G-D's Promise to Israel
The so called Arab-Israeli conflict has been brewing for over 4000 years. It began with Isaac and Ishmael, the sons of Abraham, escalated in the time of Jacob and Esau, the sons of Isaac, and continued throughout the time. It became a Moslem-Jewish conflict with the advent of Islam in the 6th century AD.
The Palestinian goal never was to accept a two state solution. They’ve already turned that deal down at least twice. The real goal is to eliminate the Jewish state altogether.
The Koran teaches that any land conquered in the name of Islam will never be lost. The very existence of the nation Israel is a violation of that teaching because the land of Israel, including and especially Jerusalem, was once conquered for Islam.
Since 1948 the utter destruction of Israel has been the stated Moslem goal, but half a dozen wars have taught them that Israel was too strong to be destroyed militarily. - As long as the Palestinians can win concessions at the bargaining table war can be avoided, but the day will come when no more concessions can be given, and the only option will be to go to war for the rest.
The “Peace Process” enables the Palestinians to win back much of the land through inexpensive negotiations. This has the effect of simultaneously weakening Israel and giving the Moslem forces time to gain the necessary strength to take the rest.
Today, conventional warfare requires more geography because of the speed of modern aircraft and missiles rather than less to give defenders sufficient time to react to an attack. Taking land from central Israel (the West Bank) means that attack aircraft could fly over the country in about 8 minutes. This is not enough time to react with effective counter measures. Giving up the West Bank would make Israel less secure.
Israel’s enemies used the time spent in negotiations to create long-range ballistic missile and biological warfare capabilities in an effort to neutralize Israel’s nuclear threat. It is a nasty situation all around.
Most informed observers believe that as soon as the Moslems have gained everything possible from negotiating and believe they’re strong enough to destroy Israel, they’ll attack.
So much for what the Palestinians and their supporters are planning….
However, G-D made His road map for Israel clear from the start!
(Isaiah 46:10): “At the beginning I announce the end, proclaim in advance things not yet done, and say that my plan will hold.” - He also made it clear that the name of the Land is Israel and not Palestine (Ezekiel 37:12). “This is what ADONAI says, who gives the sun as light for the day, who ordained the laws for the moon and stars to provide light for the night, who stirs up the sea until its waves roar – ADONAI-Tzva’ot is His name: ’If these laws leave my presence’, says ADONAI, ‘then the offspring of Israel will stop being a nation in my presence forever.’” (Jeremiah 31:35-37)
So, you see – G-D’s promise to Israel is as certain as the existence and order of the universe!
