JohnDB has come up with an out of the box solution that the Biden administration first championed. Instead of sending an army to fight with Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran and Yemen, let's send social workers and psychiatrists to talk to them and provide counseling.
Israel has the most prepared military in the world because they are always under threat. As well, they have the most advanced military equipment, much from the US.
Nothing could be more true than these verses. The very ones that you have freely admitted to have NOT read even once....
I do not need ask you to exegete these passages regarding "THE SECOND TIME". Because you will only ignore the inevitable. Shame and unbelief is not going to be MY problem at the Bema Seat.
Isa 11:11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
Isa 11:12
And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
Isa 27:12
And it shall come to pass in that day (the future DOTL!), that the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
Isa 27:13
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
I saw that. It's the woke solution. Everyone can get together and find alternate uses for rocket launchers. I'll start. They can be used to launch candy to nearby kids.
Since they are Biblically accurate......then of course they are.
What else could they be?
I think these high tech lasers can be used to cook a giant barbecue to celebrate the peaceful solution to the conflict as we put all the world leaders into a happy hotel.
Here is a little word study for you @HeIsHere
You might want to take heed. It is God's Gracious Word after all.

And as you should already know (and as I have already indicated many times), those passages pertaining to Israel are all inextricably linked to the Second Coming.
Has the Second Coming already occurred? Of course not it is yet future. And neither have those verses pertaining to the future consolation and redemption of Israel been fulfilled.
Why pray tell? Because only Christ Himself can accomplish that task.....when (and only when) He arrives. Which of course is only to be expected.
We can do a proof of concept after Armageddon so the birds can eat roasted flesh.
Hamas now plans to use rockets with chemical agents (fentanyl) to kill as many Jews as possible.. But that's ok because someone told them they had to move their tent.
No more than Israel building a city for Palestinians. The reality is that there is no solution. All that will happen is Hamas is smashed. Eventually, they will be replaced by another terrorist group. Israel will let its guard down again and be attacked again. Will it be the last time? Will it be Lord Jesus who destroys the invading armies? That will happen eventually. When, I don't know.
Combat on the ground requires a different skill set.
Plus Hamas is prepared and trained.
I will go with Scott Ritter's analysis and other honest military analyzers who are not caught up in the myth of the invicible IDF but time will tell
The IDF has become experts at arresting children, beating up women, and murdering unarmed men. Digging a competent enemy out of the rubble of a destroyed city, especially when they have prepared and organized for such a battle, is deadly work. The Israeli troops who have been assembled outside of Gaza are not ready for this fight. They are not trained or equipped for this fight. They are not psychologically prepared for this fight."
A city of Peace is what the Lord presents as the solution. Paying the price for a peace offering is the Law.
A siege is far more cruel. Already the people of Gaza are desperate for water. Meanwhile Hamas steals all humanitarian aid. Ever since the invasion most of the war is in the tunnels and you don't hear about civilians being killed nearly as much.
There are many disadvantages to being in a tunnel and the IDF is leveraging all of them. They are attacking from four sides in Northern Gaza, makes it very hard to play hide and seek. They are watching the city so when someone does emerge from a tunnel or enter a tunnel their cameras see it. They are flooding tunnels making it very difficult to move about, impossible to be silent, and untenable to hide for long. They have already seized maps of the tunnel network, and when helpful they blow up the tunnels and entrances. They have night vision goggles, they can shut off the electricity and they have elite units going through. Hamas is losing ground every hour and every day. They keep the pressure on 24 hours a day so they can't sleep, you cut off all supplies to the Northern half of Gaza so they are stressed out after a month. They are losing and they know it and none of their losses are being broadcast worldwide so they can't use their deaths for publicity.
Netanyahu is a war criminal and a rat, and he knows his own people want to try him as a war criminal. He's just doing what all rats do as the ship sinks - trying to save his own sorry skin. I'm hoping he is held to justice, and the guilty with him.
