When Glenn teased a big announcement at the top of yesterday’s radio show, Blaze readers sounded off with their theories. When he announced that it was an event in Jerusalem, the readers let him know what they thought. The combination of both produced a litany of funny, serious, and downright wacky comments. Consequently, we couldn’t let those comments go by unnoticed. Below we‘ve compiled a top ten list of comments surrounding yesterday’s announcement. Did you make the list?
10. GhostofJefferson captured the sentiment of some by asking “why?”
9. Rightwrite thinks Glenn is crazy:
8: Smokinbugsy, on the other hand, is afraid his family will think he’s crazy if he tries to go, especially his wife (who might need a call from Glenn):
7. Ghee99 believes that the announcement isn’t really the announcement:
6. There were also theories about what this announcement said about Glenn’s apparent role in the end times:
5. Before the official announcement, we had many people offering their theories as to what it might be. That provided us with everything from Glenn getting an operation:
4. …to him running for office:
3. …to his insurance rates:
2. …people even conjectured that he might have a “spooky” father:
1. But the top comment of the day goes to Huggingmybabies, who seems to understand (like many others) what the event is all about:

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:22amGlenn – You are an arrow hitting the bullseye. Be strong and continue to seek God with all your heart and being. He will increase in you the tenacious courage, favor and grace that are required for the days ahead. Let Him be your borders and your boundaries. The world is going through an epoch transition. You see and understand much of what is going on. Get ready…The eyes of your understanding are about to be see broader and deeper than you have ever dreamed possible.
You, your family and staff are among the top priorities of my prayer list. I‘m praying that God will quicken even more intercessors to provide daily covering for you and those asssociated with you as you progress toward the fullness of the destiny of God’s will for your life in Jesus Name. (Become familiar with Job 22:28)
Wooo-Whooo! As darkness increases, so much more will the glory of the knowledge of the Lord fill the earth.

Wake up and see the signs all around you of what is happening not only in America but in the world. Countries like the US and Israel are the only thing holding “evil” back from taking over the entire world. They are after Israel now and the US will be next! Get your head out of the sand!

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 5:44pmThat isn’t even biblical! God doesn’t turn His back on a Nation because they are no longer politically motivated to back Israel. God throughout the Old Testament punished Israel for turning away from HIM. If He turns His back on the US it is because we refused to turn to Him, not Israel.
Don’t get me wrong, I support Israel’s right to be a nation and as a Christian I want to see Israel turn back to God but dont think for a moment that God expects the citizens of the world to travel there and have a show of support like a lame political protest. God’s way of showing support is prayer.
Today Glenn Beck said something on his radio show that for the first time made me think that his intentions are not focused on God’s agenda but his own.
He said: “Talk to those who get it” and I am paraphrasing the rest of the statement- “forget the others”. Really? Only talk to those who agree with you Glenn and those who are firmly and devoutly dedicated in thier walk with Jesus Christ and serving God but who disagree with you on this trip…forget them? Don’t talk to them? Really man? Wow.
You got some splainin to do.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:20amIf you know anything about the Bible, Israel (God’s chosen) is the epicenter of all things. Glenn is right, we MUST stand with Israel and send a message to the world that we aren’t going to let it go down without a fight, Just read the current headlines. If you don’t believe that Israel is already under attack you are simply in denial. The U.S. is directly tied to Israel, as are Christians, remember we are the “great satan”. It will be just a matter of time before it’s on our doorstep (this may already be happening on the Mexican border). Go ahead and laugh and make cheap shots. They laughed when Noah was building the Ark too but it wasn’t so funny when the were inhaling water.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:17amWhether people want to believe it or not but the fate of the entire world rests on what happens in Israel, NO nation will stand up and survive if they do not support Israel. God is giving all the nations the chance to “save” themselves by backing Israel. If we do not support Israel then that is the same as cursing them and thereby God will curse us. Glenn you are doing what needs to be done more than anything for no matter what happens to this nation God WILL bless us who also support you as you support Israel. God will bless you beyond understanding!

