If, while watching the disturbing events in the Middle East, you are not focusing your attention on Israel – then you are looking in the wrong place.
Once, a very long time ago, I heard someone refer to Israel as the “world’s canary in the coal mine.” That is as apt a description of modern Israel as I have ever heard.
As I watch events in the Muslim countries surrounding Israel deteriorate it looks, for all the world, as if we are racing toward Armageddon. The great armies, just now dipping their toes into the deepening unrest in that region, are unaware that they are playing out a story line written thousands of years ago.
Those of us who have read that storyline know how the story ends and, too, we are aware of the events leading up to the true “Mother of all Battles.”
For the first time in its history, America is on the wrong side. Our President with his loyalty to the world and not to the country that trusted him with the sacred duty to be leader of America and Commander-in-Chief of the mightiest military force in all of history has gone over to the “Dark Side.” He has turned his back on the one nation, which occupies the most important piece of real estate on the globe. He has made it clear he favors the countries, which consider themselves Israel’s most ardent enemies.
Israel knows they, now, stand alone. Just this past weekend, Israel deployed their homegrown antimissile defense system “Iron Dome.” Another anti-missile defense system, a shorter-range system as we understand it, is in the pipeline and scheduled for deployment soon. Israel is getting ready for the coming conflagration when all the Muslim anger, boiling in the crucible of that region, boils over and pours onto their tiny country.
Without America standing with Israel, Israel stands a better than 50-50 chance of being overrun and wiped out as a country. The Israelis have planned for that. The plan is referred to as: “The Samson Option.”
The “Samson Option” is Israel’s strategy of massive nuclear retaliation against “enemies” should its existence as a Jewish state be jeopardized through military attack. The term was inspired by the Biblical figure Samson, who destroyed a Philistine temple, killing himself, and thousands of Philistine enemies. The Samson option is a strategy of last resort retaliation – even if it means Israel ’s own annihilation.
It has been estimated by so-called experts that Israel has at least 400 thermo-nuclear weapons. They can be launched from land, sea, and air. This means that Israel has a second strike option — even if much of the country is destroyed.
Nuclear weapons were viewed by Israel as the ultimate insurer of Israel ’s continued existence. Israel decided, as early as the 1960’s, to build-up its military and achieve absolute conventional military superiority over its enemies, and not place its reliance on nuclear weapons. Israel did this in the hope that they would never have to call on their thermo-nuclear weapons stockpile to rescue their country.
Clearly the danger to Israel’s continued existace has escalated until today Israel finds itself an island of sanity in a sea of madness.
We have warned of Israel ’s “Samson Option” many times before. Like their ancient ancestors on Masada, Israel, it would seem, is prepared to sacrifice itself rather than be driven into slavery — or extinction — by the enemy hordes that surround it.
Sadly, the only country that can prevent those Middle Eastern madmen from breaching the walls of Israel is the United States. But the US is leaderless, at least until 2013, and the man who currently occupies the office of President of the United States has shown no favor towards Israel or its plight.
Today, the entire world is threatened. The Damocles Sword of Islamic terrorism hangs precariously over our heads. Here in America the lives of every man, woman and child have changed since September 11, 2001. And yet, compared to the threat Israelis live under every day Americans live in perfect security and safety.
The canary in the coal mine is telling us the threat is real and it is lethal. The actions of Israel should be the warning the world heeds. But, sadly, it will not be taken seriously until it is too late.
America should be shoring up its relationship with Israel and making it clear to all who threaten that tiny country that Israel’s big brother is back by her side.
But that won’t happen until the electorate of America decides to send Obama into retirement where he can play golf and basketball to his heart’s content and leave the job of leading the free world to someone who actually knows how.
Israel does not exist because of the actions of Americans isrealis or their respective countries. They exist because God has given His Word that Israel shall occupy and inhabit the land He has provided them and for His Word’s sake He shall fulfill His covenant with the,. For us gentiles that is a reminder that God is absolute and final and incapable of breaking His Word.
So whether Isarel has nukes or the will to use them is unimportant. Their defense and proetction is sure and absolute so says God. Now what is to happen? Well, for starters they are not occupying God;s land only a small sliver. Israel is about to expand and inhabit the entire deed. God has promised!
