I just saw this article in the J'lem Post. It looks like many Israelis do realize how up the creek they are. The most telling part to me in is para.6 where she says "We need someone who will give us hope". I'd say the stage is set for the Antichrist to ride to the rescue.

Also, I understand Britain is now going to open their UFO files. If there is an authentic, confirmed UFO sighting on a large scale, I think we'll know the Rapture is at hand.
