Israel is seriously considering an Iranian military strike

According to top US officials and experts in the field, Israel is right now seriously considering taking unilateral military action to stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon of mass destruction and Israel's time frame for action is growing shorter.

The report indicates that the international sanctions are not now working and must be intensified while at the same time, the new incoming Israeli government under Binyamin Netanyahu will have to make a decision on unilateral military action against Iran and do it very soon.

Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News

A preemptive military strike by Israel on Iran before the Islamic republic acquires a nuclear weapon of mass destruction to use on the Jewish state is a precursor to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.

Iran has for a number of years claimed that they can have a nuclear weapon of mass destruction to use against the state of Israel and that they have the delivery system in place to attack Israel at any location they choose. In recent days, it seems that the entire global intelligence community have all agreed that indeed Iran could have a nuclear weapon of mass destruction sometime this year. Israeli officials say that they cannot afford to wait until Iran has a nuclear weapon of mass destruction - they must launch a preemptive military strike on Iran's nuclear weapons program.

This threatening scenario is most definitely a precursor to the end time scenario that can be found in Bible prophecy. Bible prophecy mentions Iran by name using its Biblical name of Persia found in Ezekiel 38:5. Until 1936, Iran was actually known as Persia and even today they speak the Persian language. In Zephaniah 2:4 it mentions Gaza, the location of Hamas, and in Psalm 83:7 it mentions Tyre, modern-day Lebanon, the headquarters of Hezbullah. Hamas and Hezbullah are the two main surrogates for Iran in the Middle East - one in the north, Hezbullah, and and other in the south, Hamas.

Israel is indeed making ready to attack Iran because Bible prophecy will be fulfilled.
