Was the destruction in Kuwait caused by a patriot missile?

No. The destruction and fires at Kuwait International Airport and the Ali al-Salem Airbase were the result of a deliberate barrage of drones and missiles launched by Iran.The conflicting claims regarding the incident are:The U.S. Military: U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) strongly denied that any malfunctioning U.S. interceptor caused the damage. Officials officially stated that Iran struck the civilian airport deliberately in a "calculated and unjustified attack".The Iranian Government: Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed that they did not target the airport. Instead, they alleged the terminal's destruction was caused by a malfunctioning American Patriot missile that failed to intercept Iranian targets.The attacks took place during a major escalation in the Gulf, in which Iran targeted U.S. military sites in retaliation for earlier U.S. strikes in Iran.Updates and detailed reporting on the incident are available via Al Jazeera and Middle East Eye.

is Iran attempting to blame the USA?

Yes, Iran is actively attempting to shift the blame to the United States.The Iranian government and its state media are using the following narratives to deflect responsibility:The Patriot Missile Claim: Iran's Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) asserts that a malfunctioning U.S. Patriot missile defense system, rather than an Iranian weapon, destroyed the airport terminal.The Provocation Argument: Iranian officials argue that their overall military actions are purely defensive responses to what they label as illegal U.S. aggression and strikes on Iranian territory.Information Warfare: Independent geopolitical analysts view Iran's statements as a deliberate disinformation campaign designed to minimize international backlash for striking civilian infrastructure.
No way, the IRGC's official propaganda simply just lied? Oh right, they're a literal pagan cult who formed their government around the premise that their grand poobah can talk to the dead. Imagine that, the literal necromancers that started the war by massacring tens of thousands of civillians and tried to lie about it, simply just lied again.
 
For starters, you need an accurate definition of "Zionism" other than the one rattling around in your head.
As for your "religion", if it does NOT rightly understand Zion, its the wrong one.

I won't bore people with my definition of "Zionism" because I think most understand what I refer to when I use the word.
If there is confusion in my head about who is (or is not) a Jew and what the benefits should be, I am sure that I am not the only one.
What should we do with all this confusion?
We could go to the Old Testament, but humans have well and truly proved that they are too carnally minded to understand it as God intended.
It makes a lot of sense to me that we should go to the teachings of Jesus in the New Testament, because He not only can teach the OT correctly but is the King of the Jews, and therefore the highest authority on the matter.
 
We get this in depth, scripture included analysis AND the response is ALWAYS" That is fulfilled or you are out of your mind."

The "other side" has NOTHING.
Evidently willful denial, intentional obfuscation, pushing false narratives, promoting conspiracy theories, and disseminating enemy agitprop takes precedence over conscientious legit well reasoned and biblically supported exegesis and the truths this effort yields.

Not a good look for the "other side". But then again, as we both know, this is their standard operating procedure.
 
Newton studied all of the Jewish writings (e.g, Talmud, kabbalah) that predicted such a return. He didn't get it strictly from the bible
Download Jesus is Coming by Blackstone (1878) on Kindle. Read Chapter 15. It is a great evangelistic tool that supports Bible prophecy. Worked on me. There really is no explaining Israel's return to the same spot after not existing since AD70.

CHAPTER XV.

Israel Is to Be Restored. But, perhaps, you say: “I don’t believe the Israelites are to be restored to Canaan, and Jerusalem rebuilt.” Dear reader! have you read the declarations of God’s word about it? Surely nothing is more plainly stated in the Scriptures.

The people existed, the land existed, the eschatology existed, so it's really not unexplainable.
What i mean is to an unbeliever which was the context of my post. Evangelism which you missed.

“In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.” Jer. 3:18. “And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, EVEN ALL OF IT, and the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be builded.” Ezek. 36:10. Ezekiel was directed to take two sticks, representing Judah and Joseph, which should be joined and become one stick in his hand, and when the people enquired what it meant, he was directed to say unto them: “Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: and I will make them ONE NATION in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them ALL; and they shall be NO MORE two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.” Ezek. 37:15-22. At the first restoration they returned to be overthrown and driven out again. But in the second, they shall return to remain, no more to go out. They shall be exalted and dwell safely, and the Gentile nations shall flow unto them,

Mr Blackstone was a carnal man who didn't understand the spiritual reality that all of that began to be fulfilled at Pentecost when Israel and Judah were reunited as one nation under one lord, to which the nations have flowed for the past nearly 2000 years.

Your assertions are without evidence.
Biblical evidence that spans the Bible cover to cover says that the futurists views are unfortunately correct.

He was a follower of Darby, so that's enough evidence right there.
False assertion without evidence.

And as I have proven innumerable times, the predominant purpose and reason for the Second Coming is the full and final repentance, redemption and recommissioning of the ethnic Sons of Jacob (aka the daughter of Zion, the Nation Israel) to priestly service. This to fulfill that task and duty which they earlier failed to discharge in good faith.

Everything else that happens as regards the Second Coming of Messiah is incidental.

Oh and BTW, Christ is the "netzer", which, apart from ruling over His people Israel, is bereft of significance.

Isa 11:1 - And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:

The believing remnant of Israel was faithful and became the new nation that will never perish. The unbelieving part was broken off and discarded

Will the the ignorant and babes in Christ around here be dazzled by your one-liner tweets bereft of expansive exegetical proofs?

Not when there are biblically literate knowledgable sober minded sincerely concerned people here to intervene to prevent this from happening.
