Speaker of Knesset calls on Israel to Reconquer Gaza from Hamas
July 29, 2020
Knesset Speaker Yariv Levin addressed the Knesset …
“15 years,” Levin began. “Fifteen years have passed since we stood in a long human chain from Gush Katif to Jerusalem. Holding hands in complete faith that the decision of the Israeli government then, could and should be reversed. In the complete belief that the pioneering vision of the thousands of settlers cannot and must not be cut short.”
“Never in the history of the State of Israel has there been such a blatant mobilization to polish away a move that remains an indelible black stain. In order to prepare for an expulsion, which was no “disengagement” between populations, but was only a disengagement from basic human values and historical rights over the homeland.”
“We saw then, whole systems that lost direction, lost their way, and, most importantly, failed in the moment of truth. A government that has, all at once, thrown people from their homes without housing solutions, without jobs, without a community framework, without assistance.”
“Media and journalists who, instead of being the watchdog of democracy, instead of shouting the deportees’ cry, instead of painting the real picture, turned themselves into a propaganda machine whose entire purpose was to blur the truth, hide and suffocate the deportees’ voices.”
“This was also the sad time of those who, in their finer days, stand up for the honor of the dead, but remained silent in the face of the removal of the graves of Jews, including victims of terrorist acts.”
“This was the hour when the justice system was fully exposed. The so-called super-constitutional principles, human rights, restraining orders, all of these were thrown aside at once in favor of preparing the political course of the expulsion, and everything was done quickly in order to end quickly, to ensure that the wrongful and anti-democratic theft was carried out.”
“The evacuation of Gush Katif and northern Samaria will be remembered as one of the greatest divisive moments in Israeli society.”
“It will also be remembered as the moment when the thousands of deportees fully fulfilled Menachem Begin’s historic injunction – there will never be a civil war.”
“We knew how to overcome the rift, we knew how to find the unifying element, and even in these complex days,, we must adhere to this path of unity and of transcending disagreement.”
“At the same time, we must remember the terrible tragedy of the evacuation of the settlements and their inhabitants. A tragedy that we must ensure never happens again.”
“Dear deportees from Gush Katif and northern Samaria, I want to strengthen you in the difficult day-to-day struggle to cope with the scars of deportation that will never heal.”
“I am convinced that one day we will return to rebuilding our homes and our destroyed communities. Because this land is ours.” …
Levin is a Likud Knesset member and opposes the creation of a Palestinian State. https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/155524/speaker-of-knesset-calls-on-israel-to-reconquer-gaza-from-hamas/
Here are some Jewish religious views about Gaza and the Palestinians:
An End-of-Days Guide to the Palestinians and Gaza
“And I will wipe out the inhabitants of Ashdod And the sceptered ruler of Ashkelon; And I will turn My hand against Ekron, And the Philistines shall perish to the last man —said Hashem.” Amos 1:8 (The Israel Bible™) …
Palestinians: Spiritual Roots in Israel’s Biblical Enemy
Rabbi Matityahu Glazerson, a Torah codes expert, believes that the modern day Palestinians have their spiritual roots in the Biblical Philistines.
“We can see this in the name they choose for themselves and we can also see this in their attraction for Gaza,” Rabbi Glazerson told Breaking Israel News.
He emphasized that not only was Gaza a military stronghold but it was also a major center for the Philistines’ idolatry and temple. “Their hatred for Israel is so great that it is clearly an ancient conflict and not just one from the last few decades. Their recent kite attacks, burning the fields in Israel, are precisely a desire of revenge for Samson burning the Philistine fields in a similar manner.” …
Rabbi Sudri noted that despite Israel’s clear military superiority, the Palestinians are succeeding in creating a challenge Israel cannot defeat.
“How can it be that Israel, with such a strong military, cannot cope with the Palestinians?,” the rabbi asked. “If there is a clear enemy, even a strong enemy, we can fight them. We cannot defeat them because the fight is on a spiritual level, the angel of one nation against the angel of another nation. Every nation has an angel but the Zohar explains that the Philistines do not have an angel.”
Rabbi Sudri referred to the Philistines as a “nation that is not a nation.” …
Rabbi Pinchas Winston, a prolific end-of-days author, believes the Palestinians are a prophesied wake-up call to motivate the Nation of Israel to focus on Messiah. To illustrate his point, he related a midrash (homiletic teaching) from the Talmud (Tractate Baba Batra 73b). …
Rabbi Winston cited Rabbi Yaakov Lorberbaum, the rabbi of Lissa Poland in the 1800’s, known as Rabbeinu Yaakov.
“Rabbeinu Yaakov taught that this peculiar story in the Talmud is actually an allegory of what will happen in the days before Messiah,” Rabbi Winston said. “He explained the Talmud as teaching that the Jews will return to our land but we will end up ruling over another nation. The other nation will appear weak and small but they will actually turn everything upside down.”
