The Middle East Problem
The Middle East conflict is framed as one of the most complex problems in the world. But, in reality, it's very simple. Israelis want to live in peace and are willing to accept a neighboring Palestinian state. And most Palestinians do not want Israel to exist. As Dennis Prager explains, this is really all you need to know. In 5 minutes, understand how Israel was founded, and how, since that auspicious day in 1948, its neighbors have tried to destroy it, again and again.
IS THE PSALM 83 CONFEDERACY (ISLAMIC CALIPHATE) SURROUNDING ISRAEL?
“They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You: The tents of Edom [Palestinians & Southern Jordanians] and the Ishmaelites [Saudies]; Moab [Palestinians & Central Jordanians] and the Hagrites [Egyptians]; Gebal [Hezbollah & Northern Lebanese], Ammon [Palestinians & Northern Jordanians], and Amalek [Arabs of the Sinai Area]; Philistia [Hamas of Gaza] with the inhabitants of Tyre [Hezbollah & Southern Lebanese]; Assyria [Syrians & Northern Iraqi’s] also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot [Children of Lot = Moabites and Ammonites, thus the modern day Palestinians will be the principal power engaged in the confederacy against Israel. The others come to assist them].” Psalm 83:4-8
In Deuteronomy 23:3-6, this warning is given to Israel "No Ammonite or Moabite shall enter the assembly of the LORD, even to the tenth generation none belonging to them shall enter the assembly of the LORD for ever; because they did not meet you with bread and water on the way, when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor in Mesopotamia, to curse you. Nevertheless the LORD your God would not hearken to Balaam; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loved you. YOU SHALL NOT SEEK THEIR PEACE OR THEIR PROSPERITY ALL YOUR DAYS FOR EVER.” ...thus, it is VERY clear, God is not going to allow a two-State solution, or any solution to forming a PA-Hamas government (especially one sharing Jerusalem as its capital), and Israel is NOT to seek their Peace or their Prosperity - EVER! ...unfortunately this is not going to end well for the PA-Hamas as prophesied in Zephaniah 2:4,5
From all indications, the current situation in Gaza will continue and escalate until either Israel takes back total control over Gaza and destroys Hamas, or an Islamic confederacy joins with them to help them win the war against Israel. It currently appears that help could come from the Islamic State. It is becoming very clear that ISIS or IS, the Islamic State Caliphate, has an End-Game - it is the DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL...they are ultimately forming a confederacy against Israel and gathering other radical Islamic Sunni jihadists from surrounding States (one by one) to join them as they most likely come and join with the children of Lot (PA-Hamas) and together, with one united consent, seek to destroy Israel, so it will be remembered no more. It would appear the Psalm 83 Confederacy (or Islamic Caliphate) is rapidly taking form as the following recent news stories support:
ARE THE ISLAMIC TERRORISTS OF ISIS TRAVELING A CIRCULAR ROUTE TO ISRAEL?
With each passing week of the incalculable damage being wrought across the Middle East by the jihadists of the new Islamic State – ISIS – something quite startling is beginning to take shape. It is beginning to look like their end game goal is to arrive at Israel’s doorstep...http://www.nowtheendbegins.com/blog/?p=24022
ISLAMIC STATE TO JOIN PALESTINE TO FIGHT THE 'BARBARIC JEWS'
The Islamic State, formerly known as ISIS, told Palestine the terrorist group will join its fight against the “barbaric Jews” but urged patience until ISIS is finished in Arab countries. The group wants to weaken the United States in Arab countries first..."It is only a matter of time and patience before it (Islamic State) reaches Palestine to fight the barbaric Jews and kill those of them hiding behind the gharqad trees – the trees of the Jews.”...http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2014/08/01/Islamic-State-to-Join-Palestine-to-Fight-the-Barbaric-Jews
ISIS Says Group Will ‘Break All Borders To Reach Jerusalem’
This is the declaration of the Islamic “caliphate.” ...the ISIS will eventually break all of the Middle East borders to make way to Jerusalem. “This is not the first border we will break,” “God will break all barriers..Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon…all of the them until we reach Jerusalem. This is the first of many barriers we will break.”...http://www.israelislamandendtimes.com/isis-says-group-will-break-borders-reach-jerusalem/
IS Actively Joining Gaza Terror War on Israel
As Operation Protective Edge holds in a temporary ceasefire, evidence has come out revealing the extent of the extremist Sunni group Islamic State's (IS, formerly ISIS) involvement in the terror war against Israel from the Hamas stronghold of Gaza. Terror organizations associated with IS and Al Qaeda have been proven to be joining the fight against Israel in Gaza, firing rockets on Israeli civilian population centers and attacking IDF troops...more troubling is a Channel 10 report which on Sunday exposed that in recent months black IS flags have been commonly seen in Arab-Israeli towns in northern and coastal Israel, notably in the cities of Nazareth and Akko...http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/183920#.U-mL-tzmQ9V
Islamic State beheads, crucifies in push for Syria's east
The insurgents, who are also making rapid advances in Iraq, are tightening their grip in Syria, of which they now control roughly a third, mostly rural areas in the north and east...militants crucified two men for the crime of "dealing with apostates" and two others were beheaded for blasphemy... http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/08/11/us-syria-crisis-east-idUSKBN0GB0WK20140811...and in another report, ISIS fighters abducted more than 100 Yazidi women and children from the northern Iraqi town of Sinjar, a 5 Year Old son of a founder of Baghdad’s Anglican church was “cut in half during an attack by the Islamic State and other children have been beheaded.
