East. I know it’s mainly under your control and influence but I know that there are many in that hot bed of violence and intrigue that wish to see a greater influence of the Chinese Republican Empire. It is of no use to you or me or our respective empires to be caught into fighting each other through their machinations.
    “Besides, I know you have a hatred of Israel in spite of the warm fuzzy speeches you make in public forums. Israel seems to be very blessed. Her desert produces more than our best land, she has some of the best scientists, holds major patents and always seems to come out the winner in trade and commerce. Ever since her population went through what appeared to be a spiritual conversion and chose to follow this Y’shua she has been an irritation in our side. Always making moral judgements. Her secret service agents always seem to know what we are up to and expose our plans, and discontents in our own lands are being drawn to this Y’shua too. Israel is only a small country but she is causing us too much trouble. With the exception of Egypt, which is becoming just as bad, the whole Middle East wants to see her demise.”
    “What are your thoughts on all this?”
    “You are right Chou Yi. I have pondered this question myself and I believe that it is something in which we have a common cause. But we need to attack on two fronts; undermine their religion and morality, and overwhelm them with military might. This will show our peoples that this Y’shua belief has no real power or influence. Let us meet again tomorrow after considering some tactics. We have to keep this quiet until we are ready.”
    Each of them was thinking. Antoni knew that, though his expanded European Empire included the whole of the Northern Russian regions through to Vladivostok, Chou Yi resented this and would take any opportunity he could to get the Yakut territories north of Mongolia. It was hard enough keeping his Asiatic peoples under control as it was.
    Because of its association with the cold northern regions, and the chill and gloom that pervaded the nations under his cold and ruthless rule, Antoni was sometimes known also as, ‘The King of the North.’
    Chou Yi’s empire extended well below the equator and included many desert areas. And its peoples lived a joyless life. Although his empire had much, its people had little, and Chou Yi was often called the ‘King of the South.’
     

     
    Meanwhile in Israel itself Rabbi Moesh Jacov was reading the old books. Moesh was a very devout rabbi and follower of Y’shua. He also spent much time praying and listening to the impressions that Eli gave him. Ever since he decided to totally trust Y’shua to change him where he needed changing and to be obedient, willingly, to his love and promptings, Moesh had an inner peace that he had never experienced before. This was in spite of suffering many painful illnesses, false imprisonment when he visited Rome once and losing his wife after only a few years of marriage. Those who knew Moesh felt the love in him and saw in his eyes the acceptance that only suffering can produce. They knew he did not accept any behaviour that dishonoured his God or, for that matter, dishonoured any other person.
    Although now over 80 years old, Moesh had come to be respected by the government of Israel and was a special friend of Judah ben David the Prime Minister.
    Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand against the L ord and against his Anointed One. “Let us break their chains,” they say, “and throw off their fetters...”
    As he read these words he had an uneasy sense of their relevance for Israel at that time. Everything appeared peaceful. Trade was good, and apart from some political rhetoric and sabre rattling among neighbouring states there was nothing serious for the country to be concerned about. Its people felt secure. But Moesh could not get these words from his mind.
