JD: Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas did attend the funeral of the late Shimon Peres. This was a very significant move on the part of President Abbas. David Dolan the man who covers the Middle East as our broadcast partner tells us how significant it was.
DD: It was significant that Abbas came; he was invited to come to the funeral. He decided as you say against a lot of opposition inside the Palestinian political world, to do that. But, the peace process hasn’t worked and Hamas is still very much a major player.
Of course it was
Benjamin Netanyahu that warned both Peres and Ariel Sharon that the withdrawal from Gaza in
2005 would in fact only strengthen Hamas, and strengthen the war against Israel and
would not lead to a revival of the peace process. Of course Rabin was also a
partner of Peres and they worked together on the Oslo Accords. But on the Gaza withdrawal
it was Ariel Sharon and Peres, it didn’t’ work, Netanyahu was right, but he didn’t
gloat at the funeral by any means, over that; he just spoke very positively about
Peres. And as I said they were very close friends.

reporting on the activities and the reactions of the Palestinian people to the
death of Shimon Peres.
We report this
information because it is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
Palestinian reaction to the death of the Israeli founding
father and political leader Shimon Peres gives us insight into the stage
setting for the fulfillment of Bible prophecy.
The Israeli Palestinian conflict has been going on now for
some 4,000 years since the birth of Jacob and Esau found in Genesis 25. This
conflict will continue until Jesus Christ comes back to the earth. And in fact
Malachi 1 says, the Palestinians will return and rebuild. The Bible tells us
that God will call their borders the borders of wickedness. Ezekiel 35 says
that they will kill the Jews and then steal their land.
Ultimately, the
destiny of the Palestinian people is found in the book of Obadiah, where the
Lord says they will be as if they have never been. The fact is Palestinian
people have more judgment pronounced against them than any other people group
in the entire Word of God.
The Palestinians ultimately accordingly to Obadiah will be
wiped out forever. Palestinians who are happy for the death of the founding
father of Israel Shimon Peres is actually evidence and is really setting the
stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
