Biblical Persia or modern day Iran…

Ebrahim Raisi, the Butcher of Tehran, has been martyred. Raisi earned the moniker as being a judge for a “death commission” in Tehran.

Iran army finds no sign of foul play so far in Raisi helicopter crash

Preliminary report says no evidence of criminal activity but investigators signal the probe is not yet over.

Joel 3:2 I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning My people, My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations as they divided up My land.

It would appear we are watching a serious trend towards prophetic fulfillment. The world is turning against Israel. Norway has officially recognized Palestine as a state. Spain will make their official proclamation on Tuesday, May 28th, 2024.

This Week in Prophecy: International Court of Justice, Erdogan in Action, Russia & Alaska, Taiwan Strait

Zechariah 2:8 For the LORD of armies says this: “After glory He has sent me against the nations that plunder you, for the one who touches you, touches the apple of His eye.

Israel has been on trial at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) at The Hague this past week. Israel has been charged with genocide against the people of the Gaza Strip by South Africa. The ICJ is the highest court of the United Nations.

“The ICJ judges assessed the facts and the law, they ruled in favor of humanity and international law,” Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNWRA) has a problem. Israel has indicated that members of the UNWRA were involved in the October 7 Hamas massacre of Israeli citizens. An undisclosed number of UNRWA workers have been relieved of their positions.

The United States has temporarily stopped funding to UNWRA. As of today, Finland, Britain, Italy, Australia, and Canada have also stopped monetary support. See the press statement below from the State Department.

Ezekiel 38-39 Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, and Beth Togarmah… We know these ancient names as modern day Turkey. President Recep Erdogan has been busy this past week.

January 24, 2024: President Erdogan hosted Iranian President Raisi in Ankara. Both of these leaders supported charges of genocide against Israel. Both Turkey and Iran do not recognize Hamas as a terrorist organization.

“What is happening in Palestine and Gaza is a crime against humanity… and the United States and the West are supporting these crimes. Cutting economic and political ties with this regime can certainly have an impact on the Zionist regime to end its crimes.” -President Ebrahim Raisi, Iran

Iran (Shia) and Turkey (Sunni) disagree in the management of Syria. Iran is supportive President Bashar al Assad of Syria.

Erdogan has larger ambitions…

Russia’s Vladimir Putin declared the Russian sale of Alaska to the United States in 1867 null and void. Okay…

Prophecy says Iran and Turkey will agree, as lead by Russia, to invade Israel.

This Week in Prophecy: Gaza Strip, Israel’s 75th, Magog’s Gang, Pacific Theater

Zephaniah 2:4-5 For Gaza shall be deserted, and Ashkelon shall become a desolation; Ashdod’s people shall be driven out at noon, and Ekron shall be uprooted. Woe to you inhabitants of the seacoast, you nation of the Cherethites! The word of the LORD is against you, O Canaan, land of the Philistines; and I will destroy you until no inhabitant is left.

As usual, the rocket exchange between the Palestinians and the Israelis is all about perspective.

The events appear to be initiated by the death of Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s Khader Adnan. He was on a hunger strike for 86 days. Adnan was arrested in Israel on terrorism charges. When it was announced he died, four rockets were launched from Gaza. Israel responded. Then the two sides exchanged volleys.

A cease fire is in place for now…

Isaiah 66:7-8 Before she was in labor she gave birth; before her pain came upon her she delivered a son. Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Shall a nation be brought forth in one moment? For as soon as Zion was in labor she brought forth her children.

Israel celebrated its 75th anniversary of rebirth.

Magog’s gang from Ezekiel 38 had a busy weeek.

As of Wednesday, May 3rd, President Erdogan was back on the campaign trail giving a speech. Recep even performed some singing to some hip music for his followers.

Persia or modern day Iran

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi flew to Damascus to meet Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Syria was widely shunned by Arab governments over Assad’s brutal crackdown on protesters and the breakdown in relations culminated with Syria being ousted from the Arab League in 2011. The conflict has since killed nearly half a million people and displaced half of Syria’s pre-war population of 23 million. -Times of Israel

Somebody flew a drone into the Kremlin. Nobody is claiming is responsibility. Zelensky in Ukraine is denying responsibility. Russia is stating this is a terrorist attack and an assassination attempt on President Vladimir Putin.

Some are suggesting a false flag by the Russians.

Tension Between Israel & Iran Rising

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Ezekiel 38-39, Persia/Elam/Iran, Trend Update with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 2, 2021 by paulthepoke

On July 29th, 2021, a suicide drone attacked an Israeli owned ship the Mercer Street. The attack occurred off of the coast of Oman. The oil tanker was empty. The ship was able to make it to safety with a United States Naval escort.

Various reports indicate the Shahed 136 Drone is the vehicle utilized for the attack.

Israel, along with the United Kingdom and the United States, is convinced Iran is responsible for the attack on the Mercer Street vessel. Israeli Prime Minister Bennett’s comments are noted in the tweet below. His video comments are a little over one minute and worth every second. I don’t understand Hebrew, but I do understand tone and body language. Based on Bennett’s history of a no nonsense approach to the enemies of Israel, I suspect Prime Minister Bennett means business.

The government of the United Kingdom held a special Cobra Meeting per a report from Sky News. A Cobra Meeting is held in only “serious focus” of an issue.

UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab blamed Iran and stated the event as “deliberate, targeted” assault which constituted “a clear violation of international law”.

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson indicated Iran will “face up to the consequences”.

Johnson was also quoted, “This was clearly an unacceptable and outrageous attack on commercial shipping, a UK national died.”

United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken has weighed in on the events. He is confident Iran is responsible for the attack.

“We are in very close contact, in coordination, with the United Kingdom, Israel, Romania and other countries. And there will be a collective response. We have seen a series of actions taken by Iran over many months, including against shipping, so I’m not sure that this particular action is anything new or augurs anything one way or another for the new government. But what it does say is that Iran continues to act with tremendous irresponsibility.” -US Secretary of State Antony Blinken

As of Tuesday, August 3, 2021, Iran will be swearing in their new president Ebrahim Raisi. He is known as the Tehran Butcher. The name was earned as thousands of political prisoners died at the decisions of the “death committee” which he was the leader. Human rights organizations have charged Raisi with “war crimes against humanity.”

Raisi is a fundamental, conservative Shia hardliner. Previously, he was the chief justice of the Iranian judicial system.

Buckle up…
