President Trump has signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran to end the US-Israel war against Tehran, lifting sanctions and promising a $300bn reconstruction fund, while pro-Israel hawks in Washington mobilise opposition despite reluctance to directly challenge Trump. This dramatic diplomatic reversal — with Iran's nuclear enrichment and missile programmes left unresolved — signals a volatile realignment of Middle East power dynamics that scripture warns will characterise the last days, as nations jostle over Israel's security and Iran's regional ambitions. The Bible warns of a time when peace deals will fail to deliver lasting security for Israel, and when the nations surrounding her will remain a source of unresolved conflict (Ezekiel 38:5; Daniel 9:27; 1 Thessalonians 5:3).
