NEWS FROM ISRAEL AND THE MIDDLE EAST



‘Iran must attack Israel by 2014’


The Jerusalem Post reports: “Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s strategist provided the legal and religious justification for the annihilation of Israel and the Jewish people, in a document published on conservative Farsi website Alef. Reports of the document began to circulate the internet…

The document, written by strategy specialist Alireza Forghani, outlined the reasons why, ‘In the name of Allah, Iran must attack Israel by 2014.’

Claiming to only represent the personal opinion of its author, and not the Iranian government, the doctrine was published on a website believed to have close ties with the Ayatollah.

Forghani called the Jewish state a ‘cancerous tumor for the Middle East’ and reminded his readers that ‘All our troubles are due to Israel!’

‘Every Muslim is obliged to equip himself against Israel,’ he urged, reasoning that if the Muslim world does not attack Israel in the near future, ‘the opportunity could be lost and it may not be possible to stop them.’

The document explained that the war against Israel must be carried out in the name of ‘defensive jihad’ – or the protecting of Islam against aggressors ‘who want to gain domination over the Muslims and kill them.’

It also clarified that although Israel had yet to strike Iran, its occupation of Palestinian lands already justifies an attack as Islam dictates that ‘the political borders [of the world] cannot divide Muslims and the earth is divided into two parts – Muslim countries and non-Muslim countries.’…” (Terrible days are ahead for Jews as well as Christians. Ahmadinejad of Iran informs the world that his messiah, Mahdi will only appear when he has murdered most of the world’s Jews. This is the messiah of the new Wycliffe translation of Matthew 28:19 – see page 1 again. The following verses portray the coming persecution – Psalm 122:6; Matthew 24:9; John 16:2; Jeremiah 30:7; Daniel 12:1; Matthew 24:21, 22; Revelation 6:9; 12:13; 13:15; 20:4.)


Ayatollah: Kill all Jews, annihilate Israel


WND.com reports: “The Iranian government, through a website proxy, has laid out the legal and religious justification for the destruction of Israel and the slaughter of its people.

The doctrine includes wiping out Israeli assets and Jewish people worldwide.

Calling Israel a danger to Islam, the conservative website Alef, with ties to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said the opportunity must not be lost to remove ‘this corrupting material. It is a ‘jurisprudential justification’ to kill all the Jews and annihilate Israel, and in that, the Islamic government of Iran must take the helm.’

The article, written by Alireza Forghani, a conservative analyst and a strategy specialist in Khamenei’s camp, now is being run on most state-owned conservative sites, including the Revolutionary Guards’ Fars News Agency, showing that the regime endorses this doctrine.

Because Israel is going to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, Iran is justified in launching a pre-emptive, cataclysmic attack against the Jewish state, the doctrine argues…” (Despite every attempt by Islamic murderers to kill God’s Chosen People, the Jewish people will be with us forever and the Jewish and Christian Messiah will eventually rule the world from Jerusalem – Isaiah 56:5; Zechariah 14:4; Luke 1:32, 33. Praise the Lord!)


PM: World silent while Iran, Hezbollah threaten to destroy Israel


YnetNews.com reports: “‘Seventy years have passed since the Holocaust, and many around the world still remain silent in the face of Iran’s threats to wipe Israel off the map, and many stay silent despite Hezbollah’s call for the destruction of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a special Knesset session ahead of International Holocaust Remembrance Day…

‘International Holocaust Remembrance Day is the day on which the world needs to stand behind the words ‘no more.’ It’s not a slogan, but has a deep meaning,’ he said. ‘It is the day on which the world must unite to make certain weapons of mass destruction do not fall into the hands of dark regimes, headed by the ayatollahs’ regime in Iran.’

Netanyahu added: ‘Have we learned the lessons of the Holocaust? Are we treating these threats of destruction seriously? Or perhaps, like many generations before us we do not want to see the scope of the danger that is facing us. The Iranian regime is openly calling for the destruction of Israel, but many around the world remain silent. We mustn’t bury our head in the sand. The Iranian regime is planning the annihilation of Israel and is working towards Israel’s destruction – its agents (Hezbollah) fired over 12,000 missiles towards Israel’s cities. They are not concealing their intent to kill as many (Israelis) as possible.

‘The UN was founded to prevent genocides and massacres. These were its basic goals. Have these goals been attained? Unfortunately, the answer is no,’ said the PM…” (The greatest hour for Israel and Christianity is about to happen as Christ returns. See Revelation 19:11, 14, 16; Revelation 20:4; Isaiah 35:5-10.)


Some 200,000 missiles aimed consistently at Israel, top IDF officer says’


Haaretz reports: “About 200,000 missiles are aimed at Israel at any given time, a top Israel Defense Forces officer said, adding that Iran’s ability to obtain nuclear weapons was solely dependent on the will of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The remarks by Military Intelligence Chief Major General Aviv Kochavi came after IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz said…that the threats facing Israel have increased and intensified in recent years due to regional instability.

Speaking to the Herzliya Conference, Gantz said that Iran’s nuclear program is a ‘global problem and a regional problem,’ adding that Tehran’s attempts to acquire nuclear weapons must continue to be disrupted.

Kochavi, speaking at the opening session of the Herzliya Conference’s closing day, spoke of the growing threats Israel was facing: ‘a more hostile, more Islamic, more sensitive Middle East, one more attune to public sentiment, less controlled by the regimes, and less susceptible to international influence.’

The chief of military intelligence then indicated that about 200,000 missiles were aimed at Israel at any given time, adding, however, that ‘Israel’s military deterrence is intact.’…” (Armageddon is about to explode upon the world – Revelation 16:16. The attack begins and ends in a 42 month campaign against Israel mentioned eighteen times in Ezekiel chapters 38 & 39 – 38:8, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19; 39:2, 4, 7 twice, 9, 11, 12, 17, 22, 23, 25, and 29.

Israel embassies preparing for Iran strike?


YnetNews.com reports: “Foreign embassies in Israel have recently started to formulate contingency plans to evacuate their citizens from the Jewish State in case of a missile attack on Israel.

Senior officials in Jerusalem said that several diplomatic missions have shown great interest in preparing for various emergency situations, Yedioth Ahronoth reported…

In the framework of the preparations for possible fallout in case of an Israeli strike on Iran, foreign diplomats stationed in Israel requested that the Foreign Ministry equip them and their family members with gas masks.

Meanwhile, the Foreign Ministry has provided foreign embassies in Israel with a list of public bomb shelters across the country, as well as an instructional pamphlet in English produced by the IDF Home Front Command.

Diplomatic officials deployed in Israel are particularly concerned about the possibility of a missile offensive on the Jewish State that would prompt thousands of Israeli citizens with foreign passports to seek evacuation from country…”
