Trust but verify
When it comes to our relationship with God there’s an old hymn that’s called Trust and Obey and that’s what we should do. As far as people and politics Ronald Reagan said Trust but Verify. This was true with the Russians back in the 1980’s and is still true today. Russia is saying they have not sent the s300 missile defense systems to Iran yet be the US government is saying they are sending them.
The reason this matters is that once Iran receives these systems it will be much harder for Israel to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. It seems to have been a game of cat and mouse with information about whether or not Israel will strike or be allowed to strike these installations by the US. One story comes out saying Israel is going to do it then we see another story about how the US won’t give Israel the green light. So does this mean we are now letting Israel know now is the time to strike? Maybe but not necessarily. All of these stories taken individually could be taken to mean one thing or another but together it is really hard to try to figure out if this information means anything or if it is dis-information or it just has nothing to do with the politics of the situation.
