Birth Pains:
Luke 21:9-11: But when ye shall hear of
wars and commotions, be not
terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not
by and by. 10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against
nation, and kingdom against kingdom: 11 And great earthquakes shall be in
divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great
signs shall there be from heaven.
Matthew 24:3-8: And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the
disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these
things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of
the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that
no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am
Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of
wars and rumours of wars: see that ye
be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is
not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and
earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of
sorrows.

Terrorists announce plans to attack U.S.
Militants declare they're preparing to 'hit Americans
without mercy'

JERUSALEM – Four terror groups here, including militants from
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party, which the
U.S. considers moderate, warned today America is now officially a target
for attacks both in the region and abroad.
The terror groups blamed the U.S. for "attacking Muslim land"
in Israel, Iraq and Afghanistan, and for providing support to the Israeli
Defense Forces, which last week accidentally hit a residential area with
artillery fire while trying to stop rockets from being launched from the
northern Gaza Strip into nearby Jewish communities.
Several Palestinian terror leaders in Gaza told WND their organizations
will soon lead attacks against U.S. interests.
"We call upon all mujahedeen in Palestine and around the world to
start hitting Americans without mercy. The Americans are destroying
Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan and are bombarding our Muslim land,"
read a statement signed by Fatah's Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the Popular
Resistance Committees, the Fatah-affiliated Abu Rish Brigades, and a new
group calling itself the Brigades of the Believers.
"The Americans seem not to understand any language but that of blood
and violence. We say the Americans have an artificial culture. It is a
country that doesn't respect the blood of innocents. Americans only take
into consideration the blood of the Jews," read the statement
obtained by WND.
The statement went on to blast the U.S. for vetoing a draft U.N.
resolution yesterday condemning an ongoing Israeli military offensive in
the Gaza Strip. The resolution demanded Israeli troops pull out of the
territory.
The IDF stepped up operations in Gaza last month following reports
hundreds of tons of weapons, including advanced missiles were smuggled
into the territory. Since Israel withdrew from Gaza last summer,
Palestinian groups there have been regularly firing rockets into
neighboring Jewish communities.
The Israeli army last week used artillery shells to target a site in Beit
Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip from which Qassam rockets were fired at
a nearby, populated Jewish city. The Israeli shells strayed and hit a
residential area about a third of a mile from the targeted zone, killing
19 Palestinians. IDF sources said the army was investigating if the wrong
coordinates were fed to the artillery unit and whether the error was
human or technical.
Israel's Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni expressed regret for the deaths,
saying Israel did not set out to harm innocent civilians.
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert apologized for the Palestinian deaths and
called for immediate peace talks with Abbas, stating the Palestinian
leader "will be surprised at how far I am willing to go."
Olmert said he is willing to free "many, many Palestinian
prisoners."
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton said yesterday the U.S. was
"disturbed" by the Arab-backed draft resolution concerning
Israel's Gaza raid, calling the draft "biased against Israel and
politically motivated".
"This resolution does not display an evenhanded characterization of
the recent events in Gaza, nor does it advance the cause of
Israeli-Palestinian peace," Bolton said.
'Americans will very soon be subjected to our plans'
Meanwhile Palestinian terror groups said their organizations will lead
attacks against the U.S.
Abu Ahmed, a senior leader of the Al Aqsa Brigades in Gaza, told WND,
"We asked the Palestinian people and the mujahedeen to target
Americans. American targets will very soon be subjected to our military
plans inside Israel and the territories. We are still deciding whether to
only target U.S. interests in Palestine or also abroad."
Abu Ahmed said some cells of the Al Aqsa Brigades don't support the call
to target Americans, but the majority of the Brigades agree the U.S.
should be attacked.
"Most members (of the Brigades) will participate in attacks within
Israel and the territories even if some members of our organization don't
like this new development (of targeting Americans)," Abu Ahmed said.
The Al Aqsa Brigades is the declared "military wing" of Abbas'
Fatah party. Abu Ahmed is a member of Fatah, which the U.S. largely
considers moderate. The U.S. has provided large sums of aid, weaponry and
advanced military training to Fatah militants.
Abu Abir, spokesman for the Popular Resistance Committees, an umbrella of
major Palestinian terror groups, told WND his group would target
Americans anywhere, including abroad.
"We will reach Americans either inside or outside. We will not
hesitate to target the U.S.," Abu Abir said.
The Committees spokesman claimed the U.S. was using Israel to test
weapons on Palestinian civilians.
"We have proof of American involvement in Beit Hanoun last week.
Every weapon the Americans create, they first give to the Israelis to
examine on innocent Palestinian civilians. The U.S. will pay a price for
this," Abu Abir said.
The Committees previously attacked U.S. interests here. In 2003, it
bombed an American convoy in Gaza, killing three U.S. contractors.
Abu Abir's comments followed a statement last week by Hamas also blaming
the U.S. for Palestinian deaths. The statement warned of upcoming Hamas
attacks against the U.S. and urged Arabs and Muslims to "teach the
American enemy merciless lessons they will not forget."