ISIS militants encircling key rebel city of Aleppo
Syrian rebels could suffer their biggest setback of the war as government troops and Islamic militants are encircling the key northwestern city of Aleppo. The Wall Street Journal reports that the fall of the city could also be a recruiting boon to the Islamic State, the militant group formerly known as ISIS, with members of the Western-backed Free Syria Army (FSA) joining with the militants...http://www.foxnews.com/world/2014/08/13/syrian-forces-reportedly-close-to-encircling-key-rebel-city-aleppo/
In Psalms 83:8 Assyria = Northern Syria & Northern Iraq. The ISIS is in almost complete control over these regions as Muslim radicals from other surrounding States are joining ISIS, which almost assures that ISIS will enter Lebanon as well as Jordan - and an ISIS entry into Jordan will absolutely cause an IDF response which could likely trigger Psalms 83 and a host of other regional wars and devastation (Jeremiah 49, Isaiah 17 & 19, Ezekiel 35, Zephaniah 2:4-15, Zechariah 12:1-9)
If Sunni ISIS wins victory at Aleppo the western Sunni rebel freedom fighters lose. Shite Assad is watching this battle very closely.
(1) Assad might have to turn some of his missiles he has pointed at Israel north aimed at ISIS.
(2) Should Assad lose ground and figure all is lost against ISIS Assad and Shite Hezbollah forces could start launching their rockets upon Israel and then Damascus would be destroyed (Isaiah 17:1) and Hezbollah in Lebanon areas would become desolate.
(3) Hezbollah has the majority of its forces in the Psalms 83:7 areas of Gebal & Tyre [Northern & Southern Lebanon].
(4) Sunni ISIS, Sunni Hamas, Sunni Al-Qaeda in Sinai and Sunni Salafi in Jordan then may all attack Israel and perish. (Psalms 83:6-8)
ISIS however may just enter Jordan and the Psalms 83 war could also be triggered in that way. Anyway one looks at the situation the prophetic pieces are there. The exact order of events will not be possibly known until the events actually happen but the timing of this prophecy does seem to be getting much shorter.

Here is what Wikipedia says about The Islamic State (IS): Also known as ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levent) is a jihadist group and in its self-proclaimed status as a caliphate, it claims religious authority over all Muslims across the world and aspires to bring much of the Muslim-inhabited regions of the world under its direct political control, beginning with territory in the Levant region, which includes Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Cyprus, and an area in southern Turkey...ISIS or ISIL is known for its harsh interpretation of the Islamic faith and sharia law and has a record of extreme and brutal violence, which is directed at Shia Muslims and Christians in particular...when it comes to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, since ISIS regards the Palestinian Sunni group Hamas as apostates who have no legitimate authority to lead jihad, it regards fighting Hamas as the first step toward confrontation with Israel...the group's intention to eliminate all modern borders between Islamic Middle Eastern countries; this was a reference to the borders set by the Sykes–Picot Agreement...The group is currently led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who was declared a Specially Designated Global Terrorist on 4 October 2011 by the US State Department.
NOTE in the above, ISIL seeks to control (among others areas) Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon - it already controls much of Iraq and Syria, and the “Levant” includes the control of ISRAEL! ...looks like almost all the Psalm 83 confederacy is present and accounted for under the control of the Islamic State!!
