I am reading a new book (the title of which I will reveal later – “Inside the Revolution by Joel Rosenberg) that has some quotes in it that are extremely thought provoking. Let’s play a guessing game. I will give you some quotes from the book and a few that are not from the book and I would like for you to see if you can determine who said them.
I’ll come back to this post and give you the name of the book and the sources of the quotes on Thursday. Ready? Ok, I said I would be back Thursday but it is going to be better for me to do this today (Wednesday) so here is the ‘reveal’. All my new facts will be printed in RED!!
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. ” Jesus in John 14
‘”Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.” Psalm 34: 14
“I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant. I will establish them and increase their numbers, and I will put my sanctuary among them forever. ” Ezekiel 37: 26
Do ya see a pattern in these verses?? God is big on peace, huh?
“The governments of the world should know that….Islam will be victorious in all the countries of the world, and Islam and the teachings of the Qur’an will prevail all over the world.” Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini – January 1979
“If they (Jews) all gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide.” Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah – October 23, 2002
“I must announce that the Zionist regime (Israel), with a 60 year record of genocide, plunder, invasion, and betrayal is about to die and will soon be erased from the geographical scene.” Mahmoud Ahmadinejad – current sitting President of Iran – June 2, 2008
“God willing, with the force of God behind it, we shall soon experience a world without the United States and Zionism.” Mahmoud Ahmadinejad – current sitting President of Iran – October 26, 2005
“We now predict a black day for America–and the end of the United States as the United States, God willing.” Osama bin Laden interview with ABC News – May 1998
“Washington should instead bow to the inevitable. If Iran is bound and determined to have nuclear weapons, let it.” Ted Koppel – Op ed piece for the New York Times – 2006
“They (Iran) are a sovereign state–we have 28,000 (nuclear warheads)—why can’t they have 10? They aren’t usable by any sane person.” CNN founder Ted Turner – 2006
“Think about it….Iran, Cuba, Venezuela—these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don’t pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us. You know, Iran—they spend one one-hundredth of what we spend of the military.” Barack Obama, President of the United States of America – Town Hall meeting while running for president 2008
Can you guess who the authors of these quotes are? Stop back by on Thursday and I’ll give you the answers.
Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you can see that we are in pitiful shape in this country. Most average citizens do NOT realize the dangers that Iran poses to the United States and to Israel. Iran is likely within months ( if we are lucky ) of having nuclear bomb capabilities. The President of Iran believes that destroying the United States and Israel will usher in the Islamic Messiah. I don’t believe these are idle threats. If you want to read more on this go here. We need to be praying like mad for Israel and the leaders of our country.
If you have not read any of Joel Rosenberg’s books, I would highly recommend them. He has a series of fictional novels based on Ezekiel 38 and 39, as well as two non fiction books detailing the current situation in the middle East and how it could affect both Israel and the United States.
