Barack H. Chamberlain and Iran
By MICHAEL FREUND, JPOST— If several alarming media reports are true, US President Barack Obama is moving perilously closer to a nuclear deal with Iran that will endanger Israel and all of Western civilization.

This week’s prayer points
1: The V-15 AND ONE VOICE CONTROVERSY HEATING UP. This should be a HUGE story in the USA, but the left wing media here is giving it a pass.

Pro-Palestinian UK Priest Suggests Jews Behind 9/11
By RYAN JONES, ISRAEL TODAY— The Church of England has launched an investigation into charges of anti-Semitism made against one of its more controversial vicars, Dr. Stephen Sizer.
