The End of Israel?

Richard Edmondson

A distinct possibility, I would say. By the way, as the fourth and final blood moon of the tetrad approaches, chaos and pandemonium have broken out at the Al Aqsa Mosque. Israeli soldiers and Jewish settlers have repeatedly stormed the mosque, while Palestinians have fought to hold them off.

This has been particularly intense of late with the Jewish fall holiday season upon us. Yesterday was Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year; Yom Kippur is coming up starting on September 22, while the blood moon lunar eclipse will take place September 28, on Sukkot.

Much of these clashes we are now seeing appear to be motivated by a strong desire by certain Jewish organizations, such as the Temple Institute, to rebuild a Jewish temple at the site. You can click here to access a report posted today at the Electronic Intifada, or  check out an article I wrote last year entitled The Abomination of Desolation and which covers much the same ground. The difference between then and now is that the movement to tear down the Al Aqsa Mosque and replace it with a “Third Temple” has gained steam. Quite a bit of it.

According to Ma’an News, the clashes have now expanded from the Al Aqsa Mosque compound all the way across East Jerusalem, and quite naturally in the course of all this, we are hearing about Israeli brutalities, including attacks against children. Here is one such report.
