Israel’s economic boom

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

December 18, 2025

Benjamin Netanyahu just announced a $112 billion gas deal with Egypt. In thelast 15 years, the   state has discovered vast gas and oil reserves in the Mediterranean. Remember how Israel was often almost mocked for not having any real natural resources, especially in contrast to her Middle East neighbors?

Those days are over.

Amid all the war and talk of war and security—topics that dominate the news cycle regarding Israel—the economy of the state of Israel is experiencing growth so incredible, one wonders if in fact there might be some sort of temporary cessation of hostilities between Israel and most of the Middle East.

Now comes word of another financial win.

Nvidia, the world’s leader in artificial intelligence computing (worth $4.3 trillion) is planning a campus in northern Israel, to be fully occupied by 2031. For up to 10,000 employees, the new site will be built on 22 acres. All these plans are being developed from the company’s headquarters in Santa Clara, California.

The multi-billion-dollar investment will turbo-charge Israel’s economy. Of course, the country is already a tech leader in innovation. The capabilities and potential ofIsraeli tech firms is already  legendary.

All Israel News reported some of the potential:

“Nvidia’s senior vice president of marketing Gilad Shainer assessed at the time that artificial intelligence is the ‘most important technology of our lifetime.’

“’Generative AI is going everywhere nowadays. You need to be able to run training on large datasets,’ Shainer said in an interview with Reuters. The Israeli-based AI computer currently ranks 34th among the world’s top 500 supercomputers.”

Perhaps most astonishing is the fact that “Nvidia’s Israeli workforce currently constitutes some 15% of the tech giant’s total global workforce.”

Incredible!

And, as an extra example that God is actually guiding things, as the Bible tells us He does, the Gaza War was thought to endanger Israel’s economy. Instead, Israel’s tech sector is strong, attracting international groups like Nvidia. What Hamas meant for evil, God meant for good.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made it clear he intends to continue investing in Israel and is not deterred by the military threats.

“’The thing I showcased, which is the heart and soul of the Blackwell processor, came from Israel. And so, we will continue to invest heavily in Israel. This entire region is very important to me,’ Huang stated last year.”

The more than 3,000 Israeli employees are reinforced by another 100 in Judea-Samaria, and even Gaza itself.

When you consider this type of economic juggernaut against a backdrop of war, it becomes clear that the Nvidia story is almost hidden from the public. And it should also impress President Donald Trump, whose now uneven relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu causes some to worry about U.S.-Israel relations going forward. So again, are we seeing an economic paradise that might even overcome the jihadists for a time? After all, the Abraham Accords are a cornerstone of Trump’s belief that economic advances can blunt 7th century warmongering.

Now, I don’t mean to suggest that all these things will overcome the haters. We know from Scripture that Gog-Magog will erupt in a climate of at least relative safety for Israel. And you can be sure the Abraham Accords are not built on anything but economic expediency. But we can speculate fairly accurately that Israel’s tech and energy successes will flourish for a time. After all, Gog comes to “take a spoil” and Israel has an economy that would spoil anyone.

Since 9/11, there have been 65,000 Islamic terrorist attacks across the globe. Satan’s army seeks to destroy. We should however welcome any respite from this kind of evil.

That’s a chore, however.

This past week, I spent a half-day listening to and transcribing Tucker Carlson’s Dec. 10th podcast, “Our Closest Ally,” in which the now-Israel-hating commentator made the absurd claim that Qatar is a more viable alliance for the U.S. than Israel. In fact, speaking of the famed Israel-U.S. alliance, Carlson made this chilling remark: “There’s no reason for it to stay that way forever.”

My goodness, that sounds like a threat. And it plays of course right into such prophecies as Jeremiah 30:14. There, we see that one day, Israel will literally wind up alone. Carlson might thirst for the end of Israel, but even he can’t erase Israel’s value to the international community for the time being.

Let’s pray that Israel’s marvelous economy will continue to be a bulwark against those that seek Israel’s destruction.

