You make an important point that there is a bigger picture to all of what has happened. This is not just about some Jewish / Arab / American conflict. Nevertheless, you are not saying what you really think. Your speech is veiled. You mention a man in Rev. 13 quoted above. In your opinion, will this man be: 1. A Jewish "peacemaker" 2. A Muslim "peacemaker" 3. An American "peacemaker" I put peacemaker in quotes because he is actually a destroyer, but he represents himself as a peacemaker. If I had to guess, I think you would pick 3, but I personally think it will be 2. Am I reading between your lines correctly? :-) Peace be with you.
