Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz warned that action is needed to keep Iran at bay
While the U.S. and Iran have so far failed to agree on terms for a new nuclear agreement, Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz warned that the Islamic nation is just weeks away from having the necessary materials for a nuclear weapon.
Gantz tweeted the claim in Hebrew when posting about remarks he delivered at Israel‘s Reichman University. The Jerusalem Post reported on the speech, relaying that Iran currently produces uranium at an enrichment level of 20% while already having 60 kilograms of 60% enriched material. Uranium enriched at a 90% level is needed for a weapon.
“Iran continues to accumulate irreversible knowledge and experience in the development, research, production and operation of advanced centrifuges,” Gantz said during his address, stating that Iran is working on 1,000 new advanced centrifuges, including at an underground facility near Natanz.

Gantz also said that Iran has been keeping inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency from accessing their systems.
Gantz said a “multidimensional” international response is needed to prevent all out war with Iran.
“Today, the prices for tackling the Iranian challenge on the global and regional levels are higher than they were a year ago and lower than they will be within a year,” Gantz said.
The defense minister noted that Iran has been making a number of other improvements to their military capabilities, “including cruise missiles, surface-to-surface missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that have a range of thousands of kilometers.”
A nuclear Iran could pose an existential threat to Israel as Iran’s leadership has threatened to destroy the Jewish state.
Meanwhile. the Biden administration has been trying to enter into a new nuclear deal with Tehran, years after then-President Donald Trump withdrew from the international Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that critics said did not do enough to prevent an Iranian nuclear weapon in the long term or properly address their ballistic missile program.
Iran has been calling for the U.S. to remove their Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps from the State Department’s list of foreign terrorist organizations as part of any agreement. So far, the administration has resisted, as veterans, Gold Star families, and lawmakers in Washington, D.C. have warned not to do this.
At the same time, Iranian leadership faces pressure from its own people, who have been protesting in response to a floundering economy.
The protests began last week when the government slashed food subsidies on eggs, milk, chicken, and cooking oil leading to price rises of some 300%. Since then, protests have spread to many areas of the country and according to observers have taken on a much more anti-government current.
Protesters, showing no fear of retribution by the state security services have been heard shouting, “Death to Khamenei! Death to Raisi!” referring to Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who has promised to create jobs, lift sanctions, and rescue the economy.
Over the weekend ,reports said up to five people were killed following a crackdown by authorities. A semi-official government news agency put the number of dead from the protests at one according to the Associated Press. Source

Report: US To Participate in Israeli Simulation of Military Strike on Iran
The US military will participate in a major Israeli drill later this month simulating an airstrike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Israel’s Channel 13 reported on Tuesday. The drill, part of an exercise dubbed “Chariots of Fire,” will include the air-to-air refueling of Israeli fighter jets by US Air Force tanker planes as they simulate entering Iranian territory and carrying out repeated strikes. The unprecedented collaboration in such as drill is seen as a message to Iran that a military alternative exists if the long-stalled nuclear negotiations in Vienna do not result in an agreement that puts meaningful limits on Iran’s nuclear program.
Israel’s Kan TV News said dozens of Israeli fighter jets will take part in the exercise. A similar major drill that Israel conducted 10 years ago, when it was reported to be on the verge of launching a real attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, did not include US participation, the TV report said. Against the backdrop of this upcoming drill, Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz will meet with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin at the Pentagon in Washington on Thursday, and Gen. Michael Kurilla, head of the United States Central Command (CENTCOM), arrived in Israel on Tuesday for his first official visit.
On Tuesday, Gantz warned that “the price for tackling the Iranian challenge on a global or regional level is higher than it was a year ago and lower than it will be in a year.” The Israeli defense minister said Iran was just a “few weeks” away from amassing sufficient fissile material to build a bomb and was finishing the production and installation of 1,000 advanced centrifuges for enriching uranium. source

