Saudi Diplomat to Israeli Paper: 'Age of War with Israel' Is Over
Breitbart ^ | 6/23/2019 | Deborah Danan

Posted on 06/24/2019 9:58:37 PM PDT by bitt

TEL AVIV – In a rare interview with a Hebrew-language newspaper, a senior Saudi diplomat said it was time the Arab world realized that the “age of war with Israel” is over.

The diplomat, who declined to be named, slammed the Palestinian leadership for “irresponsibly” panning the Trump administration’s long-anticipated peace deal without even seeing it.

“The bloody conflict has dragged on for too long. For us the Saudis, as well as for all the Gulf states, Egypt and Jordan, it is clear that the age of war with Israel has ended and that normalizing relations will only benefit us,” he said in interview published in Globes. “The entire Arab world can benefit from this, not only the Palestinians, and of course also [Israel].”

“History and Allah have brought a real opportunity to realize this,” he added.

He praised Israel’s technological prowess, saying that even those in the Arab world that “hate” Israel look to the Jewish state with “admiration over its success in [technology] and hopes to copy it.”

He emphasized Saudi Arabia’s deep commitment to the Palestinians but criticized them for hanging onto a victimhood identity.

“Maybe it is hard for them to separate themselves from the portrayal of the eternal victim and they don’t believe they can survive without it,” he said.

President Donald Trump’s so-called deal of the century would bring the Palestinians $50 billion, “sums they never dreamed of,” he said.

That is a second “Gog and Magog” war at the end of the Millennial Reign. It is world-wide (from the four corners of the Earth).

Ezekiel 38, at least that chapter, seems to describe it as a regional war.

So there are two schools of thought on it (a third school, Dave Hunt who was very good, thinks Ezekiel 39 winds up being Armageddon - or thought, RIP Dave - I might agree on 39 but 38 seems regional to me - FWIW)

[...and when they shall say peace and safety, then sudden destruction shall come upon them..]

And they have definitely been saying that, in one form or another:

Ah, "peace and security" - the catchphrase of the Last Days. Beware when people say there IS "peace and security".

1st Thessalonians 5:1-4 English Standard Version (ESV)

The Day of the Lord

5 Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need to have anything written to you. 2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

"Peace and Security" in regards to dividing Israel and creating a Palestinian state. I don't know that the 60th-year anniversary of the U.N. means anything specific but if you haven't seen the video before, you might find it interesting in light of the ESV verse above.

Peace and Security Video

1st Thessalonians 5:1-4 King James Version (KJV)

5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Wow, is there really a chance the middle east could be unwinding itself from the Wahabbists?

I'm doing a special 2nd prophecy list ping because I'm finally putting this all together - with screaming red letters, LOL - might not be a bad idea to save the cached article - I save pages but I don't always bring them back properly.

In 2015, the United Nations Elders were seeking a man -----> "and let the successful candidate be appointed for a single, non-renewable term of seven years."

ONE 7-year term - ONE SEVEN YEAR TERM

I don't know if they got their man but that is what they were seeking.

A MAN OF "PEACE AND SECURITY"

"A big part of the problem is that the Security Council, which is supposed to maintain world peace and security"

"And finally, let the Council, and especially its permanent members, make sure the UN gets the kind of leader it needs. Let them respect the spirit as well as the letter of what the Charter says about choosing a new Secretary-General, and no longer settle it by negotiating among themselves behind closed doors."

Palestinians, Saudis all the same - Muslims and will never stop wanting to kill all Jews, Christians, Hindi, and anyone not in their mosque per Mohammad.

So Saudis making nice with Israel is Saudi Taqiyya

Far as I’m concerned, this is breaking news. This is earthshattering in terms of foreign policy. They made Jimmy Carter into a saint for the Israel/Egypt deal.

Brenda Weltner has a series on the Revelation’s Timelines of the End! She does them in ~Ten Minute segments. Her approach is that the visions overlap and one can’t just read it from start to finish. The timeline is exquisitely locked on the Seven Year period starting with the Feast of Trumpets 2017, September 21, 2017. So we are 21 months, or halfway through the first half. Buckle up! That easy “pre-Trib” departure was just another delusion from Satan.

I don’t think the 7 years have started FRiend, but it’s O.K.

I’m glad you’re tuned into the Signs of the Times regardless.

Excellent advice, BTW.

Especially for the secular world.

"a senior Saudi diplomat said it was time the Arab world realized that the “age of war with Israel” is over."

