says that if you see nations if you see countries warring against each other prepare for the footsteps of mashiach never in our lifetimes have we seen countries embroiled in war the first time since world war ii such a major conflict in europe russia and ukraine prepare for the footsteps of mashiach asked rabbi aaron labstein that throughout the history of the world there's been many wars the seven year war the french revolutionary war the crimean war alexander the great in modern era you have world war one world war ii the cold war the war on terror so where was mashiach didn't come what happened to the madrid you see countries at war meshiach is so close answers rav steinman that any time there's a war amongst countries like we're seeing unfold before our eyes right now it means that it's ripe for messiah and he could very well come but we squander the opportunity we sabotage moshiach's arrival let's look at what's going on the world right now russia not simple russia is the largest country in the world 17 million square kilometers 1.8 times the size of china russia spans 11 time zones and is housed on two continents europe and asia there's nothing like russia no country in the world like russia the prophet ezekiel when he speaks about the ultimate war gol gamogok he says the country that will wage war against the world will be our cassette cell phone the country in the furthermost north russia is the largest and most populous country all the way north much of it lies on the arctic circle the vilnigon has a tradition and this is cited by refined volusion brisk as a matter of fact rabbit swallow of vision has the same tradition from his grandfather rabbi abraham hamad that when russia asserts itself when russia looks for expansionism and global domination it means that mashiach is super close russia wants to take over there's another prophecy and that is that when russia annexes or invades crimea it's ripe for meshiach that already happened in 2014 there's an archangel in the heavens a malach called the talmud interacted yuma page 77 speaks about it as the guardian angel of the nation of persia the villenegon says that it's a very evil angel the creeper that is bad russia represents the duvet devel the etymology of the veal is beer what is the symbol of russia it is the bearer russia was always known as the big brutal clumsy bear but here's the issue because dubio is the archangel of paris of persia so what does vilna gone mean that there's a connection between russia and duveal the beer the talmud says that persia epitomizes the ravenous loitering beer look at iran iran is the number one sponsor of terrorism in the entire world today it has numerous proxies it has hezbollah in lebanon and syria it has hamas in gaza it has the houthis in yemen did you know that iran gives six billion dollars to syria seven hundred million dollars annually to hezbollah 100 million dollars annually to the palestinian causes amongst them hamas and islamic jihad iran is super diabolical pernicious and dangerous vehement iran and russia who got together now none other than russia and iran they disbanded they decided to forsake the american dollar and now it's the real and the ruble no more american dollar they dispensed with it but there's yet another piece to the puzzle because there's another prophecy and that is when russia goes to constant opal we know meshiach is close constant opal represents turkey the capital the seat of the islamic empire of the ottoman empire today known as istanbul the targaryens of new zealand then the parties bullock speaks about turkey constantinople istanbul as the sign from meshiach there's a triumvirate russia iran and turkey russia representing gog dupiel persia iran representing the ancient persian empire that the gemara speaks about as last reigning country in the world perhaps and turkey representing the islamic nation ismail and what do you know just two weeks ago putin finally leaves russia the first time since the war with ukraine and where does he go to visit he doesn't go to williamsburg or flatbush he doesn't even go to tom's river he doesn't go to miami not even to orlando where does putin go he goes to iran to meet with kaimeni and with erdogan from turkey a trilateral meeting three of them together when you see the nations fighting with one another saw for the raggle of shalmushiach the time is ripe the time is now but it's up to us how are we going to respond what are we going to do what decision will we make will we work on ourselves this tishbo will we bring mashiach how that all tragedy and suffering you know how many people are in memorial sloan kettering hospital dying of cancer how many people are wallowing in crisis off the terror how many people lost their parnosa how are people waiting to get married somebody starts there's one answer you know you could ask in your shimones or you could say hashem please you know bring a cure to this illness and get that person married and help this person find income but there's one greater panacea there's one greater answer you just ask hashem please bring the redemption let me could come all the problems if he wanted to hashem says back to us it's all your fault because you don't get along with your fellow jew you don't care enough you're fighting you're blaming you're labeling i'll tell you an amazing story there was a fundraiser of a major organization that found out that his organization was getting an anonymous donation every month from a certain benefactor so he calls up the donors fund and he says who's the benefactor and they said well he doesn't want to be known totally anonymous see he's so intrigued he almost feels like beleaguered like i have to know who's supporting their institution who's giving the money so he probes him prize and he finally discovers that it's somebody that dovin's with him every single morning at minion but he can't know who it is you know what happened every day he went to minion he started greeting anyone in shore because he didn't know who that secret benefactor is he started treating everybody with respect and kindness just in case if he gives somebody like half a smile instead of a full smile it may be the benefactor he may be insulted and he may stop his check to the organization he doesn't want to get anybody's nerves it may affect the donation she said you know and maybe anybody here i have to be nice to everybody because you never know who it is every person we encounter is a potential donation to us is god's child and god says you treat that person with respect and dignity i'm putting money in your bank account you're not in td bank not in chase you're not getting it zell you're not getting a quick pay you're getting it up there priceless inestimable value next time you go to school say hello to everybody because that person may just need that hello that smile and you're going to get a donation there was a fellow who always looked down and a scance upon a certain person it's not my schnit you know it's not for my community and very condescending one day this person's son ate a nut harmless it's just a cashew it was on circus and they were away for halal my trip and the kids started choking on the cashew instead of going down the esophagus went down the trachea went down the windpipe instead of the food pipe and the kid was choking the kid was turning and the father called out salah hot salaman came worked on the kid and eventually saved the kid's life thought some member that came was the man who the father always looked down upon he's not good enough he became his hero became the greatest most important person in his life because it saved his only son you never know in life who the hero will be every jew has to be treated like a hero because in god's eyes in hashem's eyes that person is a hero when we treat others with compassion and respect we get it back multiplied tell you an amazing story about a man whose name was jude newman war one he was working in a pow camp prison of war camp in poland and there were german pows he was jewish he was religious he was in a very compromised position he was there to supervise the pows and there was one german gentile pow who was caught stealing bread and he was court-martialed and he was told that he's now going to be shot to death judah newman was the one that was appointed to bring him into the forest accompanied by two polish officers and to shoot the german to death so as they're walking to the forest the german p.o.w the guard the gentile turns to yodanum and he says bis do i eat are you jewish and your number was a little shaken he says i'm jewish [Music] the gentile turns to you the newman the german and he says he knew the word rahmanus even though that's not german it's yiddish even though there are similarities have compassion i'm a father have children don't shoot me they're going to the forest yoda naman tells yuda newman tells the two officers at a company says listen don't worry i got this i know how to do it you could go back i'm okay they retreat they leave judah newman says to the german take off your shirt takes off his shirt hold it up holds it up takes his pistol his gun shoots there are holes now in the shirt he walks over to the germany takes his rifle and injures the german skin makes a bleed takes the shirt soaks it in the blood and tells the german yay go run away and the german turns to judah newman the man that saves his life he says was i enuming what is your name he says my newman is nominee no mean the german runs away yoda newman now has the shirt that's full of blood and the bullet hole and brings it back to the polish satisfied now that the german was dead fast forward more than 20 years later 1939. by that time the newman family yuda newman and his family living in germany they are rounded up by the ss by the nazis to be put on trains heading of course back to poland towards the concentration camps and just as judah newman is going on the train he hears someone screaming no man he looks he's startled he's astonished go maya come here he goes to the nazi officer who's calling him the nazi officer looks and says no man you don't recognize me the forest the shirt the bullet the blood no man you're not going on the train you and your family are going to france
