TURKEY plays a key role in the events unfolding in the Middle East.  Avi Lipkin (BiblicalAlliance.com) spoke to our tour group in Jerusalem in October, explaining why he sees Turkey as a key player in a war that will involve the entire Middle East. Of course, conflict involving Israel always has prophetic significance.  Avi also explains why the Israeli military appeared to be caught off guard by the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. It wasn’t—but senior officers in the IDF withheld intelligence and first reports of the attack from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in hopes that he’d be blamed and forced to resign. In other words, Israel’s deep state hates Netanyahu just as much as America’s deep state hates Donald Trump—and the deep state would gladly see their countries burn if it forced Trump or Netanyahu out of office.
