Israel National News is reporting that a Kuwaiti newspapers is quoting "top Western sources" as saying reliable intelligence information indicates Hezbollah is planning a "large-scale attack on Israel in retaliation for its [alleged] assassination of senior Hizbullah commander Imad Mughniya."
Hezbollah, according to INN, is planning this attack in cooperation with both Iran and Syria. Not only that, Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other terrorist groups may be planning to intensify their efforts to strike at Israel to aid in the effort.
It seems we are perpetually standing in the doorway for prophetic fulfillment to occur in the troubled Middle East which may, among other things, see Damascus taken from being a city and left a ruinous heap in fulfillment of Isaiah 17:1, paving the way for conditions in Israel to become what Bible prophecy indicates they will be like when yet another bold end times attack on the nation of Israel will occur - the prophesied battle of Gog-Magog foretold in Ezekiel 38-39.
No pun intended but we can only dodge the bullet so many times where these predictions of an explosive outbreak of immense bloodshed taking place in and around the Holy Land is concerned. Why? Because the Bible tells us these things must come to pass prior to the return of Jesus Christ and the armies of heaven at Armageddon.
Matthew 24:6: And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
