"In surprisingly blunt comments, (John) Kerry told Israel’s Channel 2
TV on Thursday that Israel faced the possibility of INTERNATIONAL ISOLATION
and renewed violence with the Palestinians if peace efforts failed. He
also said the continued settlement construction raised questions about
Israel’s commitment to peace."

.......international isolation.....Hmmm, .......sounds a lot like what
Scripture tells us will be happening in the very, not so distant
future...? The prophets of the Old Testament saw, and had a lot to say
About the time when Israel would become "isolated" from the rest of the
world, as well as what the Lord would do to her enemies and on her
behalf, to protect her. Woe to those nations that would touch
" the apple of His eye" ......We can now so clearly see the beginning
stages of Israel's separation and isolation from the rest of the world
nations, ultimately her avowed and determined enemies, and a scenario
unfolding, where the Lord's intervention will be the only way Israel
will survive as a nation.
Zechariah 12:1-4
Amplified Bible (AMP)
12) The burden or oracle (the thing to be lifted up) of the word of the
Lord concerning Israel: Thus says the Lord, Who stretches out the
heavens and lays the foundation of the earth and forms the spirit of
man within him:
2) Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup or bowl of reeling to
all the peoples round about, and in the siege against Jerusalem will
there also be a siege against and upon Judah.
3) And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all
peoples; all who lift it or burden themselves with it shall be sorely
wounded. And all the nations of the earth shall come and gather
together against it.
4) In that day, says the Lord, I will smite every horse [of the armies
that contend against Jerusalem] with terror and panic and his rider
with madness; and I will open My eyes and regard with favor the house
of Judah and will smite every horse of the opposing nations with
blindness.
Joel 3
Amplified Bible (AMP)
3) For behold, in those days and at that time when I shall reverse the
captivity and restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2) I will gather all nations and will bring them down into the Valley
of Jehoshaphat, and there will I deal with and execute judgment upon
them for [their treatment of] My people and of My heritage Israel, whom
they have scattered among the nations and [because] they have divided
My land.
