Netanyahu Says Settlements Would Stay if Re-Elected

Zechariah 12:3 “And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.”

Editor's Note: Jim Bakker teaches to watch Israel closely because it is the prophetic timeclock for the unfolding of Last Days events. In Matthew 24, Israel is the fig tree that the Lord told His people to observe to understand the times. It is like a barometer of what is happening in the nations.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that if he was re-elected they would not be removing Israeli settlements from the West Bank.

“I don’t think withdrawing settlers is practical at the moment,” Netanyahu said. “I don’t think it will happen.”

Netanyahu continued his talk to say that he is still supportive of creation of a Palestinian state that he proposed in 2009 but that because of the actions of Palestinians, the plan is basically rendered meaningless.

The Prime Minister spoke about his issues with President Barack Obama but said that despite the actions of the Obama administration, there is a record amount of support for Israel among U.S. citizens.

Netanyahu said that the skyrocketing housing prices were the fault of previous Ehud Olmert.  He said that during Olmert’s reign, the construction projects in Tel Aviv area came to a halt causing established property prices to jump.
