Beyond Cairo, Israel Sensing a Wider Siege

Prophecy Sign: Israelincreasingly more isolated which will lead to the Jewish state being on its own against the world at the last days.

Does Israelhave any friends left in the middle-east? Egyptis in the throws of political instability with calls from millions of its citizens to end the peace treaty with Israel. Turkey has done a 180 in just a few months and is now ready to take on Israelmilitarily over the Palestinian cause as well as over the Mediterranean natural gas reserves. That about leaves Jordanwho still hold a peace treaty with Israeland so far has not seen the large scale uprisings that most every other Arab Muslim state has.

Interesting to note that according to bible prophecy Jordanseems to escape the clutches of the Antichrist, and in Jordanremnant of Jews will escape to an area called Petraduring the latter half of the Tribulation.

On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusaleman immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. Zechariah 12:3 NIV

From the articles:
With its Cairo embassy ransacked, its ambassador to Turkey expelled and the Palestinians seeking statehood recognition at the United Nations, Israel found itself on Saturday increasingly isolated and grappling with a radically transformed Middle East where it believes its options are limited and poor. The diplomatic crisis, in which winds unleashed by the Arab Spring are now casting a chill over the region, was crystallized by the scene of Israeli military jets sweeping into Cairo at dawn on Saturday to evacuate diplomats after the Israeli Embassy had been besieged by thousands of protesters. It was an image that reminded some Israelis of Iran in 1979, when Israel evacuated its embassy in Tehran after the revolution there replaced an ally with an implacable foe.

The attack on the Israeli embassy in Cairo has brought into sharp relief Israel's increasing isolation in a region still grappling with the changes of the Arab Spring. Israel was forced to evacuate its ambassador and most of its diplomatic staff from Cairo this weekend after hundreds of Egyptian protesters tore down a security wall protecting the Nile-side embassy, ransacked its files and burned an Israeli flag. It came less than a week after Turkey, Israel's other major ally in the Muslim world, announced it was expelling the Israeli ambassador and downgrading its relationship to the lowest possible level after a deadly skirmish involving a Turkish aid vessel that was attempting to deliver supplies in defiance of Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip. With another potential predicament brewing later this month when the Palestinians are expected to request membership and statehood at the United Nations, Israeli-Arab relations appear to be plunging to their lowest point in years.
