Israeli Defense Minister Katz has announced that Israel is developing space-based laser weapons, declaring the nation's intent to become the world's leading country in offensive space warfare capabilities. This marks a significant escalation in the militarization of space, with Israel positioning itself as a dominant military power beyond Earth's atmosphere — a development consistent with the biblical picture of Israel as a supernaturally protected and uniquely empowered nation in the last days. Zechariah 12:3 declares Jerusalem will become an immovable rock for all nations, and Israel's extraordinary military advancement continues to fulfil its role as a nation set apart amid mounting global hostility.
