8) The United Nations
Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt first used the term "United Nations" in 1942 for the Allied countries of WWII under the Atlantic Charter. The first conference was in San Francisco on 25 April 1945.
The first meetings of the General Assembly, with 51 nations represented, and the Security Council, took place in Westminster Central Hall in London in January 1946. In this we see the duality of Britain and America.
But the 'land' of the United Nations is in America. Four of the five principal organs are located at the United Nations headquarters on international territory in New York City.
Due to the Jewish push against Britain's policy of restricting Jewish Immigration Britain put a proposal to Partition Mandate Palestine to the United Nations. Many mistake this issue. The UN vote was in favour of Partition, true, and may Jews were content with half a loaf as being better than none. However, the partition was not in accord with the League of Nations endorsed Mandate or Article 80 of the U.N. charter. Since the partition plan was a General Assembly resolution, it is not international law either. Israel was not established by UN vote. Israel was established because there were enough Jews in the Jewish Homeland, as envisioned, to declare a state in 1948. Further though there were comparatively few Jews to fight for that state, a miracle ensured its existence, though some Jewish redeemed and bought land was lost to Jordanian or Egyptian control. In effect the UN vote was pointless (as the UN votes most often are), as the facts were established by the people concerned.
This UN vote to partition was one of the earliest decisions by the UN.
“Since then, it maintained a central role in this region, especially by providing support for Palestinian refugees via the UNRWA and by providing a platform for Palestinian political claims via the CEIRPP, the UNDPR, the SCIIP, the UNISPAL and the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The UN has sponsored several peace negotiations between the parties, the latest being the 2002 Road map for peace... Issues relating to the state of Israel, the Palestinian people and other aspects of the Arab-Israeli conflict occupy a large amount of debate time, resolutions and resources at the United Nations...In recent years[when?], the Middle East was the subject of 76% of country-specific UNGA resolutions, 100% of the Human Rights Council resolutions.

Thus we can see that indeed the Jewish people 'scattered and peeled' and 'terrible' are since 1947 the object of the swift envoys of the nations, who fly to meet often in New York. Is it woe to the UN? The most important point is that the UN is located in a land, in the USA, and that country maintains it.

We were asked what early documents establish that Rosh of Ezekiel 38 is Russia. The answer is in 2 parts, as we explain the trajectory from fulfilled prophecy in history to prophecy yet to be fulfilled.
The Revelation 12 Sign
There is much written about the sun, moon and planets aligning on in September 2017. We have many reasons for suspecting that 2017 will be a prophetically significant year, and the time of the Jewish feast of Sukkot could be more significant than any other time, but we need to understand the scripture before we consider the stars.
There is a great sense that the British are about to sail on the winds of change, and cast off the European shackles which have reduced trade and it's competitive edge. There is a reason why it's 'now', as it is spoken of in the Bible.
As the world becomes focussed on Israel and Jerusalem, with even nations leaders who remote from Israel having an opinion, we might consider that it is said that those who touch Jerusalem, touch God's eye.
