Okay, let’s move on to Iran. There’s Iran. Over here there’s Israel, somewhere down here.
Until 1979, Iran was under the Shah. It was a relatively friendly country to Israel. Then, in 1979, the Islamic Revolution of Khomeini took place. They overthrew the government of the Shah and established a radical Islamist regime, renaming it the Islamic Republic of Iran. And all kinds of troubles have come since then.
It became the most hostile country to Israel. You could say now that Iran is ‘the head of the snake’, supplying Israel’s enemies with weapons.
If you notice on the above map, Iran is nowhere near Israel. It has got no border with Israel. Tehran is about a thousand miles from Jerusalem. Iranians uh speak Farsi not Arabic. They have quite a different culture from the Arabs.
So, what business is it they have in meddling with the affairs of the Arab world? None at all. They should let the Israelis and the Arabs get on with it. But, because of an ideological reason, because they believe that out of their Revolution is going to come someone they call the Mahdi or ٱلْمَهْدِيّ in Arabic, who’s a future Islamic ruler coming to lead the Muslims in a Jihad against Jerusalem and against Israel, overthrow Israel, establish Islamic rule in the Temple of Jerusalem and from there take over the whole world for Islam.
That is the programme ,and that’s why they’re so against Israel. They are waiting for the Mahdi to come. So, basically, it is a religious war which they want to wage against Israel, and all these other countries who are joining with them have a similar kind of idea. They are all fighting for Islamic purposes and for the destruction of Israel by Islamic forces as part of their end of days programme.
Now Iran too is held back by its domestic situation which is not good. Its regime is unpopular and particularly hated by the youth. Its defence systems are not good. In fact they’re trying to get help from Russia.
In September 2024, the Russian Secretary of State a man called Sergei Shoigu went to Iran to arrange help for Iran’s defence systems and you got to see a growing collaboration between Iran and Russia which is interesting in the light of the Gog and Magog prophecy.
Shoigu promised to help Iran’s defence systems, which they need because, in April 2024, when Iran launched the missiles against Israel (you may remember that), Israel struck back against and they hit one place which was Isfahan and they penetrated the Iranian defences and hit the most sensitive area they could have done in Isfahan around the nuclear site.
Israel was sending a message to Iran: ‘We can get to you anywhere we want. So, don’t mess with us.‘ Again, there is this very strong deterrence message coming from Israel because they’ve got vastly superior technology and they’re sending a message to Iran that tells them ‘Do not hit us because, if you do, we will hit you back much harder.‘
There is an interesting little snippet of information this is a digital clock which the Iranians put up in what they call Trans Palestine Square. You can’t to see the clock very well but you can see the Israeli flag there which they’re burning.
This actually is a sort of picture of some Islamic sort of Fighters and Tehran whatever the clock somewhere up there, this clock actually is counting down the time to Israel’s destruction. uh followed by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in 2015 who made a prophecy that, in another 25 years, in other words, by the year 2040, Israel would no longer exist.
So, they put up this clock which has a countdown to 2040. A journalist sent out a message saying that the present time the clock is blank, it’s just got a blank screen because the electricity is off in Tehran and it’s all gone dark.
And it’s kind of significant as well because it’s not just this clock that has been affected but there’s a whole problem with the infrastructure, with electricity in Iran and particularly in Tehran where public transportation, and everything else has gone dark for hours at a time, and businesses aren’t able to cope, and the entire country is suffering under crippling power shortages.
So, again they’re not in a very strong position and the the mullahs are actually afraid because, if Israel did hit back at them, they could totally devastate parts of their infrastructure which could then lead the people to rebel against them.
The regime itself is as I said extremely unpopular. The average Iranian is furious that the people the the mullahs spend billions of dollars giving weapons of destruction to people like Hezbollah in Lebanon and to Hamas in Gaza.
‘What are you doing? We don’t care about this crisis. It has nothing to do with us. Why don’t you spend the money on building up Iran’s infrastructure and making this a decent place to live in?‘
Which if they did they, could make Iran a very wealthy country, a nice place to live in. As it is however, they spend all their money on destruction which is part of the Muslim problem, isn’t it?
I was thinking, ‘What do these people actually produce that is of any use to the human race? Nothing, zero, zilch. What do they produce? They produce weapons, they produce hatred, they produce destruction.‘ And, basically, God is not too pleased with them, to put it mildly.
