Shiite and Sunni Clay Now in Opposition Will Hold Together One Hour
When the Shiite and Sunni Clay and Iron Mixture Comes Together for a Common Cause, Namely the Defeat of Israel, They will Hold Together Long enough to Defeat Israel, as will All the other Sects of Islam. But the Sects cannot cleave together very long as Iron and Clay.
Daniel 2:41-43 – And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. [42] And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. [43] And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall MINGLE themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
The Hebrew word translated as “MINGLED” is the word “ARAB.”
Revelation 17:12,13 – And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings ONE HOUR with the beast.
[13] These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
ONE HOUR simply means a brief period of time, which I believe will be slightly more than three and one half years.
I have taught this would eventually come to pass in the Middle East for more than 32 years, and my best guesstimate for the time of the initial attack, associated with a united Jihad of 10 Arab nations against Israel, is that it is likely to occur at some point in time between 2010 and 2015.
The following was extracted from Haaretz. I do not believe there is any question that the Shiite-Sunni mingling will be on the increase in the Palestinian terror groups across the entire Middle East. I have taught for more than 27 years that I did not believe Egypt, Jordan, or Saudi would be involved in the initial attack against Israel, but that they would remain neutral until after the takeover of the land from Dan to Beersheba.
I covered this on our web site shortly after we initiated it. You may read a detailed outline of the coming conflict, and why I do not believe the nations of Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia will be among the 10 toes of Daniel’s Chapter 2 statue. My reasons are found in our Archive Prophecy Update Number 233B, and Whole Numbers 71 to 75.

Slain Jihad operative’s son: ‘Our entire family has turned Shi’ite’
By Avi Issacharoff
March 18, 2008
Instead of a Britney Spears ring tone, Shehadeh Shehadeh’s cell phone emits a recording of a speech by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. “Our entire family has turned Shi’ite,” he boasts. Last week, Israeli security forces operating in the West Bank town of Bethlehem killed his father, Mohammed Shehadeh, who was a senior commander in Islamic Jihad.
“My father decided to become a Shi’ite after he was deported to Marj Al-Juhur in Lebanon in 1992,” the son recounted. “He met there with all sorts of Shi’ite people and he saw that the oppression the Shi’ites have had to endure is very much like the oppression that the Palestinians have suffered.”
According to the 19-year-old Shehadeh, his father eventually came to “respect the Shi’ite commentary on the Koran.” He equates his father’s actions with those of Imam Hussein, whom Shi’ites believe to be Prophet Mohammed’s true follower.
“My father decided not to surrender and chose a martyr’s death, just like Imam Hussein, who fought at Karbala,” he said, referring to the 680 C.E. clash in what is now Iraq, which proved to be one of the most significant battles in Muslim history. In it, Hussein ibn Ali, Mohammed’s grandson and one of the founding fathers of the Shi’ite sect, was slain by Yazid I, the Umayyad caliph.
Sitting in his house in Bethlehem’s Wadi Maali neighborhood, the young man entertained a group of friends, all devout Muslims filled with extremist zeal. They were there to mourn his father’s loss with him.
The son is outspoken about his disdain for Israelis. “The Jews killed the prophets,” he reiterated several times in his conversation with Haaretz.
“Some Jews are all right and my father valued them, like Neturei Karta,” he conceded, referring to a fringe ultra-Orthodox sect that is rabidly anti-Zionist. “But most Jews are the enemy.”
“Even in your soccer matches, you scream that you want war,” he added, prompting knowing nods from his friends.
They are all dressed like Israeli youths their age. Yet throughout the eight years of the intifada, they have not seen a single Jewish Israeli. The Jewish neighborhood of Har Homa in East Jerusalem, just a few kilometers away across the separation fence, might as well be on another planet.
The son said that his father was not a member of Hezbollah, but did identify with the organization. He did not deny that his family received a telephone call from Nasrallah’s office in which Hezbollah offered it financial assistance.
One of Shehadeh’s friends said that many Palestinian opinion leaders are now joining the ranks of the Shi’a. He named Issa Batat, one of the Islamic Jihad’s senior commanders in the Bethlehem area, who is serving a sentence inside an Israeli prison, and Mohammed Kawamleh, a Jihad member who is still wanted by Israel’s security services.
Turning to the political implications of his father’s assassination, Shehadeh Shehadeh said: “What have you achieved by killing my father? You made a mockery, as always, of the Palestinian Authority.”
Mohammed Shehadeh, 45, was a former member of Fatah who later became a senior officer in the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of Islamic Jihad. He was killed last Wednesday night along with Imad al-Kamel, Issa Marzouk and Ahmad al-Balboul, also from Bethlehem.
They were ambushed in one of the town’s suburbs by Israeli troops dressed in civilian clothes and driving a civilian car.
The Israeli raid came at a delicate time for the PA and its president, Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah. Egyptian mediators were trying to broker a truce that would calm the hostilities between Israel and Hamas in and around Gaza, a truce that Abbas had called for after violence spiraled there earlier this month.
“Our prime minister, Salam Fayyad, went to meet your Defense Minister Ehud Barak. And whom did they send? Amos Gilad [a lower-level official]. Barak won’t even see Fayyad,” the younger Shehadeh said, referring to last week’s meeting of a trilateral monitoring committee on the peace process. “So you killed one Mohammed Shehadeh. But as former Hezbollah leader Abbas Mussawi said, each time a drop of blood falls to the ground from the body of a shahid [martyr], Allah knows how to use that drop. Now all of Bethlehem will become Mohammed Shehadeh.”
Outside the Shehadeh household, pessimism, frustration and desperation are everywhere.
It seems that the people of this relatively peaceful West Bank city have given up all hope of seeing results from the attempt to revive the peace process that the United States, Israel and the PA began
at last year’s Annapolis Summit. They view the process as dying rapidly, making way for another round of violence with Israel.
Shehadeh’s funeral, which he shared with the other three assassinated militants, was one of the largest the city has seen in recent years. Palestinian security forces estimate that it was attended by no less of 250,000 people.
“Me and my friends, we led this current intifada,” said Abu Dib, who is serving in one of the PA security forces and says he is wanted by Israel for his role in the violence. ” We are tired already.
But these boys, they were 10 years old when the clashes began.
Now they’re 18, and they know nothing but war and violence with Israel.”
Abu Dib speaks of “a whole new generation that grew up in the territories” and is more violent and radical. “They will be the ones who will lead the next confrontation,” he predicted.
