Israel<\/strong> Threatens the U.S.<\/strong> The new Israeli President, Benjamin Netanyahu, stated in a recent interview that \u201cThe American president\u2026 must stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons\u2014and quickly\u2014or an imperiled Israel may be forced to attack Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities itself.\u201d Mr. Netanyahu went on, \u201cYou don\u2019t want a messianic apocalyptic cult controlling atomic bombs. When the wide-eyed believer gets hold of the reins of power and the weapons of mass death, then the entire world should start worrying, and that is what is happening in Iran\u201d (Atlantic Monthly<\/em>, March 31, 2009). Also, in a recent meeting with President Obama, the Sultan of Saudi Arabia pressured the U.S. not to concede to Iran\u2019s nuclear ambitions and risk destabilizing the Middle East. Long ago, God prophesied that He would make Jerusalem a \u201ccup of drunkenness\u201d or a \u201ccup of reeling\u201d to all the surrounding peoples. He also warned that Jerusalem would be a \u201cvery heavy stone\u201d and that nations who would arise against it would be \u201ccut in pieces\u201d (Zechariah 12:1-3). Today, while many nations would like to destroy Israel if they could, this nation is \u201ctoo heavy\u201d to move and is really causing world leaders to \u201creel\u201d as they try to figure out what to do with it. We must continue to watch how God\u2019s prophecies will come to pass.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe EU and Germany \u201cSnub\u201d Israel.<\/strong> Events in recent weeks have seen German President Merkel postpone indefinitely a meeting with her Israeli counterpart\u2014urging him to continue pushing for a two-state solution in the Holy Land. Germany\u2019s foreign minister also recently failed to extend an invitation to meet with Israel, something customarily done in his letter to a new Israeli government official. Concurrently, the EU is considering the idea of sanctions against Israel unless it makes progress toward a two-state solution (IsraelNationalNews.com<\/em>, April 7, 2009). These actions support the Palestinians who have pushed for years for an \u201cequal vote\u201d with Israelis. Several Palestinian leaders have indicated that they will accept rule or oversight from any<\/em> outside party, so long as they have an equal vote. God prophesied that during the final three-and-one-half years prior to Christ\u2019s return, a European Beast power would be in control of the Holy Land and that this Beast power would be heavily influenced by a powerful church (Daniel 9:27; 11:40-42; Luke 21:20-24; Revelation 17). It is sobering to watch Germany and the EU pushing an agenda for Jerusalem that could lead to the fulfillment of long-standing Bible prophecies.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
