LATEST FROM THE DOOM AND GLOOM MAN!
Hamas + Violence + Al Qaeda + Smuggling + Brigades = No Peace

The terrorist activity coming out of, occurring in, and around the Gaza Strip, will not allow a peace agreement to be finalized with Israel. The perpetrators of this activity must be literally destroyed by a massive sweep through the strip by direct military force. A presence of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Al Qaeda, all the different Terror Brigades and all other terrorist groups must be eliminated, before there can be any possible hope of peace in Israel. And even then, if such a thing were possible, it would be just a matter of time, after the IDF turned it over to Fatah, that all the same terrorist groups of rats would creep back in, and start the same operations they now employ.
The only real difference between the common goal of both Fatah and Hamas, which is to destroy Israel,
is HOW to do it.
Their motive is the same, but their techniques of doing it are different.
So there is only one future scenario which can end in peace – the Second Advent of Jesus Christ, for he is
the only one who can bring peace to Israel and the rest of the world. Since the Scriptures are quite clear that a horrific time of sheer terror, war, and destruction must occur before his Second Advent, I am extremely anxious for it to begin. It absolutely will occur, the only question is precisely WHEN and, while I do admit I guess as to the time, in spans of years, when it will begin, such as 2010 to 2015, I am only certain it will be SOON.
I suppose I deserve the title of “the doom and gloom man,” but I have no choice in the matter. Actually, for those that know me, I am viewed as a happy ole nicumpoop, grandfather, and great-grandfather, one who loves and thoroughly enjoys life.
I have been the pastor of Dardanelle MBC for more than 33 years, which is a loving and patience local body of Christ. So it seems strange that I am so anxious for all Hades to now come roaring on the earth as quickly as possible. The answer as to why I am so anxious is a very simple one.
Romans 8:19-23 – For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. [20] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, [21] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [23] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
I Corinthians 2:9,10 – But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. [10] But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
Revelation 22:20 – He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
The following series of news events, extracted as articles and excerpts the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs – Daily Alert, give ample reason to see why there can be no peace in the land from Dan to Beersheba, until the Second Advent of the Messiah of Israel occurs at the end of the Tribulation Period.
U.S. Admits Mideast Peace Deal Hangs on Fate of Gaza
A senior U.S. official acknowledged on Saturday that an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal would depend on the fate of Gaza, which is controlled by the Islamist movement Hamas.
The official said the fate of Bush’s targeted peace deal by the end of this year depended on Abbas taking back control of Gaza. “I don’t think in the long term that an agreement is going to work if Hamas continues to control Gaza,” he said.
The official also drew a distinction between any Israeli-Palestinian agreement and its actual implementation. “The parties will have to agree on how they want to structure the agreement, but I think that there have been general thoughts that there will be first a framework and later a comprehensive agreement….This will all play out in quite a period of time.” (AFP/Yahoo)
Olmert: Bush Said No Peace Deal Will Be Implemented Until Violence from Gaza Ends
Prime Minister Olmert reported to the Cabinet Sunday on the visit to Israel of President Bush: “The President…reiterated the U.S.’s absolute commitment that no agreement between us and the Palestinians can be carried out on the ground before the Roadmap is implemented in full, including all of its commitments regarding the security of the State of Israel both in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria. There is no separation between Gaza and Judea and Samaria regarding the Palestinians’ commitments. The U.S. President said that we are discussing the establishment of two states for two peoples and not three states for two peoples.
The emphasis on this is very important.” (Prime Minister’s Office)
Al-Qaeda Militants Ransack Gaza School
Militants from the “Army of Believers, Al-Qaeda in Palestine” ransacked the American International School in northern Gaza, three days after armed men fired anti-tank rockets at the building, causing serious damage. The private school’s director, Rabhi Salem, said Saturday that five buses and a car were set ablaze.
The school, which was also the target of a bomb attack in April 2007, has an enrollment of 150 students.

Hamas smuggled $100 million into Gaza in recent weeks, Israel Security Agency head Yuval Diskin told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee Sunday.
Hundreds of Gazans returning from the haj in Mecca were allowed direct entry via Egypt, contrary to an earlier agreement with Israel, which insisted that they must cross through Israeli-controlled checkpoints.
“The money that was smuggled is not being distributed to the residents, but is being used by Hamas people only,” he said. (Ha’aretz)
