21Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled." - Luke 21:20-24

God brought this judgment upon them in AD 70 and evicted them with the Roman invasion. Then the Jewish people were scattered and led away captive into all nations as Jesus prophesied. This eviction is to continue throughout the entire time of the Gentiles. Biblical Israel will not be restored until the bodily return of the Messiah. Jerusalem will continue to be bombed and trodden under foot by the Gentiles until Messiah returns. It's part of God's judgment against them. The UN isn't God...so it had no right to try to lift that judgment and move into trying to rebuild the nation of Israel at the request of non-Christian Zionists. I predict that if Christ tarries....the Jews in modern Israel are in grave danger because God's judgment will stand firm...there may be another Jewish diaspora.

We've stepped between God and the Jews. He issued a judgment against them 2,000 years ago and we're trying to rebuild them.

When Biblical Israel is restored it will be an act of God at the return of the Messiah...not an act of the United Nations.

You bring up some very excellent points. I have always wondered why people support Israel politically for biblical reasons. I understand praying for Israel, but doing everything politically in the favor of Israel because they are called God's chosen people in the Bible seemed confused to me.