If you can go to Israel and that’s what God is leading you to do, then go. If you can’t, there’s lots of ways to STAND UP for the right. Don’t judge others, JUST DO whatever God is telling you to do.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:17amI have listen to Glenn for a few years now and this does not surprise me at all. I also support Israel but I will have to do it here where I live because I don’t have the money to travel that far. I believe Glenn is right if Israel falls we will not be long behind but I feel we will fall long before Israel because we have voted time and time again for this progressive agenda and stopping this country from hitting bottom after it has left the cliff’s edge is impossible and guess what folks I believe we have already stepped over the edge. These MORONS in power now think all that is going on is the middle east is just great and that Israel is the problem…Israel is the only area in the middle east that is prospering and has freedom. But of course THAT IS THE PROBLEM. You see we all have to be equal in the progressive’s eye to do that it would be impossible to bring up the rest of the world to our level so they have to bring us DOWN to the rest of the world’s level. Either way we need to realize that a sh8 storm is coming and it will not only affect Israel but America as well and if you are not ready well all I can say you better get ready fast because it is just around the corner.

In regards to Ghee99′s comments, doesn’t he know that wearing a yarmulke in Israel is a sign of respect? It has nothing to do with conversion. Also, “not like it’s any worse than being a Mormon.” I am flabbergasted by how many people say the same things about Mormonism as they do Judaism. Lack of education and research? Lack of acceptance? I don’t know about the rest of you, but I feel like some people are just missing the point. I know Jewish people and people of the LDS faith and they are GOOD PEOPLE!!!!! They have been persecuted, pushed out, killed in masses and yet people still don’t get it. It is a total sign of ignorance when you don‘t see the damage you’re doing by not joining others over shared values. We need to be kind, loving, steadfast and educate ourselves about the faiths of others. Judaism and Mormonism teach love, strength of the family, love and respect of God. So, what do these people have a problem with? I don’t get it.

You saw the ‘open borders’ leftist-islamist push over the weekend.
They want to give the terrorists Palestine statehood before the Egypt elects the Muslim Brotherhood to power.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:18amI totally agree. I just don’t know why people are expecting some biblical moment if they go in August. I tend to believe God works through real action, and not the kind where people stand around with a microphone. We have to get someone in office to stand with Israel when their enemies attack, that should be job one, job two, COLLEGE CAMPUSES are infested with anti-Israel propaganda. Let’s fight that directly.

You’re the only one so far here who sort of sees what this is about.
The Palestinian authority intends to proclaim a State of Palestine in September.
They will claim, and most of the world will support them in claiming, that Palestine includes all of the West Bank and Gaza, in other words, that Israel should return to its 1967 borders.
Israel will not recognize an independent Palestine on such terms, because it would mean giving up part of Jerusalem, and either repatriating West Bank settlers or accepting that they should become second-class citizens of Palestine, rather as Israeli Arabs are second-class citizens of Israel.
It will be interesting to see what the US will do, since the Obama administration is clearly more sympathetic to Palestine, and less to Israel, than the US has hitherto been.
You might note that the border incursions and demonstrations this week happened mostly along Israel’s frontiers with Lebanon, Syria and Gaza, not the West Bank where the Palestinian Authority is centered.
So, yes, September will be important, but it will not be all out war, still less Armageddon.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:08am. When you asked us to come to Israel and I was not immediately struck by a passion to go, I began to think, “God is not telling me to go, I will not be able to go, I cannot afford it, I cannot get any more time off of work. I work 12 hour shifts on Friday, Saturday and Sunday as an RN. Then you said, it will be in the middle of the week. One week ago, I wrote an email to John Hagee writing that my father was turning 80 and had always wanted to go to Israel. I was asking him for a signed picture of Hagee in Israel I was thinking that a picture of Hagee in Israel might be as close as he will ever come to Israel. I think I will just let God lead the way.

I know where I am going if the situation gets really bad. I hope that all who read these remarks knows where they will go. Perhaps making sure you have done what God wants from you in Romans 10:9-13 would be a good idea. Again, if there is any way someone could send me the money, please try to get my attention.

The whole world is going to pivot around that tiny nation God calls his chosen people’s home. It will be the showdown of good and evil, satan‘s forces against Christ’s. By publicly standing for Israel , it is the wake up call to the world-pick which side you will take, but be carefull , in the last days will come one who fools a lot of good people. I stand for our country-returned to it’s values, and I proudly stand here, there, and anywhere for Israel.

