Shomrei Emunim Rebbe: We're Without a Doubt Standing Before a World War

Kikar has an article which quotes the Morasha Magazine (Hebrew) where the Shomrei Emunim Rebbe was interviewed and had some interesting things to say:
  • We're without a doubt standing before a world war - this is 100% definite.
  • Malachi, the last of the prophets, prophecied that there will be an awesome war like one that had never existed before - before the coming of Mashiah.
  • We don't know when this will occur - even a second before it does.  It could be that an Arab will go insane and will fly his plane into the Vatican and destroy it, which will drag the world to Tohu Vavohu.
  • The war could be a matter of seconds long, as nuclear blasts can do awesome damage
  • The Abravanel wrote 600 years ago how the world will be destroyed in a matter of seconds while knowing nothing about nuclear bombs.  The Abravanel also said that the war would be a religious one - 50 years ago, the nations didn't have this concept of fighting based on religion - neither the Christians nor the Muslims, but now, everyone is a "frummer".
  • There won't be even 1 second of warning when this will occur.  Therefore, we must prepare בכל נפשנו ומאדנו [which possibly means "with all our souls and money"].
  • All Jews outside of Israel should come to live in Israel.  Even those who cannot do so should purchase an apartment so they'll have a place to which to escape when the time comes.
  • The closer the Palestinians declare their state, this is a sign that they will be pushed out.  This is why Yishmael is turning over the world - because it still wants to stay in the land.  Very soon, Hashem will remove this Ru'ah Tum'ah from the land, and all the impure chaff and straw which is delaying the Redemption will be as chaff before the wind and as the flame that setteth the mountains ablaze
  • Already 120 years ago and especially in the past 16 years, our leaders wanted to give land away and the Arabs refuse to take it.  Do you have an explanation?  We see how Hashem is running the world.  We have a Defense Minister who is much more successful than the one who calls himself the defense minister.  He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision.  HKB"H took the world by the hand and we need not worry.
  • All the revolutions started in 5760 and only increased from there.  We need nothing more than the Taliban capturing Pakistan's nuclear arsenal and then it will all be over.  We're talking about brutal animals that can threaten the entire world.  And it will happen.  Then the following verse will be fulfilled: Thus will I magnify Myself, and sanctify Myself, and I will make Myself known in the eyes of many nations.
  • From the year 5760, the world was not quiet - tsunami, earthquakes, Japan.  HKB"H is taking care of them and doesn't give them rest.  We can feel that these things are a preparation for something big that is coming.  The Hesed LeAvraham said that in the year 5760, the ocean will rise and flood the world.  In addition, both the Christians and the Muslims say that the end is nigh because their Mazal sees and feels this.  This in itself isn't one of the signs of Redemption, but one who contemplates the words of Haza"l and other holy books can see out in the open that our day is having a wonderful revelation.
  • The revolutions aren't solely in the Arab world, but in the entire world.  Even the economic downfall in the U.S. is something very important.  The whole world doesn't think about this, but I think about their shameful behavior at all times, but especially during the Holocaust where they were partners in killing Jews...
  • The beginning of Yishmael's downfall was in Bavel - today's Iraq.  About 150,000 from Bavel already died.  We have already been saying for over 2000 years, 'בת בבל השדודה אשרי שישלם לך את גמולך שגמלת לנו אשרי שיאחז וניפץ את עולליך על הסלע' and Baruch Hashem, we merited to see this now.  Is this a coincidence?  Are the eyes blind?
The Rebbe has some other interesting things to say about the presidents of both the United States and Israel.

Update: Ladaat has an article too and YWN has its own translation into English, where you can see more details that I may have missed.

No Jews that I know of in diaspora have enough money to afford the tickers to Israel let alone buy property there.... The ones that do can't even sell their homes to be able to finance such a move... How can the Rabbi suggest that, just go, make Aliya to Israel .... Even if you have a bard time already where you live and oh... Buy an apartment there . No disrespect I know he to warn us but do people in Israel really think that all of us here are rich? And just plain spoil people ? We are even being accused lately of having no Emuna as well if we don't live diaspora..

This is far from truth based on today's realities. Such prediction may look promising during the "dark ages" of crusade, inquisition e.t.c but not today. Is not even close to being true for WW2 !!

I don't know of any Christian denomination today that will take up arms to fight the children of Jacob in the name of Christianity.

Neither is there any nation on earth today that will go to war in the name of Christianity. It is even nearly impossible to define any nation as Christian nation in the same way some countries define themselves as Islamic. It is these islamic countries (and moslems) NOT Christians that look promising to fulfilling the prediction

Even a jihadist flying a plane in to Vatican will not lead to moslem vs Christian religious war -not even Catholics vs moslems !! It may lead to UN resolutions authorizing use of force in which some muslim countries will participate !!

The IRREFUTABLE fact is NO ONE will ever know the date, the specific players, the exact play until the "pre Geulah" events actually unfold -the ONE (Hashem) who directs everything made sure of that !!

GUESSES are not bad as long as everyone (including the author) recognise and acknowledge them as GUESSES.

