It Looks Like Israel Is Getting Ready To “Go It Alone” Against Iran, And That Could Spark an Apocalyptic Spiral of Escalation

The Iranians truly believe that they have won. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has created a global energy crisis, and President Trump doesn’t have any easy options for reopening it. Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are pleading with Trump to bring the war to an end because the midterm elections are coming up. The Iranians understand how much leverage they currently have with Trump, and so they are making all sorts of maximalist demands. But the same is not true with Israel. The Israelis are not concerned about the closure of the Strait of Hormuz because they don’t really use it. In addition, the approaching election in Israel means that it is very important for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to look tough on Iran. As a result, Trump and Netanyahu find themselves moving in two very different directions right now.

While the Trump administration develops an exit strategy, Israel is reportedly getting ready to go it alone against Iran if necessary…

Israel is preparing for the possibility of launching unilateral strikes on Iran if the US-Iran war ends, Israel’s Channel 13 reported on Saturday.

Prophecy Update: A Lack of Progress

By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2026/08/08/a-lack-of-progress-by-daymond-duck/

On July 28, 2026, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu met with Pres. Trump at the White House.

The Jerusalem Post reported that Netanyahu arrived amid growing White House frustration over the lack of progress toward a broader settlement in the Iran conflict and criticism from some of Trump’s supporters who oppose deeper US involvement in the Middle East.

Pres. Trump has not been able to convince Iran to give up its quest for nuclear weapons (they said they will never do it) and to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

As of this writing, it appears as though the war will continue.

Update: On July 29, 2026, following Iran’s proxy attack on U.S. forces in Jordan, the U.S. attacked Iran’s proxies in Iraq. The war is still on.

Netanyahu's rejection of Trump's 15-point Gaza plan unlikely to be final word

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may have categorically rejected the new Board of Peace roadmap to disarm Hamas in Gaza, but that is unlikely to be the final word.

The White House is reportedly "not bothered" by Netanyahu's statement and views it as campaign rhetoric in the run-up to a heated general election.

"We understand Bibi's political needs" the Israeli journalist, Barak Ravid, quotes a senior US official as saying – using a nickname to refer to the Israeli leader. "We have no problem with it as long as he continues to do what we ask – especially regarding restraining attacks in Gaza."

Recent days have seen an apparent pause in Israel's strikes on Gaza – something Hamas had demanded when signing on to the US-backed, 15-point roadmap.

And there is another suggestion that Israel is ready to advance US President Donald Trump's peace plan for Gaza – getting ready for the deployment of the International Stabilization Force (ISF). The force is made up of international troops, with the plan being for them to work with a new Palestinian police force to secure the territory.

The expected construction of the first ISF base is still scheduled to begin amid the ruins of Rafah in southern Gaza at the end of this month, according to Israeli public radio, Kan News, which would allow reconstruction to begin at last.

The Oxford Union Debate on Islam: The Question No One Asked—or Answered

Before asking whether the West should be “suspicious of Islam,” we must first establish what actually MAKES something Islamic—and Islamic law is crystal clear.

I’ve been watching the recent Oxford Union debate on whether the West has the right to be “suspicious of Islam.” Amidst all the bickering, it is interesting to note that no one has taken the time to methodically answer the ultimate question: How does one determine what is—and is not—Islamic? 

Once this all-important question is answered, it becomes clear that “debating”—including by quoting this or that Koran verse, in a positive or negative context—is a fool’s errand. For the question on what is and isn’t Islamic has already settled, and it isn’t connected to the opinions of this or that person, be they pro- or anti-Islamic.

Here, then, is the traditional answer—the Islamic answer—on how one determines what is and is not Islam:

What do the core texts and scriptures of Islam say about the thing in question, let’s call it x? Does the Koran, believed by Muslims to contain the literal commands of Allah, call for or justify x? Do the hadith and sira texts—which purport to record the sayings and deeds of Allah’s prophet, whom the Koran exhorts Muslims to emulate in all ways, to call for or justify x?

If any ambiguity remains, the next question becomes: what is the consensus (ijma) of the Islamic world’s leading authorities concerning x? Here one must turn to the tafsirs, or exegeses of Islam’s most learned men—the ulema—and consider their conclusions. Muhammad himself reportedly said that “My umma [Islamic nation] will never be in agreement over an error.”

Israel rejects Trump's 15-point plan for Gaza, Netanyahu says

 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected US President Donald Trump's 15-point plan for Gaza, stating that no military pull-out will happen until Hamas is "genuinely" disarmed.

Trump's Board of Peace said last month it had reached an agreement for the "complete disarmament" of Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza.

But Hamas said handing over its heavy weapons was contingent on Israel ending "all forms of aggression" and withdrawing its forces from Gaza.

On Sunday, a senior Board of Peace official insisted the US-backed peace plan for the territory remained the only way forward.

Israel has continued to carry out strikes on Gaza since agreeing to an initial ceasefire in the territory last October.

"Israel rejects the 15-point document," Netanyahu said at a cabinet meeting on Sunday.

The Israeli military "will not carry out any withdrawal until Hamas is genuinely disarmed and will continue to thwart threats against our forces and our citizens", he added.

A Hamas official told the BBC on Sunday the group "reaffirms it commitment" to the agreement and it was ready "to engage seriously and responsibly in implementing" the 15-point plan.

They called on mediators to ensure "that all parties comply with what has been agreed".
