  S1: The Bible makes it very clear that Israel is a
• 0:04
  S1: nation that God will protect. And Jeremiah, we read only
• 0:07
  S1: if the sun and moon disappear will Israel cease to
• 0:10
  S1: be a nation before me. I'm so thankful for that promise,
• 0:13
  S1: especially in light of some very troubling polling data here.
• 0:17
  S2: To unpack present day issues from a biblical perspective is
• 0:21
  S2: Janet Parshall.
• 0:22
  S1: A poll done by our Republic? Rasmussen found that nearly
• 0:25
  S1: 1 in 5 voters would favor a deal to end
• 0:28
  S1: the war with Iran if it meant dissolving the state
• 0:30
  S1: of Israel in favor of a Palestinian 119% of likely
• 0:35
  S1: voters held that position. The number gets even higher 46%
• 0:39
  S1: among voters ages 18 to 24. Also, according to the poll,
• 0:42
  S1: nearly three out of four Americans still hope we win
• 0:45
  S1: this war. But who gets the blame for starting it? Well,
• 0:47
  S1: the poll found that 51% of voters blamed Israel or Washington, 40%
• 0:52
  S1: said Washington, 10% said Israel and Iran. Well, they were
• 0:55
  S1: blamed by only 39% of voters. It's stunning that 19%
• 1:00
  S1: of those polled would destroy Israel for cheaper gas. Reviewing
• 1:04
  S1: the facts might help. Tension has been building between Israel, who,
• 1:07
  S1: according to Iran, is the little Satan and America the
• 1:10
  S1: Big Satan, a theocracy that believes they will eventually islamize.
• 1:14
  S1: The entire world can never have nuclear weapons, but we
• 1:17
  S1: now know Iran is well on its way to doing
• 1:19
  S1: just that. In recent months, Iran has enriched uranium up
• 1:23
  S1: to 60% purity, just shy of weapons grade. They have
• 1:26
  S1: blocked international nuclear inspections and have been officially censored by
• 1:30
  S1: the UN's IAEA for violations of nuclear safeguards, all the
• 1:34
  S1: while supporting terrorist groups like Hezbollah and Hamas. Israel has
• 1:38
  S1: every right to call Iran an existential threat. Israeli history
• 1:43
  S1: reminds us that as far back as Menachem Begin, who
• 1:45
  S1: was prime minister of Israel from 1977 to 1983, Israel
• 1:49
  S1: gave notice to the world that it would not allow
• 1:52
  S1: any country that proclaimed its hostility to the Jewish state
• 1:55
  S1: to get to the point where they had nuclear weapons.
• 1:58
  S1: In 1981, Israel struck Iraq's Osirak reactor and did the
• 2:01
  S1: same thing in 2007 against a nuclear facility in Syria.
• 2:05
  S1: Israel is not the aggressor. They are the protector of
• 2:08
  S1: Israeli citizens while preventing a nuclear disaster. But at its core,
• 2:13
  S1: the conflict between Israel and almost the entire rest of
• 2:15
  S1: the world is not a geopolitical question. It's a spiritual one.
• 2:19
  S1: Does God keep his promises regarding Israel? Satan, the ultimate anti-Semite,
• 2:24
  S1: hates the reality that salvation came by way of the Jews.
• 2:27
  S1: Destroy the Jews and no more Messiah. What a devilish
• 2:31
  S1: way to think. The Bible reminds us that he who
• 2:34
  S1: watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. God watches
• 2:38
  S1: over Israel, and he's not finished with the Jewish state.
• 2:41
  S1: So keep praying for the peace of Jerusalem, and pray
• 2:44
  S1: that the inhabitants of that land will come to know
• 2:47
  S1: Yeshua the Messiah. Those are my thoughts. I'm Janet Parshall.
