assyria;
Like as there was for Israel
In the day that he came up out of the land of Egpyt".

[Yeshayahu/Isaiah 11:12-16]

The People of Israel looks forward to soon welcoming the U.S. Congressional Committee HOME to Liberated Eretz Yisrael.

Shabbat Shalom and Purim Sameach from Liberated Yerushaliyim,

Note: John Winthrop's City upon a Hill, 1630

Now the onely way to avoyde this shipwracke and to provide for our posterity is to followe the Counsell of Micah, to doe Justly, to love mercy, to walke humbly with our God,

for this end, wee must be knitt together in this worke as one man, wee must entertaine each other in brotherly Affeccion, wee must be willing to abridge our selves of our superfluities, for the supply of others necessities, wee must uphold a familiar Commerce together in all meekenes, gentlenes, patience and liberallity,

wee must delight in eache other, make others Condicions our owne rejoyce together, mourne together, labour, and suffer together, allwayes haveing before our eyes our Commission and Community in the worke, our Community as members of the same body, soe shall wee keepe the unitie of the spirit in the bond of peace,

the Lord will be our God and delight to dwell among us, as his owne people and will commaund a blessing upon us in all our wayes, soe that wee shall see much more of his wisdome power goodnes and truthe then formerly wee have beene acquainted with,

wee shall finde that the God of Israell is among us, when tenn of us shall be able to resist a thousand of our enemies, when hee shall make us a prayse and glory, that men shall say of succeeding plantacions: the Lord make it like that of New England: for wee must Consider that wee shall be as a CITTY UPON A HILL, the eies of all people are uppon us;

soe that if wee shall deale falsely with our god in this worke wee have undertaken and soe cause him to withdrawe his present help from us, wee shall be made a story and a byword through the world, wee shall open the mouthes of enemies to speake evill of the wayes of god and all professours for Gods sake;

wee shall shame the faces of many of Gods worthy servants, and cause theire prayers to be turned into Cursses upon us till wee be consumed out of the good land whether wee are going: And to shutt upp this discourse with that exhortacion of Moses that faithfull servant of the Lord in his last farewell to Israell Deuteronomy 30.

Beloved there is now sett before us life, and good, deathe and evill in that wee are Commaunded this day to love the Lord our God, and to love one another to walke in his wayes and to keepe his Commaundements and his Ordinance, and his lawes, and the Articles of our Covenant with him that wee may live and be multiplyed, and that the Lord our God may blesse us in the land whether wee goe to possesse it:

But if our heartes shall turne away soe that wee will not obey, but shall be seduced and worshipp other gods our pleasures, and proffitts, and serve them, it is propounded unto us this day, wee shall surely perishe out of the good Land whether wee passe over this vast Sea to possesse it;

Therefore lett us choose life, that wee, and our Seede, may live; by obeyeing his voyce, and cleaveing to him, for hee is our life, and our prosperity.

John Winthrop

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Winthrop (12 January 1587/8–26 March 1649) was elected governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629 and on 8 April 1630 he led a large party from ENGLAND for the NEW WORLD.

He was born in EDWARDSTONE, SUFFOLK, ENGLAND, the son of Adam Winthrop (1548–1623) and his wife, Anne Browne. Winthrop briefly attended Trinity College, Cambridge, then studied law at Gray's Inn, and in the 1620s became an attorney at the Court of Wards in LONDON.

Winthrop was extremely religious and subscribed fervently to the Puritan belief that the Anglican Church had to be cleansed of Catholic ritual. Winthrop was convinced that God would punish ENGLAND for its heresy, and believed that English Puritans needed a shelter away from England where they could remain safe during the time of God's wrath.

Other Puritans who believed likewise obtained a royal charter for the Massachusetts Bay Company. Charles I of ENGLAND was apparently unaware that the colony was to be anything other than a commercial venture to America. However, on March 4, 1629, Winthrop signed the Cambridge agreement with his wealthier Puritan friends, essentially pledging that they would embark on the next voyage and found a new Puritan colony in NEW ENGLAND.

In the Spring of 1630, Winthrop led a fleet of eleven vessels and seven hundred passengers -- The Winthrop Fleet of 1630 -- to the MASSACHUSETTS BAY COLONY in the NEW WORLD, the greatest ever assembled to carry Englishmen overseas to a new homeland.

Winthrop had been elected governor of the colony prior to departure, in 1629, and was re-elected many times. As governor he was one of the least radical of the puritans trying to keep the number of executions for heresy to a minimum and working to prevent the implementation of such innovations as veiling women, which many Puritans supported.

He is most famous for his "City on a Hill" sermon (as it is known popularly, its real title being "A Modell of Christian Charity"), in which he declared that the Puritan colonists emigrating to the NEW WORLD were members of a special pact with God to create a holy community. This speech is often seen as a forerunner to the concept of American exceptionalism. The speech is also well known for arguing that the wealthy had a holy duty to look after the poor. Recent history has shown, however, that the speech was not given much attention at the time of its delivery. Rather than coin these concepts Winthrop was merely repeating what were widely held Puritan beliefs in his day.

The Town of WINTHROP, MASSACHUSETTS is named after him.