To better understand why/how things have gotten this way (besides the fact, all of this is clearly prophesied) and to understand exactly who the Islamic State is, how fanatical and brutal they are, what they are currently doing, and where they are headed, first view “The Middle East Problem” Video - August 6 (below) or linked here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EDW88CBo-8 and then see the five-part youtube video documentary below (just released this week) - “The Spread of the Islamic State Caliphate,” or follow these links:
Keep a very close eye on the Islamic State and their rapid spread into and control of the Psalm 83 confederacy states and groups, and their march toward Israel...Biblical prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes!
"Blow a trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the Day of the Lord is coming; surely it is near." Joel 2:1
The Spread of the Caliphate: The Islamic State
In the Special Report further below, I noted the following: “NOTE in the above, ISIL seeks to control (among others areas) Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon - it already controls much of Iraq and Syria, and the “Levant” includes the control of ISRAEL! ...looks like almost all the Psalm 83 confederacy is present and accounted for under the control of the Islamic State!!”...the only Psalm 83 Confederacy States that were missing from current ISIS terrorist activity and control were Egypt and Saudi Arabia - they have now been identified as ISIS targets and included, see below.
Hezbollah Worried About the Islamic State 'Monster'
After reports last week that the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) has gained a foothold in Lebanon's Arsal, Hezbollah terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah expressed a definite note of fear as he warned of the IS "monster."...IS is planning "on expanding toward JORDAN and SAUDI ARABIA by undermining the security and stability of these countries," Nasrallah said..."There is a support for ISIS wherever there is a following of Takfiri (apostate) thinking, and this applies to Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states," added the terrorist leader. Even as he spoke about how the IS "monster" threatens countries in the area, Nasrallah called Israel "an illegal entity and...a longstanding threat to the region. We cannot live with this threat. This is why the ultimate goal for this (region) is to eliminate (Israel)."...http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/184074#.U_DGI9zmQ9U
ISIS RELEASES MAP OF 5-YEAR PLAN TO SPREAD FROM SPAIN TO CHINA
The areas in Black are the territories ISIS wishes to incorporate into the newly announced caliphate...the westernmost territory of the map, labeled "Maghreb," is the Western Sahara, including Mali, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and a host of other nations. In Europe, the western limits of the empire are Spain-- "Al-Andaluz"-- a territory once controlled by Muslims in the Middle Ages. The map then incorporates almost every nation between Spain and the borders of China, as well as "Greece, Romania and Bulgaria - extending its territories in eastern Europe as far as Austria, which appears to be based on a pre-First World War borders of the Austro-Hungarian Empire."...http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2014/07/01/ISIS-Releases-Map-of-5-Year-Plan-to-Spread-from-Spain-to-China...this certainly includes EGYPT (identified here as The Land of Alkinana) ...so all the Psalm 83 Confederacy States and groups are now identified as being under the control of (or influence of) ISIS/ISIL, with their ultimate goal of “Breaking All Borders To Reach Jerusalem” ...so, “Is The Psalm 83 Confederacy (Islamic Caliphate) Surrounding Israel?” is ISIS the common uniting denominator? - it certainly appears at this time to be the case! ...Bible Prophecy being fulfilled in real time before our eyes!
"Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads,
because your redemption draws near." Luke 21:28

Interesting Note: ISIS was an ancient Egyptian goddess (protector of the dead) and the mother of Horus. Horus is one of the oldest and most significant deities in ancient Egyptian religion. "Horus, son of Isis" and also known as the “Eye of Horus” is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection and royal power from deities, in this case from Horus or Ra. The symbol is seen on the top of the pyramid on the U.S. dollar bill - the all seeing eye. Horus was also said to be a god of war - he became a symbol of majesty and power as well as the model of the pharaohs. In later Egyptian dynastic times, Ra was merged with the god Horus (Ra and Horus were one and the same). He was believed to rule in all parts of the created world: [the goal of the Islamic State and of the antichrist] the sky , the earth, and the underworld...how fitting, ISIS (Islamic State) seems to be the end-time embodiment of Horus son of Isis - this is no coincidence and likely all fitting the plan of the Antichrist in end-time prophetic events.

