If this report is accurate, the situation in the Middle East should get far more complicated very quickly.
It’s the ultimate expression of Dispensationalism: Some Zionist Christian Americans helping some Zionist Israeli extremists get ready to build the Third Temple by providing red heifers meeting the qualifications for a sacrifice that is required. Supposedly those red heifers have already been shipped to Israel and the ritual should take place in about a week (April 22) on land in Israel that is line-of-sight to the proposed site of the Temple.
There is only that small matter of removing the current Muslim shrine there. How could that be a problem, eh? They call it the Dome of the Rock, the third holiest shrine in Islam.
I had almost forgotten about this project. I figured it had disappeared because it was impossible to do. Apparently the people involved are convinced this plan will be ritually valid.
The entertainment never stops.
This definitely is entertainment. It just needs a good editor and maybe an assurance that they leave me and my friends out of the script. 🙂
