ISRAEL IS A MIRACLE. The Devil and His slaves have tried unsuccessfully to destroy that tiny nation. He cannot. Why does the Devil hate Israel? Because that nation gave us the Saviour Jesus Christ. The pagan desert god sends his slaves to kidnap, steal, rape, kill and destroy but the God of Love and Compassion sent His Son to die as His Paschal Lamb to atone for all our sins and free Satan's slaves from Hate. Jesus Christ arose from the dead and even now is calling for everyone to leave Satan your master and receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and God. - Pastor Max Solbrekken.

‘Last Secret’ of 1967 War: Israel’s Doomsday Plan for Nuclear Display

On the eve of the Arab-Israeli war, 50 years ago this week, Israeli officials raced to assemble an atomic device and developed a plan to detonate it atop a mountain in the Sinai Peninsula as a warning to Egyptian and other Arab forces, according to an interview with a key organizer of the effort that will be published Monday.

The secret contingency plan, called a “doomsday operation” by Itzhak Yaakov, the retired brigadier general who described it in the interview, would have been invoked if Israel feared it was going to lose the 1967 conflict. The demonstration blast, Israeli officials believed, would intimidate Egypt and surrounding Arab states — Syria, Iraq and Jordan — into backing off.

Israel won the war so quickly that the atomic device was never moved to Sinai. But Mr. Yaakov’s account, which sheds new light on a clash that shaped the contours of the modern Middle East conflict, reveals Israel’s early consideration of how it might use its nuclear arsenal to preserve itself.

“It’s the last secret of the 1967 war,” said Avner Cohen, a leading scholar of Israel’s nuclear history who conducted many interviews with the retired general.