First of all..Obama did not “go” to the “dark” side…He came from the pit of hell itself. He has never been a friend of israel, and anyone who thinks he is, is only deluding themselves. True American’s are standing with Israel..no matter what! Remember, it is not the United States that is Israels’ defender, but Almighty God, if Israel puts everthing into His hands. The United States military is currently spending a great deal of money, and resources, in teaching the troops how to become Sodomites! The leaders have no time for military operations, but bringing the United States down, is their only objective! When Israel finds the courage to do what is necessary, (nuke ALL Israel’s enemies), The United States military and civilian leaders are among them! Real Americans love Israel!
Sadly, I was already aware that the US has turned it’s back on Israel. As an American I am both grieving the president’s decision yet am elated that the end-time prophecies are coming to pass.
Pray for an Israel supporter for our next president.
God is in charge. His will is being brought to fruition, and the world is not able to change it. Repent for the time is at hand, turn to God and His Son, Jesus Christ, and avoid the tribulation to come.
Never a truer word spoken Mr. Longstreet!
The final act, the forth quarter, the last two minutes of this biblical bout is about to get underway. The players: Almighty God, his war angles and his saints, the Christians–the winning side. The opposing dark side: Satan and his deceiving defeated demon force. The prize is man and the ruling of all nations, as a one-world-government. For millennia, Satan has been deceiving mankind into believing his lies while corrupting the world with his immorality, idolatry–worshiping foreign gods and greed. Satan hates God and knows his time is short, but can only attack God’s creation…man, deceiving and corrupting him with sins against God. His primary targets are the Jews and the nations rooted in true Christianity. Satan’s goal is to deceive the nations of the word by turning them against the One True Living God. But before Israel’s attack, America must first be judged and incapacitated, as God will use her enemies to judge her sins of wickedness.
Global war is the reward of worldwide sin, as the creator of this world is holy and just in his judgments. America has known the truth, but has adopted the lies of Satan instead of abiding in the laws of God, as once did. The good news, the blinds have been removed from the eyes of the Jews, concerning the truth about Christ Jesus as the true Messiah! Those with open hearts will see and recognize Christ Jesus as the Messiah. Those who refuse to believe will be left behind to go through the Great Tribulation as described in Revelations.
Pray for Israel’s peace and for America to repent for her wickedness and return to God before she is judged and destroyed!
L.P.
“God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enimies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, he lay down as a lion, and a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.” (Num 24:8,9)
America and all the nations be warned, “He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.” (Ps 121:4)
God has promised in His word the destruction of the enemies of Israel. See Isaiah 17 concerning Damascus. Isaiah 19 concerning Egypt. Ezekiel 25 concerning Jordan and notice God uses His people Israel to carry out His judgment. “And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom (Jordan) by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my fury; and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.” (Ez 25:14)
We could go on and on, but sufice it to say God is in control and His plan for Israel and the nations will be carried out to the letter.
Pray for the peace of Jeusalem.
AMERICA’S LEADERSHIP NEED TO BE IN THE HANDS OF A LEADER WHO ‘KNOWS’, AND WHO ‘CARES’ ABOUT OUR MIGHTY NATION, AND WHO IS WILLING, AND ABLE, TO SEEK THE MIND OF OUR MIGHTY LORD, OUR ALMIGHTY GOD.
Bible prophesy is being full-filled right before our eyes. It is scary, yet exciting. God tells us when you see these things come to pass..Look up, because our redemption is near. God nor Israel needs the U.S. help. God doesn’t want the Jewish people to depend of America for their protection…He wants His children to depend on Him.
I, too, am grieved that this administration has turned its back on Israel. It is shameful. I neither voted for nor support anything that Obama touts because I know him to be a liar and a deceiver. He uses language to camouflage evil (can’t call a terrorist a terrorist, war is whatever nonsensical name he comes up with, etc.) He sides with homosexuals and encourages abortion – a woman’s right to chose to murder her helpless unborn baby – all designed to deaden one’s conscience. The ignorant and uninformed lap up everything that he says. Woe to them all because judgment day is coming and it is closer than we think. All will be held to account for their deeds. This includes voting into office this ungodly man who has systematically dismantled the foundations of this country.
