And according to prophecy, they will be destroyed, and during this same period, Damascus will be wiped off the earth.
According to prophecy, the numbers and might of those arrayed against Israel will be so great that it will be impossible for Israel to win.
And that's exactly what is promised - that this mighty eradication of Israel's enemies will prove that only their God could have done it.
Now, you believe what you want.
I will too.
The difference? I see the other fulfillments to the letter. And as scary as it is, I see this one going down just as prophesied, as they've been batting 1.000.

Is a self hating jew someone who hates themselves because they don't like how they look, or something personal about themselves. Or are they jews who hate the current status quo of Isreal? Serious question.

mybigunit, your religious beliefs are your own. That you are unfamiliar with the unfulfilled prophecies I refer to would explain your offhand dismissal...
...For over 2,000 years, the very idea that there would ever be another Israel was ludicrous. The Jews were scattered all over creation. Yet it was promised, an event opened the door for that event, and it had been promised that they would be gathered from around the world - from the nations.
SOB! It happened!
Once gathered, they'll not be defeated, and they won't be leaving. And all the nations (those specifically named, but in general, are most of the nations of the old Persian Empire) will gather and come against them.
And according to prophecy, they will be destroyed, and during this same period, Damascus will be wiped off the earth.

Just to clarify what it is your talking about here: are you saying that the events surrounding the creation of Israel and the impacts this has had in the region are in fact DIVINELY inspired?
If this is the case are you then saying that because of the DIVINITY of Israel, divinity marked by the countless prophesies that foretold of the coming of the state of Israel, vindicates the state of Israel from any critique because the wiping of Damascus off the map, and the obliteration of any who stand in Israel's way is foretold?

Those who criticize and detest Israel would have done so even had Israel done everything perfect.

Sadly you choose to ignore reality in your belief of a magic destiny. Israel is no moral beacon. I will "cut them some slack" when they begin to act civilized. For the record, I support Israels right to exist, I simply do not support any Government that believes they are above the Law.

I think if America just turned around and told Israel "Good luck you are on your own." This would cause Israel to rethink what they want to do.
The war will not happen without the backing of the U.S. This is because Israel is too weak to take on many nations by itself.
Let's not forget Israel is a small piece of land, so it wouldn't take many missiles and bombs to annihilate the entire area.
