President Emmanuel Macron and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman signed a strategic partnership on Monday, December 2, aiming at deepening bilateral ties and de-escalating conflict in the Middle East, including Lebanon

Emmanuel Macron has been on the quiet side lately, but behind closed doors he’s been a whirlwind of activity. Take for example what he did yesterday with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi Arabia. Together the two end times luminaries signed a pact, a covenant if you will, regarding the future of peace in the Middle East, and the rebirth of Lebanon. While all the world is wondering after Donald Trump and the state of America, Macron and MBS are doing what they are destined to do, no, make that predestined to do. Forget the United States, this is where all the Bible action is.

“And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.” Judges 9:15 (KJB)

Nearly 8 years ago, NTEB published our first article on Emmanuel Macron in connection with the biblical man of sin, and the shocking news that this virtually unheard of nobody, Macron, got a full-throated endorsement from none other than Barack Hussein Obama. Shortly after receiving Obama’s blessing, and financial backing from George Soros, Emmanuel Jean Michel Frederic Macron won the office of president of France in a landslide victory of 66.6% over rival Marine Le Pen.

Macron and MBS sign strategic partnership, call for elections in Lebanon

FROM LE MONDE: After a meeting with Prince Mohammed, the de facto ruler of the oil-rich Gulf kingdom, Macron’s office announced the signing of a new partnership aimed at improving cooperation in “defense, energy transition, culture, mobility between the two countries.” The two leaders also “agreed to make every effort to contribute to de-escalation in the region,” including helping to consolidate the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon.

“Together, they called for the holding of presidential elections in Lebanon with the aim of bringing the Lebanese people together and carrying out the reforms necessary for the stability and security of the country,” the statement from Macron’s office said.

Macron touched down in the Saudi capital Riyadh in the afternoon, where he was greeted by an honor guard of sword-holding servicemen and celebratory cannon fire as he disembarked from his plane. Macron’s visit began as France’s less than three-month-old minority government faced the prospect of being forced out by a vote of no confidence in the coming days.

Macron’s state visit is the first by a French president to Saudi Arabia since Jacques Chirac in 2006, cementing what the presidency calls a “very close relationship.”

The French president and Prince Mohammed will see how they “work together” on the conflicts shaking the region, with Lebanon at the “heart of the discussions,” the French presidency said in an earlier statement.

Macron is hoping for Saudi support for the Lebanese army, which is being deployed toward the border with Israel under the ceasefire but is poorly armed and trained. He will also try to win Saudi help to reverse the political disintegration that has plunged Lebanon’s government and economy into catastrophe. READ MORE

The IDF has heightened its state of alert and readiness in anticipation of a possible Iranian response to the recent Israeli strike, military sources said on Monday.

Iran right now is gambling, not at a casino or on the ponies, but gambling all the same on the outcome of the US presidential election on Tuesday. They know that if Kamala Harris is the winner, they will receive a whole lot better treatment from the United States after Tehran launches a missile strike on Israel than if Donald Trump is the winner. So it would appear that they are going to time the attack to coincide with the presidential election. Seeing as the election is only hours away, it could happen literally any time.

“When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?“ Acts 1:6 (KJB)

Israel has been on a roll lately, vanquishing so many of their enemies in a seemingly effortless military campaign. But it does little good to defeat Hamas and Hezbollah if you leave the country that created these terror networks, Iran, in power and in place to restock them. Has the time finally arrived for Israel to go head-to-head with Iran? Hopefully, yes, it has. The Iranian people even want to see an end to the regime that has plagued their nation for the past 45 or so years, and most would happily welcome that outcome. The next 24 hours are going to tell an amazing end times story, and we will bring you events as they unfold. Am Yisrael Chai.

IDF heightens state of alert in Israel anticipation of Iranian missile strike to coincide with US election

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: This increased vigilance includes daily situational assessments across all branches and divisions of the IDF General Staff, including the Home Front Command. Intelligence gathering efforts have been intensified through various methods involving the entire intelligence community. At the same time, the Israeli air force remains on high alert, focusing on its control and air defense systems.

“The presence of hundreds of American soldiers in Israel operating the THAAD missile defense system underscores the close cooperation between the IDF and US forces stationed here,” a military official noted.

