NETANYAHU WINS REELECTION BY PROMISING THERE WILL NEVER BE A PALESTINIAN STATE.

WHAT'S IN A NAME - PALESTINIANS OR PHILISTINES? The map on the right above is taken from Wikipedia.  It shows that in 830 BCE there was a Philistine State in Gaza and slightly up the coast through Ashkelon and Ashdod (where I once lived). At the same time there were two Jewish nations, with Jerusalem the capital of Judah, and Samaria the capital of Israel. The map on the left above shows that in the New Assyrian Empire (Asshur in the Bible) was essentially Syria. It extended its reach down through Israel into Gaza around 612 BCE. Earlier it had even claimed Egypt as its province back in 671 to 657 BCE. This was the basis of the statement by Syrian dictator Hafez Assad to the PLO leader Yassir Arafat that, "You do not represent Palestine as much as we do. Never forget this one point: There is no such thing as a Palestinian people, there is no Palestinian entity, there is only Syria. You are an integral part of the Syrian people, Palestine is an integral part of Syria. Therefore it is we, the Syrian authorities, who are the true representatives of the Palestinian people."  This quote was not unique or any kind of fluke. Given the fact that the same word can mean PHILISTINE or PALESTINE, the pairing in the Torah Code of these people (really, two separate peoples) with STATE is likely to mean nothing more than the fact that there once was a Philistine State. However, the word STATE is, in fact, not statistically significant as is shown on the spreadsheets below. It has about 1 chance in 3 to be on the 306-letter matrix above. By comparison, the open text reference to PHILISTINES was there against odds of about 100 to 1 which is quite significant for one term.

WHY ARE SOME ARABS CALLED PALESTINIAN NOW?  In 135 CE, after putting down the Bar Kochba revolt, the second major Jewish revolt against Rome, the Emperor Hadrian wanted to blot out the name of the Roman “Provincia Judaea” and so renamed it “Provincia Syria Palaestina.” He chose the name because it was reminiscent of the ancient enemies of the Jews – the Philistines. While the ancient Philistines were from Asia Minor and Greece and were not in any sense Arabs, the current people who largely started to go by the same name after the West Bank was captured from Jordan in 1967 are Arabs. So are the Arabs who live in the area today really Palestinians? Well, it seems like Hafez Assad was not alone among the Arabs in challenging the title. Here are a few other quotes from http://arabterrorism.tripod.com/quotes.html:

(1) "There is no such country [as Palestine]! 'Palestine' is a term the Zionists invented! There is no Palestine in the Bible. Our country was for centuries part of Syria."
- Auni Bey Abdul-Hadi, a local Arab leader, to the Peel Commission, 1937

(2) "Palestine was part of the Province of Syria... politically, the Arabs of Palestine were not independent in the sense of forming a separate political entity."

- The representative of the Arab Higher Committee to the United Nations submitted this in a statement to the General Assembly in May 1947

(3) "There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are all part of one nation. It is only for political reasons that we carefully underline our Palestinian identity.... yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity serves only tactical purposes. The founding of a Palestinian state is a new tool in the continuing battle against Israel."

- Zuheir Muhsin, late Military Department head of the PLO and member of its Executive Council (Dutch daily Trouw, March 1977)

(4) "The Oslo accords were a Trojan Horse; the strategic goal is the liberation of Palestine from the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea"

- Faysal Al-Husseini, Palestinian Authority Minister for Jerusalem Affairs, in his last interview, 'Al-Arabi' daily newspaper (Egypt), June 24, 2001

(5) "This is Palestine from the (Jordan) river to the Mediterranean sea, from Rosh Hanikra to Rafah (in Gaza). The gap between Palestinian expectations and the Israeli conspiracy will inevitably lead to a collision."

- "Our Position" issued by Yasser Arafat's Fatah faction of the PLO in PA newspaper AL HAYAT AL-JADEEDA, Dec. 19, 1998

In Figure 4 above, the axis term is still PALESTINE, but it is only at its 4^th lowest skip, and it requires two computer passes through the Torah to show the name. The change in background color shows where the break between the two passes through Torah occurs. Normally I don't use an axis term with only 6 letters unless there is something special about it like an a priori course angle as with ELS-Map 2. This is even more the case when it requires a wrapped search to locate the axis term. The second Palestine matrix is displayed only for the sake of honesty. It does associate a (single) nation with Palestine, but there already is one today (overlooking the issue of whether any Arabs are really Palestinians) – Jordan. The matrix does not in any way imply a second Palestinian nation in the West Bank, or a third one in Gaza. Up to 75% of Jordan's population is "Palestinian." JORDAN is the only a-priori word on this matrix.

STATISTICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF FIGURE 4. As per my standard protocol, no statistical significance is assigned to the axis term (PALESTINE on both matrices). Nor can any statistical significance be assigned items found a-posteriori, even if they are of great interest. A-posteriori findings include AND THEY DIED BEFORE THE LORD and FOR THERE WAS NOT A HOUSE WHERE THERE WAS NOT ONE DEAD on the first matrix, and FOR A GREAT NATION I WILL MAKE OF HIM  on the third matrix. On it the odds against finding the a priori key word VOTE shown equates to about 130 to 1, but if we add three more 5-letter synonyms for VOTE on the 234-letter matrix with a white background, the odds are lowered to about 47 to 1. If we expand the matrix to include an area of 585 letters with the a-priori word  for WAR, then the combined odds against finding both a priori key words (with four 5-letter synonyms for VOTE) equates to about 95 to 1 (mildly significant). The word VOTE may also also allude to the 2015 vote to reelect Netanyahu that ensured the desire for a Palestinian State DIED BEFORE THE LORD.

