“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” - William S Burroughs

#92. To: The_Rock, watchman (#79)

"watchman" posted what he said was the book of Revelation and added the word "edom" to it to try and fool people of what it said.

The_Rock, could you please pinpoint where watchman said that?

watchman, I think I have a very definitive piece on Edom. Do you know what I am talking about and have you shared it? I have had it for a couple of years, and finally started reading it some months back. I did not finish it, but I think I read at least 70 pages, and admired the way it put so many pieces I knew about together in such a coherent manner. In one little blurb, it opened my eyes to the Ashkenazi link to the Edomites (a good tribe of Dan link I HAD and lost, but do have some vague links, including the NAME links in Ukraine, the old seat of the Khazars/Ashkenazis). I may have seen that little tidbit before (and I just saw it recently in another article from another website), but it hit me between the eyes when I saw it at that online book about Edom.

It also explains why groups like the ADL promote hatred and laws against whites and Christians...two quotes I was well aware of are included. It asks the question, Wouldn't you promote laws against "anti-semitism" if (you believed) your race was going to be exterminated in the end according to the Bible? Shoot, it made me feel sorry for them. Yes, God has terrible things to say about Edom, in one place saying He would destroy them all, but, but, BUT, in another, saying there would be a remnant:

King James Bible

Amos 9:12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this.

Context

The Restoration of Israel

Amos 9:11“In that day I will restore the fallen tent of David. I will repair its gaps, restore its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old, 12that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations that bear My name,” declares the LORD, who will do this. 13“Behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when the plowman will overtake the reaper and the treader of grapes, the sower of seed. The mountains will drip with sweet wine, with which all the hills will flow.…
Berean Standard Bible

"...Berean Study Bible

that they may possess

The phrase "that they may possess" in Amos 9:12 speaks to the divine intention and promise of inheritance. The Hebrew root word here is "yarash," which means to inherit, possess, or take possession. This concept of possession is deeply rooted in the covenantal promises God made to Israel, where land and blessing were central themes. Historically, the idea of possession was not merely about ownership but about stewardship under God's sovereignty. It reflects a future hope where God's people will reclaim what was lost or promised, emphasizing God's faithfulness to His covenant.

the remnant of Edom

"Edom" refers to the descendants of Esau, Jacob's brother, and historically, Edom was often in conflict with Israel. The mention of "the remnant of Edom" signifies a shift from enmity to inclusion. The Hebrew word for remnant, "she'erit," implies a surviving group that remains after judgment or calamity. This phrase prophetically points to a time when even those traditionally seen as enemies will be part of God's redemptive plan. It underscores the expansive nature of God's kingdom, where former adversaries are brought into the fold, highlighting the transformative power of God's grace.

and all the nations

The inclusion of "all the nations" broadens the scope of God's promise beyond Israel and Edom to encompass the entire world. The Hebrew term "goyim" is used here, which typically refers to non-Israelite peoples or Gentiles. This phrase anticipates the New Testament revelation of the Gospel reaching all nations, as seen in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19). It reflects God's universal plan for salvation and the breaking down of ethnic and cultural barriers, emphasizing the inclusivity of God's love and the fulfillment of His promise to Abraham that all nations would be blessed through his seed (Genesis 12:3). [[[GOOD POINT!!!!!!! - ABRAHAM'S SEED BEING CHRIST!!!! ISAIAH 53:10/GALATIANS 3:16...29]]]

called by My name

The phrase "called by My name" indicates a special relationship and identity bestowed by God. In Hebrew, the word "qara" means to call, proclaim, or name. Being called by God's name signifies ownership, protection, and a covenantal relationship. It implies that those who were once far off are now identified with God Himself, bearing His name and reflecting His character. This is a profound statement of belonging and transformation, where God's people are marked by His name, signifying their inclusion in His family and His divine purpose. [[[I will have more to say about this]]]

declares the LORD

The phrase "declares the LORD" is a powerful affirmation of divine authority and certainty. The Hebrew word "ne'um" is often used in prophetic literature to introduce a solemn pronouncement from God. It underscores the reliability and unchangeable nature of God's word. When the LORD declares something, it is as good as done, for His word does not return void (Isaiah 55:11). This phrase assures the reader of the certainty of God's promises and His sovereign control over history, providing comfort and hope to those who trust in Him.

