Israel and France

Traditionally, France has been more inclined to support Israel’s neighbors – whether through silence or actively endorsing/encouraging these other nations.  But things have changed radically since Sarkozy has taken the presidency.  An outspoken supporter of Israel, he is the first president to address the CRIF (Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France).

Take a look at his speech here.

Is this the beginning of revival?  We know that God can only bless those nations that support Israel – there is no other option.  (For those readers who may not be totally convinced of this please visit We Bless Israel – it’s a wonderful explanation of Scriptural basis for blessing this nation and God’s covenant with this nation).
