Israel under Fire : The Prophetic Chain of Events That Threatens the Middle East

Israel Under Fire has the key ingredients for readers who track today’s news, scriptural predictions, and Israel:

• Penetrating evaluation of Middle East events
• Expert understanding of Bible prophecy and end-times happenings
• Incisive Q-and-A with religious and political leaders such as Benjamin Netanyahu, former Israeli prime minister; Moshe Arens, three-time Israeli defense minister; and Adnan Husseini, Yasser Arafat’s cousin and Palestinian Authority spokesman

Ankerberg and DeYoung, co-host of Day of Discovery and noted prophecy expert, examine signs that point―now―toward apocalyptic conflict:

• Temple rebuilding: Jewish religious leaders plan it on a site still controlled by Islam.
• Threats to Israel: internally, a burgeoning Arab population; externally, instability from the Palestinians’ Hamas–Fatah split.
• Iran’s intentions: to “wipe Israel off the map”…possibly utilizing nuclear weapons.

Readers will gain unparalleled insight into the massive historical currents converging on Israel…and promising to generate inescapable consequences for the West.
