Germany's FM Frank-Walter Steinmeier addressing the German Parliament said that the Nazi slaughter of the six million European Jews during the Holocaust meant that his country had a particular responsibility for helping to ensure Israel's security.
The German Parliament held a special session to recognize Israel's 60th independence day and Germany's FM emphasized his country's commitment to Israel and praised the Jewish state on its attempts to inspire peace in the region. Steinmeier said the engagement for the future derives from responsibility for the past, adding that Germany was acting towards assisting in the peace process in the Middle East.

Germany's recognition of responsibility for the Holocaust and its honoring of Israel's 60th birthday has a unique connection to Bible prophecy for the End Times.
Germany's FM Steinmeier in his address to the German Parliament to honor Israel's 60th birthday, reminded the world of the Nazi slaughter of six million European Jews, accepting responsibility for the past. Germany believes that this acceptance of the past now gives them the responsibility to ensure the security of the Jewish state among its Middle Eastern neighbors and will work towards that end. This report highlights two significant events with prophetic importance. Germany's recognition of Israel's 60th birthday is tangible evidence that Ezekiel's prophecies of the rebirth of a Jewish state in their ancient homeland is in the process of being fulfilled, Ezekiel 34, 36-37.
Steinmeier's reminder of the Holocaust is also a reminder that the worst Holocaust for the Jewish people is yet to come. Zechariah 13:8 reveals that in the future Tribulation Period, two of every three Jews will be killed, which means eight million Jews will die. That is worse than the Nazi Holocaust.
Germany's recognition of the Holocaust and Israel's 60th birthday is evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

World leaders are praising the progress being made in Iraq
A gathering of world leaders meeting in Sweden for the second such conference on the rebuilding of the war torn country of Iraq has been praising the progress of the Iraqi people and its government as highlighted by the remark from the UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon who said that Iraq had stepped back from the abyss but warned that the situation is still very fragile.
Nearly one hundred countries are taking part in the forum which is aimed at supporting Iraq's efforts to restore stability and rebuild a functioning economy. Iraq's PM Maliki said that Iraq is not a poor country, it possesses tremendous human and natural resources but the debt, which is government inherited from Saddam Hussein, has hampered the reconstruction process.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The progress reported by world leaders, related to the rebuilding of the war torn nation of Iraq, is a precursor to an End Time scenario for Iraq that is found in Bible prophecy.
Iraq's PM Maliki has called on neighboring countries to forgive debts and waive payments for wars fought under Saddam Hussein. This plea from Maliki coming at the meeting in Sweden where world leaders have praised the progress already made, but warn that the road ahead is still very fragile. The aim of this second conference on the rebuilding of Iraq is to help the Iraqi people to become a secure and prosperous nation. This is a goal that fits right into the prophetic scenario for Iraq as found in Bible prophecy.
The ancient Jewish prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Zechariah and the Apostle John wrote of a future for Iraq which is actually Biblical Babylon. Revelation 18 reveals that Babylon, modern day Iraq, will be the international headquarters for a one-world, economic, political, governmental system headed up by the Antichrist and that it will be destroyed prior to the return of Jesus to the Earth, Isaiah 13:14, Jeremiah 50-51 and revelation 16:17-20.
Before Babylon, modern day Iraq, is destroyed, it must be rebuilt. That plan is operation today.

A Palestinian leader says Israel is on the brink of extinction
The exiled leader of the Palestinian terror group Hamas, Khaled Mashaal, meeting with Iranian President Ahmadinejad in Tehran said the Palestinians would never cease to resist Israel's illegal regime which Mashaal said is on the brink of extinction.
Ahmadinejad told Mashaal that the Palestinian resistance has completely dispirited the Zionists and that the Palestinians had emerged victorious due to their determination to drive the occupiers out of their land. Mashaal also met with Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Alli Khomeine who congratulated the Palestinians on their fight against Israel and said the Jewish state was helpless in the face of the Palestinian struggle.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The statement by a Palestinian leader that Israel is on the brink of extinction may be a Palestinian goal, but it is totally incorrect according to Bible prophecy.
The recent statements by Khaled Mashaal, the exiled Hamas leader, that Israel was on the brink of extinction is actually a statement of purpose for the Palestinian people who are involved in their struggle against the Jewish state of Israel. Mashaal has been orchestrating the Hamas violence against the Jewish state from Damascus, Syria and has not only enlisted the support of Syria, but also the Iranian-Islamic regime of Ahmadinejad and the ayatollahs to destroy the Jewish state of Israel. This present-day scenario fits like a hand in a glove with the prophetic scenario found in the Bible.
Ezekiel 35 reveals that the Palestinians will rise up to take the land of Israel as their own land. In Malachi 1, the prophecy says the Palestinian people will set their borders and the Lord will call them the borders of wickedness. Obadiah foretells of the end of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He writes that it comes at the Return of Jesus Christ back to the Earth. Until then, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will continue, but there will be no total destruction of the Jewish people or the Jewish nation.

