Jerusalem, the Heavy Stone

It is difficult not to discern in our time the “last days” announced by the prophets. More than ever, Jerusalem appears as “the heavy stone,” according to the word of Zechariah: “I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all peoples; all who lift it will surely injure themselves” (Zech. 12:3).

This word is strikingly relevant today. All nations are concerned—not only Israel’s declared enemies. The “wound” does not come from any aggression on Jerusalem’s part, but from the persistent attempt of the nations to redefine or control it. In reality, they are the ones who wound themselves.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Tuesday that Moscow had still not seen any evidence that Iran was developing nuclear weapons, amid what he said was "essentially a war" ongoing in the Middle East.

Lavrov told Brunei's foreign minister during talks in Moscow: "We still see no evidence that Iran was developing nuclear weapons, which was the main, if not the only, justification for the war."

La venta de F-35 a Turquía garantiza una nueva guerra contra Israel

El presidente estadounidense Donald Trump puede creer que la venta de aviones de guerra furtivos F-35 a Turquía ayudará al país a estrechar lazos con Estados Unidos a expensas de Rusia. La realidad, sin embargo, es que al proporcionar tan sofisticados aviones de combate a un país que apoya a los terroristas de Hamas -y cuyo presidente recientemente dijo que «Israel no tendrá más remedio que arrodillarse ante Turquía»- Trump no hace sino avivar las llamas de una futura guerra destinada a destruir Israel.

La problemática relación de Trump con Ankara se remonta a su primer mandato en la Casa Blanca, cuando retiró a Turquía de la participación en el programa multinacional F-35 después de que comprara el supuesto sistema ruso de defensa antiaérea de última generación S-400, que fue diseñado con el propósito expreso de derribar aviones de guerra F-35.
