EXORCIST DIARY: From Msgr. Rossetti – More than a few people seek healing through witchcraft and occult rituals, often with good intentions. There are “healing witches,” “curanderos,” and “shamans” who promise healing magic. Those who come to us after seeing such occult healers often report an initial feeling of relief after these magic rituals, but then the problems become much worse. Good intentions do not alter the reality that when the true God is not invoked in spiritual practices, dark spirits will often respond.

There is one safe source for healing: Jesus. And if Jesus does not give us the grace we want, He will give us the grace we need. This always includes the strength to endure in faith whatever comes. The Christian learns to trust in God. Unfortunately, this life is often a “vale of tears.” But, whatever comes, we trust that God is in charge and, in Him, all things that come our way will ultimately be for our good.

FAUXTUS: Last month, on the anniversary of the 9/11 attack on the U.S., President Biden agreed to unfreeze $6 billion in Iran funds in exchange for Iran releasing five U.S. citizens being detained by Iran. After Hamas launched a massive terror attack against Israel with backing from Iran, Republicans and Democrats alike demanded Biden refreeze the funds. He said no.

During his Oval Office speech on October 19, Joe Biden slammed Iran for supporting Hamas and Russia. CLICK https://rumble.com/v3qk19g-biden-slams-iran-for-supporting-hamas…-after-giving-them-6-billion.html [:20] to hear him say, “Iran is supporting Russia in Ukraine, and it’s supporting Hamas and other terrorist groups in the region. And we’ll continue to hold them accountable, I might add.”

THE JIHADIST’S DRUG: Captagon was first manufactured in 1961, but its highly addictive nature and deadly side effects caused the U.S. and other governments to declare it a controlled substance with no currently accepted medical use. Legal manufacture of the drug ended in the 1980s.

Known as “the poor man’s cocaine”, it is primarily manufactured in Syria and marketed in the Middle East where it has become one of the most serious health and social problems in the Arab world. In addition to the usual symptoms of amphetamine-like stimulants – i.e., like sustained energy, suppressed appetite, and reduced need for sleep – it also induces a state of fearless euphoria that has made it popular with terrorists. ISIS fighters have been known to use it and it was found recently in the pockets of Hamas terrorists.

An estimated 90% of the U.S. population is deficient in this vital nutrient. Generally, the recommended intake is 425 milligrams (mg) a day for women and 550 mg/day for men, but some people have a genetically-acquired need for more. In addition, women who are pregnant, nursing, or postmenopausal need more, as do endurance athletes and alcoholics.

Choline, also known as Vitamin B4, plays a significant role in human health, from neurotransmitter synthesis to cell structures, and may be involved in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), atherosclerosis, and neurological disorders. It has also been shown to relieve pain without negative side effects.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to get enough just from food and, since the best sources are animal foods, vegetarians and vegans can not get enough unless they take a supplement. Good food sources include grass-fed beef liver, cauliflower, codfish, salmon, kidney beans, quinoa, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and shiitake mushrooms. The best source is eggs (147 mg each), but even then, you need to eat them frequently.

Consumer Lab recommends the phosphatidyl choline form, as this is better absorbed than other forms. N.b., this is the form primarily present in eggs. Unfortunately, CL’s Top Pick for this form – Puritan’s Pride Ultra Concentrated Lecithin – seems to be sold out even at the Puritan’s Pride web site. Other brands that CL approved cost more, but at least they’re available. These include NOW Sunflower Lecithin (360 mg of phosphatidyl choline in 2 soft gels) and Natural Factors Phosphatidyl Choline (420 mg in 1 soft gel).

I’ve been using Vitacost Choline & Inositol, which contains choline bitartrate. Consumer Lab links to studies showing this form elevates blood levels of TMAO, which is linked to increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Choline bitartrate can also contribute to the formation of kidney stones. Vitacost carries both of the two shown above. Note: Natural Factors contains soy lecithin which Dr. Axe says may cause “negative reactions including nausea, bloating, constipation, rashes on the skin, abdominal pain and other digestive problems.” I’m going to switch to the NOW Sunflower Lecithin and see how it goes.