Islamic State vows to reach 'Palestine' and 'kill the barbaric Jews'
The organization calling itself the Islamic State has risen from the fog of war in Syria and Iraq in recent months and drawn the attention of the world with major victories on both sides of the Euphrates River that have claimed swaths of territory for its declared caliphate, or Islamic State. Now in the organization's new English language publication, Dabiq, aimed at young Muslims in western states, the extremist organization declared, "Islamic State will do everything within its means to continue striking down every apostate who stands as an obstacle on its path towards Palestine." Denouncing the ineffectiveness of other Arab states and organizations in carrying out the "will of Allah," the magazine vows that, "Its [Islamic State's] actions speak louder than its words and it is only a matter of time and patience before it reaches Palestine to fight the barbaric Jews and kill those of them hiding behind the gharqad trees – the trees of the jews."...http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Islamic-State-vows-to-reach-Palestine-and-kill-the-barbaric-Jews-372796...

Sisi (Egypt) Blames Israeli Lack of 'Peace' For Islamic State
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi blamed Israel for fueling terrorism in the Middle East by not making peace with the Palestinian Authority (PA) on Wednesday, in light of the tensions between the West and the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS). The lack of a "peace process" in Israel contributes to a "fertile environment for the growth and spread of extremism, violence and terrorism," claimed Sisi...Sisi has been critical towards Israel, despite serving as mediator between the Jewish state and the terrorist organization Hamas in negotiations that led to a ceasefire deal last Tuesday. It is worth noting that during elections in May, he said he would be open to amending the peace treaty with Israel...http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/184720#.VAdm89zmQ9U

Allen West Describes Explosive Scenario Showing How ISIS Could Invade Israel
Consider this scenario for the Jewish State of Israel: Hamas renews its assault against Israel from the south after rearming and restocking its rocket and missile arsenal. Hezbollah decides the time is right to begin an assault from the north with more rockets and missiles. A situation arises where Israel finds its stockpile of Iron Dome weapons is running low and cannot cover a two -ront aerial assault — some of the rockets and missiles find landfall. From Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra has decided to swear allegiance to ISIS and begins a ground assault against Israel from Syria. And in Jordan, where ISIS has been successful, they set their sights on crossing the Jordan River into Judea-Samaria and begin attacking Israeli communities — aided by the Palestinian group Fatah. Riots and unrest begins in East Jerusalem and a general state of emergency is instituted. Sophisticated surface-to-air missiles begin showing up in the region from Libya supplied by Ansar al-Sharia. Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport is shut down.
I’ve been describing situations that lead up to this type of scenario here at LibertyNews.com for the past year. Specifically, that Obama’s CIA and State Department have been toppling dictators that we paid off to leave Israel alone, and replacing them with worse people who facilitate an environment where ISIS can boil and share the idea that Israel should be destroyed. But seeing a specific and logical scenario laid out like this brings it into a whole new kind of light. And it isn’t pretty...http://www.libertynews.com/2014/09/breaking-allen-west-describes-explosive-scenario-showing-how-isis-could-invade-israel-plus-isis-holds-rally-at-jerusalems-temple-mount/#

ISIS Planting Sleeper Cells Along Syria-Israel Border
New information about ISIS activity concerning Israel was revealed on Sunday. According to a report in the Times of Israel, the terror group has been secretly operating sleeper cells in southern Syria in close proximity to the border with Israel. Approximately 6,000 ISIS rebel fighters have made their way southward toward Jordan and Israel...Two villages in which ISIS recruiters are especially active is Hayt and Sahem Al-Jawlan, located near the Syrian-Jordanian border. “They were sent by the Islamic State to control the largest portion of land possible”...”ISIS has been secretly working to established ‘sleeper cells in the south, which are hidden,’ to be used when the moment is deemed right to attack Israel.”
...From these six recent articles we can clearly see the formation of the Psalm 83 War and ISIS activity on four different fronts surrounding Israel. The present threat to Israel continues to escalate into a situation where Israel will likely be attacked from multiple sides - YES THE PSALM 83 CONFEDERACY (ISIS) IS SURROUNDING ISRAEL. The IDF will act decisively and with the full force of its military power to defend its borders, the results will be as prophesied in Psalms 83, Jeremiah 49, Isaiah 17 & 19, Ezekiel 35, Zephaniah 2:4-15, Zechariah 12:1-9 and Israel will expand her borders to closely align with the Abrahamic Covenant borders God promised Israel - See New Israel Borders...After a period of time, living in peace and security, it then likely becomes the impetus for Ezekiel 38 & 39...We are at the door-step of the fulfillment of these very significant prophetic events! - Prophecy being fulfilled in real time before our eyes!!

