SYNAGOGUE ATTACK |
| |
10/27/2018 • Jerusalem |

As I do nearly every morning, I switched on Fox News on my small bathroom TV this morning as I prepared myself for the day ahead. “Oye!” I shouted out as the headline revealed yet another mass casualty shooting was underway in America, this time in a synagogue in Pittsburgh. My immediate horror was quickly deepened when I learned the atrocity was taking place at the Etz Ha’im” (Tree of Life) synagogue. I spoke there to a large crowd in the mid 1990’s as a guest of the Jewish Federation of Pittsburgh, eager to hear my comments on the nascent Oslo Peace accords between the PLO and Israel and the growing radical Muslim threat against it and the Jewish state. I am sadly assuming that at least a few people who heard me then were at the synagogue this morning when the deadly anti-Semitic attack took place. My prayers are going up for them and for all directly affected by the cowardly terrorist attack. A similar anti-Semitic shooting attack took place in April 1997 at a Messianic synagogue in Dallas just one week after I spoke there to a packed congregation. Thankfully the 48 year old neo-Nazi, who shouted out "Die Jews die!" when the attack began, was thrown back by the force of his own semi automatic rifle, sending his bullets harmlessly into the ceiling. Several years ago, friends in Las Vegas, where I had a four hour airport layover, took me to a fabulous buffet lunch at the Mandalay hotel, from where the horrible mass shooting occurred in early October last year. I was in the same airport terminal in Ft. Lauderdale that was attacked by another gunman in early January last year, just a couple weeks before the shooting occurred. While on speaking tours in South Florida over the years, I passed by the high school many times in the same city where 17 people--mostly students--were slaughtered early this year. While heading to a large Messianic conference in Orlando earlier this decade, I drove by the Pulse nightclub that was later attacked in June 2016, leaving 49 dead. Of course, during my 35 years as a reporter in Israel, I had the gruesome task of rushing to the scene of many mass casualty terrorist attacks in Jerusalem and elsewhere, one of them just a couple blocks from my home, which left eight Israelis dead. Despite this awful reality, I still feel that Israel is safer, and definitely saner, than America and many other places in this increasingly violent world. I have shared this opinion many times over the years while speaking to my American Jewish friends, urging them to consider a move to the world’s only Jewish state. On days like these it is especially good to know that the Prince of Peace, Yeshua, is coming again to restore true shalom to this crumbling world!

The Israeli government has not conducted ANY military operations against Iranian forces in Syria since a Russian spy plane was brought down by Syrian anti-aircraft fire on September 17th...a date I felt over one year ago might prove to be crucial in setting off a new Middle East and/or Korean war. The IDF silence comes despite the fact that Iran continues to strengthen its own forces stationed in Syria and its surrogate forces in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, where more rioting occurred today as yet another forest fire was started by Palestinian incendiary kites and balloons near Ashkelon. Many Israelis are now asking why the government has not yet launched its declared IDF operation to deal a “crushing blow” to the radical Hamas movement, which controls the small coastal zone, and also to the Islamic Jihad group closely allied with Tehran. Some analysts say the Netanyahu government is apparently reluctant to start any military action---which is clearly needed after six months of escalating Palestinian violence and terror--because of the likelihood that Iran would then order a Hezbollah rocket blitz against Israeli population centers and military bases in a “show of support” for the Gaza Palestinians who are being used to ignite a fuller regional war (which the mullahs falsely believe they can win)...... Meanwhile the Turkish Erdogan regime is adding fuel to the fire by stoking the growing fissure between Saudi Arabia and its western and regional allies due to the Khashoggi killing. I suspect the affair will eventually lead to the collapse of autocratic Saud family rule over most of the Arabian peninsula, which began nearly 100 years ago. This would threaten Hashemite family control over nearby Jordan. Both Arab countries are listed as participants in a regional plot to destroy Israel as recorded in Psalm 83, meaning current public and private ties between the two Arab states and Israel will be cut. I revealed in my 1995 END OF DAYS novel that I suspect the Psalm 83 war will closely follow the fulfillment of Isaiah 17, which describes an apparent intense conflict that leaves Israel greatly weakened and Damascus destroyed. That war appears to be very much on the horizon. By the way, Iran (Persia) is not mentioned as being part of the Psalm 83 plot, probably because it has already been dealt a severe blow in the previous Syria-Israel conflict that the rogue Shiite Muslim regime is even now trying to spark off. Keep looking up while you pray! |