Israeli PM Ehud Olmert calls people who believe the Bible about Israel, "Fanatics"
The Israeli PM addressing the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, said that only fanatics believe that in this day and age, and in the current situation, it is still possible to cling to the vision of greater Israel as called for in the Bible.
The prime minister said that today, we face the choice between a greater Israel and a Jewish nation. The two, he said are mutually exclusive and they only exist together in the minds of deluded fanatics who misconstrue reality. One member of the Knesset said that the statements of the prime minister were from someone who himself was delusional and at the end of his political rope.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The statements from a troubled Israeli PM that call people who believe the Bible delusional fanatics is in total contradiction to what Bible prophecy says about greater Israel.
Ehud Olmert, the PM of Israel who is in very bad political trouble, who many believe is at the end of his political career, see ms to be grasping for a lifeline with his recent diplomatic efforts and now, his harsh statements about people, both Jews and Christians, that believe the Bible. PM Olmert has been the leader of a number of giveaways of Israeli land, i.e. the Gaza Strip Jewish settlements and is now ready to give away the Golan Heights and 90 percent of all of Judea and Samaria, including the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
God's Word, His prophetic Word, says there will be a greater Israel with 10 times the land they have today, Genesis 12, 15, Deuteronomy 30, plus 35 other prophetic passages. The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel, wrote 2,500 years ago that this greater Israel will be in operation during the Millennial Kingdom when Jesus Christ rules and reigns from Jerusalem, Ezekiel 47 and 48.
Jeremiah points out that this will be after the time of Jacob's Trouble, a seven year period of judgment, Jeremiah 30:7.
PM Olmert is wrong. There will be a greater Israel in the future.

Automated killer robots could unleash a robot arms race that will be a threat to humanity
According to university professor Noel Sharke, the keynote speaker at Great Britain's Royal United Services Institute, the autonomous gun-toting robots developed for warfare could easily fall into the hands of terrorists, and could unleash a robot arms race that will pose a threat to humanity.
Intelligent machines deployed on battle fields around the world, from mobile grenade launchers to rocket firing drones, can already identify and lock onto targets without human help. There are thousands of military robots on the ground in Iraq as well as unmanned aircraft and military leaders are calling for autonomous robots as soon as possible.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
An autonomous gun-toting robot in the hands of a terrorist in our world today could well be one aspect of the End Times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy.
The warning from a top expert on Artificial Intelligence that an autonomous gun toting robot in the hands of a terrorist could bring about a robot arms race that will be a threat to humanity, has not deterred military leaders around the world to back away from their need of for these robots that would allow for a risk free war.
Several countries led by the US, have already invested heavily in robot warriors developed for use on the battlefield. South Korea and Israel both deploy armed robot border guards while China, India, Russia, and Great Britain have all increased the use of military robots. These autonomous, gun-toting robots may well be the robot warriors that will fulfill many aspects of Bible prophecy for the Last Days.
Jesus Christ in His Olivet Discourse said that one indication of His soon return would be war and rumors of war, Matthew 24:6. John the Apostle and author of the book of Revelation said that the second judgment to be released on humankind during the Tribulation Period would be war and death, Revelation 6:3-4. John also wrote that one-fourth of the Earth's population will be killed, many of them by wars in the future, Revelation 6:7-8.

The new Russian President Medvedev makes his first official trip a visit to China to reject American global dominance
Russian President Medvedev on his first official foreign tour since taking office, has met with Chinese President Hu in Beijing, a meeting with a very interesting political dimension, to Sino-Russian cooperation. It was a rejection of American global dominance.
Russia and China have built close political ties over recent years and are today enjoying a boom in mutual relations with trade growing rapidly as China emerges as Russia's second largest trading partner after the EU. Both Russia and China have been increasing their respective military arsenals and world leaders are watching with a cautious eye to the military buildup of these two superpowers.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As both Russia and China emerge as superpowers in this world today, the prophetic scenario in Bible prophecy for both of these nations is coming better into focus.
It is very telling that the new Russian President Medvedev chose China for his first major state visit on his first foreign tour after his election in Russia. Many Russians are concerned about China's emergence as such a formidable regional power threatening to overshadow traditional Russian dominance. The mutual desire by Russia and China to reject the American global dominance has given the two superpowers a unique political dimension. However, this state visit by Medvedev to meet President Hu of China has a prophetic dimension as well.
Both nations are referred to in Bible prophecy. Russia is Magog in Ezekiel 38:2 and China is referred to as the Kings of the East in Revelation 16:12. According to the ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel, Russia will lead a coalition of Middle Eastern enemies of the state of Israel to destroy the Jewish state, Ezekiel 38. Revelation 16:12 reveals that China will be the leader of the Kings of the East for an End Time attack on Israel at the battle of Armageddon, Revelation 19:11-20.
Both Russia and China will have an involvement in the End Time activities. Russia, at the beginning of the seven year Tribulation Period and China, at the end of that time of judgment.

