DANIEL 9:26-27
26 And after threescore and two weeks(62X7=434 YEARS+7X7=49 YEARS=TOTAL OF 69 WEEKS OR 483 YRS) shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary;(ROMAN LEADERS DESTROYED THE 2ND TEMPLE) and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.(THERE HAS TO BE 70 WEEKS OR 490 YRS TO FUFILL THE VISION AND PROPHECY OF DAN 9:24).(THE NEXT VERSE IS THAT 7 YR WEEK OR (70TH FINAL WEEK).

JERUSALEM DIVIDED
ZECHARIAH 12:1-5 King James Bible
1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.
3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
4 In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.
5 And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.
JOEL 3:2
2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
ZECHARIAH 14:1-9 King James Bible
1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark:
7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.
8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.
Prosor Working to Keep US From Having to Use Veto-UN envoy Ron Prosor hopes to build a bloc of 7 votes against the PA statehood bid to save the US from having to use its veto in the UNSC By Gavriel Queenann First Publish: 9/23/2011, 3:15 AM
Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Ron Prosor said Thursday he is working to create a bloc of seven votes against PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas' statehood bid in the Security Council on Friday.We're still trying to get a block of seven countries, Prosor told the Hebrew-language Walla! Prosor said he was working with US diplomats to create a bloc against the PA bid in order to render the promised US veto of Abbas' move moot, thereby saving Washington political capital.The purpose of building the bloc is to allow space for political maneuvering, Prosor explained.For PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas' statehood gambit to pass it must gain nine affirmative votes in the 15-member Security Council with no permanent members exercising their veto.Israel only needs seven votes in the council to defeat the measure without the US exercising its veto because Nigeria has said it will abstain.Several Security Council members, notably veto-wielding England and France, have not announced their votes hoping Abbas can be persuaded to drop his bid and return to negotiations as the clock runs out.
According to Prosor, the Security Council is not expected to vote on Abbas' resolution until Friday afternoon.After all of the speeches, Abu Mazen must submit his request to the Security Council, Prosor explained.I hope I have enough time to build the bloc and put the United Nations back on the path of direct negotiations. The Palestinians need to stop speech making, Prosor told Arutz Sheva during an interview on Thursday, and come back to peace making.
Ahmadinejad: Zionism Sacred to West-Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad repeated well-worn themes at the UN such as Holocaust denial, imperialism, lambasting Israel.By Gavriel Queenann First Publish: 9/22/2011, 10:27 PM
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday launched into his customary tirade against Israel and the West at the United Nations.Announcing he planned to analyze the current situation from a different angle,Ahmadinejad immediately lambasted Israel saying the Zionist regime imposes terror on the Palestinian people.Ahmadinejad also cast aspersion on the Holocaust and hinted the September 9/11 attacks occurred under dubious circumstances as well.The world, Ahmadinejad mused, must wonder, if after six decades the Holocaust is still used as an excuse to pay ransom to the Zionists… what will happen if the same amount of money was allocated to poor nations? He then accused the United States and its allies of threatening anyone who questions the Holocaust and the events of 9/11 with military actions… and treating Zionism as sacred.In addition, Ahmadinejad questioned why U.S. troops did not take Osama bin Laden alive and put him on trial.The statement prompted the American and French ambassadors – followed by dozens of other delegates – to leave the Assembly Hall.Ahmadinejad's trademark surreal rhetoric and nutty analysis of world events has long been seeped with Holocaust denial and 9/11 conspiracy theories.His government has also underwritten Holocaust denial conferences and studies.Ahmadinejad's hateful remarks outraged the American diplomats, who walked out during the speech:

Erdogan Slams Israel in UN: Israel’s Leaders Bury Peace-Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan takes advantage of his speech at the UN General Assembly to once again attack Israel.By Elad Benari First Publish: 9/23/2011, 1:11 AM
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan took advantage of his speech at the UN General Assembly on Thursday to attack Israel, something he has made a habit of doing in recent months.Israel did not comply with 89 UN resolutions and the UN is not helping to put an end to tragedy of the Palestinians, Channel 10 News quoted Erdogan as saying.We cannot leave this issue unresolved - the international community must act quickly and heal this wound, Erdogan added, stressing that the international community must put pressure on Israel and agree to the Palestinian Authority’s request for recognition of an independent state.He blamed the Netanyahu government for the current political deadlock, saying, Those who are in power in Israel do not build peace but bury peace. Those who are in power in Israel must understand that true security comes with a genuine peace. There is nothing that can replace peace.Erdogan referred to his country’s diplomatic row with Israel over the 2010 flotilla and once again demanded that Israel apologize for the deaths of nine Turkish nationals on the Mavi Marmara.
