The Israeli Prime Minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, stood at the site in Germany where one million Jews were killed during World War II, the Auschwitz death camp, and said that the world cannot stand by and allow evil to cause massive death - they must stop evil in due time.
It was clear that the Israeli Prime Minister was comparing the Nazi regime of Adolf Hitler during World War II in Germany to Iran's President Ahmadinejad who has repeatedly stated that Israel must be wiped off the face of the Earth and her name be forgotten forever. This, even as the Iranian President is advancing Iran's nuclear program to produce a nuclear weapon of mass destruction.
Jimmy's Prophetic Prospective on the News
The call by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to stop evil in due time, a reference to Iranian President Ahmadinejad's efforts to wipe Israel off the Earth, will not really affect the next holocaust which will be worse than the last one according to Bible prophecy.
The radical rhetoric of Iranian President Ahmadinejad calling for the Jewish state of Israel to be wiped off the Earth has caused Israel to place Iran as the number one threat to the Jewish state. Prime Minister Netanyahu told me that there is a difference between Hitler and Ahmadinejad. Hitler started a war to produce a weapon of mass destruction. Ahmadinejad is developing a weapon of mass destruction so he can start a war.
The ancient Jewish prophet Ezekiel did write about a war that Iran would be a part of in an effort to wipe Israel off the Earth (Ezekiel 38:5). That war, the Gog-Magog war, will end with most of the Islamic world being destroyed (Ezekiel 39:2). However, that will not be the end of a time when millions of Jews will be once again slaughtered. This next holocaust takes place during the seven year Tribulation period and especially in the last half of that time as referred to by Jeremiah as the time of Jacob's Trouble (Jeremiah 30:7). During this future day of judgment, 2 out of every 3 Jews will be murdered and that means that 8 million Jews will be killed (Zechariah 13:8).
My prayer is that Jewish people forewarned will turn to the Messiah Jesus Christ before these Bible prophecies are fulfilled.
