We pinned many hopes on Donald Trump as against Obama, Clinton and Harris. But now he has started to reveal what MAGA, “Make America Great Again”, really means to him, and he is aggressively imposing it on the entire world. And our doubts are multiplying by the minute.
Trump has shown that he is an extremely sharp thinker and strategist, as well a profuse talker if not a tactless blabbermouth. He claims to like everyone – Erdogan, Jolani, Putin, Xi etc. — at least until they cross him and fall out of favor. His major obsession is evidently with himself. He wants to carve his place in history with such projects as the massive ballroom now being constructed aside the White House (to celebrate what exactly???), adding the name Trump to the Kennedy Center, touting the name Trump at every other opportunity, and above all, boasting about his achievements in “peacemaking”.
Peace-making?
We have yet to see if anything lasting will come of all his efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war. He may be able to take over Greenland for “USA Security” and avoid a crisis with Europe and Nato. However his “peace-making” in other ongoing conflicts has largely been short-lived, and meanwhile he is amassing vast quantities of armaments in anticipation of a full-scale war against China and Russia.
Little Israel
As for little Israel, shortly after Trump’s inauguration he loudly declared that if all the Israeli hostages in Gaza were not released immediately, all hell would break out. What hell? Trump’s diplomacy regarding Gaza in cahoots with Qatar and Turkey, has come at a horrendous cost to Israel, whose army has been hamstrung in defeating Hamas terror by having to follow all of Jared Kushner’s dictates in accord with his “master plan” for Gaza (which does not include Israel).
It is now clear that the American plan for Gaza was finalized some years ago, the intention being to turn the sunbathed fertile strip into a multi-billion dollar leisure center with luxury hotels, spas and other facilities, all built on territory soaked in the blood of Israeli soldiers who died or were seriously wounded in the fight against Hamas evil.
In other words, for Trump, the solution for Gaza, like everything else, is all about money – billions of dollars invested in real estate and other sectors for the benefit of the investors, while providing much needed work for the Gazan Arabs and nothing for Israel. Does anyone seriously believe that Hamas and the Islamic Brotherhood will truly be reformed and disarmed and cease all terror?
Judea and Samaria
When Israel PM Netanyahu some weeks ago touted the idea of annexing Judea and Samaria, integral parts of the Jewish homeland as promised by G-d and even in the Balfour Declaration, Trump and all his team immediately vetoed the idea – and then Trump started asking publicly if he thinks he will go to heaven.
Likewise the idea of any return of the Israeli settlements in Gaza that were dismantled in the disastrous 2005 expulsion has been vetoed in direct contradiction to the prophecy in Tzephaniah 2:4-7 that Gaza will finally revert to Judah.
Syria
Looking further afield in the Middle East today, it is clear that allowing Syria to be taken over by Isis-loving Moslem jihadi Jolani at the bidding of figures like Thomas J. Barrack (a long-term fundraiser for Trump and a lover of Qatar and Turkey) is a complete ongoing humanitarian disaster, with huge numbers of Kurds and Christians currently being massacred or taken as sex slaves by US sanctioned Syrian government jihadis as I write these lines.
So much for Trump the humanitarian “peace-maker”.
Iran
As to Iran, the big demon, Trump’s sudden decision on June 24, 2025, to order Israeli jets to turn back instead of bombing Iran in retaliation for their breach of the then “truce“ has proven to be another disaster. At that time Israel had neutralized all Iran’s air defenses and could have inflicted decisive damage on the regime of the Mullahs. However Trump gave his order, the Iranian regime survived largely unscathed (despite Trump’s boasts about destroying their nuclear programs), they have been rebuilding their air defenses, and in the last couple of weeks they have killed tens of thousands of Iranian protestors and seriously injured many more.
Trump typically blurted out at the start of the protests that if the Iranian regime started killing people, all hell will break out. But thousands and thousands have already been murdered, and so far Trump has done nothing substantive.
It is said that he was ready to order a crippling attack on Iran in mid January, but Steve Witkoff, his special Envoy to the Middle East, persuaded him not to proceed. It needs to be understood that Witkoff, like Jared Kushner and others in Trump’s immediate circle, have literally MEGABUCKS $$ invested in Qatar, a jihadi Moslem terror regime dressed up as an impartial mediator.
An America attack against Iran is without doubt no simple matter, as the regime is likely to react like a feral cat threatened with obliteration. The war that would likely ensure could spread further afield and take a heavy toll, and even strong supporters of Israel are advising caution. The better path would be to steadily weaken the regime through sanctions and clandestine operations until defections cause it to disintegrate by itself.
