II Peter 3:9 – The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Acts 20:20,21 – And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, [21] Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 8:18-28 – For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. [19] 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. [24] For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? [25] But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. [26] Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. [27] And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. [28] And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Acts 2:19-21 – And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: [20] The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: [21] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Alert From The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.
Excerpt 1
George Jonas
(National Post-Canada)
The West was ready to sign a deal with Tehran’s nuclear ayatollahs in which they get billions in lifted sanctions, and in return we get a promise that they’ll develop their nukes more slowly. That’s the deal. We pay, they promise.
The reality is that nukes are proliferating not in peaceable kingdoms but in bellicose tyrannies, and the question is, when are we stopping them? Today, when it’s already too costly, or tomorrow, when it may also be too late?
Excerpt 2
Syrian War, Hizbullah Present New Set of Threats
Amos Harel
Syrian President Bashar Assad has repeatedly attempted to transfer advanced weaponry to Hizbullah despite Israel’s warnings (which, according to officials in Washington, Israel has enforced with at least six air strikes on Syria this year).
Moreover, thanks to its involvement in Syria’s war, Hizbullah has upgraded its capabilities, though it is thought to have suffered more than 250 fatalities and about 1,000 wounded in Syria.
Hizbullah is gaining experience in urban warfare and in launching offensives.
In the battle of Qusayr in June, Hizbullah operated Syrian tanks, used drones, made sophisticated use of intelligence, and conducted coordinated maneuvers at the company level (roughly 100-200 soldiers) and even higher
Excerpt 3
Alan M. Dershowitz
(Algemeiner)
The U.S. is leading the noble efforts to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough to prevent Iran from having the capacity to develop nuclear weapons. Yet the deal offered to Iran – to soften some sanctions in return for a promise by the mullahs to preserve the status quo with regard to their nuclear program – does not serve the niterest of peace.
The understandable concern, expressed by Israeli, French, and Saudi leaders, is that the Iranian leadership is playing for time – that they want to make insignificant concessions in exchange for significant reductions in the sanctions. These leaders, and many experienced nuclear and diplomatic experts, fear that a bad deal would allow the Iranians to inch closer to nuclear weapons capacity while strengthening their faltering economy.
Were Iran to use the current diplomatic efforts as a cover to buy time to make a preventive military attack unrealistic, this would indeed be our “Chamberlain moment,” a replication of the time when the idealistic but naive British prime minister made a bad deal with the Nazis in a desperate but futile effort to avoid deploying the military option against Hitler’s growing power.
To weaken the sanctions regime now, in exchange for a promise to maintain the status quo, would be bad diplomacy, poor negotiation and a show of weakness precisely when a show of strength is called for. The leadership of the pro-Israel community, both in the U.S. and Israel, have shown rare unity around the issue of not weakening the sanctions merely in exchange for the promise of a nuclear standstill from the Iranians.

Excerpt 4
We Must Not Capitulate to Iran over Its Nuclear Program
Con Coughlin
(Telegraph-UK)
In previous negotiations the Iranians have frequently indulged in delaying tactics, stringing out the talks so that Western negotiators are led to believe they are about to get a deal, when in fact they were just buying themselves more time. As every nuclear expert knows, there will come a point when Iran has enough enriched uranium that it can press ahead with building a nuclear weapon.
For all the encouraging noises being made by the Iranian delegation, there has been no let-up in Iran’s uranium enrichment activities. Thankfully it has been left to the French to demonstrate that not everyone taking part in the Geneva talks is gullible enough to accept the Iranian promises of good behavior at face value.
Rouhani is desperate to get the sanctions lifted. If the sanctions really are having an impact on Iran’s nuclear calculations, then all the more reason to keep them in place. If the world is to be a safer place, then the ultimate objective of the Geneva talks must be to force Iran to stop all the activities that could enable it to build nuclear weapons, rather than easing the sanctions and letting the ayatollahs off the hook.

Excerpt 5
John Kerry Is Mistaken about Israel’s Settlements
Alan Baker
(Israel Hayom)
Dear Secretary of State Kerry:
After listening to you declare repeatedly over the past weeks that “Israel’s settlements are illegitimate,” I respectfully wish to state, unequivocally, that you are mistaken and ill-advised, both in law and in fact.
Pursuant to the Oslo Accords, the “issue of settlements” is one of subjects to be negotiated in the permanent-status negotiations. Your statements serve to not only to prejudge this negotiating issue, but also to undermine the integrity of that agreement. By your repeating that Israel’s settlements are illegitimate, you are in fact buying into, and even fueling, the Palestinian propaganda narrative and exerting unfair pressure on Israel.
Moreover, your determination that Israel’s settlements are illegitimate cannot be legally substantiated. The oft-quoted prohibition on transferring population into occupied territory (Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention) was, according to the International Committee of the Red Cross’ own official commentary of that convention, drafted to prevent a repeat of the forced, mass transfer of populations carried out by the Nazis in World War II. It was never intended to apply to Israel’s settlement activity.
Attempts by the international community to attribute this article to Israel emanate from clear partisan motives, with which you and the U.S. are now identifying.
There is no requirement in any of the signed agreements between Israel and the Palestinians that Israel cease or freeze settlement activity. The opposite is in fact the case. The 1995 interim agreement enables each party to plan, zone and build in the areas under its respective control.
Israel‘s settlement policy neither prejudices the outcome of the negotiations nor does it involve displacement of local Palestinian residents from their private property.
