WOE!

VIENNA — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu endorsed a Palestinian state beside Israel for the first time on Sunday, reversing himself under U.S. pressure, but saying the Palestinians would have to lay down arms, a condition they swiftly rejected.

Fox News

As the U.S. pressures Israel to make this move I wonder just what may be on the horizon for the U.S.? I'm certainly not 'pro' everything Israel. They are in no way a perfect people, and yet I recognize that God has blessed them and has promised a blessing upon they that bless Israel and a curse upon they that curse them (Genesis 12:3). The prophecy of Joel is also rather striking...
"I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf of my people and my heritage Israel, because they have scattered them among the nations and have divided up my land,"

Joel 3:2 ESV
emphasis mine

Keep watch! Israel, Iran, North Korea... interesting days are ahead.

I had the same thought when I heard the news. Certain things have been jumping out at me since hearing Walid and reading his book. This was definitely one of them!