Israel must apologize, pay compensation, and remove the blockade on Gaza, Erodgan was quoted as saying, making it clear once again that these are his terms for normalizing relations with Israel.He emphasized, however, that Turkey has no problem with the Israeli people.Turkey downgraded its relations with Israel earlier this month, after the UN’s Palmer Report on the flotilla concluded that Israel faces a real threat to its security from militant groups in Gaza and determined that Israel’s naval blockade on the region was imposed as a legitimate security measure.
Israel has reiterated that it has no intention of apologizing for the deaths of the nine IHH terrorists who died when IDF soldiers boarded the Mavi Marmara and were attacked by the so-called peace activists on board.
Chief of Staff: PA Containing Demos-Lt. Gen. Gantz says: PA and its agencies are working to contain September events, voices hope this will continue.By Gil Ronen First Publish: 9/23/2011, 12:13 AM
Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz, IDF Chief of Staff, said Thursday that the Palestinian Authority (PA) has been preventing September events from spilling out of the territory it controls.Until now, the PA and its agencies have been working to contain the events within the Palestinian cities and I hope this continues in the coming days, Gantz said. I have given instructions to deploy the forces on the ground and be on alert in view of the challenges of the moment,he said. Besides instruction, training and equipping the forces with the right means – there is no substitute for the presence of mind and determination of our commanders and to their presence at the front, leading the forces.He was speaking at a memorial ceremony for fallen soldiers from the Armored Corps.
France Offers Compromise on PA's Statehood Bid-French President Nicolas Sarkozy suggests: The PA will upgrade it status in the UN and we'll offer peace solutions within a year.By Elad Benari First Publish: 9/22/2011, 6:12 AM
French President Nicolas Sarkozy suggested on Wednesday that the United Nations admit Palestine as a non-member state and upgrade its status to simple observer while opposing the Palestinian Authority’s bid for full membership.Sarkozy made the suggestion during a speech to the UN General Assembly, in which he also called for one year to reach a definitive agreement between Israel and the PA, AFP reported.
Sarkozy’s suggestion is aimed to avoid a showdown on Friday, when PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas plans to present his unilateral statehood bid to the UN. His suggestion would be a middle ground between Abbas’ bid the U.S. determination to block the effort by using its veto power.Each of us knows that Palestine cannot immediately obtain full and complete recognition of the status of United Nations member state, AFP quoted Sarkozy as saying. The first reason for this is the lack of trust between the main parties.He added, But who could doubt that a veto at the Security Council risks engendering a cycle of violence in the Middle East? Must we therefore exclude an intermediate stage? Why not envisage offering Palestine the status of United Nations observer state? This would be an important step forward.
Under UN rules, noted AFP, non-member status would require only a straight majority in the General Assembly where no veto is possible. Such a move would give the PA access to international organizations such as the World Health Organization and perhaps the International Criminal Court.According to the report, Sarkozy also called for greater involvement of the international community in the peace process, suggesting the process led by the United States was leading nowhere.Let us stop believing that a single country or a small group of countries can resolve so complex a problem, Sarkozy said. Too many crucial players have been sidelined for our efforts to succeed. After so many failures, who still believes that the peace process can succeed without Europe? Who still believes that it can succeed without the involvement of all the permanent members of the Security Council? Who still believes that it can succeed without the involvement of the Arab states that have already chosen peace? As part of his compromise, he offered a timeline to restart negotiations: One month to resume discussion, six months to find an agreement on borders and security; and one year to reach a definitive agreement, Sarkozy was quoted as saying.A spokesman for Abbas later told the PA-based Ma’an news agency Abbas would study Sarkozy’s proposals, not guaranteeing that he would agree.
