Two-state solution between Israelis and Palestinians

by Irvin Baxter

 

During a speech at Bar Ilan in 2009, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for a two-state solution between Israelis and Palestinians. Since then, many people have accused Netanyahu of claiming he is for two states for two people while actually pushing to create one state under Israeli control.

 

In a recent interview with Lesley Stahl of 60 Minutes, Netanyahu said, “I haven’t reversed my position. I’ve said, ‘Look, we will solve this because we want two nation-states at peace and with the proper security arrangements.’ Two states for two peoples…that is where I’m focused.”

 

He then went on to say, “I’d like to have President Trump, when he gets into the White House, help me work on that. I’d like to see if the Arab states can help me achieve that. It’s a new reality. A new possibility.”

 

President-Elect Donald Trump has stated that he wants to try to broker a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians. He said that arranging peace in the Middle East would be the biggest deal anyone could ever achieve.

 

The Bible prophesies there is going to be a peace agreement between Israelis and Palestinians. Furthermore, when this peace agreement is achieved, it will mark the beginning of the Final Seven Years to the Battle of Armageddon and the Second Coming of Jesus to the earth.

 

We have to ask the question, “Could the Final Seven Years to Armageddon begin during the presidency of Donald Trump?” It certainly is a strong possibility!
