COGwriter<\/a><\/p>\n Last week Iran threatened Israel with attack (Iran Threatens to Attack Israel and Wants Syria to Assist<\/a>), but this week it seems that it does not to want to fight yet:<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Tehran dismisses reports that Mossad or US was behind the explosion that killed the architect of country’s missile programme…<\/p>\n 16 November 2011<\/p>\n On Saturday a huge blast at the Alghadir missile base at Bid Ganeh<\/a>, 30 miles to the west of Tehran, killed 17 of the country’s elite revolutionary guards, including Major General Hassan Tehrani Moghaddam, a senior commander described as the pioneer of the regime’s missile programme.<\/p>\n A senior Iranian military official on Wednesday denied reports that Israel was linked to the blast.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/world\/2011\/nov\/16\/iran-missile-blast-israel-mossad<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n I suspect that this means that Iran does not quite feel ready to engage Israel and perhaps is waiting until 2012.\u00a0 There are reports out of Israel that Iran may have 5 nuclear bombs by the Spring of 2012 (Iran<\/strong> will have five<\/strong> nukes by April 2012<\/strong>. Only 2-3 months left for military option<\/a>); so that might be part of the reason (whether Israel was involved or not in the huge Iranian bomb blast is something I do not have enough information to speculate about).<\/p>\n There are also reports that some believe that Israel may decide that it is safer for it to take preemptive action against Iran in 2012:<\/p>\n 16 November 2011<\/p>\n (Reuters) – An Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear sites may become likelier in 2012 if Israel calculates it has more room to act alone in a U.S. presidential election year, a former U.S. official and nuclear diplomacy expert said…<\/p>\n “The most likely possibility is that Mr Netanyahu calls up Obama and says: ‘I’m not asking for a green light, I’m just telling you that we’ve just launched the planes, don’t shoot them down’,” Fitzpatrick said.<\/p>\n “And in a U.S. presidential election year, I think it’s unlikely that Obama would shoot them down.” Israel enjoys strong support in the United States among politicians and the public.\u00a0 http:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/2011\/11\/16\/us-iran-nuclear-risk-idUSTRE7AF29R20111116<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n As regular readers of the COGwriter news page are aware, I have been warning for some time that Iran and Syria may be involved together in an attack on Israel whether they attack Israel first or Israel attacks on or both of them. The above news report is confirmation that the Iranians are clearly thinking about the same thing.<\/p>\n My speculation has been based upon current events and situations as well as Bible prophecy. Both Isaiah 17:1 and Daniel 11:40-43 have been factors in that speculation.<\/p>\n Events are moving forward in the Middle East, Iran, and other parts of the world for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.\u00a0 Some of this may happen in 2012.<\/p>\n As Jesus said:<\/p>\n 37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:37)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n The Arab World In the Bible, History, and Prophecy<\/a> The Bible discusses the origins of the Arab world and discusses the Middle East in prophecy. What is ahead for the Middle East and those who follow Islam? What does Islam teach about the Imam Mahdi?

\nIs There A Future King of the South?<\/a> Some no longer believe there needs to be. Might Egypt, Islam, Iran, Arabs, or Ethiopia be involved? Is he the Imam Mahdi? What does the Bible say?
\nAnglo \u2013 America in Prophecy & the Lost Tribes of Israel<\/a> Are the Americans, Canadians, British, Scottish, Welsh, Australians, Anglo-Southern Africans, and New Zealanders descendants of Joseph? Where are the lost ten-tribes of Israel? Who are the lost tribes of Israel? What will happen to the Jews in Israel? Will God punish the U.S.A., Canada, United Kingdom, and other Anglo nations? Why might God allow them to be punished first?
\nWill the Anglo-Nations be Divided?<\/a> Will the lands of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand be divided? What does Bible prophecy teach? Are there non-biblical prophecies that support this idea? Who will divide those lands? Who will end up with the lands and the people?
\nCan the Great Tribulation Begin in 2011, 2012, or 2013?<\/a> Can the Great Tribulation begin today? What happens before the Great Tribulation in the \u201cbeginning of sorrows\u201d? What happens in the Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord? When is the earliest that the Great Tribulation can begin? What is the Day of the Lord?
\nEnd of Mayan Calendar 2012–Might 2012 Mean Something?<\/a> Are there Mayan calendar predictions for change in 2012? Changes were centuries ago predicted by the Hopi Native Americans. Do Mayan\/Hindu\/Hopi\/Buddhist\/New Age\/Nostradamus prophecies have any value here? Why might Satan have inspired this date? Does the Dresden codex show destruction of the earth by flood? Can the great tribulation<\/a> start before 2012? How might Barack Obama be involved in 2012?
\n2012 and the Rise of the Secret Sect<\/a> This is a link related to a book by Bob Thiel (COGwriter). This link also has YouTube videos. This book documents and explains hundreds of prophecies. And since it was published, world events have aligned with at least 17 predictions in the book and many more will to come to pass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