Deputy Chief of Staff Maj.-Gen. Amir Baram has also strengthened cooperative ties with his counterparts at US CENTCOM headquarters to prepare for various scenarios. IDF sources emphasized, “Despite various reports in foreign media, there is no confirmed information about the exact timing of a response.”

They further assessed that Iran is still considering its options for retaliation and evaluating the scale of their response. The IDF has not ruled out the possibility of an Iranian response from Syria, Yemen, or Iraq, rather than directly from Iran.

Additionally, security officials are not discounting the possibility of Iranian attempts to target senior Israeli figures both domestically and abroad. Security officials pointed out that Iran is likely weighing US warnings carefully while testing the limits, particularly during the American election period.

“An Iranian attack on Israel could impact the US elections, as Israel is deeply embedded in the political narratives of both Democratic and Republican campaigns,” one source explained.

Military sources confirmed that, despite assessments suggesting that the US elections might delay any Iranian response by at least a few days, the IDF has strategically reinforced its detection, warning, air defense, intelligence, and operational systems within the General Staff. READ MORE

Iran To Use ‘Secret Bombs’ To Attack Israel? Explosive Report After Chilling Nuclear Warning

Iran is reportedly preparing for a significant attack on Israel, planning to utilise more powerful warheads that have not been deployed previously. This escalation follows recent Israeli airstrikes on Iranian territory, with an Egyptian official revealing that Tehran has privately warned Cairo of a “strong and complex” response to IDF provocation. The upcoming military operation is expected to involve Iran’s regular military forces, marking a shift from earlier missile attacks carried out solely by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on April 13-14 and October 1. This potential change in strategy underscores the increasing tensions in the region and the serious implications for both Iran and Israel.

Five explosions were reported heard across Tehran and the nearby city of Karaj early on Saturday morning, according to Iranian media, in what is alleged to be the beginning of an Israeli retaliatory attack on Iran.

Earlier today, we told you about the shipment of US F-16s that arrived in the Middle East to be put in place to defend against an attack from Iran after Israel began retaliatory air strikes against the terror regime. About 45 minutes ago Israel time, those strikes began and they are precise and deadly. Early reports coming in are saying some of the strikes are occurring near Iranian nuclear facilities.

“The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.” Daniel 8:20 (KJB)

It appears as of this writing, that the attacks are currently ongoing, and are meant to be a very strong deterrent to Iran. The Biden administration for their part is trying, as usual, to prevent any real damage to Tehran by Israel. Hopefully, Netanyahu will see past that and go and do what he knows must be done. Wiping out Hamas and Hezbollah only works if the head of the snake, Iran, is neutralized as well. Now the long-awaited reprisal has begun, the only question is will Iran respond, and if so, how hard? This is a breaking news story and this article will be updated as new information comes in.

Israel confirms it has struck Iran, as explosions rock Tehran

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: Israeli officials confirmed to Army Radio that Israel had started striking targets across Iran. “The IDF is currently attacking precise targets in Iran,” IDF Spokesperson Daniel Hagari said in a statement. “This is in response to persisting attacks by the Iranian regime on the State of Israel.”The IDF is completely prepared in attack and in defense. We are following the developments from Iran and its proxies in the region.”

IDF says airstrikes – 4 weeks after Iran fired 200 ballistic missiles at Israel – are response to regime’s attacks; US backs Israeli ‘self-defense’; no change to home front guidelines

Reports of explosions at the Imam Khomeini International Airport in the Iranian capital were also received. Arab media reported that Israel attacked the location of the headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps in Iran.

Looks like Israel’s attack was a “preparation”:

Now that Iran’s air defense is fully blinded, Israel can freely attack its nuclear facilities.

There were no planes flying over Syria or northern Iraq during the time of the suspected attack. Iran closed its airspace following the attack, according to Maariv. The White House was notified shortly before the strikes on Tehran began, according to Fox News. Israel’s Security Cabinet also convened in order to approve the strikes. Karaj one of the cities where explosions were heard contains one of Iran’s nuclear power plants.

On Friday, a fire was reported at an Iranian Defense Ministry site in Tehran, although the Tehran Fire Department denied any connection. Explosions were also heard in Syria and Iraq, and air defense systems were reportedly activated, according to Maariv. Syrian media confirmed that Syrian air defense confronted aerial “hostile targets” around Damascus early Saturday morning. READ MORE
