Osama BEN Laden is from Yemeni Extraction; there are also stories the
BEN Ladens were jewish converts to Islam. In Yemen we had the USS Cole
Disaster, and of course the "suicide whatevers' a trail led to a hotel
with Koran, glasses, etc.
In this story here it speaks of the litieral translatoin of the bible -
On Wings of Eagles - American US Planes, as being the "saviors" of jews
planted in Yemen.
USS Cole - did Sharon need a "wag the dog" for sympathy; remember the
USS Liberty.
The entire book of Isaiah in particular is linked to 911 attack - the
figurative and literal translation thereof.
My case is simply this - surely, if the Wings of the Eagle represented
the USA spiriting away the jews the safety from assassins, SURELY THE
FIERY FLYING SERPENTS OF ISAIAH 30 (see 29 and 30 for Towers and
Serpents) were the symbolism of the revenge on the great city of Babylon
- New York City, for doesn't this creepy bunch drag the USA down into a
cesspool with their portrayal of America as the Great Satan, land of
Sodom and Gomorrah - and in particular Hollywood who bring words into
pictures then into action - real life disaster.
It is all in the game plan....notice today, it was February 5 (the date
Patty Hearst kidnapped) that the now 6 kidnappers spirited away by 2,
captured Danny Pearl and it was on February 5, code words given to the
kidnappers to release Pearl only the response was - Dad is dead. True
or not true - what about the "wings of eagle" alleged to have taken
Pearl from Pakistan - booked passage on Airline.
Then look what we have - Minister of Tourism murdered in Afghanistan
while Slobo on trial for war crimes reminds us that Osama BEN Laden
known as "The Constractor", heavy Mafia code name, fought with the USA
to destroy Serbia IN PARTICULAR SERBIAN ORTHODOX CHURCHES.
See if you see the games people play - this IS the bible calendar in
full force and the USA has the enemy within now counterintelligence is
the word for today - so Remember Hanssen, John O'Neil, all into counter
intelligence and counter-terrorism....both who sold us out to KGB and
MOSSAD - our friends, oh what friends.
So Onward Christian Soldiers, Marching on the War - With the Star of
David your guiding light.....the Great Sodom and Gomorrah is playing the
game now.

Isaiah 40:
"31": But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they
shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.
(CODE: Operation Wings As Eagles?)
"Then, in June 1949, the Israeli government airlifted nearly all the
remaining 50,000 Yemenite Jews to Israel.
The airlift was called Operation Magic Carpet but became
known as "on wings of eagles" because so many Yemenite Jews had never
seen an airplane and believed that this was what God had promised in the
book of Isaiah when He said that His children would return to Zion "with
wings, as eagles."

Yemen's Jews go it aloneThere are few in this Arab nation, but plenty of
prideBy Bob Arnot
MSNBC
GHAREER, Yemen, Feb. 15 — Salaam Alaikum — "peace be with you" —
is the usual Muslim greeting used in much of the Arab world. In the
small town of Ghareer, Yemen, things are no different, with one
exception: Here, even Jews greet friends and neighbors with the phrase.
Despite animosity between the Arab world and Israel, the four Jewish
families who live in Ghareer appear to be doing just fine. According to
one family, the Yemeni government even goes out of its way to protect
them.
GHAREER is located amid the region's most picturesque
scenery, about a five-hour drive from the Yemeni capital of San'a. After
shaking off a government minder and police escorts, the village seemed
like the end of the earth.
Here in this fertile valley dotted with traditional
mud-and-brick structures Yusef Musa and his family live and work. The
Musa family proudly displays their heritage, with young and old members
alike wearing their hair in traditional Jewish side locks.
This, in a country that is virtually entirely Muslim:
Yemen borders on Saudia Arabia and is less than 600 miles from the
holiest cities of Islam, Mecca and Medina.
Most recently, it has attracted the attention of the
United States because of its suspected links to suspected terror
mastermind Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network. The government admits
there may be al-Qaida suspects in the country but says the network has
no military training camps or any other organized presence.
U.S. links Yemen clan to Sept. 11
Yemen, the poorest country of the Arabian Peninsula, has committed
itself to joining the U.S. war on terrorism, but Yemeni officials say
this cannot be done without U.S. training, military assistance and aid.

NO INTEREST IN ISRAEL
Inside their three-story home, Musa and his son have a
silversmith's shop, where they craft elegant items to sell in the
capital. Life here is simple, by Western standards at least.
A grinding stone for milling grain sits in one room, and
a cow lives just outside the kitchen. A primitive generator is one of
the only modern amenities.
Musa, the small clan's leader, agreed to an interview
with MSNBC.com in the family's sitting room, where the men gather for
afternoon tea and "ghat," a drug similar to chewing tobacco.
Musa says his family was given the chance to immigrate to
Israel, Britain, or even the United States, but that he has chosen to
stay. He says he's never been to Israel, and that he has no interest in
going.
"We live in peace and harmony here," he said. "We feel
safe here ... and if we have trouble with another tribe, we just go to
the government and they take care of it."
'WINGS OF EAGLES'
Conditions for Jews in Yemen weren't always so peaceful.
Their troubles date to the advent of Islam in the eighth century, when
all Jews in Yemen were relegated to the lowest rung on the social ladder
— and to a life of poverty.
In the 1920s, Yemen introduced an ancient Islamic law
requiring that Jewish orphans under age 12 be forcibly converted to
Islam.
By the 1940s, more than a thousand Jews had been killed
in Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Syria and Yemen. One of the worst incidents came
in 1947, when Muslim rioters, joined by local police, engaged in a
bloody pogrom in the port city of Aden that killed 82 Jews and destroyed
hundreds of Jewish homes. As a result, the Jewish community was
economically paralyzed.
Given the worsening conditions, 16,000 of Yemen's Jews
— about a third of the Jewish population — left for Israel between
World War I and 1948. Then, in June 1949, the Israeli government
airlifted nearly all the remaining 50,000 Yemenite Jews to Israel.
The airlift was called Operation Magic Carpet but became
known as "on wings of eagles" because so many Yemenite Jews had never
seen an airplane and believed that this was what God had promised in the
book of Isaiah when He said that His children would return to Zion "with
wings, as eagles."
• NBC, MSNBC and Newsweek correspondents in the war zone.
In 1962, under Communist rule in Yemen, the remaining
Jews were cut off from the outside world. Today, there are an estimated
200 Jews in Yemen.
Jewish critics say Yemenite Jews are still treated as
second-class citizens and cannot serve in the army or be elected to
political positions. Marriage is absolutely forbidden outside of the
religion.
STAYING PUT
But the sentiment of the very few Jews who stayed behind
appears to have changed. First of all, official expressions of
anti-Semitism have declined sharply under the present government.
And the largest population of Jews is ironically
protected by the head of the Al Islam Islamic party, Sheik Abdullah
Hussein Hammer, who has actually been strident in his criticism of
Israel.
But no longer looking to escape "on the wings of eagles,"
Musa said he has no problems with President Ali Abdullah Sale's current
anti-Israeli stance.

"We live in peace under his policies. We don't know
Israel and Israel doesn't know us. We don't have any criticism against
him," Musa said of Sale. "We are Yemeni, as were our fathers and
grandfathers. We don't want to get involved in any foreign or internal
policy."
When asked if he's ever been pressured to convert to
Islam, Musa said, "Never." "No one has talked to us about the Quran; no
one has put pressure on us. We stay with our Torah."
