Regarding the current situation with the Israel / PLO peace process, Obama seems to be taking the side of the PLO and seeking to impose the views of the PLO upon Israel. In order to put greater political pressure upon Israel to agree to a PLO state with East Jerusalem as its capital, it seems that Obama is threatening Israel with imposing a peace agreement upon them which favors the PLO. Among the behaviors of Obama which causes one to believe that he is taking the side of the PLO includes the following:
1) WND reports that the USA is bargaining on behalf of the Palestinians
2) WND reports that the USA is spying on Israel in East Jerusalem and the West Bank
3) Obama is considering announcing a plan to impose peace upon Israel and the PLO
Meanwhile, Israel said that they will not be pushed into peace. Furthermore, in an event possibly made by Israel to signal their displeasure with how the USA is handling the peace process, PM Netanyahu announced that he would not be attending a US Nuclear Summit.
An agreement to divide Jerusalem and establish a PLO state is a tribulation event.

From these events, it should be clear that we are seeing the fulfillment of Zechariah 12 that Jerusalem will become a “stumbling block” to the nations. Zechariah 12 is a “day of the Lord” event. We are in the season which leads to the “day of the Lord”. The battle over Jerusalem is HERE NOW! Get ready for the tribulation!
Regarding Iran, the Obama is indicating that it is inevitable that Iran will produce nuclear weapons. In a blow to the USA, the government of Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia has been toppled by opposition forces in a blow to the USA war in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, the country of Greece is getting closer to bankruptcy which could create a great crisis within the European Union. A link to these articles is as follows:

From a Biblical prophetic perspective, the reason why the God of Israel would allow these events to happen is because it will result in the end of the exile of the house of Jacob and the reunification of the 12 tribes of Israel (Ephraim and Judah).
We will to be “watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem” and we will not rest until the God of Israel makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth (Isaiah 62).
Shalom in Yeshua the Messiah,
