Media reports claim that a Russian S-300 anti-air battery opened fire on Friday night against IDF warplanes operating over northwestern Syria, marking the first time Russia has actively interfered with an Israeli air attack in Syria. The fact that the maneuver originated in the ‘north’ and was executed by Moscow has rabbis in Israel noticing several parallels to the War of Gog and Magog as prophesied in the Book of Ezekiel.
Rabbi Ken Spiro, a historian and Senior Lecturer and Researcher for Aish HaTorah Yeshiva, stated that this new development adds new and conflicting elements to regional politics and could conform to a possible Gog and Magog scenario.
“Most people mistakenly believe that Gog and Magog will be all of the nations rising up against Israel,” Rabbi Spiro said. “That is only one possible scenario, and if this happens, these nations will be punished for this. Though Gog and Magog are certainly going to be multi-national, there are Jewish sources that describe nations turning against each other. It could be Esav against Ishmael. It could be that this is the plague Ezekiel describes is that all of the nations will turn against each other.”
“One thing for sure is that evil united is not good for the world. EU, the European Union, is actually an acronym for ‘evil united,’ and we see that the only thing that unites them is a hatred of Israel.”

Ezekiel 38:2-6
2 “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him 3 and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshek and Tubal. 4 I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army—your horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords. 5 Persia, Cush and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, 6 also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you.

Well, looks like the Russian AA crew are not up to the task.
Eze 38 - Russia pulls their invasion stunt one last time and God Himself destroys their entire army with fire and brimstone. The carnage is so massive that it takes 7 months to bury the dead invaders.
The Putards can really pick winners. /sarc
Or the Russian operators of the air defense system were just sending a warning to Israel. If those Russian operations were actually ineffective, it would be another damaging blow to Russian prestige and self-confidence.

Israel showed great restraint by not hitting that site after its aircraft were fired upon. But, maybe the air crews thought, “No harm, no foul,” or their leadership would not give the go-ahead. Who knows?
Right.
Israel and Russia have had a lot of cooperation over Syria in recent years. They may not be allies, and they may be rivals to some extent, but that doesn’t mean either is anxious for open confrontation.
Like us, the Israelis have been attacking Syrian government forces and basically flying top cover for ISIS/Syrian Rebels/FSA etc. Guess it’s a bitch to get shot back at.
“Israel and Russia have had a lot of cooperation over Syria in recent years.”
That’s true. But that seems to be souring somewhat lately.
Israel’s vast natural gas resources pose an economic threat to Russia.
Biden didn’t allow the Israelis and Greeks to build a pipeline linking Europe to Israel’s gas fields. So he got to screw two allies at once. (Why FedGov has any say in the matter is beyond me)
Israel is not silly enough to ever forget that it is Russia that supported the mullahs in Iran, their allies in Syria & Hezbollah, and the PLO terrorists, who all want Israel destroyed.
“the Israelis have been attacking Syrian government forces”
Syrians have been attacking Israeli government forces for decades. What did they expect?
Nor are they silly enough to ever forget American support for Auschwitz borders for Israel.
Interesting.
Hi.
Between you, me and Rabbi Spiro . When Jesus comes back, most Jews will be okay. But for non Christians, looking busy ain’t gonna cut it.
A terrible swift sword.

And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates...
Ezekiel 38:11
This is not the case yet.
Look for the UN enforced “peace”.
For me, this will be the sign...
No one is sure it was manned by Russians or Syrian firing for - just aimed it in the general direction.
firing for effect
So I wonder if that Biblical “fire and brimstone” translates to “javelins and stingers.”? And they seem to be about half way thru the seven months just finding dead rooshians in Ukraine?