...It cannot be much clearer here that the current regional Islamic Caliphate made up of all the radical Islamic groups and States, are getting VERY close to pulling the trigger on a collective united effort to annihilate Israel - AKA Psalm 83, with Jeremiah 49:34-39 just before, just after, or concurrent with Psalm 83! ...Bible prophecy being fulfilled in real time before our watching eyes!!
"Blow a trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the Day of the Lord is coming; surely it is near." Joel 2:1

Hamas: from West Bank, We Can Destroy Israel Quickly
Last week, Hamas Political Bureau member Mahmoud Al-Zahar stated that Hamas wants to build an Islamic state in all of Palestine, meaning it would replace Israel, reports Palestinian Media Watch (PMW):
"[Some] have said Hamas wants to create an Islamic emirate in Gaza. We won't do that, but we will build an Islamic state in Palestine, all of Palestine," he told Al-Ayyam on Oct. 1.
Al-Zahar further said that if Hamas had a military foothold in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) as it does in the Gaza Strip it would be able to destroy Israel. He alluded to a possible future war of destruction against Israel by citing a Surah from the Quran about "the final promise":
"Al-Zahar said that if his movement [Hamas] were to 'transfer what it has or just a small part of it to the West Bank, we would be able to settle the battle of the final promise with a speed that no one can imagine.'"
PMW explained that his expression "The final promise" is taken from Surah 17:7 of the Quran: "Then when the final promise came, [We sent your enemies]... to enter the temple in Jerusalem, as they entered it the first time, and to destroy what they had taken over with [total] destruction.'" Hamas using it in the context of Israel is promising a future war of destruction against Israel...http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/185845#
...Again, it cannot be much clearer, Psalm 83 and other regional prophetic wars are on the VERY close horizon! Hamas is ISIS / ISIS is Hamas - Jamaat-e-Islami, Muslim Brotherhood, Iranian Revolution, Taliban, Hamas, Islamic State (IS/ISIL/ISIS), Al-Quds, Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, and a whole host of other factions, all have the same goal, to destroy Israel! ...”Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones. They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You” Psalm 83:2-5 ...”Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 ...“For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;
And I will enter into judgment with them there” Joel 3:1,2 ...The deliverer will come and Israel will be saved! Romans 11:26

Experts in Islamic radical movements think the terror group may merge with its al-Qaeda mother organization soon. Together, the group would represent the greatest terror threat to the civilized world (and specifically to Israel) ...The recent US intervention in the region along with the new US-led airstrike campaign against ISIS has actually forced the two groups to renew negotiations. Recent reports suggested that ISIS and al-Nusra Front are together planning the war against the US-led alliance - Add to that the Taliban in Pakistan who are hopping on board the ISIS train and you have a potential jihadi World War III...http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2014/10/10/Merger-ISIS-and-al-Qaeda-Could-Cripple-Civilized-World?page=0%2C0

Russia to Support Abbas's 'Deadline for Israel' Bid - Setting the Stage for Ezekiel 38
Russia announced on Sunday that it will back Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s plan to ask the United Nations to impose a deadline for Israel to withdraw from Judea and Samaria...Abbas’s move, which he plans to carry out through a resolution at the UN Security Council, is a unilateral move which is in direct violation of the Oslo Accords. The draft resolution will reportedly call for Israel to “end the occupation” by November of 2016. Its key provision calls for "the full withdrawal of Israel, the occupying power, from all of the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, as rapidly as possible and to be fully completed within a specified timeframe, not to exceed November 2016, and the achievement of the independence and sovereignty of the state of Palestine and the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people."...http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/186082#.VDwfU0vv89V...Israel’s non compliance, and the resulting regional War Psalms 83, Jeremiah 49, Isaiah 17 & 19, Ezekiel 35, Zephaniah 2:4-15, Zechariah 12:1-9 with a massive Israeli victory resulting in moving it borders the other direction (See New Israel Borders) and after a period of time, living in peace and security, it sets the stage and becomes the impetus for Russia to lead the Ezekiel 38 & 39 War...We are at the door-step of the fulfillment of these very significant prophetic events! - Prophecy being fulfilled in real time before our eyes!!