I found the powder at Amazon and it appears to be the authentic product. It’s said to be tasteless and I like that it’s cheaper per dose and that I can adjust the dose more easily than with a gelcap. I ordered a bottle.

PSA: I usually buy my supplements in one big, monthly order from Vitacost, but sometimes I goof and forget something. Since we have Amazon Prime, it’s cheaper to get a single bottle of something through them. With this one tip, I can make sure I am getting the brand name products I trust. This week, I needed a bottle of a Solaray product; they say they are sold by and shipped from “Healthway Shop.” I went to the Solaray website and emailed them; they confirmed that they use the Healthway Shop name at Amazon, because they sell other labels than Solaray, but all are shipped from their warehouse.

THE FATHER SPEAKS: This book is feeding my spirit with rich meat! It’s called “The Father Speaks to His Children” by Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio; it was one of Father Mark’s book of the month club selections. I bought it for my Kindle, but it’s available for free as a pdf download @ https://www.fatherspeaks.net/pdf/the_father_speaks_english_v-2005-02.pdf.

Sr. Eugenia was thoroughly vetted by theologians and her writings were approved by her bishop. “Following the dictates of my soul and my conscience, and with the keenest sense of my
responsibility to the Church, I declare that supernatural and divine intervention seems to me
the only logical and satisfactory explanation of the facts.” – Bishop Gaillot, Grenoble

Just a brief quote to whet your appetites. The Father said to Sr. Eugenia, “I have chosen this day to begin My work among men because today is the feast of the Precious Blood of My Son Jesus. I intend to bathe in this Blood the work I am beginning, so that it may bear great fruit among all mankind. I am coming to banish the excessive fear that My creatures have of Me, and to show them that My joy lies in being known and loved by My children, that is, by all mankind, present and future.“

GRAMMY NOTES: I just gotta brag … I’m on the phone with Mama Buzz and she said she had to go, because her boys decided they want to do math and she should go supervise. I mean … can you imagine kids deciding they want to do school work?! I love it. BTW, the photo is Bunny on a zip line. I’m so proud of her! She really struggles with fears and anxiety, so this was a Big Deal!

Hamas and multiple news outlets are blaming Israel with no evidence, but both the Israel Defense Force and our own Department of Defense agree that the hospital was hit by a missile that a group called Palestinian Islamic Jihad was attempting to launch into Israel.

It’s absurd to think Israel would bomb a hospital. They go way out of their way to protect civilians and always have. Frankly, my first thought was, “I wouldn’t put it past Hamas to bomb their own hospital for the anti-Israel PR value.” I mean, really. They use their own children as walking bombs. Nothing is beneath them.

HARVARD: On October 8, thirty-four student groups co-signed a letter authored by the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee that said Israel was “entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.” Nine of them later recanted. Harvard’s leadership had ::crickets:: to say, which led to a barrage of criticism from alumni, professors, and at least two billionaires becoming ex-donors. Former Harvard president Larry Summers said the students’ letter and lack of response by the administration “sickened” him. In addition, a number of CEOs of U.S. companies have expressed a willingness to blacklist those Harvard students who blamed Israel for the violence perpetrated by Hamas.

RED PILLED: Democrat billionaire venture capitalist Chamath Palhapitiya recently admitted that “Trump Derangement Syndrome” did far more harm than Trump ever did.

“As a Democrat who has been left homeless [politically], who is, I’m left yet again with an appreciation, despite the messenger of the message, of the Trump administration. Because what those guys did was pretty incredible. So much of the work that happened in that administration turned out to have been right, and that is what is so frustrating for me.”

“The work on the border wall, we didn’t like the messenger [Trump], so we killed the message. Turned out it was right. Issuing long-term debt to refinance when rates were at zero. We didn’t like the messenger, so we killed the message. A structural peace deal in the Middle East. We didn’t like the messenger, so we killed the message.”

