The man who leads our Tuesday night Bible Study shared with us an interesting comment one of his co-workers made earlier that day.
Background --- As in may places co-workers discuss many different topics. Often, here in the Middle East, when the topic is political, the subject of Israel comes up. Though I have no idea, nor did this man share what they have previously talked about concerning Israel but on this day the topic of Iran was the subject. The 2 comments made during the discussion which caught this man by surprise were... (1)"We are now more afraid of Iran than we are of Israel." (2)"We stand in complete opposition to the stopping the sanctions on Iran."
We did not discuss it much last night but I did take away these few thoughts...
1 - I did not know there was a fear of Israel from her enemies.
2 - I am glad our friends here see the importance of the sanctions.
3 - If those here wish the sanctions continue, shouldn't the USA be listening to those who have the most to lose?
SIDE NOTE:
Now with the news that Russia is giving Iran weapons, shouldn't there be an even greater concern and understanding is the danger of - the evil of - threat of Iran towards anyone who opposes their agenda?
