I am pleased to announce that my readership has gone over 1 million people worldwide. It seems people around the world are hungry for the word. Praise Yeshua, my Boss, Lord, King and above all my Savior!
Remember friends, keep your eyes on Jerusalem, it is the stumbling block for the world. As Bible prophecy corrects reflects, Russia, Turkey, Iran (Persia) the United States, Israel and the Kurds are being dragged into the quagmire in Syria.
Personally, I think the "deep state" has co-opted Donald Trump on his foreign policy, just as they did with Ronaldus Magnus. 300 Can you recall the last time an Israeli jet was shot down? Saturday's shoot-down marked the first time an Israeli aircraft has been brought downed in combat since the Lebanese civil war in 1982.
I have a feeling that the air defenses in Syria are going to be more and more like the air defenses in Hanoi during the Vietnam war and we lost quite few jets to North Vietnamese air defenses. Reportedly, this shoot down was by Buk and S200 missiles, not the top of the line Russian S300 or S400.
Above, the S200 air defense system
Above, the mobile S300 air defense system
Above the S-400, "Trump" aka Triumf air defense system named for Trump's collusion with Putin, just kidding!
Candidate
Donald Trump may have promised to extricate us from Middle East wars, once ISIS
and al-Qaeda were routed, yet events and people seem to be conspiring to keep
us endlessly enmeshed.
On 9
February, a drone, apparently modeled on a U.S. drone that fell into Iran's
hands, intruded briefly into Israeli airspace over the Golan Heights, and was
shot down by an Apache helicopter.
Israel
seized upon this to send F-16s to strike the airfield whence the drone
allegedly originated. Returning home, one of the Israeli F-16 was hit and
crashed, unleashing the most devastating Israeli attack in decades on Syria.
Prime Minister Netanyahu says a dozen Syrian and Iranian bases and antiaircraft
positions were struck.
Monday's
headline on The Wall Street Journal op-ed page blared:
"The
Iran-Israel War Flares Up: The fight is over a Qods Force presence on the
Syria-Israeli border. How will the U.S. respond?"
Op-ed
writers Tony Badran and Jonathan Schanzer, both from the Foundation for the
Defense of Democracy (FDD) closed thus:
"The
Pentagon and State Department have already condemned Iran and thrown their
support behind Israel. The question now is whether the Trump administration
will go further. ... Secretary of State Rex Tillerson (has) affirmed that the
U.S. seeks not only to ensure its allies' security but to deny Iran its 'dreams
of a northern arch' from Tehran to Beirut. A good way to achieve both
objectives would be back Israel's response to Iran's aggression, now and in the
future."
The FDD is an annex of the Israeli
lobby and a charter member of the War Party.
Chagai
Tzuriel, who heads the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence, echoed the FDD:
"If you (Americans) are committed to countering Iran in the region, then
you must do so in Syria — first."
Our
orders have been cut.
Iran
has dismissed as "lies" and "ridiculous" the charge that it
sent the drone into Israeli airspace.
If
Tehran did, it would be an act of monumental stupidity. Not only did the drone
bring devastating Israeli reprisals against Syria and embarrass Iran's ally
Russia, it brought attacks on Russian-provided and possibly Russian-manned air
defenses.
Moreover, in recent months Iranian
policy of suspending patrol boat harassment of U.S. warships appears crafted to
ease tensions and provide no new causes for Trump to abandon the nuclear deal
Prime Minister Hassan Rouhani regards as his legacy.
Indeed,
why would Iran, which, with Assad, Russia and Hezbollah, is among the victors
in Syria's six-year civil war, wish to reignite the bloodletting and bring
Israeli and U.S. firepower in on the other side?
In
Syria's southeast, another incident a week ago may portend an indefinite U.S.
stay in that broken and bleeding country.
To recapture oil fields lost in the
war, forces backed by Assad crossed the Euphrates into territory captured from
ISIS by the U.S. and our Kurd allies. The U.S. response was a barrage of air and artillery strikes
that killed 100 soldiers.
What
this signals is that, though ISIS has been all but evicted from Syria, the U.S.
intends to retain that fourth of Syria as a bargaining chip in negotiations.
In the
northwest, Turkey has sent its Syrian allies to attack Afrin and President Erdogan
has threatened Manbij, 80 miles to the east, where U.S. troops commingle with
the Kurd defenders and where U.S. generals were visible last week.
Midweek,
Erdogan exploded: "(The Americans) tell us, 'Don't come to Manbij.' We
will come to Manbij to hand over these territories to their rightful
owners."
The U.S. and Turkey, allies for six
decades, with the largest armies in NATO, may soon be staring down each other's
gun barrels. It seems secular, pro Israeli Turkey is gone replaced by
anti-Israeli Muslim fundamentalist regime, thus fulfilling Bible prophecy.
Has
President Trump thought through where we are going with this deepening
commitment in Syria, where we have only 2,000 troops and no allies but the
Kurds and Israel, while on the other side is the Syrian army, Hezbollah, Russia
and Iran, and Shiite militias from Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan and Pakistan?
Clearly,
we have an obligation not to abandon the Kurds, who took most of the casualties
in liberating eastern Syria from ISIS. And we have a strategic interest in not
losing Turkey as an ally.
But
this calls for active diplomacy, not military action.
And now
that the rebels have been defeated and the civil war is almost over, what would
be the cost and what would be the prospects of fighting a new and wider war?
What would victory look like?
Bibi
and the FDD want to see U.S. power deployed alongside that of Israel, against
Iran, Assad and Hezbollah. But while Israel's interests are clear, what would
be the U.S. vital interest?
What
outcome would justify another U.S. war in a region where all the previous wars
in this century have left us bleeding, bankrupt, divided and disillusioned?
When he
was running, anti-war Donald Trump seemed to understand this. Now, it seems DJT
is become part of what Eisenhower called “the military industrial complex” or
what we call today the “deep state.
Friends, keep in mind, the Bible is
never wrong, as time has proceeded each Bible prophecy has been completely
fulfilled. Yeshua fulfilled every Old Testament prophecy concerning His death
and resurrection. Yeshua is coming back and this time it will not be as a lamb
but rather as Lion of Zion. Yeshua’s word alone will ultimately defeat Israel’s
enemies not the United State of America or Israel. Watch the interesting South Front videos below.
