I arrived at the storefront about 0950 today. I noticed a strange looking object lying out front, on the ground, beneath the King’s Men logo. With all the Kabala stuff, I figured it was a dead bird all wrapped up … you know, part of some curse type thing!
Upon closer inspection, it appeared to be some sort of wick soaked in gasoline! Then I noticed pieces of broken glass, like from a jar or bottle, here and there on the ground!
Hmmm! This wasn’t here yesterday evening because I sweep this whole area before I go home each day.
Then I noticed the brown smoke or scorched stain on and about the storefront’s logo!
Then I noticed the singed Israeli flags in the banner hanging above the logo which runs along the roof’s edge. Being an American, an ex G.I. with a patriotic background, something about a flag burning still tears at my heart.
Lastly I began noticing the finer details, like small glass fragments embedded in the logos paint job, which apparently was the point of contact, the focal point, the point of impact.
Then I noticed how the paint in the word ‘The’ of The King’s Men had run!
Sad but true!
Remember…satan is the king pin behind all this!
Well, the storefront held up to its new nickname! We used so much steel during restoration that the guys began calling it “The Bank”.
Thanks for your prayers, for standing with us, writing letters to those in high places, donations, etc, etc, etc. Thank you for your understanding, kindness, forgivingness, and love.
P.S.
I almost forgot to mention the police! They arrived minutes after being called. They collected evidence (the wick & broken glass) and actually took pictures!
To me they appeared to be doing a fine job! My only concern is what will become of evidence collected! Will it mysteriously disappear or accidentally get misplaced?
You say “No!” “That couldn’t happen!” I say, you have to think outside the USA box! This is the Middle East!
