Iran and 10,000 Troops Six Miles From Israel

Do you remember how Israel killed an Iranian General and his staff a few weeks ago?  They were getting real close to the Israel-Syria border and were schmoozing with some Hezbollah Islamists...and the IDF blew them all into an early meeting with their 72 virgins!!

Of course the IDF has "no comment".

The next day, Iran promised severe retaliation to Israel for killing their general.

Today we find this....

Iran General and 10,000 Troops Six Miles From Israel

Last week we reported a potential Iranian armored blitzkrieg through Syria to the Golan Heights, on the northern border of Israel. Today’s news may confirm that report.

Israeli General Israel Ziv (res.) reported in Jerusalem that Iranian general officers have taken command of the Syrian front within six miles of the north-east border of Israel, along with 10,000 “volunteers” from Iran, Iraq and Afganistan.

From the Israel newspaper Yedioth Achronoth, as translated by the Washington Free Beacon:

“Iran is taking over the reins in Syria,” said Ziv … “In fact, no military decision [in Syria] is made without [the Iranianian Revolutionary Guard].” He described (Syrian President) Assad as “a puppet looking out at his lost land.”

This dangerous development may lead to a fast-spreading regional war in the Middle East. An Iranian blitzkrieg against the Golan Heights would trigger Israeli defenses in depth in Syria. Iran could potentially bring more than 100,000 Basiji into the battle, as well as IRGC troops. If Israel is directly threatened, it may well resort to unconventional weapons, and even launch a counter-attack against Iran itself. In previous wars Israel has counter-attacked into Syria and Egypt.

Iranian Air Force officers in Khamenei’s audience were reported to have responded to his statement with a chant,

“Allah Akbar [God is great]” … “Khamenei is the leader. Death to the enemies of the leadership. Death to America. Death to England. Death to hypocrites. Death to Israel.”

Iranians have been made to chant those words every day since 1979, when Jimmy Carter permitted the modernizing Shah of Iran to be overthrown by martyrdom-preacher Ayatollah Khomeini, leading to more than a million dead in the following Iran-Iraq War.

Do you really think that Israel and Iran are going to be able to lay off each other for the next 20 or 30 years?

No?

So how do you think an all-out war in the Middle East might affect America?  Do you think Russia will be brought in?  China?  India? Pakistan? Egypt?  Libya?  Syria?

There is REAL danger that the next big world war is going to unleash nuclear weapons...and when that day comes, believe me, it will make all the headlines.

As one author said, "In the 1950'w and '60s the idea of mutually assured destruction was enough to keep the trigger finger off the Russian and American nukes.  In the Middle East today you have some players who hear "mutually assured destruction" and come running to it like a dinner bell!"

I remember hearing an Iranian General interviewed 8-10 years ago and he said he would happily sacrifice 50,000,000 Iranians in exchange for Israel being completely destroyed.

Yep!  Sounds like mutually assured destruction IS the dinner bell for some Generals in Iran.

Hey Obama!!!  Are you reading this???  Iran and its nukes are MORE IMPORTANT than man-made climate change!

Archaeologists are "OUTRAGED" Over ISIS Destroying Artifacts

You probably have seen the videos coming out of Iraq and Syria of ISIS members taking sledge hammers to priceless statues that are thousands of years old?  They destroyed a museum in Mosul last week and now are wrecking one in Nimrud.

Archaeologists and officials have expressed outrage about the bulldozing of the ancient Assyrian city of Nimrud by Islamic State militants in Iraq.

IS began demolishing the site, which was founded in the 13th Century BC, on Thursday, according to Iraqi officials.

The head of the UN's cultural agency condemned the "systematic" destruction in Iraq as a "war crime".

IS, which controls large areas of Iraq and Syria, says shrines and statues are "false idols" that have to be smashed.

"They are erasing our history," said Iraqi archaeologist Lamia al-Gailani.

Nimrud lies on the Tigris river, about 30km (18 miles) south-east of Mosul, which IS controls.

Many of the artefacts found there have been moved to museums in Baghdad and overseas, but many remain on site.

BBC Middle East correspondent Jim Muir says the attempt to destroy Nimrud is already being compared with the Taliban's demolition of the Bamiyan Buddha rock sculptures in Afghanistan in 2001.