Syria says Israel will give up the Golan Heights for peace
The Syrian FM is saying that through indirect talks with Israel, Israeli PM Ehud Olmert has agreed to give up the Golan Heights back to the June 4, 1967 borders and that the Syrian government would consider such a move in order to begin serious peace talks with Israel.
The Israeli PM is denying any such commitment has been given and said Syria knows what Israel is ready to do before going to the peace talks; however, Olmert did confirm that indirect talks with Syria are being brokered by Turkey.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As Syria works to retrieved the Golan Heights and purchase military armament from Russia, the stage is being set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
For over a year, there have been indirect talks going on between Israel and Syria brokered by the Turkish PM Tayip Erdogan. On a visit to Turkey, Israeli PM Ehud Olmert persuaded the Turkish PM to work as a broker to bring about a peace agreement between Israel and Syria and Olmert offered to withdraw from Golan Heights which Erdogan passed along to Syrian President Bashur Assad. What seemed to be a dramatic announcement by the Syrian FM that Israel would indeed give up the Golan Heights, now seems to have been in accordance with these indirect talks. The Syrian announcement has caused an uproar in the body politic of Irael and among Israeli political leaders. The latest survey on the issue revealed that 65 percent of all Israelis are not willing to withdraw from any portion of the Golan Heights and they believe it is inappropriate for PM Olmert to be making such an offer.
The Last Days scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy indicates that such a giveaway, withdrawing from the Golan Heights by Israel would only enhance the sooner fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Daniel 11:40-43 reveals that Syria, referred to as the King of the North, will make an attack against Israel soon after the Rapture of the Church has taken place. According to Bible prophecy, Syria leads the way of an alignment of nations that will attack Israel and Arab and Moslem nations of today are members of that coalition.
Giving up the Golan Heights to Syria will indeed lead to a soon fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

The EU has a Doomsday vault which they call the "Noah's Ark" for food plant seeds
The European Commission President Hosea Borosso believes that the doomsday vault located on a Norwegian island in the Arctic hidden in a cave, is a massive storehouse for food plant seeds that will be preserved in the face of any natural disaster in the future.
Referred to optimistically as the "Noah's Ark" for food plants seeds, the vault will store seeds at temperatures cold enough to maintain important crops such as wheat, barley and peas for up to ten thousand years. The global seed vault has been built to store four and a half million different agricultural seed samples from around the world with the capability of keeping seeds for future generations no matter what the future may hold.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The reality that the EU has a global seed vault called the "Noah's Ark" for food plant seeds to protect basic food stuffs from future natural disaster is a precursor to the End Times scenario that is found in Bible prophecy.
The quest for survival in the future by protecting food plant seeds in a doomsday vault so there will be at least the possibility of seeds for wheat, barley and peas is a project that has been in the making for a number of years. What has been termed the "Noah's Ark" of seeds is up and operating and can house upwards of four and a half million food plant seeds preserving biodiversity in the face of global disasters in the future. This global seed vault is in reality evidence that Bible prophecy is going to be fulfilled.
In the Biblical book of Revelation, the Apostle John wrote of ecological judgment that is coming to this Earth during the seven year Tribulation Period. One of the judgments will be the destruction of a third of the trees on Earth and all of the grass. That destruction will be by fire, Revelation 8:7. Another ecological judgment will be all fresh water in lakes, ponds, and streams plus the oceans of the world will be made so that all living creatures cannot use these waters to sustain life, Revelation 8:8-11 and Revelation 16:3.
Even the "Noah's Ark" for food plant seeds will not stop Bible prophecy from being fulfilled.

