When it has peace deals with Egypt and Jordan.

Update:

    Since when was the word of a muslim ( peace deals ) trusted ?

    They believe that a lie to any one who is not a muslim,is a good thing.

    Their Treaties,their words,are not worth the sand they're written on.

    The peace deals with Jordan and Egypt was only brokered in the 60s after the 6 day war when Israel faced invasion on many sides. It was only the bravery of Israel and the help of America that saved the day. They are surrounded by enemies.

    It "had" a peace deal with Egypt as they have changed govt & it is no longer the same..

    Most of the Arab nations want to kill all of the Jews and that is the reason that they are surrounded by enemies. Maybe Jordan is the exception.

    Could have something to do with the fact that when Israel declared independence in 1948, they were attacked by 5 Arab armies. And have been attacked several times after that.

    Egypt and Jordan who have both participated in multiple attacks on Israel with the openly stated goal of wiping out every Jew in Israel? That Egypt and Jordan?

    Yeah.. I can't figure out why they would say they're surrounded by enemies..

  • The tragic thing is, Israel is going to fall at some point for that line of logic and let its guard down. It will be invaded soon after. The good news is, Israel will prevail because of God's divine intervention.

    Every country that borders Israel has either attacked Israel with their national army or harbors Terrorist groups that have attacked them.

    Just because they have a treaty has not stopped repeated attacks

    Elat was hit by missiles fired from Egyptian soil just a couple of weeks ago

    The Muslim nations learned how to broker their peace treaties by paying strict attention to the peace treaty Adolph Hitler negotiated between Germany and Russia during WWII.
