Speaking on Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed Hamas’ “obstinacy” for the failure of hostage negotiations and reportedly considered annexing parts of Gaza, according to The Times of Israel. Last week, U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff said that the U.S. and Israel would explore “alternative options” after the collapse of the hostage talks. U.S. President Donald Trump indicated that he would support military efforts to “get rid of” Hamas. While Americans debate from thousands of miles away, Israel just made one of the most consequential decisions in its modern history: to vote toward the annexation of Judea and Samaria. Predictably, Western voices—our most popular pundits, politicians, and yes, pastors—are in an uproar, clutching the pearls of the long-dead “two-state solution.” But let’s be clear: this move isn’t about peace treaties, land swaps, or failed diplomacy. This is about survival. And it’s about stopping the march of radical jihadist Islam before it reaches your doorstep. We need to stop pretending. Israel has offered the Palestinians a state multiple times: in 1947, in 2000, and in 2008. Each time, the answer was the same: no. Why? Because the goal has never been a state next to Israel. The goal has always been a state instead of Israel. Let’s not forget what we’re actually talking about. Judea and Samaria are not just arbitrary hills. These are the biblical heartlands where Abraham walked, where David ruled, where the prophets thundered, and where the story of Scripture unfolded. To suggest that Jews have no right to live there is to erase thousands of years of history and to surrender truth to propaganda. Western Christians, it’s time to stop sleepwalking. The problem isn’t “over there.” The problem is coming here. In many places, it already has. Europe is crumbling under the weight of imported jihad. Entire neighborhoods in Paris, Brussels, and London are ruled not by local governments but by Sharia courts. Churches are empty. Mosques are overflowing. And the multicultural dream has devolved into a nightmare of intimidation, censorship, and violence. And we think we’re immune? The same ideology that chants “From the river to the sea” in the West Bank is marching in our streets, indoctrinating on our campuses, and manipulating our media. Do they not see that this is spiritual warfare? Do they not understand that Israel is on the front lines not just of a physical war or political conflict, but of a clash of civilizations? Israel is not perfect. But it is fighting to exist in a region where its neighbors chant for its destruction on a daily basis. And for those of us who claim to follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—and who claim to believe the Bible—we have no excuse to stay neutral. You can go back to your delusions, believing that all people want peace, that all religions are basically the same, that modernity will save us. Or you can wake up to the reality that we are watching prophecy, geopolitics, and spiritual warfare converge in real time. Israel’s vote to assert sovereignty over Judea and Samaria is not a power grab. It’s a declaration that they will no longer play a rigged game. They will no longer be bullied into suicide by international pressure. ... the jihad isn’t just coming for the Jews. https://israel365news.com/410984/this-isnt-about-israel-its-about-global-jihad/ Palestinian STATE? The Gaza Lie, Iran's Collapse, and the Prophetic Clock | MidEast & Beyond: [About 57 minutes] The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas filmed Israeli hostage Evyatar David being forced to dig his own grave in a tunnel underneath Gaza, in a propaganda video meant to pressure the Israeli government to end the war. As Breitbart News reported Friday, Hamas and another Iranian-backed terrorist organization, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, published videos of hostages Evyatar David and Rom Braslasvki, respectively, starving. The reason Hamas is advertising its own brutality is partly to instill fear in its Israeli audience, but also to create pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to capitulate to the terrorists’ demands. Whether intentionally or not, the Hamas propaganda video also evokes photographs from the Holocaust, familiar to many Israelis, of Nazis forcing Jews to dig their own graves before shooting and murdering them. Images of starving Palestinian children, many of them fake or misleading, have flooded the international media, though the only people confirmed to be starving are the remaining 20 or so living Israeli hostages.
