Independence Day

I wrote this before reading Lazer Brody's The Imminent Geula: Mister "V" and some of the information below is also contained there.  I guess as we approach The End, we're all thinking along the same lines.......Nevertheless, here it is:

The U.S. was founded on the Fast Day of  17 Tammuz 1776. This year America's Independence Day 4th of July again falls out on 17 Tammuz [Shabbat this year] , the beginning of the period known as the ''three weeks'' when the Jewish people remember the destruction of the holy Temples.

It will be the 239th Independence Day, meaning that America will be entering into its 240th year of Independence.  240 is, by the way, the gematria of Amalek [the perpetual enemy of the Jewish people] and the gematria of Dollar.

Since the founding of America on July 4 1776  the two dates have coincided 10 times, in these years: 1776, 1795, 1833, 1844, 1852, 1863, 1882, 1901, 1939 and 1996.  This year 2015 marks the 11th time the dates coincide.

With Confederate flags down and Rainbow flags up, America is slowly morphing into something new altogether.  

Heightened threats of terror attacks all over the world and a Summer of Hate demonstration planned for Golders Green in London, all coming in the middle of Ramadan [June 18 - July 17 this year].  Certainly the ISIS terror attacks of the past week in other parts of the world have shown us that these warnings are not just speculation.

The Parsha for the week - Balak - relates the curses that were turned into blessings - a sign for us, no doubt, that all the terrible things we are living through now will ultimately be turned into good, may it happen speedily in our days !
