Golan Heights

Golan Height s is actually Bashan of the bible. There are around 52 passages which mention Bashan.

Amos 4:1

Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that [are] in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.

Joshua 21:27

And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the [other] half tribe of Manasseh [they gave] Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, [to be] a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beeshterah with her suburbs; two cities.

Chronicles-1 6:71

Unto the sons of Gershom [were given] out of the family of the half tribe of Manasseh, Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, and Ashtaroth with her suburbs:

In Bashan is Nimrod's temple.

Nimrod the mighty hunter was one of the sons of Kush. Kush was the son of Ham, the lowest and least important of Noah's three sons. Nimrod came from a line which was cursed by Noah: "Cursed be Canaan, a slave of slaves shall he be unto his brothers."

By birth, Nimrod had no right to be a king or ruler. But he was a mighty strong man, and sly and tricky, and a great hunter and trapper of men and animals. His followers grew in number, and soon

Nimrod became the mighty king of Babylon,

and his empire extended over other great cities.

Nimrod must have been an iron-fisted ruler from all appearances. We can see an ever expanding kingdom and one that dominated for years. The remnant of Nimrod’s kingdom was Babel and it began to grow and grow as all the people were of one language and of one mind, but not to do good so “the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them” (Gen 11:6). God confused their languages and dispersed them among the earth. He had to because God saw that “nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them” and that would most certainly have included evil.

Nimrod as Baal was also known. It is important that you know that Nimrod incorporated into his worship system the grisly practice of human sacrifice and cannibalism. Our authority Hislop says, “the priests of Nimrod or Baal were necessarily required to eat of the human sacrifices; and thus it has come to pass that ‘Cahna-Bal’ (cahna meaning priest & Bal referring to Baal) is the established word (cannibal) in our own tongue for a devourer of human flesh.”

ICE Bust Discovers Over 50 Illegal Aliens in Overcrowded ‘Stash House’

A Mexican man has been arrested on alien smuggling charges after 54 illegal border-crossers were discovered in an overcrowded stash house in south El Paso, Texas, on March 26.

Special agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) made the discovery while executing a search warrant on the duplex in the 100 block of Seville Drive. The man, who has not be identified, currently remains in custody, according to a news release.

According to authorities, the property was used to harbor illegal aliens who were smuggled into the United States.

“The overcrowded conditions of this stash house in a residential neighborhood show the lack of respect human smugglers have for people who put their lives in smugglers’ hands,” said Jack P. Staton, special agent in charge of HSI El Paso.

“HSI continues to target transnational criminal organizations that rake in huge profits by illegally smuggling people with clear disregard for their safety and welfare,” he added.

ICE agents found 45 adult males, five adult females, two accompanied teenagers, and two unaccompanied teenagers. According to the federal agency, they had traveled from five different countries including Belize, Brazil, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico.

ICE officials said the illegal aliens had been kept in the stash house for more than a week and several of the individuals needed medical attention for injuries sustained while traveling to the United States.

Supreme Court Finds Investment Banker Following Orders Culpable

WASHINGTON—An investment banker who sent deceptive emails to prospective clean-energy investors greatly overstating a company’s financial health can’t escape responsibility for securities fraud because he was only following his supervisor’s directions, the Supreme Court ruled March 27.

Justice Stephen Breyer wrote the 6-to-2 majority opinion in Lorenzo v. SEC, rejecting the reasoning employed by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, when he was a member of the lower court panel that previously heard the case.

“By sending emails he understood to contain material untruths, [the petitioner] ‘employ[ed]’ a ‘device,’ ‘scheme,’ and ‘artifice to defraud’” within the meaning of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, and “engage[d] in a[n] act, practice, or course of business” that “operate[d] … as a fraud or deceit.”

The court rejected Lorenzo’s argument that as the mere “disseminator” of false information he had “not primarily violated” the rules.

“That is not what Congress intended. Rather, Congress intended to root out all manner of fraud in the securities industry. And it gave to the Commission the tools to accomplish the job.”

The case arose out of the business of Waste2Energy Holdings Inc. of Neptune Beach, Florida, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2013.

In 2009, investment banker Francis V. Lorenzo of Staten Island, New York-based Charles Vista LLC emailed would-be investors in an effort to sell $15 million in debentures secured only by Waste2Energy’s earning capacity.

The emails presented Waste2Energy as having $10 million in assets and more than $40 million in purchase orders, but when the emails were sent, the company acknowledged an audit had found its assets weren’t even worth $400,000.

