In The War I Believe Begins
Between years 2011 & 2015!

I DON’T expect the Islamic attack, which begins the final war’s sudden destruction of the age of the Gentiles in I Thessalonians 5:3, will begin this year, but I do believe it will begin at some point in time prior to 2015.
Some three and one-half years after war begins the final battle of Armageddon will be fought and Christ will return to end it, after which Antichrist and the False Prophet will be cast alive into a lake of fire, and Satan the dragon will be confined to the earth’s interior for 1000 years.
I Thessalonians 5:3,4 – 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. [4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
Isaiah 26:17 to 27:1 – Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord. [18] We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen. [19] Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. [20] Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. [21] For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
[1] In that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
Revelation 19:13 to 20:3 – And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
[14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath
of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. [17] And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] 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.

Analysis: The IDF intel

Deterring Hizbullah, preparing world for next war.
The IDF’s decision to declassify maps, videos and photos of Hizbullah positions in southern Lebanon carries an element of risk. Hizbullah will see that the IDF knows where its positions are in the village of el-Khiam, and will likely make a similar assumption regarding its positions in other villages. It could then move its assets and try hiding them again in different buildings.
The IDF weighed the risks, but decided on Wednesday that it had more to gain than to lose in releasing the information.
There are several reasons for the move.
First and foremost is the continued Israeli effort to bolster its deterrence in face of Hizbullah and its continued military buildup in Lebanon. The deterrence, created by the Second Lebanon War in 2006 as well as by the assassination in 2008 of Hizbullah military commander Imad Mughniyeh, is something that needs to be maintained on a regular basis.
The declassification of the highly sensitive intelligence sends a strong and clear message to Hizbullah that the IDF knows what it is doing in southern Lebanon and where its military installations are located. Also, the chances that Hizbullah will move its assets are deemed slim.
“There is too much to move,” one senior officer explained.
The second effect the IDF is hoping to achieve is diplomatic.
In recent weeks, leading up to the war’s fourth anniversary, the IDF launched a diplomatic campaign aimed at educating the international community about Hizbullah’s military buildup ahead of the next war and the consequences that strategy entails.
In June, Brig.-Gen. Yossi Heiman, head of the IDF’s Strategic Planning Department, flew to UN headquarters and presented the evidence to UN officials. A few weeks later, the Northern Command’s chief intelligence officer, Col.
Ram, presented the evidence to UNIFIL commander Maj.-Gen. Alberto Asarta Cuevas.
“The world needs to understand that Hizbullah is deliberately positioning its military positions inside civilian centers, and that this strategy has consequences,” a top IDF officer said.
The IDF has said in the past that it will respond disproportionately to a new Hizbullah attack, and that each of the 160 villages in southern Lebanon where the guerrilla group has established
its positions will be targeted.
The release of the information on Wednesday also reflects an IDF understanding that the Goldstone Report, which came out following Operation Cast Lead in the Gaza Strip last year, was partially a result of Israel’s failure to properly prepare the world for what would happen in the event of an Israeli incursion into the Gaza Strip.
This happened again with the flotilla to the Gaza Strip on May 31 and the navy’s boarding of the Mavi Marmara Turkish passenger ship, which ended with nine Turkish men dead after they attacked the IDF commandos.
Then, too, the IDF admitted that it should have, in advance of the operation, invested resources in preparing the public for the possibility that people would be killed.
This does not mean that a war with Hizbullah is around the corner – just that the IDF is preparing for one.
The chance of a war with Hizbullah this summer is low, according to the IDF’s assessment.
Hizbullah is scared of what Israel’s response would be, and concerned about the effect a new war would have on its standing within Lebanon.
