Most have noticed the news that Iran is sending some ships into the Atlantic Ocean to take up positions off the East Coast of the US.
 
Now this may sound strange. In the ''back of my mind'' for the past several months there has been the thought that 'the way' Iran would attack the US would be via ships off our East Coast. Then I read about it in the news.
 
It may not be for this year, but I feel that is the way it will happen. The current Iranian deployment of ships is just a ''dry run'' to see what reaction they might evoke.
 
I have felt that Iran will use its short range missiles, hidden on some of these ships, to launch against the US.
 
The ''time to target'' would be too short to intercept them.........unless the US deploys ships with interceptor missiles off our East Coast.
 
With the threat of North Korea, and its missile technology, the Pentagon has decided to move up the deployment of interceptor missiles off the WEST coast of the US..........but not the East Coast.
 
Iran currently does not have the long range missile capability to launch from their own country to reach the US mainland. But ships a relatively short distance from the East Coast could reach the major cities of the US in a matter of minutes using their Scud missiles.
 
There are verses in some of the Old Testament books, Isaiah I think, that show that 'Persia' will launch ''arrows'' that will ''hit their target, precisely........not missing''.....against Babylon! Iran is located where ancient Persian was.
 
If that happened and the US was not able to retaliate for some reason then Israel would be left in a condition that Ezekiel calls '' a land of 'un-walled' villages''.........or you might say 'un-defended' towns. Thus again we would have the existential threat against Israel's existence..........some time in the future.
 
ps If someone like Teddy Roosevelt was President he would order the US navy to destroy those ships that Iran is sending off our coast. But alas, because of the depravity of the nation, God has given us over to leaders who are naive to say it nicely.