A world renowned historian says that an attack on Iran is not a deterrent but an inducement
The Jerusalem Conference, a gathering of politicos, military leaders, media people and members of academia heard the world renowned historian Bernard Lewis, who delivered the closing lecture at the conference, tell the attendees that Iran, Israel's number one threat, would not consider a preemptive attack or even the threat of mutually assured destruction as a deterrent factor, but rather an inducement to attack the Jewish state.
Iran's leadership comprises a group of extreme fanatical Moslems who believe that their Messianic times have arrived and that Iran, which is not an Arab country but a Moslem nation, is ruled today by a Moslem theocracy which calculates its policies not by Iran's national interest but by what is good for Islam. Lewis said that even though Iran is actively pursuing a Nuclear Weapon of Mass Destruction (NWMD), a non-nuclear Iran is dangerous for Israel and it must be carefully watched.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The statement by Bernard Lewis, the world renowned historian, that Iran with or without a NWMD is still a threat to Israel, is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days.
The Jerusalem Conference gathers members of academia, politicos, military leaders and media people to Jerusalem on a yearly basis to mainly discuss the Jewish state of Israel's place in the Middle East and in fact, the world. The conference speakers also addressed the major threats to Israel and how they believe these threats can best be handled. Bernard Lewis, the world renown historian who addressed the Jerusalem Conference, gave his evaluation of the term that he coined the "Clash of Civilizations" with an analysis of the threat to Israel in today's world with Iran at the top of the list, which is a glimpse into the End Times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.
A number of Arab and Moslem nations today are preparing to deal with the nation they consider a cancer to the Middle East, the Jewish state of Israel. Ezekiel, Daniel, Joel and to some extent every ancient Jewish prophet, wrote about this Alignment of Nations that will try to destroy Israel in the Last Days, Ezekiel 38, Daniel 11, Joel 2 and Psalm 83.

Tony Blair says that he will be the president of Europe if they give him the power
As the EU prepares to name the first permanent president of the member-states, 27 of them now and sure to include additional states in the future, one name keeps surfacing as the very first European president, Tony Blair, the former PM of Great Britain.
French President Sarkozy, German Chancellor Merkel, Gordon Brown, current PM of the UK, and even US President George W. Bush have suggested Tony Blair would make a great president of Europe. In response to these suggestions, the former UK PM said that he is increasingly willing to put himself forward for the job if it comes with real power to make a difference.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The EU with a permanent powerful president is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days.
The former PM of the UK, Tony Blair, is today the Middle East Peace Envoy for the Quartet, the US, EU, UN and Russia. Blair has an office in Jerusalem where he has been playing a major role in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. This European leader has been holding discussions with some of his oldest allies on how he could mount a campaign to become the first full-time president of the European Council. The President of the European Council is a post created under the Lisbon Treaty and he would chair Europe's chief decision making body. The EU-Lisbon Treaty to be implemented in 2009 would set in place a perfect prototype of the political power and position that is called for in Bible prophecy.
Daniel, an ancient Jewish prophet, revealed 2,500 years ago a scenario that calls for the revival of the old Roman Empire. It will have a leader known as the Antichrist, a very powerful political leader, Daniel 9:7-24. Do not misunderstand me now, I am not saying that the EU is the revived Roman Empire and that Tony Blair is the Antichrist, what I am saying is that both the EU and Tony Blair are perfect prototypes of what Bible prophecy calls for in the Last Days.

Israel announces dramatic new Middle East support for the Red Dead Seas Canal Project
The dramatic Valley of Peace Red Dead Seas Canal Project was unveiled at the 60th Anniversary of Israel's independence by Israeli President Shimon Peres who said that a group of Israeli and foreign businessmen and banks are ready to build a 3 billion dollar canal between the Red and Dead Seas.
The Red-Dead Project will produce hydro-electric power, clean water, jobs and potentially unprecedented regional cooperation between the Israelis, Palestinians, Jordanians and Saudis and the project has already been funded without state funds. The completion of the Red-Dead Peace Canal would quadruple tourism, produce desalinated water to make the Jordan Valley into a Garden of Eden atmosphere and bring one million jobs to the area as they would also be looking for an end to the cycle of violence and death in the area.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The dramatic support for the Red-Dead Peace Canal Project from Middle East leaders and wealthy businessmen is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
During the Israeli presidential conference Facing Tomorrow, hosted by Israeli President Shimon Peres, a very wealthy Israeli businessman revealed that there was regional support for the 3 billion dollar Red-Dead Peace Canal Project. The Middle East political leaders hope the Red-Dead Peace Canal will also bring about a stability to the region and peace between the Israelis and their neighbors. There are a number of prophetic passages that come to mind as I report this news to you.
Ezekiel 47 says the Dead Sea area will become a freshwater lake and the area will look like the Garden of Eden with the beauty of the well-watered desert area. In fact, Isaiah 51:3, Ezekiel 36:35 and Joel 2:3 all reveal that the Lord will return the entire area to the Garden of Eden. There are additional side projects to the Red-Dead plan that may well provide gold and silver once it is revitalized, Ezekiel 38:13.
The dramatic support from Middle East leaders for the Red-Dead Peace Canal is indeed setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.

