Israel Approves $1.5b Budget For Possible Strike On Iran's Nuclear Facilities by Gospelpreacher1(op): 4:15pm On Oct 22, 2021
NO TO IRAN NUCLEAR:The budget reportedly includes money for a variety of aircraft, intelligence-gathering drones, and specific munitions required for such an operation, which would need to target heavily guarded underground facilities.

Israel has approved a budget of about $1.5 billion (5 billion Israeli New Shekels (ILS)) to train the military for a possible strike against Iran's nuclear program, Israeli media reported on Monday.

The $1.5 billion budget reportedly includes over $930,000 (3 billion ILS) from the previous budget as well as more than $620,000 (2 billion ILS) from the government's next budget, which is expected to be adopted in November.

The report follows a recent statement by the US Air Force that its new "bunker buster," the GBU-72 Advanced 5K Penetrator, had passed a successful test. According to the Israeli media report, the 2,260-kg (5,000 pounds) bomb might be used to hit Iran's nuclear facilities.

The Times of Israel, citing the local Channel 12 report, indicated that the GBU-72 is meant to be carried by a fighter jet or a heavy bomber, and Israel lacks bombers capable of transporting the huge bunker busters currently in the US armory. Instead, a smaller bunker buster bomb, the GBU-28, was reportedly secretly sold to Israel in 2009, despite it being unlikely to penetrate the presumed target of Israel's potential strikes, Iran's Fordow nuclear plant, which is situated deep beneath a mountain.

According to the report, the US test was likely based on Israel's experience destroying Palestinian militant group Hamas' underground tunnel network in Gaza during the conflict in May.

Israel has "greatly accelerated" preparations for action against Iran's nuclear program, according to IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi, who reportedly spoke to the Walla news site in September.

Kohavi reportedly stated that a large chunk of the previously agreed-upon increase in the defense budget was meant for this purpose, noting that it was a considerably more difficult task, requiring more intelligence, operational ability, and armaments.

In January, Kohavi stated that the IDF was developing new "operational plans" for a powerful military strike, and in August, he declared that Iran's nuclear progress has spurred the IDF to "speed up its operational plans" with a new budget, Israeli media reported.

The Jewish State's PM Naftali Bennett said at the UN General Assembly in late September that the Iranian nuclear program "has hit a watershed moment, and so has our tolerance."

"Words do not stop centrifuges from spinning… We will not allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon," he stressed.


Earlier, the US administration said it is still pursuing a joint US-Iranian return to compliance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), from which the US unilaterally withdrew under then-President Trump, but noted that those talks could not and will not go on "indefinitely."

It is so amazing seeing How Key Bible Endtimes Prophecies are being Fulfilled and lining up to be Fulfilled right before our Eyes.

In these Endtimes, Israel is going to be the Focal Point of World Conflicts.

If you are observing the News headlines, you will agree with me that About 3 Key Endtimes Prophecies are at the Verge of Fufillment.

1. Isaiah 17:1, 9, 14 Where Damascus Syria is Destroyed in a single Night.

2. Jeremiah 49:34-39, The Prophecy of Elam. Which infers an Israeli attack on Iran's Nuclear Program.

3. Ezekiel 38&39, the Gog Magog War where a Collation of Nations led by Turkey, Russia, Iran attacks Israel.

GOD ALMIGHTY foreign Policy is Simple.
If you Bless Israel, you will be Blessed!
If you Curse Israel, you will be Cursed.


Dire Disatrous Consequences await the Nations that come against Israel.

We are in the Last of Last Moments.
These are not times to live life anyhow!
These are times to live in the Conciousness of our Eternity.
These are times to Live Prepared , Ready, Watching and Praying, ! Because whether you and I are ready or Not, KING JESUS CHRIST IS COMING !

So, it is the USA that can manage it.
Only country that have used it 2X is the USA and almost used it in Korea war, if not because it was told USSR might used her nuke too on South Korea.

Nuclear weapons give you a no go area status reason NK has few
