Lou, you ignored the part about love.
Dark and loathsome has never been used in reference to Judah in Jerusalem, rather Joseph in America. (between 400-1400+ AD). But, along with that is also a promise that Joseph will blossom as a rose. That day is now. So, lets learn from the past and prepare for the future, (but) enjoy the present.

The Stick of Judah referred to by Ezekiel is the Bible. The Stick of Joseph is the Book of Mormon. As the Books come together, so do the people. Blend. Why are "some" people afraid to open the book?When you ask for clarification are you looking for a trap or for understanding? Understanding brings people together.
No matter what our mental state, it can improve. The one true and living God responds to the degree of our need. See, I can believe in the One True and Living God, just like you do. I am not anti-semitic, nor do I promote ideas that encourage anti-semitism. If you wish to disect everything I write that's fine, but don't call me anti-semitic. I love your people. Jesus loves them too. Is He anti-semitic?