Palestinians across the Middle East mark the catastrophe of the founding of the state of Israel
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians stopped to mark the al Nakba, the catastrophe of the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel in the Middle East with marches to the borders of Israel and protests saying this is a reminder of the long and glorious struggle of the Palestinian people.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas in a televised speech said there are two peoples living on this beloved land, one celebrates independence and the other feels pain of the memory of the Nakbah, the catastrophe.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As Palestinians in Israel and across the Middle East mark the Nakbah, the catastrophe of Israel's founding, Bible prophecy moves closer to complete fulfillment.
Hundreds and thousands of Palestinians in Israel and across the Middle East stopped to remember today the Nakbah, the catastrophe as they refer to it, of the establishment of the Jewish state of Israel with a pledge to never stop the struggle for the right to have a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital and all the Palestinian refugees able to return to their home in Israel. Palestinians say that for sixty years since the founding of the Jewish state of Israel in 1948, the Jews have occupied what was once a Palestinian state and over 700,000 Palestinians were forced out of their state to make way for the Jewish state. However, a true account of history does not reveal that there was ever a Palestinian state in the Middle East and that the Palestinian people left in 1948 to allow the Palestinian militants and a number of Arab states to push the Jewish state into the Mediterranean Sea.
The ancient Jewish prophets wrote 2,500 years ago of this struggle between the Jews and the Palestinians, known in Biblical times as the descendants of two brothers, Jacob and Esau. Genesis 25-37 records the division of these two peoples and Ezekiel, Malachi, Jeremiah and Obadiah foretold this conflict would intensify in the Last Days. In fact, Obadiah reveals the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would not be resolved until the Messiah, Jesus Christ, returns to the Earth.

World leaders gather in Jerusalem for the 60th anniversary celebration of the Jewish state of Israel
Israeli President Shimon Peres has gathered together in Jerusalem world leaders, past and present, for the 60th anniversary of the founding of the modern-day state of Israel even as Iranian President Ahmadinejad says that Israel is dying and that the 60th anniversary celebrations are an attempt to prevent its annihilation.
Iran does not recognize Israel and Ahmadinejad claims that the nations in the Middle East hate this sinister, fabricated, Zionist regime and will destroy it if the smallest opportunity is given to them. President Bush, the keynote speaker at the Facing Tomorrow Conference in Jerusalem, said the US will stand by Israel and the former Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger, said if something is not done about Iran, there will be a multinational proliferation of nuclear weapons with catastrophic potential.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The central focus of the 60th anniversary celebration of Israel has a dramatic significance prophetically.
With world leaders gathering in Jerusalem to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the modern-day Jewish state Israel, there seems to be a dual focus for the distinguished guests attending the celebration as well as those watching from afar. One focus is the miracle of a people, the Jewish people, being gathered from the four corners of the Earth where they had been scattered for 2,000 years and becoming a nation in the land of their forefathers. This has never happened before in the history of the world. The other focus is the radical rhetoric coming from Iran's President Ahmadinejad claiming that the nations of the Middle East hate the Jewish state and will soon annihilate them and no celebration can stop that from happening.
Bible prophecy is plain on both of these issues. The Jewish state will appear in the Last Days, according to Ezekiel 34, 36, 37. On the issue of the Middle East nations moving to annihilate Israel, Ezekiel 38, Daniel 11 and Psalm 83 do indeed name all the Middle East states that will come to annihilate the Jewish state of Israel.
The 60th anniversary celebration of Israel's rebirth is evidence that Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.

The top US Spy Chief warns Congress about China, Russia and OPEC oil producing countries
The US National Director of Intelligence, Michael McConnel, spoke of his concerns in the annual assessment of potential threats when addressing Congress recently and suggested that the threats in which economic matters join terrorism, nuclear proliferation and computer networking vulnerabilities were the top security issues.
McConnel said he was concerned about the financial capabilities of Russia, China and the OPEC countries and the potential use of their market access to exert financial leverage to political ends.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The intelligence assessment by the US chief spy referring to the threat from China, Russia and the OPEC oil producing nations is a page out of Bible prophecy for the Last Days.
An intelligence report that focuses on China, Russia and the OPEC oil producing states has made it clear that these three different geopolitical entities can use economics to affect politics in the world. The world is today watching Russia and its leader, Vladimir Putin, take control of energy sources that supply Europe and has positioned itself to impact geopolitical activities in Europe. At the same time, China with its almost twenty-five percent of the world's total population is developing a major military force with control of all the sea lanes from the OPEC nations to the refineries in China. OPEC oil producing nations can and are manipulating political activities through its control of oil production supplying the needs of nations with ever increasing needs.
These three political entities will be major players in the End Time scenario that is found in Bible prophecy. Russia leads a coalition of nations against the Jewish state of Israel in the Last Days, Ezekiel 38:2, where Magog is the political name for modern-day Russia. OPEC nations will be the nations that form the alliance led by Russia, Ezekiel 38:2-6. China is referred to as the Kings of the East, Revelation 16:12, that brings a mighty force to Jerusalem to form an army of nations to stop the Return of Jesus Christ.