As well as destroying artefacts, Islamic State also trades in them - and the trade is one of its key sources of revenue.

IS "assaulted the historic city of Nimrud and bulldozed it with heavy vehicles," the tourism and antiquities ministry said on Thursday.

It said the militants continued to "defy the will of the world and the feelings of humanity", calling for a UN Security Council meeting to discuss how to protect cultural heritage in Iraq.

Nimrud covers a large area, and it is not yet clear whether it has been totally destroyed, our correspondent says.

But a local tribal source told Reuters news agency: "Islamic State members came to the Nimrud archaeological city and looted the valuables in it and then they proceeded to level the site to the ground.

"There used to be statues and walls as well as a castle that Islamic State has destroyed completely."

Here;  http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-31760656

"I'm an archaeologist and I'm, quite frankly, OUTRAGED at ISIS and how they are destroying these statues!"

Really??  So were you MORE or LESS outraged when they raped, killed and beheaded 25,000 women and children last year?

"Well...I don't know...I would have to think about that....the statues can't be replaced but the people can...so....."

So do you propose sending 100,000 U.S. soldiers into Iraq and Syria to try and stop ISIS from killing and destroying these statues?

"Well, no....I abhor violence!  In fact in Berkeley, CA where I work at the University, we host "No war Wednesdays" and forbid the Marines to have a recruiting center in our town."

Of course this is just a fictional conversation, but let's remember, the ONLY thing (on earth) that stops big, nasty men with guns is BIGGER nasty men with bigger guns....and since liberals can't stand guns and war....all they can do is stand around and announce how enraged they are.

"This is OUTRAGEOUS!!"

Netanyahu May Be Understanding What Esther is Saying

For those of us who read our Bibles, we read Ezekiel 38 and we see daily headlines that involve Russia, Iran, Turkey and Israel.  These are the four main players in this yet-to-be-fulfilled prophecy.

So is Netanyahu reading his Bible?  Does he read Ezekiel and wonder if he isn't the man who has been put in place for a TIME SUCH AS THIS?

U.N. Special Envoy: Netanyahu Recognizes Signs Of Times

A U.N. special envoy says Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress on Tuesday made clear he is thinking in “scriptural terms” and believes himself to be called to protect his people at this critical time.

Laurie Cardoza-Moore, who was named special envoy for Middle Eastern affairs to the World Council of Independent Christian Churches for her expertise on Middle East affairs and Jewish-Christian relations, said Christians need to think of their own actions in the same terms.

In an interview with WND after Netanyahu addressed a joint session of Congress, Cardoza-Moore observed: “The prime minister spoke about the long history of the Jewish people over 4,000 years. He understands that he has been called at this hour for a time such as this.

“That’s also why he referenced the presence of Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel in the chamber. Prime Minister Netanyahu understands that the threat of a nuclear armed Iran today is the same kind of threat as the threat to Israel that existed seventy years ago.”

She described the mood in Congress as “sobering,” as lawmakers “hung on every word that Prime Minister Netanyahu said.”

She noted that several people complained to her that United States was stuck with Barack Obama while Israel was led by Netanyahu, whom Cardoza-Moore called “the Churchill of our age.”

Pamela Geller, author of “Stop the Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance,” agreed with Cardoza-Moore’s assessment of Netanyahu’s address.

Geller told WND, “Netanyahu’s speech was statesmanlike and magisterial – powerful, straightforward and scary. He was in complete command. Obama should be learning from him, but instead he petulantly vowed not to watch.”

WND reported Netanyahu warned America that a bad deal with Iran would only pave the way for the rogue nation to get a nuclear weapon, and talk-radio icon Rush Limbaugh described Netanyahu’s speech as a “direct punch” at Obama.

Geller said Netanyahu was “interrupted 40 times with cheers and standing ovations, and with good reason.”

“Despite Islamic and leftist efforts to compel congressmen to boycott the speech, the Congress was packed,” she noted. “So once again, Obama and the Democrats are on the wrong side of history. Worse still, the Democrats viciously and petulantly attacked Netanyahu after the speech. They hit bottom and keep digging, knowing that the ‘enemedia’ will cover for them.”

It's hard NOT to think of the Book of Esther as you read this.  Remember, Esther was a Jewess living in Persia (Iran) when Haman the Persian devised a plan to kill all the Jews in Persia.

