                             Says Interior Minister
Fredi Winkler



                       Dear friends of Israel:
                       When the American Vice-President Joe Biden
                       visited Israel, the Israeli Minister of the
                       Interior, Eli Ishai, declared that the
                       government       has      approved       further
                       construction in Ramat Shlomo, one of the
                       Jerusalem suburbs beyond the so-called
                       “Green Line.” This move has caused lasting
                       tensions in the relationship between Israel
                       and the United States.
                         Afterwards, the Israeli Prime Minister
                       Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to America
                       because he was invited as a speaker to the
                       conference of American Jewish organizations
                       (AIPAC). During his visit, he also met
                       President Obama. Netanyahu was obviously
                       told that Israel could no longer look to the
                       United States for unlimited support in all
                       areas of Israeli policy. In her speech to the
                       attendants of AIPAC, Secretary of State
                       Hillary Clinton presented the new position of
                       the Obama administration. She said that
                       Israel could be put under pressure if
                       necessary, but that the security interests of the
                       Jewish state should always be taken into
                       account. Mrs. Clinton also explained that the
                       status quo of the last decade has not lead to
                       permanent security—neither for Israel nor
                       for the Palestinians, and therefore this
                       situation would have to be changed. Unlike
                       its predecessors, the current US
                       administration sees the Palestinian-Israeli
                       conflict as a part of the complex power

Editor’s Note


structure in the Middle East and as an important factor for the
strategic interests of the United States. It is surprising that the
representatives of the Jewish organizations hailed Mrs. Clinton’s
speech with standing ovations.
  Until now, no predecessor of President Obama has demanded
a freeze of settlement construction for Jerusalem. If Israel is not
ready to make definite concessions towards a two-state solution,
however, its isolation within the international community will
grow more intense. It is already becoming obvious that Israel will
come under greater pressure and affliction. In spite of everything,
President Obama, Vice President Biden, Middle-East envoy
George Mitchell and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have
solemnly declared that the United States is still committed to
Israel’s security. However, the shifts in the international balance
of power have led to a situation where the conflict between Israel
and the Palestinians is no longer regarded as a regional problem.
Within the last decade, this struggle has become part of a global
security strategy. A Jewish commentator said about this new
situation that the Israeli Prime Minister should reflect on how he
can convince his government coalition into acting for the long-
term interests of the State of Israel.
  During his election campaign, Barack Obama successfully used
the word “change” as his motto. Now the President of the United
States seems to be determined to make this change in
international politics, and especially relating to Israel. In spite of
the continuing changes that happen in this world and even more
so in the political arena, we should put our trust in God and His
Word, because He is like a rock that neither staggers nor falls.
  Sharing with you an unwavering faith in this Rock that gives us
security in the storms of time, I send you a warm Shalom,

                             Meanwhile, Vice Prime Minister Silvan
                           Shalom also said that construction in
                           Jerusalem is “unconditional,” adding that
                           Israel is dealing with the regulations and pro-
                           cedure.
                             “How did we get to the point that building in
                           Jerusalem has turned into a stumbling block? If

                             Shalom added that Prime Minister
                           Netanyahu “has a mandate from the Jewish
                           people and we don’t have the option of making

          RESERVE 24-26 OCTOBER 2010
          FOR OUR ANNUAL PROPHECY CONFERENCE!
“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden
themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together
against it” (Zechariah 12:3).
    Although this prophecy was made about 2,500 years ago, it is more applicable today than ever.
Three times the word “ALL” appears in that verse, and that is precisely what we are seeing today.
There is not one nation on the face of the earth agreeing with the Jews that Jerusalem is the capital
city of the State of Israel. That fact demonstrates a wonderful, marvelous word of prophecy!
    We may be concerned about many things that are transpiring before our own eyes, and rightly
so, but above and beyond that, we may rejoice as children of God, having the knowledge that He is
fulfilling His plan in His time, and we are witnesses thereof.
    This prophecy conference promises to be another highlight in our long tradition of Bible confer-
ences. Let each of us be in prayer in preparation for these meetings, based on the promises of the
Lord, “Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Let
us remember the words of Revelation 1:3: “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words
of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.”

