It’s 1967 All Over Again

It’s happening again.

It always does.

Israel’s lightning strikes on Iran (and let’s be honest, America’s performance is as astonishing) put them ahead of schedule. Iran is now defenseless: navy gone, air force gone, regular army drastically diminished. So now Israel has time to…destroy Hezbollah!

That’s right—today the IDF entered Lebanon, seeing an historic opportunity to thoroughly uproot those evil gargoyles. Netanyahu must be pinching himself.

And let’s talk about Bibi for a moment. I really do believe he’s reach Churchill status. Decades of vigilance, never moving from his premise that the head of the snake was Tehran. Remember, not only did he and his brothers see action as members of Israel’s elite counter-terrorism unit—their brother Jonathan was killed in combat. His death pushed the middle brother from a career in business to politics.

God’s Man for the Moment.

But the action now against Hezbollah is so huge. Hamas is a walking corpse, never to rise again. You see, once the rich funding from the head of the snake is gone, the terror proxies dry up.

So in a similar way that Israel was able to capture all of Judea and Samaria, including the coveted Temple Mount in 1967, there is now perhaps one opportunity to kill all the baby snakes, too. They seem intent on finishing the job, relishing it even.

Remember only a few years ago when the big scary statement was that Hezbollah had tens of thousands of rockets, and would one day overwhelm Israel?

Didn’t happen, did it?

Sometimes God kills 185,000 Assyrians in one night, and other times, God kills a bunch of Hezbollah with pagers. The ancient and modern intersect.

Again, I’m struck by the parallels. In 1967, Israel also had no plans going into that week to capture the Temple Mount, but they did. I had a personal thrill in 2017 when I entered Lion’s Gate at exactly the same time IDF troops had in ’67. From there it was a short jog to the Temple Mount.

Now, Israel has the opportunity to kill the last of their enemies as we celebrate Purim, the book of Esther epic. A few hours ago, Gadi Taub posted on X: “This is a repeat of the Book of Esther, in real time, and on the same dates. Jewish history sure puts secular beliefs through some tough tests.”

Indeed it does!

Also, in ’67, Israel almost begged Jordan to stay out of the fight. King Hussein however felt bound by his agreements with Egypt and plunged in. Big mistake. Within hours, Israel had captured the ancient heartland, forever (Amos 9:15).

Two days ago, Hezbollah stupidly fired rockets into Israel. Today, the IDF is roaming through Lebanon, killing Hezbollah. To say that the Arabs have been their own worst enemy for generations is an understatement.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of killing Iranian leadership that funds the proxies.

Israel is remaking the Middle East, similar to their daring actions in the summer of 1967. Remember, certain specific conditions from Scripture must be set before the great end-time prophecies can be fulfilled. But we are living in amazing times.

Oh, India!

Israel’s “strategy of the periphery,” outlined by Ariel Sharon in his biography, is brilliant. The idea is, since Israel has horrible neighbors, they will go outside that “ring of fire” and find friends just outside that circle.

It has proven to be successful, with India being the most obvious example. For one thing, the people of India identify with Israel in the sense that both were colonized by the British. And that colonization was not pleasant for either peoples.

Second, India well understands the threat from Islam. Pakistan is a lethal neighbor, with nukes, and several very tense moments have arisen between the two countries in recent years. Pakistan is home to some of the most extreme jihadi scum on the planet. Intelligence sharing between India and Israel would curl your hair, and all of it has been necessary. Likewise for Pakistan (and other neighbors), the knowledge that Israel is coordinating with India is a real deterrent.

(I well remember how Pakistan got in line in September 2001, right after 9/11. The story goes that George W. Bush sent Secretary of State Colin Powell to Islamabad. In order to avoid any SAM missiles fired at the Secretary’s plane, the pilot put the plane down almost straight vertically! Once Powell met Pervez Musharraf, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs told him that if Pakistan didn’t cooperate in the hunt for Bin Laden, Pakistan would disappear. This is exactly the way to handle terrorist regimes. They do understand fear.)

From a Jerusalem Post report:

“Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the shared bond between Israel and India during a Knesset plenum address on Wednesday, while outlining plans to strengthen relations by working together in innovation, technology, and economic advancement.

“’The friendship between Israel and India remains a source of strength in an uncertain world,’ Modi said.

“The speech marked the first time an Indian prime minister had ever addressed the Israeli parliament and was held shortly after Modi landed in the country for an official state visit. He was greeted with standing ovations from the audience.”

Modi made a very interesting point in his remarks. He said both countries are “ancient” civilizations. This is tacit agreement that Zionism is real and valid. Remember, most countries do not recognize Israel’s links to her ancient culture. Modi is very smart and that remark was carefully crafted.

Modi also made the astonishing statement that soon, Israel and India will be among the top three economies in the world.

As the Indian leader’s visit concluded, he held additional meetings with key Israelis at the historic King David Hotel in Jerusalem. No doubt his signature will be added to the floor, as have other historic figures.

I encourage you to read further about the ties between India and Israel.
