I guess a fair question could be....
*As Christians will we be a witness to the signing of Israel’s 7 yr Peace Treaty?*
Are you pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib, pre-wrath, or partial rapture?

I am a Pre-Tribulation Rapture person so I wold say No. There are plenty of other things happening in this world though, that no matter where you sit on the Rapture its hard to miss that something is happening and God’s clock is clicking so much closer to midnight.
No, based on 2 Thessalonians 2:6-8:
6And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. 8 Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming;
The Antichrist will not be revealed until the One Who restrains him, the Holy Spirit who indwells those who have accepted Christ as Savior, is "taken out of the way", or removed.
The Church will be gone before the Antichrist is revealed.

In relation to the issue of the "Rapture" -- the answer would depend on which camp one is in -- in regards to this Rapture.
For Pre-Trib people -- the answer is that they will not see it, since they will not be here on earth.
For Mid-Trib people -- the answer is that they will see it, since they will be here until about 3-1/2 years into the Tribulation.
For Pre-Wrath people -- the answer is that they will see it, since they will be here for some period of time after the abomination of desolation and before the time that they consider the "Wrath of God" beginning.
As to what God says, I maintain that the Bible teaches that Christians will not be here on earth to see that happening.