AFTER RUSSIA OPENS FIRE ON ISRAEL IN SYRIA, RABBIS CONSIDER POSSIBLE “GOG-MAGOG SCENARIO”
Brothers and sisters in Christ – this is BIG news coming out of the Middle East.
Ezekiel 38/39 war keeps coming into my mind. And with the news just a couple of days ago about Russia’s close encounter with Israeli aircraft, the pieces of this puzzle are rapidly falling into place.
PRAY PRAY PRAY!!!
MARANATHA!!
Oh, Geri, my heart is breaking. But we knew this was coming very soon. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, Brothers & Sisters. FATHER, may YOUR Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven, in JESUS’ Precious NAME.
AMEN!
Wow, thanks. Amir is the only source we trust for news about Israel.
Very stressing even though we know the End result. It is the “in between” that upsets me..I have been praying Geri and for all the remnant. Love you all.
Love you too, sweet sis
Pingback: ISRAEL AND WORLD NEWS UPDATES – TORAH AND TEMPLE INVESTIGATIONS
Ezekiel 38 is NOT the next war. Anyone with eyes and ears knows that the next war is Psalm 83.
MANY believe that Psalm 83 is an imprecatory prayer!!
And many believe most of it has been fulfilled. Ps 83 that is…
Amen
We know what the world’s response will be if Israel launches a preemptive strike. How close are we to God’s intervention?
I believe CLOSE…..If this is indeed Ezekiel 38-39 playing out……God WILL intervene for Israel!!
what a load of crap. Zionist/illuminati/satanic Israel is the problem. Jesus’s own words- Revelation 2:9 and Revelation 3:9. God destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD. Please understand what that means. God destroyed the temple and destroyed it again when they tried to rebuild it. God will not allow the temple to be rebuilt. Christians you are being fooled. Stop listening to the Talmudic fake jews.. STUDY YOUR BIBLE THIS IS THE GREAT DECEPTION.
Have you forgotten to read Romans 11???
“1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.” (Romans 11: 1-5)
Brian, do you know that our Savior Yeshua is a JEW???
Indeed please do!
If this were “Israel”, it would mean something. But since it is not, being that 97% of those residing in “Palestine” calling themselves Jews, do not possess a trace of Hebrew genetics, (according to “Jewish” genetic research). You should have need of concern. It means you have been DECEIVED by the devil, and his Offspring. You have been deceived because you never bothered to seek the truth, and trusted some preacher in a Leer Jet, or sitting on a throne with a crown – which is OPPOSITE what Jesus commanded His followers.
Two key elements exist in Scripture that you are IGNORANT of. “The iron mingled with the clay – they mingle themselves with the seed of man” written in Daniel, and “I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are the Synagogue of satan”, written in Revelation. If you do not know the history of the Khazars/”Name Stealers”, you do not know what you even support. This is the seed of the serpent, people, and you are too THICK to comprehend it. These are the Bolsheviks who murdered 100 Million Christians in Russia, that you never hear about. The Bolsheviks were Zionist Jews.
Just remember through all your ignorance – Jesus is the final sacrifice and “temple”. No other “temple” will ever be Ordained of God. It serves no purpose. So much for Ezekiel 38 being about a rebuilt temple, or God’s People. PARROTS never repeat what they never heard.
Jesus’ “ELECT” stand before his throne, from ALL NATIONS KINDREDS AND TONGUES.” Nothing mentioned about “Israel”, especially a FAKE ISRAEL and FAKE JEWS that you support.
Continue to be a DOLT, or wake up and find the truth. God destroyed the “temple” 2,000 years ago and broke His Covenant with the Jews. The veil was ripped from the top to the bottom, and a physical temple possesses no more purpose. They are not “chosen” for anything, except in your deluded, ignorant minds. You were intentionally deceived so that you will believe the False Messiah when he arrives with the False Armageddon you imagine in Ezekiel 38.
Please do us all a favor and call yourself a Jew Hater.
I will pray for you!
Sorry Geri, please consider what SwiftJustice is saying. I also was deceived. I for one am not a hater of the Jews at all, I only desire them to come to faith in Jesus Christ our Lord, remember that is the only way to be saved not by some national covenant.
Do you think that I do not know that EVERYONE needs to come to God through Christ??? Are you new to this blog? READ ROMANS 11………SLOWLY – OVER AND OVER AND OVER………
You say that you are not a Jew Hater but perhaps you believe in Replacement Theology??? That errant theology has caused more anti Semitism than anything else……well, maybe the same caused by Luther, Calvin and many other Reformation people who DETESTED the Jewish people.
Replacement theology is a deception, as is dispensational futurism. Historicism in my view is the proper eschatological position, It reinforces the position that we all come to faith the same way, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Male, female, Greek or Jew makes no difference.
Please study your Bible. If you truly do, you will see that God does NOT call for His children to hate Israel, Zionism or the Jewish people.
Right then. Your comment was an ATTACK peace rooted in misuse of scripture, faulty interpretations, and outright disrespect. If you wish to debate scripture interpretation, then please do without the insults..
WOW! Really, I would NOT want to be you when you stand before our Jewish Savour on “THAT DAY”. It’s so FRIGHTENING just thinking about it.
As soon as they get the bomb they will USE it. There should be NO DOUBT in anybody’s mind! But to destroy them would require massive ordnance and possibly a nuclear strike.
GOD is in full control!
The first “Jew”(ess) in the Bible was “Yehudith,” a Hittite/Canaanite wife of Esau. Both Josephus and Strabo (eyewitnesses) wrote that all the Edomites (Idumaeans) became Jews circa 120 BC, and most of the Jews (a demonym, i.e. resident of Judaea) were Idumaeans in the time of Christ.
“And many of the people of the land (127 provinces from India to Ethiopia) became Jews for the fear of the Jews came upon them.” Esther 8:17
“As it is written, Jacob I have loved but Esau I have hated.” Romans 9:13
The Jews are NOT Israel. Ephraim alone was to become “a multitude (commonwealth) of nations.” You most certainly cannot spin this to mean Jews. Ephraim and Manasseh’s mother was a Nordic Egyptian. (Asenath) They are the birthright holders. (1 Chron. 5:1)
But Ephraim was driven out of The land by Jewish terrorists in 1947-8
Wow…….not sure who has been teaching you this stuff, but if they charged you – you should ask for a refund. This is Satanic rubbish
Thank you.
