Will Iran’s Plan Of Tanking The Global Economy Cause The US To Pull Back?

Iran says it is now engaged in a “full-scale war” with the United States. Iranian President Mahmoud Pezeshkian, who is supposedly one of the more “moderate” figures among Iran's fanatical jihadist leadership, made the remarks earlier today, and judging by events that unfolded over the weekend, the regime clearly wants to escalate. They want to tank the global economy and drive up oil and gas prices, which they believe would then force the US to stand down.

If we are going to follow a chronological order of events that pertains to the last of the last days, we must begin with the regathering of the Jews into their land and the rebirth of the nation Israel. Jesus said, "Now learn this parable from the fig tree: 'When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place."

Anti-Semitism

A Winning Political Strategy?: JD Vance Opts To Appease Dangerous Anti-Israel Conspiracies

As antisemitism ingrains itself deeper into the Democrat Party, and many young republicans follow behind, taken captive by the conspiracies of Tucker Carlson, Candice Owens, and others, recent statements by Vice President JD Vance have shown that he is more than willing to feed into the trend. On an episode this week of the “Joe Rogan Experience,” Vance seemed eager to brand himself as the “reasonable moderate” voice, repeatedly calling Israel an ally while simultaneously proping up outlandish theories directed against the Jewish State.

Germany’s Upper House Backs Bill Criminalizing Denial Of Israel’s Right To Exist

Germany’s Bundesrat, the upper house of parliament, has approved legislation that would criminalize the public denial of Israel’s right to exist, amid a sharp rise in antisemitic incidents since the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on Israel. The bill, introduced by the western state of Hesse, now moves to the Bundestag, the lower house, where lawmakers are expected to consider it after the summer recess.

Crafting A False Narrative: The Accusation Of Israeli ‘Occupation’ Is Based On A Deceitful Premise

In the 1960s, after Yasir Arafat was placed in the Middle East as the leader of the newly formed PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization), propaganda started to spread across the region and soon after, around the globe. Ignoring a long geopolitical history of colonization mostly out of France and Great Britain, the world started to focus on Israel's "colonization of Palestinian land." It would take time for that weed to take root, but eventually it led to further accusations of "occupation." So, what is occupation exactly?

Patience Has Run Out: Iran’s Regime Showed Its True Face And Made Clear That It Has No Interest In Peace

The Memorandum of Understanding that was signed between the US and Iran last month is clearly out the window at this point. In response to repeated Iranian attacks on shipping, the US has carried out massive airstrikes against Iran for several nights in a row. Will the apocalyptic Iranian death cult get the memo and change its ways as a result? Highly unlikely. Iran is back to its old tricks, reportedly firing missiles and drones at Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, and even its only two allies in the entire region, Oman and Qatar. The regime has not fired upon Israel yet in this latest round of hostilities. The Arab nations may not respond, but Iran knows that Israel will—and with overwhelming force.

Huckabee: Americans Fail To Grasp The Threat Of Iran… But We Are Foolish To Ignore Them

Perkins attributed the drift in the church away from Israel to “biblical illiteracy.” Huckabee agreed, reminding viewers that standing with Israel is “scriptural.” “I mean, I could give you a lot of geopolitical reasons. I could give you humanitarian reasons. I could give you historic reasons. I could give you economic reasons. And all of those are important, and all of them should weigh in,” the ambassador emphasized. “But the ultimate reason for evangelicals is because we’re people of the book.”

GOP Rep Says Party Must Deal With Anti-Israel ‘Cancer’ Or Suffer Consequences

A recent proposed amendment by an outgoing Republican congressman to cut off U.S. aid to Israel is disappointing but not surprising, Rep. Randy Fine (R-Florida) said on “Washington Watch” on Friday.

Arabian Peninsula At War As Saudi Arabia And Houthis Exchange Attacks

The long-simmering war on the Arabian Peninsula erupted again Monday as Saudi forces struck Yemen’s Houthi-controlled capital and the Iranian-backed rebels answered within hours with ballistic missiles and drones aimed at southern Saudi Arabia.

