Ezekiel 38 Bonds Strengthen

Turkey, Russia, Iran Alliance Against Israel

Ezekiel-38-bonds-strengthen-740x440Prior to 2018 there appeared to be potential for a developing Turkey-Israel alliance for the distribution of Israel’s Leviathan Project’s natural gas through a pipeline to Turkey and then to the EU.  However, in 2018 Israel agreed to a US-backed 2,000 kilometer-long EastMed undersea natural-gas pipeline deal with Cyprus and Greece to supply the European Union which cut Turkey out of Israel’s Leviathan huge offshore natural-gas discovery.

Last week Turkey made moves to stop the Israel-Cyprus-Greece natural gas deal claiming that “the planned Israeli undersea pipeline infringes on an area claimed by Turkey under an economic agreement reached with Libya.” according to Algemeiner.com  Turkey asked the United Nations to recognize a deal between Turkey and Libya as preceding Israel’s deal and having priority of status.  Turkey’s foreign minister commented that his country was prepared to respond powerfully against anyone who attempted to infringe Turkish sovereignty.

Apparently, the situation is escalating and tensions are increasing as the Turkish Navy forced an Israeli research vessel out of Cypriot waters on Dec. 14th. Turkish news reports the incident as repelling an invasion, “The Turkish Navy did not allow unilateral tenders by the Greek Cypriot Administration (GASC) to invade the Eastern Mediterranean energy fields…The Israeli ship, which stopped its research, was forced to leave the area…Europe’s natural gas pipeline projects will now have to knock on the door of Turkey.”

The latest increase in tensions between Turkey and Israel is worrying. Further provocation from any side could result in armed conflict tied to conflicting territorial disputes and regional rivalries.

Koran, Peace and World Dominion

By Leave a Comment

All I can say is ‘Wow’ … soon all there may be left to be said is ‘Woe’.

The world is coming to terms that Islam as written in the Koran and as practiced by fundamental Muslims is not about ‘peace’ at all, but about world dominion. Mohammed provided 3 options, either a) convert to Islam, b) pay a tax called ‘jizya’ or c) be executed.

A Danish cartoon mocking Mohammed, the prophet of Islam, has sparked a wave of rage in offended muslims that is spreading across the world.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran is clearly bent on obtaining nuclear weapons and destroying both the United States and Israel.

President Kim Jong Il of North Korea is convinced that the United States is going to attack North Korea and is apparently trying to sell Plutonium for nuclear weaponery to Iran.

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is still in a coma after suffering a stroke 1 month ago. He has had 7 surgeries in this time. It is unlikely he will ever regain consciousness. I’m inclined to believe Israel will vote for a strong ‘hawk’ to fill the office, most likely Benjamin Netanyahu.

The relative stability of the world’s situation is precariously teetering on the edge of disaster.