“If the ‘boat is ready’, if the Jews are ready for Messiah, everything will be fine and we will enter into the Messiah,” Rabbi Winston explained. “If the Jews are not ready, we will ‘drown from the problems this small nation will cause us.”
Rabbi Winston sees this allegory as a perfect description of the Palestinian Intifada. https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/108896/an-end-of-days-guide-to-the-palestinians-and-gaza/
Well, any who believe that Amos 1:8 will be fulfilled before Jesus returns are in error.
While it is basically correct to tie the Palestinians with the Philistines, to say that they are not a nation is not really correct.
Furthermore, the Bible show that those of Gaza will attain lands that are currently under control by the State of Israel.
The NKJV has the term “Gaza” 21 times and “Gazites” twice.
Bible prophecy tells of calamity coming to Gaza and other lands:
17 Then I took the cup from the Lord’s hand, and made all the nations drink, to whom the Lord had sent me: 18 Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day; 19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his princes, and all his people; 20 all the mixed multitude, all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the land of the Philistines (namely, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod); 21 Edom, Moab, and the people of Ammon; 22 all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the coastlands which are across the sea; 23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who are in the farthest corners; 24 all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the mixed multitude who dwell in the desert; 25 all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes; 26 all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth. Also the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
27 “Therefore you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Drink, be drunk, and vomit! Fall and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”‘ 28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: “You shall certainly drink! 29 For behold, I begin to bring calamity on the city which is called by My name, and should you be utterly unpunished? You shall not be unpunished, for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth,” says the Lord of hosts.’ (Jeremiah 25:17-29)
Many of the lands above are listed as supporters of the final King of the South (Daniel 11:40-43) and/or part of a confederation that will be destroyed that will involve Egypt (Ezekiel 30:3-8). Some of those lands, Ashkelon (located 50 kilometres south of Tel Aviv, and 13 kilometres north of the border with the Gaza Strip), Ekron (modern Tel Miqne, which is 35 kilometers west of Jerusalem), and Ashdod (located 32 kilometres south of Tel Aviv, 20 km north of Ashkelon, and 53 km west of Jerusalem.), are currently dominated by the nation of Israel. This indicates change coming to Israel, as well as Gaza/Palestine. Israel will not end up with Gaza (though, perhaps, it could temporarily). Israel will LOSE more land/cities to the Palestinians!
I would like to add that, biblical prophecy teaches that the Palestinians of Gaza and the West Bank will support confederations which will not end well in this age. They will, for a time, believe that they will be protected by a temporary ‘peace deal’ (Daniel 9:27) that will not end well (Daniel 11:11:31, 40-43) according to biblical, and even Islamic prophecy (see also The Arab and Islamic World In the Bible, History, and Prophecy), this will not end well for those in Gaza.
There will be changes coming–including war.
One day, Israel’s capital, Jerusalem will be attacked:
8 He removed the protection of Judah. You looked in that day to the armor of the House of the Forest; 9 You also saw the damage to the city of David, That it was great; And you gathered together the waters of the lower pool. (Isaiah 22:8-9)
One day, the nation of Israel will lose territory (for details, see the prophecies in the article Gaza and the Palestinians in Bible Prophecy).
Ultimately, and probably after conflict, a temporary peace deal will be put in place (cf. Daniel 9:27; see also The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27).
But this will not end as hoped by the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39; see also USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses) or Israel (cf. Daniel 11:31).
Despite certain Jewish and American hopes, steps are moving in this direction.
Things will go more towards the way of the Palestinians in time, but that will also not be optimal for them.
The only real solution for the region is for Jesus to come and straighten this world out (see also The Gospel of the Kingdom of God).

Evangelical support for Donald Trump’s Jerusalem policy BBC asked, “Why do US evangelicals support Trump’s Jerusalem policy?” BBC provided quotes from some believing it has to do with the ‘last days’ while others saying that is not the reason. Hal Lindsey’s book, ‘The Late Great Planet Earth’ is one of the sources pointed to. In this video, Dr. Thiel addresses scriptures related to Jerusalem as well as prophetic ones. He goes over the common ‘fig tree’ interpretation, belief about a ‘Third Temple,’ and statements about animal sacrifices.

Jerusalem, Donald Trump, and Prophecy On December 6, 2017, US President Donald Trump fulfilled a campaign promise related to the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. This brought anger, protests, and rockets from some Palestinians. It also brought condemnation from European allies–it has been claimed to be disruptive and even catastrophic. The Palestinian President (Mahmoud Abbas) said that this pronouncement eliminated the USA as being a fair mediator for a peace deal. Others have claimed that Donald Trump is an end time Cyrus and his pronouncement will lead to a Third Temple in Jerusalem. Is there ever going to be a peace deal? If so, will Europeans be part of it? Is Donald Trump a ‘Cyrus.’ Do the Jews require a Third Temple for sacrifices? Dr. Thiel answer those questions and more in this video.
