“We are now all seeing satanic evil. It is unprecedented in our lives. God is allowing this so that people will turn to Him. Ask Jesus into your heart now -- and ask Him to lead you through this. He WILL. This is the reason you were born. It is the meaning of your life.” – Eric Metaxas
ISRAEL
Israeli first responder describes what he saw:
"…the father, with one eye taken out; the mother, they cut off one of her breasts; the 7 year-old boy, they cut off several of his fingers; the girl, they chopped off her foot; and they set a table with food in the middle, and ate.”
Victor Davis Hanson gives a revealing analysis of this situation:
It is not really a war. This ‘war’ did not begin with a military assault. It is nothing like the Six-Day and Yom Kippur Wars, or indeed most other conflicts. It broke out with a surprise assault by between 1,500 and 2,500 gunmen of the Hamas death squads.
During peace and on a holiday, they entered Israel in a long-planned hit operation to murder civilians and take captives, focusing specifically on butchering the most vulnerable—the elderly, women, children, and infants—and in the most grotesque fashion imaginable.
Their desire was to be as savagely pre-civilizational as possible—the more macabre the manner of murder, the more fertile their sophistry that they were reduced to such repulsive blood lust by their worse “oppressors”. It would be as though gruesome Mafia hitmen had claimed they were forced to become animal-like due to even worse systemic anti-Italian bias. Even the Mexican cartels do not claim they are led to behead because of the injustice of the Mexican government.
By preplanned design, women were raped, and children and infants were burned alive, bound and executed, and (yes) beheaded. The dead were often mutilated. Some 1,400 Israelis were butchered, the vast majority civilians. Some 3,500-4,500 were wounded.
Hamas never planned to stage a preemptive war against the Israeli military. Its only agenda was to send killers to unprotected villages to murder the unarmed as they slept—in the manner of Nazi Einsatzgruppen and other mobile death squads on the Eastern Front. Almost immediately they counted on using hostages, human shields, and the media to avoid any accounting from the IDF.
To distract from the murder mission, Hamas launched some 5,000 rockets—all intended as terror weapons to strike civilians, in the fashion of the V-1 and V-2 attacks on London. What followed is the most asymmetrical “war” in memory. The IDF is the only military in the world told to be “proportionate” in its use of retaliatory force—not the U.S. after 9/11, and not Ukraine after February 24, 2022. No Arab army or terrorist cadre has ever waged a war under the rules of “proportionality”.
WAR
“Looks like we’re actually going to war with Iran.” – Tucker Carlson
The largest fleet of warships NATO has ever assembled is gathering in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. In addition to two US carrier strike groups and an amphibious assault force, several other warships from other NATO nations are joining its ranks.
China deployed six warships to the Middle East. Israel has put an indefinite delay on their ground invasion of Gaza after China Navy Fleet shows up in the region.
This is a “powder keg.” The Russia-Ukraine war pales in comparison to this situation. WWIII could literally ensue. This also smacks of a last ditch effort to interfere in the 2024 election.
And this Administration seems to encouraging war and sympathizing with Iran:
"You literally had three Iranian spies working in senior positions directly around the U.S. government. One of them, as far as we know, remains a Chief of Staff in the Department of Defense to this day with access to classified documents." – Sen. Ted Cruz
Gen. Douglas Macgregor describes the potential sequence to WW3. “Attacks on Iran could bring in Russia. Ultimately Russian involvement would lead to China coming in. All long-planned.”