IMMINENT GAZA WAR |
| |
10/16/2018 • Jerusalem |

The roiling Middle East has taken two more ominous steps toward all out war this week. One is the obvious Hamas decision to ignore repeated Israeli warnings and instead obey their Iranian pay masters who want them to continue attacks upon Israel while Iran completes preparations for war in the north (over half the southern forest near the Negev Desert has now been destroyed by explosive Palestinian air borne bombs since the cross border attacks began last March. I described these attacks in detail during my weekly radio segment on the Prophecy Today program, with a link below). PM Netanyahu said on Sunday that “major blows” are about to be dealt to the terrorist-led Gaza Strip, with his Defense Minister revealing on Tuesday that a major IDF operation is about to begin that will “bring quiet for at least five years” to the tottering Palestinian coastal zone.….. The second new step towards all out conflagration is the mushrooming crisis in relations between the United States and Saudi Arabia, which has Israeli officials in a panic since the oil rich Muslim kingdom was supposed to play an important role in the upcoming conflict. Some security analysts are saying that the crisis may be the tipping point that encourages the Muslim mullahs who rule financially crippled Iran to lash out at Israel with all of their might, especially via massive Hezbollah missile strikes.

OCTOBER WAR AGAIN? |
| |
10/6/2018 • Jerusalem |

Exactly 45 years to the day when Syria and Egypt attacked Israel on her holiest day, Yom Kippur, the explosive Middle East continues to move ever closer to all-out war. Such a conflagration would probably involve at least several Sunni Muslim Arab countries that are quietly allied with Israel in its escalating struggle against the Shiite Muslim Iranian clerical regime and its allies, Syria, Lebanese Hezbollah militiamen, Shiite forces in Yemen, and possibly even Turkey despite its Sunni Muslim majority. Most ominously, the United States and Russia will most likely be directly involved--on opposite sides of course--and maybe even China as well, which is currently strengthening its alliance with Vladimir Putin. Israel’s vaulted Air Force has yet to undertake any operations in Syria since the Kremlin sent four anti-aircraft S-300 surface to air missile systems to the brutal Assad regime last Tuesday, which has essentially won its seven year war against Syrian Sunni Muslim forces and their allies with deep Iranian, Hezbollah and Russian military help. Every week another line is crossed toward all out war. This week, along with escalating rioting in the Gaza Strip and the ominous arrival of the S-300 systems in Syria, Iran launched missiles against Islamic State forces still operating in eastern Syria, sending the regime’s deadly warheads through Iraqi airspace and over the heads of nearby American forces. This was quickly followed by a long range Iranian drone attack on the same area, located just a couple hundred miles northeast of the Golan Heights. As I’ve thought for many years, the next major regional conflict will probably involve the fulfillment of Isaiah 17--the destruction of Damascus and weakening of Israel--but NOT the annihilation of the world’s only Jewish state as vowed by Iran’s devilish leaders. Keep looking up and pray!

MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY JERUSALEM Israeli security sources say relations between Russia and Israel have sunk to depths not seen since the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990's. Most analysts and news reports are focusing on the imminent arrival of eight advanced Russian S-300 missile battery systems in war torn Syria--despite Israeli pleas to Moscow that the sophisticated weapons not be handed over to the brutal Assad regime. While the missiles could greatly hamper IDF operations in Syrian and Lebanese airspace, they can also take down aircraft over most of Israel itself. However far more worrisome is today’s arrival of sophisticated Electronic Warfare (EW) equipment that can block low level satellite and other communication signals in the same area, something Israel has never dealt with. Russia says it is doing all this because of “criminal Israeli behavior” when Syrian forces shot down a Russian spy jet last week soon after the IDF bombed Iranian rocket shipments heading for Hezbollah forces in Lebanon. My sources say Iran may open fire on Israel and several Gulf Arab countries with its regional allies in Syria, Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, Iraq and Yemen as soon as the S-300 systems are operational (i.e. very soon). Watch and pray!

