FINAL WARNING: The Shining Star
‘Allenby’ to mean ‘Allah Nebi’ (‘Prophet of God’), and took it as a sign
that God was against them. They were also worried about the
accompanying airplanes (from the 14th Bomber Squadron of the Royal
Flying Corp), which they had never seen before. They were thinking
about the promise in Isaiah 31:5: “As birds flying, so will the Lord of
Hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; and passing
over he will preserve it.” The Turks left the city.
An interesting fact to add to this narrative can be found in Daniel
12:12. Some believe that the 1335 ‘days’ may refer to the actual date
that Palestine was delivered from Moslem rule. Since the land in
Daniel’s day was under Moslem rule, the date given would most likely
be in Moslem terms, not in Jewish or Gregorian. A coin minted in
Turkey showed the Gregorian date of 1917 on one side, and the
Moslem date of 1335 on the other side. Is this a fulfillment of prophecy?
After the War, the 1919 Paris Peace Conference at Versailles
established the League of Nations, who approved the Balfour
Declaration and granted a mandate for Great Britain to govern the
Palestine area. Within a couple of years, a Select Committee on
Estimates, of the British House of Commons, reported that “large
numbers of Jews, almost amounting to a second Exodus, have been
migrating from Eastern Europe to the American zones of Germany and
Austria with the intention in the majority of cases of finally making
their way to Palestine. It is clear that it is a highly organized movement,
with ample funds and great influence behind it, but the Subcommittee
was unable to obtain any real evidence who are the real instigators.” A
U.S. Senate War Investigating Committee report said that a “heavy
migration of Jews from Eastern Europe into the American Zone of
Germany is part of a carefully organized plan financed by special
groups in the United States.” Even though nobody was to leave the
Soviet Union without government permission, many Jews were
allowed to leave, so they could return to their homeland.
In 1937, a Royal Commission was established by England which
divided the country of Palestine into three sections: Jewish, Arab and
English. With the increased tension, the UN Security Council later went
soft, and the Truman Administration reversed their earlier support,
urging that the partition proposal be suspended, in lieu of a
‘trusteeship.’ Jewish terrorist groups, such as the Stern gang, and the
