REPENTANCE FROM A CHRISTIAN LEBANESE STANDING IN THE GAP FOR ARAB NATIONS FOR THE EXILE AND THEFT OF 850,000-900,000 JEWS FROM ARAB LANDS IN 1948 AND ONWARDS
By Lilian Schmid, Prayer Coordinator, Prayerstrategy.org
As a Born-Again Christian Lebanese from my father’s side and Syrian from my mother’s side, I stand in the Gap, and I ask forgiveness on behalf of my Government and other Phoenicians and Arabic nations.
I also repent on behalf of all Lebanese, Syrians and other Arabic nations the way have treated the Jews and stole their properties and inheritance.
After the establishment of Israel in 1948, many Arab governments enacted policies that led to confiscation of Jewish property, revocation of citizenship, and forced exile. Hundreds of thousands of Jews from Iraq, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Libya, and other nations were displaced, often leaving behind homes, businesses, and cultural heritage that had existed for centuries.
A repentance prayer or declaration on behalf of those governments, here’s a structured draft you could adapt for your prayer guides or communal use:
Repentance Declaration on Behalf of Arab Governments
Acknowledgment of Wrongdoing We acknowledge before God and history that Jewish communities in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, and across the Arab nations were unjustly stripped of their homes, properties, and livelihoods. They were uprooted from lands where they had lived for generations, contributing to culture, commerce, and society.
Confession of Sin We confess the sins of theft, injustice, and expulsion committed by governments and authorities who denied Jewish people their rightful place and dignity. We recognize the pain caused by these actions, both to individuals and to the collective Jewish people.
Repentance and Turning On behalf of these nations, we repent for the arrogance, hatred, and violence that led to such grievous wrongs. We turn away from the spirit of antisemitism and hostility, and we ask for forgiveness from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Appeal for Healing We pray for healing of historical wounds, restoration of dignity, and reconciliation between Jews and Arabs. May the injustices of the past be redeemed by acts of justice, mercy, and truth in the present and future. Commitment to Change
We commit to stand against antisemitism in all its forms, to Honor the Jewish people, and to seek peace and blessing between nations.
We intercede and Pray for modern Arab governments to acknowledge past wrongs and pursue reconciliation. • Declare: Speak blessing over Jewish communities worldwide, especially those who were displaced. • Stand: Commit to resisting antisemitism in all its forms and to honouring the Jewish people. • Release: Proclaim Isaiah 61:7 — “Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance.”
Closing Blessing May the God of peace heal ancient wounds, redeem stolen inheritances, and release His blessing over both Jews and Arabs. May nations be transformed by His justice and mercy.

NEW SCHOOLS ANTISEMITISM PAGE ON IFII WEBSITE
There is now a dedicated page on our website to this project which has been going just over a year and we have 3 units ready to roll out across Australia – Grade 1 and 2, Grade 3 and 4 and Grade 5 and 6. Positive reviews are coming in from teachers and we are approaching schools to pilot the units in term 1 next year. Are you a teacher or parent who is interested? Please contact us.
Antisemitism Colab in Sydney Dec 1-2 co-hosted by Australian Jewish Funders and the Dor Foundation. Very strategic event and they emphasized the need for collaboration.
DEC 6 2024 EVENTS CANBERRA MILLERS PICTURED WITH ISRAEL AMBASSADOR TO AUSTRALIA THE HON. AMIR MAIMON AS HE DEDICATES A PLAQUE ALONG WITH THE GERMAN AMBASSADOR TO WILLIAM COOPER IN COMMEMORATION OF HIS PROTEST AGAINST THE PERSECUTION OF JEWS AT KRISTALLNACHT. AFTERWARDS, NORMAN MAKES A DECLARATION IN HIS FIGHT AGAINST ANTISEMITISM OUTSIDE PARLIAMENT HOUSE. THE AMBASSADOR’S GESTURE GOT LITTLE PUBLICITY BECAUSE THE ADASS YISRAEL SYNAGOGUE IN MELBOURNE WAS SADLY FIREBOMBED THE SAME DAY.
DEC 6 IS THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE PROTEST ABORIGINAL WILLIAM COOPER LED IN AUSTRALIA AFTER KRISTALLNACHT, THE START OF THE HOLOCAUST.
The Nazis shatter glass and shatter the lives of European Jews at Kristallnacht, the start of the Holocaust. An Australian Aboriginal, William Cooper, leads the campaign for civil rights for his people who are dying of poverty and mistreatment around him. 1938; two worlds, far apart. Cut to the core after Kristallnacht, can he do anything to stop it?
Described as Australia’s Martin Luther King, Cooper leads the Australian Aborigines’ League on a protest to the German Consulate in Melbourne. Would the Third Reich pour out its wrath on them? Would they make a difference?
A Chair of Resistance to the Holocaust was named in honour of Cooper at Yad Vashem. His grandson, Alf Turner, becomes passionate about fulfilling his grandfather’s unfinished business and taking the protest to Berlin itself. How will he be received?
This true story will inspire you to stand up and be counted and to make a difference.

