Ken Horner Stephen, you really are a piece of work! For starters Israel will never be defeated by Palestine, which is after all a puppet state for Islamic terrorism! Israel would be foolish to lay down their arms unless of course every Muslim is dead, which could happen if they don’t quit poking the bear!! Sadly, the issues go back to even before Islam was created by Mohammed, who worshipped a wooden dirty in a temple in Mecca!! They stem from Israel’s failure to obey the directions of God! Who when they entered the promised land were instructed to exterminate all of the inhabitants of the land including their livestock. It also includes Abrams failure to wait for the promised son through Sarah and trying to fulfill the prophecy via Hagar, Sarah’s handmaiden! But, ultimately they will win out, I read the end of the book and those who oppose Israel and the God of creation will perish! So, Stephen, chose this day whom you will serve, because your eternity depends on it!!!
