Numbers 24:8,9
God brought them out of Egypt
they have the strenght of the wild ox
they devour hostile nations
and break their bones in pieces
With their arrows they pierce them
like a lion they crotch
and lie down like a lioness
who dares to rouse them
May those who blessed them be blessed
and those who cursed them be cursed.

No one will defeat Israel because they are God's chosen people.
Signs of the End of the Age
Luke 21 (NIV)
5Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6"As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down."
7"Teacher," they asked, "when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?"
8He replied: "Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not follow them. 9When you hear of wars and revolutions, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away."
10Then he said to them: "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
12"But before all this, they will lay hands on you and persecute you. They will deliver you to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13This will result in your being witnesses to them. 14But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17All men will hate you because of me. 18But not a hair of your head will perish. 19By standing firm you will gain life.
20"When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. 22For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written. 23How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
25"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."
29He told them this parable: "Look at the fig tree and all the trees. 30When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. 31Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near.
32"I tell you the truth, this generation[b] will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 33Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
34"Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. 35For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man."
The fig tree is a symbol for Israel, which became a nation in 1948. THIS GENERATION WILL NOT PASS AWAY BEFORE HE RETURNS!

Israel time has not been finished yet but stopped for a certain period. The time that the Lord has given Israel to complete and fulfill all prophecies shall soon begin. However, God has given the Nations their times too, for God has loved the world and every human being on Earth. We are now living in that time, time of nations or (Gentiles). Once the time of the Gentiles is complete, Israel's times will start ticking again to complete all prophecies and to finish all that is said in the Bible about end of times, during which the Church will ascend to Heaven along with the Holy Spirit. Then Israel, shall complete their times as prophesied. There will be the preacher of Christ during this time who will be mere Jewish because no more true christian shall remain on Earth. It is going to be wonderful to witness the last days as written in the Bible more than 2500 years ago. We will witness Daniel's prophecies which coincides with the Revelation of John and we will watch all these incidents from Heaven as the Bible prophesied before the coming or the appearance of the Lord to take what is His and rule the world with a rod of Iron.

Syria, Egypt, Turkey, or Saudi could smoke Isreal in an afternoon. But, Israel is like a US protectorate. They really don't amount to much without our Jews and goofy misguided Christians who don't know where their loyalties lie.
