Not sure who that man is, or what group he's addressing but we're going to be at war with Islamic fundamentalists from now until Jesus comes.
These people (Shia branch of muslim religion) believe their "messiah," the 12th emom, can only come forth during a time of chaos. Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, Iranian president, believes he's essentially the Moslem version of John the Baptist, preparing the way of the Lord.
I don't have time for all the details, but chew on this a while before spitting it out.
I believe in something I can't prove. I believe that everything that happens in the natural realm is an outgrowth of something happening in the spiritual realm.
At the root of anything natural is something spiritual.
When Israel was reborn as a nation in
1948, it immediately proved the Q'ran fraudulent. The Moslems, founded by Muhammad in the 7th century, believe the promises of God were extended to Abraham, first, and then through Ishmael, the son born to Abraham through Hagaar the handmaiden.
Christendom recognizes the Abrahamic Covenant as running through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel).
Today's moslems are essentially descendants of Ishmael who later inter-married with the families of Essau, the twin who sold is birthright to Jacob.
Even in the 7th century, as through much of recorded history, the Bible couldn't make much sense since so many promises were extended to His Chosen people. From the time Titus leveled Rome in 70 AD until the 20th century Jews were scattered across the globe. I guess Muhammad saw an opportunity to fill a void?
Then came the Zionist movement late in the 19th century, gaining momentum with the Balfour Declaration in the 1920's and the liberation of the Holy Land from the Ottoman Empire. The day Israel was reborn, she was instantly at war with the surrounding Muslim nations. Study the history.
Why can't we have peace with radical Islam? They've sworn to Allah (a fictitious character, incidentally, and NOT another name for Jehovah God) to eradicate Jews from the earth. They grow up heavily indoctrinated into hating Jews, first, and Christians, second.
So, I'm not contending your run-of-the-mill "enemy combatant" (to use the euphemism of the Obama administration) is keenly aware that Isael's existence proves Muhammad a liar; they just always hated Israel because it's drummed into their heads.
Why talk to Iran? We've got nothing they want. Their mission is to unleash a nuclear bombardment on Tel Aviv. With or without U.S. help, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Natenyahu has to pre-empt.
Why do we need Israel? Start your study at Genesis 12:3 and continue until you've correlated U.S. history with the Zionist Movement. Our blessings seem to be heavily Hebrew dependent.