Yes I love the line about everyone buying an apartment....
yes I think Israelis do think we're all rich in the diaspora. They just don't get it.

the rebbe means well. its his duty to tell what is in his heart or what he feels he has been inspired to say. if you dont have the money to do aliyah, tell Hashem. does He not listen every second to the jewish people's prayers and the world's? keep yearning to go back, and He will do the rest. at His time.
when george bush jr went for war he did call it the crusades and his office quickly cut in and tried to change it. if i am not mistaken he called it the crusades , twice.
nad you will be surprised how many xtians may want to go for war including the vatican. behind the scenes inspite of its scandals the vatican wiels alot of power in some nations. and is also behind the idea of dividing Jerusalem or atleast being given some power of it. there are overt wars and covert wars and spiritual wars, the latter being using the typical missionary means to convert jews to xtianity. there are all kinds of wars taking place against israel. even right at the UN. wake up, and see what is happening.
the rebbe is calling all jews to return. thats his duty. the rebbe does not know our individual bank accounts. Hashem does. so place your request to Hashem. it is ONLY HE WHO proivdes.
to yeranen yaacov.
can you please translate what he wrote about the two presidents.

Amazing !
Despite years of failures and tons of historical data to learn from some are still trying to help Hashem fulfill His prophecies by FORCE FITTING, RETRO FITTING current events and bending the truth !

Bush was suppose to be GOG until he left office. Some were even predicting there'd be no election in '08 because Bush is yet to fulfill his GOG role !! Recently I read on another blog why Bush failed to be GOG !! The Obama myths and prognostications is like a rash all over the blogosphere !!

The fear (by some) of the so called "overt/covert" spiritual war of typical missionaries trying to convert Jews has become spooky and superstitious -bordering on paranoia !

Do the missionaries possess some kind of voodoo power to FORCE Jews to convert ??

Are Jews that vulnerable to conversion from Judaism ??

For some this spiritual war myth has translated in to VILE HATRED of Christians/missionaries. Hopefully it will never degenerate to taking up arms to protect Judaism.

i was a xtian for 40 years.not one year, not two years, but 40 whole years. and i know how much of their lies, false stories was indoctrinated into me, us. my family are still orthodox xtians. i left mainly somehow Hashem had compassion and brought me out, by that one niggling doubt about jc's birth. that G-d had nothing better to do but go and impregnate a woman and produce an illegitimate son, when he himself has given strict laws about illegitimacy. it was this doubt that finally brought me out of xtianity.
NO one is trying to fit events and force our ideas to make it look like Hashem's Plans. Hashem himself has told what is to happen in the last days. From moses, thro isaiah, ezekiel and others and the great sages were blessed by prophet elijah and others to write out facts from fiction, which would see us thro these last days.
Just as Hashem changed his mind about destroying niniveh, so He can also change His mind out of compassion on other punishments, but NOT on the blessigs. every blessing will take place.
Shomrei Emunim Rebbe wrote as explained clearly, very CLEARLY by yeranen yaacov, that till the last second NO one knows when this war will occur. SO no one is misleading anyone. the rabbis and sages are looking at it from all the explanations and giving us information.
There are many good xtians in this world. but most of the churches have their own agenda. that cannot be denied. go read the Hollow Inheritance. which brought many xtians in US out of xtianity to the noahide law.
last year purim missionaries waited at the road blocks dressed in a very conservative manner like orth jews and handed out purim food and phamflets. some of the soldiers thought it was jewish writings and only about half way the word jesus came out. if this is not called a spiritual covert war to convert jews, than i dont know what else does.
in the internet itself there are so many xtian sites, using hebrew names and when one goes in only to find out about their dead and born again messiah. is not this an underhand thing to do. do you see jews, or hindus or buddhists tryin g to way lay others to their faith????\the missionaries do not have vodoo power to convert xtians. what they have is money. loads of it , its orgins are ofcourse questionable. they look out for non xtians or jews from broken homes, not orthrodox homes, and they work on them. they prey on the weak like amalek did .
history proves that it was the xtians who took arms against other faiths including protestants and such breakaways. and another faith. there has been some faults on the jewish people but nothing, absolutely nothing as glaring as what the roman catholic church did, does, or the crusades french revolution spanish intifada and a whole list of them.
as recently as less than 60 to 70 years back read what the british did in india and their colonies, in the name of religon. esau always fought a physical war. but the jews will always win spiritually.

"Even those who cannot do {=meaning move right now} so should purchase an apartment so they'll have a place to which to escape when the time comes."

Unfortunately, I don't have the money at this time to buy an apartment. Should I forgo school tuition, or food, for this? Even if I do, that won't bring me anywhere close to the money to buy an apartment. Should I go into debt for this? Would the Shomer Emunim Rebbe help me out in this, by serving as my guarantor?

Do you think I can stay with you for a while in Eretz Yisrael, in the apartment you are purchasing?

;)

"The Abravanel also said that the war would be a religious one - 50 years ago, the nations didn't have this concept of fighting based on religion - neither the Christians nor the Muslims, but now, everyone is a "frummer"."
In the Abarbanel's time, it made sense, since the Crusades were going on. It now makes sense once again. Though I would not say that until today, no conflict in modern times was not religiously motivated.

Hoshana Rabba?

Wasn't there something said/written about the end of Sukkot?

Is the Shomrei Emunim Rebbe coming to Eretz Yisrael?

There's often something said about the end of Sukkot/Hoshana Rabba.

The Shomrei Emunim Rebbe already lives in E"Y.

Josh is worried about Hoshana Rabba this year. I heard he built an underground bunker sukkah.

LoL
Just joking, it's 2.30am, I'm allowed to.

This year, I have a pop-up sukkah. (Really.)

That way, at the last minute, I can put it on my back with some freshly mixed dough and head out to avoid the milchemet Gog UMagog, when it comes.

I think Gog's opponents in the war will be extremely confused. Should they be targeting Bush, Obama, or Glenn Beck?

Not to mention that if "everyone" in chu"l were to buy an apartment, prices would skyrocket and become even more in-affordable for everyone!