Other Key Headlines (links) in the last couple days supporting the terrorists over Israel:

...every one of these above supports a two-state solution at the pre-1967 lines. The God of Israel is not going to allow a two-State solution, or any solution to forming a PA-Hamas State (especially one sharing Jerusalem as its capital), and Israel is NOT to seek their Peace or their Prosperity - EVER! (Deuteronomy 23:3-6)...unfortunately this is not going to end well for the PA-Hamas terrorists as prophesied in Zephaniah 2:4,5...AND, it is not going to end well for those countries supporting the dividing of the land God has given to Israel “Jerusalem will become a burdensome stone for all people” (Zechariah 12:3)...”The God of Israel will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem” (Zechariah 12:9)
Jerusalem a “Ticking Time Bomb” as Fatah, Hamas Praise Recent Terror Attack
Science and Technology Minister Yaakov Perry (Yesh Atif) warned on Thursday that the escalating situation in Jerusalem is a “ticking time bomb.” The former head of the Shin Bet, Perry warned that Jerusalem was seeing the signs of an impending third intifada. “We are witnessing a very serious escalation in Jerusalem,” Perry told Army Radio, referring to Wednesday’s terror attack in Jerusalem which killed a three-month-old baby and injured eight others. “This escalation is on the verge of becoming an intifada,”...While Perry said that violent rioting by Arabs in Jerusalem is not new, he said that the latest attacks are a large warning sign of what is yet to come...Netanyahu added that Wednesday’s terror attack “is supported by the Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas – who glorifies the murderers and also embraces the organization that they are a part of, Hamas.”...Shortly after the attack, a senior aid to Abbas praised the terrorist behind Wednesday’s attack as a “hero.” This sentiment was shared by Hamas, Abbas’s partner in the Palestinian unity government, who celebrated the terror attack in Gaza and warned of the next “Palestinian intifada in Jerusalem.”...http://www.breakingisraelnews.com/23240/jerusalem-ticking-time-bomb-fatah-hamas-praise-recent-terror-attack/#ejpATtAV3ScbCzpZ.97...it looks to just be a matter of time before the next war breaks out, and looks to be one that will possibly be within the borders of Israel - an “Intifada” (An uprising, resistant struggle or rebellious protest, especially the Palestinian campaigns against Israeli occupation) - “I will avenge their blood, blood I have not avenged, for the Lord dwells in Zion.” (Joel 3:21). All these things are the lead-up to the soon outbreak of Psalm 83! The Lord dwells in Zion and Jerusalem is the eternal city of God - He will avenge Israel's enemies! You can take it to the bank!

ISIS Closing in on Israel from the North and the South
The war against ISIS is taking a dangerous, turn. The terror organization has expanded to southern Syria and the Syrian capital of Damascus. Now it says it has recruited three Syrian rebel groups operating in the south of the country in an area bordering the Israeli occupied Golan Heights - that have switched their loyalties to ISIS. This switch means that Israel, could be threatened from the southwest by the Egyptian ISIS group of Ansar Bait al-Maqdis in Sinai and by ISIS in southern Syria...ISIS has been known for launching surprise attacks and opening new battlefronts when it seems to be losing. ISIS also has been criticized by many Arabs and Muslims for not taking its fight to Israel and instead fighting fellow Arabs and Muslims. An attack aimed at Israel may boost ISIS’s popularity in the Arab world and refresh its recruitment and funding efforts...Israel could launch a preemptive attack to destroy or significantly damage these ISIS-affiliated units whether by air or by ground forces. Israel used its advanced air force to launch attacks in Syria several times since the beginning of Syrian civil war in 2011. Meanwhile, Israel has recently boosted its defenses in the Golan Heights, saying its main concern was to prevent any major weapon transfer from Syria to Hezbollah, the Lebanese guerrilla organization that has engaged in several rounds of war with the Israelis since the 1980s...http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2014/12/23/ISIS-Closing-Israel-North-and-South...As continually stated, it cannot be much clearer, Psalm 83 and other regional prophetic wars are on the VERY close horizon!
Is The Psalm 83 Confederacy (Islamic Caliphate) Surrounding Israel?
Is ISIS in Psalm 83?
by Bill Salus - Reprint http://www.prophecydepotministries.net/2014/isis-psalm-83/
A 3000 year old prophecy written in the book of Psalms appears to be alarmingly close to finding its final fulfillment. Psalm 83 identifies a 10-member coalition comprised of the Arab territories that mostly share common borders with Israel. Psalm 83:4 informs that this formidable alliance wants to destroy the Jewish state and banish the name of Israel once and for all. Psalm 83:6-8 provides the Old Testament identity of these belligerents, which could also include notable terrorist organizations like Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS and more.