Ultra-Orthodox Jews are expanding the population of the West Bank by large numbers
The Jewish settler population in Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, is growing twice as fast as the rest of the population in other areas in Israel and the Ultra-Orthodox community is responsible for the major portion of the annual growth in these disputed territories.
In the areas where the Ultra-Orthodox move in to establish their young families, the annual growth rate is five to six times more than Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv's growth respectively and twice as much as the growth of many other Jewish settlements.
The Ultra-Orthodox rabbis sanctioned living in these settlements assuming that these territories would be annexed to Israel sometime in the near future.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The expanding population of Ultra-Orthodox Jews in Judea and Samaria is in essence a page out of Bible prophecy for these religious Jews and the land of their forefathers.
Since the end of the Six Day War in June of 1967, Jews both religious and secular have been moving into the area of Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, building their homes and raising their families. These disputed territories have increased in population over the years to nearly 500,000 people in two hundred Jewish settlements.
Now, the Israeli government is reporting that the fastest growth of population in any area of Israel is this area referred to as the West Bank, but known Biblically as Judea and Samaria.
As I mentioned, this report is a page out of the prophetic passages in God's Word. The Ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel wrote 2,500 years ago that in the Last Days God would give the land of the forefathers of the Jewish people to the Jews of today, Ezekiel 36.
Ezekiel the prophet was actually told to preach to the land that would bring forth man and animal and multiply them on the land, Ezekiel 36:11. Ezekiel 36:6-22 reveals what God would do with the land for the Jews and in verse 22 tells us that would be done for His holy namesake.

A landmark archaeological discovery found in the British museum gives proof of Old Testament truth
An expert on ancient Babylon, Dr. Michael Jersey of Vienna, has discovered a small clay tablet located in the British museum that is a landmark archaeological discovery and provides proof of the Old Testament's veracity.
Though the tablet was unearthed near Baghdad in 1920, only recently has it been deciphered by Dr. Jersey which led to the discovery of the records of a donation of gold by the chief eunuch of King Nebuchadnezzar. Dr. Jersey quickly consulted Jeremiah 39 where he found the man's name listed a s one of Nebuchadnezzar's top ministers who actually took part in the destruction of the first temple in Jerusalem some 2,500 years ago.

An ancient Babylonian tablet found in the British museum is evidence that the nation of Iraq will be destroyed forever according to Bible prophecy.
A recent discovery in the British museum by an expert on ancient Babylon gives a direct link to the Bible and the Babylonian history under King Nebuchadnezzar. The Babylonian tablet gives the name of one of Nebuchadnezzar's top ministers which is the same name of Nebuchadnezzar's men found in Jeremiah 39. This old Testament passage used by the archaeologist is the account of King Nebuchadnezzar's siege of the city of Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple in 586 BC.
It was that destruction of the Jewish temple in Jerusalem 2,500 years ago that God said would be the reason He would destroy the Babylonians, the modern-day Iraqis, forever, Jeremiah 50:28, 51:11. However, before the Babylonians and the literal city of Babylon are destroyed, this nation and the city of Babylon will become the headquarters for the one-world, economic, political, governmental system led by Antichrist, Revelation 18.
Of course, that war-torn nation must be rebuilt and become the power center of the world before the destruction as recorded in Revelation 16:17-21.

