(Daniel 8: 25) “And he shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken—but by no human hand”
On Tuesday 22nd of April the idyllic green meadows of Baisaran in Pahalgam turned into a blood-soaked battleground as militants opened fire on unsuspecting tourists, killing at least 26 people, including foreign nationals, and injuring many more. Terrorists, reportedly armed with military-grade weapons, had infiltrated from across the border in Pakistan.
Police sources marked it as the worst civilian massacre in Kashmir in recent memory.
The Kashmir conflict is a territorial conflict over the Kashmir region, primarily between India and Pakistan, and also between China and India in the north-eastern portion of the region.
The conflict started after the partition of India in 1947 as both India and Pakistan claimed the entirety of the former princely state of Jammu and Kashmir. It is a dispute over the region that escalated into three wars between India and Pakistan and several other armed skirmishes.
Three countries have announced their support for Pakistan being Turkey, China and Azerbaijan.
According to one report online it states…
“Reports concerning China and Turkey suggest that they have provided Pakistan with lethal weapons. In addition to supplying weapons to Islamabad, China announced on Sunday that it will support Pakistan in “protecting its sovereignty and security interests.”
Pakistan is predominantly Sunni, with about 90% of its Muslim population identifying as Sunni Muslims, while Shia Muslims make up around 10-15% of the population. Turkey is predominantly Sunni Muslim. Azerbaijan is also a Muslim country whose population is predominantly Shia
The online report also stated…
“China, Turkey, and Azerbaijan have always stood by Pakistan, so it is not surprising that these three countries have come together to support Islamabad. Under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), China has invested billions of dollars in Pakistan and fears that in the event of war, India may attack the ports built by China.”
It also stated…
“India has also sent one of its aircraft carriers to the Arabian Sea, which could pose a threat to the Gwadar port. In addition, China has also supplied Pakistan with PL-15 missiles in emergency situations. Meanwhile, Pakistan has claimed that Turkey has delivered six aircraft to Pakistan, five of which landed in Islamabad and one in Karachi.”
Turkey also sells weapons to Pakistan. Pakistan has purchased MILGEM-class warships from Turkey. On the Kashmir issue, Turkey has openly supported Pakistan.
Military cooperation between Pakistan and Azerbaijan has also increased in recent days. Both countries are strengthening their ties through arms deals as well as military exercises.
In contrast the major religions in India are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, and Sikhism. These religions, along with Jainism, Buddhism, and Zoroastrianism, are significant parts of the country’s religious landscape. Hinduism is the largest religion, followed by Islam, then Christianity and Sikhism.
One of the goals of Islam is to destroy all religions!
As this post is being written today online it is now being reported that heavy fighting has erupted in Kashmir. Both Pakistan and India it would seem are gearing up their arsenals for a major conflagration. Added to this both Putin and Trump have decided to intervene to mediate if that is still possible in the very tense and dangerous situation.
Now it is also interesting to note that Israel supports India.
Further on the online report it also stated…
“Israel’s Foreign Ministry confirmed that Israel will stand by India in the event of a conflict, particularly in the aftermath of the deadly Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives.
On Republic Media Network’s question of whether Israel would support India if it takes military action against Pakistan in retaliation, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Israel Oren Marmorshtein said “Israel will stand with you. This is what friends do. We stand with India. It is our principled position.”
The statement came just hours after the attack on tourists in Kashmir’s Pahalgam.
Marmorshtein went on to say… “India is our friend, and this connection is important. We know how it feels when radical terrorists target your people.” Israel will stand with India, and this is what we have done and will continue to do in the future.”
Israel also drew parallels between the Pahalgam assault and its own struggles with terrorism, specifically referencing the Hamas-style attacks that have plagued Israel since October 7th 2023.
Israel is fighting Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon and defeating these terrorist organizations, however, the IDF is still in active combat. Added to this, the IDF are also engaged in fighting the increasing terrorist operatives in Judea and Samaria (the West bank).
As for the Houthis in Yemen the Israelis are still fighting them however, primarily it is the United States that is dealing with that situation at present.
In Syria the rebel terrorist, Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, also known as me de guerre Abu Mohammad al-Julani now dressing in a suit and tie and seeking to promote Syria as a ‘democratic’ country, is in reality controlling a despotic dictatorship supported by Erdogan of Turkey as both are Sunni Muslims, and totally committed to the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood which has as its ultimate goal a global Islamic caliphate under Sharia law.
Turkey has been establishing bases in Syria and some of them have been subjected to Israeli airstrikes as the Israelis are aware of the impending threat Turkey poses to Israel.
Julani wants to join the Abraham Accords but his demands are for Israel to stop attacking Syrian territory and that Syria remains united. In reality based on his terrorist past as a Jihadist, Julani would eventually systematically destroy the ethnic minorities that would not submit to his dictatorship. He wants a united Syria which he can rule, and that with a despotic dictatorship.
Of course Israel would never let this happen!
Another demand for Julani if he were to join the Abraham Accords, which would be problematic for Israel, is an arrangement regarding the Israeli forces’ withdrawing from Syrian territory, in the Syrian Mt Hermon and other areas like the Golan Heights.
Julani knows full well that if Israel complies with his demands then Israel would be in a vulnerable position to be attacked. He is not to be trusted!
What is happening between Pakistan and India may well be a prelude to a war between these two nuclear ready countries.
If a war starts and Turkey and China go to Pakistan’s defence then Israel may well find itself embroiled in another war which Israel may not be able to handle given their current situation.
Behind all of this conflict lies Islam controlled by Satan as he seeks to destroy Israel to prevent God’s prophetic purposes for Israel, for the Church and for the world.
We know that Satan has already lost the war!
It seems that the Islamic nations are being gathered for the invasion of Israel as Erdogan makes his diplomatic rounds in visiting mostly Islamic countries in order to promote a united Islam like his forebears sought to achieve in the Turkish Ottoman Empire when it was at the zenith of its power with its supreme caliphate. China may well be one of the “many nations” joining the invasion force.
The end-game of a united Islam would ultimately be the conquest of Jerusalem.
The prophet Daniel spoke about the one that will arise in the latter days as this present age comes to a close…
Daniel writes…
“A king of bold face, one who understands riddles, shall arise. His power shall be great—but not by his own power; and he shall cause fearful destruction and shall succeed in what he does, and destroy mighty men and the people who are the saints. By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind he shall become great. Without warning he shall destroy many. And he shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken—but by no human hand” (Daniel 8:23-25).
The Second Coming of the Messiah our Lord Jesus to rescue Israel, rapture and resurrect the saints, and to inaugurate the Millennial Messianic Kingdom on earth, will put an end to this one skilled in the Diplomacy of Deception.
