When will the US and the world understand that when evil regimes, such as that in Iran, say, “Death to America, death to Israel,” they mean it. The ayatollahs have said it, Iranian military leaders have said it, and the Iranian government has said it. Beyond that, killing Jews and destroying Israel is written into the Hamas charter. If that is not enough, look at the Houthi’s flag to the right.

It says: “Allah is the Greatest, Death to America, Death to Israel, A Curse Upon the Jews, Victory to Islam”

There is a deep and intertwined connection between Iran and the terrorist groups who literally want to rid the world of what they call “the Great Satan” (America) and “the small Satan” (Israel). To illustrate, check out this short video on the Iran-Hamas connection:

For decades, American presidents (with one exception) have tried to broker peace between Israel and the Palestinians. More recently, the Obama and Biden administrations have done everything in their power to cozy up to the Iranians, thinking there is a diplomatic solution to it all. Here is the reality:

• One side wants the other side dead. (Can you tell who is who?)
• One side wants PEACE, the other side wants a PIECE of the Middle East…Israel’s piece.
• Iran is behind virtually every terror group on planet earth, and they like it that way. Others do Iran’s dirty work and they manage to keep their nose clean. BTW – Iran could not care less about the terrorists. They are expendable. They don’t care how many are lost. Terrorists are primarily Arabs….Iranians are Persians. Most Arabs are Sunni Muslims, while Iran is almost entirely Shi’ite Muslim. They would kill one another if not for a common Jewish enemy.
• This is a religious war and diplomacy does not work in religious wars. Iran has a cause: to hasten the return of the Mahdi (Muslim messiah) and take over the worldwide caliphate. No amount of diplomacy will resolve the issue. 

Ultimately, King Jesus will settle the score that diplomacy could not win. Keep one eye on Scripture and Bible prophecy (such as Ezekiel 38) and one eye on current events. They are on a collision course and we know who the winner will be!

Blessings friends! Stand strong and let Jesus be your anchor in the storms ahead!
