In order to bring about "Greater Israel," the existing state of Israel has to "conquer" Lebanon, according to an article published on September 25, which was then removed on September 29, by The Jerusalem Post. Israel's biblical mandate under the Torah, according to the Post between September 25-29, could involve blowing Lebanon to smithereens because the country's borders may not be correct. "The recent conflict in Lebanon raises the age-old question regarding the northern borders of biblical Eretz Yisrael," the now-deleted article reads. "Where exactly did Hashem define the boundaries, and are we obligated to conquer those areas? Do the mitzvot of terumah and ma'aser apply to those lands as part of Eretz Yisrael, or are they considered outside the borders?" "The Torah provides clear guidelines regarding the areas we were commanded to conquer when taking possession of the land." Last fall, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used similar language when speaking about how Israel has a mandate, in his view, to "go and smite Amalek," this referring to the people of Gaza who are now under attack by Israel Defense Forces (IDF) – watch the video below: (Related: Did you know that the United States has maintained full control over Iraq's oil revenues ever since the illegal 2003 invasion under George W.

Greater Israel in the end of days

Since most Christians and religious Jews alike seem to recognize that we are now in the last generation, also known as the end times, talk about "Greater Israel" is appearing more and more in the media. The now-deleted Post article is no exception, describing the term in the following way: "[Greater Israel] is sometimes used in political or religious discussions about the ideal or future borders of Israel, often in the context of messianic or Zionist aspirations. Some interpret it as a call for the re-establishment of Israel's biblical borders. However, the concept varies in meaning, ranging from symbolic or spiritual interpretations to literal geographical claims." In short, Greater Israel refers to the biblical boundaries of the Land of Israel as was promised to the Jewish people "in various parts of the Torah." It stretches from the "River of Egypt," which some interpret as the Nile or a smaller river in Sinai, all through modern-day Israel, the West Bank, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Iraq. "On that day, Hashem made a covenant with Avram, saying: To your descendants, I have given this land – from the river of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates," reads a portion of the Torah about the boundaries of Israel. There is debate about whether or not the mandate is still biblical since the Jews were driven out of the land by God way back when. In this last generation, many Jews have returned to modern-day Israel, which under Netanyahu's leadership seems to be forging on towards achieving Greater Israel. Everything Netanyahu is doing right now seems to be aimed at bringing about Greater Israel. As the world knows, Israel's neighbors are not going to just give up the land, so more fighting and more war is on the horizon, all funded in part by U.S. taxpayers. Since the U.S. operates, in many ways, as Israel's military arm, it is expected that soon Israel will expect the U.S. military to help it defeat Lebanon and eventually Iran to bring about Greater Israel.