Obama claims to be a Christian. Another lie. I wish I could interview him and ask why the White House had all statues of Jesus covered before he spoke at Catholic University and Georgetown Univ. His lying lips cannot tell the truth. That would expose who he really is – spawn of Satan – and he knows it. He also states that he doesn’t believe in hell and doesn’t know about heaven; but he does believes that there are many ways to get to heaven. He is in apostasy. The Bible clearly warns us not to be deceived in the last days. This man is a deceiver.
I don’t know if America will recover. Time is short and by the time this President is hopefully booted out of office, the damage will have been done. The infrastructure of socialism has been laid. We are not listed in the Book of Revelation. Maybe we have been destroyed or maybe we have been so emaciated by our debt that we cannot help anyone or partake in Israel’s defense. Only God knows. But rest assured that God will preserve Israel and those who want to annihilate her will themselves be annihilated by the very means they threaten. God will see to it. Amen. Maranantha Lord Jesus.
History is replete with examples that YHWH always keeps His promises. Every nation or individual that ever betrayed or raised their hands against GOD’s Chosen People, the Jews, were obliterated, enslaved, or relegated to perpetual third-world status. YHWH promised Abraham that He would bless those bless him, and curse them that curse him (see Genesis 12:3). Das Furher Beast Obama has made the biggest mistake that any leader of a nation could make. By cursing, betraying, and abandoning Israel, he has assured not only his own soon personal destruction, but has, because he is the federal head of the United States, guaranteed our final downfall as well. Even so, come, EL-Adonai Yeshua H’Messhiach Ben-YHWH. Revelation 12:11
What a great article!! I, among many other Americans, am very saddened, ashamed, and embarrassed by our President’s seemingly indifferent attitude towards the only true Ally we have in the entire Middle East! What a shameful defection on his part; and what a sad day it is when the vast majority of Americans don’t really seem to care either – they’re more interested in getting more “toys”, watching sports, and worshipping Hollywood stars! They are blind to the fact that even here in American there is an ugly, rising tide of antisemitism and blame that is being placed on Israel for being “in the way of Peace”! But we Christians have “read the end of the story” and we know that our mighty Lord will triumph over all of Israel’s enemies!! Hallelujah! “Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus”!
It raises my spirits to see such ardent and strong support for Israel in the USA, I am an Israeli who chose to come here after I paid my debt to the country and did 3 years of IDF. Although I’ve been here for a very long time, I can never forget my roots, yet I love this country just as much and hurt to see how this so called impostor president is destroying it from the inside according to a grand plan, that is being carried out by the puppet, our so called president, who is nothing of the kind, he is the biggest fraud that has ever been perpetrated upon the American people, he was not born here, and neither did he grow up here, he does not have any feelings for this country, he knows not what it means to be American, all he knows is hatred, and hatred is the dark side, and that is where he came from and that is where he will return. I only hope that we can show and prove that he is not American born and that we will have a leader who will have the guts and the stomach to put this fraudulent impostor behind bars where he belongs for the rest of his life for lying to us and for trying to destroy our country. About Israel, they will do whatever will be necessary to protect their population, unlike our fed- g-ment who leaves our borders open for every terrorist to come in and try to kill us. I say try because if they come here I have two very good friends who will always protect me – they are Smith and Wesson, 9mm. and they spew very hot lead when necessary. I for one will not go alone, I will take as many as possible with me, because they are coming and they will attack us from within, the terrorists are already here, they are only waiting for the right moment, so be ready and be prepared to meet then head on, because we will have here just as bad a fight as Israel will have over there, don’t forget people there are around 5 million muslims in this country and at lest 60% of them will turn on us and try to kill us, it won’t be easy but eventually we will prevail, because just like the Israelis, we are Americans, and Americans are good people, and God is always on the side of the good, so he’ll always be on our side, on Israel’s side and on the USA side, because we are the ones who will prevail and come out victorious, SO HELP US GOD.
The psalm 83 and Isiah 17 is about to be full filled along with EZK 38 Gog and Magog war, look Up For Jesus is near.
I love Israel I love God and I love this article thanks alot.
I really wish we had leaders who could see clearly and understand what God wants not just what we want.