Although we have to be very careful about making specific predictions, let us at least hope that this good news from Israel will make the Jewish state an indispensable actor in today’s world for some time to come.

God is blessing Israel, who are trying to protect their ancient land from those who wish to destroy them. The Bible tells us the land of Israel shall blossom like a rose in the last days. Rh

‘They Sponsor Terrorism’: Trump Moves to Target Muslim Group Following Startling Report by Paul Petitte – CBN News

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

JERUSALEM — The Muslim Brotherhood is an Islamic terror group so dangerous that it’s banned in Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Egypt. This year in the U.S., Texas and Florida designated the group a foreign terrorist organization. In the coming days, the Trump administration is expected to do the same.

President Donald Trump’s executive order beginning the process of designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization follows a lengthy report by the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy, known as ISGAP.

The report, nearly 200 pages long, argues that the Muslim Brotherhood has spent decades advancing what it calls a “civilization jihad” aimed at undermining democratic institutions in the United States and the West.

“This is an organization that believes in murdering Jews, destroying Israel, and destroying the United States of America,” said Dr. Charles Asher Small, the founder and director of ISGAP. “This is their objective.”

Founded nearly a century ago in Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood now operates across the Middle East. Hamas originated as the group’s Palestinian branch, according to the report.

In November, Small appeared alongside lawmakers and scholars to warn that the Brotherhood is “more than halfway through” what ISGAP describes as a 100-year plan to erode democratic societies from within.

“They sponsor terrorism, murder, and mayhem across the planet,” said U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee at a recent Knesset prayer event. “They are a very negative and destructive force, and it’s very important for the United States to use its power and influence to call them out for what they are.”

The ISGAP report focuses heavily on what it describes as the Brotherhood’s influence operations in the West, particularly in academia. It alleges that groups such as the Muslim Students Association and Students for Justice in Palestine serve as vehicles for spreading the organization’s ideology. The report cites Students for Justice in Palestine as a major force behind violent anti-Israel protests at Columbia University.

Small pointed to the election of Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City as evidence of what he describes as long-term political penetration.
“He came out of SJP,” Small said. “He was a student activist for Students for Justice in Palestine at Bowdoin College. It’s important for your listeners to understand that SJP comes out of American Muslims for Palestine, which is a Muslim Brotherhood-backed organization.”

Trump’s executive order states that Muslim Brotherhood chapters in Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt pose a threat to U.S. national security interests.

Middle East analyst Dr. Mike Evans said he urged the administration to expand the scope of the order to include Brotherhood-linked activity in Syria, Turkey and Qatar.

“The Muslim Brotherhood and Qatar funded and fueled terror — al Qaeda, the Taliban, Iran and Hamas,” Evans said. “These people hate us.”

At the state level, decisions by Texas and Florida governors to label both the Muslim Brotherhood and the Council on American-Islamic Relations as terrorist organizations are currently being challenged in court.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott cited past convictions tied to CAIR affiliates in defending the designation. “One of the founders of the Texas branch of CAIR was sent to prison for 65 years for financing terrorism,” Abbott said. “The fact of the matter is there are people associated with CAIR who pose a serious danger.”

Under Trump’s order, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent must submit a joint report by the end of the year outlining next steps toward a formal designation.

The Muslim Brotherhood is already banned as a terrorist organization in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Syria, and Jordan. However, the ISGAP report says Brotherhood-linked organizations continue to operate freely in Turkey and Qatar, funding media outlets and political influence campaigns worldwide.

“Qatar is buying favor with the BBC, CNN, and other media outlets, including Al Jazeera, and it’s now into our political system,” Small said.

Evans said a formal U.S. designation would dramatically limit the group’s global reach. “It’s a game changer,” Evans said. “When you designate a terrorist organization, they can’t move anymore. They have no room to operate.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has praised Trump’s initiative and indicated Israel may follow with its own designation.

Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Sharren Haskel warned that radical Islamist groups have been clear about their long-term goals. “We’ve seen the movements of radical jihadist groups who say very clearly that what they seek is the destruction of Western civilization as we know it today,” Haskel said.

Conservatives Who Called Al Jazeera ‘Terror TV’ Now Silent as Qatar Eyes CNN.

For twenty years, conservative media called Al Jazeera “terror TV” because Qatar funded it. They insisted that Qatari money in journalism meant Qatari influence, and Qatari influence meant danger. This was the refrain on Fox News, talk radio, and all across the right-wing blogosphere. A foreign state owning a news outlet was treated not as a story but as a threat.

And now? Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund is reportedly among the investors approached to help finance a takeover bid that includes CNN. Reuters reported that David Ellison’s team explored funding from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE as they assembled the capital stack for the Paramount–Skydance offer. These are not confirmed investments, but the outreach is documented. A foreign state’s sovereign wealth entering an American newsroom should set off the alarms that conservatives spent years building.

Instead, there is silence.

There are several different ways to overthrow a society and a country. One is to outright invade with military force, another is to infiltrate our collages and government with paid actors to change our educational institutes or governmental policy. We see that almost everyday here in the U.S. Qatar and Saudi Arabia have done just that. They are not our friend, they don’t use threats of war, but they silently take over with petro $. Education institutions, governmental subterfuge and now a Qatari investment fund trying to buy CNN? Emphatically NO! We have grown much too close to this terror sponsoring nation in the Middle East. On the bright side, you might not even notice the difference. Just my perspective. Rh

Prayer Alert

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Morning prayer warriors!

Urgent need for prayer today.  It seems our President and his administration are making deals with the devil, and no one can do that without getting burnt.  Much on my mind as I see a crumbling of foundational support for Israel and a cozying up to the Arab and Muslims in the MIddle East.  Prayer points below.

  • Worldwide intifada (various attacks here in the US, Australia, France, Germany). Devil knows his time is short.
  • Wisdom for Trump.(he needs a true spiritual advisor)
  • Deal making with the sponsor of terror. (Qatar)
  • Saudi Arabia is pushing for a two state solution.  (Blowback on America if done)
  • Peace commission (10 members) most anti Israel.
  • Trump’s pride getting in the way.  (God’s plan??)
  • Trump & Vance telling not asking Israel to stop settlements in Judea & Samaria.
  • Syria (next hotspot)??

I could go on and on, I see dangerous times for the US if we get in bed with the Islamist.  We seem to have pushed investments over the covenant for peace. We must never forget God’s eternal covenant with Abraham.  (My opinion)

God is sovereign!  I am not hopeless, but hopeful!  The blessed hope!  Two rivers flowing side by side, one righteous (God is moving) another evil.  Let’s ask for spiritual rain for the righteous river to overflow.  I sense this is a particular Kronos time.  Rh

Syrian Sanctions Lifted

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Not sure how this will play out, Syria is run by a former Al Qaeda terrorist. Israel and Syria seem to be trying to work out some sort of peace arrangement, and Trump is all in on the Syrian President. Hard to believe a leopard can change its spots. Trust but verify. Rh

Syrians are celebrating: Between Wednesday and Thursday night, the U.S. House of Representatives announced that it had approved the Defense Authorization Bill, which includes a provision lifting the sanctions imposed on Syria under the Caesar Act.

These sanctions were originally placed on the Assad regime for crimes against humanity committed during the civil war that erupted in the previous decade. The Senate is expected to approve the bill within the coming days, after which it will be sent to President Donald Trump for final signature.

The Caesar Act is named after the alias of a former Syrian military photographer who risked his life to smuggle out thousands of images documenting torture and executions of political prisoners by the Assad regime. Since fleeing Syria, he has devoted his life to seeking justice for the victims of Assad’s brutality.

Passed in late 2019, the Act enabled the United States to impose sweeping sanctions on the Assad regime for its crimes against humanity, including the use of chemical weapons and the torture of detainees. It also targeted individuals and entities that supported the regime, with the goal of weakening its economic capabilities.

The Defense Authorization Bill, which includes the repeal of the Caesar Act sanctions, is expected to take effect on January 1, 2026. However, in its current form, the bill grants the U.S. President the authority to impose new sanctions if circumstances require.

This marks a significant political victory for the government of Ahmad al-Shar’a. Despite the involvement of Islamist governing factions in mass atrocities against Alawites and Druze, al-Shar’a has continued to enjoy support from the Trump administration.

Following the de facto repeal of the Act, thousands of Syrians poured into the streets in celebration, as the sanctions had placed severe strain on the local economy. Celebrations were reported in Damascus’s Umayyad Square, as well as in Aleppo, Homs, and Latakia.

Syrian Tourism Minister Mazen al-Salhani stated that “the repeal of the Caesar Act is a historic turning point that corrects the path of international justice and opens wide horizons for the national economy.” Speaking to the state news agency, he added: “The tourism sector is still recovering. Lifting the restrictions will expand investment opportunities and ease the movement of tourism delegations. This will strengthen Syria’s position on both the regional and international tourism map.”

Syria’s Minister for Emergency and Disaster Management, Raed al-Salh, also welcomed the development: “For the first time in decades, Syria is free of American sanctions. The repeal of the Caesar Act ends a long era of isolation and punitive measures for which Syrians paid twice – suffering under the crimes of the previous regime and then enduring the economic and institutional collapse that followed.”

Doha Forum

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Doha, the world capital of the Muslim Brotherhood and the ATM of Hamas, is opening this weekend its annual Terror Laundering Gala, the Doha Forum.

On stage, under crystal chandeliers

• Ahmad al Sharaa – former Al Qaeda commander who drowned Syria in blood, now scrubbed and airbrushed as “Mr President.”

• Jawad Zarif – foreign minister of Iran’s terror regime

• Hakan Fidan – Erdogan’s Islamist enforcer

All beaming for Al-Jazeera, the global megaphone of the Muslim Brotherhood.

A brief reminder of the terror money trail

• Hundreds of millions to Al Qaeda in Syria

• Hundreds of millions of dollars every year to the Taliban through Doha banks

• Qatari “charities” caught funneling money to Al Shabaab

• More than two billion dollars to Hamas

And who flies in to bless this spectacle

• Tucker Carlson – Mr. “I’m just asking questions,” the man who described Hamas jihadists as a “political party” and wondered “what is so bad about Sharia,” now arriving with his entourage to bow before Qatar’s prime minister on stage.

CNN star Christiane Amanpour and Francesca Albanese – Sunday preachers of human rights, Monday hostesses for every blood-soaked Islamist foreign minister on earth

In the end, just as in Tolkien’s epic, the real question floating above the hall is not political. It is the oldest moral test known to humanity

Can a person refuse the temptation of power, money, and prestige when they are offered in the service of evil?

In Doha, this test is not merely failed, it is celebrated!

The self-proclaimed Syrian president Ahmad Al-Shar’a told the Doha Forum that “terrorism” is often politicized, insisting that real terror is the killing of innocents – from Gaza’s alleged 60,000 victims, to the millions displaced in Syria, and the countless civilians lost in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It seems the perfume he received at the Oval Office didn’t work its magic. To this former Al-Qaeda commander, the rape, slaughter, and kidnapping of Israeli civilians do not qualify as terrorism. Only when Israel defends itself does he suddenly remember the word.

Syria’s ISIS terrorist President Abu Mohammed Al Julani Says the US and Israel Are The Real Terrorists, Not Him, Not Al Qaeda, and Not ISIS

During the Doha Forum yesterday, Syria’s new “president,” the former leader of al-Qaeda and ISIS in Syria whose real name is Abu Mohammed Al-Julani, praised his fallen commanders and declared, “We saw wars in Afghanistan, in Iraq; all those who were killed were innocent.”