Esther 4
12 When Esther’s words were reported to Mordecai, 13 he sent back this answer: “Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape. 14 For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”

Netanyahu may have read this very passage and realized that he COULD NOT KEEP SILENT AT THIS TIME and decided to speak to all who would listen...even if many Democrats and Team Obama refused.

Netanyahu Speech Well Received in Saudi Arabia?

Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi was in tears during Netanyahu's speech.  She said the tears were because she was so outraged that he was condescending and speaking to them like they were not too bright.

So here in America, Israel seems to be starting to slide down party lines...Dems are turning against them and Repubs are in full support and realize they are the ONLY nation in the Middle East remain a trusted ally.

But who could have seen this coming??

Netanyahu's Iran speech gains tacit support in Saudi Arabia

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's fiery speech this week before the U.S. Congress, in which he argued against an emerging nuclear deal with Iran, has received tacit support from an unlikely quarter -- Saudi Arabia.

The oil-rich Sunni kingdom views Shiite Iran as a regional rival that is perhaps even more menacing than Israel.

That was clear in a string of columns this week published in Saudi state-linked media, which is widely seen as reflecting official views and mainstream thought in the kingdom, and which voiced skepticism of President Barack Obama's efforts to broker a landmark nuclear agreement with Tehran.

"Who could believe that Netanyahu today has taken a better stand than Obama with regard to the Iranian nuclear file?" columnist Ahmed al-Faraj wrote in the Saudi-owned al-Jazira newspaper on Monday, a day before the speech.

On Thursday, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was in the Saudi capital to ease Gulf concerns about the negotiations with Iran, which are aimed at reaching a framework agreement this month and a final deal later this year. Kerry is meeting with the foreign ministers of the Sunni-ruled Gulf states and the new Saudi monarch King Salman.

Like Israel, Saudi Arabia has long viewed Iran as an expansionist power that seeks to dominate the region through local proxies, including Lebanon's Hezbollah, Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip and Shiite militias in Iraq. Saudi Arabia and Iran are fighting a proxy war in Syria, with the kingdom arming the rebels seeking to topple Iranian-backed President Bashar Assad.

In a column published in Asharq al-Awsat, a daily owned by King Salman's family, Abdulrahman al-Rashed wrote "Iran's fingerprints are everywhere."

"Iran is currently in an offensive state, the likes of which we have not seen in modern history," he wrote.

Netanyahu said as much to Congress, telling lawmakers that Iran is "gobbling up" nations in its "march of conquest, subjugation and terror."

Here; http://news.yahoo.com/netanyahus-iran-speech-gains-tacit-support-saudi-arabia-152025015.html 

So...let's review....Egypt and Saudi Arabia now side with Israel more than they do the USA...and Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Israel all wonder what the heck Team Obama is up to?  They simply can't make sense of why a guy would harpoon his friends while inviting Muslim Brotherhood supporters into the White House.

Saudi Arabia liked Netanyahu's speech to Congress more than Pelosi and 50 other Democrats who refused to even attend the speech!

Up is down, down is up, right is wrong and wrong is right.

Release the flying pig!!

NYC Schools Closing for Muslim Holidays

Beautiful!!  This nation, formed under Judeo-Christian values, it's Constitution acknowledging the God of the Bible and carving Bible images all over its capital in Washington, D.C. is now going to bend over backwards to start appeasing the wishes of Muslims.

NYC public schools to close on 2 Muslim holidays

NEW YORK (AP) — The nation's largest public school system will observe the two most important Muslim holidays starting next fall, a policy change hailed Wednesday by Islamic leaders in New York City.

Under the new policy, the city's 1.1 million-pupil public school system will close on Sept. 24 for Eid al-Adha, which is also known as the Festival of Sacrifice. The holiday of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, will be observed during summer school in 2016.

"Hundreds of thousands of Muslim families will no longer have to choose between honoring the most sacred days on their calendar or attending school," Mayor Bill de Blasio said in his announcement.

Muslim leaders welcomed the announcement.

"After years of advocating by New York City's Muslim community, Muslim public school students will finally and thankfully no longer be penalized for observing their religious holidays," said Zead Ramadan, a board member of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Former Mayor Michael Bloomberg opposed making the change but de Blasio and the other major candidates who campaigned to succeed Bloomberg in 2013 all said they would implement it.

The new calendar will keep the total number of school days unchanged at 182: the state-mandated 180 plus two more in case there are snow days.

New York City public schools have long closed for major Jewish holidays such as Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur as well as the Christian holidays of Christmas and Good Friday.

Other public school systems that have moved recently to observe Muslim holidays include those in Waterbury, Connecticut and Frederick County, Maryland.

"But Dennis, they close schools for Christian and Jewish Holidays which are two out of three "Great faiths" spoken of by almost everyone...the third great faith is Islam...so why not give them equal time?  Its the tolerant and inclusive thing to do!"

Yep.  Discernment is dead, and I seriously doubt that it can be resurrected here in America.

The center of Christianity has shifted away from America to places like China and the African continent.

Just as the Israelites following Moses into the desert choked on the meat that they grumbled for....America will one day choke to death on all of our "blessings" because we have totally forgotten from WHOM all blessings flow.

Sing the dinner prayer with me now, "Praise God from whom all blessings flow...Praise Him all creatures here below...Praise Him above you heavenly host....Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.  Amen!"

Pelosi and Democrats are "Furious" Over Netanyahu Speech

Israel is on the front page of the WSJ again today...this time with a picture of Netanyahu shaking hands with Speaker John Bohener.

Of course 50 Democrats skipped the speech and some who were in attendance were burning in their chairs as Netanyahu addressed Congress.

Pelosi, Democrats furious over Netanyahu 'condescension'

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi politely stood and clapped when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu entered the House chamber for his long-awaited, and highly controversial, speech to Congress. The longer he spoke, the less enthusiastic she got.

At one point, when Netanyahu suggested his nation's relationship with the United States should be above politics, Pelosi looked at her lap and shook her head. When he declared that, "if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand," Pelosi threw her hands up in exasperation. More than once, she turned to her deputy, Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, and appeared to vent. And even before Netanyahu had begun his ascent up the center aisle toward the exit, Pelosi pivoted and headed out a different door and into the Democratic cloakroom.

"I was near tears throughout the prime minister's speech — saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States," she fumed in a statement afterward, adding that she didn't appreciate "the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation."

Pelosi's was the highest-profile sign that Netanyahu had inflamed his relationship with some congressional Democrats with his address to Congress, a 39-minute warning that Obama's negotiations on limiting Iran's nuclear capability would all but guarantee that Tehran gets nuclear weapons. Even as he spoke, the Obama administration pressed on with those talks, and the president dismissed Netanyahu's speech by noting that "foreign policy runs through the executive branch and the president, not through other channels."

More than four dozen Democrats skipped the speech altogether, offended by an array of developments before they even got to the policy substance of the speech itself.

But Cohen and 11 other House Democrats later expounded on their multiple frustrations with the speech, including the substance. His statement about Israel standing alone particularly chafed.

"I think that's delusional," said Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., who skipped the speech. "The notion somehow that he thinks that Israel can just bull through this on their own against the world ... Israelis don't believe that."

"What I heard today felt to me like an effort to stampede the United States into war once again," said Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., who also skipped the speech.

Rep. John Yarmuth, D-Ky., said the speech was "straight out of the Dick Cheney playbook — fearmongering at its worst."

Here;  http://news.yahoo.com/pelosi-democrats-furious-over-netanyahu-condescension-204106256--politics.html

Let me re-paste the statement that really bugged the Dems;  His statement about Israel standing alone particularly chafed.

Hmmmm....let's think here....what does the Bible say about Israel one day standing alone?  It says that Israel WILL be standing alone with only God to stand for them.  The nations will be gathered against her.

So why isn't America around to stand with her anymore?  Well she either collapsed after the Rapture or she imploded because of financial mismanagement or she imploded because of moral depravity....either way, Israel will be all alone and America will not rise up to defend her.

The fact that Netanyahu chose to say that Israel WILL ACT ALONE if it needs to....seems very prophetic.

Also the fact that Israel has turned into a politicized nation is simply amazing.

Why did the Democrats chose to boycott the speech?

Why do the Democrats tend to be anti-Israel more than Conservatives?

Well...think about it....   WHICH PARTY would tend to be more God-fearing?...liberals or conservatives?

Yep.  Conservatives.

Which party has more atheists, agnostics, scoffers and God-doubters?  Liberals or conservatives?

Yep. Liberals.

