(Washington, D.C., May 20, 2009) Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has just finished his visit to Washington. Full analysis on my weblog, including a link to the YouTube clip of me on Glenn Becks show with a former CIA analyst who says he wouldnt care if Israel ceased to exist.

That said, theres more troubling news this morning. Im horrified by credible reports that in his June 4th speech in Cairo, President Obama will say it is time to divide Jerusalem and make the holy city the capital of a Palestinian state.
No, Mr. President, it is not
Jerusalem is and should be the eternal, undivided capital of the Jewish people and the Jewish state. Dividing Jerusalem will not make peace. Rather, it would send a message to every Radical Islamic jihadist around the world that Israel is weak, that the Jews wont even defend the sovereignty of their own capital, that there is blood in the water, and that it is time to strike Israel and wipe her off the map. Dividing Jerusalem would trigger an apocalyptic war in the Middle East the likes of which the region has never seen.
I am committed to doing everything I possibly can to educate people and particularly U.S. and Canadian evangelical Christians to the threats facing Israel and the West due to Radical Islam, and to the biblical responsibility we have to show unconditional love and unwavering support to Israel and the Jewish people. Well use radio, TV, the internet, emails and other media to get the word out. But we cant do it alone. We want and need your help.
One idea: lets build an alliance of one million true friends of Israel people who love Israel, are committed to blessing her in real and practical ways, are absolutely opposed to dividing Jerusalem, and will pray faithfully for the peace of Jerusalem and the protection of all the people of the epicenter.
Currently, we have 100,000 subscribers to our Flash Traffic email updates who are committed to this cause. If each of us recruited just 10 new friends to sign up for Flash Traffic and be part of this alliance, we would be able to communicate new information, new projects, and new prayer requests to them instantly. We would be able to mobilize people for pro-Israel events. We would be able to mobilize people to write to President Obama and their Congressional leaders to stand with Israel, not against her. We would be able to work together to stockpile food, clothing, medical supplies and other aid in Israel ahead of the next war. And we would be able to encourage one another with the knowledge that we are not alone in this important fight.
Will you join us?

COME TO ISRAEL AND ATTEND THE JERUSALEM PRAYER SUMMIT
Israel has never needed the unconditional love and unwavering support of evangelical Christians more than she does today. Yes, Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas are making threats. But the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is a great and mighty God. He is calling us to bless Israel and show her our love in a real and practical way.
Thats why we are moving forward with The Joshua Funds next Prayer & Vision Trip, and we would love for you to join us. It will be held November 5-17, 2009, and culminate in our first-ever Jerusalem Prayer Summit.
And now, by Gods grace, we have been able to reduce the price by $600 per couple.
If you have never been to the Holy Land, it is hard to describe what a profound spiritual effect such a journey can have on you and your family. You may have heard others say Gods Word seemed to come alive in a new way when they walked where Jesus walked, from the shores of Galilee to the Mount of Olives and into the streets of Jerusalem. Well, its true, and I believe our 2009 Israel trip will allow you to experience this for yourself and intensify your desire to walk closely with Jesus Christ.
If you have been to Israel before, this trip will be a great opportunity to deepen your understanding of how powerfully the Lord is moving there. I will teach at key locations and answer your questions about the future of the epicenter. You will have the opportunity to meet with and pray for local pastors and ministry leaders. We are arranging for you to spend time engaged in a practical Joshua Fund ministry project to bless the poor and needy. Whats more, you will participate in a two-day conference to pray for the peace of Jerusalem at this critical hour.
We can take up to 300 people, and to make your experience as personal and special as possible, you will be assigned to one of seven buses of about 45 people. Each bus will be hosted by a Joshua Fund staff or board member or couple, or one of our close allies. You will ride that bus with your host every day, and in the process youll get to know the people on your bus, study the Bible with them, pray with and for them, discover Israel together with them, ask questions with them, and thus form a small community. Lord willing, I will rotate through the buses to get to know you and answer your questions. Each bus will also have a professional, licensed Israeli tour guide who know every detail of the country inside and out.
Please click the link below, learn more, pray about it, and then if the Lord gives you the green light please sign up and come with us, while there is still space.
As always, we will do our best to keep you up-to-date on the kinds of projects we are doing, and brief you on how those projects are proceeding. We will also let you know about the kinds of projects we are developing for the future. In no way do we want to pressure anyone to give financially. We fully believe the Lord will provide for the needs of the people we seek to serve. But if you or others wish to help, we welcome your support, and all financial gifts are tax-deductible.