“PALESTINE”
The propaganda is intensifying. This is an example of backwards, upside down, twisted “truth.” In an “An Open Letter from Palestinian Christians to Western Church Leaders and Theologians,” they had these things to say:
“Israeli occupation of Palestine … Israel’s ongoing indiscriminate attacks on Gaza … Israel’s systemic oppression of the Palestinians … ethnic cleansing of Palestine … oppressive and racist military occupation that constitutes the crime of apartheid … Israel’s iron fist have regrettably emboldened extreme voices of some Palestinian groups to resort to militancy and violence as a response to oppression … dehumanizing Palestinians and whitewashing their suffering … Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip that killed thousands of Palestinians … entrenched colonial discourse that has weaponized the Bible to justify the ethnic cleansing … Zionist theologies and interpretations that have legitimized the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the vilification and dehumanization of Palestinians … complicit in the rise of the anti-Palestinian hate speech … vast majority of Palestinian Christians do not condone violence—not even by the powerless and occupied … we hold western church leaders and theologians who rally behind Israel’s wars accountable for their theological and political complicity in the Israeli crimes against the Palestinians …
Do you see the twisted bias? You see portended in this letter that Israel is at fault … to be blamed – for defending themselves, that is.
It was posted on Change.org. This site is a seriously Left-leaning website and, despite the “.org”, it is seriously for-profit organization. It focuses on social change activism, to influence public opinion Leftward. The site capitalized on President Barack Obama’s slogan of “Change” to build its name after his election in 2008.
Anyone who argues that Israel took the “Palestinian’s” land fails to understand history. “Systemic oppression, ethnic cleansing, occupation, colonial, apartheid” are all buzzwords and lingo of the Left. It is an attempt to paint Israel as the evil oppressor, and the “Palestinians” as the sad victims.
To anyone who suggests that Israel’s land belongs to the “Palestinians,” ask them what was the official language of Palestine; what was the Constitution of Palestine; ask them what was the official currency of Palestine; ask them where was the historic capital of Palestine. They did not, and never did, exist as a nation.
In 1948, when the Jews returned to Israel, the “Palestinian people” were nomads that had been displaced, as outcasts, by the surrounding Arab nations. Today, none of the 22 Arab nations will take these people into their countries. Jordan and Egypt just reaffirmed that last week.
Yet, Israel offered to take them in; they offered them the opportunity to live in, and benefit from, the country of Israel. They chose to remain aliens of Israel, to antagonize the re-born Nation of Israel. They chose terrorism over peace.

1917 AD Britain Mandate gave the Jews “the Land”
1948 AD The State of Israel was reborn
In 1917, Britain issued the Balfour Declaration establishing the Jewish homeland. On May 14, 1948, the State of Israel came into being again. In 1967, Jerusalem was once again under Jewish control.
Israel maintained its independence after the 1973 Yom Kippur War, and Jerusalem was reaffirmed as Israel's capital with "The Basic Law: Jerusalem, the Capital of Israel," passed in 1980.
CURSED LAND
The United Nations was created, in part, to protect Jews after the Nazi holocaust, and one of the first acts of the U.N. was to recognize the State of Israel. Despite this, the U.N. Security Council threatened to divide Jerusalem and take a third of Israel to create a "Palestinian" State.
Lamb & Lion Ministry tells the story. Over the centuries following Rome’s expulsion of the Jews in 70 AD, the Promised Land fell under a curse. Known as Palestine (the Latinized version of the name given to the Holy Land by the Romans), it was controlled by a succession of foreign powers — including Christian crusaders and Islamic caliphates. By the 15th century, the Ottoman Empire obliterated the 1000-year Christian Byzantine Empire and began to rule Palestine with a heavy hand.
God’s curse lingered on the Land throughout the millennia of the Jewish exile — as foretold in Ezekiel 33:28-29. And make no mistake, the Land was forsaken — denuded of vegetation, deprived of people, and largely devoid of life.
Ezekiel 33:28 For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through. 29 Then shall they know that I am the Lord, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
In 1869, Mark Twain documented the cursed status of the Holy Land in his book, The Innocents Abroad. He rightfully understood that God’s hand of judgment had fallen on His own Promised Land.
Once the land was wrested from its Ottoman occupiers and a commitment had been given to support Jewish aspirations, the reestablishment of Israel would have seemed to be a fait accompli. But Jewish motivation was not yet sufficient to emigrate to a Middle East wasteland.
The horror of the Nazi Holocaust changed Jewish hearts and minds. Jews realized that away from their Promised Land they would always be homeless. So, by the thousands (and eventually millions) they streamed back to Eretz Israel — the Land of Israel.
