Israel, Middle East – Prophecy for our times

I

Will someone come up with a solution to this problem, offering peace and safety, bringing a guarantee such as a peace treaty? If so, would he be hailed as a great world leader? Israel Politics Let’s just come on to Israel because Israel was also mentioned in the speech which Guterres gave at the U.N General Assembly.

Answer: I don’t believe it. Hamas fired 4500 missiles into Israel over 52 days in 2014. Then accepted a cease fire after Israel retaliated. 2014 –...

Hezbollah, Iran, and Turkey support them in this endeavour. Israel, understandably, does not want to be wiped out so defends itself with Iron Dome defence system and with counter attacks on Hamas when they...

‘Why doesn’t Israel agree to a Palestinian State?’

The Palestinians could have had a state in 2000 when Israeli PM Barak offered Yasser Arafat almost all of what he wanted, except for the Jewish quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. Arafat said ‘Whoever would give away one centimetre of Jerusalem is not an Arab and not a Muslim.’ In 2008 Israeli PM Ehud Olmert offered 94% of the West Bank with some compensating Arab areas of Israel. Each...