In a provocative move that may signal imminent full-scale war in the roiling Middle East, Russia has ordered all non Russian ships and aircraft to stay out of the eastern Mediterranean Sea in a wide area between the island of Cyprus and the coasts of Lebanon and Syria. This is due to unscheduled “military exercises” that the Kremlin says it will hold for an undefined period of time in the area. The unprecedented closure will prevent Israeli air force and naval vessels from operating there, and also American and French forces as well--a possible precursor of war say some Israeli military analysts. This sudden and unexpected move came soon after Hezbollah’s leader claimed his powerful military arsenal includes weapons “that will surprise Israel” in the pending conflict. Analysts fear the group may possess chemical weapons and possibly even field nuclear warheads, although these would be controlled by the group’s Iranian masters. I will be giving my weekly radio update on the extremely tense situation on the Prophecy Today weekend program this Saturday at 1:15 PM EST, or 6:15 PM in London, which can be heard live on their website, posted later there as well.

YOM KIPPUR |
| |
9/18/2018 • Jerusalem |

TUESDAY MORNING 9:00 AM. Israeli Jews are beginning the annual Yom Kippur fast as I write, with officials keeping a wary eye on the north after Russia claimed Israel was responsible for the downing of a Russian spy jet off the Syrian coast late Sunday night. Israeli leaders say it was Syrian missile fire that destroyed the jet, which came minutes after IDF warplanes bombed a Syrian military target close to Russia’s air base near the coastal city of Latakia. The Syrians apparently mistook Russia’s sophisticated spy plane returning to the base for an attacking Israeli warplane, leaving 15 Russians dead and Moscow in a tizzy. Russian leaders are vowing to respond in some sort of way, meaning this will not be a quiet fast for many Israeli governmental and military officials. So despite this week’s significant agreement between Russia and Turkey to try to block a pending Syrian-Iranian military offensive in northwestern Syria near the Turkish border, tensions remain extremely high in the region. The Israeli public is also mourning the murder of Ari Fuld, a well known American-Israeli television commentator who was killed by a young Palestinian terrorist earlier this week. May all of you who are fasting today have an easy one, and with the Good Lord’s help, a peaceful one as well. |

WORLD WAR 3? |

9/11/2018 • Jerusalem |

While a gigantic and powerful hurricane targets America’s vulnerable east coast not too far from the nation’s capital city, dark and ominous war clouds continue to swirl around the rumbling Middle East, The usually reliable Israeli Debka intelligence news site is reporting that major war appears to be imminent, involving not only such regional countries as Israel, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and the Arab Gulf states, but also the USA, France, Britain, Turkey, Russia and probably even China, which took part in Russian naval war games last week near Syria’s west coast. I will be posting a fuller report on the pending war soon. My weekly radio report is available at media.prophecytoday.com/interviews/dolan-9-8-18.mp3

THE BIG BEAR WAKES UP |

8/29/2018 • Jerusalem |

The Russian Defense Minister has just announced that his country will hold its biggest military “exercises” since the Soviet Union was at the height of its Cold War power just months before Ronald Reagan became America’s Commander in Chief in November 1980 (the same month I moved to Israel). The war games will take place in central and eastern Russia, said the Defense Minister, involving a staggering 300,000 forces, some on naval vessels in the Black Sea. These forces could fairly easily be redirected south toward Turkey and other areas bordering the roiling Middle East. This jarring news came soon after the Iranian Shiite Muslim clerical regime boisterously proclaimed that American and other navies have no business in the Persian Gulf. The US 5th Fleet is of course headquartered in Bahrain on the Persian Gulf. Meanwhile Iran signed a "mutual defense" agreement with the brutal Syrian Assad regime, apparently aimed at insuring its continued stay in the country. Fearing imminent war, the French government today restricted all diplomatic travel to Iran. The war clouds are clearly gathering over what the Bible calls the geographical and spiritual center of the world. To hear my latest radio update last weekend on the pending storm, paste in this “Prophecy Today” link with Dr. Jimmy DeYoung: media.prophecytoday.com/interviews/dolan/8-25-18.mp3

Several Mideast media outlets say that Russian and Syrian forces, backed by Iran, are planning to attack American, and possibly Israeli, targets in the region in the coming hours or days. Russian reports say the US is preparing to strike Damascus at any time. This comes after Iran today basically ordered Western naval forces out of the Persian Gulf, and said the Straights of Hormuz will be closed to all oil traffic, causing chaos on world financial markets if so if not a full on world war.