The Truth Of Iraq 2009
the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night
Not all Christians know or even believe it. They should, but there are sects that do not.
Very likely. I was in China last week and it is evident. China fears (rather, worries about) islam and sees alternatives as a counterbalance. China/Israel will have no use for the United States if this relationship is formalized.
Heh....you weren’t really supposed to ask, Mary. LOL
Just for the sake of context, I was a pretrib, Euro-AC, Gog is pre-70th week person for years. But something just never quite sat right, so I decided to throw out all the popular teachings I had absorbed sans independent study and just read the text. What a wild ride it turned out to be - now I’m a post-trib (or at least pre-wrath), Islamic-AC, Gog happens later person. :)
Here’s how I think the text lays it out (with the humble caveat that my human understanding is imperfect and seen through a glass darkly).
The Gog war is the catalyst for the abomination of the holy place, so it basically begins in the middle. The Gog invasion violates the covenant made 3 1/2 years earlier; the AC then proceeds to Jerusalem and defiles the holy place (which doesn’t have to be an erected temple - a tabernacle will do just fine). The war continues basically til the end, God’s ultimate response being what it is - His wrath as described in Revelation, Ezekiel, Joel et al.
This view was gleaned from the whole of prophetic scripture - major and minor prophets alike - with Matt 24 as the initial jumping off point. It’s amazing - everything, and I mean everything, lines up with Matt 24’s basic timeline. Another very good pivot point is the 6th seal - the details of that event are everywhere in prophetic scripture, probably a couple dozen times (I have a list somewhere) and really help to literally placemark certain parts of the text as to where they fit time-wise. It’s remarkable stuff.
Anyway, thanks for the response. Oh and I agree - Gog is revisited at the end of the millennium, however briefly. And I love that verse you quoted from Amos - indeed. Another along those lines - Prov 25:2, It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
Respectful condolences... But, its pretty lonely being ANY type of conservative these days! Glad I'm on your side!
It would change nothing except maybe the Palis could use more d short range rockets. 0’b wants to hep emm all he can.
Amen, and amen, Quix. Well said.
Yep, the last eight years have been tough going with family relations. I've been the odd-man-out of the litter since birth, but moving over to the Republican party and becoming a conservative was the last straw for most of my family.
Since the 2008 elections, communications with them have become especially sparse and strained, to say the least.
It also didn't help that I moved the wife and kids to Texas(!), the spiritual home to everything un-liberal. LOL
Ping
I’m sooo curious...
When did anyone sign the deed to Jerusalem over to the Empty Suit?
IMO : This is something to watch,,,
Watch close what he sezz!,,,
(sellout to the moozzi’s goes on),,,
Israel will fight over this,,,
BiBi will throw a fit...
He (Anti-Christ) also will not be revealed until AFTER the rapture, at least according to popular interpretation of the scripture.
For me I believe it because in order for the devil through this indivdual to take control the Holy Spirit will have to be absent and when the “Church” (true Christians) are taken in the rapture the Holy Spirit will be absent (if for only briefly, i don’t know). That will pave the way for this person to intercede and bring “calm” to the situation, which the disappearance of untold numbers (hopefully! lol!) would surely cause.
I think you really are a hero and your story would be compelling reading on college campuses (of, course, you'd have to smuggle it in at night). Individual thought and freedom versus the captivity of liberalism.
Texas is a good place to live!
I think Soros is also not at the top of the food chain. Whether he’s above OThuga or not will be revealed in due course . . . when all things become known.
Do you mean the MSM that uses terms like "Israeli Apartheid"? I don't think they'll turn on him for this. Most that I see don't really like Israel and want big concessions from the Israelis to benefit the so-called Palestinians.
The American Jewish population might turn on him, although I'm not even convinced of that anymore.
Watch the
OBAMA DECEPTION
video on YouTube.
Thankfully, I’d already felt in my spirit that they had. The video just confirmed it.
