"Hezbollah-Israel Conflict Intensifies - All Out War Soon??"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
Wow!  Looks like major conflict dead ahead for Israel and Hezbollah/Iran.
 
Ambassadors from various countries have been told by their governments to leave Lebanon immediately.  Canada is preparing to evacuate 45,000 of its citizens from Lebanon.  Kuwait has ordered Kuwaitis to leave Lebanon.
 
The U.S. is concerned that the Israeli Iron Dome could be overwhelmed during an all-out war with Hezbollah.
 
There are reports that Hezbollah will target Israel's electric grid - specifically the transformers - which could take a year to replace.  Seems the head of Israel's electrical system planning thinks hits the their electric grid would be devastating...his remarks were countered by Israel's Energy Minister.  Hopefully, Israel does have these back-up energy sources.
 
Hezbollah released a video of Israeli 'sensitive' targets.  The video showed Israeli military and civilian locations in several cities. Israel responded to the surveillance video with a warning of all-out war.
 
The Egyptians have been in contact with the U.S. as the possibility of war escalates:  A senior Egyptian official warned the U.S. of "disastrous consequences for all parties" if war breaks out.  And they warned the U.S. not to underestimate Nasrallah and his military operations.
 
Hal Turner is reporting that the ambassadors of Italy, France, England, Sweden and Germany have been told by their governments to leave Lebanon immediately as war is imminent.
 
Plus I have a news article about comments from the U.N.'s Guterres warning a catastrophe.  And Iran's U.N. representative said Israel's time for self-annihilation has come.
 
And I added a list of X/Twitter comments.
 
Then I looked at the the possibility of this escalating into the Gog and Magog War.
 
Also, Watchwoman 65 has a very good YouTube video.
 
 
 
Canada/Kuwait and Evacuation:
 
"Canada is preparing a massive evacuation of its citizens from Lebanon should a full-scale war break out between Israel and Hezbollah..the Canadian military was drawing up plans to evacuated 45,000 people from Lebanon.
Canada said preparing to evacuate 45,000 citizens from Lebanon amid war fears | The Times of Israel
 
"The Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs has ordered an urgent evacuation of the territory neighboring Israel due to fears of an escalation and the outbreak of a full-scale war between the Lebanese terrorist organization Hezbollah and Israel."
Kuwait orders urgent evacuation of citizens in Lebanon
 
Iron Dome:
 
Hezbollah has some 150,000 rockets.  Plus other weapons supplied by Iran.
 
 

Israel's Electric Grid:

In this June 21, 2024 article, "Israel is not prepared for the damage its electricity infrastructure would sustain if a full-scale war were to break out with Hezbollah, the head of the company, NOGA (Independent System Operator Ltd) CEO Shaul Goldstein responsible for planning the country's electrical systems warned on Thursday..."We are not in a good situation, and we are not prepared for a real war.  We are living in a fantasy...After 72 hours without electricity, it will be impossible to live here."  Beirut's power grid is "largely identical to Israel's" so Nasrallah could find out how to neutralize Israel's grid by asking about Beirut's nuclear grid."
 
Some are calling these remarks 'irresponsible' stating that Israel has other sources for generating electricity like gas rigs, diesel fuel reserves, huge reserves of coal and renewable energy sources.  "Our reserves of energy sources are dispersed in classified and protected locations. There are many other actions we have taken to ensure regular energy supply, which cannot be detailed."
 
"The Shiite militia is believed to possess some 150,000 rockets that it could use to target Israeli infrastructure."
 
Hezbollah Drone Footage of Targets:
 
"Hezbollah, on June 18, released drone footage claiming to show surveillance of Israel's Haifa city.  In a 9 minute and 31 second video, Hezbollah claimed to show "sensitive Israeli targets.  Hezbollah sources told Al Jazeera that the footage is their message to Israel that they have a bank of Israeli targets."
 
Egyptian Ongoing Efforts to Prevent All-Out War:
 
"Officials from the Egyptian foreign ministry and intelligence services carries out contacts with the United States to contain the Israeli signals of escalation...The contacts with Washington focused on the disastrous consequences for all parties should was erupt on the Lebanese front..The Egyptians stressed to the U.S. side the need to "deal seriously with the statements of Hezbollah Secretary Gayyed Hassan Hasrallah and not to underestimate the military operations that Hezbollah might carry out..."

Hal Turner Article:
 
He covers much of the above news in his article.  Along with some new information:  He reported on the ambassadors of Italy, France, Sweden, England, and Germany being "instructed by their governments to evacuated Lebanon immediately because Intelligence information says "war is imminent". 
"The Saudi Arabian Embassy in London warns of the risk of world war after the announcement  of an imminent Israeli invasion of South Lebanon:  "Is is important that everyone understands the danger that awaits us.  the conflict will not remain regional, but will very quickly become international."
 
"Iran and Taliban are now discussing "joint action" against Israel."

Lots of news June 22, 2024:
 
"If the deadly and destructive Israel-Hamas war wasn't already enough, there is a growing fear of a much broader confrontation between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah."
 
And Iran is threatening to join the war in Hezbollah's defense.  IF an Israeli military offensive into Lebanon became like a "Gaza" attack, "such actions would force the conflict further up the escalation ladder, compelling a now much more capable Hezbollah to rain its ballistic missiles on Israeli cities, including Tel Avai.  U.S. officials are voicing serious concerns that Israel's sophisticated air defense systems will be overwhelmed by Hezbollah's fire power..."
 
"It seems that, for Israel and Lebanon, the time for politics is ending and the time for war is almost upon us."
 
