As for example when the LORD destroyed the northern ten tribe of Israel in 721 BC by the Assyrians. And in 586 BC sent the Jews of Jerusalem to Babylon in chains while the city and Temple were destroyed. Or in 72 AD let the Romans destroy Jerusalem and the Second Temple and let the Jews wander the earth for 1900 years.
Even after 1900 years of chastisement,when once again gathered to the "threshing floor of Jebus", apparently the Jews learned nothing except how imitate to "the savagery and butchery of the scullcapped ones" So since the judgements of Isael are administered by the LORD himself, who are we to interfere if God needs to "thresh" his Chosen Ones once again in Jerusalem.
Perhaps when the LORD says "all nations shall gather against Jerusalem", he really does mean "all." Not all but the strongest and largest Superpower, but all nations.
I'm always amazed to see so-called Christians write themselves at Center Stage in the LORD's final drama, although I think that the LORD may have reserved that role for Himself.
Bwahhahahaha.
Um, Khepry, if you believe that about al Jazeera and its ilk, I've got a structural edifice in a certain city that never sleeps you might be interested in...:)
