John Howard: Champion for Israel – Article by Isi Leibler

RE Multi-culturalism
“Howard was concerned that multi-culturalism would encourage minorities to create self-contained enclaves and discourage integration.  Well before Islamic extremism raised its ugly head, he warned that anti-democratic elements would exploit multi-culturalism in order to undermine the open society”.

Re Israel
“Howard’s friendship towards Jews can be traced back to his days as a young lawyer in a legal firm with Jewish principals.  He first visited Israel in 1962 and since then has remained a champion of the Jewish State.  His feelings are best reflected in his own words: ‘The personal affection I have for the State of Israel, the personal regard I have for the Jewish peoeple of the world, will never be diminished.  It is something I hold dearly, something I value as part of my being and as part of what I have tried to do with my life.'”

(After meeting with Arafat, Howard told Leibler): “I want you to know that should Arafat ever renege on the commitments to peace he conveyed today, I give you a solemn undertaking that if I am still prime minister, the Australian Jewish community and the people of Israel will never have reason to feel that I forsook them.”  Howard kept his word.  In subsequent years Australia walked a lonely path, courageously supporting Israel…He never deviated from his commitment.

Danny NalliahExperience / Relationship or Academic? 

After much thought and prayer I have decided to release this article in response to the many emails I received after the prophecy released regarding the next federal election. Most of the emails we received were very positive and thanking God for direction. We also were glad to receive a few extremely negative emails from Christians who were absolutely furious with what I have declared regarding the election. Thank God we are in Australia, we are a democracy, and you certainly have the right to express yourself. And I enjoy reading your comments… (more…)
