Most Bible prophecy revolves around Israel and Jerusalem. That shouldn't come as a shock, seen as how God has made it quite clear that Israel is His chosen nation. Just as I have outlined the Jewish wedding and the Jewish feasts as being particularly interesting in prophecy, so too should we be looking to Israel and Jerusalem themselves.
The above video is 10 minutes long, but shows how many countries are banding together to declare Palestine an independent state. What does that have to do with anything?
In Zechariah 12:3, it states:
3And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
What does this "peace" accord outline? That Jerusalem be divided back to the 1967 borders, giving East Jerusalem to the Palestinians for their capital. And what's going on now? MANY countries of the world are recognizing Palestine, and the UN has given Israel and the PA until September to settle their differences.
What else does the Bible say about the last days and "peace"?
Daniel 9:27:
27And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week
"He" is the Antichrist. "One week" is seven years.
The maker of the above video suggests that we Christians have always thought these prophecies would be fulfilled by Israel naively making a peace accord with a "Messiah"-like public figure.
But perhaps come September, Israel will be forced by the world to recognize the Palestinian state because the rest of the world will recognize it.

Hmm...
I believe the momentum of the uprisings in the Middle East is now bringing about Bible prophecy.
