Oh and in case you’re wondering, this is the article Savedat33 was referring to ... The Trump administration will unveil the first phase of its long-awaited blueprint for Mideast peace next month at a conference in the region designed to highlight economic benefits that could be reaped if the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is resolved, the White House said Sunday. The plan, which has been two years in the making, envisions large-scale investment and infrastructure work in the Palestinian territories. But the central political elements remain mostly unknown. And the economic workshop, June 25-26 in Bahrain, will not address the most contentious parts of the conflict: borders, the status of Jerusalem, Palestinian refugees and Israel’s security. In a joint statement with Bahrain, the White House said the workshop will give government, civil and business leaders a chance to gather support for economic initiatives that could be possible with a peace agreement. “The Palestinian people, along with all people in the Middle East, deserve a future with dignity and the opportunity to better their lives,” President Donald Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, said in a statement Sunday. “Economic progress can only be achieved with a solid economic vision and if the core political issues are resolved.” Kushner and Jason Greenblatt, envoy of international negotiations, have been leading efforts to write the plan, but so far, there’s been no participation from the Palestinians. The Palestinian Authority, which has complained that the White House favors Israel, severed ties with the Trump administration following several actions targeting them. Trump closed the Palestinian diplomatic mission in Washington, saying the Palestinians refused to engage in peace talks with Israel. The U.S. stopped funding the U.N. agency that helps Palestinian refugees, slashing hundreds of millions of dollars in aid for projects in the West Bank and Gaza and cutting funding to hospitals in Jerusalem that serve Palestinians. Trump also recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and moved the U.S. Embassy there from Tel Aviv. The Palestinians’ demand that Israel fully withdraw from all territories it occupies. Israel captured the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem in the 1967 Mideast war. The Palestinians want those territories for a future state. They also seek the right of refugees to return to the lands and the recognition of east Jerusalem as the capital of an independent Palestine. It’s an open question as to whether the Palestinians will exchange some or all of their demands for the prospect of economic prosperity. In an interview last month with The Associated Press, Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh likened that to “financial blackmail, which we reject.” Kushner said it has been disheartening that the Palestinian leadership has attacked the plan before it’s unveiled. A senior administration official told reporters that invitations to the workshop are being sent to individuals in the United States, Europe, the Gulf, the wider Arab world and “some” Palestinian business leaders. The Trump administration decided to roll out the economic and political parts of the plan separately, the official said, adding that there will be no discussion about the political aspects of the plan at the upcoming workshop. Earlier this month, Kushner insisted that the plan he’s helped craft is a very detailed, fresh approach that he hopes will stimulate discussion and lead to a breakthrough in solving the decades-old conflict. At a think tank in Washington, Kushner described it as an “in-depth operational document” not anchored to previous, failed negotiations, high-level political concepts or stale arguments. https://apnews.com/b640fd5dd77e4a1ba18a758a48c5b6c2 -Fair use - Whenever this gets ratified it will be a prophetic legend! And my guess is that it will get ratified after the Rapture! Then the temple will be rebuilt. According to guesstimates, it is thought that the Temple will be up and functional in about a years time, or less! God's gambit move in this chess match, is indeed the Rapture! We have over studied, over anaylized, over speculated, and over anticipated the day of the Rapture! I'll just be glad, when it's over and done! TR I agree they can have that temple built fairly quickly - under a year easily. And it looks like they wish to have it built this year ... On April 4th In the Times of Israel newspaper from Zehut Chairman, Moshe .... “I don’t want to build a (3rd) Temple in 2 years, but now”! It will be TR. I think of the Rapture like high school. When I was a freshman it seemed like graduation was forever away. Well I graduated 24 years ago this June lol Anyway we'll be 50 years into the millennial kingdom before we know it : ) I think the temple being rebuilt is a bigger sign than dividing the land. Technically speaking the original land grant given to Abraham from God has already been pretty divided for a long time now. Leaving Soon, nicely put! Interesting thought just popped into my head, you know like one of those “squirrel” moments :yes: Many of us have made comments to the affect of how we feel like time is truly speeding up. The clock is no longer in slow mode. Not just in prophecy unfolding, but daily life seems to now be on a fast track. Maybe, just maybe, the Lord is preparing us physically and mentally for the life of eternity at lightening speed. Ok so crazy thought I know, but God is not confined to time, right, so we will not be either once we have immortality and have put on the imperishable. Soooo, maybe we are already getting prepared for a super, lightening speed eternity. I only know that it’s already near the end of May and time has literally flown by. :feedback Tammie, I’m soooo glad you mentioned time speeding up! I started to notice it back in May 2010 ... it was 55 seconds per minute and now its down to 33 seconds per minute. I kid you not. My iPad clock is going crazy and my digital clocks are flipping to the next number quickly. Yet at the same time ... I can bake brownies, pizza, etc. and it still gets finished in 28 minutes or 15 minutes. I can’t explain that part. However, if I have an appointment ... I have to allow an extra 1/2 to my drive in order to make the appointment in time. And I live in the country ... no traffic and very few traffic lights. My cyber female friends all believe this phenomenal thing is happening ... some home school and can’t get all the subjects completed that they used to in one day. But all my males friends ... ahem ... they don’t see it happening and call me nuts and crack jokes that I live in Bernie lala land. Geri, I have not tracked time as faithfully as you have to see those changes you mentioned but I have been at work, looked at my computer and it might show 1100 am on it and then, in a brief moment it’s now 2:30 in the afternoon and for the life of me, I can’t tell you were the time went. This is truly an everyday occurrence. I get things done at work same as before, like your cooking, but not sure how. It’s so weird! :unsure: Even in my gardening, my plants have sprung up over night! Now I have been growing veggies for decades but last year and this year, it’s been really weird. I had to plant later this year because our winter was longer (go figure, seasons changing per prophecy), and just as always, I plant, wait, wait, wait, etc... wala veggies. Not now, in less than 3 weeks from seedling to veggies everywhere. I have zucchini, squash, peppers, tomatoes like crazy. My harvest will be well before July. Crazy right? :popcorn Watching always, praying faithfully, answer ready when guided. :prayer-hands: :flyup: Hahaha ... I love it ... instant veggies grown! Wow, that is crazy quick how they are ready to be harvested so soon! The reason I started noticing the time speed back in May 2010 was because we used to have a wall clock that you manually had to crank up and it runs on 7 days. Well ... it was giving the correct time but I was cranking that clock every 5 days because the brass weights were down. So I asked the Lord if time was speeding up and if so, if He could show me. I looked at my digital bedside alarm clock and started counting and saw that it wasn’t a full 60 seconds per minute. I just kept track and saw the seconds speed up as the years went by. :whistle: The wording "Deal of the century" is too arrogant especially it is God's land they are dealing with. I think Trump has gone too far in boasting his idea by calling his plan "Deal of the century". God dislikes arrogance and haughtiness. I wonder what God is thinking now regarding this Deal of the century?
The U.S. wants to ensure security for Israel and economic opportunity to improve the lives of Palestinians. The administration hopes that Arab countries will help bankroll economic incentives, such as infrastructure and industrial projects, to get Palestinians to buy into the plan. But with details of the political aspects of the plan still under wraps, any commitments for economic development won’t be easily attained.
