So if you look at the domestic situation in Israel, Israel no longer behaves rationally.
It is sort of overtaken by eschatological fever, right?
So if you look at videos coming out of Israel,
There are rabbis going around saying that this war in the Middle East, even though it's destroying Tel Aviv, it's good for us because this will lead to the coming of our Messiah.
So they believe that it is when Israel is under the most strain, when the very existence of Israel is threatened, then God will intervene because the Jewish people
will come together as a nation again and commit themselves, renew their faith in God.
And once God sees the blind, trusting, absolute faith of the Jewish people, then he will save his people by sending his Messiah, who will then redeem the Jewish people.

Temporal matters don't really matter.
This war in the Middle East, not an issue.
What matters is divinity.
What matters is our relationship with God.
So what matters is faith.

And so a very prominent figure that you probably know very well is John Haji, who runs something called the Christians United for Israel.
