Pentagon puts troops on notice to prepare to deploy to support Israel: reports
thehill.com

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered a limited number of U.S. troops to prepare for deployment in support of Israel, as reported by multiple sources.

Approximately 2,000 troops have been selected to be on standby for advisory and medical assistance.

The troops will be drawn from various branches of the U.S. military, including those already stationed in the Middle East and nearby Europe.

While their specific units and deployment locations have not been disclosed, it has been emphasized that they will not have a combat role.

The U.S. is extending support to Israel, which is engaged in a conflict with Hamas, primarily focusing on intelligence and planning assistance for potential hostage rescue operations.

Attend an evangelical or Pentecostal church for a few months. It'll come up. They still believe Jesus is coming back and he can't do so until the temple is rebuilt. Which would require the razing of the mosque.

A family member of mine is a preacher and he and his family are gleefully announcing the end times are here!! It's happening!! The red heifer has been born!! It's absolutely disgusting how they want Israel to get rid of the Palestinians so they can get on with the rebuilding of the temple.

Well if they're anything like my own relatives who are giddy that "it's finally happening", have you brought the parallels between their antichrist and a certain ex-president?

I did, and now half the family refuses to acknowledge my existence at family reunions. So it worked out pretty well for me.

I remember a few years ago coming across a website that had a huge list of over 100 things, referencing various Bible verses and then giving their real world parallel. I've tried looking for it again, but can never seem to find the right one.

After a brief glance over it, I do believe this is the one I was thinking of!

Man, I need to edit and print this out and leave it in my mother in law's mailbox and wait for the inevitable social media meltdown about Satanists or something.

These idiots don't realize the temple could have already been rebuilt because Isreal controls that location already.
