Regime change is inevitable, Moosh-taba might even just be dead already and they've been playing Weekend At Bernie's. The problem is Pezeshkian is still alive, regime change will be bad because they left him alive. He already showed his hand when he reformed the cult.Trumps offer is basically unconditional surrender.

Gentiles in the Old Testament, were saved by faith in the promised Messiah rather than by works or by becoming ethnically Jewish. They were saved by God's grace through faith, anticipating the same Savior as Old Testament saints.All of these verses explain to us how the Old Testament promises of God apply to people who are descended from Abraham according to the flesh. This means that the church does not "replace" Israel, but rather they are "grafted into" the promises. Without any doubt Jews and religious leaders were "broken off" like branches cut from this tree. But God makes it clear, that is not permanent, God can graft them back in at a future date.
No one on either side of this debate has an issue with Christians being children of Abraham according to the faith. The debate is whether or not the covenant made with Abraham and His descendants, and the covenant made to David and His descendants is eternal or if God annulled those promises. Central to that debate are many prophecies that seem to make no sense at all if you spiritualize these promises and eliminate descendants of Israel altogether.
At the heart of this debate is whether or not Israel being made a nation in one day and Israelites walking out of the holocaust like dry bones and into the land of Israel is a fulfillment of prophecy.
Muslims telling lies? How surprising. Not. We had an Iman telling the credulous and gullible that Muslims can coexist with any religion. He said it straight faced. Never let facts get in the way.......... There are around 2 million Arabs in Israel, mostly Muslim. Jews have been driven out of virtually every Middle East nation and the very few Christians face death if they reveal themselves.
While God established a specific covenant with Israel, His grace was never strictly limited to them, and Gentile salvation was part of God’s plan from the start, as seen in the promise to Abraham that "all nations" would be blessed.
While Gentile believers in the OT were considered "strangers to the covenant of promise" (Ephesians 2:12), those who believed were integrated into the household of God, often adopting the faith of Israel.
Could not happen to a more deserving individual. Of course, there is no proof of this, just assertions.
Imagine if you will this man spending his days and nights sweating bullets wondering when exactly the Mossad bribes and informant network will achieve their inevitable ends.
Nobody is suggesting that a Gentile is a "son of Jacob", that definition refers to a specific ethnic group. But the "Israel of God" or "the elect of God" or "the Church, Body of Christ", these are all One and the same. There are no Jews or Gentiles in "the Israel of God". We're all One race.False. Never at any time in the Bible does God denote a gentile as "Israel", a son of Jacob.
In Romans 9, Paul is speaking of actual Israelite believers vs Israelite non-believers.
The term "spiritual Israel" is not found anywhere in Scripture.
And to cap this off, the New Covenant promises and blessings UNIQUE to the gentile Church and UNIQUE to the nation Israel are BOTH contained in the covenant made with Abraham. The Church enjoys spiritual union NOW, then the nation Israel will LATER, post-repentance per Hosea 6:1-2 and HUNDREDS of other passages.
And Acts 1:6-7 confirms that the kingdom WILL be restored to the Nation Israel inevitably.
From a linguistic standpoint, the Greek construction of the disciples' question and Jesus' subsequent answer strongly implies that the restoration of the kingdom is a certainty, even if the timing was withheld.
The precision of the Greek in Acts 1:6–7 provides three key grammatical markers that support the literal restoration of the nation:
1. The Verb Apokathistanis (Restore)
The disciples use the word ἀποκαθιστάνεις (apokathistaneis).
The Meaning: This is a compound of apo (back again) and kathistēmi (to set in order). In classical and Septuagint Greek, it specifically refers to reconstitution or returning something to its original, rightful state.
The Implication: You cannot "restore" something that never existed. By using this word, the disciples are referring to the specific, national, Davidic kingdom of the Old Testament. If Jesus intended to replace Israel with a "spiritual church," this would be a "replacement" or "new creation," not a restoration.
2. The Use of "Israel" (tō Israēl)
The disciples specify the beneficiary of this restoration: τῷ Ἰσραήλ (tō Israēl).
The Specificity: In the New Testament, when "Israel" is used without qualification in a historical or political context, it refers to the ethnic/national progeny of Jacob.
Jesus’ Non-Correction: Most tellingly, Jesus does not correct their terminology. He does not say, "You misunderstand; there is no kingdom for Israel." Instead, He addresses the chronology ("It is not for you to know times or seasons"). In logic, to dispute the timing of an event is to concede the reality of the event itself.
3. The Noun Chronos vs. Kairos (Times and Seasons)
In verse 7, Jesus says it is not for them to know the χρόνους (chronous) or καιρούς (kairous).
The Distinction: Chronos refers to chronological time (minutes, days, years), while kairos refers to "epochal" time or "the right moment."
The Fulfillment: By saying these times are "fixed by the Father's own authority," Jesus affirms that the "restoration" is a scheduled event on the Father’s calendar. If the restoration were never going to happen, there would be no "time or season" to keep secret.
Probably a lie. No one trusts the US anymore
Nobody not of faith is God's chosen people
I sure hope that the IRGC has a moment of clarity and sanity any time soon.
Iran Denies Trump Claims About Possible Deal Impacting Israel

Saudis are bristling and ready to retaliate.
US troops occupying Kharg Island would be sitting ducks to FPV drones. Duct taped RPG round or mortar shell on a FPV quadcopter drone delivered right to someone's door. These things have revolutionized warfare
What this is with Iran right now, is a fight to the death. Iran is not going to quit.
