In a recent pole of Israelis it was revealed that 71% of the body politic of Israel believe that the United States should launch a military attack on Iran if diplomatic efforts fail to halt Iran's nuclear program that is developing a nuclear weapon of mass destruction.
Meanwhile, there is a report in the New Yorker magazine that the United States Defense Chiefs have drawn up new plans for a possible attack on Iran, shifting the focus from a broad bombing assault on the supposed nuclear facilities, to surgical strikes on Iran's revolutionary guard bases in Tehran and elsewhere.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The upsurge of calls for a military strike on Iran's nuclear program and it's facilities is actually setting the stage for what Bible prophecy says will happen, possibly in the near future.
The world has stood on the sidelines and watched the Iranian's continue to develop nuclear weapons of mass destruction almost without hindrance. Israeli leaders have been warning the world community that the Iranian threat is real and must be dealt with before it's to late to stop the danger of Iran's nuclear arsenal.
Former US Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, and other security experts, say that military action must be taken. Israel's Foreign Minister Livni told the international community at the United Nations that the Iranian nuclear issue will not resolve itself.
Iran is mentioned in Bible prophecy, referred to by it's Biblical name, Persia, found in Ezekiel 38:5. According to Bible prophecy Iran will be only one of a coalition of nations that will align themselves against Israel in the last days.
This alignment of nations will attack Israel, possibly with nuclear weapons of mass destruction, but will be defeated; not by US or Israeli forces but by supernatural power.
Ezekiel 38:18-23 and Ezekiel 39:1-6 reveal that the alignment of nations, including Iran and all Middle Eastern nations will be defeated by forces in the heavens. The Lord himself will almost completely destroy all of these attacking nations, Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
