Sustain peace by preparing for war?

Zemirah Loc: Sojourner En Route...

The reason King Abdullah's threat is empty:

1) God won't allow anyone to seriously harm Israel.

2) Israel has more Jet Fighters and Tanks than Jordan could dream of, and they have nuclear armaments no one but the U.S., and possibly Russia, can match.

However, as the article says, if King Abdullah is sufficiently threatened by his own
Islamic radicals, and his family's reign is threatened, he will believe he has to attack Israel.

In my words, Jordan's attack would thereby give Israel reason to fight back in self defense, and to "annex" all of Jordan, which is within their own Biblically promised borders, and would therefore be fulfillment of prophecy.

Thanks for posting this. The above were my own remarks.

I copied some of their interesting headlines below, Peewee.

King Abdullah’s empty threats (abbrieviated)
By Caroline Glick:

Abdullah will not cancel his kingdom's peace treaty with Israel, because the treaty guarantees the survival of his regime.

(May 19, 2020 / JNS) Should Jordan’s King Abdullah have veto power over Israel’s plan to apply its sovereign laws to its cities, towns and villages in Judea and Samaria and to the Jordan Valley, in accordance with the Trump peace plan? Monday morning, senior leaders of Israel’s Blue and White Party began making noises to that effect.

In an interview with Germany’s Der Spiegel last Friday, King Abdullah threatened, “If Israel really annexes the West Bank in July, it would lead to a massive conflict with the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.”

News updates Monday morning reported that “senior officials” from Blue and White were working to condition Israel’s implementation of the sovereignty plan on securing prior approval from Jordan.

Later Monday morning, during the ceremony at the Foreign Ministry marking the arrival of incoming Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi, Ashkenazi said that Israel will implement the Trump peace plan “in dialogue with our neighbors, [and while] preserving of the peace treaties and the State of Israel’s strategic interests.”

Taken together with the morning news updates, Ashkenazi’s remarks raised the prospect that he and his partner, Defense Minister and vice prime minister Benny Gantz see Abdullah’s threat as a justification for abandoning their support for the sovereignty plan.

It bears recalling that during the negotiations leading up to the formation of the unity government between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Likud and Gantz and Blue and White, Netanyahu made Blue and White’s support for the sovereignty plan his only substantive condition for signing the deal.

Abdullah, of course, will never approve the sovereignty plan, so giving him a veto means shelving the plan. This raises the question of whether there is any reason to give the head of the Hashemite clan that sort of power. Can he cause Israel harm so grave that it should abandon the sovereignty plan to appease him?

Amen and Amen thanks for that Zemirah we are approaching the last days for sure.

That's why this is the most interesting time to be alive. We are going to see some awesome stuff happen in our lifetimes. Excellent reporting, by the way, I've read many of your comments previously. I can not look away from Israel. That's where most of the important action is about to take place, spiritual and human. That's why I sent you those links. They are my most trusted sources in Israel. Israel definitely has its own deep state. The Orthodox, Supreme Court, and Gantz are proof of that. I've loved and prayed hard for Israel and Bibi for years, I still don't know which way he will go when extreme pressure is applied. If it's true he wanted children microchipped, I will have to change my opinion of him.

I have other weird news that is pretty bad and it's about Satanist and children. PM me and only then will I tell you. Your choice to know. I won't be posting it on OPP or anywhere else.

There are also reports from Varginha, Brazil, and if true, it's a new Roswell.

Very busy and exciting night and I'm very tired and sleepy. I'll check back in when I wake up. Take care and prayers sent as always, on you and your family's behalf.

Thanks, Peewee.

Bibi's knowledge of the admonitions against the "mark of the beast in the hand or forehead" are peripheral at best, as they are in the book of Revelation, in the Christian New Testament.

Bibi Netanyahu is a practicing Orthodox Jew, but not a Messianic Jew, Peewee. As such, his reference is the Old Testament, the Jewish Tanakh, not the New Testament.
