In days gone by when Jews were the people of an Almighty in whom they
truly believed; in years long since gone when Jews were tied to their
Father in Heaven with an awe and love and spiritual intoxication that
made Him a permanent part of every thought and deed and sinew, they
understood and knew that all that occurs on earth is because of Him and
tied to the deeds of Israel. That reward and punishment are not things
for esoteric afternoons when a lesson in Ethics of the Fathers is given
to an entertained Sabbath audience or for the 15 minutes set aside in
the yeshiva for mediation in a Mussar Sefer, to be admired and mused
over in theory, distinct theory.

Iraq is not a political issue; it is a religious one. The pitiful,
finite, temporary players on the stage of history, Saddam and Bush and
Kuwait and Hussein, are mere instruments of the Almighty in His move to
bring to an end a world that moves inexorably into the final part of
this era of "ikvot d'mshicha" and "atchalta d'geula", the footsteps of the Messiah
and the beginning of the redemption. One does not look to the New York
Times or Time Magazine or ABC to understand what will be in the world,
in America, in the Middle East, in Israel. One goes to the source of
all that was, is and will be - Torah Judaism. But the authentic kind.
And from the lips of those who have escaped the terrible grip of an
exile that has so corrupted and perverted us with its majority
gentilized influence.

For all practical and pragmatic Jews who look at world events through
the spectacles of geo-political and socio-economic theory, let it be
understood that - from that point of view - no matter what will be the
result of the American-Iraqi confrontation, Israel loses. You think
not? Consider.
Should the Americans fail to go all the way and crush Iraq, Saddam will
emerge as a victor and Arab hero not known since the days of Saladin.
Should the Americans not have the persistence and discipline to go all
the way - and that is a distinct possibility given the condition of the
American body politic and inability to take serious losses - then
Saddam will emerge as the hero of the Arab masses from Morocco to the
Gulf, a tiger whose appetite will be inflamed by his victory. Time is
and will be even more on his side, as the Iraqi march to nuclear and
ever-more deadly chemical and biological weapons goes forward. For that
is the real threat of Iraq. Not the takeover of Kuwait oil or even of
Saudi fields, but the inevitable (should he not be crushed) acquisition
of weapons of total destruction. Stopping him from invading Saudi or
Jordan or the Emirates is totally irrelevant to this, the real threat.
And once having it, little will prevent him from giving a "baby"
nuclear weapon or two to the terrorists of the PLO.

And for the Jews of the exile, the ones who sincerely worry for us in
Israel: That there is a crisis in the Middle East is undeniable. And
that an Israel that does not go back to G-d faces terrible times is of
course true. But the Jews of Israel can never be exiled again. There
can be no destruction of the Jewish state; at worst - great suffering
that can be stopped by a return to G-d and having the kind of faith in
Him that leads Jews to do all the things that will anger the world:
annex the territories, drive out the Arabs, strike at Iraq without
asking American permission and without bowing to her wishes, take over
the Temple Mount.
