About that war between Arabs and Israel,

At that time Jews came, not authentic Jews from middle east, but Jews from Russia, Europe, US and other countries came, with the help of some western countries they seized and occupied Palestinian land claiming it theirs on some irrelevant religious scripts and promises. They made their biblical Israel on the land and blood of Arabs, Jews are not victims, they are attackers.

I want to tell you about the inspiration for the Leonard Cohen song. In 1973 at Yom Kippur broke out terrible war. In this holy day Israel was attacked by Arab countries that surround it. Leonard Cohen arrived in Israel during the war. He performed voluntarily before soldiers about 3 months. L.Cohen experience the traumas of the people under war and their stories. This amazing song was born in this period of his life. As always he's the best.

The lyrics and tune are a traditional song for Yom Kippur, not Cohen's own. See: "Who shall perish by water and who by fire,Who by sword and who by wild beast,Who by famine and who by thirst,Who by earthquake and who by plague,Who by strangulation and who by stoning,Who shall have rest and who shall wander,Who shall be at peace and who shall be pursued,..." -Unetaneh Tokef

interesting, i never knew that. it explains why it pulls on the soul, sort of more powerful than a modern song might be expected to be.

Search for "chemtrails", "Dont talk about the weather", "Endgame HQ". There's a secret program that is poisoning us. I recorded it myself (my chan). We need you to wake others ASAP!
