Dear friends:

Several years ago a vision from a New Zealand evangelist was reported that said the rapture would occur after Arafat's death and a period of chaos amongst the Palestinians.  No time line was given.

Arafat died November 11, 2004, almost three years ago.

The chaos amongst the Palestinians has never been worse.  They are increasingly killing each other.  They are infused with a spirit of hate and of murder, not just for the Israelis, but for each other.  They have been in a self-destruct mode for years, as has the whole Muslim world, but it is getting worse.

The below report is from israelnationalnews.com.  In addition to describing the latest Palestinian-on-Palestinian violence, the article reports that U.S. weapons given to Fatah have been confiscated by Hamas.  Is anyone surprised?  Hello!  How can any nation be so stupid as to give weapons to either Fatah or Hamas?  You know they will ultimately be used against the Jews.

Shalom,

Jim

An excerpt from www.israelnationalnews.com:

The civil war between Hamas and Fatah terrorists raged on in Gaza Wednesday, with Hamas on the verge of victory. Hamas seized thousands of weapons and vehicles granted to Fatah by the Oslo Accords.
 
A Hamas spokesman said that a decision had been taken to kill all of Fatah’s leading officials, who he referred to as “dogs beholden to their Israeli masters.”
 
Hamas has distributed a list of at least 30 Fatah officials it seeks to have killed for complicity, they say, in a US-backed plan to topple Hamas. The first name is senior Fatah terrorist Mohammed Dahlan, who holds the position of National Security Adviser in the Fatah-Hamas PA unity government. He has been hiding out in Egypt for the past two months. Many of the other Fatah men on the list have fled Gaza.
 
Hamas took over nearly all Fatah positions in Gaza and confiscated thousands of rifles, tons of ammunition and armored jeeps and APCs supplied by the US, Egypt and Israel over the years.
 
Eight Fatah men were killed Wednesday morning defending the home of senior Fatah official Mahr Mekhdad, who escaped the fighting. About 200 Hamas terrorists surrounded the home of Yassir Arafat confidant Nabil Shaath, shooting one of his body guards.