Lorenzo’s boss and firm settled with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) but Lorenzo refused and an administrative law judge found he had broken the law by sending the emails, even though he hadn’t drafted them. The SEC banished Lorenzo from the securities industry for life and fined him $15,000.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected Lorenzo’s appeal in 2017.

Liberty University got a $900,000 contract to sell jet fuel to the Pentagon

The contract was signed in 2017, days before Trump gave a commencement address at the school

The federal government has signed a contract to purchase nearly $900,000 in jet fuel from Liberty University, an evangelical school located in Lynchburg, Virginia, and run by one of the president's most vocal supporters.

What are the details?

The contract, which was first reported by the Daily Beast's Lachlan Markay, is worth $889,087. It was signed on May 9, 2017. Four days later, Trump would give the commencement address at Liberty. The contract goes through March 30, 2021.

The Department of Defense contract is with Freedom Aviation, a company owned by the school, in return for "Liquid Propellants and Fuels, Petroleum Base." The company's website does advertise fuel sales.

The school's president, Jerry Falwell Jr., has been an ardent supporter of President Donald Trump. On Jan. 1, he told the Washington Post that he "can't imagine [Trump] doing anything that's not good for the country. Trump spoke at the school as part of his presidential campaign on Jan. 18, 2016.

According to the Daily Beast, the DOD's Defense Logistics Agency hired Freedom Aviation after it "submitted the only offer" to refuel DOD planes at Lynchburg's airport. A spokesman for the agency told the Daily Beast that the fuel costs offered by Freedom Aviation were "determined fair and reasonable in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and was in line with prices at other airports in the region."

The spokesman also said that the agency had granted contracts to Freedom Aviation as far back as the 1990s, although the company was then going by the name Aviation Resources.

What else?

In addition to working with Liberty's flight school, Freedom Aviation also charters private flights.The Trump campaign utilized Freedom Aviation for some of its travel, and paid the company $19,000 early in 2016 shortly after Falwell gave his endorsement.

TheBlaze has reached out to Liberty University for comment.

The Case Against AIPAC

This week AIPAC held its annual policy conference in the capital, with speakers including Vice President Mike Pence, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. But the biggest name at this year’s event wasn’t even in the room. Speaker after speaker took turns taking veiled (and not so veiled) jabs at freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar for comments she made on Twitter in February about the nature of AIPAC’s influence in Washington. Chuck Schumer equated Omar’s critique of AIPAC with Donald Trump’s praising of neo-nazis in Charlottesville. Others including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell attacked Omar for her claim at a public event in D.C. last month that AIPAC promotes “allegiance to a foreign country.” Inconveniently for AIPAC, one of their biggest donors, Adam Milstein, had recently accused Rep. Omar and her fellow Muslim American lawmaker Rep. Rashida Tlaib of being representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood, saying that their values “clash with American values.” Yousef Munayyer of the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights and Debra Shushan of Americans for Peace Now join Mehdi Hasan to discuss AIPAC’s obsession with Rep. Omar and its Islamophobia problem.

Debra Shushan: Even though Ilhan Omar was not there, she was absolutely omnipresent at the AIPAC Conference.

Yousef Munayyer: Islamophobia has become a major part of pro-Israel advocacy in the United States over the last 30 years.

[Musical Interlude]

Mehdi Hasan: I’m Mehdi Hasan. Welcome to Deconstructed, from The Intercept studios in Washington, D.C.

This week AIPAC came to town. Yep, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which, I want to be very careful here, is a truly disgraceful organization. I’m not talking here about AIPAC’s clear opposition to any kind of viable peace process or two-state solution in the Middle East. I’m not talking about its de facto support for illegal Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, or its opposition to the Iran Nuclear Deal, or even its hosting of right-wing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, just weeks after he did a deal involving the far-right Jewish Power Party, which AIPAC itself has called a “racist and reprehensible party.” Put all that to one side for a moment. No, I’m talking about AIPAC’s obsession—yes, obsession—with Representative Ilhan Omar and its very explicit role in mainstreaming Islamophobia in the United States.

Let’s deal with Omar first. The annual AIPAC Policy Conference, attended by the great and the good of Washington D.C., and beyond —attended by top Democrats and Republicans alike — took place this week here in the capital. But the focus of the AIPAC conference, you could say, was less on Israel and more on Ilhan Omar, who of course criticized AIPAC’s financial influence on U.S. politics last month and had to apologize after being accused of anti-Semitism. In speech after speech, Omar was denounced, mocked, smeared, either explicitly or implicitly.

Israelis did it. Here’s Prime Minister Netanyahu:
