The Excerpt from IMRA, which follows Archive Birth Pang Number 41, is a r ather timely one, especially since I believe Israelis are likely to find themselves surrounded by their enemies in the Negev beginning
at some point in time between 2010 and 2015.

Revelation 12:14 – And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Revelation 12:6 – And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
The woman is Israel. The place that God has prepared for her is the Negev wilderness. A time is one 360 day year, times are two 360 day years, and half a time is 180 days, which totals 1260 days or 3 and ½ prophetic years. Both these scriptures describe the time period of 42 prophetic months (30 days per month) before the end of the Tribulation Period.
When the antichrist launches his lightning Jihad from
the north it will be a two pronged attack.
Syrian and Lebanese troops will launch a blitzkrieg strike southward along the western lees of the Galilean and Samaritan mountain.
The Palestinians will zoom northward along the western lee of the Judean mountains, coming out of Gaza to link with their comrades coming down from the north.
This will cut off coastal Israel from interior Israel. Some 70% of the Jewish population lives along the narrow coastal strip from Tel Aviv to Haifa. They will be kept pinned down by thousands of katyusha rockets being launched from the bluff top cities of Tul Karm and Qalqilya in the Samarian Mountains.
It will eventually be necessary to air evacuate the population out of this area across the Mediterranean into the Negev, as stated in 12:14. The other battle prong, consisting of troops from Iraq, Syria, and Iran, will be directed southward along the west bank of the Jordan River in a lightning strike.
Palestinians will pour down the hundreds of dendritic West Bank valleys in the eastern lee of the Samarian Mountains, armed with shoulder held antitank launchers. They will destroy many of the Israeli tanks coming north to intercept the southward moving Arab tank units of Syria, Iraq, and Iran. The Jewish population to the east of the coastal sections, and to the west of the Jordan River, will flee on l
and in whatever types of transportation may be available.
This has long been the national Israel contingency plan that is to be carried out in the event of attack from the north, and the Negev has been their emergency contingency evacuation area since 1948.

1,690 Bomb Shelters in North Israel Inaugurated in the Presence of Defense Minister Ehud Barak

1,690 Bomb Shelters in North Israel Inaugurated in the Presence of Defense Minister Ehud Barak
1,690 bomb shelters, located in nine Israeli communities bordering Lebanon, were officially inaugurated yesterday following months of renovation work funded by the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ), a Chicago-based non-profit organization supported largely by American Christians.
The dedication ceremony, held in the town of Shlomi, was attended by Israel’s Defense Minister Ehud Barak, and IFCJ President & Founder Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, as well as mayors and municipal leaders from the towns of Acre, Nahariya, Tiberias, Carmiel, Kiryat Shmona, Safed, Hatzor HaGalilit, Ma’alot, and Shlomi.
Begun in August 2007, the renovation project was initiated by IFCJ at a cost of $10 million and involved upgrading shelters located in privately-owned residential buildings, providing badly-needed protection for thousands of people.
The work was carried out in coordination with the I.D.F. home frontcommand and participating local authorities.
“Given the escalating threats of war and terrorism against Israel, the completion of these shelters could not have come at a better time,” Rabbi Eckstein said.” I’m heartened to know that thanks to our donors who gave so generously to fund this critical project, residents of Northern Israel will have safe places to take refuge in the event of attack.”
Commending IFCJ and its work, Defense Minister Barak said, “Although we hope there won’t be a need for the residents to use these shelters, their lives are now more secure. On behalf of the State of Israel, the Ministry of Defense and the citizens of Israel, I want to thank Rabbi Eckstein and IFCJ for the security they are bringing to Israel.”
Based on lessons learned from the 2006 Lebanon War, local authorities in each city will open shelters during times of emergency, while also providing appropriate supervision and maintenance of shelters during periods of quiet.
Founded in 1983, IFCJ has a dual mission to foster better understanding and cooperation between Christian and Jews and to build broad support for Israel and the Jewish people around the world. IFCJ works to help Jews immigrate to Israel from the former Soviet Union, Ethiopia, India and other troubled countries; fight poverty and aid victims of war and terrorism in Israel; and extend aid to poor elderly Jews and orphans in the former Soviet Union.