2 ½ days of intensive study of His prophetic Word.

  • 4. Fredi Winkler Dear friends of Israel: When the American Vice-President Joe Biden visited Israel, the Israeli Minister of the Interior, Eli Ishai, declared that the government has approved further construction in Ramat Shlomo, one of the Jerusalem suburbs beyond the so-called “Green Line.” This move has caused lasting tensions in the relationship between Israel and the United States. Afterwards, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu traveled to America because he was invited as a speaker to the conference of American Jewish organizations (AIPAC). During his visit, he also met President Obama. Netanyahu was obviously told that Israel could no longer look to the United States for unlimited support in all areas of Israeli policy. In her speech to the attendants of AIPAC, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton presented the new position of the Obama administration. She said that Israel could be put under pressure if necessary, but that the security interests of the Jewish state should always be taken into account. Mrs. Clinton also explained that the status quo of the last decade has not lead to permanent security—neither for Israel nor for the Palestinians, and therefore this situation would have to be changed. Unlike its predecessors, the current US administration sees the Palestinian-Israeli conflict as a part of the complex power 4 NEWS FROM ISRAEL
  • 5. Editor’s Note structure in the Middle East and as an important factor for the strategic interests of the United States. It is surprising that the representatives of the Jewish organizations hailed Mrs. Clinton’s speech with standing ovations. Until now, no predecessor of President Obama has demanded a freeze of settlement construction for Jerusalem. If Israel is not ready to make definite concessions towards a two-state solution, however, its isolation within the international community will grow more intense. It is already becoming obvious that Israel will come under greater pressure and affliction. In spite of everything, President Obama, Vice President Biden, Middle-East envoy George Mitchell and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have solemnly declared that the United States is still committed to Israel’s security. However, the shifts in the international balance of power have led to a situation where the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians is no longer regarded as a regional problem. Within the last decade, this struggle has become part of a global security strategy. A Jewish commentator said about this new situation that the Israeli Prime Minister should reflect on how he can convince his government coalition into acting for the long- term interests of the State of Israel. During his election campaign, Barack Obama successfully used the word “change” as his motto. Now the President of the United States seems to be determined to make this change in international politics, and especially relating to Israel. In spite of the continuing changes that happen in this world and even more so in the political arena, we should put our trust in God and His Word, because He is like a rock that neither staggers nor falls. Sharing with you an unwavering faith in this Rock that gives us security in the storms of time, I send you a warm Shalom, -Fredi Winkler MAY 2010 5

Although this prophecy was made about 2,500 years ago, it is more applicable today than ever. Three times the word “ALL” appears in that verse, and that is precisely what we are seeing today. There is not one nation on the face of the earth agreeing with the Jews that Jerusalem is the capital city of the State of Israel. That fact demonstrates a wonderful, marvelous word of prophecy! We may be concerned about many things that are transpiring before our own eyes, and rightly so, but above and beyond that, we may rejoice as children of God, having the knowledge that He is fulfilling His plan in His time, and we are witnesses thereof. This prophecy conference promises to be another highlight in our long tradition of Bible confer- ences. Let each of us be in prayer in preparation for these meetings, based on the promises of the Lord, “Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Let us remember the words of Revelation 1:3: “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.” 2 ½ days of intensive study of His prophetic Word. In case you have not registered for this conference, we urge you to do so soon. Don’t miss these LANDMARK RESORT HOTEL This fine facility, in the heart of Myrtle Beach, offers extremely favorable rates for confer- ence participants. There are various categories of rooms and suites available. Some have full kitchen facilities, but all rooms are equipped with a kitchen sink, refrigerator and microwave oven.