Which party is filled with pro-abortionists and pro-gay marriage proponents?

Yep. Democrats.

Just a very quick study can explain why Democrats tend to be more anti-Israel....because Democrats are more likely to fall under the spell of the Prince of This Earth, (Satan) because they are more likely to have NO FEAR OF THE LORD.

"The fear of the Lord is the BEGINNING of wisdom."...and atheist, liberals who have no fear also have no wisdom...so they simply can't discern anything.

"Dennis, you sound so DOGMATIC!!  I've known lots of wonderful Democrats who love Jesus Christ!"

Really?  Do they support abortion and gay marriage?

"Why, yes they do!  What does that have to do with anything?"

Really?  Do they deny the inerrancy of scripture in its original language and scoff at Jesus being the ONLY WAY?

"Well, they certainly like the Bible even if they never read it....but they are still wonderful, kind people!  They have done lots of good things for the poor and marginalized....just like Jesus!"

"Depart from me!  I don't know you." said Jesus.

Here is Your "Diversity Moment" For the Day

"All paths lead to God."

"We can learn great things from all religions."

"Love and sex go hand in hand no matter who you love!"

"No religion has a corner on truth."

"Love doesn't care whether you are male or female."

Now watch this super short video for your warm fuzzy of "DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION"!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnDgZuGIhHs&t=122

I was disappointed that they didn't include INTER-SPECIES lovers.  I'm quite sure the man we posted about who has a horse for a lover is feeling very excluded and NOT included.  Excluding anybody in an INCLUSION video seems....intolerant.

I wonder if the makers of this video are specio-phobic?

Also notice the Jew and the Muslim they show hugging each other?  I wonder if this video is going to have numerous Muslim leaders call for the death of that Muslim hugging a Jew in such a public setting?

"Dennis, can't you just watch the video and celebrate the good feelings it gives us??  Why are you such a downer?"

Maybe because Jesus told us;  WIDE IS THE ROAD THAT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION AND MANY WILL BE ON IT....and I see all these people in the video and wonder if their smiling faces are all on the wide road leading to hell?

It's not a very pleasant thought....

Increasing Global Hatred of Israel

Those of us who read out Bibles know that the world's incessant focus on and hatred of Israel is a sign that we are in the Last Days and that Christ could return for His bride, the Church, at any time.

His return is IMMINENT.

For other folks around the world, they have a different view on the global hatred of Israel.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has claimed that heightened anti-Israel sentiments across the globe serve as a sign of "divine help" in the Islamic Republic's fight against its arch enemy. 

"Increasing global hatred of #Israel is a sign of divine help," he wrote late Monday on Twitter. 

Iran's leading cleric came out against the pro-Israel lobby, American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the group's annual confab on Monday.

The premier warned of the existential threat a nuclear Iran would pose to Israel during his speech at the AIPAC conference, which came ahead of his historic address to a joint session of Congress set for Tuesday.

As Netanyahu is expected to present an escalated campaign against the Obama Administration's Iran diplomacy, Khamenei charged that Israel's dominance is the source of problems suffered by the West. 

"The day when Western ppl realize that their problems result from #Zionism’s hegemony over govts they will make an inescapable #hell for them," Khamenei said on Twitter. 

According to Khamenei, Israel has also exerted its control over American officials, "obliging" them to "flatter" the government in Jerusalem.

"Zionists’ hegemony over US officials is such that these poor ppl have to show consideration for #Israel& cover up its crimes. #ShutDownAIPAC," said the chief Iranian cleric. 

Here;  http://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/Irans-Khemenei-Increasing-global-hatred-of-Israel-is-a-sign-of-divine-help-392755

So here is what is amazing....the Ayatollah thinks that the world's hatred of Israel is because of 'divine help'....and he is exactly right!!  But the divinity that is pushing the world is a powerful angel by the name of Lucifer, aka Satan.  And now Satan has put together another false god by the name of Allah and given him a crazy helper by the name of Muhammad.

Current best estimates of the number of Muslims on planet earth exceeds 1 billion.  That's a whole bunch of lost and deluded people!!  They need Jesus Christ as savior in the exact same way that you and I need Jesus Christ as savior.

Friends, we don't have to travel to Muslim lands to evangelize Muslims....God is bringing them to America and putting them right on our doorstep.  Minnesota is home to the largest group of Somalis in the nation...and most of them are Muslims who desperately need Jesus.

