Israel under (constant) attack:


"Investigative Reports on Sderot"

Quotes:


"Missile fire against Sderot and the western Negev began in January 2001. For the past 8 years, over 10,000 rockets have been launched towards Sderot and the western Negev. The Kassam rockets have claimed the lives of 28 Israelis; 9 of which were residents of Sderot, and 3 of whom were children. In addition, over 600 Israeli citizens have been injured and thousands have been psychologically traumatized by the rocket explosions. The rockets have damaged countless homes and properties in Sderot and thewestern Negev.

Sderot is located approximately 2.5 km away from Gaza, and absorbs most of the missiles fired from Gaza. The rockets have forced thousands of Sderot residents to leave the city and relocate elsewhere in Israel.

Katuysha rockets are used to target heavily populated Israeli cities like Ashkelon. Iranian-produced, 122mm Grad Katuysha rockets launched from Gaza have landed countless times in both industrial and residential areas of Ashkelon. In March 2008, a Katyusha rocket hit a busy Ashkelon mall, physically and psychologically wounding over 90 Israelis.

"Four Kassam Rockets From Hamas/Gaza"

Quotes:

Hamas terrorists in Gaza continued their rocket onslaught against Israel over the Sabbath, firing four more Kassams at two different locations.

The Moslem terrorists have fired at least ten rockets at Israel this week.

Two of today's rockets were launched at the Ashkelon district, north of Gaza, and another landed in Shaar HaNegev, northeast of Gaza. A fourth rocket was fired at Shaar HaNegev on Saturday night.

Persecution

"Jews say hate crimes and anti-Israel rage are driving some of them out their Swedish city"

----------

Israel stands firm:

"Israel won't change its policies"

"Israel won't back down in disputes with U.S."

----------

Iran and nuclear weapons:


One quote that seems to come directly from the pages of Ezekiel 38-39:

Even a surgical airstrike against Iran's nuclear installations, he warned, would touch off a much wider conflagration around the Persian Gulf and beyond. "It's not a war the United States needs right now," he said. "It would be disastrous to the wars we're already in [in Afghanistan and Iraq], and it would lead to a fourth war, one between Iran and Israel."

"Column One: Obama's war on Israel"



Obama himself claims that he has launched a political war against Israel in the interest of promoting peace.

If Israel does not accept all four US demands, then the Obama administration will boycott Netanyahu and his senior ministers

Obama’s ultimatum makes clear that mediating peace between Israel and the Palestinians is not a goal he is interested in achieving.

Obama’s new demands follow the months of American pressure that eventually coerced Netanyahu into announcing both his support for a Palestinian state and a 10-month ban on Jewish construction in Judea and Samaria. No previous Israeli government had ever been asked to make the latter concession.

Netanyahu was led to believe that in return for these concessions Obama would begin behaving like the credible mediator his predecessors were. But instead of acting like his predecessors, Obama has behaved like the Palestinians. Rather than reward Netanyahu for taking a risk for peace, Obama has, in the model of Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas, pocketed Netanyahu’s concessions and escalated his demands. This is not the behavior of a mediator. This is the behavior of an adversary.

With the US president treating Israel like an enemy, the Palestinians have no reason to agree to sit down and negotiate. Indeed, they have no choice but to declare war.


And so, in the wake of Obama’s onslaught on Israel’s right to Jerusalem, Palestinian incitement against Israel and Jews has risen to levels not seen since the outbreak of the last terror war in September 2000. And just as night follows day, that incitement has led to violence. This week’s Arab riots from Jerusalem to Jaffa, and the renewed rocket offensive from Gaza are directly related to Obama’s malicious attacks on Israel.


Obama has made clear that he is not Israel’s ally. And for the remainder of his term, he will do everything he can to downgrade US relations with Israel while maintaining his constant genuflection to the likes of Iran, Syria, the Palestinians and Turkey.

A lot of news for one day. Things are progressing just as one would expect, based upon biblical prophecy. As mentioned before - every single prophetic sign that we have been given (no exceptions) are moving forward at breakneck speed.

I can almost hear the trumpet call.