Gofundme for Schools Antisemitism Education
There is currently no dedicated, age-appropriate antisemitism education in Australian primary schools—only optional anti racism or holocaust or multicultural education. Please help us while we continue to develop this and work on its implementaton. See HERE
Our expert curriculum writer Shoshana Linnane has developed 10-week modules for Grades 1-2 and 5-6. These lessons use the story of a 7-year-old Jewish refugee girl from the kindertransport during World War II to help children understand what it means to be displaced, excluded, or vulnerable. The modules foster empathy, compassion, and respect for diversity through activities like art, music, and drama, and align with the national curriculum. We want all children to grow up in safe, inclusive communities where they learn to treat others fairly and without discrimination.
If you believe in building a future where every child feels valued and racism has no place, please consider supporting our fundraiser. Even a small contribution or sharing this opportunity to help would make a difference.
Please get involved! We need your help!
We would love to connect with you and help you support Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, working against calls for its destruction and the genocide of its people. These calls are advancing at great pace since October 7. Indigenous Friends of Israel formed in July 2017 because of concerns over Australia’s policy towards Israel. Since then we have gone international as antisemitism is international and isan ancient hatred. The forces standing against Israel also oppose Western and/or Judeo-Christian values which have helped us achieve a society with social cohesion and the rule of law.
Please help us take a stand against antisemitism, and for a community where all are valued and safe. There are many opportunities to use your passion, gifting and skills as avolunteer whether you are a person of faith or not. United we stand and divided we fall. Please complete the form to volunteer.
Are you good at creating or sharing social media, fundraising, administration, film and video making, government advocacy, newsletters, speaking, representing a geographical area, organising zoom meetings or do you have other giftings or talents that you can use to bless the Lord, the Jewish people, and Israel.

BOOMERANG FOR PM NETANYAHU
You can just see the scripture on the left of the boomerang of Amos 9:11-15 and on the right of Psalm 122. These will be made bolder. Our congregation is called the Tabernacle of David and we believe in the restoration of the Tabernacle of David, the throne of David on which Messiah Jesus will sit and the restoration of Israel and Jerusalem to the Jewish people for eternity so that Bible prophecy and God’s plan can be fulfilled.
Netanyahu’s speech to the United Nations in 2013 included verses from Amos 9. He said: “In our time the Biblical prophecies are being realized. As the prophet Amos said, they shall rebuild ruined cities and inhabit them. They shall plant vineyards and drink their wine. They shall till gardens and eat their fruit. And I will plant them upon their soil never to be uprooted again. Ladies and gentlemen, the people of Israel have come home never to be uprooted again.” —Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu
The quotation above is how Benjamin Netanyahu concluded his speech on October 1, 2013 at the United Nations General Assembly in New York. Netanyahu’s speech was a warning to the world re Iran’s nuclear weapons. We think he will appreciate this scripture being on the boomerang gifted to him. You can be a part of that by helping us get there.
Psalm 122 tells us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and Psalm 122:2-4 says”
2 Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together. 4 That is where the tribes go up— the tribes of the Lord— to praise the name of the LordMay the tribes of the nations as well as the tribes of Israel praise the name of the Lord and have their feet standing in its gates.
We have timed our visit for the Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem which we support and hoped to attend anyway on 3-4 Nov. This means that Indigenous representatives can sign the Declaration and form a delegation to present the Declaration and the boomerang with Munganbana Norman.
We give God the glory for His hand on Israel, the apple of His eye and we pray for the harvest of souls for the kingdom of God all over the Middle East. The day the hostages were returned, Oct 13, is the Jewish festival of Hoshana Rabbah which means the great Hoshana with hoshana meaning SAVE NOW.” How prophetic was that?
We welcome home all living hostages to the loving arms of their families who have fought so hard for their release. We pray that the bodies of those killed by Hamas and other Gazans will all be released soon. It will be painful for their families but at least they will have some closure. We pray healing and comfort.
To all those who fought in the IDF we say thanks for preserving the beloved nation Israel, and to those whose families did not see their loved ones return alive, our love and comfort extends to you and to those wounded. May your recovery be speedy.
To the brave Israelis and the Jewish diaspora worldwide including Australia, who have suffered so much also, we also extend our love and say you are not alone. We stand with you.
May this ceasefire, fragile though it is, hold, and bring a long peace. May Gazans turn from their anti-Israel anti-Jewish hate and build a healthy, peaceful, prosperous society.
HOSTAGE FAMILIES VISIT AUSTRALIA NOV 2023
Norman and Barbara joined a rally in support of the hostage families who visited Australia. This photo was at Bondi Beach, Sydney 30.11.23. They also attended a rally in support of the hostages at the visit of the families to Parliament House Canberra. Barbara was also invited to light candles with the families of the hostages at an event at the Central Synagogue Sydney.
There were moving scenes at Hostage Square in Tel Aviv as the 20 living hostages were released. The massacre occurred on the Jewish holiday of Simchat Torah on Oct 7, a time of joy turned into tragedy. Amazingly, they were returned on Oct 13, the last day of Sukkot, also called Hoshana Rabbah which turned into Simchat Torah at sundown. Israel can rejoice again through its tears.
There were moving speeches at the Knesset on Oct 13 as well with President Trump and his team in attendance. Prime Minister Netanyahu used this quote from Jeremiah 31:16-17: This is what the Lord says:
“Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” declares the Lord. “They will return from the land of the enemy. So there is hope for your descendants,” declares the Lord.
We are mindful however, that there can be false peace and Israel features in end-time battles.

