“Fatah: We'll sacrifice victims until Jerusalem is ours”
by Haaretz.com   
August 8th, 2009

The status of Jerusalem as the future capital of a Palestinian state is a red line that no Palestinian leader is permitted to cross, President Mahmoud Abbas' ruling Fatah faction declared in the West Bank on Saturday.

According to Israel Radio, the Fatah general conference, which convened in Bethlehem for a three-day gathering, adopted a position paper which also states that the Palestinian national enterprise will not reach fruition until all of Jerusalem, including the outlying villages, come under Palestinian sovereignty.

Fatah, which rules the West Bank but was ousted from power in Gaza by the Islamist Hamas movement, also ruled out any interim agreements with Israel.

"Fatah will continue to sacrifice victims until Jerusalem will be returned [to the Palestinians], clean of settlements and settlers," the paper states.

According to Israel Radio, the paper does not make a distinction between the eastern and western halves of the capital, nor does it distinguish between the territories within the Israeli side of the Green Line and the areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Six-Day War

Abbas relected to lead Fatah
Mahmoud Abbas has been re-elected to lead Fatah by consensus at the party conference.

There was no vote taken because no other Fatah member challenged Abbas'
five-year rule of the party. Hundreds of delegates cheered and clapped as
Fatah leader Tayib Abdul Rahim announced that Abbas was chosen to lead the party.

Art's Commentary....It is amazing how that prophecies Ezekiel made 2600 years ago are being fulfilled before our very eyes. Ezekiel said the Edomites would in the last days claim the land of Israel for their own possession.  It has been documented that the Palestinians are descendants of the Edomites. They would also claim the Temple Mount as their own.

"Thus saith the Lord God; Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession," Ezekiel 36:2.

"Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which have appointed my land into their possession with joy of all their heart, with despitefull minds, to cast it out for a prey,"  Ezekiel 36:5.

We are reminded of Old Testament times when the enemies of God boldly defied God, and what awful consequences befell them. The Palestinians and their allies are facing a fearful judgment!  Paul said in Galations 6:7, "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap".

I tremble for the enemies of Israel!  Bible prophecy is being fulfilled and will continue to be fulfilled.
