The end of Israel and Zionism

by Roger Mitchell, Stevensville

The world is a mess. 

One of the messiest areas is in the Middle East, which sees Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, among others, ratcheting up the “eye for an eye” mentality which may engulf the entire region in all-out war if it is not dialed back and rapidly brought under control. 

The United States, the primary backer of Israel, is no longer in any condition to guarantee positive, beneficial results and its influence world-wide is rapidly diminishing as the status of Israel is increasingly seen as a berserk, maniacal, genocidal monster. As the economic, political, and spiritual standing of the US resolves deeper and more thoroughly into the pit of disaster, Israel will suffer due to being tied so tightly to the status quo, akin to a millstone around its neck, so to speak. 

Or, perhaps, it is the other way around. At any rate, both are in a symbiotic relationship and both are sinking together. 

As it stands right now, the only thing which can save Israel from eventual self-destruction would be the literal, physical return of Jesus Christ, which is believed by so many to be “imminent.” Just around the corner, any time now. Per usual. 

Let me make a prediction. 

IF Jesus does not come back to rapture the “good” people from the clutches of the Antichrist really, really soon (as in, 10 years or so), then the nation-state known as Israel and the religious ideology known as Zionism will cease to exist and the world will be better off for it. 

All that is necessary to salvage Israel is for Jesus to appear in the sky above us, before time and your tax dollars run out and the curtain rings down. This supernatural, miraculous event isn’t going to happen. Instead, we will learn to live in and with another reality—one without the State of Israel. 

I am looking forward to its implementation.