World Domination
But for Trump, Israel and even Iran are relatively minor pains in the neck when his real intent is for the United States to dominate the entire world politically and economically. This was the purpose of his recent daylight robbery of Venezuelan oil (to undermine Chinese and Iranian influence). This is the purpose of his placing American military bases in Greenland and his desire to incorporate Canada into the USA and to take over the Panama Canal.
This too is the ultimate purpose of his latest announced “Board of Peace” which he wants as a replacement for the totally ineffective United Nations, but which in all likelihood will become the Biggest Bully of All on the Block to ensure American domination and that all US dictates are observed. And what will be in 10 years time when Trump will very possibly be dead and buried and who knows what reincarnation of Obama or Hitler will be in charge by then?
In any event, whether Trump likes it or not, the Prophet Zechariah has already told us that “On that day I shall set Jerusalem as a weighty stone for all the nations, all who lift it will be sorely injured and all the peoples of the earth shall be gathered against her” (Zechariah 12:3). There will be no true peace without the restoration of G-d’s holy Temple in Jerusalem.
The “Deep State” – so far no arrests
In Trump’s reelection campaign, he made a huge deal about exposing and uprooting the “Deep State”, but today, over a year after his second inauguration, Obama, the Clintons, John Brennan (who politicized the CIA) and many other major criminals are still at large, and few if any of the promised “arrests” and “trials” have actually taken place, if they ever will be.
Epstein?
The obfuscation around the “Epstein Files” seems to point to heavy involvement of no less than POTUS himself, and many believe his bombastic policies are intended to divert the public’s attention from this.
Voter ID
Why has Trump so far done nothing substantive to require all US voters to show a valid ID at the polls, when the ease with which ballots could be manipulated was precisely what led to his loss of the 2020 presidential election? When will the Kraken be let loose against the fraudsters?
Are Trump & Co against or actually part of the “Deep State”
The conspiracy theorists (who so often turn out to be right) are now saying that all the politics, the speeches, the news conferences, the deals and photo-ops are all theater and window-dressing, but while the voters believed Trump was going to destroy the Deep State, it is more likely that he is actually part of it.
If not, why does Trump sit with Bill Gates of world depopulation fame and multibillionaire Mark Zuckerberg, whose Facebook platform expelled Trump in the run-up to 2020 election and “fact-checked”, or rather censored, all posts in his support?
Trump was a close buddy with Elon Musk, then rejected him to the point where Musk suggested Trump too frequently participated in the activities on Epstein’s Lolita Express and pleasure island. Musk backtracked and Trump warmed to him again.
Musk comes across as a brilliant, innovative, humanity-loving billionaire who indeed saved the world from social media censorship with his purchase of the Twitter platform renamed “X”. However, Musk is also a pioneer in such wild projects as interplanetary colonization, but above all humanoid robotics and Artificial Intelligence, which are likely to become a major instruments of centralized control of entire populations as is already the case in China.
Musk’s business enterprises involve massive government participation, which is only possible in the case of “insiders” who are working in the direction of the New World Order, whatever that will be.
The Wicked Empire
The Talmud in Avodah Zara 2b states that at the “End of Days”, the “Wicked Empire” (Edom-Rome-UK-USA etc.) will spread its tentacles over the entire world. That’s exactly what Trump is doing through MAGA (gobbling up world resources) and the “Board of Peace”.
The Ox and the Donkey
Likewise Torah tradition holds that at the “End of Days” the Ox (Edom) and the Donkey (Ishmael) will join together (Genesis 32:6, Deuteronomy 22:10, Daniel 2:43, Midrash and Zohar). While interpretations are many, we are seeing the literal fulfillment of the prophecy in the increasing interconnection between Islam and the West. Europe and America have been flooded with Moslem immigrants who are in practice unlikely ever to be expelled, with unforeseeable consequences. The west is heavily dependent on Arab oil and investment, but has apparently had little influence on most ordinary Arabs, who still seem to have a seventh century Arab desert-dwellers’ mentality.
With ever-increasing industrial development, the dependency of Britain and other advanced countries upon Arab oil which began well over a century ago is now as great as ever. This has enriched some Arab countries to a degree that their desert-nomad forebears not long ago could never have imagined. However in countries like Qatar the primitive Islamic jihadi mentality has survived unchanged except with ever greater sophistication, as in the case of the billions they spend on sponsoring western university departments and propaganda stations like Al Jazeera, financing Islamic jihadi terror whether Hamas or by any other name, and unending defamation of Israel.
This discussion is already too lengthy to continue at this time, but the main issue that needs to be addressed is the ultimate downfall of the Ishmael religious cult (for that is all that it can be called, a cult), that spreads terror, havoc, destruction and decay wherever it takes root.
More next time G-d willing.
