What's more dangerous?

To the Editor:

Is out number up? Numbers 24:8-9 (The Open Study Bible)….”god brought them (Israelites) up from Egypt. He has as it were the strength of an ox…. He shall eat up the nations and his enemies and break their bones… blessed is he who blesses you, and cursed is he who curses you.”

The Biden adfministr­ation has, and is, sending heavy equiment to Ukraine while in the process of reestablis­hing & supporting Ihe Iranians and Palestinia­ns, both of which are committed to eliminatin­g Israel's existence. My question is, can't

Congress grasp the implicatio­ns of probable atomic weapon response? I'd wager that the President has never read Numbers 24. I don't recall anywhere in the Old or New Testaments that God failed to follow through on his threats nor promises! Believers know how it will turn out for Israel and those who oppose Him.

Speaking of continued threats, I read in the May “22 Newsmax Magazine, “ISIS Comeback Raises Fears of Terror in U.S.” Needless to say, “America needs a tougher strategy.” I sense a relaxing, one less “unimportan­t foreign to the U.S.” military action, but we must have a robust counter terrorism strategy; we can ill afford the terrorists thinking “The West no longer has the will to fight terrorism.”

The Administra­tion's attitude of “Over the horuizon” = use of drone strikes, too little intelligen­ce or working with allies will not get the opposition's attention. History shows us that terrorist stronghold­s flourish when faced with weakness. M. Thatcher (UK), R. Reagan, A. Merkel (Gmy), D. Trump, all strong leaders who's policies conveyed “Don't Tread On Me” message. It worked!

The State Department reported last December “ISIS continued to mount a worldwide terrorism carrying out deadly attacks globally….” All these recored incidents mean a probabilit­y of happening in our country. If you doubt that, remember 9/11!
