All of a sudden, everything has changed. Israeli troops have entered southern Lebanon, Iran has fired hundreds of missiles into the land of Israel, and it appears that all-out war has arrived. This war doesn’t seem to have a commonly accepted name yet, and so I am just going to start calling it “the Biggest Middle East War” until somebody out there comes up with something better. Is it just a coincidence that this war has suddenly exploded as the “Comet of the Century” is flying past our planet?
I went through the details of Iran’s attack on Israel in an article that I posted earlier, and so I will not repeat all of that information here. Since I posted that article, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly stated that Iran has “made a big mistake” and that the Iranians “will pay” for what they have done…
“Iran made a big mistake tonight – and it will pay for it. The regime in Iran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and our determination to retaliate against our enemies,” he said.
That sounds rather ominous.
So what should we expect?
Well, one Israeli news source is reporting that the IDF intends to conduct “powerful airstrikes throughout the Middle East”…
Following Iran’s missile barrage, which saw more than 180 rockets launched across Israel, the IDF vowed Tuesday night to carry out “powerful airstrikes throughout the Middle East.”
The military confirmed that the Air Force remains fully operational. Additionally, Israeli and U.S. defense systems effectively intercepted many of the incoming missiles, with the IDF reporting close cooperation in detection and interception efforts.
Senior Israeli officials vowed Tuesday evening that Jerusalem will not remain silent following Iran’s large-scale missile attack. A defense official promised a “severe response,” while another Israeli official warned, “What Iran has suffered so far is only a fraction of what it will face now.”
Of course the IDF has already been bombing pro-Iranian targets all over the Middle East.
Ultimately, I expect something even more dramatic.
Could Israel strike Iran itself?
That is certainly possible.
Naftali Bennett is even suggesting that this is a perfect time to “destroy Iran’s nuclear program”…
With emphasis added, former prime minister Naftali Bennett calls for Israel to act “now” against Iran’s nuclear program, saying the Islamic Republic “made a terrible mistake” with its major missile attack this evening.
“Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East,” Bennett writes in an English-language post on X. “We must act *now* to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime.”
Such an attack would definitely trigger an unstoppable chain of events.
Iran has warned that there will be a “crushing attack” if Israel responds, and the Iranians also seem to be threatening the United States…
Iran’s armed forces warn against any direct military intervention in support of Israel in response to Iran’s missile attack.
“In the event of direct intervention by countries supporting the regime [Israel]… their centers and interests in the region will also face a powerful attack by the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the armed forces says in a statement quoted by Fars news agency.
The Biden administration promised Iran that there would be “severe consequences” if the Iranians launched missiles at Israel.
It is put up or shut up time for the Biden administration.
As all of this has been going on, the “Comet of the Century” has been putting on a spectacular show in the heavens…
Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is putting on a delightful early-morning display for those fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the spectacle before it’s lost in the glare of the rising sun. But it’s not just the early birds with good seats to the show: astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) are also enjoying the spectacle.
We are being told that there will be two windows for those of us in the northern hemisphere to view this comet…
Weather permitting, everyone in the Northern Hemisphere should be able to see Comet A3 in October.
There are two windows to catch it, one from now through October 2 and another from October 12 to 30, according to a press release from Massey.
Interestingly, the first window ends as the festival of Rosh Hashanah is beginning, and the second window starts on Yom Kippur.
And it is now being projected that Yom Kippur will be the time when this comet is the closest to our planet and when it will also be the brightest…
If the comet survives perihelion, it will make its way back to Earth. According to StarWalk.space, the comet will be brightest on October 12 when it makes its closest approach to our plant. During this time, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS will be located relatively high above the horizon in the evening sky.
That is some “coincidence”, eh?
On top of everything else, a “ring of fire” solar eclipse will occur on Wednesday…
For the first time since April’s solar eclipse—during which eleven contiguous states in the U.S. were in the path of totality—some will be able to see another eclipse this coming week.
This noteworthy event, called an annular eclipse, or a “ring of fire” eclipse, will be visible over parts of South America on Wednesday, Oct. 2. A partial eclipse will also be visible in parts of the world.
At the time of this eclipse, the sun will already be down in Israel and the festival of Rosh Hashanah will have commenced.
Amazingly, the first solar eclipse that occurred in 2024 happened on the first day of the first month on the Biblical calendar, and the second solar eclipse that will occur in 2024 will happen on the first day of the seventh month on the Biblical calendar.
These two solar eclipses will be exactly six months apart on the Biblical calendar, and they both fall on very important dates.
The fall festivals begin on the first day of the seventh month, and throughout the fall festivals the “Comet of the Century” will be making history in the skies above our heads.
Meanwhile, here on Earth everyone is bracing for what comes next in the Middle East.
I do not believe that it is a coincidence that all-out war, the “Comet of the Century”, a “ring of fire” solar eclipse and the fall festivals are all happening at the same time.
As I detail in my brand new book entitled “Why”, God has been directing the course of human history for thousands of years, and He continues to do so today.
What we are witnessing right now should be a major league wake up call for all of us, but for the moment most of the population still appears to be in a very deep state of sleep.
