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.
What is the connection between Russia and Syria, since you mentioned it? And also, isn’t Russia supposed to be our “friend?” The world is getting to be a real confused place. It used to be so easy, everything was out in the open, now it seems some prefer to be underground.
Wonder what caused the stench? The unbathed arab factor, or perhaps a scent of sulphur. The cold chill is perfectly expected.
Ezekiel’s War maybe?
Prayers for you and Israel.
Right now Israel has the weakest leadership it’s had ever. I’m sure the muslims are aware of this as well. In any event they (Syria) must realize they would be pummeled by US air attacks as well. I think Iran realizes this and since they are pulling all the strings would have to stage some sort of diversion in Iraq to keep us busy there. This all would have to be extremely coordinated which is why I remain a bit skeptical as well.
Thank you so much for the information. Bless you. Stay safe.
Yes, that’s true, we don’t know the day or time that Jesus comes back, but that doesn’t mean we are supposed to be playing stupid either, we are still supposed to be looking for signs. If this does happen, it doesn’t mean the Jesus is coming back on that day. I believe it’s true that believers will meet him in the clouds, but you might see more then you bargined for before that day happens. I personally think people throw out that line, “You don’t know the day or time,” because they are being in denial and they don’t want to face things that all Christians should be willing to not only face but to confront when the time is right.
Just at the last moment something occurred to me. While the Israelis may be fighting for their lives against an enemy that knows the Jewish calendar well enough to pick Tish`ah Be'Av to attack the majority of American Jews are fretting about Southern Baptists and more worried about the rights of "gays" than the lives of Israelis. Will nothing wake them up???
It varies, year to year, on our calendar. The Hebrew calendar uses lunar months, with one "intercalary" month (Adar 1) being added in 7 out of 19 years. The month of Adar would become Adar 2, preceded by Adar 1 in years with 13 months.
When the pogroms start in the US perhaps they might wake up!
You’re most welcome.
You’re not heavy—you’re my bro/sis??
Besides, I’ve been falsely accused plenty hereon . . . enough is enough.
Quite plausible.
Lots of folks believe that’s what’s next on the Biblical prophetic schedule.
I don’t think anyone has timing all worked out . . . and probably not even sequencing . . .
But that is one conjecture I’m . . . fairly sympathetic to.
Bump
Will nothing wake them up???
= = = =
The globalist gestapo at the door to take them to the new camps . . . MIGH wake them up . . . a LOT late.
Maybe we are understanding better why the Bible mentions 144,000—12 thousand from each of the 12 tribes . . .
because, like the Christian church—most are playing at religion and spirituality and blind to all reality.
horribly fascinating.
In such a small piece of real estate, do you think it is possible to strike with nukes and not at least get fallout all over themselves?
You mean instead their neutron bomb of course!
