Israel & Friends/Foes

Pray for the peace of Israel

First of all, pray for Israel and that the Lord would comfort the hurting and draw hearts to know Jesus as their Messiah.

Next, and less importantly, some analysis:

• U.S. and Russia both test emergency alert systems 3 days before Hamas attacks Israel
  • There is a surprising amount of intel coordination between Russia and NATO
  • Remember those fake air-raid sirens, and how we notified Russia, to be sure they wouldn't take out Biden while he was visiting?
  • Israel left in the dark... Thanks friend!
• U.S. frees up $6 Billion to Iran days before attack
  • On one hand: Iran funds Hamas, helped plan the attack, and may get sanctioned
  • On the other hand: U.S. Gov public briefing claims Iran was not involved
  • Sure: "Honest, they haven't spent a penny!" (No close ties between officials either!)
• U.S., E.U., and G7 nations surprisingly declare public support for Israel
  • Then E.U. backtracks...
• Hamas possibly used US weapons from Ukraine in Israel attacks
  • Hamas thanks Ukraine for selling them weapons

    • How do we know this is true?  Because it was fact checked by a Facebook Third-Party Fact-Checking Partner and Member of the #CoronavirusFacts Alliance, and then was immediately blamed on Russia

• U.S. sending our most modern carrier group into the Mediterranean
  • First full deployment of the US Navy's newest supercarrier
  • Another carrier, and Britain could deploy Navy ships
    

Some background

Our spiritual enemy wants to destroy the Jewish people, in a ridiculous attempt to thwart the plan of God.  From Haman to Hitler, there have been attempts to "play both sides" of conflicts and squash the Jews in the middle.  That playbook will continue right into the Great Tribulation.  The Antichrist will strengthen a peace covenant with Israel and allow them to build the Third Temple, all the while plotting to desecrate the Temple and in a final (failed) conflict, destroy Israel with the use of all military power on earth (the battle of Armageddon).  Ultimately it's against God, by touching the apple of His eye, but He will quickly bring it to an end.

Between now and then, some geopolitical movements can be inferred:

• Russia will be drawn into a position of leading a coalition (including Iran and Turkey) against Israel.
• Europe and the G7 nations (modern Roman empire) will be the core of the Antichrist's government.
• Israel will be key in enabling the Antichrist's rise to power and will receive peace and the Third Temple in return.
  
• The Antichrist will appear messianic to Israel, while plotting Israel's destruction.

Serious questions

• What is the real motive behind this sudden panicked rush to move top U.S. military forces toward Israel?
  • Can we suddenly trust Biden to be a true friend to Israel?  Sounds like they're trying too hard...
  • Are U.S. forces in the region to protect Israel or to keep Israel from feeling threatened by Iran and initiating a first-strike?  In other words, is the U.S. protecting Israel or Iran?
• Is the World Government (i.e. U.N., E.U., NATO, G7) really siding with Israel or is there an ulterior motive?
  • The U.S. says it backs Israel but gives Billions to Iran.  Russia says it has a special relationship with Israel but they are allied with Iran and Russia is Iran's largest buyer of military equipment.
  • Is the Ukraine conflict really about reducing Russian global power or about coercing a Russian-lead attack on Israel?
    
  • Is a World Government emerging, with one hand supporting Israel, and with the other, aiding Israel's destruction?

What do you think?

It would not be the first time the father of lies has "played both sides" to eliminate the Jews (but it may be close to his last).
