Palestinian Authority Continues to Deny Israel’s Right to Exist
Zechariah 12:1-3, “The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah [and] against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”
By Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik – “The Palestinian Authority’s ideology is to refuse to recognize Israel’s right to exist. The media it owns and controls regularly publish articles that demonize the modern State of Israel and its establishment as a “colonialist plan”.
Recently, the official PA daily went even further, not just maligning the modern State of Israel but also labeling the Jewish/Israelite presence in the land of Judea/Israel 2000 years ago as a “crude form of colonialism”.
Whereas Hamas openly denies Israel’s right to exist in both English and Arabic, the PA professes in English before the international community to have recognized Israel’s right to exist. As documented by Palestinian Media Watch, when addressing its own people in Arabic, the PA – like Hamas – completely denies Israel’s right to exist.
The following is the PA daily’s defining ancient Judea/Israel as ‘colonialism’:
‘The Zionists must acknowledge publicly, in front of the world, that the Jews have no connection to the Palestinian Arab land, upon whose ruins arose the colonialist settler Zionist plan that settles and expels, represented by the Israeli apartheid state. That which occurred two thousand years ago (i.e., the Jewish/Israeli presence in the land), assuming that it is true, represents in the book of history nothing more than invention and falsification and a coarse and crude form of colonialism.'[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, May 27, 2011]” Read more.
Palestinian President: There Will Be No Peace Talks With Israel; Arab League Panel to Seek UN Membership for ‘Palestine’– “DOHA – An Arab League committee decided on Saturday to seek full UN membership for a Palestinian state in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, with east Jerusalem as its capital, it said in a statement. The Arab League’s peace process follow-up committee said it would request membership for the state of Palestine at the UN General Assembly’s meeting in New York in September.” Read more.
I wonder what kind of look they will have on their faces when Gods vengeances finally comes about.
Isa 34:8 For the LORD has a day of vengeance, a year of retribution, to uphold Zion’s cause. Isa 34:9 Edom’s streams will be turned into pitch, her dust into burning sulfur; her land will become blazing pitch! Isa 34:10 It will not be quenched night and day; its smoke will rise forever.From generation to generation it will lie desolate; no one will ever pass through it again

ICA good passage – Isaiah 3:18,25 Pretty much nails it exactly — headbands, crescent ornaments

Of course, the context is the “Daughters of Zion”…don’t know how applicable it is to Moab, etc. (see verse 16).

Hey guys – I know I haven’t posted for a while (the Lord is keeping me quiet), but I just had to throw something out here. As I look at this picture and see the Nazi salute, it strikes me that, perhaps the beast which had the fatal wound to the head was not the Ottoman Empire, but Nazism. Hitler was for sure a “type” of antichrist, with the sole purpose of wiping out the Jews. Just think about all of the correlations – the same imagery in their symbols, i.e. Look at this report from Jerry Golden – http://thegoldenreport.com/reports/58-the-nazi-spirit-in-the-arab-world
We all know how Hitler took his life (shot to the head). Worth giving some thought, anyway. This evil is rising again and hardly anyone (in places of power, anyway) is noticing. In fact, Shimon Peres actually made the statement today that Jerusalem will see “peace in our time”. Shades of Chamberlain.

That thought has crossed my mind as well. I could be wrong, but one question I’ve had is, is there a ‘Nazi spirit’ in the Arab world, or was it an ‘Arab spirit’ that was in the Nazi world? It seems to me that Nazism was influenced by the virulently Anti-Semitic nature of Islam, and not vice-versa. As this book posits, “The Nazis needed oil. The Arabs wanted the Jews and British out of Iraq. The Mufti of Jerusalem forged a far-ranging alliance with Hitler resulting in the June 1941 Farhud, a Nazi-style pogrom in Baghdad that set the stage for the devastation and expulsion of the Iraqi Jews and ultimately almost a million Jews across the Arab world. The Farhud was the beginning of what became a broad Nazi-Arab alliance in the Holocaust.”
In fact, the Islamic Mufti of Jerusalem “was one of the initiators of the systematic extermination of European Jewry and had been a collaborator and adviser of Eichmann and Himmler in the execution of this plan. … He was one of Eichmann’s best friends and had constantly incited him to accelerate the extermination measures. I heard him say, accompanied by Eichmann, he had visited incognito the gas chamber of Auschwitz.” [1].
Jews thrived in Germany before Hitler came to power, so Germany was not always Anti-Semitic before the Nazis took over. But the Islamic world has been since the 8th century and had significantly influenced Nazi ideology.
Also, it seems to me that another consideration is that any kingdom referred to as a Beast in Scripture seems to have had exerted considerable control or influence in the Middle East (prophecy is always Middle East / Israel / Jerusalem centric). This was not the case with Nazi Germany, however, which sought to conquer Europe, and I’m sure they would have loved to eventually conquer much of the world, but they fell well short in that respect. So a prerequisite for a Biblical ‘Beast’ (empire/kingdom) that is described as having a ‘headwound’ which is later healed would seem to me to be one which itself also exerted considerable control or influence over the Middle East. I think the best candidate still seems to be the Islamic Ottoman Empire which ended in 1924 and is now being ‘healed’ as an Islamic ‘Neo-Ottoman’ Empire. Another Beast, radicalized to the core by its brand of Islam, is rising up from within the ‘Neo-Ottoman’ Empire that is certainly just as genocidal as the Nazis before them. Certainly, there are similarities that we can see, but I don’t think that this new Beast of radical Islam is one that was influenced by Nazi ideology, but rather it’s the other way around.

AtHisFeet – Just a comment on this – Zec 11:16 to 17 tells us it will be his right eye and right arm that will be wounded – much like the Dajal in Islam which also will have one eye ??
For I am going to raise up a shepherd over the land who will not care for the lost, or seek the young, or heal the injured, or feed the healthy, but will eat the meat of the choice sheep, tearing off their hoofs. Zec 11:17 “Woe to the worthless shepherd, who deserts the flock! May the sword strike his arm and his right eye! May his arm be completely withered, his right eye totally blinded!”
Daniel speaks exactly about this same eagle that the picture show as an Arab emblem – first connection I made with NAZI Germany though – but you may have something there. I was in Egypt back in the 70s and actually met some old NAZIs left behind from WW II
Da 7:4 “The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a man, and the heart of a man was given to it –
In this case I have connected it to Babylon as it is also the emblem of Iraq

Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it is the same “spirit” which has infected both Nazism and radical Islam. I don’t think there is any evidence that Hitler was in any way influenced by Islam in his younger years as he was forming his “worldview”. He was raised in Vienna, which had an extremely anti-semitic culture at the time, without any reference to Islam. While Hitler may have seen the Muslims as a means to an end, according to his ideology, they would have eventually been exterminated themselves due to the fact that they were non-Aryan.

I would agree, definitely the same ‘spirit’ in Nazism and radical Islam.
