The Iran War against Israel Has Begun
August 21, 2011
The elimination of Israel is a primary goal of the Iranian regime of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Ahmadinejad believes he is in direct contact with the Twelfth Imam (the Mahdi), the Muslim Messiah. The Twelfth Imam has, supposedly, directed him to eliminate Israel, to dominate the Middle East, and, then, to take control of the world, according to the Hadith (Muslim writings on par with Muslim scripture). This is what is driving Ahmadinejad to pursue nuclear weapons in spite of sanctions and “attacks” by Israel on centrifuges and computers which control the centrifuges.
But Ahmadinejad is not waiting on the arrival of nuclear capability to go after Israel. In fact, he has already begun an Iranian war against the Jewish nation. This war is currently being waged via Hizbullah and Hamas.
As part of that war, Israel has seen an increase in rocket attacks from Gaza in recent weeks. At least one person has been killed in the attacks and dozens wounded, two of whom are in critical condition.
It turns out that this barrage of more than 90 missiles from Gaza, launched against a million Israeli civilians, is actually a follow-up to the attack on Israeli soldiers that took place on August 18. That attack was carried out by gunmen who killed 8 Israelis and injured 40. It turns out that this act of aggression in southern Israel was planned, orchestrated, and funded by Iran, with Hizbullah participation. In other words, the missile attacks and the assault by gunmen were coordinated ones in Iran’s current war against Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu stated that Israel’s response would be “commensurate with the breach of its sovereignty,” while Defense Minister Ehud Barak revealed that “the source of the terror is Gaza.”
However, while the source does appear to be Gaza, the real origin of these latest attacks is Iran. It is true that the operations emanated from Gaza, but Iran, not only made it all possible, but pushed for them to happen.
Prime Minister Netanyahu met late Saturday night with 8 of his trusted ministers to determine how to respond. One government official declared that the government hopes to avoid an operation in Gaza. However, the statement was made prior to the barrage of at least five more missiles on Be’er Sheva that killed one and wounded several others. In a warning to the Jewish nation, a Hamas spokesman threatened Israel with a sharp reprisal if Gaza were attacked.
According to Defense Minister Barak, Israel is hitting back, having killed “most of the perpetrators . . . and the senior terrorists responsible for the attack.” However, ultimately, Israel will need to make the decision to go after “the head of the snake.” That is, Israeli leaders can only put off the inevitable for so long; they will need to launch a military attack on Iran. When that occurs, it could be the beginning of exciting end-times fulfillment. How so?
The Bible predicts a seven-year treaty with Israel, co-signed by ten national leaders that will begin the clock ticking on the final seven years leading to the return of Christ. It appears from Scripture that five of those leaders will be from Arab states and five from European nations.
Since Iran has blocked “peace” talks between Israel and the Palestinians (who will not be part of the end-times treaty with Israel), one would strongly suspect that the Persian terrorist regime would also do everything in its power to obstruct any attempted treaty between Israel and Middle Eastern nations. Hence, for Scripture to be fulfilled in that way, the Iranian regime will need to be deposed.
Another telling factor that the Ahmadinejad government will need to be removed is that, in conjunction with the end-times treaty with Israel, the Bible reveals that world leaders will proclaim, “Peace and security!” (as per 1 Thessalonians 5:3). There is no way this scenario would emerge while the biggest fomenter of terrorism in the world reigns; thus, Ahmadinejad and his regime will need to go down.
While there is a growing opposition movement in Iran, which will be fueled even more with the (coming) deposition of Bashar al-Assad of Syria by Syrian protestors, it alone will not bring down Ahmadinejad. (The movement tried doing that in 2009, but Ahmadinejad brutally pushed it underground.) It will need a big “push”. This push will likely emanate from a military attack by Israel.
After all, Israeli leaders know their time is running out to halt Iran’s nuclear progress; for Iran will soon have enough enriched uranium to make at least two nuclear bombs. The Jewish leadership also understands that when Ahmadinejad acquires these nuclear bombs, he will not hesitate to use them on the Israel. Thus, Israel needs to go after Iran before it obtains that capability. When it does, the Iranian opposition movement will likely be emboldened by the opportunity and by the courageous example of the Syrian protestors and take full advantage of the resulting chaos of Israel’s strike.
At that point, the regime will most likely be deposed. When that occurs, the entire region will be changed, as Iran’s departure from the terrorism scene will adversely affect other terrorist entities (such as Hamas, Hizbullah, and even al-Qaeda), and the region will then feel empowered to bring down terrorism. This will then set the stage for the treaty with Israel and for “peace and security”—in the region and in the world.
Iran’s current war on Israel appears to be baiting the Jewish nation to come after it. It appears that one day very soon the terrorist regime will be very sorry it enticed Israel in that way. On that day, the regime’s loss will be the region’s gain. It will also be the beginning for the fulfillment of end-times Bible prophecy. So, keep looking up!
