Covenant With Many

My Way News - UN nuclear conference votes down anti-Israel resolution
My Way News reports: "An Arab-led attempt to censure Israel over its 'nuclear capabilities' failed Thursday, with states backing the Jewish state at the U.N atomic agency's annual meeting voting down a resolution critical of the Jewish state. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hailed the result as a 'great victory.' Israel has yet to formally declare its widely-known status as a nuclear weapons state — a status that Arab nations and Iran insist presents the greatest threat to Mideast peace. That view is opposed not only by Israel but also the United States and other Western nations that for years have said that Iran's potential to make such arms is the key danger in the region."

Comment: I'm increasingly leaning towards the view that the Covenant With Many of Daniel 9:27 will be a regional security agreement and not (as many have conjectured) a peace treaty with the Palestinians. The Palestinians could have had a peace agreement years ago but they proved to be intransigent. I think other issues have come to the fore now and the region has moved on. After the next war there will be a greater emphasis on arms control and demilitarization. The Iran Agreement has provided a framework for a multilateral arms control process that is phased in over many years, that is most likely what a seven-year CWM will be. Stay tuned, time will tell!
