UN Vote for Palestinian State

Great!  This is JUST what the world needs....another Arab/Muslim nation!

Don't we have enough already?  As near as I can tell they are all cesspools of ignorance, poverty and very few human rights....why the heck would the world vote to make one more?

Of course the answer is linked to biblical prophecy.

Author Joel Rosenberg gives us some insight:

On Thursday, 138 nations voted in the U.N. General Assembly (UNGA) to declare a “State of Palestine” and recognize it as a “non-member observer state” within the international community. Forty-one nations abstained from voting. Only nine nations voted against the resolution: the U.S., Israel, Canada, the Czech Republic, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau and Panama.

* In his speech to the UNGA, Palestinian Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (aka, Abu Mazen) said, ““We did not come here to delegitimize a state established years ago, and that is Israel. Rather we came to affirm the legitimacy of a state that must now achieve its independence, and that is Palestine.” However, he also praised the Palestinian terrorists who died in the war against Israel last week in Gaza, calling them “beloved martyrs.”

* The Israeli Prime Minister’s spokesman responded: ”The world watched a defamatory and venomous speech that was full of mendacious propaganda against the IDF and the citizens of Israel. Someone who wants peace does not talk in such a manner.”

* Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird responded: “This resolution will not advance the cause of peace or spur a return to negotiations. Will the Palestinian people be better off as a result? No. On the contrary, this unilateral step will harden positions and raise unrealistic expectations while doing nothing to improve the lives of the Palestinian people.” I agree and I’m grateful to the government of Canada and specifically to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who remains the most consistently pro-Israel leader on the planet in recent years.

I’m wishing I could rejoice with my Palestinian friends about the U.N. vote. But the Bible is clear that the Lord God will judge all nations who divide Land of Israel. “For behold, in those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there on behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; and they have divided up My land.” (Old Testament Book of Joel, chapter 3, verses 1 and 2)

138 nations 'for'...and only 9 'against'.  Well, thank the Lord that USA was NOT part of the 138...for now anyway.

Can you see how the world continues turning on Israel?  Do we understand that even though the vote doesn't give FULL VOTING RIGHTS to the Palestinian state, it does give them access to the UN Courts and we KNOW they are going to use those courts to drag Israel into them and press charges for WAR CRIMES and/or CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.

Can you even imagine?  Hamas in Gaza has lobbed close to 10,000 missiles into Israel while aiming for citizens and non-combatants and hiding behind schools and hospitals.  AND YET THE WORLD SEEMS BLIND TO THIS!!

How can that be? 

Clearly the answer is a supernatural one.  As the world becomes more blind to the things of God the veil of confusion will get thicker.

The world is setting up for the situation where Israel is all by itself...and 138 to 9 shows you how rapidly we are approaching these Last Days.
