What is really happening in the Middle East?

The media isn't telling us the truth!  The Middle East is in a spiritual battle driven by Islam.  Over 500 million youth are unemployed and poor.  The battle is being waged in mosques, madrasas, and by mullahs.  The center of gravity is the bazaar.  Who is fueling this battle?  The New Age secular, Liberal Left media in the U.S. run by ideologues from the 1960's revolution is in the forefront.  It kills the soul while the body is left to the jihadists.

For example, CNN might go to the Palestinian Authority and request they plan their riot at 11:00 a.m. so it could be up-linked for the evening news.  In Somalia, I saw ABC employees living in a warlord's villa, protected by the owner's henchmen.  I saw CNN in Lebanon throw a baby doll into the ashes while telling a woman to go to the bombed house and cry, "They killed my child," simply to get a poignant shot.  They are lying to us — and Israel is in the crosshairs!

At the heart of liberalism is a belief that evil does not really exist.  The desire is to push the Bible, Israel, and moral clarity out of the way.  Anyone who dares contradict the Liberal Media is considered evil, a racist, and a bigot.  The dumbing down of America is in full swing, all in the name of political correctness and New Age godless globalism.

A former U.S. chief of staff told me that the media determines when wars are fought and when they are stopped.  The media wants to use democratic ideals to overthrow dictators; they want to define the terms of the debate.  That plan was accomplished in Iran; the Shah went from friend of the West to being portrayed as Satan incarnate.  The same thing has now been done to Mubarak.

Are the demonstrators radicals?  No, they rarely are.  In Iran they came only to overthrow a monarch.  The radicals, however, were gaming the system and used the innocent demonstrators to achieve their objectives.

Who is behind the upheaval in Egypt?  Is it al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, or the Muslim Brotherhood?  It's all about Shariah law which considers an Islam state ruled by the Koran a democracy.

Why is Egypt so important?  It is ground zero in the Muslim world for fighting terrorists and supporting Israel.  If it can be taken over with its 82-plus million people, the virus can be spread to the entire Muslim world, and then to the West.  Terrorists are waiting to turn Egypt into another Afghanistan.

What part is Iran playing?  Its leaders are spending a fortune and have Revolutionary Guard agents in Egypt as do Hamas and Hezbollah.  The terrorists are working the crowds as only trained rabble-rousers can do.

What can be done to stop it?

Israel is the key.  It is the only stable regime in the Middle East, but for how long?  President Obama plans to appease Arab rage by supporting the UN plan for Palestinian statehood in September with an Islamic capital in East Jerusalem.  It would become the forty-fifth Islamic capital.

You are the watchman God has placed on the walls of Jerusalem.  "I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent, And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth." (Isaiah 62:6-7)

Many of the Jews in Jerusalem have been brought back to Israel through the hands of Gentiles in fulfillment of prophecy, "Thus says the Lord GOD: 'Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations, And set up My standard for the peoples; They shall bring your sons in their arms, And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders...' " (Isaiah 49:22)

Jerusalem is God's delight, His royal diadem, His firstborn, His chosen, His beloved.  He declares, "For he who touches you touches the apple (pupil) of His eye." (Zechariah 2:8)  Jerusalem is the only city where God has promised to prosper those who love it.  (Psalm 122:6)

Throughout the Muslim world, violent demonstrations erupted as protestors spat, shook their fists and screamed the word "nakba" (catastrophe).  They demand that Jerusalem be taken from the Jews to be the next Islamic capital.  While the enemies of the Jewish people cursed them, you still have the opportunity to bless the Children of Israel.  "I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curses thee." (Genesis 12:3)

Modeh ani l'faneykha, melekh chai vekayam; rabbah emunatekha.

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Michael Evans

P.S.  After much prayer, we have designated the month of June as "Bless Jerusalem Month."  Your gifts this month will go to bless the Holy City of Jerusalem — elderly Holocaust victims, terror victims, Jewish refugees living in poverty, and much more.  I am asking every Jerusalem Prayer Team member this month to be part of this "Bless Jerusalem Month."  We are praying that at least 3,000 will respond to this urgent call to touch the hearts and lives of hurting people in Jerusalem.  So far 500 loving hearts have responded to this plea for help.  Will you join with us today?  Please join me in praying this prayer right now.  Beloved Lord, I ask You to bless those who bless Israel today according to Genesis 12:1-3 and Psalm 122:6 that declare that those who bless Jerusalem shall prosper.

At this critical hour, it is more important than ever that Believers stand with Israel.  The name of every person who contributes to the Bless Jerusalem campaign will be engraved in the Holy City.  Those names will be there until the Messiah appears in His glory:  "When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory."  (Psalm 102:16)

Your support of the Jerusalem Prayer Team makes it possible for us to continue to rally Believers to stand with Israel, to speak out to leaders of our nation and the world in defense of Israel, and to meet urgent humanitarian needs of the Jewish people.  Thank you so much for being part of the team.

I will be in the Holy City the latter part of June to present your gifts to the Jewish people.  I also will be meeting with the Mayor of Jerusalem and with the Prime Minister.