ISIS is the acronym for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. “ISIS” is also known as “IS,” which simply means the Islamic State and “ISIL,” which stands for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. The term ISIL, was adopted by the group after making sweeping territorial gains in Northern Syria and Northern Iraq. The subsequent name change implied that the organization would seek further regional advances.
The Levant is a term that generally identifies the greater Middle East region, which includes Syria, Jordan, Israel, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, West Bank, and parts of the Sinai, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Coincidentally, all of these territories appear to be involved in the prophecy of Psalm 83. A simple Google search comparing ISIS to ISIL evidences that ISIS is clearly the more popularized name between the two.
Some prophecy pundits are beginning to connect the dots between Psalm 83:8, which alludes to the ancient territory of Assyria, and ISIS. Listed below and explained afterward, are several reasons that this connection might be justified.
• The Ancient Territory of Assyria: The swaths of territory now in the possession of ISIS, closely resembles the lands controlled by Assyria at the time that the Psalm was authored.
• The Dominant Role of Assyria in Psalm 83: Assyria appears to play a dominant role within the Psalm 83 confederacy.
• The Assyrian-Jordanian Connection: The Psalm makes a definite connection between Assyria and Jordan, which is possibly the next country that ISIS will seek to invade.
• The True Jordanian Descendants: The current ruling Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, has not directly descended from the Ammonites, Moabites and Edomites. These three peoples are the true indigenous ancestors of the Jordanians today. Therefore, Jordan’s current regime may be ousted prior to the fulfillment of Psalm 83.
Before explaining the potential prophetic implications of the list above, it is important to note that ISIS could fade off of the world scene as suddenly as it emerged. The summer of 2014, caught the world by surprise, as this relatively unknown terrorist organization called ISIS quickly rose to prominence in the Middle East. However, ISIS could wind up being like the Muslim Brotherhood or the Hamas, which in times past have dominated the news, but now can scarcely command a back page news story.
EXPLORING THE ISIS and PSALM 83 CONNECTIONS
The Ancient Territory of Assyria
Probably the most interesting possible connection between ISIS of today, and Psalm 83 of yesterday, is the ancient territory of Assyria. When Psalm 83 was penned about 1000 B.C., Assyria mainly encompassed Northern Syria and Northern Iraq. Although the Assyrian Empire expanded significantly a few centuries later when it conquered Damascus in 732 B.C. and the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 722 B.C., at the time that the Psalm was issued Assyria looked much like what ISIS presently possesses.
The Dominant Role of Assyria in Psalm 83
Within the Arab confederacy of Psalm 83, Assyria appears to play a most prominent role. Psalm 83:8 specifically says that Assyria joins with and helps Jordan in the Psalm 83 conflict. Presently, the Jordanian army represents one of the weakest members within the Psalm 83 confederacy. The Jordanian Armed Forces exist in a defensive capacity, and their primary goal is to maintain the supremacy over Jordan of the ruling Hashemite kingdom.
Below is a comparison of the army rankings of the other probable countries involved in Psalm 83. (i) This comparison doesn’t take into consideration that Hezbollah in Lebanon has about 100,000 missiles that are not included in Lebanon’s ranking. Nor, does it factor in the fighting power of ISIS in Syria’s or Iraq’s rankings. With the inclusion of these facts, the argument can be made that Jordan’s army will desperately need Assyria (perhaps ISIS) as an ally in this concluding Arab-Israeli war.
1. Egypt #13
2. Saudi Arabia #25
3. Syria #26
4. Jordan #67
5. Iraq #68
6. Lebanon #83
The Assyrian-Jordanian Connection
The point was made above that Assyria plays a dual role in Psalm 83. They fight against Israel alongside their Arab cohorts, but they also appear to closely align themselves with Jordan in the epic battle. The verse below says that Assyria joins with and helps the children of Lot, which represents Jordan. The children of Lot were Ammon and Moab. Today, Ammon represents Northern Jordan and Moab is associated with Central Jordan.
Assyria also has joined with them; They have helped the children of Lot. Selah (Psalm 83:8)
The Hebrew word for “joined” is “lavah,” and it can be translated as allied, or to stand with. In correlation, the Hebrew word for “helped” is “zeroa,” and it can mean a strong shoulder of support or armed forces. (ii) What Psalm 83 appears to be describing is Assyria becoming a strong ally of Jordan’s in the Psalm. They apparently not only align themselves with Jordan, but they somehow strengthen Jordanian forces in the fight.