United Nations ‘Finally States The Obvious,’ Acknowledging Hamas-Linked Interference With Humanitarian Aid in Gaza

The statement marks a significant acknowledgment by the United Nations after years of disputes over Israeli claims that Hamas and other armed groups were interfering with humanitarian aid in Gaza. “The U.N. at last states the obvious on systemic Hamas theft and diversion of aid in Gaza,” a senior U.S. official told the Jewish News Syndicate. The official said investigators from the inspector general’s office at the U.S. Agency for International Development had repeatedly documented Hamas interference with aid deliveries during the past two years.

Concessions and Compromise: There Is No Benefit To Negotiating With The Devil

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's funeral was replete with calls of “death to America,” “death to Israel,” and direct calls for the revenge killing of Donald Trump. Israel warned the United States of a fresh plot to assassinate the President, with US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee later confirming the ally’s intelligence. The concrete nature of the threat led Trump to suddenly ditch the new Air Force One plane—gifted by Qatar—on his way back from Turkey, and issue a warning to Iran that a list of “instructions” has been given, should the regime succeed in plots to kill him. What was gained from compromise with the enemy?

Demonizing The Jewish State: Why Australia’s Attempts To Tackle Antisemitism Are Falling Disturbingly Short

Many attempt to mask their antisemitism by claiming that anti-Zionism is merely impassioned criticism of a nation that just happens to be Jewish. By claiming Zionism is a “modern colonial ideology” they attempt to legitimise Palestinian ownership of the land at the expense of Jewish self-determination in the ancestral Jewish homeland. The simple equation in the anti-Zionist mind is that if Zionism is indeed colonial, then the State of Israel is illegitimate. But what most people refuse to accept is that the Jewish people do not just have a legal and historical right to the land, they have a biblical claim to it as their national homeland as well.

Foreign-Funded NGO Network Driving Britain’s Anti-Israel Protests

The massive anti-Israel protest movement that swept Britain after Hamas’ October 7 attack has been driven largely by a coordinated and internationally financed network of activist organizations, according to a major new report presented Wednesday at the House of Lords. The 129-page NGO Monitor investigation mapped 40 organizations involved in post-October 7 demonstrations and mobilization campaigns across the United Kingdom. Researchers concluded that roughly 80% of the protests were organized by NGOs rather than emerging spontaneously from grassroots activists. The report, titled Imported Influence, found that at least 11 of the organizations had alleged links to extremist groups or officials who had met or cooperated with figures connected to Iran, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, or the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Hunt For Eichmann: Israel’s Daring Mission To Capture A Man With The Blood Of Millions On His Hands

The plan to abduct Eichmann, dubbed Operation Finale, was a complex mission involving Mossad agents and a civilian physician who entered Argentina during its 150th anniversary celebration of independence from Spain. The timing was crucial, as Israel’s airline El Al did not normally fly to South America, but a government delegation provided cover for the operation. “Dead or alive,” Prime Minister David Ben Gurion told Harel before he left on the mission, “just bring Eichmann back with you. … Preferably alive. It would be very important, morally, for the young generations of Israel.”

The Disturbing Numbers Behind America’s Growing Shift Away From Israel

Historically, evangelical Christians have been Israel’s strongest and most reliable supporters. That support has been rooted less in politics than in biblical conviction – beliefs about God’s covenant with Israel, biblical prophecy, and the Jewish roots of Christianity. While support for Israel has steadily eroded among Democrats, younger Americans, and religiously unaffiliated voters, evangelical Christians largely held the line. However, new polling suggests the broader cultural tide is becoming so powerful that even the evangelical movement may not be immune much longer.

God’s Faithfulness Is Showcased Through The Miraculous Existance Of The Modern State Of Israel

The establishing of modern Israel is astounding in itself, but the fact that the country is surviving and thriving for 65 years in the middle of a sea of enemies is further testimony to God’s faithfulness to His promise, “He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep” (Ps. 121:4). In these events, God is setting the stage for the events of the end-times and His people’s final restoration to the Promised Land.

An Old Method Of Anti-Jewish Propaganda: Dismantling The Big Lie Of Israeli ‘Colonization’

This accusation of colonization goes back to the 1960s, when Yasser Arafat was set up in the Middle East region by the former USSR to destabilize that very region. The Merriam-Webster definition for colonization is either A: "The establishing of a colony, subjugation of a people or area especially as an extension of state," or B: Migration to and settlement in an inhabited or uninhabited area." It is interesting to note that both French and British empires have colonized large sections of the planet over time without anyone–except possibly for the people being colonized–blinking an eye. Israel colonizes, and the whole world is up in arms! But is Israel truly colonizing?