He said Al Qaeda is innocent.

He then went on to claim that the United States is the real terrorist organization in an attempt to justify that he and his group are not terrorists.

Forwarded from Amir Tsarfati.

And Saudi Arabia weighs in.

Ex-Saudi intel chief: “In my view, it is Israel now that is the troublemaker and should be reigned in…”

Asked which is a greater threat to regional stability during an onstage interview at the Milken Institute’s Middle East and Africa Summit in Abu Dhabi yesterday, Saudi Prince Turki Al Faisal responded: “For the moment, definitely it is Israel. We’ve seen that Iran has been dealt a strong hand by the US,” he said, apparently referencing Washington’s strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Prince Turki, who as a prominent member of the Saudi royal family, remains influential in Riyadh even after leaving government.

“Events in Lebanon with the diminishing of Hezbollah and the change of the regime in Syria have obviously affected Iran’s ability to affect and influence events in the broader Middle East,” he continued. “Israel is feeling its oats by bombing Syria on almost a daily basis, continuing to bomb Palestinians — whether in Gaza or the West Bank and also in Lebanon, where there’s supposed to be a ceasefire,” Prince Turki said.

“That is definitely not a harbinger of peace in our part of the world. In my view, it is Israel now that is the troublemaker and should be reigned in,” he said.

Understand why I say it does no good to make deals with treacherous regimes. They will continually move the goal posts. They are who they are and will do whatever they can get away with. Remember Qatar was funding Hamas, when asked if they would help rebuild Gaza, they said no, they (Qatar)did not destroy Gaza. No but your terror proxy was responsible. Rh

The Unsettled Middle East

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

As always it seems the chaos of the Middle East leads my concerns for the upcoming weeks. Israel is still trying to consolidate their victories, U.S. still seems to be reaching toward the Arabs, Muslim etc. for deals and investments. Not sure I would want to get in bed with radicals. Trump seems not to notice their bad behavior. Deals made, but no money yet? All eyes will continue to be on Jerusalem that, as Bible prophecy indicates, is a stone of stumbling for the nations. Iran’s still a threat, Hezbollah still not disarmed, and Hamas still playing the same old games. Will we never learn? No, I don’t think so. Deals with deceit will never work. Time to unleash the firepower and finish the job. We are almost back where we started. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Content below taken from http://www.billkoenig.com

Trump, Netanyahu, the UN, and Iran: A High-Risk Week for Israel

This was one of the most geopolitically consequential weeks of the year for Israel, marked by unusual U.S. messaging, UN momentum against Israeli sovereignty, and large-scale military posturing by Iran. As the region reconfigures itself politically and militarily, Israel faces a tightening strategic environment that will require clarity, resolve, and decisive policy judgment.

Trump Pushes for Netanyahu Pardon — While Warning Israel on Syria

Former U.S. President Donald Trump continued publicly calling for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be pardoned of all charges related to his ongoing corruption trials in Israel. Trump framed the cases as politically motivated, urging closure for the sake of Israeli stability and unity.

However, the tonal contrast of the week was unmistakable.

Even as Trump advocated for Netanyahu’s legal relief, he personally warned Israel not to intervene militarily inside Syria, signaling that Washington does not want Israeli action disrupting sensitive regional balances — particularly where Russian, Iranian, and Syrian forces intersect.

This dual posture — unconditional rhetorical support for Netanyahu as an individual, paired with caution toward Israeli military activity — reflects Trump’s realpolitik approach: transactional, flexible, and often unscripted. For Israel, it presents both opportunity and risk.

Strong backing for Netanyahu is politically valuable, but a U.S. administration urging operational restraint in Syria could create strategic handcuffs precisely when Iran is embedding itself deeper across the northern theater.

