It is a key component for any student of Bible Prophecy to be knowledgeable of the current events in the Middle East. For example, the conflict at the Gaza Border between the Israelis and the Palestinians; the report on the Israeli Defense Minister meeting with the Russian military leaders in Moscow; and the report that PM Netanyahu gave the order for a preemptive strike on the Iranian Nuclear Program, as they are preparing a Nuclear WMD in Iran; and other news stories in the Middle East. This Middle East News Update will be given to Jimmy DeYoung by Dave Dolan, right here on PTIB.