"US struggles to half spiraling Israel-Hezbollah conflict.  A harder push by the U.S. for Israel and Hezbollah to reach a truce has so far failed to halt an escalating conflict at the Lebanese border that increasingly appears headed toward a full-blown war."
 
Hezbollah's mission is to destroy the state of Israel.  Just like Hamas' charter.
 
"...a Large war could drag in the U.S. and other Iran-backed militias.  It would devastate Lebanon.  It would devastate Israel."
 
Nasrallah said that "If a war was imposed on Lebanon, the resistance will fight without any constraints, without any rules, without any ceiling....The rhetoric on both sides...only renewed existing fears that a full-blown war could be approaching, and that the U.S. will be unable to stop it."
 
"Netanyahu had a highly public spat this week with the White House over what he claimed was a holdup of arms sales to Israel..."
 
"...there is a good chance that Netanyahu's government, if it stays in power, will move into Lebanon against U.S. advice because Israel sees it as a defensive strike to return its displaces residents and ensure another Oct. 7 attack can never happen again."
 
Hezbollah is Iran's main proxy and has stored up tens of thousands of rockets.
 
"It the U.S. were to halt all arms sales, Israel could struggle to prosecute the war...."
A retired special forces U.S. army colonel, said "Israel believes it has a "righteous position" to defend itself after Oct. 7 and could procure weapons through other channels.  The U.S. could cut off all arms supplies, but I still don't think that would stop Israel from doing it if they truly believe in it."
U.N.Guterres Comments:
 
The United Nations secretary-general Antonoio Guterres said, "One rash move - one miscalculation - could trigger a catastrophe that goes far beyond the border, and frankly, beyond imagination."

Iran's U.N. representatives said "perhaps the time for the self-annihilation of this illegitimate regime has come...Any imprudent decision by the occupying Israeli regime to save itself could plunge the region into a new war."
 
 
X/Twitter is reporting:
 
 "forces in Iran, Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan are ready to join Hezbollah against Israel." 
 
 "Israeli-US coalition warplanes are striking headquarters and ammunition depots of Iranian groups in Syria."
 
"Israel has deployed large numbers of troops and equipment to the Lebanese border, indicating that a full scale war with Hezbollah could break out at any moment."
 
"Lebanese in Beirut are leaving in huge crowds.  Everyone is preparing for imminent war between Hezbollah and Israel."
 
"Israel is deploying major infantry and armored forces along the Lebanese border."
 
"Hezbollah has Israel's Dimona nuclear power plant on its target list."
 
"Settlers are fleeing Israel due to the impending war with Hezbollah...as Ben Gurion Airport is overcrowded with settlers leaving."
 
"The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower alongside several U.S. Navy Surface Vessels including the Ticonderoga-Class Cruiser, USS Philippine Sea and at least a pair of Arleigh Burke Class Guided Missile Destroyers have now arrived roughly 150 miles off the coast of northern-central Israel after transiting the Suez Canal from the Red Sea earlier today."
 
"Massive GPS jamming all over Lebanon.."
 
"The Iraqi Resistance will stand with Hezbollah shoulder to shoulder against any Israeli attack on southern Lebanon."
 
"France, in addition to other countries, have offered military assistance and support to Lebanon if Lebanon launched an operation to expel Hezbollah north of the Litani River."
 
"Lebanon is preparing for war.  A former senior government official warns:  "Hezbollah will use modern weapons and fire accurate missiles."
 
Gog and Magog War - Is This It?:
 
The U.S. has held back arms to Israel.  In the Gog War, Israel stands alone - no allies come to her aid.  The U.S. is/was Israel's biggest ally.  Israel will feel the lose of those weapons in a Hezbollah war.
 
Already, more Muslim groups are siding with Hezbollah and promising military aid should full war break out.
 
There is a coalition of enemies that move against Israel in the Gog War.
 
And Russia and Iran have various agreements of support.  If Russia is involved in the Gog War...this could be what pulls them in to fight with Iran.
 
Iran is listed as Persia in Ezekiel 38 - they fund and support Hezbollah - supplying military equipment, etc for use against Israel.  Iran said that "perhaps the time for the self-annihilation of this illegitimate regime has come."
Israel will be the ‘ultimate loser’ in war with Hezbollah, Iran says
 
This could be the beginning of this was - it could put the hooks into the jaws of Gog and pull him into attacking Israel.
 
Watchwoman 65, Lisa, has more information on her Youtube channel:
 
She reports on articles that state Hezbollah has far more resources than previously known.  Israel's electrical components and fresh water pumping stations are high targets for Hezbollah - and this would leave Israel in the dark and a loss of potable water.  They would target major transformers - which may take a year to replace.  If Iran enters the conflict with Hezbollah, then Israel will attack Iran's entire nuclear program and Israel will NOT commit to not using nuclear weapons.  Hezbollah says it has all the necessary weapons to use against Israel (a nuke?)  Israel has moved military to the Lebanese border. 
 
Lisa believes the war will start sooner than 'three weeks' as reported by U.S. analysts.
run time 18:40
 
Israel's Foreign Minister Katz said Israel will make their decision soon and "The free world must unconditionally stand with Israel in its war against the axis of evil led by Iran and extremist Islam.  Our war is also your war."
 
The Obama-Biden administration is anti-Israel - I can see them offering little aid to Israel if the Gog and Magog war starts.
 
Some say that when 'the bombs come down' we go up - meaning when the Gog War starts, the Rapture will happen.  That certainly is a possibility!  Or we might see this war take place - we would watch an amazing miracle as God saves Israel from her enemies. But I think others may take advantage of a large Middle East war - such as Russia's move on Ukraine/NATO and Chinese move on Taiwan/U.S. Resulting in a huge world war at about the same time.  
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
 
Maranatha!
