September 3, 2024 – Watchman River Tom – Israel: no chance of surrender!

Scripture about rebirth. 

2 Corinthians 5: 17 “Therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation. Old things have passed away, behold all things have become new.” 

Philippians 1: 6 “Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.”

Israel News:

In a televised address Netanyahu said no chance are we surrendering the Gaza Egypt border corridor and doing so would only guarantee the next massacre and Hamas would take the hostages to Sinai. 

Tom says think of all the tunnels, like highways under the ground. 100 smuggling tunnels have been found by Israel forces under the Philadelphi corridor. Israel today says the failure of agreements of 2005 by Americans that obligated Egypt to prevent smuggling through or under Gaza Sinai border resulted in the failure which resulted in the massacre of 1,200 Israelis on October 7. Also the destruction of Gaza over the months. 

Tom says how could a building stand with all those tunnels that were used for arms and weapons to destroy Israel.

Netanyahu also said if they leave Philadelphi Hamas would be able to revive, rearm, and repeat October 7. 

Netanyahu gave a detailed explanation of the history and importance of keeping Philadelphi in the hands of IDF. He made it clear this is Hamas’s oxygen line and needs to remain cut off. Netanyahu also sent a clear message to Sinwar that no pressure from the US or even Israel will change our stance on Philadelphi. Says no regional war will come and save you.

Biden spoke to reporters outside of the White House yesterday. He said Netanyahu is not doing enough to secure a deal with Hamas.

JNS says after Hamas kills hostages including one American citizen,  Biden pressures Netanyahu on a truce deal and accuses Netanyahu of not doing enough to secure a ceasefire deal with Hamas. This was 2 weeks after Israel accepted the latest proposal by Washington. 

Hamas admitted of the execution of the hostages. A Hamas spokesman says those guarding the remaining hostages have orders to kill them if Israel soldiers get near. Hamas says hostages will return in coffins if Israel maintains military pressure. 

Yesterday 30 rockets from Lebanon by Hezbollah to N. Israel. 

IDF officers and combat soldiers slept outside in front of the home of Gallant Monday night in order to express their position at his conduct in recent months. Objecting to his approach to the war in Gaza and the Philadelphi corridor. One reserve officer at the special forces unit said to Gallant they have come there to tell him if he cannot decide, resign and go home. Says we fought and we were wounded on the Gaza Strip not to end this war in such a pathetic agreement, in such a cowardly manner.

Yemen’s Houthis rebels targeted Panama and Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea. The Iran backed rebels so far have disrupted one trillion dollars of goods that pass through the Red Sea each year over the Israel Hamas war. 

Tom says there is alot of oil on these tankers and they say it could be like a total ecological disaster.

Tom says Jesus is all we have. Says, I’m ready. The last harvest of brothers and sisters until He comes.

Guided by IDF and intelligence, Israel’s Air Force carried out a precise strike on Hamas terrorists operating inside a command and control center inside a college in Gaza city. It was used to direct and conduct terror attacks against IDF troops inside Israel.
