World Rallies Against Israel

BBC News Clip - World Rallies Against Israel

Oh, the raging of many nations— they rage like the raging sea! Oh, the uproar of the peoples—they roar like the roaring of great waters (Is. 17:12). Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand, and the rulers take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed (Ps. 2:1-2).

Why are the nations in such an uproar against Israel? Have you wondered what in the world is going on in the Middle East?

Why is Israel being condemned for defending itself against Hamas (an extreme fundamentalist Islamic organization funded, in part, by Iran) who has fired some 5,700 rockets and 4,000 mortar shells into Israel since 2005; in 2008 alone more than 2,000 rockets and 1,600 shells were launched at Israel.

What are your thoughts? Is this just another volatile clash in the Middle East? What are your concerns as you listen to the evening news? Are you surprised by all that is taking place? We’d love to hear what you are thinking…
