I dug this article up that I saw one time before, China ia a key nation in the Valley of decission what we call Armegeddon. Now think upon all of the things I have been posting in relation to the end times the last hours if you will. The Palestinians are going to the United Nations in search of statehood being declared for them based on 1967 borders based on the 1949 Israel wars designed by the U.N post war. Now whether one wishes to believe it or not this will bring about the last battle and the return of the Lord Yeshua (Jesus) If the U.N grants this aapplication of Abbas then Israel will be divided up like a turkey on Thanksgiving a giving away of the Land of Abraham and this is already angering God and you can see it in the earthquakes, Volcanic eruptions, Dead birds, dead fish, Earthcracks,Severe storms, Severe solar activity, Severe weather shifts,Floods, Famines, Global financial collapse, Uprisings of diseases,Contaminated Oceans and water, People going mad around the globe, Magnetic pole shifts, Radioactive contamination and more to come.
Wake up everyone this is not a coincidence we are on the very doorstep of eternity and the return of the Christ Yeshua.
China to Back Palestinian Statehood

China has decided to back the Palestinian bid for statehood in the UN next month:
China says it supports a Palestinian plan to seek full membership in the United Nations next month…China’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement Thursday that Wu Sike, its special envoy on the Middle East, told Palestinian leaders in a meeting in Ramallah that Beijing and the Chinese people have always supported the Palestinian cause.

Israel, as reported here earlier (see Israel: Forced Peace Plan to Cause World War) has opposed this. Iran, which favors it, claimed:
TEHRAN – The creation of a universally-recognized Palestinian state would be just a first step towards wiping out Israel, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Friday.
www.jpost.com/IranianThreat/News/Article.aspx?id=235515
With the Palestinians getting more and international support for their cause and Israel getting less support than it historically has from the USA, this is setting the stage to drive the Israelis to get involved in some type of deal with the Europeans. Such as deal is foretold in Daniel:
26 And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate (Daniel 9:26-27).
There are several reasons that this “prince” is referring to the leader of the developing European empire (see King of the North and Europa, the Beast, and the Book of Revelation). But perhaps the main one to mention here is that it was the people of the Roman Empire of the 1st century that fulfilled the portion of Daniel 9:26 as they destroyed the city (Jerusalem) in 70 A.D. And it is the “prince” coming from that people that verse 27 is referring to. The European Union includes much of the land and peoples that were part of the ancient Roman Empire. Hence, this prophecy tells us that a leader from the area of the old empire, will be a lower level leader (prince) who will somehow confirm a deal about 3 1/2 years before the great tribulation.
Why is this believed to be a peace deal? There are several reasons, but notice some other scriptures that discuss this leader:
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. (Daniel 8:25, KJV).
23 And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people. 24 He shall enter peaceably, even into the richest places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his forefathers: he shall disperse among them the plunder, spoil, and riches; and he shall devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time. (Daniel 11:23-24, NKJV)
So this leader gives people the impression that there will be “peace” and is involved in some type of deal. Term is translated as “peace” in Daniel 8:25 is from the Hebrew term shalvah and essentially means security. In other words, this leader will destroy “many” who are under the impression that they are secure because of some type of security arrangement. Such arrangements are now commonly referred to as peace deals.
Anyway, since China is a major power, its public endorsement of the Palestinian statehood bid will increase pressure on the Israelis to make some type of a deal in the region at some point. Interestingly, as it now stands, a survey found that 81% of Israelis already want their nation to join the European Union (see 81% of Israelis Want to Join the EU). Accepting some type of peace deal may be part of the price for serious consideration.
Furthermore, pressure from China and others in the UN may be a factor in getting the Israelis to accept a European confirmed peace deal as Israel may decide that it does not have enough other friends to continue as it has.
Watch (Mark 13, Matthew 24).

Abbas to seek full U.N. membership for Palestinians

Abbas vows push for Palestinian state
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
NEW: Hamas warns Abbas not to go to the United Nations
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to speak at the U.N. Security Council
Israel is calling on Palestinian leaders to return to peace talks, a spokesman says
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas presses for full U.N. membership
(CNN) -- Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said he will pursue a full United Nations membership bid during a speech Friday that was likely meant to both make the case for membership and manage domestic expectations.
"We are going to the United Nations to attain full membership" from the U.N. Security Council, Abbas told an audience in Ramallah, tempering his rhetoric by adding that "we are not going to bring independence. Let's not exaggerate.
"We will continue to negotiate," he said.
Abbas says he wants the Palestinian territories "to be represented in its natural borders," calling disputed territories inhabited by Israeli settlers "illegal."
"We want a seat at the United Nations, and we don't want anything more," Abbas said.
He says Palestinian leadership does not seek to "isolate the state of Israel, but rather isolate the policies of Israel," saying he will head to the United Nations headquarters in New York "carrying an olive branch with us."
Regev: Issue of settlements 'red herring'
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is also expected to speak next Friday at the United Nations, has said the move could complicate the peace process and further destabilize the region.
"We have been calling all along for the Palestinians to return to negotiations," said Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev.
Regev called the issue of settlements "a red herring" that he says Palestinian leaders have used to avoid talks with Israel, deciding to grandstand on the international stage instead of re-engaging in peace negotiations.
Hamas, the Palestinian organization that holds sway in Gaza, also was critical of Abbas on Friday, saying he is showing a willingness to negotiate and acknowledgement of Israel, which would "deprive the Palestinian people from their right to come back to their homeland." "We are warning him not to go," said senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Zahar. "This is going to make more division inside the Palestinian people."
As regional pressure mounts over the prospective bid next week, U.S. diplomats have been scrambling to head off the burgeoning controversy, though some analysts suggest the decision to take the vote to the Security Council could reflect a political posturing by the Palestinian leader.
Abbas concluded his speech Friday by acknowledging "other options," presumably referring to his government's ability to weigh a host of decisions at the U.N. General Assembly next week, which may or may not include the full membership bid.
"As for the other options, we have not taken a decision," he said.
While the United States has vowed to veto a full membership application, should it actually come before the U.N. Security Council next Friday, the Palestinian government could also go to the General Assembly, where only a majority vote would be needed to gain a lesser status, that of a permanent observer state, similar to the position that the Vatican currently holds. A vote in its favor would be all but assured.
The Palestinians currently hold the status of a permanent observer entity. As an observer, the delegation can speak in the General Assembly but not vote.
A successful vote in either body will not lead to an established "state" with defined borders, but would afford the Palestinian government an upgraded international status allowing them to pursue legal actions against Israel.
Abbas is expected to personally submit the request for full membership.
Wake up everyone this is not a coincidence we are on the very doorstep of eternity and the return of the Christ Yeshua.