A Declaration of Solidarity with Israel from the Indigenous and Diverse Communities of the Pacific Rim
We recognize the Jewish people as the Indigenous stewards of the land of Israel, their ancestral homeland, where their history, culture, and spiritual legacy have been rooted for millennia. This indigeneity resonates deeply with our own connections to land, tradition, and resilience, forging a sacred bond between our communities and the Jewish people. We honor Israel not only as a homeland but as a beacon of morality, kindness, and grace—a nation that exemplifies the highest standards of humanity in the face of unparalleled challenges.
Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Rim not only have a shared indigeneity with Jewish people but the shared experience of tribal societies, close family relations, attachment to land and closeness to nature. We also have shared experiences of colonisation, dispersion, ethnic cleansing, persecution, discrimination, marginalisation, trauma and the need for resilience.
Despite this, our cultures and spirituality remain strong. We applaud the Jewish people that they have been able to retain their religion and culture, revive their language and decolonise their land with the rebirth of the state of Israel in 1948 forming the only democracy in the Middle East.

SUCCESSFUL MEETINGS WITH EDUCATION AUTHORITIES
We have engaged recently with the Dor Foundation and the staff of Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism who are both very interested in our education program to combat antisemitism so we will be working with them in future.
Norman and Barbara have have continued to have a number of successful meetings with state and commonwealth education authorities over our School Antisemitism Education Project. We are in the process of discussions with a number of schools as well.
So please if you know any primary schools that would be interested in becoming part of a pilot program to test it before it gets rolled out nationally, please let us know. Also, if you know of any funding options, please let us know as we are all working voluntarily including our expert curriculum writer Shoshana Linnane.

We have some exciting news in that Pastor Norman plans to hand the Declaration (which is the topic of this zoom seminar) personally to Prime Minister Netanyahu in Jerusalem if it can be arranged. He plans to also gift him an extra large boomerang which will have Australian Aboriginal and Israeli motifs on it, in a separate project, to Netanyahu at the same time. If you can help with finances for this project, it would be much appreciated. We hope to time it for the Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem meeting in Jerusalem 4-5 Nov 2025.
The zoom shown here is Part 2 of 29.9.25 AEST because the recording stopped after 10mins and was turned on again, meaning we have Part 1 and Part 2.
Speakers Norman Miller, Aboriginal Australian, Co-founder of Indigenous Friends of Israel International Foundation, Dr Isaac Balbin, President Lions of Zion for 29.9.25 AEST with many wonderful commentators.
Norman and Isaac also spoke at North American zoom session joined by Ps Charles Huang, Taiwanese-American, Founder & CEO of Roots and Branches International. Commentary by Nyunggai Warren Mundine, Australian Aboriginal businessman and Chair CPAC. This is the LINK.

26 OCTOBER — NATIONAL RALLY Australians Against Antisemitism 📍 Across the Nation – Stand United! 💙✡ One People. One Voice. No Hate.
A Declaration of Solidarity with Israel from the Indigenous and Diverse Communities of the Pacific Rim
We recognize the Jewish people as the Indigenous stewards of the land of Israel, their ancestral homeland, where their history, culture, and spiritual legacy have been rooted for millennia. This indigeneity resonates deeply with our own connections to land, tradition, and resilience, forging a sacred bond between our communities and the Jewish people. We honor Israel not only as a homeland but as a beacon of morality, kindness, and grace—a nation that exemplifies the highest standards of humanity in the face of unparalleled challenges.
Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Rim not only have a shared indigeneity with Jewish people but the shared experience of tribal societies, close family relations, attachment to land and closeness to nature. We also have shared experiences of colonisation, dispersion, ethnic cleansing, persecution, discrimination, marginalisation, trauma and the need for resilience.
Despite this, our cultures and spirituality remain strong. We applaud the Jewish people that they have been able to retain their religion and culture, revive their language and decolonise their land with the rebirth of the state of Israel in 1948 forming the only democracy in the Middle East.