Bent On Destruction: The Iranian Regime Says It Has ‘No Choice But To Build A Nuclear Bomb’

"If you (America) make the mistake of attacking us with a nuclear weapon, we have to show them that we will," Iranian economist Muhammad-Reza Yazdizadeh stated. "Talking about the range of our missiles is a joke. If we are hit, we will attack in Washington. They know that we have the missile range to do this, and we need to show them that we have the nuclear capability as well. At the very least, we can launch a dirty bomb against them."

Why Are Australian Healthcare Workers Refusing To Oppose Antisemitism?

On 17 June 2026, Ahpra released a statement adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. Although it should not be a point of contention for a healthcare regulator to adopt a firm position on antisemitism, the move has sparked furious backlash from doctors, health workers and civil liberties groups who claim that adopting the antisemitism definition limits their ability to criticise Israel. Anti-Zionists often nuance their opposition to Israel by claiming it has nothing to do with antisemitism. But it does. It is simply the modern adaptation of it.

Antisemitism And Vitriol For Israel: One Of The Most Distinguishing Signs Of Our Time

The steadily intensifying antisemitism of our day points to the reality of the rapidly approaching Tribulation period. It’s one of the more distinguishing signs of our time because it aligns with so many prophecies that predict hatred for Israel and the Jews during the last days. In Zechariah 8:13, the Lord foretold what we see today along with His promise to dramatically reverse the fortunes of the Jewish people: "And as you have been a byword of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong.”

Israel’s Armenian Genocide Recognition Sparks Turkish Anger Ahead Of NATO Summit

Turkey has condemned Israel for recognizing the Armenian Genocide, the systematic killing of some 1.5 million Armenian Christians by the Ottoman Empire during World War I, ahead of hosting next week’s NATO summit. The dispute comes as Turkey faces renewed scrutiny over its human rights record and an ongoing crackdown on opposition politicians and independent media. Israel’s government recently approved a resolution recognizing the Armenian Genocide, a move that still requires parliamentary approval before becoming official policy but has already triggered sharp condemnation from Ankara.

God’s Timeline Directing Global Politics: The US-Iran MoU And The Perplexing Shift Of American Foreign Policy

That being said, this whole MoU that’s been agreed upon between the US and Iran is a complete balagan! How does a nearly defeated enemy end up in a better position than when it first went to war? It’s absurd. It’s like the Allies making it to Berlin in 1945 but stopping before a final victory, then signing an agreement that leaves the Nazi party in power. Make it make sense! I have been greatly frustrated as I’ve watched what appears to be the capitulation of the United States to Iran. But in the grand scheme, what I feel doesn’t really matter. We don’t have to like everything that we see, because we know that in many cases it has to happen.

Instead Of Telling Israel To ‘Wake Up And Smell The Reality’ With The Iran Deal, JD Vance Needs To Take His Own Advice

Much attention is focused on the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which is intended to lead to a formal agreement with Iran over the next 60 days. After Israel voiced their rightful concerns, Vice President JD Vance lashed out at the Jewish State, calling members of Netanyahu’s cabinet to “wake up and smell the reality of the situation.”

Iran Arrests More Than 3,000 Citizens Accused Of Cooperating With Israel

But human rights groups say the regime is using the charge of espionage as a weapon against critics, protesters, dissidents, and ordinary citizens caught in the machinery of the Islamic Republic’s security state. Rights groups have also accused Iranian authorities of using pressure, intimidation, and torture to extract false confessions, a long-standing practice in politically sensitive cases before Iran’s Revolutionary Courts.

It Doesn’t Take A Brain Surgeon To See Through Iran’s Strategy In Lebanon… So Why Is America Putting Up With It?

Israel has pounded Hezbollah and left it in tatters. Iran knows that Hezbollah is in very big trouble and badly wants to save the crown jewel of its proxy network. The regime not only demanded to have Lebanon included in the Memorandum of Understanding that was signed by President Trump last week, but also ordered Hezbollah to continue attacking Israel. The Jewish State gets the blame when it responds, and the U.S. then calls for Israeli restraint. Do you see how this works?

