While Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Sudan are normalizing relations with Israel, the Islamic Republic of Iran remains determined to obliterate Israel, as the Palestinian Arabs and their allies have vowed to do since the birth of the modern state of Israel in 1948. Although the Palestinians claim to want a “two-state” solution, a single state that they would dominate is really the goal, as is made clear in the PLO Manifesto and the charters of various Palestinian groups.
Iran has spent billions on supporting the jihad against Israel (and against the West). Meanwhile, Turkey also poses a significant and increasing threat to Israel. A paper close to Erdogan once called for an Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) “army of Islam” to attack Israel. Erdogan recently hosted a large Hamas delegation, including wanted jihad terrorists who murdered Israelis. Erdogan and Khamenei are just the latest examples of a long history of Islamic antisemitism.
“Iran’s Khamenei: Muslim nations reject ‘humiliation’ of compromise with Israel,” Times of Israel, October 21, 2020:
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei lashed out at the idea of Muslim nations compromising with Israel, calling it a “humiliation,” and issued an ominous warning to nations seeking to normalize ties with the Jewish state.
“Muslim nations will never accept the humiliation of compromising with the Zionist regime,” Khamenei tweeted Tuesday.
In recent months, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain became the first Arab nations to establish relations with Israel since Egypt in 1979 and Jordan in 1994. Israeli and American officials have expressed hope that other Gulf Arab countries will soon follow suit, with relations based on mutual commercial and security interests and shared enmity toward Iran.
In his tweet, Khamenei targeted US foreign policy attempts to bridge the gap between Muslim nations and Israel in the absence of a formal agreement between Israel and the Palestinians. “If the US thinks they can solve the region’s problem in this way, they are wrong,” he said.
In a seeming warning to other Muslim nations that may normalize ties with Israel, Khamenei said, “The status of any regime that negotiates with the usurping Zionist regime will be shaken before its nation.”…
“The UAE betrayed the world of Islam, the Arab nations, the region’s countries, and Palestine,” he said. “The treason will not last for long.”….

The whole concept of any muslim peace deal with Jews demands complete ignorance of the basic teaching of islam and denial of its fundamental practice of lying whenever advantage can be obtained over an infidel.
Anyone who proposes to change the rules of islam is a reformer or apostate, both of which are subject to the death penalty by any person in a position to carry it out, or the person making the “reform” proposal is lying. Mohammed promised a community of Jews safe passage if they would abandon their weapons and fortified village; only to slaughter the men and take the women and children as slaves when they were exposed, setting the example for all muslims ever after.
Delusion of reprieve may be necessary for daily survival when in a Nazi death camp; but it is not necessary now when many other alternatives are available. (Viktor Frankl, Man’s Search for Meaning).
Any person reading here who does not understand this can get some very useful information by reading a few hours in any one of 3 excellent books.(There are without reasonable question many more.) Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam, by our host, Robert Spencer, The Unfinished Battle, by Mark Gabriel, and The Abridged Koran, edited and commented by Bill Warner.
With total apology offered for my being crude, recall the line spoken with one of the most perfect voices ever on a screen by actor John Vernon in Clint Eastwood’s Outlaw Josey Wales, “We gotta sayin’ in Missouri senator, ‘Don’t piss down my back and tell me it’s rainin’.”
Please do not let this phony good news fool you into believing a lie.
Walter Sieruk says
Maybe Ayatollah Khamenei may right ,for once, As in when he said that the Muslims nations will never truly accept the right of existence of the Jewish State of Israel. Of course this is my paraphrase of what Khamenei said.
The point is the since the violent militant jihadists cannot and will not be reasoned with , not mater how many facts they might be given , they won’t change aggressive vicious hostile ways. So they will have to be defeat by brute force
Therefore is the following essay
To give some Bible based information with authorized Islamic literature also taken into account and yet not to go into detail and that state that this is a theory of Bible prophecy and not a complete prophecy fact. This is what might happen. This awful and terrible conflict in the twenty -first century is part of the war between the Judo- Christian West and the Islamic East.