He simply is repeating his position that we are all in this together and “there but for the grace of G-D go I” trully applies when considering the fate of Israel and Jews all over the world. Never Again is more than a slogan over the entrance to the Hollocaust Museum. It was/is a commitment by all men and women who recognize that evil exists and that no action is action when it comes to confronting it. Israel is the canary in the coal mine and the shared fate of the world will be determined by not only your/our actions in August but with your comments on this forum. G-d is watching and reading along with the rest of us to see if we got his message. I can only pray that we have — along with Glenn in Israel this August!

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 9:55amI agree, or maybe even take it one step further. For the people that can’t afford to go to Israel, maybe go to Washington – Lincoln Memorial, at the same time, to show our politician leaders that we stand for Israel and all Christians and in general, all peace-seeking people around the world – to encourage our Government to acknowledge what is happening in Israel and the middle east and OUR OWN BORDERS and to speak out against it. Israel are our allies and we, as a nation, need to voice this and let the world know we stand with them. We as well should be standing with our own. Arizona and Texas have been asking for help – people there on the borders are being killed – Arizona borders are the 2nd leading place where woman and children are being sold for slaves – that’s scary. Don’t we as Americans stand with all peaceful nations / peaceful people. Isn’t that what America is about.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 1:03pmStephen you are correct in that God doesn’t “need” any of us to do anything for Him.
Not sure what that has to do with the price of potatoes in Idaho, though. It isn’t about God, it IS ABOUT US, and how WE CHOOSE TO STAND FOR HIM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
This is OUR CHOICE. Either we ACT to show our support for God or we do not.
Those of us who can’t afford to go to Israel can still donate $$ to help someone else get there, or promote and gather someplace to rally (I like the White House and DC idea because it is so visible) and for those in other countries to go to their capital cities also.
As the video from Cornerstone in another Blaze story shows so aptly, we REALLY ARE ENTERING A POINT OF NO RETURN…
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
Ephesians 6:19-20 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Posted on May 17, 2011 at 4:03pm“It isn’t about God, it IS ABOUT US,”
That pretty much shows me how backwards this whole quest is. It appears that you are not really sure how the relationship with God works with those he chooses. Read Romans 12: 1-2 and you may have a deeper understanding of what we are called to do. Present yourself as a living sacrifice. This doesn’t men put yourself in physical danger and call it courage. Do not conform to the ways of the world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. This means allow the Holy Spirit to change you from the inside out so that you will be more like Him and less like the person who died to Christ when you received him. THEN you will kow his good and perfect will.
God isn’t calling Americans to travel to Israel and …I still don’t know what you hope to achieve. You say you want to stand for God and show your faith in God then do as he calls you to do. John 14:23 Jesus answered and said to him, ” If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.
It doesn’t say anything about travel to Israel to show your support it says He will come to you. You are deluding yourself.

For here, if they media can distort the 8/28 as much as they did in our own backyard, over there is not going to be much different.

I joined the military to make action. Best time of my life. I think I made a difference. I support my neighbors directly, I don’t just throw money at them. If Glen wants to go FINE. But answer the question. WHY? What will it accomplish? Israel’s enemy is ruthless, and laugh their butts off when we just stand around talking. If people want to do something start with College Campuses. They are infested with anti-Israel propaganda. Next make sure we get someone in office that will directly protect Israel militarily when their enemies strike. Other than that, yes if God floats down in front of all of you in August and makes a miracle, sure I’ll eat my hat. But hey, what does Israel think of this?

Excerpt:
“He says that your dew-love helps me a lot Mom, and that I should pray and pray and pray for the people that He tells me to pray for. Wisdom (Jesus) says: “He, the new Aldo, is a part of the generation of Joel 2.”**
The world sees ISRAEL as the enemy. We must PRAY FOR ISRAEL. Wisdom says that He protects Israel. His heart is full of dew-love.. and He is Israel’s protection. In 2011 the hearts full of pride will be brought through the fire, because God wants to purify us. He wants to destroy our own plans.”

Today, the Muslim Extremist views that predate even Yasser Arafat all originate from and through Israel. As long as the extremists believe that the destruction of Israel is possible, terrorism will continue. Unfortunately, the “true believers” in the Arafat/Bin Laden Terrorist mindset do not understand or care about logic. Their beliefs are based on religious fervor. Reality, especially in Islam, does not matter because to these “True believers” Allah can turn even gravity upside down. Science is irrelevant because the Laws of Nature can be changed at the whims of their God.