This verse can be used to soundly debate those that teach that Psalm 83 is merely a prayer of lament on behalf of Israel against its historic enemies. Even though 2 Chronicles 29:30 clearly states that Asaph, the author of Psalm 83, is a prophet, some Psalm 83 naysayers refuse to treat this Psalm as a prophecy. To the contrary, Psalm 83:8 clearly specifies that Assyria proactively enjoins with Jordan in this confederate effort. At no time in Israel’s history did this ever occur until Israel was rebirthed as a nation in 1948. In 1948, 1967, and 1973 Syria and Jordan were involved in wars alongside with other Arab countries to fight against Israel.
The True Jordanian Descendants
It is important to note that the current ruling regime in Jordan is of the Hashemite kingdom. The Hashemites are descendants of Ishmael, and not from Lot’s children, Ammon and Moab. This means that the Hashemites are, at best, distant cousins to the Ammonites and Moabites, and as such, they don’t necessarily have any ancestral territorial claims to the modern day country of Jordan. Ishmael is thought to have generally settled in the land, which best represents Saudi Arabia today.
Although the Ishmaelites are also listed among the Psalm 83 members, Assyria does not join with and help them according to the prophecy. This might imply that King Abdullah II, the current Hashemite ruler of Jordan, may be deposed. Arab leaders being deposed or assassinated has become fairly commonplace since the inception of the Arab Spring in January of 2011. Gone are Mubarak of Egypt, Gaddafi of Libya, and Saleh of Yemen, just to name a few.
Presently, the true children of Lot appear to be integrated within the Palestinians. The Palestinians are a conglomeration of predominately Arab peoples, but Ammonite and Moabite descendants are among them. Approximately 60% of Jordan’s population is comprised of Palestinians and many of them are not supportive of the ruling Hashemite minority. In fact, some of them are pro-ISIS, because as Sunni Muslims they empathize with the plan of ISIS to establish a Sunni led Islamic Caliphate in the Levant.
Importantly, King Abdullah II is very troubled by ISIS. He believes that ISIS is a global terror threat and that Jordan could be the next country to be invaded by ISIS. The burgeoning terrorist organization has Jordan surrounded by Syria to the North and Iraq to the East. Jordan has received about 1.4 million refugees from the Syrian revolution and the ISIS crisis in Iraq. Some of these refugees are being recruited by ISIS.
It’s possible that the next military campaign of ISIS will be to invade Jordan. If they are successful they could possibly become aligned with the children of Lot as a dominant shoulder of strength in Psalm 83. Additionally, if they conquer Jordan they could technically take over defacto control of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Presently, the Waqf of Jordan maintains control of this holy site.
Is it conceivable that ISIS may someday takeover Jordan and subsequently target Jerusalem, which is the third holiest site in Islam? Zechariah 12:2 informs of a future time when the surrounding peoples will lay siege on Jerusalem. I believe this verse could be addressing the surrounding Arab confederacy of Psalm 83. Fortunately for Israel, Zechariah 12:6 predicts that the Israel Defense Forces will foil this attack.
According to Jeremiah 49:1-6, the country of Jordan will fight in a future war. However, the war that Jeremiah predicts is not waged between ISIS and Jordan, but appears to be fought between Jordan and Israel. We gather this from Jeremiah 49:2, which says:
Therefore behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “That I will cause to be heard an alarm of war In Rabbah (Amman) of the Ammonites; It shall be a desolate mound, And her villages shall be burned with fire. Then Israel shall take possession of his inheritance,” says the LORD.
As a result of this war, Israel takes possession of his inheritance, which is the land within Jordan that promised to the Hebrew patriarch Abraham in Genesis15:18. This land rests between the Nile and Euphrates Rivers. The country of Jordan exists within these boundaries. This takeover should include the mountainous territory of Petra, in Southern Jordan, because Petra is where the Bible says the Messiah returns to rescue and redeem the faithful remnant of the Jews from the genocidal attempt of the Antichrist. Zechariah 13:8-9 and Isaiah 63:1-5 provide the details about this end time’s episode.
Major events have been predicted concerning Jordan and Israel, and ISIS may be the catalyst that kicks things off.
Just saying…stay tuned…