Op-Ed: Throwing Peace Under Abbas
Published: Thursday, September 22, 2011 8:30 AM
The writer has strong words for Abbas, the PA and all those who want to see an end to Israel - which he suggests that they take to heart.Gil Ronen-This is really all ridiculous. We are playing a game here, are we not? The Palestinian Authority. Peace talks.Blah blah blah, as simultaneously, PA head Mahmoud Abbas uses his Arabic television and radio stations to whip up hatred and encourage his minions to kill and maim Jews of all ages and both sexes.Two teenaged youths hear this incitement and enter a home in a Jewish community. They use knives to slaughter two parents, two children and a baby in their sleep. They do not express remorse, only regret that they didn't kill all the family's children.Who killed the Fogels? It was you, Mr. Abbas.Nu, as we say here in Israel. Nu – enough of this game. You don’t want a state. You want us dead.Our Talmudic sages tell us clearly and simply what to do in a case where someone approaches us and wants us dead. Kill him first, they say, in plain Hebrew. And so does common sense, by the way.
Arabs, Iranians, and all other kinds of Muslims who come out and say they want us dead, should expect nothing else in return. From the sky, from the sea, by land – when you least expect it. You should know that the IDF is going to get you.It may take a year or a decade or two decades. But what you wish upon us will be visited upon you a hundredfold. Because that is who we are. We are not losers. We are winners.We came back to our ancestral homeland after centuries upon centuries of wandering and unspeakable strife. We came back, against all odds, after the nations of the world saw us as no more than dead men walking, a remnant doomed to eternal perambulation. They even named a plant for us wandering Jews.We came back, not in order to be bled to death by rabble. And rabble you are, whether you number in the millions or the tens of millions or the hundreds of millions. Nothing but rabble. Nothing positive has come from your culture to bless the world in hundreds of years. No invention, no morality, no literature, hardly any form of art worth speaking of.
You are good for one thing: blood and hate speech and fear-mongering. You have gone as low as any fighting nation can go, and then took it lower. You fire at babies and then cower under hospitals. You incinerate thousands inside flaming buildings and hoot for joy. You use video cameras designed by Jews to tape yourselves beheading Jews.You have a word in Arabic – aib. It means shame. Aib upon you, Muslims the world over. Do not think we fear you. We are back and if this neighborhood isn’t big enough for the two of us, you're the ones who will have to go.
Nobel Laureate Aumann: Palestine is the Jewish National Home-Noble Laureate Prof. Yisrael Aumann states historical facts: Palestine is Israel, and there was always a Jewish presence in Israel.By Elad Benari First Publish: 9/22/2011, 3:15 AM
Professor Yisrael Aumann, Nobel Laureate and noted American-Israeli mathematician and game theorist, said on Wednesday that one of the biggest problems of the Israeli right is that it has adopted the misguided terminology which says that Arabs are Palestinians.Up until the Balfour Declaration in 1918 there was no [Arab] Palestine, he pointed out in a conversation with Arutz Sheva. The Balfour Declaration clearly states that Palestine is to be called the Jewish national home. Back then, one side of the coins read Palestine and the other side read Land of Israel.Israel is the same as Palestine, added Aumann. My wife has Palestinian documents. The Arabs say that Haifa and Tel Aviv are part of Palestine and they’re right because this is indeed the land of Israel. We are both the Jews as well as the Palestinians. Referring to the Arabs as Palestinians is the root of our mistake. Therefore, it’s important to say that we are the Palestinians and they are Arabs.Speaking from the point of view of game theory, Aumann said that it would be impossible to prevent the Palestinian Authority leadership from requesting statehood at the United Nations on Friday.Problems cannot be solved overnight, both in the economy as well as in international relations, he said.We should always look ahead and see how during a conflict situation we give incentives to the other side to do things that are good for both sides. When you are in a game of chess and the other side is about to take your queen, it’s too late to do something. In our case today, it’s too late to prevent the PA from submitting a request to the UN.Aumann said Israel has made mistakes in the past which are now very difficult to correct.
