Palestinians reject US push for peace talks beyond April
"RAMALLAH — A senior Palestinian official on Thursday rejected US moves to extend an April deadline for nine months of hard-won talks with Israel to culminate in a framework peace deal."

“There is no meaning to prolonging the negotiation, even for one more additional hour, if Israel, represented by its current government, continues to disregard international law,” Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erakat told AFP.

Nine months end and the birth pangs begin.

Isaiah 66:9 Would I ever bring this nation to the point of birth and then not deliver it?” asks the Lord.“No! I would never keep this nation from being born,” says your God.10 “Rejoice with Jerusalem!    Be glad with her, all you who love her    and all you who mourn for her.11 Drink deeply of her glory even as an infant drinks at its mother’s comforting breasts.”12 This is what the Lord says:“I will give Jerusalem a river of peace and prosperity. The wealth of the nations will flow to her.Her children will be nursed at her breasts, carried in her arms, and held on her lap.13 I will comfort you there in Jerusalem as a mother comforts her child.”14 When you see these things, your heart will rejoice. You will flourish like the grass!Everyone will see the Lord’s hand of blessing on his servants— and his anger against his enemies.15 See, the Lord is coming with fire, and his swift chariots roar like a whirlwind.He will bring punishment with the fury of his anger and the flaming fire of his hot rebuke.16 The Lord will punish the world by fire and by his sword.He will judge the earth, and many will be killed by him.

Ezekiel 38:
7 “Get ready; be prepared! Keep all the armies around you mobilized, and take command of them. 8 A long time from now you will be called into action. In the distant future you will swoop down on the land of Israel, which will be enjoying peace after recovering from war and after its people have returned from many lands to the mountains of Israel. 9 You and all your allies—a vast and awesome army—will roll down on them like a storm and cover the land like a cloud.

10 “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: At that time evil thoughts will come to your mind, and you will devise a wicked scheme. 11 You will say, ‘Israel is an unprotected land filled with unwalled villages! I will march against her and destroy these people who live in such confidence! 12 I will go to those formerly desolate cities that are now filled with people who have returned from exile in many nations. I will capture vast amounts of plunder, for the people are rich with livestock and other possessions now. They think the whole world revolves around them!’ 

Hosea 3:
4 This shows that Israel will go a long time without a king or prince, and without sacrifices, sacred pillars, priests, or even idols! 5 But afterward the people will return and devote themselves to the Lord their God and to David’s descendant, their king. In the last days, they will tremble in awe of the Lord and of his goodness.

Isaiah 66:
12 This is what the Lord says:
“I will give Jerusalem a river of peace and prosperity.
    The wealth of the nations will flow to her.
Her children will be nursed at her breasts,
    carried in her arms, and held on her lap.
13 I will comfort you there in Jerusalem

Israel has gone from the Holocaust to being incredibly blessed back in her land. Only the Bible could have predicted it. And yet we still have "Bible scoffers"? They are tragically ignorant of what the Creator of All [the God of Israel] is accomplishing in our time.

Netanyahu sounds the alarm on Iran's nuclear enrichment. It sounds to me that WHEN the Iran negotiations fail, Israel will be ready to attack the components of Iran's nuclear weapons program WITHOUT Obama. Obama cannot be relied upon and has no courage to make the right decision for pre-empting the terrorist state from acquiring nuclear weapons. The only question in my mind is if Iran will attack Israel first.

Washington critics sound alarm as Iran talks resume | The Times of Israel

"Mark Dubowitz, the executive director of the conservative think tank Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, warned that during the months of comprehensive negotiations, Iran would still have the capacity to hone technologies that would advance its ability to weaponize its stockpiles of enriched uranium. Research on delivery systems, warhead designs, nuclear triggers and ballistic missiles, he cautioned, could continue apace, unfettered, for months."

Four blood moons - are they significant?

I have had some trouble with the lunar tetrad theory as expressed by Mark Biltz and John Hagee. The Jewish calendar is based on the lunar calendar so wouldn't we naturally see some correlation to lunar eclipses?

Regardless, big things are on the near horizon as far as the end of this age is concerned. I have long held on this blog that as soon as war breaks out between Israel and Iran we will be in the very midst of the end of this age. With Iran maintaining its nuclear enrichment and pursuit of nuclear weapons, and with Israel's enemies continuing to gain strength on the very borders of Israel (ie. Hamas, Hezbollah), whether we have lunar eclipses or not is irrelevant. The plain truth is that with Israel back in her land, the end is near, and that is very obvious for those who are watching.

Matthew 24:
32 “Now learn a lesson from the fig tree [fig tree=Israel]. When its branches bud and its leaves begin to sprout [May 14, 1948], you know that summer is near [summer=end of the age]. 33 In the same way, when you see all these things, you can know his return is very near, right at the door.

A Misleading Cold War Analogy | The Weekly Standard

"From this perspective, recent American policy toward Iran is demoralizing—both to Iranians seeking freedom and to us. The American refusal to act in Syria, the unwillingness to see that the real war there is with Iran and its allies and proxies, the decision instead to permit Iranian and Hezbollah forces to fight there and keep Assad in power can only have strengthened the Islamic Republic. An Iranian elite that watched the Americans draw a red line in Syria and then back away from it can only view the red line we have drawn on their acquiring nuclear weapons as unconvincing."

US concerned by Americans fighting in Syria returning home 

DEBKAfile February 8, 2014, 10:37 AM (IST)

The civil war in Syria has become a matter of US homeland security over concerns that “a small number of Americans” have gone to fight with Syrian rebels and returned home, the new US Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Friday, in his first speech since taking office last year. The estimated 7,000 foreigners from 50 countries fighting in the bloody war include those from the United States, Canada and Europe, he said. Last month, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told the Senate Intelligence Committee that al-Qaeda groups in Syria have set up camps "to train people to go back to their countries.” Johnson added that Westerners are being recruited and indoctrinated in Syria to carry out “extremist missions” on their return home.

I wouldn't go either.

The survey was conducted among 1,000 American adults last Friday-Saturday."

Meanwhile in Syria...

State denies Kerry admitted US Syrian failure
"January, 2014, was the bloodiest month of the three-year Syrian civil war amid a strenuous US bid to bring diplomacy to bear for a political solution. Nearly 6,000 people died that month in Syria and the total three-year death toll shot up to at least 136,227, according to figures gathered by the Syrian Observatory of Human Rights."

Obama, the Nobel peacemaker, has overseen a whopping 4% reduction in Syria's chemical arsenal. "Amazing" what Obama can do when he controls the eyes of the msm.

111.5 million watch Seattle thrash Denver in the Super Bowl, but next to nobody cares that WWIII is brewing in the Middle East.

Obama sponsored Jihadis are openly saying: "first we take care of Assad; then Israel." Obama's half brother is fundraising for Israel's enemy: Hamas. What a strange time we live in.

Just as sure as Israel became a nation again in one day per Isaiah 66:8 (May 14, 1948 btw) - the Lord Jesus Christ will set all things right again and rule over all.
