Gog's Invasion of Eretz Yisrael???

20 Tishrei 5786

5th Day Chol Hamo'ed Sukkot

Shavua tov and moadim l'simchah!

[Fun Fact:  Today, the 20th of Tishrei marks exactly nine months on the Hebrew calendar since Trump re-assumed the office of the presidency in the US.  No idea if that has any significance or not.]

I had not intended on blogging during the chagim, but the events transpiring during this time are so urgent and so historic and so critical to our future, I don't feel that I am free to desist from this ongoing conversation about them.  I honestly believe that our current situation is every bit as dire as when we stood at the shore of Yam Suf.

To me, the most important thing for Klal Yisrael is to fully recognize and accept who our true enemies are and to disconnect from them - psychologically, emotionally, materially and spiritually.  With that aim in mind, I continue the warnings about the alliance between the Erev Rav regime (Netanyahu's government), Eisav (US/EU) and Yishmael (Saudis/Qataris/Egypt/Turkey) and urge everyone to fully internalize that HaKadosh Baruch Hu is our ONLY hope.

Pray like our lives depend on it because they do!!!

From a Report dated 5th October 2025 from Israel Defense:

Report: U.S. Expands THAAD Missile Defense Base in Israel

The current expansion serves as a clear signal of the United States’ deep commitment to Israel’s defense, especially amid growing regional tensions

After a direct military confrontation between Israel and Iran, the United States has expanded its support for Israel by strengthening its missile defense systems. Recent satellite images reveal a significant expansion of the U.S. Army’s THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) base, located near the “Site 512” radar facility in Israel’s Negev Desert. The expansion includes the addition of five launchers, bringing the total number at the base to eleven.

This reminds me of that classic story about each empire in turn going before HKB"H claiming that everything they had done had been for Israel's sake and HKB"H shuts them down with the truth, everything they did, they did for themselves!! Same thing here!!!

The “Secret” U.S. Base in Israel - Site 512

Two months before Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, the Pentagon awarded a $35.8 million contract to expand a “secret” U.S. military installation in Israel’s Negev Desert known as Site 512. Perched atop Mount Har Keren, roughly 5 miles from the Egyptian border and 20 miles from Gaza, the base was established in the early 2000s under the Bush administration as a top-secret radar facility and is now operated by the U.S. Army’s 1st Space Brigade.

At its core is the AN/TPY-2 X-band radar, one of the world’s most advanced early-warning systems, capable of detecting ballistic missiles thousands of miles away—Tehran is just over 1,000 miles to the northeast. The radar feeds real-time data to U.S. Missile Defense Agency operations in California and to a joint U.S.-Israel command center near Tel Aviv, where missile interceptors such as the Arrow, Patriot, and THAAD systems can be activated within minutes. The U.S. radar gives Israel up to six extra minutes of warning in the event of an Iranian missile launch, dramatically improving interception chances and civilian response times.

Though officially described as a “life support facility,” military jargon for troop housing, the expansion at Site 512 underscores Washington’s deepening military footprint in Israel. Initially manned by fewer than 100 personnel, the base now hosts around 300 U.S. servicemembers, with facilities capable of housing up to 1,000. The latest construction adds to major upgrades in 2017 and 2023, and U.S. deployments of THAAD launchers and additional radar systems further strengthen Israel’s missile defense network amid rising regional threats from Iran and Iranian-backed groups, including the Houthis in Yemen.

Despite official denials that U.S. troops are stationed in Israel, Site 512 represents the only permanent American base on Israeli soil. The Pentagon continues to refer to it obliquely as a “classified worldwide project,” reflecting lingering political sensitivities about acknowledging a U.S. military presence in Israel. Yet its strategic purpose is clear: to serve as an integrated early-warning hub and forward operating post for U.S. regional missile defense.

The installation’s dual nature—as both a shield for Israel and a node in U.S. regional strategy—has political implications. Because the radar is American-operated, Washington ultimately controls the flow of data to Israel, effectively giving the U.S. a veto over early-warning intelligence. This dynamic not only binds the two allies closer together militarily but also limits Israel’s freedom to act unilaterally, particularly against Iran.

In short, Site 512 is far more than a radar outpost: it is the technological and strategic linchpin of the U.S.-Israel defense partnership, symbolizing unprecedented military cooperation while cementing America’s permanent strategic foothold in the Middle East.

Wondering if this is where the "Joint Control Center" will be located. Something to keep in mind is that while they are claiming 200 US troops, there will be additionally an unknown number of foreign troops from Egypt, Turkey, Qatar and UAE. Who thought this was a good idea???!!!

The following was posted up shortly after Shabbat went out here. They are already arriving. Clearly this has been in the planning stage for some time.