The biggest mistake we made in the past decade was the expulsion of Jews from Gush Katif, he said. It signaled weakness to the other side, that we really do not want to stay here and are not interested in this area. We looked weak even though we are strong and that’s what led to the violent confrontation during Operation Cast Lead. The expulsion has brought us to where we are today.Aumann stated that the only way Israel’s government can win the war is to adhere to the historic Jewish right to the land of Israel.Since the destruction of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem there was a Jewish presence in Israel, long before Islam came here, he said.The world was not created in 1967. It was created long before that and until 1948 there was a Jewish majority in Jerusalem. In 1948 we were expelled from Judea and Samaria, Gush Etzion, Kfar Darom and the Gaza Strip. We came back after 19 years, but not as conquerors. We returned.Jewish presence in Israel lasted for 4,000 consecutive years, with the exception of 19 years between and 1948 and 1967 and another 90 years during the Crusades, added Aumann. We should stop talking about the need for defensible borders. It’s not a matter of security but of belonging. If we do not belong here we do not have the right to security. Therefore we have to emphasize first of all our belonging to the land of Israel, and convince ourselves of that before trying to persuade others.Professor Yisrael Aumann is known for his view that the principles of game theory can be successfully applied to the peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
Op-Ed: Would a Palestinian State Ever Have Worked?
Published: Thursday, September 22, 2011 12:19 PM
Without dismantling any Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria, and without an incommunicado relationship with Hamas,, a PA declaration of statehood would have been the widest shift yet towards peace in the region.Scott Krane-Would a Palestinian State ever have worked? The answer is yes. It would have worked in 1947. And it probably could have worked in 2011. That is, before the month of May.Had the Palestinian Authority's unilateral statehood bid gone to the United Nations before the fall of the Mubarak regime in Egypt, I would have been in favor of it. I would have gone so far as to have made the argument that those who were most outspoken, most vehemently opposed were – perhaps subconsciously – simply prolonging the pain for the Jews and, per usual, not concerned with the Palestinian interest at all.What is the motivation for leftist governments telling the PLO no? The motivation is a crooked war of attrition on the Jewish State.Israel, at war against the abstract Arab conglomerate in Judea and Samaria, is weaker. Everyone knows this.If President Obama is successful in preventing a Palestinian state, the non-Jewish areas of Judea and Samaria, where millions of Palestinians live, will have to remain under close watch by the Israeli military. With a slight shift of focus, Israel is the bad boy, the new South Africa, and negative attention pointed at the Star of David flag will absorb what might have incriminated actions by the U.S. military and NATO who have ignored genocide in Syria and devastated citizens in Libya and elsewhere with drones.
The other voice crying: Abbas go back to Ramallah and sit down! is Jordan.The United Arab Emirates newspaper al-Bayan reported last week that Jordan's top national interests will be in danger if the Palestinian Authority declares statehood unilaterally – especially in everything related to the issue of refugees, water, Jerusalem, and the borders…Palestinian Arabs make up some 60 percent of Jordan's population, many of whom hold special refugee status, living below the social justice offered to the rest of the Hashmonean population.The former country, the United States of America, under President Obama, tells an AIPAC meeting that Jerusalem must remain undivided, must remain the capitol of a Jewish state; however, has refused to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv, purely out of spite.
The latter country, Jordan, does not recognize the geographical majority of the Jewish State; would stab Israel in the back given the chance, and of course benefits from the West Bank being under occupation.Before Hamas reconciled with Fatah in Cairo in May – after a long-painful schism, known as the Wakseh – I might have said that Mahmoud Abbas and his UN statehood bid is actually a move in the right direction. The Palestinian Authority, sans Hamas, in the non-Jewish populated West Bank has political factions with foreign and domestic recognition. They've got a treasury, banks, colleges, schools and hospitals. They have a president and a Prime-Minister. They have a military who is trained by the U.S. military. The Palestinians even have a Euro-league soccer team. This could have been the state of Palestine.
Without the dismantling of Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria, and an incommunicado relationship with Hamas, out of respect for Israel and the West, a Palestinian declaration of statehood would have been the widest shift yet towards peace in the region.A Palestinian state under a UN aegis would have resembled the founding of the Jewish State in 1947. The situation would have resembled the original partition, under the United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181. Two states for two peoples. And what is wrong with that? However, letting Hamas run amuck, in Fatah territory and Abbas' recent rhetoric about no Jews in a Palestinian State and of course a renewed relationship with Hamas (who are at war among themselves concerning whether leadership should be abroad or domestic), which is already beginning to crumble anyway, was the death kiss.So it is back to square one; and the PLO has a cold winter ahead in the world forum.
