MIDEAST UPDATE…10/27/2022…”Through the Wilderness to the Promised Land”
Just before the actual Update for this week, I’d like to share a few thoughts in introduction: All one needs to do to realize our world is facing a convergence of multiple crises like never before in man’s history is to open our eyes.
