From the very first Prophecy Update we issued to begin the year 2001, we have stressed that there is no danger of Armageddon occurring until a false peace between Israel and the Palestinians comes to fruition. In our Prophecy Update Number 1 we indicated that several Islamic nations, before the year 2003, would come together to conduct meetings behind closed doors.  We said these meetings would result in a consolidated plan to lure Israel into a false sense of security, after which a surprise attack would be launched from the borders of Syria and Lebanon before 2006, probably between 2003 and 2005.  I believe the current activity in the Middle East will lead to this false period of peace, and it will lull Israel, the United States, and the rest of the western world, into a false sense of security.  As you peruse the quoted sections from our Prophecy Updates for the last eleven months which follow, bear in mind that they, from the very first up to Number 32A, were issued before September 11^th, and yet they continually emphasized the Islamic terrorists as being the ones to watch as the main players in the last day episode, which eventually leads to Armageddon.

In Prophecy Update Number 3 we stated: “So my advice to those who want to get a sense of when the false peace will occur is this: WATCH the terrorist groups.  When their actions drop to zero, and stay there for a while, you may rest assured it has been as a result of meetings behind closed doors between them and the Islamic nations that sponsor them.  I don’t pay much attention to any leader of Israel or the Palestinians.  The terrorist groups are the key to a false peace in the Middle East.  When they grasp that by appearing to cease their activities, they will then be able, at a later time, to kill many Jews, and drive the rest into the Negev, their attacks will stop.  They will settle back, and anxiously wait for the Jihad, a blitzkrieg that will catch Israel off guard.  So, watch for a cessation of terrorism.  Then, after a false period of false peace, look for a vicious surprise attack from the north out of Syria.” 

In Prophecy Update Number 8A we stated: “When you see Israel and Syria negotiating for the Golan Heights, the terrorist groups settling down, and the Palestinians seeming to be satisfied with less than Ehud Barak previously offered them, then Katie, bar the door!”

In Prophecy Update Number 11A we stated: “ I am persuaded it will take at least two to four years for this coordinated sneak attack to be planned.  It will require the united effort of all the Arab forces to defeat Israel.  And it must include the partnership of all Islamic terrorist groups.  They must cease their activities before Israel can be sure the peace is genuine.  It is my opinion that the war of Gog and Magog, found in the 38^th and 39^th Chapters of Ezekiel, will not occur before 2003, but is likely to start before 2006.”

In Prophecy Update Number 12 we included I Thessalonians 5:3 – For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. And we stated, concerning it: “Paul, in his use of ‘they’ and ‘them,’ is referring to the nation of Israel in unbelief.  However, it would also in part apply to all unbelievers in the last days.  So why have I given this discourse?  The word translated as ‘safety’ is ‘asphaleia,’ which means ‘the security one experiences when standing on something that is firmly fixed.’  It gives the one standing on it a sense of ‘not falling.’  The leaders of Israel have worn out the following expression: ‘We must have a peace with security.’  We have heard it used hundreds of times on the media, and it has been printed over and over again in countless numbers of articles.  Why is this important?  God indicates a time will come when Israel actually believes she has ‘a peace with security.’  Why is it so important that we understand this prediction?  Because we can know that the final war, involving Israel’s Islamic neighbors, will not occur until it is fulfilled.  Israel must be lulled into a false sense of security before any Islamic attack against her can be successful.  Until this happens, and it will, I merely wait for it to come to pass.  Then, when peace and security for Israel does appear to arrive in the Middle East, you can know that the final war of this age is about to occur.  Don’t believe all these terrorist attacks will suddenly cause the final war of this age to begin.  It is only when they cease that you can know the last war, which finally produces Armageddon some 3 and ½ years after it begins, is imminent.”   

In Prophecy Update Number 14 we gave a detailed outline of the Koran teaching of the advantage of a Jihad, and then stated:  “The only way the terrorist groups can be satisfied by their homeland leaders, is to be assured that if they hold off their activities for a brief period of time, then a Jihad can be launched against peaceful Israel as a surprise attack.  Those dying in this Great Jihad, as the martyrs of Allah, would be ushered eternally into the presence of Allah.  The key to peace rests with the terrorist groups.  When they can be assured the end result of their ceasing their activities will be the killing of many Jews, and a retaking of all their land, then they will stop their attacks, and await the promised Jihad.  So WATCH the terrorist groups.  When they finally cease their activities, peace will come for a brief period, and it will end with the sudden launching of a Jihad from Syria.”