MOCKING THE JEWS
The fig tree was becoming tender and beginning to put out leaves.
“Let’s set the record straight. Jesus was a Galilean Jew, not a Palestinian Muslim. He celebrated Passover, not Ramadan, and he was called “Rabbi” not “Imam.” …
As for the name “Palestine,” it was not used in any widespread way to describe the land of Israel until 135 AD – in other words, more than 100 years after Yeshua’s death and resurrection. And it was renamed Palestine by the Romans to mock the Jewish people, thereby calling their ancient (and sacred) homeland the land of the Philistines. …
The word “Palestinian” today speaks of non-Israelites, of non-Jews. It speaks of a people who claim that the land of Israel belongs to them, not to the Jewish people. And it speaks primarily of Muslims. …
Jesus is recast as a Palestinian freedom fighter, born of a Palestinian mother, at war with the evil Jews, and (through Islamic eyes) a prophet of Islam.” - Dr. Michael Brown
In the name “Palestine,” the Romans were mocking the promise God had made to David:
2 Samuel 5:19 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thine hand.
ISRAEL TODAY
Israel is a mostly secular country today. They have serious flaws. Like Americans, they are generally a sinful people. Netanyahu has disconcerting ties to the WEF and Klaus Schwab. But, God did not bring the Jews back into their land because they were holy and righteous.
No, it was because God had chosen this people to be the people through whom salvation would be brought to the world. As a result, they have paid a terrible price. They have been the most persecuted people in the world. It is a spiritual attack on their inheritance and legacy.
The “land,” and the “people of the land,” is precious to God. He says that He is “jealous” for the “land.” God brought them back into the “land” because He promised to. His prophets prophesied it. (See previous emails.) They are where they are today because God decreed it. It is the epicenter of the future. Jesus will rule and reign from there one day – hopefully, soon.
GAZA – HAMAS
As Victor Davis Hanson says,
Gaza is not anyone’s “colony”. It has been autonomous since 2006-7. No free Israeli Arab Muslim citizen would willingly emigrate there to live under the dictatorship of Hamas. And for good reason. …
Hamas is an enormous mafia-like, shakedown and hostage-taking operation that threatens the general peace, the moderate Arab nations, the Western democracies, and Israel with terrorist operations and kidnapping unless sufficiently bribed to behave.
Hamas is primarily neither a government nor even an armed force designed to fight other soldiers, but rather some eerie updated SS or Mexican-like cartel. Was that reality at the time unknown to Gazans who once voted them into power, or to its unhinged supporters on the streets and campuses of the US who celebrated its murder missions and damned Israel—even before Israel responded?
Only Hamas is deliberately targeting civilians. Hamas fires its rockets at Israeli civilians from hospitals, schools, UN facilities, and mosques. Again, note the logic: Hamas assumes that Israel fights wars more humanely than Hamas itself does, and so will both try to avoid Hamas’s Palestinian human shields, and of course never itself employ such a barbaric tactic—since, among other humane reasons, Israeli civilians would attract, rather than deflect a Hamas rocket.
How Orwellian that the world demands that Israel, in its efforts to prevent Hamas rocket launches aimed exclusively at its civilian population, must not hurt a single civilian who is impressed to shield the rocket launchers. Note well: Hamas’s air campaign is specifically designed to kill civilians—Israel’s to avoid them. In Israel rockets are used to shield civilians; in Gaza civilians are used to shield rockets.
Hamas seeks to force the Israeli military to violate the rules of war; Israel accepts that there are no rules that Hamas gunman would ever follow. The odd result is that a sick world is more accepting of deliberate mass murdering by Hamas than occasional accidental collateral damage by Israel.
HOLDING THE LINE
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Israel, this tiny sliver of land, will be hotly contested. Nations will come against the ‘people of the Land.’ But, guess what, God will defend them in the Land.
Zechariah 12:2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about … 3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
Hamas is messing with the “apple of His eye.” They are poking God in the eye, as it were.
Zechariah 2:8 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