“When are we going to stop shooting ourselves in the foot?” he added.

Ali got herself a job at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) helping to determine who qualifies for asylum.

This week, Ali has made several social media posts glorifying the terrorist attacks on Israel, including one depicting armed terrorists paragliding into the Jewish state with the caption, “Free PALESTINE.” On Instagram, she posted, “Palestine will be free one day.

MAKEUP FREE: On Sept. 29, Natasha Beresford (26) was crowned the first Miss Make-Up Free London 2023. The new pageant encourages judges to look past appearance and evaluate contestants based on inner beauty, talents and ethics. In addition to being lovely in her own skin and having an impressive resumé, she wore the most modest and feminine outfit of the five semi-finalists. Methinks the one who chose low cut, denim short shorts and a bare midriff, bare arm top didn’t quite get the gist of the competition.

MUSLIMS SUCK: On Tuesday, Egypt shut its border with Gaza and, on Thursday, Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah al-Sisi told his fellow Muslims in Gaza that, war or no war, they are not welcome. Sometimes I gotta wonder if Allah wasn’t just the name of a demon who whispered in Mohammed’s ear.

PRAY FOR PEACE: Catholic and Orthodox bishops have declared Tuesday, October 17, to be a worldwide day of fasting, prayer, and abstinence for peace. October 17 is the feast of St. Ignatius of Antioch, a first-century martyr and Church Father. A disciple of John the Apostle, he was sentenced to death in 107 for refusing to renounce the Christian faith. While he was being taken to Rome to be brutally devoured by wild beasts in a public spectacle, he wrote seven letters of encouragement, instruction and inspiration to fellow Christians which are still treasured today.

WH SPOX: Multiple times in recent weeks, KJP has been called out for ignoring specific reporters. Last week, when reporter Jalil Afridi of Pakistan’s The Frontier Post was called on, he asked if he could have two questions since she had not called on him in four months. KJP said, “After that statement, that leaves you with one question.” CLICK https://twitter.com/afridijalil/status/1709910350869492035 [3:54] to see the clip and his comments on KJP’s behavior. “On international issues, I think she lacks understanding.” Tamara Keith, who gave him a stool that has since been stolen, is the WH Correspondent for PBS.

On Wednesday, The New York Post’s WH reporter Steve Nelson complained, “You haven’t called on me in two seasons, Karine,” She responded, “And I’m not calling on you today.” Nelson fired back, “You should be ashamed of that! That shows disrespect to a free and independent media! It’s blacklisting one of the nation’s largest and most-read newspapers, Karine. That shows contempt for a free and independent press!” KJP continued to ignore him. The last time she called on Nelson was in May.

GRAMMY NOTES: I had a gastro appointment on Tuesday for my never-ending gut issues, which resulted in a diagnostic diet that we thought would put the kibosh on our usual anniversary fancy-foods celebration. But my guy is so good … he took the diet sheet to Wegman’s and hunted down a delicious meal and dessert for us that fit the OK foods list! After eating, we said a rosary in thanksgiving for our amazing marriage and family, then watched a movie. It was perfect. ❤

The following is excerpts from “Israelis Describe Hellish Scenes in Communities Attacked by Hamas Terrorists” by Bill Pan, published in The Epoch Times on October 13, 2023.

—————————

The atrocities were too much to handle, even for someone with decades of experience in recovering bodies.

Content warning: This article contains graphic descriptions of extreme violence that may be distressing to some readers.

An Israeli emergency responder with two decades of experience in recovering bodies said he found it difficult to deal with what he witnessed in communities ravaged by the onslaught of Hamas terrorists, a picture that could only be described as hellish.

“Do you want me to tell you about the hardest sights? Bodies of babies tied up,” Mendy Haviv, a commander of non-governmental rescue and recovery organization ZAKA, told Epoch Israel.

Mr. Haviv and his ZAKA volunteers entered Be’eri, a kibbutz near Israel’s border with Hamas-controlled Gaza. Home to more than 1,000 people before Hamas unleashed attacks that Israeli officials characterized as the “worst since the Holocaust,” Be’eri is now a place marked by horror and inhumanity.

