“… from 1967-1989 out of 865 resolutions in the Security Council and General Assembly of the UN, 526 were against Israel.” (Dave Hunt) Dave also mentioned that (at the time of his statement), Jews were only 1/1000th of the population of the world.

Why does the U. N. have this obsession with Israel? Could this have anything to do with the nations joining together against Israel, as prophesied in the Hebrew Scriptures?

And why is it that so many of those who criticize, and are suspicious of, the U N, seem to support the U N when it comes to its antipathy toward Israel? Could the U N be right in this one thing while being wrong about all others?

For Zion’s sake I am not silent, and for Yerushalayim’s sake I do not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness and her deliverance as a lamp that burns. And the nations shall see your righteousness and all kings your esteem. And you shall be called by a new name which the mouth of haShem designates. And you shall be a crown of comeliness in the hand of haShem and a royal headdress in the hand of your Elohim. No longer are you called “Forsaken” and no longer is your land called “Deserted.” But you shall be called “my delight is in her” and your land “Married,” for haShem shall delight in you and your land be married.

For as a young man married a maiden, so shall your sons marry you. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your Elohim rejoice over you.

I have set watchmen on your walls, O Yerushalayim, all the day and all the night, continually, who are not silent. You who remember haShem, give yourselves no rest and give Him no rest till He establishes and till He makes Yerushalayim a praise in the earth. (From Isaiah 62)

And it shall be in the latter days that the mountain of haShem is established on the top of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills and all nations shall flow to it. And many peoples shall come and say, “Come and let us go up to the mountain of haShem, to the house of the God of Ya’akov and let Him teach us His ways and let us walk in His paths, for out of Zion comes forth the Torah and the Word of haShem from Yerushalayim.” Isaiah 2:2-3

“For look, in those days and at that time, when I turn back the captivity of Yehudah and Yerushalayim, then I shall gather all nations, and bring them down to the Valley of Yehoshaphat. And I shall enter into judgement with them there for My People, My inheritance Yisrael, whom they have scattered among the nations and they have divided up My land.” Joel 3:2

Mitsrayim [Egypt] shall become a ruin and Edom a ruin, a wilderness, because of violence done to the people of Yehudah, whose innocent blood they shed in their land. But Yehudah shall dwell forever and Yerushalayim to all generations. And I shall avenge their blood which I have not avenged. And haShem shall be dwelling in Zion. Joel 3:19-21

Dave Hunt on Israel:

“Indisputably, Israel is the major topic of biblical prophecy, just as it is of the daily news. The word "Israel" is found 2,565 times in 2,293 verses in the King James translation of the Bible, while "Jerusalem" is found 811 time in 764 verses....The conflict between tiny Israel and the vast coalition of Arab/Muslim nations arrayed against her is without question the most dangerous situation facing the world today. It is also the major subject of the Bible, in which are recorded in detail, two thousand to three thousand years before they occurred, the events leading to today's Middle East debacle.

Nine times God calls Himself the "God of Abraham...Isaac...and Jacob" From these patriarchs the Jews have descended. Yahweh, is called "the God of Israel" 203 times—and it is to Israel that He gave the Promised Land.” —Dave Hunt in Judgment Day—Islam, Israel, and the Nations, TBC, 2006

Ryan said he thinks israel has the right to exist, but not on the land God gave them, which he claims is “occupied” by them. I’m wondering exactly where he would suggest that israel exist. Antarctica, maybe?

I’d also suggest that Ryan find another place to live since America could more accurately be described as occupied territory than Israel, which has documented history as the land of Israel.

On October 16, 2023, I received an e-mail notification about an interview with Ryan, which I postponed for about 5 months to watch, since I knew of his antipathy toward Israel. I watched it last week and wasn’t surprised at what he said.

In this newer interview, he lays his opinions out even more clearly. Israel has a right to exist … somewhere … but not in Israel. Methinks he might as well have said Israel can exist on some other planet, but not here on earth.

“we cannot recognize the Jewish people...”

..Pope Pius X (in 1904)

“the danger that frightens us the most is that of the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine.” Cardinal Pietro Gasparri (in 1919)

“There is no axiom in history to substantiate the necessity of a people returning to a country they left nineteen centuries before. If a ‘Hebrew Home’ is desired, it would not be too difficult to find a more fitting territory than Palestine. With an increase in the Jewish population there, grave, new problems would arise.”

(Pope Pius XII letter to FDR in 1939)

From past interviews I’ve heard of Ryan, I should not surprised at what he said here, but I think his hostility toward Israel is even more extreme than I expected. Some of the things Ryan Cristián said are completely antagonistic and antithetical to the Bible. Others are historically inaccurate. I guess that’s what happens when a person’s biases take precedence over their mind and the facts.

I wonder what would happen if Israel took some hostages in return…

134 hostages. Day 172

This interview prompted me to look for my copy of Israel, Islam, and Armageddon, a video put out by Dave Hunt. It also reminded me of an article by Dave Hunt that I looked for recently: https://www.thebereancall.org/content/judgment-day-approaching?sapurl=Lys5MjZkL2xiL2xpLyt3dm44dWs4P2JyYW5kaW5nPXRydWUmZW1iZWQ9dHJ1ZSZyZWNlbnRSb3V0ZT1hcHAud2ViLWFwcC5saWJyYXJ5Lmxpc3QmcmVjZW50Um91dGVTbHVnPSUyQnd2bjh1azg=

I just found that Israel, Islam, and Armageddon is now available free online. It is on The Berean Call website as well as YouTube:
