We’re beginning to see new levels of radical Islamic brutality. Both the amount of violence and its horrific nature seem to be escalating. Stories emerging from Afghanistan about Taliban actions are starting to rival the atrocities of ISIS. And the constant stream of reports about Muslim on Muslim attacks in the Middle East are beginning to numb our Western sensibilities.
I think we are entering a new era of what I call “Spiritual World War.” And I believe that, more and more, we are going to see the conflict focusing on the war against Christianity and the war against Israel.
And although Israel is enduring a severe increase in the amount of internal terrorist activity, it is also being ganged up on anew by the governments of the world.
France recently hosted the Initiative for Peace in the Middle East. Many Western nations attended the event. They were there to discuss ways to bring “peace” to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Oddly, though, Israel and the Palestinians weren’t invited. The French government promised that they would be invited to later sessions that will be held to work out the arrangements for peace in the Middle East. Nice of them, wouldn’t you say?
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry attended the summit. Though he urged caution about forcing strictures on Israel and he opposed setting a timetable, he did sign the meeting’s final communique. For some observers, the communique was quite benign. But it did contain a statement that was quite disturbing. It said that the participants’ goal is “fully ending the occupation that began in 1967.”
By agreeing to this communique, the United States joined other nation in calling Israel an “occupying force.” “Fully ending the occupation that began in 1967” is an indirect way of saying that Israel should retreat to the 1967 lines. Those lines are indefensible.
The present U.S. administration and most of the nations of the world cling to a delusion. They believe that if the Palestinians are appeased, they will transform themselves from a society of terrorists into friendly neighbors. It would be like the U.S. trying to win World War Two by handing Maryland, Virginia, and half of Washington, D.C. over to Nazi Germany. And besides, Israel knows that any agreement reached with the Palestinian Authority now must be honored by Hamas when it takes over the entire Palestinian government and territories. Which may be sooner than later because Mahmoud Abbas is 81 and in ill health.
But Hamas is governed by a founding charter that declares: “There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad.” Hamas’s terrorism and hatred is directly tied to the Islamic faith. So don’t expect them to change any time soon.

In the full video version of the Hal Lindsey Report presented June 17, 2016, Hal indicates the seriousness of Islam as it relates to world governments and peoples. Here are two pertinent statements:
“More than anything else, Islam is a way of thinking and living. Yes it is a religion, but it is also a blueprint for government and it is a plan to take over the world.”
“If only 10% of Muslims really take literally what the Koran and hadith teach, that’s still 160 million on a mission to destroy Western civilization. That makes Islam far and away the most dangerous ideology in the world.”