who will do this

The concluding phrase "who will do this" emphasizes God's active role in bringing His promises to fruition. The Hebrew verb "asah" means to do, make, or accomplish. It highlights God's omnipotence and His commitment to fulfill His word. This assurance that God Himself will accomplish what He has declared is a source of hope and encouragement. It reminds believers that God's plans are not dependent on human effort but on His divine power and faithfulness, reinforcing the trustworthiness of His promises and the certainty of His redemptive plan.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 12. - That they (the true children of Israel) [[[CHRISTians - SEE MY PREVIOUS POST ON JESUS AS TRUE ISRAEL]]] may possess the remnant of Edom; i.e. those who were nearest in blood, and yet most hostile of all men. David had subdued the Edomites (2 Samuel 8:14; 1 Kings 11:16), and Amaziah had inflicted a great slaughter upon them (2 Kings 14:7); but later they recovered their independence (2 Kings 16:6, where "Edomites" should be read for "Syrians;" 2 Chronicles 28:17), and were actively hostile against the Jews. It was on this account that they were emphatically denounced by Obadiah. "The remnant" is mentioned because, according to the threat in Amos 1:11, 12, they would be punished so that only a few would escape. The Septuagint gives ,ὍÀÉ ἐº¶·ÄήÃÉù½ ¿ἱ º±Äά»¿¹À¿¹ Äὼ½ ἀ½¸ÁώÀɽ, [Äὸ½ ºύÁ¹¿½, Alexandrian], "That the remnant of men may earnestly seek the Lord," regarding Edom as a representative of aliens from God, and altering the text to make the sense more generally intelligible, This version, which reads "Adam," men, instead of "Edom," is endorsed by St. James. Which are called by my Name; "over whom my Name hath been called" (Septuagint). This is closer to the Hebrew; but the meaning is much the same, viz. all those who are dedicated to God and belong to him being by faith incorporated into the true Israel. (For the phrase, comp. 2 Samuel 12:28; Isaiah 4:1; and to illustrate the idea, refer to Deuteronomy 28:10; Isaiah 44:5; Psalm 87:5, 6.) The Messianic kingdom shall be established in order that salvation may be extended to all hastens who embrace it. Saith the Lord; is the saying of Jehovah. This is added to show the immutability of the promise. The covenant God himself hath predicted it.

Amos 9:12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I need to process this a little.

The_Rock, could you please pinpoint where watchman said that?

watchman, I think I have a very definitive piece on Edom.

Rocky hates when I identify the Jews as Edomites. His fantasy world revolves around the Jews being descendants of Jacob.

Here are the true Israelites.

4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥.

5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.

6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.

7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.

8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

Revelation 7:4-8

I'm not sure how this works. Evidently, God knows precisely who the true descendants of Jacob are and where they are located...hidden from our view at the moment.

This list in Rev.7 has nothing whatsoever to do with the squatters over in the Holy Land who are killing and stealing falsely in the Name of God.

Don't worry too much, the CIA, NSA and the joint in Idaho or wherever the rest of them are, are watching you. LOL!

Howland Island

They lumped everything together. My favorite was the Palmyra Atoll. I wanted to live there.

Niue (NZ) kicked me out thanks to Prez Homo. I had property there and employees. The north end.

Howland Island was supposed be Amelia Earhart's airstrip before home on her around the world flight. The US Navy made her an airstrip on Howland and were making smoke for her before she was lost.

Niue is a little tiny island north of NZ. I bought the bike, car rental shop on the north end of the island after a typhoon. I had a couple of the indigenous running the thing until Prez Pedo had it taken away from me and gave it to the government of NZ.

Sometime part of the job is knowing when to bow out. I was never there. I wanted to retire there.

I guess I'm stuck here with Dr. Kimmy.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/healing-trauma-s- wounds/201509/why-clients-smile-when-talking-about-trauma-part-1

Why Clients Smile When Talking About Trauma — Part 1 What are the reasons for this confusing phenomenon?

