From the King of Arad to Arafat ימח שמו וזכרו

During the final year of the Bnei Yisrael wandering the wilderness, near the holy land, the Melekh (King) of Arad and his army of “Canaanim” attacked the Bnei Yisrael. Our Sages of blessed memory said that these Canaanim were actually Amalekim. The Nation of Amalek wanted to confuse us so that we wouldn’t pray to destroy them (Amalek). Thus, they disguised themselves as the people native to the holy land. Thousands of years later, the Amalekim tried this again. They tried to fool the world into making them believe that they were the spiritual inheritors of the land when really it was surrendered to the Jews when the British lost the war of independence.

The British and French took down the Ottoman Empire which conquered the land from the previous Islamic-majority country that ruled over the holy land. The terrorists want to identify as nativists when their entire ideology is based on an international plot of nations who wish to rid Yisrael from the world. Nothing has changed since the Torah was given. These evil nations are jealous that we received the Torah since it means that they weren’t worthy of receiving it, and Amalek will not stop at nothing in his quest to attempt to murder Yisrael but each time, in each generation, Amalek fails to do this because the Yad Hashem (Hand of G-d) saves us from annihilation.

.אֵ֥ין כָּל־חָדָ֖שׁ תַּ֥חַת הַשָּֽׁמֶשׁ – There is nothing new under the sun (Qohelet 1:9). The enemies of Hashem and Yisrael are still scheming just like they had in previous generations. The wicked Arafat ימח שמו וזכרו is in the same league of evil as his ancient predecessors from ages ago such as the Melekh of Arad. And now, we have disgusting Amalekim such as a different ימח שמו וזכרו and his followers. May Hashem wipe them out speedily in our days. May Hashem redeem us, and may Hashem blot out their names forever!