Most Antarctic Sea Ice EVER!

Another funny headline today that has to be frustrating to those chicken-littles out there who insist that global warming is going to kill us all.

Antarctic Sea Ice Did The Exact Opposite Of What Models Predicted

Climate models can be good tools for predicting future sea ice levels — unless, of course, they are completely wrong.

In the case of Antarctica, the climate models were dead wrong, according to a new study by Chinese scientists published in the journal Cryosphere. The study found that most climate models predicted Antarctic sea ice coverage would shrink as the world warmed and greenhouse gas levels increased.

The opposite happened. Most climate models analyzed in the study predicted Antarctica would shrink between 1979 and 2005, but instead south pole sea ice levels increased during that time. Going a step further, sea ice levels have only increased since 2006, hitting all-time highs for sea ice coverage in September of last year.

“For the Antarctic, the main problem of the [climate] models is their inability to reproduce the observed slight increase of sea ice extent,” researchers wrote in their study.

“Both satellite-observed Antarctic [sea ice extent] and [satellite measured] Antarctic [sea ice volume] show[s] increasing trends over the period of 1979–2005, but [climate models’] Antarctic [sea ice extent] and [sea ice volume] have decreasing trends,” researchers added. “Only eight models’ [sea ice extent] and eight models’ [sea ice volume] show increasing trends.”

Chinese scientists only looked at sea ice projections until 2005. Had they kept going, they would find more than a trend of “slightly increasing” sea ice levels. Last year was the first year on record that Antarctic sea ice coverage rose above 7.72 million square miles.


By Sept. 22, 2014, sea ice extent reached its highest level on record — 7.76 million square miles. Antarctica is now in its melt season, but even so, sea ice levels were very high for late December and early January.

Friends, it's getting pretty obvious that the world seems to be going through an intense period of birth pangs.  It's not getting hotter or colder it's getting more volatile and we can expect this to increase.

Hottest ever, coldest ever, snowiest ever, biggest eruption ever, biggest quake ever, driest ever, most tornadoes ever, biggest tsunami ever, wettest ever, most ice ever, least ice ever....

The earth is groaning....and all the carbon credits, electric cars, recycling plans and tiny houses is not going to change these birth pangs.

Did Obama Threaten Israel?

This sounds serious....

Report: Obama Threatened to Shoot Down IAF Iran Strike

The Bethlehem-based news agency Ma’an has cited a Kuwaiti newspaper report Saturday, that US President Barack Obama thwarted an Israeli military attack against Iran's nuclear facilities in 2014 by threatening to shoot down Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.

Following Obama's threat, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was reportedly forced to abort the planned Iran attack.

According to Al-Jarida, the Netanyahu government took the decision to strike Iran some time in 2014 soon after Israel had discovered the United States and Iran had been involved in secret talks over Iran’s nuclear program and were about to sign an agreement in that regard behind Israel's back.

The report claimed that an unnamed Israeli minister who has good ties with the US administration revealed the attack plan to Secretary of State John Kerry, and that Obama then threatened to shoot down the Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.

Al-Jarida quoted "well-placed" sources as saying that Netanyahu, along with Minister of Defense Moshe Yaalon, and then-Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman, had decided to carry out airstrikes against Iran's nuclear program after consultations with top security commanders.

According to the report, “Netanyahu and his commanders agreed after four nights of deliberations to task the Israeli army's chief of staff, Benny Gantz, to prepare a qualitative operation against Iran's nuclear program. In addition, Netanyahu and his ministers decided to do whatever they could do to thwart a possible agreement between Iran and the White House because such an agreement is, allegedly, a threat to Israel's security.”

Here;  http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/191966#.VPThIPnF91Z

Wow!  If this is true...it's mind blowing!  Would Obama really have ordered US Military Jets to shoot down Israeli jets?

If so, it might give one more reason for why Netanyahu and Obama can't stand each other.

Friends, I know the USA doesn't have to support everything that Israel says and does.  But it sure makes one wonder what is going on with Team Obama.  They seem more comfortable entertaining our Muslim enemies and less interested in supporting our ONLY TRUE ALLY in the Middle East.

Blessings and curses are promised by God to the nations based on how they treat Israel and the Jews.
