International Conference in Qatar Attacks Israeli Control of Jerusalem

IsraelToday.com by Ryan Jones (excerpts): The Emir of Qatar on Sunday opened the International Conference for the Defense of Jerusalem, where for the next three days Arabs and
Westerners, Muslims and Christians will attack Israel's position that
Jerusalem is its eternal, undivided capital. The official program calls
for discussing "the legal status of Jerusalem before and after the
Israeli occupation [sic], the reality and the future of Jerusalem under
occupation [sic], and the status of the holy places under international
law." Opening the event was Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, who
declared, "The Israeli occupation authorities are using the ugliest and
most dangerous means to implement plans to erase and remove the
Arab-Islamic and the Christian character of east Jerusalem." Many Arabs
view the purchase of land and the building of homes by Jews in areas
claimed as Islamic (or Christian) to be a violation of "human rights."
Another group of people once held similar views; they were called
Nazis. Israeli Arab Knesset member Ahmed Tibi, a former adviser to
Yasser Arafat, was also at the opening of the conference, where he told
Qatari media that "Israel is an occupying power in east Jerusalem and
withholds the Palestinian people's freedom of religion."
A casual stroll through Jerusalem, where a multitude of churches and mosques operate freely, would be enough to discredit Tibi's allegations. What Israel does restrict is the entry of Muslim worshipers who regularly use the Temple Mount as high ground to launch stone attacks on Israeli Jews and foreign Christians. Although to some Muslims, that is a part of their faith, so perhaps Tibi has a point.
Also scheduled to address this international gathering to defend Jerusalem against the Jews were representatives of the UN, the Arab League, and popular Egyptian cleric Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who advocates the subjugation of the world to Islam and the annihilation of the Jews.
The fact that political and religious leaders from around the world would gather to wring their hands over Israel's control of Jerusalem should come as little surprise. "I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding people reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves." Zechariah 12:2-3.
Commentary: According to many prophecies throughout the books of Isaiah, Ezekiel, Zechariah, Hosea, Joel and more, these signs signal the latter days, just preceding the return of Christ. Now is the time to pray, get right with God and align yourself with Israel, because God said, "I will bless those who bless you and curse him who curses you, and in you all the families of the earth will be blessed" Genesis 12:3. The oldest Grant Deed known to man is included in the Old Testament scriptures, when God gave the land of Israel to the Jews, including Jerusalem. Israel and Jerusalem belong exclusively to the Jews, always have and always will, according to the Word of God (Genesis 15:18-21, Genesis 26, Genesis 28, Exodus 3, Exodus 23:31, Numbers 34, Deuteronomy 1:8 and the list goes on).