“At the end of the kibbutz, in a house that was completely destroyed, they [the babies] are sitting on a fence outside of the house,” Mr. Haviv recalled. “Their bodies are burned. Their parents, sitting in front of them, are slaughtered.“

He moved on to describe even more harrowing scenes: a pregnant woman with her stomach cut open and a woman burned in a wheelchair.

“Burnt bodies, burnt houses everywhere. Decapitated heads of children of several ages,” he added. “The smell of rotting corpses [is so bad] that you can’t even breathe. This is the horror we are dealing with.”

In kibbutz Kfar Gaza, a little more than five miles north of Be’eri, Mr. Haviv said the volunteers encountered booby traps placed under the victims’ bodies.

“The bodies are still there, with the explosive charge, at least until yesterday,” he told Epoch Israel. “The whole activity there for those 24 hours just makes you cry.“

The search and recovery commander said he was not allowed to take photos of the victims. But for the purpose of identification, he only took pictures of unique marks like tattoos and earrings.

“I don’t photograph horrors. I don’t photograph decapitated heads. Definitely not. Because the Jewish religion forbids me to do this,” he said. “But for the purpose of identification, I take pictures of what needs to be taken: tattoos, earrings, all kinds of signs, so that the family will know that the person was found [dead] and was not kidnapped.”

Retired Lt. Col. Yaron Buskila, an Israeli Defense Force (IDF) veteran-turned-military commentator and contributor to Epoch Israel, said he talked to a rabbi who went into the kibbutzim with IDF troops to give the victims proper Jewish burial. He now regrets having that conversation.

“I regret that I even met the rabbi,” said Mr. Buskila, who has seen combat during his service. “His descriptions of things he saw were so shocking to hear that I just threw up.”

In addition to children and adults being decapitated, according to Mr. Buskila, the rabbi saw “babies that were hanged in a row” with their mothers’ bras.

“Even in the [horror] film, it is difficult to see such sights,” he said.

FAUXTUS: Joe Biden has strongly denied that he ever discussed business with his son while he was Obama’s VP. A new FOIA shows that, in fact, Joe emailed his son Hunter andhis brother Jim Biden and their respective firms an average of 10 emails per day during his two terms as vice president.

GEORGE SOROS: The Nazi sympathizer who has been using his billion$ to fund the Far Left has always hated Israel. In 2007, he insisted that both American and Israel “must open the door to Hamas”, a group that included Jewish genocide in its founding charter.

ISRAEL: A senior Hamas official says that Hamas began preparing for its recent attack on Israel two years ago, which means after the Biden administration orchestrated its disastrous withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.

PALESTINE: One of the moronic co-hosts on The View tried to defend Gazans on the basis that they did not elect the terrorist government making war on Israel. Actually, they did. In 2006, Hamas won the majority of seats in the Palestinian Legislature; since 2007, there have been no new elections, because Hamas doesn’t want to lose control. However, it is unlikely they would, since a 2021 poll showed 59% of Gazans are satisfied with the performance of the Hamas government and 47% support Hamas’ use of violence as their primary method of resistance.

VAXXX: A study entitled “Effects of the COVID-19 booster vaccine on glycemia and insulin resistance in people with type 1 diabetes: A prospective pilot study” was published on September 5, 2023 in Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice.It reports that the ‘rona booster may cause a rise in blood sugar in folks with Type 1 Diabetes. For most, the effect is minor and transient, though some have had acute reactions that required hospitalization. Diabetics are encouraged to pay close attention to their blood sugar following any vaccination, since the reason for the rise is not understood at this time.

WOMEN’S SPORTS: The Education Amendments of 1972, more commonly referred to as Title IX (or Title Nine), prohibited sex-based discrimination in any school or any other education program that receives funding from the federal government. It led to massive growth in athletic opportunities for females as schools were forced to fund neglected teams for girls. Title IX is now being used to destroy these gains.