The Signs Of The Coming Of The Tribulation Temple

Since 1967, when Israel regained control of the Temple Mount, and 1987, when the Temple Movement began preparations to rebuild the Jewish Temple, steady progress has been made. The Temple Institute and Temple Mount Faithful organizations in Israel have manufactured ritually approved utensils for Temple service and trained men whom they believe descend from the priestly and Levitical lines to be both priests (kohanim) and Levites to perform the sacred duties of Temple service—including renewing the sacrificial system.

‘Feeding A Crocodile’: No Good Comes Out Of The Politics Of Appeasement

Even before WWII, Churchill warned Britain and many European countries against appeasement with Germany. He saw no good coming out of appeasement. His famous quote still resonates with us today: "An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last." President Trump started this war acting like a 21st-century American Winston Churchill, leading the West into what we all thought would result in a regime change for Iran. It looked like the end of 47 years of Islamic terror, abuse, and death at the hands of the Ayatollahs was finally on the horizon. So, why all of a sudden, are we appeasing the Iranian crocodile?

Israel’s Existence Is Not Predicated On Who Sits In The Oval Office

As the Bible profoundly declares, Israel’s existence is not predicated on who sits in the Oval Office, whether its enemies acquire weapons of mass destruction, or its popularity on the world scene. The Jewish State exists today by the sovereign hand and authority of God, who promised to regather the Jews into their ancestral homeland for “His Holy name’s sake” and protect them from ever being uprooted again. Israel's survival is as divinely guaranteed as the prophetic words of God who swore to restore them as a nation. The same can not be said for the United States.

A Baffling Deal With The Most Untrustworthy Regime On The Planet

It's not hard to imagine what Iran's regime will do with a financial windfall of hundreds of billions of dollars. Again, they will lie low as much as they can until Trump leaves office, and then they will resume pouring those newfound billions into rebuilding their nuclear and missile programs and funding the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah. President Trump is no dummy. He knows what Iran's regime is all about, but it seems the economic factor loomed large here. He warned yesterday of a “global depression” if the Iran issue was not resolved soon.

The Rising Antisemitic Rhetoric In The Name Of Christ Must Be Confronted

This rising antisemitic rhetoric from those claiming the name of Christ must be confronted. It’s affecting the Jewish people in tangible, sometimes bloody ways; and we must denounce it wherever it surfaces. For the many Christians who support Israel and the Jewish people, Scripture—not influencers—must remain our authority. There, we find Paul’s admonition to Gentile believers not to “boast against” the Jewish people, “for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable” (Rom. 11:18, 29).

Capitulating To The Enemy?: The Good, The Bad, And The Unknown In The Memorandum of Understanding

Have you ever had a person in your life that you greatly admire and respect do something that completely shocks you, and not in a good way? Your heart breaks; you wonder what’s happened. How could this person do these things? It makes no sense! That is how I have felt these past few weeks as I’ve watched the actions taken by President Donald Trump. I love the man. He has done so much for my country, especially when it comes to how we’ve dealt with Gaza. But his recent decisions regarding Iran have left me baffled.

The Iran Deal Leaves A Regime Standing That Fired Ballistic Missiles On My Children… Forgive Me If I Don’t Stand Up And Clap

My family spent weeks, like everyone else in Israel, listening for rocket alerts that went off day and night. I had to learn the geography of my own neighborhood in a brand new way. I know where the bomb shelters are. I know if my kids want to go to the park, to ensure that there is a fortified concrete shelter within a 90-second radius. Can you imagine that? The deal that's being celebrated may buy everyone in America 25 cents cheaper gas, but it's going to leave a regime standing that fired ballistic missiles on my children at two o'clock in the morning.

If America Empowers A Regime That Openly Calls For Israel’s Destruction, There Will Be Significant Consequences

There is also a biblical dimension that many Christians will immediately recognize. Genesis 12:3 records God’s promise to Abraham: ” I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you.” That principle has never been revoked. God’s covenant relationship with Israel remains intact. Any policy that strengthens Israel’s enemies while weakening Israel’s security should concern Christians who take Scripture seriously. This is not simply a matter of foreign policy. It is also a matter of biblical recompense for foolish actions that jeopardize Israel and the West.