Hat tip Scott Adams, for noting He said the Arab world noticeably missing is Iran, aka formally known as Persia

I have been saying since March 17' PDJT is on a mission for ME Peace. This is what I saw:

* The Syrian Cruise Missile hit, we are not screwing around.
* The Moab in PakheeStan, whacked way more bad guys than we know, this was a good thing. All bad actors operatives probably funded by Iran.
* Our Spec-Ops in Yemen, again Iranian Funded, we went in to slow them down.
* The destruction of ISIS which leaves the PA without cover and the US and Israeli efforts to get rid of all the bad actors North of the Golan Heights.
* The visit to Saudi Arabia, they want change, they hated Obama and weren't fond of the Bush's either, they are sick of there own bad actors. Thomas Wictor has detailed this via the weaponry being used and bad actors being taken out, and how they are probably Gulf States Forces.
* As much as everyone here can't stand them, Jared and Ivanka have been ombudsmen/women to the M.E. when dad can't go. They are like-able and trusted, they will deliver sensitive messages, the Saudi's can do business with them.

* And now Jared's 50 Billion infrastructure deal for the PA. Take a look at the utility wiring in a video of when Israel takes out a bad actor. There is literally extension cords hanging down. The place in shambles. They can take the money and win or say no and PDJT and Israel still wins, they look like fools. (Again Scott Adams called this).
* Add to this Eygpt, & Jordan becoming allies to PDJT even before the election, with Al Sisi being the guy who got it rolling.

The PA doesn't have much wiggle room, take a peace deal or be branded even more so as screwed up in the head.

All our machinations to box in Iran and dry up their funding to the PA and our stopping of funds has got to add even more pressure for a deal.

And if Kim Jung Un was working w/ Iran on Nukhee's, well we split that team up now didn't we.

Iran stands alone, deal or no deal you trolls..

Personally I hope the Mullah's collapse and it all happens and they become Persia again MPGA, lol, but that is just me....

Even more so? Jeff Kuhner once said on his show the whole focus of BHO's adminstration was to make ammends to Iran and allow them to have da-Bombba. PDJT has stopped that dead in it's tracks IMHO. Val-Jal and BHO are sucking pond water, couldn't happen to 2 nicer people.

But even bigger, what if this guy aka PDJT gets it done, I mean a peace deal, Carter couldn't do it, Clinton couldn't but this guy.... There isn't enought visqueen or duct tape to protect us from what will happen to progressives craniums as the response is the classic Gallagher-Watermelon comedy antic, as our Lion Gets-R-Done. It will be the biggest Schadenfruede moment in our lifetimes, I don't smoke, but I will hit a cigar bar and buy one and celebrate...

You know, i tend not to agree to that as a blanket statement.

I grew up in Gush Katif with a lot of legit Bedouin.

They were really nice people and very fair. Good workers.

..stands to reason that Sheba and Dedan would be at relative peace with Israel(if you accept they represent the Arabian peninsula) before Eze 38-39. If one accepts a post rapture Eze. attack—man the rapture is close...

I agree, brother. Saudi Arabia fearing Iran and leaning towards Israel totally fits with Sheba and Dedan at least voicing opposition.

This is but one reason Dr. Thomas Ice thinks Ezekiel 38 is not Armageddon - because the world is basically united against Israel during the Armageddon Final Solution (attempt), but here you have at least voiced opposition to the Ezekiel 38 invasion (attempt).

I’m trying to get my house in order - keep those prayers coming - lots of things going on in the world.

I need a few prayers - any prayer warriors out there - thanks in advance.

BTW I DO hope the New World Order United Nations enjoys their man of “peace” and his “7 years” because they are definitely going to get it - one of these days.

And all that comes with him and those 7 years.

Let’s see how “Globalism” works then. The Tower of Babel will look like a cakewalk.

I’m reminded of Pat Buchanan ripping into Kofi Annan back int he day. That was always great.

Sure they all are but those qualities have not a thing to do with their religious beliefs. I knew a bunch of Turks overseas in Turkey and Germany - nice people, give you the shirt of their backs - then, when you are not expecting it, rob you blind. Messing with their women (messing defined as: looking in their direction) kill you. You are a kafir and as such fair game to rob, rape, abuse and kill.

A radical muslim want to kill you now, a moderated muslim is just waiting for the right time to kill you. Just ask any so called moderate muslim about the mosque taxes and who get the money and what it is used for. Saving you the trouble ... there is a specific Arabic word for the portion of the tax that goes to jihadis in the ME or elsewhere so they can get guns and ammo to kill.

I’ve worked with a Turk who picked up women effortlessly and an emotional Armenian, each looking stereotypical for their nationality. We got along great.

I had college classes with Israelis and Syrians. Stereotypes applied here, too. The Israelis were ectomorphs and the Syrian a Gaulloise-smoking mesomorph. They hated each other’s guts.
