Rouhani Says Next U.S. President Must Admit Defeat, ‘Surrender to Iran’

October 21, 2020  — Breitbart.com reports: “Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani said on Wednesday the Islamic republic is entirely uninterested in the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election because the next incumbent of the White House  will have to surrender to the Iranian nation.

‘It is by no means important for the Islamic Republic of Iran who will win the U.S. presidential election, because any government taking power in the U.S. would have to surrender to the Iranian nation,’ Rouhani said at a weekly cabinet session on Wednesday.

According to the Tasnim News Agency, he argued the U.S.’ actions against the Iranian nation have all ‘ended in failure,’ claiming the termination of the U.N. arms embargo on Iran is evidence of a victory for Islamic rationalism against force…”  (Iran will be blotted out when Russia, China, and Islamic nations fight Israel and her allies during Armageddon – Revelation 16:16.  The battle is described in Ezekiel 39:1 – 5: “…thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:  And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured…” Soon the war of wars will arrive from the North and East [Russia and China] – Daniel 11:44.  The battle is described in Ezekiel 38:1 – 5: “…the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,   Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief [Russian] prince of Meshech and Tubal: [Moscow and Tubal, or Tubalsk – Southwest of the Russian capital]:  And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:  Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:”  See the next report.)

Egyptian army depicts exploding Israeli warship in official motivational video

October 22, 2020  — Israel National News reports: “Channel 11 News’ Roi Kais noticed a frame in an official Egyptian Army video clip depicting an Israeli warship. Calling the frame ‘very disturbing,’ Kais tweeted that it was ‘from a promotional video for the Egyptian Navy published a short time ago by an Egyptian army spokesman under the name ‘Lords of the Seas’ which depicts the destruction of a vessel on which the Israeli flag is hoisted.’

Picking up the story, Galei Tzahal correspondent Jacky Hugi directed a query to the Prime Minister and Alternate Prime Minister, writing: ‘This is real time. Don’t say ‘we didn’t know’. If you don’t respond harshly to this thing, and also initiate a deep and comprehensive study of its meaning, then you’re like a spectator who’s fallen asleep…”

‘Jerusalem is our city,’ Turkey’s Erdogan declares

October 2, 2020  — The Times of Israel reports: “Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Thursday implied that Jerusalem belongs to Turkey, referring to the Ottoman Empire’s control over the city for much of the modern era.

‘In this city that we had to leave in tears during the First World War, it is still possible to come across traces of the Ottoman resistance. So Jerusalem is our city, a city from us,’ he told Turkish lawmakers during a major policy speech in Ankara. ‘Our first qibla [direction of prayer in Islam] al-Aqsa and the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem are the symbolic mosques of our faith. In addition, this city is home to the holy places of Christianity and Judaism.’

The Ottoman Empire ruled over Jerusalem from 1516 to 1917. Modern Turkey, its successor state, has long stressed its enduring connection to the holy city, regularly condemning Israel’s alleged efforts to ‘judaize’ it and the US administration’s December 2017 recognition of it as Israel’s capital.

Jerusalem has been the capital of Israel since the country’s founding, and the Jewish people have thousands of years of history in the city, backed up by extensive archaeological finds…”  (930 times God promises Jerusalem forever to the Jews. Soon all Hell will break loose in the Middle East. Joel 3:2 warns today’s politicians that World War III occurs because of parting God’s land. It won’t succeed. Christ will return, stop the horrendous war and reign over the world from the Throne of David in Jerusalem forever – Revelation 11:18; Luke 1:32, 33. Psalm 122:6 – “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.”)