The nation of Israel celebrates its 60th birthday
With flags waving, fireworks exploding and families having picnics, the almost five and a half million Jews in Israel are celebrating their sixtieth birthday, a modern day nation of people who have actually been a nation, although scattered around the world for over 4,000 years.
Addressing one of the many celebrations, the speaker of the Knesset, the parliament of the Jewish state, Dalia Itzik said there are nations richer than Israel, nations quieter than Israel and bigger than Israel but there is no nation in the world like the state of Israel. The threats to Israel on their sixtieth birthday are from without and within. The state is on the verge of a political crisis and yet the Jewish nation moves into their seventh decade with a hope for peace in the land of their forefathers.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
As the modern day Jewish state of Israel celebrates its sixtieth birthday, the stage is set for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
Many non-religious Jews in Israel today recognize the hand of God in the regathering of the Jewish people back into the land of their forefathers. The religious Jews believe they are in this land because of the promises of God in the Bible, promises made to His chosen people, the Jewish people. This mix of non-religious and religious Jews make up a nation in our world today that indeed is a tangible testimony to the reality of a true and mighty God who keeps His promises to His people.
Over 2,500 years ago, the ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel was told by God that at the time of the End, He would gather His scattered people together into one place, Ezekiel 34:15-30 and Ezekiel 37:7, the bones coming together in the valley of dry bones. Ezekiel was also told in this prophecy that the Jewish people would be restored as a nation, that would be the skin covering the reconnected bones, Ezekiel 37:8. Ezekiel 36, thirty five times, speaks of the Jews in the land of their forefathers and God said He would do this, bring them back into their land, for His holy namesake, Ezekiel 36:22.

The nation of Israel comes to a stop to remember the men and women who have died defending the Jewish state
Since 1860 when the first Jewish settlers began establishing Jewish neighborhoods outside the Jerusalem city walls, 22,437 men and women have been killed in defense of the land of Israel.
During the ceremonies to mark and to mourn the fallen soldiers of Israel, this Remembrance Day, on the eve of Israel's Day of Independence, the entire nation stopped and honored the heroes as the nationwide sirens sounded to call attention to the day and to the fallen and their bereaved families. Israel's President Shimon Peres said that on this day, the Israeli soldiers have wrought a miracle in human history and made their country a peace seeking state.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The 22,437 fallen soldiers of Israel have indeed participated in a modern day miracle as foretold in Bible prophecy.
Once a year, the nation of Israel stops for two minutes to honor the fallen of all the wars of Israel since the late 1800's and this year is no exception on Remembrance Day. As the sirens sounded today, the entire Jewish nation stood to remember men and women who have given their lives as part of a miracle that brought the Jewish people back together from all over the world. Some may say, well how do you call that a miracle if so many Jewish people have been killed over these many years of watching this miracle come to pass? It is a miracle how the Lord searched the world for all of His chosen people and found and gathered them back into their land. It is a miracle how God once again gave this land, the land of their forefathers, back to the Jewish people.
It is a miracle because 2,000 years before the fact, God gave men this scenario for the Last Days, a scenario that is now coming to pass right before our very eyes. I'm talking about Jewish prophets like Ezekiel in chapter 37 and the prophecy of the Valley of Dry Bones. In addition to that, Jeremiah 31 where He said I will find my people and bring them back into their land.
The ancient Jewish prophets were right and will be right in the other prophecies for the Last Days yet to be fulfilled.

75% of Israel's population believe they will be in a major war within the next five years
Seventy-five percent of Israel's population believe they will be at war with at least one Arab state within the next five year and seventy percent of Israelis believe there will be no agreement with the Palestinians in the near future, or in fact in the distant future.
A nation that stands on the brink of its seventh decade of independence is worried about security issues with the most serious threat that the Israelis face today believed to be the Iranian nuclear program. The mass majority of the Jewish state, seventy-five percent, say no to giving up the Golan Heights and eighty-three percent oppose handing over the Old City of Jerusalem, which includes the Temple Mount, to the Palestinians even for peace.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Israel on the brink of its seventh decade of independence also believes it is on the brink of a major war which is confirmed by Bible prophecy.
The miracle of the rebirth of a Jewish nation among the nations of the world sixty years ago must be noticed by all students of prophecy. The fact is, this type of an event has never happened before in all of history, the regathering of a people scattered across the entire world. These regathered people, the Jewish people now living in their original homeland in a prosperous nation for sixty years; however they have much concern about the future and the potential for a war with the Arab world.
This concern by the Israelis is well founded in the ancient Scriptures written by the ancient Jewish prophets. Almost every Jewish prophet, more than twenty in number, pre-wrote the history that the Jewish state faces in what they believe will happen in the next five years. Daniel, in Daniel 11:40-46, Ezekiel, in chapter 38 and Joel in Joel 2 all speak of a massive Arab army that will attack the Jewish state. Micah in chapter 7 says that the enemies of Israel will be destroyed by God when they attack the Jewish state. However, before that victory, terrible time will come upon the Jewish state of Israel as revealed in the recent survey.

