The Seduction of General Ashkenazi

Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous
Deut 16:19

Ashkenazi received the decoration as a special gesture during a military ceremony held in his honor at the Pentagon. Mullen called Ashkenazi over and slid the medal on his neck. He said the award was given to the IDF chief for his year long contribution to the war on terror, his work for Israel's security and his contribution to improving the security dialogue between the two armies.
Ashkenazi said Wednesday that the goal of his trip was "to understand the American outlook on the issues and problems in the Middle East. This is an excellent opportunity to make it clear to them how we see things. In this sense we see things eye to eye. We have no disagreements. The cooperation is very good."

This honor only muddles who General Gabi is supposed to serve
1. the U.S. Empire tasked by Satan to destroy Israel by way of their counterfeit peace.
2. or the Holy One of Israel ?
Hopefully there resides a deep spirtual spark of Godly wisdom ready to ignite within him.
This is how the praise of more powerful men ensnare's the less powerful rising men of power.
The message is clear, Chief of Israel's Army,you owe me, ,you work for us.
Hopefully the General is strong ,unlike the sock puppet's Olmert,Livni and Barak,who always bend their knee to the will of the U.S. ,always ignoring the will of God.
I hope Gabe is stubbornly loyal to Israel and God, wise enough to see the gift for what it is.
