Updated: Attack on Iran: Decisive Step to Gog u Magog

Rav Ron Chaya

 

Iran is obsessed with destroying Israel. 

We will experience Gog u Magog... a people who come from the North to attack us.  In my opinion they are in agreement to attack, both at the same time.  It is noted that there is no greater day for the people of Israel than Yom Kippur and the 15th of Av.  [not sure why he mentions that here, perhaps it will become clearer later in the video]

He begins by explaining why we are at war....  We have been waiting for this for 30 - 40 years.  Although it is only about 15% of Iranians who wish for the destruction of Israel, we believe they are Amalek. They have a hatred of the G-d of Israel and an incomprehensible obsession with its destruction. 

Apparently Hitler yemach shemo told them to change the name from Persia to Iran, because they are "Aryan" like him, descended from the Iranian [Aryan] stock.  Obviously we have no doubt that Hitler yemach shemo was Amalek whose sole purpose was to annihilate the Jewish people.  Anyway, he told the Iranians that they are from the same race and we see this obsession with wanting to destroy the land of Israel.  Iran is a poor country and most of the money it has, it uses to buy weapons, build an atomic bomb etc. 

Iran is the centre of the Shi'ites. It was Iran who armed Hezbollah.  They are also the ones who assisted Hamas in Gaza. And they send the missiles to the Houthis in Yemen to fire them into Israel.

So we can say it is an octopus with many tentacles whose head is Iran. 

They think the Madi [their Moshiach]  must come within the framework of war throughout the world, an end of time war.

For years and years we have known that we have to go to war against Iran and the leaders of Israel have been preparing for it.  As we know Iran now has an atomic bomb, Israel had to act. 

He then speaks a bit about the miracles of what Israel has achieved so far, killing the commanders etc.

He speaks about Bibi going to the Kotel to pray, with Javier Milleil, and how we have never seen that... even with Bibi not being a classical orthodox Jew, but he still davened at the Kotel for hatzlacha. Bibi also put a note in the Kotel, a verse from parshat Balak which speaks a lot about the end times. This act of public prayer to Hashem was a Kiddush Hashem.  That a secular statesman goes to pray at the Kotel is extraordinaire !  It's an example for Jews everywhere.  We must call on G-d and then see the phenomenal results.

[this is also what Rabbi Weisberg was saying two blog posts below this one.... ]

He then explains that Israel does not want war, and all we want to do is live in peace... he is explaining this for the non-Jews who have written to him and do not understand certain things.  [I won't type up this part, if you want to hear it, it begins around the 8.30 mark and there are subtitles in any language]

He goes into the history of  Israel and the Israeli/Palestinian origins and the various wars, the surrender of Gaza by Ariel Sharon. 

How does Moshiach come? 

The great non Jewish prophet Bilaam from the parsha Balak, which we will read in four weeks time. Bilaam speaks about the End in two verses.

"Alas! Who will be able to survive when God will impose these things?"   [Balak 24:23]

"Ships from the Kittites will afflict Assyria, and afflict those on the other side. But he, too, will perish forever.” [Balak 24:24]

It is Yishmael who will do us harm at the End of Days.  As it is written in Pirkei Rabbi Eliezer, why are the Arabs called Ishmael? because in the end they will do a lot of harm to Israel. The people of Israel will cry to G-d and G-d will listen [i-shemael] and will answer.  It is a verse in Tehillim, G-d will listen and answer us. 

Now we come to the ships from Kittim.  While there are many interpretations of these ships, the most famous one comes from Rabbi Yonatan ben Uziel who says that these are soldiers/armed fleets that come from the west and they will attack what is today known as Iraq.  This was actually the Gulf Wars when the allied forces came by boat to attack Iraq.  But now it is the other side of the "river" and it is Iran, and the boats will come from the distant shores of the west: America and England as was the case in the Gulf war.

It would seem that America will soon enter the war against Iran because Trump wants to get rid of the Shi'ite leadership... note that 85% of the Iranians are not fanatical Shi'ites who just want to destroy Israel.

Iran has threatened to attack U.S. bases and that's all they have to do to provoke Trump.  He's going to be red-faced, and he's going to smash them into little pieces. And then we'll see Bilaam's prophecy.

Regarding the other part of that verse  "But he, too, will perish forever.” ....The attacker is therefore America.... so how could America be lost for eternity?  Perhaps for example Putin has said he won't hesitate to press the button...but besides that, the great economists of the world say we are on the verge of an economic crash in America, called the End of the Kingdom of Wall St... i.e. the stock market. It will be finished. The dollar will no longer be needed. When Moshiach arrives the dollar will be worth nothing at all - zero.  

So I give you my explanation, but it could all be completely wrong.  In any case, we were waiting for the Israeli and now especially the U.S. attack on Iran, as it is written in the text.... first Iraq and then Iran. 

Also in Daniel Chapter 2,   Nebuchadnezzar's dream where he sees a large statue which in fact represents all the nations for which Israel will be in exile.  At the end, the statue collapses, and even in the order that they collapse - and the final one is Iran. 

So there will be economic collapse, and I could be wrong but I don't think I am wrong.
