“Wipe Israel off the map!”
These were the words of Iran’s president as he addressed the UN General Assembly. Although there has been a bit of an uproar over his public declaration of Iran's intent to destroy Israel, most news sources have labeled it as “meaningless rhetoric”.
They could not be more wrong! Iran is a fundamentalist Islamic state and these words are an _expression of the national policy of this soon to be nuclear power.
This morning, there was a mass demonstration in Teheran with over one million Iranians supporting their president in his “holy” desire to destroy not only Israel but all of the “infidel” nations.
(That means you!)
The world is making a very serious error to indulge these radical statements. As I sat in the midst of a busy Israeli city this morning and listened to the reports of these threats, I must tell you that for those who live here, they did not sound empty or harmless.
Please Pray!
At the moment things in Israel are spiraling downward again. Hopefully, this will be another one of those intense “flare-ups” in the Middle East that will pass over the next few weeks yet we never know for sure. The enemies of Israel are definitely not rational and so the situation is always in danger of spinning out of control.
Please pray for a de-escalation of the current situation. Pray that Prime Minister Sharon and his security cabinet would move in unity with supernatural wisdom and clarity as they meet these very real threats to the nation of Israel.

Arabs swore to wipe Istrael off the map in 1947/8
& Arab maps don't have an Israel - they have always wanted to exterminate the Jews
But Almighty God promised Israel to the Jews in perpetuity - hence the miraculous victories which He gave them in 1948, '56, '67, '73, '82/'85...
& He promises even greater victories - to vindicate His holy name - "so that the world will know that the Lord alone is God...& will not share His glory with idols"
See Isaiah 40-45, Ezekiel 38-39, Dan 7, Joel 2/3, Zechariah 12-14, Revelation 16-19, etc
& pass it on, for God promised to bless all who bless Israel
& to curse all who curse her
God bless!
