Paperback: 320 pages Publisher: FaithWords (August 25 2005) Costumer Rating: Read an Excerpt Chapter 1: In the Eye of the Prophetic Storm Chapter 1: In the Eye of the Prophetic Storm Chapter 1: Has America Abandoned Israel? Book Description There's a reason for the hostility of Islamic fundamentalists toward America. It is rooted in bigotry, the ancient prejudice against Jews. From the time George Washington placed his hand upon a Bible and swore the oath to become the first president of the United States, the Jews-and, more important, a Jewish homeland-have occupied a crucial place in America's history. Now internationally renowned Middle East expert and biblical scholar Mike Evans traces the efforts of American Christians to help establish a Jewish State, describing in fascinating detail the events that led in 1948 to the birth of the nation of Israel. The hatred of the Arab world for the West-and toward America in particular-can be traced entirely to this nation's identification with Israel. America flirts with danger, Evans says, when it accommodates the Arab world merely for the sake of oil. As God said to Abraham, "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse." Yet, says Evans, referring to Israel and the rebuilding of Babylon, or Iraq, "America is cursing what God has blessed and blessing what God has cursed. Does the Bible reveal what will happen to a nation that does this? A thousand percent yes!" About the Author
