Watch the 1966 movie "Cast a Giant Shadow" on the internet in commemoration.6 May 2014: Israel has begun the 66th celebration of its Independence Day, so it seems appropriate to bring this forward once again as a fitting anniversary tribute.
15 May 2011: An American Army officer is recruited by the not-yet-existent State of Israel to help them form an army in the closing days of the British Mandate. He is disturbed by this sudden appeal to his Jewish roots. Each of Israel's Arab neighbors have vowed to invade the poorly prepared country as soon as partition is granted. He is made commander of the Israeli forces just before the war begins. Starring: Kirk Douglas, John Wayne, Angie Dickenson, Frank Sinatra, Yul Brenner, Senta Berger
The above linked movie is about certain events which literally fulfilled the prophetic Word of God from the prophet Ezekiel, chapters 36 and 37 and Isaiah 66:8 among other prophetic verses. As can be seen historically in the events of of the seven years between 66 and 73 AD where the prophecy of the angel Gabriel to Daniel was literally fulfilled, and how those events became manifest by the actions of men; the armies of Rome and the "kingdoms" of that time, so too were the events of 1948 brought into literal fulfillment by the actions of men, particularly an American military commander by the name of Colonel David Daniel Marcus, a/k/a Aluf Michael Stone, and the returning remnant of Israel from the 1,900-year long global diaspora. Through these events we can see that the coming fulfillment of Bible prophecy will be manifest with the military men and equipment who are alive and existent right now. These then are the tools God will use to bring about the Greater Israel that is to exist after the final battle of Psalm 83, the subsequent War of Gog-Magog and on into the the final seven years of Daniel's 70th Week and the return of the Lord Jesus Christ in this generation.
Happy Birthday Israel!
Happy Birthday Israel!
