God Says "Hakuna Matata!"

I think one thing people are scared about is that there are just too many arabs. Sometimes there's in-killing (fatah-hamas), or we'll stop a suicide attack, or something, but that's only a little bit. One dies here, one there. Not really enough to get rid of them.

HaShem in this weeks parsha though, says not to worry. Dvarim 7:17-20: "Perhaps you will say in your heart, 'These nations are more numerous than I, how will I be able to drive them out?' Do not fear them! You shall remember what HaShem your God did to Paroh and to all of Mitzrayim...So shall HaShem your God do to all these peoples before whom you fear."

HaShem knew we were going to ask this question. So he asuaged(?) our worries early on, right in the Torah.

May Mashiach come soon.