Prophecy Updates 15 through 16 gave details of the differences between the Christian, Jewish, and Islamic beliefs.  These differences must lead to the battle of Armageddon.  In Prophecy Updates 16A through 31 we continued to emphasize that the terrorist groups were the key to a false peace being generated between Israel and the Palestinians. 

In Prophecy Update Number 31 we stated: “In order for Israel to believe what every leader of Israel since 1967 has said they must have, ‘A PEACE WITH SECURITY, A PEACE WITH SAFETY,’ the terrorist groups must temporarily cease their activities for a reasonable period of time, and a well coordinated plan of blitzkrieg must be formulated between Lebanon, Syria, Iran, and Iraq behind closed doors.”  It must be a lightning blitzkrieg attack, such that the United States cannot position its forces quickly enough to immediately engage in it.  Before the U.S. attack forces, represented by the ships, crews, marines, special forces, etc., which are always positioned in the Mediterranean and Persian Gulf waters, can bring in enough support to help stop the advance of the Islamic forces, they will have conquered Jerusalem.  In the initial attack there will be massive confusion as to who is who, and what is what, at ground combat level.  The intermingling of the combatants, consisting of the Palestinians attacking Israel from without and within, and Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran attacking her from without, along with massive numbers of Islamic planes flooding the skies to engage the smaller Israelite Air Forces, will make it difficult for pilots to have the desired effects on most ground targets.  I know, and accept, that the Air Force of Israel, man for man, is the best on this planet.  And I have tremendous respect for the ground forces of the IDF.  And I am proud to have been a part of the U.S. Military, and do not question the fighting abilities of these men and women.  If, after the attack, the U.S. had a couple of weeks to strategically position itself, and/or if the IDF was as alert as it is now, there is no way an Islamic attack could be successful.  But the War Contingency Plan of Israel, from its earliest conception, has included a War Evacuation Zone.  The plan is to evacuate all civilians to the Negev  if it seriously appears that an advancing army from the north stands a good chance of overrunning the land north of Beersheva.  The IDF is to be doing this as they fight to halt the advance of the enemy.  The interlacing of Palestinian and Israelite civilians with the military personnel of Israel, the Palestinians, Lebanese, Iran, and Iraq, will also add to the confusion of striking ground targets.  Seventy percent of the 5+ million Israelites live along the narrow coastal strip from Tel Aviv to Haifa.  If You want to see what I believe will happen to them, and the other Jews in the north and south, click on the Prophecy Archive Arrow at the top of this Prophecy Update Number 42, and peruse all our previous updates.  By the time the U.S. is able to marshal enough forces into the area, the Islamic forces will, for all practical purposes, have control of Israel north of Beersheva.  This will create a political problem for the U.S. in relation to the U.N., and the only path it can take will be to pressure Israel into a ceasefire.  This will greatly please the Islamic forces, because they have absolutely no plans to go into the Negev in pursuit of Israel.  They realize that the Negev is the most cleverly camouflaged zone on the face of this planet, as well as the most heavily fortified area ever created by man.

Prophecy Update 32A was issued after the unbelievable terrorist attack was unleashed on September 11, 2001.  In this prophecy update we stated:  “The horrific events that have occurred, which involved the World Trade Buildings and the Pentagon, have staggered the U.S. almost to unbelief.  We all expected some terrorist activity to occur within our borders, but nothing so well planned, and of such magnitude.  Yes, we will avenge this attack, and we will see justice done, and the guilty individuals and/or sheltering nations will pay the price for this cowardly attack.  But, in the final analysis, this act of inhuman horror will drive the United States to make a concerted, continuous push for peace in the Middle East.  Believe it or not, out of this waste of precious human life by these religious fanatics there will eventually come a period of false peace to the land of the Bible.  It will not occur overnight, but it will occur”

And so, even as I write, we are avenging this ungodly attack, and the terrorist groups, and the country harboring them, are paying a terrible price.  What has been, is, and shall be the result of our victory over the terrorists and the country that supported them?

It will drive the terrorist network underground.

All the other Islamic terrorists are watching what is happening to their fellow terrorist groups.

All Islamic nations are watching what happens to nations that harbor terrorist groups.

All Islamic nations are watching Israel make hay while the sun shines in their punishment of the Palestinians for terrorist attacks against them.

Most of the Islamic nations are mad as a wet hen about what is happening to the Palestinians, and their other Islamic brethren in Afghanistan, but are frustrated because they are powerless to do anything about it.

It will cause most of the Islamic nations to change their strategy of how to uproot Israel out of the land from Dan to Beersheva.