Norman and Barbara have have continued to have a number of successful meetings with state and commonwealth education authorities over our School Antisemitism Education Project. We are in the process of discussions with a number of schools as well. So please if you know any primary schools that would be interested in becoming part of a pilot program to test it before it gets rolled out nationally, please let us know. Also, if you know of any funding options, please let us know as we are all working voluntarily including our expert curriculum writer Shoshana Linnane.
Gofundme for Schools Antisemitism Education
There is currently no dedicated, age-appropriate antisemitism education in Australian primary schools—only optional anti racism or holocaust or multicultural education. Please help us while we continue to develop this and work on its implementaton. See HERE
Our expert curriculum writer Shoshana Linnane has developed 10-week modules for Grades 1-2 and 5-6. These lessons use the story of a 7-year-old Jewish refugee girl from the kindertransport during World War II to help children understand what it means to be displaced, excluded, or vulnerable. The modules foster empathy, compassion, and respect for diversity through activities like art, music, and drama, and align with the national curriculum. We want all children to grow up in safe, inclusive communities where they learn to treat others fairly and without discrimination.
If you believe in building a future where every child feels valued and racism has no place, please consider supporting our fundraiser. Even a small contribution or sharing this opportunity to help would make a difference.
Please get involved! We need your help!
We would love to connect with you and help you support Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, working against calls for its destruction and the genocide of its people. These calls are advancing at great pace since October 7. Indigenous Friends of Israel formed in July 2017 because of concerns over Australia’s policy towards Israel. Since then we have gone international as antisemitism is international and isan ancient hatred. The forces standing against Israel also oppose Western and/or Judeo-Christian values which have helped us achieve a society with social cohesion and the rule of law.
Please help us take a stand against antisemitism, and for a community where all are valued and safe. There are many opportunities to use your passion, gifting and skills as avolunteer whether you are a person of faith or not. United we stand and divided we fall. Please complete the form to volunteer.
Are you good at creating or sharing social media, fundraising, administration, film and video making, government advocacy, newsletters, speaking, representing a geographical area, organising zoom meetings or do you have other giftings or talents that you can use to bless the Lord, the Jewish people, and Israel.

Hope and Victory over Evil, the Assassination of Charlie Kirk by Ps Barbara Miller 13.9.25 https://youtu.be/SwpYZwiS5rM
When I prayed at the end of this message for viewers to open their hearts and receive Jesus as their Saviour and fill that void or hole or God-space in their lives, Judy Miller who was present, saw a vision of the book of life in heaven with names being entered into it so I thank God for that. She said that when I go to heaven, people will tell me that they are there because of me.
I think this is even much more so with Charlie Kirk who opened the door of heaven for many people while he was alive so their names would be written in the book of life (eternal life). After his death, his message will bring many many more to turn their lives around and accept Jesus.
John 12.24 New Living Translation “I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives.” Charlie loved God passionately, loved Israel passionately, loved his wife and children and nation passionately and promoted traditional Judeo-Christian values which are now counter-cultural.
He founded Turning Point and changed the lives of many young people. His death will be a turning point. While many on the left mocked, others on the left said they could not continue on the left after this callous response. Many wept and said they would follow in Charlie’s footsteps. Some commentators have said this is an issue beyond left and right wing but is good versus evil and so it is. Charlie ran the good race and won and is now with Jesus. HIs wife Erika, despite her grief, has vowed to carry on, saying her cries would become a battle cry. We pray for his wife and children, family and friends and also for the family of the killer who will be grappling with this tragedy.
CAIRNS FESTIVAL PARADE MUNGANBANA ABORIGINAL ART GALLERY FLOAT
Munganbana Norman likes to put a float in the Cairns Festival Parade each year and this year on Sept 30, the Lions of Zion from Melbourne joined us on the float. Norman called the float Let’s Dance and made a large Dancing Brolga and a large Dancing Dolphin. You can’t see the Dolphin in the photo but you can see a large Nemo or Clownfish. Norman’s family helped him again this year decorating the float.
The vision Norman had for the float was to sing and/or play the music of Christian songs and songs with good values over the city where thousands lined the streets to watch and wave. Norman particularly wanted to sing the song Jerusalema over the city, which he did to honour the holy city which is the throne Jesus will rule from for 1,000 years.
We look forward to the heavenly Jerusalem coming down over the earthly Jerusalem. Norman had asked some African dancers to join us behind the float because Jerusalema is in African but they didn’t make it. What was higly significant is that Lions of Zion from Melbourne – Isaac, Joshua and Anthony (pictured) and their families joined us which was wonderful.
