Anti-Semitism skyrocketing....notice, especially beginning in 2017. This seems to be simultaneously with anti-Christian hatred and murder....... www.adl.org/news/press-releases/anti-semitic-incidents-remained-at-near-historic-levels-in-2018-assaultsThis reminds me that the sign of the Woman in Labor was in 2017.....and the end result on earth of Revelation 12 is the Dragon, ie satan, persecuting the Woman, ie Israel, and her other offspring, ie those who hold to the testimony of Jesus. I believe the hypothesis that the 70th week from a futurist view is still in play, and we could well be in the 70th week already, with the birthpangs of the first two seals underway, and with the Dragon attacking the Woman who is relatively protected for 1260 days until the hypothetical midpoint of the 70th week, Pesach 2021

IRAN BEHIND THE GAZA ESCALATION - www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Amidror-Iran-behind-the-Gaza-escalation-588796Iran, through Islamic Jihad - its proxy in Gaza - is behind the current escalation in the South, former national security advisor Yaakov Amidror said on Sunday. Amidror, in a conversation with The Israel Project, traced the current round of massive rocket fire on Israel to Friday, when AN Islamic Jihad SNIPER fired on Israeli soldiers patrolling the Gaza border, wounding two officers. Israel responded and killed two Hamas men, and then the rocket barrage began from Gaza. What made Friday's shooting on the IDF patrol interesting, Amidror said, was that it took place precisely when Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders were in Cairo putting the finishing touches on an agreement drawn up by Egypt that was designed to ease the tension in the South. But while its leaders were in Cairo, Islamic Jihad fired on the soldiers. At first, the organization tried to deny responsibility for the attack. “Why did the Islamic Jihad do this?” Amidror asked. “The answer is again and again and again - Iran.” Iran's interest, Amidror said, is for Israel to embark on another major operation in Gaza, freeing up Tehran to do what it wants unhindered in Syria. The Iranian idea, he said, is that “Israel will be busy focusing on Gaza and not have enough energy to deal with the building up of an independent war machine in Syria.” Iranian pressure, Amidror hinted, is the only explanation for why Islamic Jihad would fire on an IDF patrol while its leaders were in Cairo talking about an arrangement with Israel. Hamas, Amidror said, was “dragged” into the current escalation by Islamic Jihad. He added that whatever is agreed upon in Cairo -whatever arrangements are reached regarding fishing rights, the economy and the transfer of Qatari funds - “at the end of the day, it will be destroyed by Islamic Jihad if Hamas does not take control and do what it should as an organization that is in control of the Gaza Strip.” Islamic Jihad, unlike Hamas, is a completely owned and operated Iranian subsidiary, Amidror said. “It was established by Iran, financed by Iran, and does what Iran wants it to do.” So, Iran seems to be clearly trying to cause an escalation while moving more troops into Syria. In preparation for upcoming attack into Israel? When? Before the peace plan announcement? This year? Also, I'm curious how this will affect the coming peace plan announcement. Does this hinder or help it? If this escalates even further, are Israel citizens more inclined to push for peace or not? Last I read Israel citizens generally were not for the peace plan. It seems according to scripture that the "peace and security" must come first before the Ezekial 38 and 1 Thessalonians 5 prophecies. Ezekial 38:14-16 14 “Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “On that day when My people Israel are living securely, will you not know it? 15 You will come from your place out of the remote parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great assembly and a mighty army; 16 and you will come up against My people Israel like a cloud to cover the land. It shall come about in the last days that I will bring you against My land, so that the nations may know Me when I am sanctified through you before their eyes, O Gog.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3 While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape. Just my thoughts. Thankfully God is in control and all will happen according to his will.

Threats intensifying - www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Hamas-Islamic-Jihad-Were-close-to-open-war-with-Israel-588867HAMAS, ISLAMIC JIHAD: ‘WE’RE CLOSE TO OPEN WAR WITH ISRAEL’ Defiant Hamas and Islamic Jihad officials said on Sunday that they don’t rule out the possibility that the current round of fighting in the Gaza Strip could lead to an all-out war with Israel. The warning came as leaders of the two Palestinian groups continued their discussions in Cairo with senior Egyptian intelligence officials on ways of ending the current round of fighting with the Jewish state. ... In a statement issued on Sunday evening, Islamic Jihad said that it was ready to wage an “open confrontation” with Israel. It said that the continuation of Israeli military strikes “will be met with a similar and large-scale response” targeting all Israel.

What is it that you are seeing? sog, fitz, Natalie, Thought I read that the attacks from the south (Hamas & Islmaic Jihad) would cause Israel to focus there rather than on Iran operating in Syria to the North

I see all these posts, but what are the opinions on what you are gleaning from these links/updates? What is it that you are seeing? sog , fitz , Natalie , barbiosheepgirl , 3 posts up from yours I gave some of my thoughts on what I think may be going on. I think ultimately we are so close to events that trigger our meeting Christ in the sky. It’s hard to be patient, don’t you think?

Mike, good idea about the distraction. Also, if the conflict develops further, then there is a chance that Israel fighting on multiple fronts might work well for the enemies as Israel has to split forces, weakening instead of a single united front. Guerrilla war tends to do that.
Sog, thanks for posting it, it made my mind working.
My theory about 'My people Israel are living securely', the area surrounding north of Israel and Damascus would be wiped out due to the conflict somehow and terrorists are either decimated or captured etc while Iran military were wiped out. Then Israel would feel secure but I figure that Iran and Syria would pressure Russia harder to take charge and the devastation which left the northern section of Israel as an opening for Russia and other countries to overwhelm Israel through numerical superiority.
I have no idea what America would do. I haven't thought that far but I remember that Damascus to be gone in a night meaning there was no time for America to do anything.
Of course, I might be 100% wrong about the whole thing and everything settle down.

Iran moving ballistic missiles by boat, US officials say - www.cnn.com/2019/05/07/politics/us-iran-transporting-missiles/index.htmlIntelligence showing that Iran is likely moving short-range ballistic missiles aboard boats in the Persian Gulf was one of the critical reasons the US decided to move an aircraft carrier strike group and B-52 bombers into the region, according to several US officials with direct knowledge of the situation. The concerns over the movement of the missiles was one of multiple threads of intelligence from various sources that led the US to believe Iran had a capability and intention to launch strikes against US targets. On Tuesday US Central Command spokesperson Capt. Bill Urban said they had seen "indications that Iranian and Iranian proxy forces were making preparations to possibly attack US forces in the region." It's not clear if the Iran could launch the missiles from the boats or if they are transporting them to be used by Iranian forces on land.
