140 nations expected to vote for Palestinian statehood

When the issue of Palestinian statehood comes before the U.N. on September 23, 140 of the U.N.'s 193 nations are expected to vote in favor of the creation of a Palestinian state.  While this will not officially create such a state, it will give the Palestinians ammunition to pressure nations of the world to place sanctions on Israel until an independent Palestinian state is created.  This vote can bring nothing good for Israel.  We are starting to see all the nations of the world turn against Israel as the prophet Zechariah said would happen.

Given the history of various national disasters, economic disasters, and other disasters striking nations that take foreign policy positions against Israel on the heels of those decisions being made (e.g. Katrina in the U.S.), it will be interesting to track what transpires in these nations that do not stand beside Israel, but vote for this resolution.  According to the article below, the E.U. is still undecided on how they will handle the Palestinian bid in the U.N.  If they do not stand with Israel and something major happens in Israel, then that could have ripple effects that could be felt all over the glove, including here in the U.S.

Thankfully, as of know the United States is not planning on supporting the resolution for Palestinian statehood in the U.N.  Let's pray this does not change.