This week in my private practice several different clients bravely shared memories of childhood abuse as well as anecdotes about the recent ways in which they felt slighted or hurt. As they recounted their experiences, which to any observer would be described as painful, humiliating, and invalidating, it was striking to notice how their stories were accompanied by smiles and laughter.

It was even more powerful to realize that this total disconnect between narratives and emotions went completely unnoticed and unacknowledged by the clients. In fact, when I pointed it out and gently invited them to be curious about this disparity, they had no conscious awareness of smiling or laughing. They also said they felt clueless about why they had paired trauma material with emotions that are typically associated with happiness and lightheartedness.

The reality is this is not an uncommon phenomenon. Smiling or laughing while disclosing painful experiences can serve several different functions. It’s important to process the deeper intention and the unspoken communication that often lurks underneath when appropriate affect doesn’t match the content. Here are some possible reasons to explore in therapy:

Smiling when discussing trauma is a way to minimize the traumatic experience. It communicates the notion that what happened “wasn’t so bad.” This is a common strategy that trauma survivors use in an attempt to maintain a connection to caretakers who were their perpetrators. If they can downplay the severity of what was done to them, they can stay in a relationship with people who are important to them despite the fact that they were betrayed or violated by them.

Laughter can be a defense that protects the trauma survivor from feeling the depth of their actual pain. Many survivors believe that if they don't laugh about their experiences they will connect with intense feelings of rage, despair, disappointment, or sadness. The deeper fear is that that they will be flooded and overwhelmed if those emotions are identified and fully felt. Feeling deeply is often associated with a loss of control. Laughter keeps the pain at arm’s length.

Smiling or laughing when disclosing trauma can be an indicator of embarrassment or shame. It takes so much courage to talk openly about experiences that are humiliating and invalidating. Some trauma survivors hold deeply entrenched feelings of self-blame and other distorted and inaccurate thoughts about the role they believe they played in their abuse. Laughter is a way to communicate that embarrassment and can also serve as a distraction to short-circuit further exploration of their trauma experiences.

Smiling or laughing when disclosing trauma can be information about the survivor’s family of origin experiences. Often the inability to access or express specific emotions in adulthood is the inevitable byproduct of not having those emotions modeled and normalized in childhood. When painful experiences are trivialized within a family or there’s an unspoken rule that certain feelings are unacceptable to express, children lose the ability to gain mastery over the full and appropriate expression of those emotions. It’s also information about the strong possibility that it was physically or emotionally unsafe to express anger or sadness. Many clients assume that it will be equally unsafe in the therapist’s office.

It is important to acknowledge that many trauma survivors have a genuinely great sense of humor, which is both miraculous and at times, life saving. And it’s equally important to be able to communicate one’s pain with emotions that are in sync with the experience so that pain can be witnessed and comforted, and authentic processing and healing take place.

In my next blog post, we will examine four additional reasons there is a disconnect between words and feelings in the therapy room. To read Part 2, click here.

All of that is on the internet. Maybe hard to find but it is out there. The video I found wasn't the actual one I was looking for because I couldn't find it quickly. I'm sure it is out there somewhere though.

It doesn't make your case, not even close.

It's all fake!

Show me the decap babies video with this girl reporter.

I saw the video in real time...why is it deleted from the internet?

I don't know that it is deleted. You just made that claim. Just like your claim that because someone smiled they are crisis actors.

If you could search better you could find it.

Just because they didn't show the video of the babies doesn't mean it didn't happen. Maybe they don't want ghouls in Hamas jacking off to the pics and bragging. Lots of graphic pictures never see the light of day.

There was a time when the Aztecs would remove their still beating hearts with obsidian, that seemed to keep them in check.

Funny, that was my 2022 Christmas Card theme.

“I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.” - William S Burroughs

Do you want me to teach you how to search. The first video the sound was missing. This one the sound isn't missing. So admit you don't know what you are talking about when you say videos are deleted. It is right here.

I don't know why that link didn't work. Sometimes the web owner doesn't like outside stuff linking in. 120 works just fine.

Bullshit.

Not something as historical and important as 40 beheaded babies.

That get documented to infinity...and beyond.

Stop. Just stop your insanity.

Why do you demean yourself?
