A Worldwide Caliphate with its Sharia Law

Finding high levels of support in British Arabs

1/3 of UK Muslim Students support Islamic Jihad

July 29, 2008

http://www.tribulationperiod.com

While the Western World settles back in full confidence of its nuclear umbrella to protect it from all harm,

the major enemy we have is ready to destroy us from within by a religious fanaticism the west refuses to acknowledge as our major danger. The forefront of an Islamic offensive is now beginning to function quite effectively in Europe, and I believed it is too late for them to do much about it, because their enemy within is too deeply rooted to root out.

And the spirit of antichrist belief within Islam will not be rooted out until the Second Advent of Christ.

The philosophy that the people of the United States can somehow merge our two societies and both live under the laws of the constitution of the United States is madness, an “Alice in Wonderland” fairy tale. The United States is going down the tubes regardless of who becomes our next President, but if we end up with a Democratic President and the continuation of a Democratic Congress, we will slide into oblivion and the grasp of Islamic internal power growth much sooner.

Satan’s spiritual kingdom has long been based along the Euphrates and Tigris since the Garden of Eden.

It is there that spiritual battles were fought between Satan’s demonic king of Persian and God’s two chief Princes Michael and Gabriel, even while Daniel was recording his great prophecies.

Daniel 10:13 – But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

Daniel 10:20,21 – Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. [21] But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.

And God has the fifth Revelation vial poured out on the seat of Satan’s Spiritual Tigris-Euphrates Valley kingdom, thereby preparing the way for the kings of the east in vial six and, as frogs leave the source of their liquid habitation when it dries up, three chief demonic spirits go forth to draw the kings of the earth together for the final battle of Armageddon. They represent the full force of what is often called “The Satanic Trinity.”

Revelation 16:10-13 – And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, [11] And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. [12] And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

[13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. [14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

‘1/3 of UK Muslim students back jihad’

July 28, 2008

Jonny Paul, the Jerusalem Post, London , THE JERUSALEM POST

Nearly a third of British Muslim students polled in a new report to be published on Monday said that killing in the name of religion could be justified.

The report by the London-based Center for Social Cohesion (CfSC), entitled “Islam on Campus: A Survey of UK Student Opinion,” showed that 32 percent of Muslim students said killing in the name of religion could be justified, while 60% of active members

of on-campus Islamic societies said the same.

Only 2% of non-Muslims polled felt this way.

Based on a specially commissioned YouGov poll of 1,400 students as well as on field work and interviews, the report showed that most Muslim students supported secularism and democratic values, were generally tolerant of other minorities and rejected violence in the name of their faith. However, the report also revealed high levels of support for

the adoption of Sharia law into British law and for a worldwide caliphate.

Forty percent of Muslim students polled supported the introduction of Sharia into British law for Muslims, and a third supported the introduction of a worldwide caliphate based on Sharia law; 58% of active members of Islamic societies supported the idea.

In addition, 43% of Muslim students said Islam was compatible with secularism.

“These findings are deeply alarming,” said CfSC researcher Hannah Stuart, one of the report’s authors. “Students in higher education are the future leaders of their communities. Yet significant numbers of them appear to hold beliefs which contravene liberal, democratic values. In addition, there are signs of growing religious segregation on campus.

These results are deeply embarrassing for those who have said that there is no extremism in British universities.”

Stuart also said active members of campus Islamic societies “often hold opinions that are significantly more extreme than those of ordinary Muslim students. The government needs to be wary about treating members of these societies as being representative of all Muslim students.”

On attitudes toward Jews, only 7% said they had very little or no respect at all for Jews, while 79% said they respected Jews.

The report also found that many non-Muslim students held negative attitudes toward Islam. However, a significant minority (9%) said they did not respect Muslims. Of non-Muslim students, 50% stated that Islam and Western democracy were incompatible and 55% said Islam was incompatible with secularism.

CfSC director Douglas Murray said the report showed that Islamist groups such as the Federation of Student Islamic Societies (FOSIS) did not represent mainstream Muslim opinion.

“It is vital that students and government understand that groups like FOSIS – who often promote a highly conservative interpretation of Islam – are not representative of all Muslim students. Empowering these groups risks giving an official stamp of approval to extreme forms of Islam,” he said.

The report recommends that the government, university authorities and the Muslim community act to address these problems.

“It is important that pluralist and democratic Muslim voices are encouraged and promoted and that intolerant voices are sidelined. University authorities need to urgently take steps to reduce Islamist influence on campus. Universities should be places where people of all faiths and backgrounds can come together in an environment of mutual tolerance,” Murray said.

Rip Van Winkle Islam Just Woke Up!

Islamic radicals finally awake to Reality!

It has taken Muslims 40 years to Wakeup

And know they must lull Israel to Dreamland

Plus being better prepared than in 4 prior Wars

To have any hope of being able to defeat Israelis

In surprise attack when Israel thinks it has Security

July 29, 2008

http://www.tribulationperiod.com/

I realize it seems impossible at present for a false peace to come to Israel. But the events that are occurring now, involving our treatment of a ruling government which sponsored terrorism, is having a profound effect on those governing bodies across the Islamic world. Syria and Iran are among the leaders of Arab nations who do not want to see the terrorist groups destroyed or severely crippled. They want Israel out of all the land from Dan to Beersheva.

This has been, and will continue to be, the objective of a consolidated Arab brotherhood. It will not change.

They are as one in this objective of national interest. There is only one way they can save face and, at the same time, preserve the basic structure of their terrorist networks. They must meet with the extremists, behind closed doors, in a series of meetings, and lay out a definite plan of a future sudden Jihad against Israel that will catch her unawares.

The extremists, from which the terrorist groups stem within each Islamic nation, under the plan would stop activities, allowing Syria, the Palestinians, and Israel to eventually reach an agreement on the West Bank and the Golan Heights.

A sudden, abrupt end of terrorist activities, in the land from Dan to Beersheva, would be so shocking after some 60 years of terrorist activity, that after only a brief period of non-activity, Israel would

believe the peace to be genuine.

Do not be deceived by the recent actions of Syria and Sudan as being a sign they are no longer behind the use of terrorism as a matter of national interest.

It is simply that the military actions of the U.S. have made their national interests shift directions for a time. The bottom line to ending all Islamic terrorism, at least for a while, is for their sponsoring nations to call them off long enough for the first phase of the current peace plan to be implemented. Then, after a brief period of false peace, with no terrorist activity, a successful Jihad blitzkrieg could be launched from Syria. The Islamic nations know full well that Israel can only be driven out of Israel from Dan to Beersheva by a well coordinated, fully united effort by a large number of Arab countries. They tried it with three on three separate occasions in 1948, 1967, and 1973, and all without success. They also know they cannot do it, even with a large number, unless they have the element of surprise on their side.

Iran seeks ‘common ground’ with West

July 28, 2008

JPost.com Staff , THE JERUSALEM POST

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Monday that Iran would seek common ground with the United States and five other world powers that have proposed incentives for Teheran to freeze its nuclear enrichment program.

Speaking to NBC News less than a week before a deadline for its response to the incentives package, Ahmadinejad said progress would depend on the sincerity of the apparent US shift in its approach to Teheran.

After meeting Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalilin in Geneva on July 19, Western officials said that Teheran had two weeks to respond to an offer of holding off on further UN sanctions if Iran freezes its

nuclear program. The two-week deadline expires on Saturday.

“They submitted a package and we responded by submitting our own package,” Ahmadinejad said. “It’s very natural.

In the first steps, we are going to negotiate over the common ground as they exist inside the two packages. If the two parties succeed in agreeing over the common ground, that will help us to work on our differences as well, to reach an agreement.”

Ahmadinejad reportedly said he believes the oil market is overvalued in part because of manipulation.

NBC also quoted Ahmadinejad as saying Iran was not seeking nuclear arms and that such weapons were outdated.

Iran has said it would not freeze enrichment to start preliminary talks nor would it suspend enrichment to start formal negotiations on the incentives package offered by the six powers – the US, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany.

In a policy shift, a US diplomat attended the Geneva talks, which the Islamic Republic has characterized as a success for Teheran.

On Monday, Ahmadinejad told NBC: “The main question here is whether this approach is a continuation of the old approach or if it is a totally new approach.

“If this is the continuation of the old process, the Iranian people need to defend their right, its interests as well,” he said. “But if the approach changes, we will be facing a new situation and the response by the Iranian people will be a positive one.”

Most Peaceful Syrian Statement in 60 Years

Syria wants the Golan Heights

back before War

Most Valuable Islamic Real Estate in the Middle East

Best defense against being caught by a surprise Attack

Via A Massive Onslaught Of Islamic Forces From The North!

July 28, 2008

http://www.tribulationperiod.com

The mood swing by Syria and its representatives over the last couple of months has been quite remarkable.

I believe Syria, Iran, Hizbullah, Hamas, and the bulk of the other terrorist states and organization have finally come to understand they cannot defeat Israel unless she is lulled into some form of a peace and safety mindset. I believe the enemies of Israel are now working to give Israel that kind of mindset. It will take time to generate such a mindset, which is one of the reasons I do not expect a Middle East War in 2008 or 2009, but have chosen the time frame from 2010 to 2015 as the most likely time for such an attack, and the beginning of the final Middle East war of the Gentile Age.

I believe the odds of war after 2010 begins will increase each year, and that it will have broken out by 2015.

I believe what I wrote in Archive Prophecy Update Number 12, which we issued more than seven years ago, is now finally coming to fruition.

Begin Archive Prophecy Update Number 12

PROPHECY UPDATE 12

March, 2001

The Apostle Paul had a deep spiritual burden for his own people, the nation of Israel. His born again heart longed for them to forsake their unbelief by turning to Jesus as their Messiah. He expresses this desire in Romans 10:1 as he states: “Brethren, my hearts desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they might be saved.” There is no question that Paul saw Israel as being in unbelief.

But he knew that some future day they would believe, and consequently be grafted back into God’ s olive tree,

from which they had been broken off because of their unbelief. He stated this principle in Romans 11:20, as he wrote: “Well, because of unbelief they were broken off.” But he goes on in verse 23 to indicate they will one day believe, and thereby restored to being part of God’s olive tree. He writes, “And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.” I said all this to explain the words “they” and “them” in I Thessalonians 5:3, where Paul states: “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh on them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 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 last four 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 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 united 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.

Syrian US ambassador: Let’s make peace

July 28, 2008

JPost.com Staff , THE JERUSALEM POST

“Here’s the grand thing on offer: Let us sit together, let us make peace, let us end once and for all the state of war,” said Syrian Ambassador to the US Imad Mustafa in a recorded statement aired by Army Radio on Monday .

Mustafa is considered a senior diplomat and close confidante of Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Mustafa made the dovish statements in an interview he gave to Americans for Peace Now, an organization affiliated with the left-wing organization Peace Now.

Mustafa said the current Turkish-mediated talks were an “historic opportunity” for Israel to make peace not only with Syria, but also

with the rest of the Arab world.

“We desire to end the state of war between us…and to recognize each other, live as neighbors,” Mustafa is heard in the interview as saying. The ambassador to the US was a personal, hand-picked nomination of Assad.

Mustafa said Syria’s official position hasn’t changed in the past 15 years. “We have been consistently having one message to the Israelis: We want to make peace, we believe in a fair and comprehensive

peace with you.

It’s the Israelis who waver on this…sometimes they say ‘yes, we want to talk to you,’ sometimes they [say] ‘no, we don’t want to talk to you.'”

An analyst speaking on Army Radio who personally knows Mustafa said the ambassador was a personal friend of

the Syrian president, and that his statement was most likely coordinated with Assad, thus lending it the weight of the regime.

Mustafa reiterated Syria’s demand that peace with Israel be conditioned on ceding the strategic Golan Heights.

While the statement by Mustafa did not contain information not sounded before by other Syrian ministers and diplomats, the phrasing he used struck a far more dovish note than the carefully phrased statements by Assad and other Syrian officials, which often contain both peaceful overtures and threats of military aggression in case peace talks fail.

After the colonial empires began pulling out of Africa following World War II, I watched hoards of Islamic believers follow their retreating masters into Europe, and from my first actual contact with the reality of it in 1952, I have seen Europe flooded with some 30 million practicing Muslims

at the present time. Europeans have not changed Muslim beliefs or culture, Muslims are

changing the European way of life.

