Israel Feeling Middle East & International Pressure to Make Peace Deal Quickly

Jerusalem

Some believe that Israel is feeling even more pressure to make a peace deal:

In Israel, Time for Peace Offer May Run Out

New York Times – April 2, 2011 excerpt…

JERUSALEM — With revolutionary fervor sweeping the Middle East, Israel is under mounting pressure to make a far-reaching offer to the Palestinians or face a United Nations vote welcoming the State of Palestine as a member whose territory includes all of the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem.

The Palestinian Authority has been steadily building support for such a resolution in September, a move that could place Israel into a diplomatic vise.

“Whatever we put forward has to be grounded in security arrangements because of what is going on regionally,” said Zalman Shoval, one of a handful of Netanyahu aides drawing up the Israeli proposal which may be delivered as a speech to the United States Congress in May. “We are facing the rebirth of the eastern front as Iran grows strong. We have to secure the Jordan Valley. And no Israeli government is going to move tens of thousands of Israelis from their homes quickly.” http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/03/world/middleeast/03mideast.html

Many events are happening in the Middle East. And they are setting the stage for the rising up a the final King of the South that Daniel wrote about (Daniel 11:27;40). Daniel 11:27 and Psalm 83:1-8 suggest that this leader will make some deals with the King of the North. Bible prophecy suggests a seven-year peace deal will be confirmed by a European leader (for scriptural details, please see Can the Great Tribulation Begin in 2011, 2012, or 2013?)

The final King of the North, who appears to be a prince in Daniel 9:26-27, would likely involve the King of the South in a temporary peace deal. Islamic prophecy, FWIW, is also supportive of this concept.

Israel could possibly feel forced into making a peace deal as soon as this Fall, but unless there is a major military escalation (possibly involving Iran), it would seem the September 2012 may be more likely for any such deal to be confirmed. It remains my view that wars are normally required for the involved sides to agree to a peace deal. But, as the prophesied deal is only a temporary one, we will see.

As Jesus said,

35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming–in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning– 36 lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! (Mark 13:35-37)

And the goings on in Israel and the Middle East are certainly areas that He was referring to (cf. Mark 13:14).

The Bible shows that the USA and Israel will not have too long to survive after the final King of the South will make a deadly deal with the coming King of the North (Daniel 11:27; Psalm 83:1-8)–a deal to cut the USA, Israel, and their Anglo-allies off from being a nation (Psalm 83:3-4; Daniel 11:39). So despite any peace deal, since the Bible indicates that both the kings of the North and South make deals under false pretenses (Daniel 11:27), Israel, etc. will have their days numbered.

Prophetic events continue to line up.
