78 THE SIG N S OF THE END
just as Mussolini’s avant garde used to flaunt the club and the
fascist badge. I find it shameful that in nearly all the universities
o f Europe Palestinian students sponsor and nurture anti-
Semitism.
I find it shameful that in the name o f Jesus Christ (a Jew without
whom they would all be unemployed), the priests o f our par
ishes. . .flirt with the assassins o f those in Jerusalem who cannot
go to eat a pizza or buy some eggs without being blown up.
Could this growing hatred toward Israel signal the beginning o f
the European domination that is spelled out in the Scriptures? The
formation o f political, military and economic solidarity as personi
fied in the European Union today must cause every thinking
Christian to consider the possibility that it will lead to the fulfillment
o f End Times prophecies pointing to the entrance o f the Antichrist.
It’ s another piece in the prophetic puzzle moving into place.
In April 2002, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu told various private and governmental groups in the
United States that if Israel is not allowed to destroy the terror network
o f Yasser Arafat, then the same type o f terror will make its way to
American shores. One month later, the American government began
to issue warnings that homicide bombers would attack the nation, just
as they do in Israel.
And yet, misinformed Americans continue to express their
disdain for the Israelis for “occupying” Palestinian land, perpetuating
the Arab myth that the “Palestinians” ever possessed land anywhere.
Pro-Palestinian rioters in America have stepped up their racist
agenda with hate-filled protesting at college campuses like San
Francisco State University, where they shout, “Hitler should have
finished it,” and “Leave or we’ll kill you.” In the spring o f 2002, a
mailbox bomb exploded in Philadelphia with a note attached that
read “Free Palestine.”
America’s long support o f Israel is waning and, like that o f the
rest o f the world, its continued political pressure against the only ally
and democracy in the Middle East will likely cause a more virulent
anti-Semitism to grow within its own borders.
