On Wednesday, July 17, 2024, the Israeli lawmakers at the Knesset in Jerusalem voted by a wide margin (68-9) that they will reject the establishment of a Palestinian State on any part of the land west of the Jordan River.
The new policy statement of the Israeli government is as follows:
“The Israeli Knesset opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state on any piece of land west of the Jordan River,” the resolution reads. “The existence of a Palestinian state in the heart of Israel will pose an existential threat to the State of Israel and its citizens, will further extend the Israel-Palestinian Arab conflict and be a source of destabilization for the entire region.”
“It will be only a matter of time before Hamas takes over such a Palestinian state turning it into a base for radical Islamic terrorism in full alignment with the Iranian regime that aims to eradicate the State of Israel.”
“Supporting Palestinian statehood would reward terrorism and serve to encourage Hamas and its supporters. Israel’s enemies will interpret it as the victorious outcome of the massacre perpetrated on October 7th and a precursor to the conquest of jihadist Islamism of the entire Middle East.”
Obviously, as indicated by the prophetic Scriptures concerning the last days, this will bring the Jewish state of Israel into direct conflict with its Arab neighbors and the entire world. This is a very significant decision that will catapult the entire world into the final conflict with the God of Israel over the Promised Land (Joel 3:2).
