Reflections on Yom Kippur

As I fast and reflect on Yom Kippur, couple of thoughts came to my mind I would like to share.

I did not vote for Obama in the last elections – so at least I do not have to worry about this sin – but those who did, should ask for double forgiveness.

If anyone had doubts that we elected an incompetent leftist ideolog for President, should have no doubt any more.  Putin Checkmated Obama and Kerry over Syria, U.S. was humiliated and embarrassed thanks to those two nincompoops.  I guess our community organizer learned that peddling dirty politics in Chicago and playing the race card does not make him qualified to play on the world stage with ex-KGB agents.  The only sad thing is that there are still many Americans who just do not pay attention enough, naïve enough, or just stupid enough to believe that Obama did well.

It has been 40 years since Yom Kippur war and 20 years since the signing of the Oslo Accords that brought the Palestinian terror organization into Israel.  The political and military leaders who botched the Yom Kippur war and betrayed their people were rightfully held responsible by the Agranat Commission in Israel, and were thrown out of office.  The leaders who were responsible for the failed Oslo Accords – those leaders who equally betrayed their people with poor judgment and misinformation were not held responsible – no commission has ever been formed.  The main gang leader of the Oslo Accords – Shimon Peres – is now holding the honorary post of President of Israel.   This reminds me of the old adage that God works in mysterious ways – one more thing to ponder during Yom Kippur.
