About twenty members of a Palestinian terror group, al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, stormed the office of the mayor of Bethlehem located on Manger Square in the birthplace of Jesus Christ.
With a number of these armed men on the rooftops of one of the adjoining buildings, one of the Brigade members said that they made this raid at this time and this location to draw international attention to the issue at a time when the eyes of the world are turned towards Bethlehem during this Christmas season. This was another evidence that the Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas has failed to tame security chaos in the Palestinian areas where armed men act with impunity, often in the name of resistance to Israel.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
An armed siege on the mayor's office on Manger Square in the little town of Bethlehem by Palestinian terrorists speaks of a scenario in this area during the End Times, according to Bible prophecy. Back in 2002 Palestinian terrorists entered the Church of Nativity, took siege of this traditional site for the birth of Jesus Christ, and held off the Israeli army for five weeks before surrendering.
This most recent siege of the mayor's office located right there near the Church of Nativity on Manger Square once again has drawn world-wide attention to the terristic activities of some Palestinians who have no respect for human life and are locked in a struggle to the death with the Jewish state of Israel. This report is evidence that Bible prophecy is in the process of being fulfilled.
Ezekiel, Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Obadiah, all Jewish prophets speak of the End Times when the Palestinians, the modern-day name for descendants of Esau, will return to the land, kill the Jewish people, and endeavor to take the land that God gave to the Jewish people as their home, Jeremiah 49, Ezekiel 35, and the book of Obadiah.
All three of these prophets say the Edomites, today's Palestinians will return, rebuild, and retaliate against the Jewish people as we approach the End Times and the Lord's return. Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
