WORLD WAR III

A three hour [nuclear?] war.  Two thirds of the world\u2019s population destroyed? The West obliterated? Is this what the King of Persia [Iran] will do?

A few shows back, I read out one of the more famous predictions of what mankind may face in the future during the Messianic era. It was taken from MEDRISH \u201CYALKUT SHIMONI\u201D (Yeshiya 60). I roughly translated it from the Hebrew on air, but I now received a better and complete translation in my email inbox just yesterday already in English, so I am reposting this article from  www.torahnews.org here:

WORLD WAR THREE

MEDRISH \u201CYALKUT SHIMONI\u201D (Yeshiya 60):

\u201CRabbi Yitzhak said: The year that  Melech HaMoshiach will be revealed, all the kings of the nations of the world will provoke each other. The king of Persia [in modern times they changed the name of their country to \u201CIran\u201D] will threaten the king of Arabia [today called \u201CSaudi\u201D Arabia] and because of this the king of Arabia will go to the king of Edom [USA] for advice.

Afterwards the king of Persia will destroy [most of] the world. The remaining nations will be hysterical and frantic and fall on their faces and will be seized as if by \u201Cbirth pains\u201D.

And the people of Israel will be frantic and hysterical and they will say, where will we come and go? Where will be come and go?

And Hashem will say to them: Do not fear my children, do not fear. All that I have done I did only for you. Why are you afraid? The time for your Redemption has come!

THE EXPLANATION OF THIS MEDRISH:

Rabbi Yitzhak said [about 2000 years ago!]:

The year that  Melech HaMoshiach will be revealed [what is expected to happen in the world at the time when Melech HaMoshiach will be revealed], all the kings of the nations of the world will provoke1 each other [the threats of war among the nations will be heard in every corner of the world throughout the countries and between one another].

SUMMARY OF THE DEVELOPMENTS

[The numbers in parenthesis refer to further explanations found in the Hebrew version]

PHASE 1   (2) King of Persia [Leader of Iran] (4) will threaten (3) the King of Arabia [threats of war against the king of Saudi Arabia (which is the only Arab country which still has the name \u201CArabia\u201D)]

PHASE 2   (5) The king of Arabia goes to Edom to get advice from them [The king of Saudi Arabia goes to the Western countries, which are led by America, to consult about how to act against the threat of war from Iran].

PHASE 3   \u201CAnd King of Persia goes back (6) and destroys the whole world [it is clear that you cannot destroy the whole world with conventional weapons. It means to annihilate the world with nuclear weapons. [\u201Cand destroys the whole world\u201D\u2013 the meaning isn\u2019t actually the whole world, the meaning is \u201Cmost of it is as all of it\u201D, meaning to destroy most of the countries of the world]\u201D.

\u201CAnd all the nations of the world will be frantic and hysterical and \u201Cfalling on their faces\u201D and will be as if seized by (7) something like birth pains [a terrible and horrified fear that was unknown until now will grasp all the remaining nations \u2013 lest they too will die in a nuclear war (because they will be unable to protect themselves from the nuclear explosion and the radioactivity that will be formed)].

And the people of Israel will be frantic and hysterical [because of the terrible fear that will be in the world that Iran (Persia) will also attack Israel]. And they will say, where will we come and go [since there will be no possibility to find help or support and there will be no natural way to be saved \u2013 and about this situation it is said \u201Cwe have no one to rely on except our Father in Heaven\u201D] and they will say: \u201CWhere will be come and go?\u201D [The Medrish repeats this twice to emphasize the helplessness and fear that will be then].

And Hashem will say to them [HaKadosh Baruch Hu to the people of Israel]:  do not fear my children [you have nothing to fear], all that I have done I did only for you [HaKadosh Baruch Hu calms Israel, that all the destruction of war was only for your good \u2013 to destroy the wicked Kingdom of Edom and to remove evil from this world and make it possible for the Melech HaMoshiach to be revealed and rule over the world] Why are you afraid? \u201CThe time  for your Redemption has come!\u201D

CAN WE SEE THIS HAPPENING NOW?

In order that one should not think these words of the Medrish are incompatible with the reality of our days, it is important to clarify what often appears in the media regarding the \u201CKing of Persia\u201D (President of Iran) and  about the \u201Cmahdi\u201D.

The current president of Iran since his election has declared several times in public, that the main purpose of his government is to promote the arrival of the \u201Cmahdi\u201D, and for this purpose all military and economical resources will be given. He also said in the UN Assembly (September 25, 2007) that very soon the powerful Western countries will fall and be destroyed.

According to his belief and the belief of the radical cult that he is part of, the way to bring \u201Cthe mahdi\u201D  (the Shiite \u201Cmessiah\u201D who is supposedly, according to their distorted beliefs, going to impose the region of Islam on the whole world) is by creating a situation of chaos with local and international destruction. That is why the President of Iran says they must ignite a local war and then destroy the Western world (which in his opinion is the root of all evil) using nuclear bombs.

This threat isn\u2019t just an ideology or idle talk. Recently there was an article in the press that Israeli Intelligence has concrete information that Iran has a secret nuclear reactor that it is producing there nuclear warheads for rockets.

As it is known today, the government of Iran is made up only from the people of this cult who believe in this \u201Cmahdi\u201D ideology. Whoever doubts this is dismissed from the government (as was the commander of the Iranian revolutionary guards; he was removed from his position and replaced by someone loyal to the President of Iran ym\u201Ds)

Another interesting item that often appeared in the world press: astrologists see something amazing:  very soon the Western world will be destroyed by Iran by nuclear weapons (this corresponds exactly with the words of the Medrish above). To differentiate, lately there have been a few Tzaddikim in our generation who also say that soon there will be a nuclear war outside of Israel and in Eretz Yisroel will be the \u201Cselection\u201D that was foretold in the prophesy of Zecharia (13:8) and Isaiah 6 (\u201Cv\u2019od ba assirya etc\u201D \u2013see Kesubos 112b) by an earthquake, terrifying in its power, unlike anything known in the past.

In view of all this, it is clear that the words of this Medrish: \u201Cand the King of Persia returns and destroys the whole world\u201D are very realistic and in light of ongoing world events, it is quite possible that this will actually happen in the near future.