The Mahdi will arise in the Middle East he will appear a wonderful man to many people, in reality he will be wicked man and will be so very deceitful and lying to he will seem, very much, like a good righteous and rightly guided man who will make a short and false “peace” in the Middle East. The Mahdi with have a partner who will be the false “jesus” of Islam. This Islamic ”jesus” will give Christian’s a choice , which is convert to Islam or die by beheading, this is the Koranic way to killing non-Muslims, as in 47:4. Those vicious murders of Christians in the future are predicted in the Bible. As seen in Revelation 20:4.
Furthermore in Israel the Mahdi “shall divide the land” Daniel 11:39. [K.J.V.] between the Jews and Muslims and the Mahdi will also by many deceiving lying signs and wonders, will unify Shi ‘ite and Sunni Islam together common goal destroying the State of Israel ,once and for all. The Mahdi will then take the all the military force of Islam with Satanic intention of totally destroying the Jewish State, one and for all. The when the Second Coming of real Jesus will occur .This is at the Battle of Armageddon where the final and complete defeat of the Mahdi, along with false ”jesus,” and his Islamic military forces. After the great Victory there will be then the total destruction of Islam. As found in the Bible in, for example, Ezekiel chapter 37 and 38. Zechariah Chapter 12 and then 14:9-21 well as in Revelation 19:11-21.
There is an Christian Arab pastor ,Michael Youssef who had written two well researched and informative books about the Islamic messiah called the Mahdi the are END TIMES AND THE SECRET OF THE MAHDI also the book entitled JESUS , JIHAD AND PEACE Furthermore, another Christian author on the topic of the Mahdi and prophecy is other than pastor Youssef is Joel Richardson who wrote THE ISLAMIC ANTICHRIST :THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE BEAST and the other book entitled THE MIDEAST BEAST : THE SCRIPTURAL CASE FOR THE ISLAMIC ANTICHRIST.
Westman says
Imagine the entire resources of a nation dedicated to the annihilation of another. Imagine the stagnation it produces and the lives that are wasted. Now, as “leader”, imagine nations, which you thought supported your intentions, begin friendly relations with your target of destruction. Imagine how your citizens will begin viewing the fruitless way their lives have been used and brutalized by your Regime in pursuit of your vanishing dream, your illusion. They have lost much. Will they come for you?
Frank Anderson says
W., worldwide muslims outnumber Jews by approximately 100 to 1, just as Germans outnumbered Jews in Germany before WWII. What does it take to understand the blind, unalterable hatred of Jews that has been taught and practiced for 1400 years is not going to be wished away by air-headed people who refuse to learn?
Clive Delmonte says
Mr Khamenei doesn’t seem to grasp that his ravings are driving Arab states into a new camp with Israel so that they can mutually protect each other against him and his fellow raver Erdogan.
Vladimir says
This whole situation puts Sunni Muslims in an interesting position. If they are more pious Sunni Muslims, they see the spectacle of their fellow Muslims normalizing relations with Israel contrary to Islam, and of seeing the true Islamic doctrine against the Jews being defended by what Sunnis see as a heretical Sect, the Twelver Shia Muslims.
Fred van de Bunt says
Speaking for all the Muslim nations, this old man forgot to mention he has God on his side too, and with that all the armies in the universe are backing him to, not to mention all the fairy tail fairies.
mike Stevens says
According to this expert, “Muslim nations will never accept the humiliation of compromising with the Zionist regime”.
Ignoring the minor detail that, er, FIVE Muslim nations already HAVE willingly accepted that “humiliation”, which they don’t see as a humiliation at all!
Frank Anderson says
Mr. Stevens, I suggest that it is really important that you read the story about Mohammed’s false promise of safe passage, and understand the islamic doctrine of lying whenever advantage can be obtained. False promises and deception are core principles of islam from the beginning and remain so today.
A muslim’s promise to an infidel has meaning only so long as it serves the muslim’s goals. That is one of the “final, perfect, complete and unchangeable” teachings of islam which can be reformed or modified only on pain of death for apostasy.
That is in spite of a number of changes in their fundamental document in the course of its collection. One of the reasons the document is published in order of the longest chapter first is to obscure the fact that many “final. perfect complete and unchangeable” pronouncements were changed in the course of its writing, but have since been locked into the present version after the death of Mohammed, its author.
Bill Warner exposes vividly the many changes through his editing and comments in The Abridged Koran. I ask and humbly suggest that you do some reading to see for yourself.
