ISRAEL Vs HEZBOLLAH:
THE RISK of WAR NOW IS THE HIGHEST IN RECENT WEEKS", SAYS US INTELLIGENCE


A large-scale confrontation between ISRAEL and Hezbollah is likely to break out in the next several weeks if Jerusalem and Hamas fail to reach a cease-fire deal in Gaza, U.S. intelligence indicates.

U.S. officials are trying to convince both sides to deescalate — a task that would be significantly easier with a cease-fire in place in Gaza. But that agreement is in tense negotiations and U.S. officials are not confident Israel and Hamas will agree to the deal on the table in the near future.

Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces and Hezbollah have drafted battle plans and are in the process of trying to procure additional weapons, according to two senior U.S. officials briefed on the intelligence.

Both sides have publicly said they do not want to go to war, but senior Biden officials increasingly believe that intense fighting is likely to break out despite efforts to try and prevent it.

The risk is higher now than at any other point in recent weeks, according to another senior U.S. official, who, like others in this story, was granted anonymity to speak freely about sensitive intelligence.

A war between Israel and Hezbollah could ignite a conflict that forces the U.S. to help defend Jerusalem and pushes the Biden istration to engage more deeply in a region it has for years tried to leave. It also risks another humanitarian disaster, punching the aid community at a time when it is already stretched thin and trying to manage the crisis in Gaza.


The U.S. intelligence offers a slightly more conservative assessment than those coming from parts of Europe.
Some European countries calculate that a war between Israel and Hezbollah could happen in days. Many have advised their citizens to leave Lebanon. Canada is also preparing to evacuate thousands from the country.

The State Department on Thursday issued a travel advisory for U.S. citizens, urging them to “strongly reconsider” travel to Lebanon.


National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said the istration is working toward a “diplomatic resolution” that would allow Israeli and Lebanese citizens to return to their homes.

The Biden istration has for weeks tried to persuade both sides against going to war. Top U.S. officials, including Amos Hochstein, an envoy to the Middle East, have traveled to the region in recent days to try and restore calm.

Despite those efforts, senior Biden officials have said that the escalating tensions on Israel’s border — and the lack of any significant movement in cease-fire negotiations — are trending toward war.

“The logic of Nasrallah … is that it is all tied to Gaza, and until there is a cease-fire in Gaza the firing at Israel won’t stop,” a senior Biden istration official told reporters on Wednesday. “We frankly, completely reject this logic.”

U.S. officials told POLITICO the intelligence indicates the catalyst for war — a major attack by either side, for example — is likely to happen with little notice.

ISRAELI Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who visited Washington this week, told reporters Wednesday that Israel does “not want war.” He added: “The goal is to bring our citizens back home safely. We prefer to do it via understandings, but we are preparing for every possible scenario.”

GOD is Speaking through World Headlines! Are you Listening??

Lebanon could be the kickoff rally to start some Major Prophetic wars.

As the IDF Prepares to take to the skies to Destroy Hezebollah Terror group, the complete explosion of the Psalm 83 Multifront War is on the brink as the likes of Iran, Syria, the iraq iranian backed terrorists, the houtis in yemen and others are threathening to in a Full Scale WAR against the APPLE OF GOD'S EYES, ISRAEL.

This is definitely looking like the runway that leads to Isaiah 17 Wiping out of Damascus from the Earth ,
The Jeremiah 49:34-39 STRIKE on the Iranian Nuclear Facilities,
The Gog Magog War Collation against ISRAEL,
The Time Of Jacobs Trouble, after the Rapture and the g of the Daniel 9:27 covenant!

Listen Folks! ISRAEL is GOD'S Time Clock.
ISRAEL is the Focal point of the Endtimes Major Events.

GOD is about to close this age of grace and turn HIS Full attention to the APPLE OF HIS EYES, ISRAEL because they must saved and come to the knowlege of JESUS CHRIST.

The RAPTURE is Upon us !!
Not only are we on the runway sitting on Titus 2:13 airlines but the engines have started!
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING QUICKLY!
It will Happen in a Twinkling of an eye.

Be Ready! Live Ready! Live Prepared!

Hezbollah don buy market. Southern Lebanon is going to look like Gaza very soon. All in ruins.

In the next few weeks, a few disgruntled Yoruba Muslims will start shouting free Lebanon. Then the ragtag agbado munchers will blame Peter Obi for it.

I can swear with Tinubu's testicles on this.

Ok

Let it start already. Some adherents of a particular faith see terrorism as their stock in trade and force their beliefs on non adherents using the instruments of terrorism. Let them be shown what living in a sane society entails before they spread their madness across the globe. Just wondering what would have happened if the almighty United States was one of their countries, the whole world would have been made to submit to their religion, religion of piSS indeed!!

A stronger Israel deters aggressors and brings peace to the Middle East

Biden should set the right tone. Tell them that anyone who attacks Israel will bear the consequences with the help of Israel’s allies

Don’t let terr***sts and their sympathizers across the world continue to think it’s ok to attack Israel and expect no consequences

They think they can use propaganda and protests to prevent Israeli retaliation. They think Israel will be abandoned by its allies due to the pressure of propaganda so they continue to plan attacks

BREAKING: Russian Military of Defense Says The US Has Relocated Ukrainian Bio-Labs to Africa and Are Planning to Release Avian Flu (a bioweapon) To Start Another Pandemic, and Blame It On Putin. #FalseFlagOperation Everyone should see this.

He said the U.S. bioweapon operations was relocated due to Russia’s liberation of the labs in Ukraine. Kirillov alleges that Biden-owned Metabiota and other intermediary NGOs are running cover for the U.S. State Department and DoD, posing as humanitarian organizations to conceal their true objective of pathogen production for Big Pharma.

Kirillov also pointed out that Biden-owned Metabiota, has been forced to stop operating in many African countries due to awareness of their nefarious biological weapon activities and agenda.

Does anyone my post from just few a days ago about how Russia stepped into Ukraine and their first target was what they alleged as U.S. -funded Biological weapons labs? Bio-labs are the labs in which they manufacture all these diseases/viruses that they unleash on humanity to trigger pandemics. It is also in these labs that they manufacture these toxic and dangerous GMO seeds and chemicals that are aimed at the mass culling of human population, as Bill from hell had always wished. I reported on this Russian lab destruction in Ukraine vigorously while the destruction was ongoing, two years ago. Now, they’ve relocated them to Africa as part of their mass depopulation agenda against Africans. There’s just no room for carelessness and sleepiness anymore. The enemy is no longer at our doorstep. The enemy is in the building and we must mass sensitize in order to mass expel these parasites from hell. #RejectGinanceBill2024 #SayNoToGMO #SayNoToBillGatesGMO #SayNoToBioLabsinAfrica
