Iran's Flag on Israel's Border: 'We are Coming'
jpost ^ | 6/28/17 | Seth Frantzman

Lebanon seems to be having a flag sale. Iranian flags, Hezbollah, the UN, Spain, Palestinian flags. They are all flying provocatively along the border with the northern Israeli community of Metulla. Just meters from the fence that separates the countries, not far from the site of a 1985 terror attack, Hezbollah has festooned the roads with signs of its presence. It’s purposely done so Israeli residents can see the flags and the billboards next to them. In Metulla there is a memorial for the 12 Israeli soldiers killed in the 1985 suicide bombing, while just across the border a huge billboard celebrates the same killing.

I spent Tuesday touring the Lebanese and Syrian borders with Israel to see the tense situation in the north of the country. The flags across the border seemed representative of the situation that prevails today. Next to the Hezbollah flags is a small post that has a UN logo. Near it the Amal Shia Lebanese movement has erected a large banner reading “to he of pure hands and a generous soul, thank you speaker of parliament Nabih Berri.” On the banner is the Iranian flag. Here is a visible presence of Iran just a stone’s throw from Israel. It’s not the only Iranian symbol here. On a hill overlooking new houses being constructed in Metulla is another huge poster with a photo of the Dome of the Rock. The face of Ayatollah Khomeini glowers down over the dome and Hezbollah has written “we are coming” in Hebrew and Arabic. They’ve put a giant Palestinian flag next to the poster.

Do you really want to classify the righteous anger of the perfect, sinless son of the most high God as being “pissed”?

Seems to me that is demeaning to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, but hey maybe it’s just me

Assuming they are in range, the billboard and flags are ripe for some target practice by Israeli paintball and pellet rifle enthusiasts.

Israel should have destroyed Iran years ago. With the help of King Obama Iran has now been more of a problem and without the full support of President Trump would be hard to take Iran on alone. I fear that Israel will nuke them and starting a nuke war would involve the world.

By the time the IDF is done with Iran that’s all that will be left - flags.

Given the rather earthy language used in the OT at times, including by God himself, I would not characterize Him as prissy.

However, we are to avoid gratuitous foul language (which, ahem, I have been working on for decades).

So is Yeshua going to be pissed? Yep. Is He going to rule with a rod of iron? Yep.

The Jews were looking for a Ruler Messiah. They got a lamb. Most Christians now are looking for a lamb and worship the idol of ‘niceness’. They are going to get a lion.

A video came out about a week ago with the Israeli Air Force Chief saying they’re ready for the next war and fully expect Iran to be involved. There won’t be a repeat of 2006. It’ll be cinders and ashes.

A parking lot for the mega mall Israel will build there. It’s the ordinary people that will suffer not those mullah’s or leaders.

If Iran tries to go to Israel, would that be going to the Great Roach Motel For Muslims?

So you missed the part where I said the RIGHTEOUS ANGER God.

I don’t characterize anything of God or His righteousness the same way I would characterize any purely human emotion such as being “pissed”

In my opinion nothing about a perfect, omnipotent, omniscient, righteous God can be compared to the fleeting emotions of His creation.

And we arose to a mighty sound from the east
Lo and behold it was Jesus
And he said,” Red Badge was right”
