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.
JOEL 3:2 (WW3 OCCURS WHEN JERUSALEM IS DIVIDED)
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 (ISRAEL) and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.(JERUSALEM)(WW3 STARTS BECAUSE JERUSALEM IS DIVIDED AND ISRAELIS UPROOTED FROM THEIR GOD GIVIN LAND BRINGS 3 DEAD BILLION IN WW3)
ZECHARIAH 14:12-13
12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.(1/2-3 BILLION DIE IN WW3)
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.

Envoys from the Palestinian Authority on Thursday unveiled the
resolution they hope will give them observer membership at the United
Nations but held back from setting a date for a vote, AFP reported.Arab League foreign ministers are to discuss the resolution next week, diplomats told AFP.The PA’s mission to the United Nations sent a letter to UN members
with its proposed resolution, saying it would be put to the 193 member
UN General Assembly "at a date to be announced in the near future."The resolution would call on the assembly to accord observe
membership and urge the 15-nation UN Security Council to "consider
favorably" an application for
full membership made last year by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.The United
States has blocked the full membership bid, threatening to
use a veto at the Security Council, which must approve any full
application. It cannot hold up any bid for observer membership at the
General Assembly.
The PA’s application is certain to be passed at the General Assembly but the question would be how big a majority it would get if the United States opposes the resolution.Arab League foreign ministers are to meet on November 12-13 and could set a date for a vote if Abbas agrees, UN diplomats said, according to AFP.
The draft resolution "reaffirms the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination" on the basis of Israeli-Arab borders before the 1967 Six Day War.The resolution highlights "the urgent need for the resumption and acceleration of negotiations" between the two sides to settle the questions of refugees, Jerusalem, settlements, borders, security, water and prisoners.Abbas formally announced in September that the PA would ask the General Assembly to grant it "super-observer" status that could give it access to UN institutions and agencies.Kol Yisrael radio reported on Thursday night that the PA will likely table the resolution on November 29.Channel 10 News reported earlier this week that Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has threatened that if the PA goes ahead with its unilateral statehood bid he “will work to ensure the PA will collapse.”Lieberman reportedly stressed that a unilateral statehood bid by the PA will "put an end to the chances to resume peace negotiations."Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that he remains ready to sit down for final status talks with the PA leader."Only in direct negotiations will it be possible to clarify what the true positions are. Generally, I can say that if Abu Mazen is really serious and intends to advance peace, as far as I am concerned, we can sit together immediately. Jerusalem and Ramallah are only seven minutes apart; I am ready to start negotiations today,” Netanyahu said bluntly.
"I will take this opportunity to again call on President Abbas to return to the negotiating table without preconditions, because peace may be advanced only around the negotiating table and not via unilateral decisions in the United Nations General Assembly, which will only push peace further away and will only lead to instability.”The Obama administration has indicated that it opposes the PA’s unilateral move and said it would “make the case” at the UN for Israeli- PA talks when Abbas submits his bid.

Finance minister threatens to withhold tax revenues if Palestinians make UN statehood bid
Yuval Steinitz points at success of freezing assets in preventing similar measure last year
November 10, 2012, 4:51 pm
0-THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
Israel will withhold
transferring tax revenues to the Palestinian Authority if President
Mahmoud Abbas presses forward with a United Nations statehood bid,
Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz warned on Saturday.
Stenitz said that Israel would not collect
taxes on the Palestinians’ behalf, nor deliver the moneys to the PA, nor
assist Ramallah in economic matters if the Palestinians insist on
seeking nonmember observer state status at the UN.Under the current economic agreements between
Israel and the PA, Israel collects customs, border and some income taxes
on behalf of the Palestinians and transfers the sums to Ramallah on a
monthly basis.The finance minister noted that the
Palestinians backed down from a unilateral UN bid last year after Israel
blocked the transfer of Palestinian tax funds to the PA.Abbas was expected to submit a resolution to
the UN General Assembly this month requesting nonmember state status for
the Palestinians, but a senior Palestinian official indicated Friday that Abbas may be willing to postpone the move if
the US were to offer a “clear objective” for negotiations. According to
the official, the objective would have to be a Palestinian state based
on 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.Palestinian sources indicated Saturday that Abbas was “seriously
considering” pushing back a UN bid, and that the stated reason for a
possible postponement – from November to the end of January – is
that reelected US President Barack Obama needs time to organize a
political agenda for the second term of his administration.
Peres: I Intend to Complete My Term
President
Shimon Peres denies reports that he is planning to run in the next
Knesset elections as head of Israel’s center-left bloc.By Elad Benari, Canada First Publish: 11/9/2012, 9:11 PM-INN
President Shimon Peres-Flash 90
President Shimon Peres denied on Friday recent media reports that he is planning to end his term early and run
in the next Knesset elections as head of Israel’s center-left bloc.This
week it was reported that former Kadima chairwoman Tzipi Livni
has been pressuring Shimon Peres to head a center-left Knesset list in
the coming election. She reportedly told the 89-year-old president that
she would support him if he chooses to run as his number two.Peres has
also been under pressure
by other politicians to run. It has been suggested in previous weeks
that Peres might be the only candidate who can unite the fragmented
center-left bloc and beat Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu in the
January elections.However, on Friday morning as he was making his way en
route from
Moscow back to Israel, Peres denied the reports about his political
intentions and said he intends to complete his term as president in one
year and 10 months.President Peres rejected any idea of returning to
the Knesset and said, “All the reports are pure speculation.”On
Thursday, opposition head MK Shaul Mofaz (Kadima) hinted at an impending center-left political union to match the Likud-Yisrael Beytenu merger on the political right. Mofaz told an interviewer at Gordon College
in Haifa to expect political change.“Things will happen in the next two
and a half months,” he said. “These are things that aren’t ready
yet.”“The map is going to change,” he added. “It will happen very
quickly, close to the time of elections.”Mofaz was asked if he has
considered the possibility that if a left-wing political merger occurs, he may not stand at the head of the new party. Polls show that Kadima, the largest party in the current Knesset, may not make it into the next Knesset.“I take everything into account,” Mofaz replied.(Arutz Sheva’s North American Desk is keeping you updated until
