The Times of Israel: “The Turkish prime minister called on Israel to “retreat to the 1967 borders,” saying that former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert had been open to the move, but successive governments have adopted a different approach. “Israel itself does not accept a Palestinian state — as long as it refuses to do so, there is little to discuss,” said Erdogan.

On Thursday, standing next to US President Barack Obama, Erdogan made clear that he intends to carry through with a planned visit to the Gaza Strip next month, despite objections from the US, Israel, and the Palestinian Authority, which fears the move will bolster Hamas. Erdogan said he would also visit the West Bank.”

Opinion: Wow! I really don’t like this guy. So even though I am a Christian, I cannot resist the urge to call him a Chazar. Forgive me, I had to get that out.

I said yesterday that Erdogan may switch sides, but on second thought he really doesn’t have to, because Barack Hussein Obama agrees wholeheartedly with the notion of making Israel indefensible. On May 19, 2011 President Obama called for the retreat to the ’67 borders as well.

So Erdogan is going to visit the West Bank town of Judea. In 500 BC, the Edomites, after being pushed out of their homeland in southern Jordan, moved into Idumea or southern Judea (West Bank) during the time of the Babylonian captivity. When the Jews returned, many intermarried with the Jewish/Pagan blood of the Edomites, producing the Arabs of the West Bank.

By the year 200 BC that same Edomite blood had spread north into Turkey creating a mixture of people called Chazars, another enemy of the Jews. Prime Minister Erdogan fits that profile quite well.

Last, but by no means least, Erdogan will visit Gaza, where he should feel right at home; that is where the Philistines (Psalm 83:7), another enemy of God’s chosen, reside.

The Times of Israel: Erdogan is visiting Washington just days after two car bombs in Turkey killed dozens in the deadliest terrorist attack there in years. Turkish authorities have blamed Syrian intelligence, and Erdogan has been calling for more aggressive steps to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government. But the Obama administration remains reluctant to take the kind of action that Turkey would like to see, including establishing a no-fly zone in Syria.”

Opinion: For Bible prophecy students, particularly students of Ezekiel 38-39, this is fascinating to watch.

For now, it appears that President Obama and Prime Minister Erdogan are on the same page when it come to Israel and Syria. Last month the president convinced PM Netanyahu to apologize to Turkey for the 2010 Flotilla incident, which boosted Erdogan’s prestige in the Muslim world, especially since Turkey was the guilty party.

But Ezekiel 38:6-8 tells us that Turkey, represented by Gomer from the house of Beth Togarmah, will be in league with Russia and Iran at some time in the future when Israel is living in peace and safety.

If the Syria mess continues to escalate and Erdogan become disenchanted with Obama’s constant dithering on what course of action to take, watch Turkey move to a new alliance.

Turkey-Explosion_Horo-4-635x357The Times of Israel: “In one of the deadliest attacks in Turkey in recent years, two car bombs exploded near the border with Syria on Saturday, killing 43 and wounding 140 others. Turkish officials blamed the attack on a group linked to Syria, and a deputy prime minister called the neighboring country’s intelligence service and military “the usual suspects.”

Opinion: Recipe for a Mid-East omelet:

First, place Turkey in oven at 450 degrees.

In a large bowl mix together 1 dozen eggs with Syrian, Iranian and Russian spices. Carefully blend in Hezbollah, the Greek Orthodox, Armenian Christians and Druze. While that group is being armed by Russia and Iran, set aside to simmer.

Next, in a medium bowl combine the Muslim Brotherhood-backed al Qaeda rebels, and set aside while the US stirs in red hot chile peppers.

Now, combine the two bowls and pour over the Turkey and serve hot.

PS: Be careful, mixture is highly flammable.