Scientists say that the global oil reserves could run out within four years
There is a group of scientists based in London that have challenged the major review of global oil reserves and they are warning that oil supplies will start to run out in only four years time, a report that governments and oil companies are not ready to admit according to the scientists.
Dr. Colin Campbell, the head of this delegation of scientists says that world consumption of oil will catch and then out strip the discovery of new reserves even as oil reserves are depleted affecting the world economy.
A survey of the four countries with the biggest reported reserves Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, and Kuwait reveals major concerns especially since consumption is increasing by 2 to 3 million barrels a day, each year.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The depletion of global oil reserves within the next four years may well speed up the fulfillment of the End Times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.
Two-thirds of the world's oil reserves lie in the Middle East and increasing demand will have to be met with massive increases in supply from the region. Scientists now believe that within four years global oil reserves will begin to run out.
This report if correct could have a major impact on the Middle East region and in particular the major oil producers in the region Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Iran. In reality, the sale of oil by these middle eastern nations has been the key factor in the influence of these nations who lead the war against the Jewish state in the end times scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy.
Psalm 83, Daniel 11, and Ezekiel 38 reveal the Middle Eastern nations that attack Israel in the Last Days. In the book Joel chapter 2 there is a description of the mighty militia that will go to Jerusalem to set up its world empire.
Daniel 9:27 and 11:45 reveal that a world economic leader will come to power. Revelation 18 says that he will be headquartered in the midst of these oil rich nations, nations about to deplete their oil resources.
The time seems short until Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.
Dr. Colin Campbell, the head of this delegation of scientists says that world consumption of oil will catch and then out strip the discovery of new reserves even as oil reserves are depleted affecting the world economy.
A survey of the four countries with the biggest reported reserves Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, and Kuwait reveals major concerns especially since consumption is increasing by 2 to 3 million barrels a day, each year.

The UN, EU, US and Russia tell Israel to stop building Jewish settlements
At a meeting in London the Quartet, which is the UN, US, the EU and Russia have told Israel to stop building more Jewish settlements because it is causing the Middle East peace process to collapse, a statement that is confirmed by the PA negotiators who say the biggest hindrance to a deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians is the Jewish settlement issue.
UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon reading from a joint statement said the Quartet expressed its deep concern at Israel's continued settlement building in Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, and called for all outposts built since March 2001 to be dismantled. The Quartet's special Middle East envoy, Tony Blair said that intense efforts are ongoing behind the scenes and may bear fruit later this year.

A call by the Quartet to stop all building in the Jewish settlements of Judea and Samaria is a precursor to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy for the End Times.
At the most recent meeting of the Quartet, which is made up of the UN, the US, EU and Russia, which took place in London, a joint statement, the most harsh to this time, called for the Jewish settlements to be dismantled and no more building on these settlements has a tone that even the Israeli government seems to be rejecting. The Jewish settlers who have built these communities in Judea and Samaria, the West Bank, say no foreign nations or organization of nations has a right seem to tell them where they can or cannot live in the land that God has given to them in these days.
Bible prophecy actually confirms the statements by the Jewish settlers. Ezekiel 34 reveals that 18 times God said to the Jewish people He would gather them from the four corners of the Earth and give them the land that is in question. Ezekiel 36 says they will prosper in this land and the Lord gave them this land in Judea and Samaria for His holy namesake. He swore by His name that He would give the Jews this land in the Last Days, Ezekiel 36:22.

The state of Israel comes to a standstill to remember six million people who died because they were Jewish
For two minutes, the sirens sound across the entire nation of Israel and the Jewish people came to a complete standstill in honor of the six million Jews that died during WWII, a number that was one third of the entire population of the Jewish people in the 1930's and 40's.
Holocaust Remembrance Day is a 24 hour commemoration of the Jews who died during the Holocaust and the celebration of those who survived the Holocaust, approximately 250 thousand Jews who now live in Israel. This Remembrance Day, this year, coming at a time when the elimination of Jews is part of a strategy of the Moslem world and at a time when there are reports of a rise in Antisemitism around the world.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Holocaust Remembrance Day is a reminder of the destiny of the Jewish people in the Last Days according to Bible prophecy.
As the nation of Israel stopped and remembered the six million Jews who perished during WWII, there is also the lingering thought of even more persecution to come for the Jews in the near future as indicated by the rise in Antisemitism around the world. In a recent report that revealed the new strategy of the militant Moslems, there was a call to eliminate the Jews and Middle East terrorism is evidence that that strategy is at work. The Bible is full of the history of the Jews and their continual struggle to stay alive down through the centuries. That history is the basis upon which one can understand how Bible prophecy on this subject will be fulfilled.
Zechariah, an ancient Jewish prophet, wrote that two out of every three Jews will be killed during the seven year Tribulation Period yet to come, Zechariah 13:8. Many other Biblical prophets also wrote of that slaughter of the Jewish people during that time of Jacob's Trouble in the future.
Holocaust Remembrance Day is a stark reminder that Bible prophecy will indeed be fulfilled.
