Just a freeper observation, but there are strong indications that next week, during the time of the 9th of AV, that there will be a serious Arab attack on Israel.
The word on the street from the local Palestinians is to quote from a few "There will no longer be a Zionist problem in Palestine this month." Nobody is really talking, but I am getting veiled warnings from Palestinian friends. One such warning was a rather cryptic answer to a pointed question about war with Israel; "Do you know what the 9th of Av is? Every time Israel fights a war on the 9th of Av it looses"... People refuse to talk about war or answer any direct questions. This is very uncharacteristic for Palestinians; usually they are very verbally expressive. The following is what got me to finally write this note to you all. It is an excerpt from an email sent to me by a friend.
Today we had business to do in Jerusalem, so we left our home at 7 am and traveled down the east side of the Galilee, through Bet Shean and past the check point at Sede Trimot in the Jordan Valley.
Once we entered the Jordan Valley as we passed through the Arab agricultural areas we noticed the following which is most unusual;
1. There were no people visible working the in the fields. 2. There were no children along the side of the road.
3. There were no tractors or other farm vehicles anywhere to be seen.
4. All of the vegetables had been completely harvested and the fields were 100% empty.
5. No preparation of the fields was evident for the next planting...Plastic was everywhere from the prior crop.
6. The greenhouses had no plants in them..... 7. The vegetable stands that are normally filled to the brim from the harvest were completely vacant.
8. This is the peak season for growing vegetables in the Jordan Valley, yet everything had been harvested and nothing was growing waiting to be harvested or picked.
We concluded our business in Jerusalem and got back on the road again about 2:45 pm heading north up the Jordan Valley. Again, no people, no fruit stands, no crops, nothing!
Do these Arabs know something is about to happen that we do not know is coming? The 9th of Av is on July 23rd, which is the exact day both Temples in Jerusalem were destroyed hundreds of years apart...
This is just not how things are this time of year normally. The entire valley is the best land for growing crops in Israel and completly under the control of the Arabs. This land is the Palestinian food supply. For some reason they do not believe they need the food this year!
A friend of mine that is politicaly connected mentioned that he was thinking that the first attack date for the Arab League may be the 9th of AV, and the Sept/Oct period as the backup date. He does not believe that Syria will be ready by next week, so he thinks they will use the fall back date. However Hamas/Fatah have their people totally prepared for the first date. They may jump, even if Syria gives the no signal.
As a Biblical side reference, Isaiah 14 28-33, and Zephaniah 2 refer I believe to the destruction of the modern day Palestinians. Interestingly enough it says: " I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.." Zehpaniah 2 indicates that the industrial city of Ashkelon, (third largest city in Israel I believe), will be wiped out, but that a smoke cloud from its direction will go over Gaza, and I think kill most of the inhabitants there. Ashkelon is due north of Gaza and just a kassams throw away.
This is just a few various observations I am bringing together, but they ominously point to the same thing, a major Palestinian ground offensive may take place just next week.
Interesting. Thanks.
Ping. Thank you for info and updates.
We live in interesting times. Interesting isn’t the word I would really like to use, but you all know what I mean.
AiI, please stay safe and keep us informed.
I’ve been thinking about Isaiah 17:1 recently. It seems like this scenario can happen at anytime.
America and Israel should repent and ask for God’s protection...
And, then the US slaughters the Iranian forces trying to cross Iraq to get to Israel and shoots down the entire Iranian air force. And, then we have an armor/infantry thrust to Tehran from both directions.
Don’t forget about the 100,000,000 million man Chinese army that will also be there with Russia/USSR and the Arabs to attack Israel.
Who knows, maybe all the "Palestinian" Arabs are all going on the dole, with all the millions of dollars the U.S. and the Israeli governments are dumping on them. Why work?

WOWWW something is up
You weren’t offensive at all.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
Well, the rumor has been around a while that there will be some kind of war this summer and Syria has been making some preparations. My guess is, though, they would use proxies again, in Lebanon and Gaza.
Subtle signs of coming Middle East war?

Dear friends:
In the past few days I have seen two strange reports from the Middle East that may be tell-tale signs that war is on the horizon.
1. Syria instructed its citizens to leave Lebanon. This is ominous.
On July 5, 2007, the Iranian news agency IRNA reported that Syrian authorities had instructed all Syrian citizens residing in Lebanon to return to their country by July 15, 2007.(2) The next day, the Israeli Arab daily Al-Sinara similarly reported, on the authority of a Lebanese source close to Damascus, that Syria was planning to remove its citizens from Lebanon.(3) Also on July 5, the Lebanese daily Al-Liwa reported rumors that Syrian workers were leaving Lebanon at the request of the Syrian authorities.(4) In addition, the Syrian government daily Al-Thawra reported that Syrian universities would accept Syrian students who were leaving Lebanon due to the instability there.
2. Strange quiet and inactivity in the Jordan Valley.
The below was an e-mail report from a couple in Israel. It describes a strange scene:
“Yesterday President Bush said things about Israel that deeply concerned me”

Your premise is flawed. The summer is not the Israeli farming season as it is too hot and dry.
Thank you. God Bless.
Index bump.
Separate wars...the 200million man army comes up thru a dried up Euprates River bed on the way to Armageddon!
