Israeli news evokes ‘Gog and Magog’ scenario Date: 18th October 2007 Source: Israel today Two of Israel’s three major television news programs broadcast special reports Wednesday evening dealing with US President George W. Bush’s warning that a nuclear Iran could lead to World War III. Earlier in the day, Bush reminded a White House press conference that “we have a leader in Iran who has announced that he wants to destroy Israel, so I’ve told people that if you’re interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon.” Israel’s Channel 2 and Channel 10 evening newscasts ran with the president’s statement, presenting viewers with large world maps showing the possible alignment of nations in a future world war. On one side would be Israel, the US, Britain, France and Germany. They would be opposed by Russia, Iran, Syria, China and North Korea. Israel National News noted that the scenario was presented in such a way that evoked the biblically prophesied war of “Gog and Magog,” a global end-times conflict spelled out in the book of Ezekiel (chapters 38-39).