The laws of Europe are now threatened by the Islamic laws of Sharia, and those of the Islamic faith are dealing with crime and punishment by their own laws, separate from the codes of European law. We are just starting to get a tiny taste of a religion that wants to live as part of the American society, but be judged by the religions laws and customs of Islam.

One of the characteristics of

the Antichrist is that he shall wear out

the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws during the time he has them pinned down in the Negev wilderness for some three and one-half years.

Egyptian Islamic Preacher ‘Amr Khaled: Within 20 Years, Muslims Will Be Majority in Europe; Muslims in Europe Should Be “Ambassadors for Islam”

Following are excerpts from an interview with Egyptian Islamic preacher Amr Khaled, which aired on Dream 2 TV on May 10, 2008.

To view this clip, visit http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/1821.htm.

“The Muslims Keep Having Children, While the Europeans Do Not – This Means That Within 20 Years, the Muslims Will Be a Majority”

Interviewer: “How do you view the Islamic scene in Europe?”

Amr Khaled: “The most important thing is that there are 25-30 million Muslims in Europe. This figure has many implications.”

Interviewer: “There are 25-30 million Muslims in Europe.”

Khaled: “The Muslims keep having children, while the Europeans do not.

This means that within 20 years, the Muslims will be a majority, which may have an exceptional influence on the decision-making. This makes other groups very angry, and they consider this to be very dangerous. These are the enemies of Islam, as we know full well.

“But the peoples of the West know nothing about the Muslims.

Statistics show that 70% do not know who the Prophet of the Muslims is.

The fact that Muhammad is the Prophet of the Muslims is not known to many people in the West. That’s just one example.”

Interviewer: “The name of the Prophet is unknown to…”

Khaled: “Not just his name, but who he was. Even if they know that the name of the Muslims’ Prophet is Muhammad, they know nothing about him, about his history, when he lived, and so on. They know nothing about him.

“The goal of the enemies of Islam is to drive the 20-30 million [Muslims] out of Europe, or to provoke them in a way that would lead to their banishment. If [the Muslims] remain in Europe, this will be dangerous, so they must leave.”

Interviewer: “So you are making a very important claim – that there are intentional and premeditated provocations in order to drive the Muslims out of their current home – Europe.”

Khaled: “Yes. When the offensive cartoons first appeared, it was strange to see that the button they press [to provoke] the Muslims – the Koran and the Prophet Muhammad, which are sacred to them – is the same button that is sacred to the West – freedom of speech. What is sacred in the West – freedom of speech – is their equivalent of the Koran… That is what they hold sacred.

The West is attacking what the Muslims hold sacred by means of what the West itself holds sacred.”[…]

“In Order to Drive the Muslims Out of Europe, the European Peoples Must Have a Pretext… Their Solution Is… To Do Things That Would Provoke the Muslims”

Khaled: “In order to drive the Muslims out of Europe, the European peoples must have a pretext giving them legitimacy to do so, like they had in Bosnia. After all, Bosnia is in Europe, so nobody can claim this is far-fetched.

Bosnia is not far away. Therefore, their solution is to continue the provocation [against the Muslims], and to continue to do things that would provoke the Muslims, who would make mistakes, such as bombings and other unusual responses. Then the European peoples would say: ‘What’s this? What are they doing?’ Then they would have a pretext for what would follow.”

Interviewer: “So this is mental preparation for the Europeans to drive out the Muslims. These are very serious claims.”

Khaled: “This is my interpretation of things. Otherwise, what do they gain by offending [the Muslims] in different ways all the time, when the outcome is known in advance?”

Interviewer: “It is indeed illogical.”

Khaled: “People will tell you that Denmark suffered economic losses, and this is true. So why does it continue? Because some believe that it is more beneficial to [drive out] the 30 million, and that it outweighs the boycott. So they are pushing in that direction.”

