MAY 15 PALESTINIAN INTIFADA

There is much conversation all over the internet and especially Facebook about the call for a new intifada against Israel to be launched on May 15. That is the anniversary of the birth of the State of Israel. The promoters are attempting to use the same technique that has been used to foment the demonstrations in other mid-eastern nations. The hope is to have millions of people literally push Israel into the Mediterranean Sea and be rid of the Nation of Israel once and for all.

In an article in ynetnews.com on March 23, Elion Levy wrote about the plans that the organizers are putting forth. He says, "The group's doctrines include a call for simultaneous protests on the Jordanian, Egyptian and Syria borders while Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza will launch attacks on Israeli settlements. Moreover, they ask for 'the help of our brothers in Lebanon' who will assist by raining missiles down on Israel."

This is a loud and clear call for Christians who understand our relationship to Israel to be fervent in prayer. I don't know what will happen on May 15. I only know that God in His Word has said that once His people are back in their land, He will never again allow them to be uprooted. It is foolish even to think that a mass march again the Israelis could be effective. It is even more foolish to believe that we can fight against the clearly stated plan and purpose of El Shaddai. There could be a lot of bloodshed but this plan is doomed to fail because it is diametrically opposed to God's plan.

To link Israel with the brutal dictators of the surrounding nations is a totally misguided action which demonstrates how little the world at large really understands what is taking place in the Middle-East.