UN Empowered Through Gaza Deal — and Moves Against Golan Heights

Trump’s Gaza stabilization plan has effectively re-elevated the United Nations into a central role in Gaza administration and long-term conflict architecture. The UN, after years of diminished influence, is suddenly positioned again as a gatekeeper for post-conflict arrangements.

The consequences were immediate.

This week, the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution calling for Israel’s withdrawal from the Golan Heights — one of the most strategically vital security buffers Israel possesses. The timing could not be more significant:

• A UN empowered by the Gaza framework

• A UN resolution targeting sovereignty over the Golan

• An international system once again conditioned to pressure Israel

For decades, the Golan Heights has been Israel’s northern shield — the high ground preventing Syrian and Iranian forces from threatening Galilee. A UN-backed withdrawal demand signals that international campaigns to erode Israel’s territorial legitimacy are escalating again.

Trump’s deal may have been designed for stabilization, but its practical outcome is that the UN now possesses renewed authority to define territorial questions, which historically has not favored Israel.

The Strategic Danger of Non-Ideological Foreign Policy

Unlike administrations with clearly defined pro-Israel ideological foundations, Trump’s foreign policy operates on pragmatic deal-flow, not doctrinal alignment. That flexibility can generate agreements — Abraham Accords proved that — but it also risks exposing Israel to rapid shifts in U.S. posture.

Non-ideological diplomacy means alliances are fluid, conditional, and transactional.

This week demonstrated that fluidity. Support for Netanyahu’s pardon suggests closeness. Warnings on Syria and a UN-empowering Gaza framework signal distance. Together, these create uncertainty — and uncertainty is a battlefield advantage for Iran, Hezbollah, and the UN diplomatic bloc.

Israel is entering a moment where the greatest threat may not be military — but diplomatic isolation combined with strategic ambiguity from its closest ally.

Iran Simulates War — and Threatens 2,000-Missile Barrage

Iran, sensing the moment, staged large-scale military exercises in the Gulf of Oman, firing ballistic and cruise missiles at simulated targets designed to reflect wartime conditions.

Just weeks ago, Iranian officials warned that if war with Israel erupts, Tehran would unleash 2,000 missiles at the same time — a saturation attack intended to overwhelm Iron Dome, David’s Sling, Arrow, and the multilayer missile defense grid.

The 12-day war already demonstrated what smaller barrages can achieve. Two thousand simultaneous launches would represent a magnitude beyond anything Israel has ever faced.

Iran is signaling capability, intent, and confidence.

Northern Front — Israel vs. Hezbollah

In the shadow of Iran’s drills, Israel continued striking Hezbollah infrastructure inside Lebanon, targeting launch sites, weapons depots, and command channels. Hezbollah is relentlessly working to reconstitute its arsenal and precision-missile capacity, seeking parity or superiority in a future war.

Israel, fully aware of this trajectory, is racing to degrade Hezbollah faster than Hezbollah can rebuild.

This is a detention-attrition cycle — but one inch away from a regional ignition point.

Wonder what the topics will be?? Pure political theatre. Problem is they are the ones determining (they think) the destiny of the world. Wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall? Interesting group though, I am sure deals will be made and agreements will be put into place to rule over the lowly subjects. Rh

Preventing not Containing Wars

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The following article is by Alma Research Center. The Alma Research and Education Center is a non-profit organization focused on researching security challenges along Israel’s northern borders with Lebanon and Syria.

This new approach to Israel’s security is working. Act before your enemies can cause damage and death. Israel is becoming more proactive in their security issues, since the Muslim and Arab world loves the cowardly sneak attack. Rh

Following October 7, there has been a shift in Israel’s strategic outlook — from a policy of containment to a proactive, preventative approach: neutralizing threats at an early stage in order to prevent the enemy’s buildup and to avoid a deterioration of the security situation.

This policy is regularly criticized by regional governments, international actors, and foreign media, who portray it as Israeli aggression and reckless behavior.

A return to a containment policy would be a mistake. The policy Israel is implementing today prevents dangerous escalation and contributes to regional stability.
