Trump Administration May Release Peace Plan Before Israeli Election

With the dispatchment of Trump's new special envoy Avi Berkowitz to Israel (who has replaced Jason Greenblatt), there are growing signs that the administration may be doubling down and set to reveal the new Middle East peace plan, colloquially called the "Deal of the Century," within the next eight weeks.  While it can't be denied that the peace plan has been shelved several times, this time may be different as summarized by author Joel Rosenberg:

Trump’s peace plan is on the way: Is Israel ready? With 10 months to the presidential election in the US, the Trump administration is considering presenting its peace plan in the coming weeks, even ahead of the March 2 Knesset election. https://t.co/uJlbFKoWfj

It's simply an issue of timing.  The third Israeli election will be held on March 2nd, the outcome of which is unclear.  And U.S. elections are in 10 months.  If the Trump Administration truly intends to unveil the plan, the next eight weeks may be the only time to do it if they want it revealed in Trump's first term.

Now we're left wondering, if the plan is indeed released before March 2nd, how might the timing coordinate with other prophetic events?  On April 3rd the world will witness a historic conjunction of Venus and Pleiades that I wrote about here.  May 14th will be the 72nd anniversary of the reestablishment of the nation of Israel, and a marker showing that when factoring in the seven years of the coming Tribulation, time is quickly running out if we apply the upper length of a generation (80 years; see Ps. 90:10) and Jesus' Parable of the Fig Tree.

As if a tragic reminder that this final generation is passing away and also that the timing pertains to Israel, a 72 year old man was swept away and killed by historic flooding in Israel on Sunday.  And as I've mentioned before, Psalm 90:10 explicitly defines a generation as "70, or if by strength 80."  The Parable of the Fig Tree is about Israel's final generation that will be in the land when their Messiah, Jesus Christ, returns.  Israel's Prime Minister is currently 70 years old and the country's President is 80.  This incredible "coincidence" only persists until September 9, 2020.

It does seem that God is drawing our attention to this year.  2020 started off with a bang in the form of the Iran-coordinated attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad that began on New Year's Eve and ended on New Year's Day.  The U.S. response was the killing of the world's top terrorist mastermind and highest ranking general in Iran, Qassim Soleimani, on January 3rd.

Iran subsequently promised a major retaliatory strike in the coming days and weeks.  This past Sunday, January 5th, President Trump warned Iran that any further attacks would result in a disproportionate attack against 52 strategic and cultural Iranian targets.  That same day, the possibly Iranian-linked terrorist group al Shabaab struck a Kenyan naval base housing American soldiers.  Three Americans were killed.

At the same time, the largest wildfires in Australian history continue to rage.  Over 32,000 square miles have burned, resulting in a massive plume visible from outer space.

That's a scorched area the size of Portugal, not much smaller than England.  Not only is the fire the largest and most widespread in Australia's recorded history, but it has also become the third largest ever recorded on earth, only surpassed by the 2003 Siberian fires and the 1997 Indonesian fires.  It may surpass both.

Also, with the landslide victory of Boris Johnson's Tories in the U.K., Brexit looks like it is set to occur on January 31st.  The E.U. will experience its first major rupture, which could pave the way for more countries to follow, including Poland.  And as I mentioned earlier, so far in 2020 Israel has been experiencing historic flooding.  In the country's largest city of Tel Aviv, the area has received 20% of total annual rainfall in just several hours.  A number of people have been killed across the country.

The "Flood" is coming.  Get on board the Ark.
