This September, Palestinians will attempt to push a resolution declaring a Palestinian state through the U.N. John Bolton, who knows his way around the U.N., has some thoughts on the matter: 
Recognizing “statehood” does not mean U.N. membership, but it would nonetheless be a major Palestinian success. A resolution recognizing a Palestinian “state” could also declare its boundary to be the 1967 borders (in actuality, merely the 1949 armistice lines), with or without President Obama’s caveat about “agreed upon swaps” of land.
The obvious Palestinian objective is to remove the issues of statehood and boundaries from the realm of bilateral negotiations with Israel, making them fait accompli.
Meanwhile, expecting large scale demonstrations and possible violence surrounding the vote, Israel is preparing for the worst. September, and the months leading up to it, will be a critical time for the Jewish state. Stay tuned — and keep the prayers coming.
What do you think?

I am so concerned about Isarel and worry about her safety, I pray for her protection, but I also know our great Creater God loves and protects Isarel. This is a comforting truth.

The UN is known to be anti semetic. The members, including our own Ambassador, are falling all over themselves to lavish praise on the Palestinians, a people who have vowed to exterminate the Jewish race. Tomorrow we celebrate D-Day to overthrow the same tyranny being leashed again against Israel. This time we need to be as strong as 1967 and resist any attempt by any nation to unseat the Israelies. Golda would have wanted it and she is watching.
7:40 pm
I stand with Israel, God bless you and he WILL keep you. I will always pray for God’s blessings to be upon you.

The Lord has chosen Jerusalem.
Psalm 132:13 “For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired [it] for his habitation.”
Have you ever noticed how Jerusalem is everything but what it’s name means? Jerusalem = city of Peace
This is because it is the land that the Lord has chosen and the devil is using those in which he has deceived within this world to make war with His desired dwelling place.
Those that study their Bible’s know that this is what God said would happen…
Zechariah 12: 2-3 “Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”
Those that support the peace of Israel are also apart of Israel. We are all spiritually connected and must pray for our brethren.

I lived in Israel. Israel will survive and keep it’s borders because everybody in the world needs the innovation in medical, military and business technology. Besides, they have a ton of oil and they are sure to get it on the market sooner than later. Lots of countries admire and work with Israel and just don’t advertise it much. India and Japan are two that come to mind. And look what they have accomplished since 1948. They are super smart and wired for survival. However,we all need to send money whenever possible and of course, pray pray pray because the spiritual energy that we are sending them with our money and our prayers is very re-vitalizing.

My thoughts are not just mine, they are fact if you have any beleif in God at all. There is nothing in God’s word, about any palestinian state, or the palestinians having any part of the promised land. I do not beleive that this piece of fantasy is ever going to fly for very long, if at all, because God has said in his own word, that he will punish those that give away his land, which is one of the reasons that Barack Obama, is so dangerous right along with a few other U.S. presidents. They will, I am afraid, bring God’s wrath down on us because of their meddling and mouthiness with Israel’s business. These people have big ideas and huge egos and meddle in other people’s business, until they begin to beleive their own lies. That is when they begin to become control freaks. They have no real power over you as a country. Mr. Netanyahu, is doing a great job in dealing with Obama and I do not for a minute beleive that he will let him get away with anything, because he truly has the best interest of his country at heart. Back him up in it.
10:22 am
You are so very right. May we pray every day for Isarel to our mighty God who watches over His people and give thanks to Him for His mighty power to save
7:57 am
God will protect Israel and Jerusalem. Jesus is coming back to rule from Jerusalem!!
7:49 am
America is great beacuse it supports Israel. We must stand with our bothers in Israel. We are a Judeo Christian society threats against them is a threat against us. If we turn our backs on them now we will follow the many nations that have fallen because of their treatment of Israel. Let’s stand up for our values and our faith. We are a mighty force with God at our side we are nothing without God. We must remember what made us great and get back to our values.
10:31 pm
As a Christian I have long supported the Jews, knowing they are God’s chosen people. My heart aches for Israel and reviles her persecutors. I feel a time of great trial is coming, but I will be standing with Israel. God will guard His own.
10:07 pm
God gave Israel to the jewish people, his chosen people. God made Israel, men made palestine. The land belongs to the jews, the UN has no right to take any part away from them. I am a Christian and I stand with Israel.
9:17 pm
Clinton,Bush,and Obama claim to be christian,yet none of the three understand that Jerusalem will be occupied by the Jews after september and after that.i wish the U.S.could have a great leader like Netanyahu.
8:57 pm
I stand with God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and his people Israel.
Take notice:
Goliath who represent his people, the Philistines, said an oath: “If he is able to fight and kill me, we will become your subjects; but if I overcome him and kill him, you will become our subjects and serve us.” The God of Israel is Witness to this event. And He will makesure that Philistine(Palestinians) will be subjects too Israel. Like it or not its still taking place to this present day.
It will never take place because God will make sure of it…
Praise God Almighty and his Son Yeshua
6:25 pm
pray we can protect Israel they just want peace. My family is american indian why not give us back our border? un haven’t you done enough damage to our and every other country maybe it time for you to
3:10 pm
I would just like to point out that arabs who support a palestinian state not only defy the true God of the the bible by trying to devide up the land of Israel (Joel 3:2) but they defy there own god of quran too. Sura 17: 100-104 confirms that God gave the land to the children of Israel. Maybe they should study what their quran actually teaches before they start screaming “allahu akhbar” while calling for the destruction of the state of Israel. God Bless Israel until the return of the Jesus the messiah.
12:56 pm
I pray for Isreal daily. As a Christian I understand the Jewish people are God’s chosen. The land was granted to them through Abraham and I stand behind their right to live there in peace. Stay strong and don’t let Jerusalem fall into Palestinian hands.
10:59 am
Do any of our leaders know the history of our Bible? This is all foretold. God told us in His forknowledge, not totally His will. Praying these so called “leaders” of America will desire to have their eyes opened and stop blindly leading in the flesh otherwise, they end of this nation will certainly be soon. We are slowly desolving.
10:56 am
The UN has no right to do this. I stand with the fuffillment of Bible Prophecy, and the Jewish people, and the world for Chist Yeshewa of Yerlusalm. In these remaining days, Heavenly father ABBA we pray “Lead us under the protection of your body, and for Israel(Jerlusalm Asspecially.) and people that stand for you and your protection. Gather up Israel, and the gentiles under your carcass(Body/ ings Of Eagles.) So Be IT!
10:54 am
Palestine does not want to discuss borders. They want the whole area and Israel dead! Israel wants her home land. He statehood recognized. Her borders secured. Arab-Palestineans will never agree. Israel must fight and America must stand by her!
2:43 pm
This is exactly what I feel. They will never be satisfied.
And all the money the U.S. sent to Arafat never seemed to trickle down to the common people. They remained as poor, as they are today.
2:13 pm
A little rationality lifts the quality of the debate here. Thanks for cntoributnig!
10:32 am
