This is just my personal expectations…
I’m convinced Trump and Netanyahu will not stop until they have evacuated all the Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank. From what I’ve read so far, they are putting a very hard squeeze on several different national governments to accept the Palestinians. If nothing else, I would bet they simply push them into Syria and Iraq in the absence of a strong central government that could organize to prevent it.
I’m sure Trump will do what he can to fund a building program of refugee housing and maybe even some reasonable infrastructure for life support to receive them. I don’t believe he’s lying about that. Meanwhile, various Islamic governments will most certainly object and find ways to fight the dispossession of Palestinians. What we’ve seen so far as forces have supported Palestinian resistance has been piddling by comparison to what they might do when expulsion actually gets started.
I find it hard to believe that this isn’t going to result in a serious commitment of American troops to the Middle East. I’m sure people will call it a war, but I doubt it will be an actual national mobilization (declaration of war), but more like a “police action” kind of deployment. That’s the same stuff the US has been doing in that region already, so this would be just a different flavor.
Still, it would be a major drain on resources. It’s part of the motivation for DOGE. All the bogus spending the Democrats/globalists have been doing for decades will simply shift to a different program. Instead of USAid to news agencies and globalist agitation, it will be military aid to promote Zionist dreams. And instead of secret funding, this will be quite out in the open.
As the resistance to Zionism escalates quickly, so will the crackdown from the US government. Right now it’s on the back burner, but censorship is just waiting for the right moment. When anti-Zionism starts looking like treason against the US at war, that’s when it will get ugly.
I have no idea what kind of timeline this would follow, but some of this has already started. I’m just pointing out what direction it seems to be headed. I believe Trump’s resolve is that strong.
While the US opposition needs no excuse, I’m willing to bet they will see this as a major opportunity. Any such commitment of US resources will galvanize resistance and further polarize the population. This is likely the time when states will openly talk of secession to avoid supporting something they hate.
In the face of this tribulation, let me remind all my readers that the Covenant works. We will come through this just fine. If you take the Covenant seriously, it will cover you. It’s not an intellectual commitment, but a heart-led feudal submission to Christ the Person.
I’ve tried to warn for many years that the mainstream model of religion here in the US is entirely cerebral and emotional. People talk of “Jesus in your heart” but their concept of “heart” still ends up being a sales pitch conversion with a shallow commitment, not a full feudal submission to Christ as Lord. Thus, the bulk of mainstream church stuff is emotional and cerebral, not faith conviction.
Our community recently lost a few members who were committed on that shallow level. We had been worried they were fake in that sense. Their instincts from lifelong influences of the mainstream churchian ways held them too tightly. We wish them well; we had hopes they would get it, but they didn’t belong. Despite our best efforts, we could not help them find the peace with God they were seeking.
Trust me; I know how hard it is to break that pattern of thinking. Embracing the Covenant path is not a small thing. Our community offers spiritual covering for those who want what we have. You can’t do this without a firm conviction. If this looks like home for you, give it a shot.
