John:

I, like so many others are dumbfounded about the reversal of President
Bush regarding his stand for Israel.   On the surface, it just  does not
make for good logic.  To force Israel to give back everything they have
gained since 1949 is tantamount to suicide for Israel.  However, we do
not know all that is taking place in the walls of the White House, and
for reasons that we often don't consider.

First off, we know that Israel will absolutely not allow Iran to develop
nuclear weapons, and Israel will wipe out their nuclear facilities
eventually, and they are even now training for this.  Iran already knows
this, and in alliance with Russia and other muslim nations will one day
attack Israel (Ezek. 38, 39), perhaps soon before the Tribulation Period
begins.  This would probably bring about the anti-christ.

President Bush is probably aware of this through intelligence sources,
and may have even gotten a strong message indirectly from President
Putin.  Do you think President Bush would risk nuclear retaliation from
Russia by defending Israel?

Secondly, President Bush may have received a threat from the muslim
terrorists that if we do not support their cause against Israel they
will detonate weapons of mass destruction in Iraq where our troops are,
or in the heart of  the United States.  It is well known that there are
numerous sleeper cells in our country that can mobilize whenever they
get the command to do so.  We have no way of protecting ourselves
against this threat.

President Bush may have also been threatened by the terrorists of the
possibility of detonating a nuclear device high in the atmosphere above
America to knock out all of the electricity, putting the whole country
back into the 19th century.  Iran just tested rockets for such a
scenario.  Do you believe President Bush would risk that?  Would you?

You may say well, President Bush is a Christian and should depend on God
to protect America.  Why should God now protect America when He has been
kicked out?

These are very perilous times in which we live, and we as believers need
to be watching and listening for the Lord's call, but we have work to do
in the time remaining.

Keep looking up,