Europe’s “30 Million Muslims… [Must] Infiltrate [Society]… Each Person Should Say: ‘I Am An Ambassador For Islam'”

“What is the solution? We must be very realistic and positive. What needs to be done? What we need is for the 30 million Muslims in Europe to infiltrate [society], and to show European and Western society how respectable and successful they are. Those are the key words: ‘I am respectable and successful.’ If the 30 million Muslims manage to ignore these provocations, and to channel their anger in support of the Prophet Muhammad and of Islam into becoming walking propaganda machines…

“Each person should say: ‘I am an ambassador for Islam,’ and they should all take action throughout Europe – in the companies where they work, in sports clubs, and in any place where they can mingle and fit in with the Europeans, and where they

can show them their moral values and success. That will abolish the plan, and the Muslims will remain in Europe.

We really need 10 years for the Muslims in Europe to become firmly established and very successful.”

At the end of the final War of this Age

The United States will not stand with Israel

Nor will any nation on this planet stand with Her

Only the great prince Michael will stand up for Israel!

July 28, 2008

http://www.tribulationperiod.com/

Daniel 7:25,26 – And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. [26] But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.

Revelation 16:13,14 – And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and

out of the mouth of the false prophet. [14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Daniel 11:45 to 12:1 – And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall

help him. [1] And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

The reason that “none shall help him” is very simple, it is because none CAN help him, as the first verse following in the 12th Chapter validates. He, and the mighty army he calls together, to come and destroy Israel (which has been militarily trapped in the Negev for three and one-half years), are both on the verge of being zapped by God.

When God’ s wrath i

s poured out on them there is no power that can help antichrist, or his army.

Remembering the chapter divisions were supplied by the KJV translators, the next verse in a continuous narrative would be 12:1, and when Michael stands up for Israel, it is all over for the Antichrist.

According to Ezekiel 38:19 to 39:2, five-sixths of the antichrist’s army will be destroyed by natural phenomena God unleashes on them.

Ezekiel 38:19-23 – For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel; [20] So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.

[21] And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord God: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. [22] And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. [23] Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord. [1] Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: [2] And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:

This unleashing of God’s power is also mirrored by most of the Old Testament prophets in many places, and most emphatically by John when God’s wrath is poured out at Armageddon.

Revelation 16:16-21 – And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. [17] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [19] And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

[20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [21] And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

And, as the battle of Armageddon is ended by the 2nd Advent of Christ, the doom of the false prophet, antichrist, and his armies, is graphically described by John in Revelation.

Revelation 19:19-21 – And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

In secret note, Olmert says Bush has deserted Israel against Iran

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

July 26, 2008, 3:42 PM (GMT+02:00)

Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert this week shot off a strong secret note to US President George W.

Bush, DEBKAfile’s sources reveal, protesting the administration’s strategic steps toward rapprochement with Iran.

Israel was not forewarned, Olmert wrote bitterly, although these steps directly violated US-Israel understandings on Iran of the past year.

Bush, he said, had broken the promises he gave in face-to-face meetings with the prime minister earlier this year. If nothing is done to arrest Iran’s progress towards a nuclear bomb, Olmert warned, Iran will have all the components ready for assembly by early 2009, that is, in 6-8 months.

This time line is tighter than the one the prime minister gave the Democratic Senator Barack Obama when he visited Jerusalem Wednesday, July 23.

DEBKAfile’s Washington sources add that Bush has not replied to the letter, although the prime minister wrote in a spirit of extreme alarm over the threat to Israel’s security and indeed survival building up in Tehran.

The US response apparently came in the way American military chiefs brushed off Israeli chief of staff Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, when he presented intelligence updates on the state of Iran’s military nuclear program. He was received with great honor during his week’s working visit, but his hosts declined to address the working theories guiding the IDF with regard to that program.

Res. Maj-Gen Yizhak Ben-Israel, former head of IDF Weapons Authority, strongly refuted Saturday, July 26, the estimate published by Time Magazine quoting former Mossad chief Ephraim Halevi (up until 2002) as speaking out against an Israeli attack on Iran, because it “could have an impact on us [Israel] for the next 100 years.”

Ben-Israel, a world-class expert on Iran’s nuclear and missile programs, countered that Israel’s failure to attack Iran’s nuclear sites would “jeopardize its security.” Time is working against the Jewish state,” he said.

As he spoke, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced his country’s nuclear program had managed to double the uranium-enriching centrifuges operating in Natanz to 6,000.
