Israel vs Palestinian Conflict

It’s impact on Global Civilization


Two suicide aircraft that crashed into the Twin Towers – WTC  have
changed many people’s view of life drastically. The emergency call
button ‘911’ has been pressed by the terrorist network, on September
11th . The question is why?
      The most obvious answer is because America gave its support to the
nation of Israel. Muslims hate the Jews with a passion, and their goal
is to exterminate the nation of Israel. The question again is why?

                  The Muslims feel obligated to seek this goal of
annihilation because of the teachings of their holy book, the
Quran. Their scriptures tell them that they have a responsibility to
conquer the world for their god, Allah. They are further taught that
this responsibility is particularly urgent with regard to any territory
that has been won for Allah and subsequently lost, the land of
Palestine, which for many years was controlled by Muslims.
It is a story of spiritual warfare between light and darkness.

As we know World War I resulted in the liberation of the land of
Palestine from 400 years of Turkish rule. All of "Palestine" was to be
given to the Jews for a national homeland by a 1917 ruling of the League
of Nations. This must have panicked the power of darkness because the
Messiah will return when the Jews have been regathered to their land and
are once again in control of Jerusalem as prophesied in the Scripture.

 So, the power of evil responded by orchestrating World War II and the
Nazi Holocaust. His intention was to annihilate the Jews so that God
could not fulfill His promise to regather them. But God preserved the
Jews through the war, and in the process He motivated them to return to
their homeland.  It seems that God worked through the evil of World War
I to prepare the land for the people. In like manner, He worked through
the evil of World War II to prepare the people for the land. WW III is
likely to prepare them for conversion to the Holy One of Israel.

Islam is a cultural religion whose purpose is to impose by forces, if
necessary, a virulent form of cultural imperialism. This is very
difficult concept for free thinking person like the Westerner to
comprehend. For example, Christianity is “supra-cultural” in the sense
that it allows people to live, dress, and eat in accordance with the
culture in which they exist. Not so with Islam. Islam regulates every
aspect of life to the point that culture, religion, and politics are
inseparable. There is no separation of the mosque and state in Islamic
nations.

Freedom of religion is non-existent in the Islamic world. No Islamic
state will allow the open proclamation of the Good News. Jews are
anathema.
Islam by its very nature is incompatible with modern life and democracy.
The United States is viewed as the “Great Satan” because it leads the
world in democratic principle, which brings forth freedom of expression
and is considered to be the most important threat to the purity of
Islam.
Islam has always been a religion of the sword. The very word, Islam,
means “submission.” Every place where Islam prevails, the religion has
been imposed by military conquest. It is still the goal of Islam to
conquer the world, and America is viewed as the major obstacle to that
goal.

The Quran not only condones violence against unbelievers, it actually
commands it: “Fight and slay the pagans wherever you find them, and
seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem
of war” (Sura 9:5). As for those who resist conversion to Islam, the
Quran issues the following command: “Their punishment is . . .
execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from the
opposite sides, or exile from the land” (Sura 5:33).
Allah is an unknowable, aloof, impersonal, and capricious god who saves
or condemns people on the basis of their works. The Quran states that
Jews are people “whom Allah has cursed” (Sura 4:52). The Trinity is
specifically denied (Sura 5:73-75) and Jesus is dismissed as nothing
more than “an apostle of Allah” (Sura 4:171).
Are they worshipping the same God that Christians do?
Islam is the very antithesis of true Christianity.

However we must understand that the vast majority of Moslem people are
ignorant and they want a peaceful life, not violence. They long for
peace of mind, not the horror of committing suicide and death. They are
caught in the middle between following the teaching of the Quran and
their conscience’s appeal to lead a law-abiding life. Most of them are
torn apart between a demand to "the call of duty" for jihad (holy war)
and treating others with dignity, between Islamism’s solidarity and
respecting other religion.

We have arrived at a defining moment when truth could triumph if the
world would recognize that terrorists are not "fanatics" but devout
fundamentalist Muslims who are earnestly following their religion. This
recognition could bring fresh sympathy for Muslims of all nationalities
who are tragically trapped in that system. The exposure of the truth
could embarrass Muslim nations into opening the Islamic Curtain and
allowing freedom to enter their borders. It could be a new day of open
evangelism for the world where not force but love and reason permit each
person to determine the faith he would embrace from his heart.
