In 1984, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said, “Now that nation called Israel has never had any peace in 40 years and she will never have any peace because there can be no peace structured on injustice, thievery, lying and deceit and using the name of God to shield your dirty religion under His holy and righteous name.” 

Minister Farrakhan was universally criticized and labeled an anti-Semite, a racist and more, a designation that has unfairly lingered on him for over four decades. Now, 41 years later, every word the Minister spoke is truer today than it has ever been.  And the world is witnessing his words come to life. 

If we closely examine the State of Israel today, no honest historian, credible religious scholar, or casual observer of world affairs can conclude anything other than what Minister Farrakhan summarized more than 40 years ago is the actual truth.

Though not a prophet, his words were prescient. As Minister Farrakhan predicted, Israel has become an international pariah. The leader of the country, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, was issued an arrest warrant by the International Criminal Court (ICC) and he can be incarcerated if he were to travel to certain world capitals for the acts of genocide Israel has committed against the Palestinian people in Gaza. 

Many people around the world have come to realize the truth of Minister Farrakhan’s proclamation and are now in agreement with him. The United Nations has roundly condemned Israel for its inhuman and aberrant behavior, and the only nation that is unwilling to condemn and criticize the racist apartheid State of Israel is the United States of America, its chief benefactor. 

Minister Farrakhan was among the first to announce that Israel knew, in advance, that Hamas—a creation of Netanyahu and the government of Israel—that Israel was going to be attacked by Hamas and did nothing to stop the attack.

Minister Farrakhan was a significant contrarian on this issue. His insight alerted his global audience to Israel’s complicity in the October 7, 2023, attack. His Saviours’ Day 2024 message (“What Does Allah The Great Mahdi And The Great Messiah Have To Say About The War In The Middle East?” available to view on media.noi.org) is illustrative of this point. 

The New York Times, the BBC, Al Jazeera, Candace Owens, The Young Turks and a plethora of other media, public figures and government outlets have exposed Israel’s complicity in the October 7 attack that led to 1,200 of its own citizens being slaughtered.  

Minister Farrakhan reasoned that Netanyahu willfully permitted the attack to take place to justify his desire to invade Gaza and obliterate the entire area. History has shown that this is exactly what Netanyahu has done.

Gaza has become a wasteland (See the YouTube video, “IDF Extends Onslaught as West Bank Burns”). Israel had been warned a year in advance that an attack had been planned. In addition, Egypt had forewarned the Israelis about an upcoming attack. 

Their intelligence reports were ignored (see also the YouTube video “IDF Soldier Suggests Israel let October 7 Happen”). According to Drop Site News, “Israel’s Channel 7 News identified the IDF whistleblower as Sholomo Jeremy Scahill.”  

Israel is disintegrating internally. The Times of Israel reported that 500,000 Israelis have fled the country during the first six months of the war with Gaza. That represents a 285% spike in Israelis fleeing the country. Not only does that signal a tax burden on the country, but it also represents a brain drain.

Add to that the growing tension between the ultra-orthodox and the Reform Jewish communities. According to the Pew Research Center, 62% of Reform Jews are atheist or agnostic. The conflict between the two divisions is growing ever wider.  

Israeli settlers are confiscating land that has been cultivated by Palestinians for thousands of years and are forcing them to become homeless nomads in their land of origin, while Ashkenazi usurpers from Eastern Europe enrich themselves from the sweat equity of the Palestinians.

All the while, respected Jewish historians like Shlomo Sand (“The Invention of the Jewish People”) and Arthur Koestler (“The Thirteenth Tribe”) dig into the Eastern European past of those who call themselves Jews but are instead, pagan converts to Judaism.

Their own historians, scientists, and anthropologists are denying their claim to the religion of Abraham and are documenting that they are not even Semites. 

Israel has never been more unstable. Plagued by a government in chaos, political leaders that are not trusted by those they claim to govern, racial, religious, and ethnic unrest, a pariah nation status, and fighting wars on several borders, a dwindling Jewish population, and an expansion of the Arab population speak to the inner turmoil Minister Farrakhan was addressing in 1984. 

The statements Minister Farrakhan made concerning Israel’s future are now ominously coming true. The predictions made by the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan in 1984 have come to fruition.

Add to that the fact that these European interlopers are sitting on a time bomb; they may want to study the words of Minister Farrakhan more carefully. With a $37 trillion budget deficit and an inability to pay its own bills, the U.S. may have to tell Israel it can no longer afford to send them their annual $20 billion welfare check, and it will have to pay for its own weapons of mass destruction.

It’s not as if they can’t afford it. Tel Aviv is the second-richest city in the Middle East, second only to Dubai. According to Forbes Magazine, Israel has one of the highest rates of millionaires and billionaires in the world. 

Minister Farrakhan was the first to expose Israel like no one else. Many around the world are seeing Israel as the racist settler state that it is. These issues factor into what Minister Farrakhan said to Israel as a warning in 1984 concerning Israel’s pending demise, further vindicating him and acknowledging his vision and prescience. 

Commentators and observers have predicted that Israel may have 10 years to survive as a nation. Do they see Jerusalem about to be surrounded, as the Bible states in Luke 21:20, which states: “When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near.”  

What do these people see that the central governing body of the Catholic Church and others may be blind to?  

However, it is the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad who may have the last word on this matter. In the September 12, 1969, issue of the Muhammad Speaks newspaper, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, “The Jews in Palestine will finally be the great losers even with the backing of her friends, because it is DIVINELY Appointed that the Jews must come out of Asia or be destroyed in war.”

Meanwhile, Minister Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam are emerging from their prison. Once described as the country’s leading anti-Semite, the walls that once confined Minister Farrakhan are now crumbling.

On December 1, 2001, Minister Farrakhan wrote to President George W. Bush the following: “I write you from my prison. A prison without bars that has been made for me because of the passion for truth and justice out of which I speak, and, the propaganda that makes me appear to many as anti-White, anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, and anti-Gay.

None of these names accurately describe who I am. I hope that you will open your heart to what I am writing not withstanding the prison from which I am writing.”

The truth that Minister Farrakhan has been speaking is continuing to resonate around the world. In Africa, our people are repeating his words. Throughout the Muslim world, our brothers and sisters are reiterating his bold positions.

A growing community of White Christians is awaking to his position. And yes, even Jews recognize the value of his sage wisdom. The walls that attempted to confine and restrict Minister Farrakhan are now falling down.
