HE WILL CONFIRM A COVENANT WITH MANY...The U.S.-Israel Strategic Alliance - Part II

DRIVING THE U.S.-ISRAEL ??STRATEGIC DIALOGUE?
??Strategic Dialogue? talks between the U.S. and Israel??were commenced in earnest at the end of November, 2005 (U.S. State Dept. Bulletin). These ??talks? are propelled to their inevitable conclusion (i.e., the U.S.-ISRAEL DEFENSE PACT/TREATY) by Iran??s preposterous charges this past week: No Jewish Holocaust under Hitler; Israel is a ??Zionist-European Tumor? which, ipso facto, should be excised from the Middle East and transplanted into Germany-Austria; and, ??no, we??re not making a Weapon of Mass Destruction, even though ??Israel must be wiped off the map!? (My conjectures.)
Historic revisionism is alive and well??therefore, do not conclude that this series on the ??Strategic and Eschatological Imperatives? embedded in the U.S.-Israel Defense Pact (upcoming) is as naïve as you may have surmised (i.e., pure speculation and benignly obscure Christian fundamentalism gone amok). Israel??s audacious materiality??in spite of the Adolf Hitler-Grand Mufti, Haj Mohammed Amin Al-Husseini original Axis of Evil??mocks the secular outrage toward Zionism and declares heretical the blather, and hyper symbolism of Biblical liberalism! (Palestinefacts.org)
There are forces like those written hereunder which make the heralding of Daniel the Prophet??s final week of Gentile World Power all the more irreversible and prophetically intrusive, in spite of the mockers??both secular and religious??who claim these prognostications are fantasy, or just plain fear-mongering among theological misfits who still claim the Bible has something to say about where this world??s heading!
??They??ve been wrong before??let them prattle about their future Antichrist all they want . . . it??s relatively harmless . . . besides, who??s listening; who cares . . .in any event, the Millerites, Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses and wacko-Christian fundamentalists like Hal Lindsey et al, have always dabbled in the ethereal world of prophetical make believe and we??re still here, aren??t we??
Friend . . . you??d better get a grip . . . things are changing, faster than you had any idea . . . and their ??prophetical alignment? does not bode well for a world utterly unprepared for what??s driving the personality behind: ??HE SHALL CONFIRM A COVENANT (i.e., ??Treaty?) WITH THE MANY?? (Daniel 9:27).
As Winston Churchill once said:
??We reject with scorn all these learned and laboured myths that Moses was but a legendary figure. We believe that the most scientific view, the most up to date and rationalistic conception, will find its fullest satisfaction in taking the Bible literally. We may be sure that all these things happened as they are set out in Holy Writ. In the words of a forgotten work of Mr. Gladstone, we rest with assurance upon ??the impregnable rock of Holy Scripture...?? Let the men of science and of learning expand their knowledge and probe with their researches every detail of the records which have been preserved to us from these dim ages. All they do is to fortify the grand simplicity and essential accuracy of the recorded truths which have lighted so far the pilgrimage of man.?
THE PRINCE OF PERSIA
When I published my article ??Behold, the Prince of Persia? (buzzle.com, June 2005), there were fears that a ??Nuclear Iran? would galvanize Radical Islam and stiffen the insurgency in Iraq, compel a ??democratic takeover? of secular Middle East nations like Egypt and Turkey, and drive Israel (and for that matter the U.S.) to the brink of a unilateral-preemptive strike at Iranian nuclear facilities. Likewise, because of the Iranian-Syrian Defense Pact (early 2005), Syria and the Palestinian Authority, would find themselves pouring into the ??cup of trembling to all the nations ??round about? Israel.
Well, we stand on our ??prophetic laurels? and declare the rise of the ??Prince of Persia? is all the more enraged through the election and regime of one, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (President of Iran since August 3, 2005) . . . consider this, as the world continues to spin upon this precarious axis of inscrutible uncertainty . . .
Gholamreza Aghazadeh, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, Dec. 10, 2005, told the newly-awarded Nobel Prize winner, Mohamed El-Baradei, that his comments to persuade Iran to stop its uranium enrichment program (because its heading toward a nuclear explosion in either Jerusalem or Tel Aviv) the following not-so-ambiguous-mafia-sounding remarks: ??He (El-Baradei) knows Iran has not diverted in its nuclear program . . . it would be better for him not to have many interviews.? (Comcast Netnews)
The Iranians, with diplomatic hubris, simultaneously suggested, through Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi that the U.S. participates in Iran??s nuclear program to wit: ??America can take part in international bidding for the construction of Iran??s nuclear power plant if they observe the basic standards and quality.?
All this during the same week (December 3-10, 2005) in which these not so subtle remarks were made by the ever-more-resembling the coordinator of the American Iranian Hostage Crisis, Iran??s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad:
??Some European Countries insist on saying that Hitler killed millions of innocent Jews in furnaces and they insist on it to the extent that if anyone proves something contrary to that they condemn that person and throw them in jail . . . although we (i.e., the Iranians) don??t accept this claim (i.e., the Holocaust??six million Jews perishing in Hitler??s death camps), if we suppose it (the Holocaust) is true, our question for the Europeans is: Is the killing of innocent Jewish people by Hitler the reason for their support to the occupiers of Jerusalem?? (Paul Hughes, Reuters, Dec. 8, 2005)
Of course, all this was compounded by President-American-Hostage-Leader Ahmadinejad suggesting that Israeli Jews be transplanted to provinces in both Germany and Austria to salve the conscience of their Nazi past. How fitting that all these remarks were made at the summit of the Organization of Islamic Conference held in the Muslim holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia!
Naturally, the U.S.-Israeli reaction was vehement, especially after the October, 2005 ??Israel must be wiped off the map? remarks of Mr. Ahmadinejad (The Tribulation Network):
??I hope that these outrageous remarks will be a wake-up call to people who have any illusions about the nature of the regime in Iran? (Israeli foreign ministry spokesman Mark Regev).
?? . . . an outrageous gaffe, which I want to repudiate in the sharpest manner? (President George Bush).
Finally, the bottom line remarks of White House spokesman Scott McClellan:
??It just further underscores our concerns about the regime in Iran. And it??s all the more reason why it??s so important that the regime not have the ability to develop nuclear weapons.?
Just how outrageous were Mr. Ahmadinejad??s remarks?
??So, Germany and Austria, come and give one, two or any number of your privinces to the Zionist regime so they can create a country there . . . and the problem will be solved at its root . . . you oppressed them, so give a part of Europe to the Zionist regime . . . why do they insist on imposing themselves (the Europeans) on other powers and creating a tumour (Israel) so there is always tension and conflict??
Now, Scott McClellan??s ??all the more reason why it??s so important that the regime not have the ability to develop nuclear weapons? and the innocuous subtrafuge of the U.S. State Department??s remarks regarding the U.S.-Israel Strategic Dialogue to wit, ??The United States and Israel look forward to continuing this dialogue in the Spring of 2006 in Israel???demands further ??strategic dialogue.?
