Unfortunately a peace deal will never last in my opinion, because Saudi Arabia will probable want a mutual defense pact with the U.S. That was their position last year. That would be a disaster and not in the best interest of the United States. But we shall see. Rh
Israelis woke up on Wednesday morning to the shocking report that not one, but two of their greatest enemies had suddenly died overnight.
Some hours after Israel struck Fuad Shukr, Hezbollah’s military chief – which would remain unconfirmed until late at night – reports of the death of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital of Tehran began to emerge.
The initial reports were based on statements from Iranian media citing regime officials and declarations from the Hamas terrorist organization. The reports suggested that the arch-terrorist had been killed in an Israeli airstrike, with media suggesting that a missile attack had been launched from outside the country.
Although the circumstances of Haniyeh’s assassination in a guest house belonging to the Iranian regime, in the heart of its capital, were already deeply humiliating, Thursday evening brought even more embarrassing reports from Western media.
Reports of a drone or missile attack now seem to have been disseminated by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), who were responsible for the security at the guest house, in an attempt to shift blame onto another security force within the country.
Instead, The New York Times reported – and other outlets like The Jerusalem Post confirmed – that Haniyeh was killed by a bomb that had been hidden, several weeks earlier, inside the room where the senior Hamas leader was staying, and that the bomb was activated remotely by Israeli Mossad agents who were on Iranian soil at the time.
Later on Thursday evening, IDF spokesman Brig.-Gen. Daniel Hagari indirectly confirmed this report when he stated that “no additional air strike” was launched by Israeli forces on the night Shukr was killed by the IDF.
There was “not a missile nor an Israeli unmanned aerial vehicle in the entire Middle East that night,” Hagari reiterated, before adding an unusual comment in which he didn’t elaborate.
“In recent years, Iran has been managing a terrorist infrastructure for the transfer of Iranian explosive devices to Israeli territory, for the purposes of terrorist attacks,” the IDF spokesman noted, possibly hinting that Israel had killed Haniyeh in the same manner.
“We will continue to act against Iranian terrorism with determination,” he added.
According to sources of the Jerusalem Post , the bomb had been smuggled into Iran and hidden in the guest house as far back as June. The house is located in an IRGC compound in a high-end suburb of northern Tehran.
During his frequent visits to Tehran over the past decade, the Hamas leader often stayed at this exact guest house, providing a clear target location for his assassination.
The explosive device and its activation utilized similar cutting-edge remote technology to that used in the assassination of Iranian nuclear chief Mohsen Fakhrizadeh several years ago, according to the Post
The device was allegedly calibrated with such precision that the leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terror group, Ziyad al-Nakhalah, survived the blast despite be located in an apartment next door.
The Jerusalem Post report added one more highly interesting piece of information to the puzzle.
Contrary to the widely accepted and reported opinion that the main obstacle to progress in the hostage release negotiations was Hamas’ Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar, the Post reported that in recent weeks, it was often Haniyeh who, through his opposition to certain aspects of the deal, prevented an agreement.
This makes the elimination of Haniyeh, no matter how it was ultimately carried out, even more significant and potentially beneficial for Israel. Shared from All Israel News Staff

Nearly a thousand Christians from 45 nations have expressed their support for Israel’s biblical connection to the Holy Land in a decree presented to the International Court of Justice in The Hague ahead of a key ruling by the U.N. court this week.
The direct appeal by the Christian representatives, which was hand- delivered to the court registrar for each of the 15 justices earlier this month, was made ahead of Friday’s scheduled ruling on the legality of Israel’s control of east Jerusalem and the biblical heartland of Judea and Samaria.
The decree, which was signed in The Hague by a mix of Christian religious leaders, pastors and political representatives, including former U.S. congresswoman Michele Bachmann and Pastor Satish Kumar, the head of Calvary Temple church in Hyderabad, the largest in India, highlights Israel’s connection to the land under dispute.
“We, Christian representatives of our nations from all over the world, declare and testify that the Land of Israel includes East Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria,” the July 4 decree reads. “These areas belong indisputably to Israel and are ultimately the inheritance of the Jewish people. Dividing the Land is in conflict with the Bible and the will of the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel.”
The case was taken up by the court after the U.N. General Assembly voted in December 2022 to ask the judges for a nonbinding advisory opinion on the dispute over what it termed “Occupied Palestinian Territory: East Jerusalem, West Bank and the Gaza Strip.”
At the time, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu slammed the General Assembly over the resolution, which was approved over U.S. opposition and supported by less than half of the 193 member states. He accused the world body of “distorting historical facts” and declared that the Jewish people cannot be an occupier in its own land.
“Everyone is talking about international law but this is 100% biblical,” Jack van der Tang, an evangelical minister and the president of the Hague-based International Conference of Truth Justice and Peace who is behind the initiative, told JNS in an interview on Wednesday.
David Parsons, vice president of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, said, “We came to support this initiative in The Hague to make sure the justices at the World Court heard the perspectives of tens of millions of God-fearing Christians worldwide who stand with the Jewish people’s 4,000-year-old claim and connection to the Land of Israel.
“It would not be just or fair for the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to be allowed to present their shameful annihilist view on the very existence of Israel, while an even larger global Christian constituency was being ignored,” Parsons continued.
Andrew Tucker, director general of The Hague Initiative for International Cooperation, an NGO that fights the misuse of international law to delegitimize the State of Israel, said, “From a legal and political point of view, the court’s ruling will be devastating for Israel.
“But it will also undermine the court’s legitimacy. And instead of de-escalating the [Israeli-Palestinian] conflict it is likely to make an agreed upon solution less likely than ever.”
I am proud to support Israel and their Biblical right to exist and to live in peace. Look to the happenings in the Middle East, especially Israel to see which direction the world is headed. There is no more important barometer to the sign of the times than the state and affairs of Israel. Rh

A former Palestinian sniper turned Christian believes revival will break out in Gaza and thousands will come to Christ after the end of the Israel-Hamas war.
Taysir “Tass” Abu Saada, a former aide to the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, recently told CBN News’ Global Lane that God’s Holy Spirit is already changing Palestinian hearts through dreams and visions.
“Many Muslims are looking for an alternative to Islam,” he said. “My team is, naturally, sharing Christ. So we are looking at a good revival going on already in the Gaza Strip.”
It has been 104 days since Hamas terrorists carried out the savage massacre of hundreds of Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, marking the start of the Israel-Hamas War.
And many Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip have been caught in the cross-hairs. Evidence has shown how Hamas has prevented evacuations of Palestinian civilians, keeping them in harm’s way and even using them as civilian shields against Israeli attacks that are only intended to target terrorists.
As a result, the Hamas-run government of Gaza claims more than 24,000 people have been killed there since the war began, and thousands more are injured or presumed dead.
But Saada believes good can come out of the destruction and pain.
“Despite the destruction that is taking place, I believe God has a purpose to get the Palestinians in Gaza (to) wake up and look at a different alternative to what they believe,” he explained.
Let us pray for revival among the people of Gaza. Rh