       Odds against having the spelling of JORDAN shown on Figure 5 were about 4 to 1, however after an adjustment for the fact that the matrix is only based on the 4th lowest skip of PALESTINE, it is seen to be about 95% certain to be there by now. The Figure 5 is thus judged to be not statistically significant.

       It must be remembered that an Encoder was not bound to design/write the Torah in accordance with a-priori key words that I sought. He may well have simply chosen to combine the axis term with the a-posteriori phrases that I found.

THE ISSUE OF A JEWISH STATE. One last word - while Israel had previously promised to be the first nation to recognize a Palestinian State if it is achieved through negotiations, Abbas and all other Palestinian leaders only promised to recognize "Israel," but they refuse to recognize it as a Jewish state. This means that they would like to see one or two new Palestinian states in the West Bank and Gaza, but they also want the right to have Palestinian "refugees" move back to Israel so the demographics will shift there to make it a Muslim state. Netanyahu offered to freeze settlent construction in exchange for a promise to recognize the Jewish nature of Israel. Abbas declined the offer. Most Arabs (with the great exceptions of President El-Sisi in Egypt and King Abdullah in Jordan) have no intention whatsoever of making peace with Israel. They only want to make Israel and all the world Muslim - through any means possible. Unless this reality changes there can never be a peace process, there can only be security through military superiority and readiness to act in whatever way is necessary to ensure Israeli (and American) security.

FOR THE RECORD – HERE ARE THE ONLY COUNTRES TO VOTE AGAINST THE PALESTINIAN BID: The countries opposing the move were the US, Israel, Canada, the Czech Republic, Palau, Micronesia, Nauru, Panama and the Marshall Islands.

       Back in 2011 the U.N. General Assembly by a vote of 138 to 9 with 41 absentions approved non-member observer State status for Palestine. So what does the Code have to say on the issue? On September 23, 2011, I received an e-mail from Dr. Robert Haralick with the matrix, shown on Figure 6 above, taken from a video on Rabbi Glazerson’s web site. Rabbi Glazerson attributed the original find to Dr. Eliyahu Rips. In it the axis term is one of a few spellings possible for PHILISTINE/PALESTINE.  It is close to an open text reference to the ancient PHILISTINES. Wikipedia states that, “the Bible paints the Philistines as the main enemy of the Israelites to the rise of Assyria in the 8th century BCE, with a state of almost perpetual war between the two peoples. The Philistine cities lost their independence to Tiglath-Pileser III of Assyria by 732 BCE, and revolts in following years were all crushed. They were subsequently absorbed into the Babylonian and Persian empires, and disappear as a distinct group by the late 5th century BCE.” 

     The matrix has PHILISTINE/PALESTINE touch ISHMAEL in the open text. One of two words sought for STATE is at the same absolute skip but opposite direction as the axis term. The year of the failed vote at the U.N. Security Council, 5)771/2011, is on the matrix at skip +2, and a word for THREAT is present at skip -1. After the Palestinians lost, they threatened to take their case to the General Assembly, where they won in 2012, but that year isn't on the matrices shown.

DID NETANYAHU FLIP FLOP AFTER BEING REELECTED? No. He told Megan Kelley of Fox News that, "I didn’t retract any of the things I said in my speech six years ago, calling for a solution in which a demilitarized Palestinian state recognizes a Jewish state. I said that the conditions for that, today, are not achievable for a simple reason: Abu Mazen, the leader of the Palestinians, rejects consistently the acceptance of a Jewish state. He’s made a pact with the Palestinian terrorist organization, Hamas, that calls for our destruction. And the conditions in the Middle East have changed to the point where any territory we withdraw from is immediately taken up by Iranian-backed terrorists or by ISIS." We know that Hamas is not going to volunteer to go away, or allow a Jewish State. Therefore, the reality is this: There will be no Palestinian State because Hamas controls much of "Palestinian" territory, and it remains dedicated to destroying Israel at all costs.

WHAT'S THE BEST SOLUTION FOR PALESTINIANS? Their statehood cause has been destroyed by their dedication to terrorism, which frightened not only Israel, but also its Arab neighbors in Egypt and Jordan. There will never be a Palestinian State. An arrangement should be made to allow Israel or others to buy their land and to move/disperse them to other countries. This is especially true for those living in Gaza, an area that was basically destroyed by Israel in 2014 due to Hamas firing 4,036 rockets and mortars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_rocket_attacks_on_Israel,_2014) into Israel that year alone.

     Perhaps some of those in Gaza who can prove that they are not Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood can be moved into Egypt. Those who are Hamas should be deported to Iran or any other nation that will accept them (but very few will). If there are any liberal Americans who are reading this article, they would do well to hold their tongues unless they are prepared to return all land here to Native Americans who are the original owners. Obama once told Senator John McCain that, “Elections have consequences.” There are also consequences to winning or losing wars. Clearly, the Palestinians have lost every war with Israel. They should seek improved lives elsewhere. Ditto for Israeli Arabs that can not be loyal to a Jewish Nation.

WHERE SHOULD THE PALESTINIANS GO? According to the Pew Research Center in 2010 there were 49 Muslim-majority countries.^[15] Around 62% of the world's Muslims live in South and Southeast Asia, with over 1 billion adherents.^[16] The largest Muslim population in a country is in Indonesia, a nation home to 12.7% of the world's Muslims, followed by Pakistan (11.0%), India (10.9%), and Bangladesh (9.2%).^[1][17] About 20% of Muslims live in Arab countries.^[18] In the Middle East, the non-Arab countries of Turkey and Iran are the largest Muslim-majority countries; in Africa, Egypt and Nigeria have the most populous Muslim communities.^[1][17] The study found more Muslims in the United Kingdom than in Lebanon and more in China than in Syria.^[1]
