The Trump administration blocked a Mossad-backed proposal to support Kurdish fighters in destabilising Iran's regime, revealing deep strategic tensions between Israeli intelligence and U.S. policy toward Tehran. This geopolitical friction is significant as Scripture repeatedly identifies Persia (modern Iran) as a key nation in end-times conflict, particularly in the coalition prophesied to march against Israel. Ezekiel 38:5 names Persia among the nations gathered under Gog's banner, making every power shift surrounding Iran a signal worth watching.
