Headline 1 'Everything should be on the table,' says Bennett regarding actions against Iran (Sky News)

"The Islamic Republic of Iran is not a regular regime; it's a regime of terror," Naftali Bennett said. "We should not take anything off the table, including targeting their leader.”

Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett stated that Israel must do everything in its power to dismantle the Iranian regime and prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons in an interview with Sky News on Thursday.

He is absolutely correct on what must be done...

Headline 2 CBS memo sparks outrage: Journalists instructed not to acknowledge Jerusalem as part of Israel

The news organization's initial reasoning was that the control of the city was "the heart of the issue."By JERUSALEM POST STAFF

CBS News is facing backlash after an internal memo instructed journalists not to refer to Jerusalem as part of Israel, igniting criticism from media figures and raising concerns about journalistic integrity. The memo, sent by CBS News senior director of standards Mark Memmott in late August, emphasized the disputed status of Jerusalem, despite its recognition as Israel’s capital by the US government.

This is a pathetic story about a pathetic organization that pretends to be journalists... So, no surprise here.

And speaking of no surprises....

Headline 3 US urges Israel to quickly pivot from military offensive to diplomacy in Lebanon

Over 300 rockets, drones fired at Israel during Yom Kippur; military says Hezbollah using ambulances to move fighters; Macron urges terror group to stop firing at Israel

The US on Sunday urged Israel to shift focus from its military offensive in southern Lebanon to a diplomatic solution as soon as possible, while France called on Hezbollah to stop its rocket fire on Israel and accept a ceasefire.

The diplomatic pressure came as Hezbollah fired more than 300 missiles, rockets and drones at Israel over Yom Kippur, Judaism’s holiest day, which ended at nightfall Saturday.

Meanwhile, Israel pushed forward with its military offensive in southern Lebanon, amid mounting international criticism over several incidents where UN peacekeepers were hit.

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant during which he “reinforced the need to pivot from military operations in Lebanon to a diplomatic pathway as soon as feasible,” according to the Pentagon statement released early Sunday.

Can an administration get any more ridiculous than this one? Possibly... it depends upon the outcome of the elections in a few weeks...

Headline 4 Secret Documents Show Hamas Tried to Persuade Iran to Join Its Oct. 7 Attack

The Times reviewed the minutes of 10 meetings among Hamas’s top leaders. The records show the militant group avoided several escalations since 2021 to falsely imply it had been deterred — while seeking Iranian support for a major attack.

For more than two years, Yahya Sinwar huddled with his top Hamas commanders and plotted what they hoped would be the most devastating and destabilizing attack on Israel in the militant group’s four-decade history.

Again, no surprise here. The charter of Hamas calls for the destruction of Israel. From Scripture, we know that it will never happen...

Headline 5 Michigan Bishops Protest Gov. Whitmer’s Mockery of Holy Communion

ROME — The Michigan Catholic Bishops’ Conference has protested Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s mockery of the sacrament of the Eucharist, calling the blasphemous stunt “offensive.”

A video posted on Instagram Thursday featured Gov. Gretchen Whitmer placing a Dorito chip on the extended tongue of a kneeling woman, in a gesture readily recognizable as the Catholic practice of Holy Communion.

Again, no surprise here... while these leftist attempt to destroy both Christians and Jews we have the promise of Scripture that each group will exist until the return of Christ.

For documentation, see our books on Bible Prophecy from our website educatingourworld, especially 25 Signs We Are Near The End.... they are all free downloads.

As always, we see the truth of Scripture confirmed before our eyes.
