Mr. Jeff Williams, you are (deliberately?) missing my point.
I am not saying that the prophecies aren't coming true. I'm
saying that the fact that they are coming true is no evidence
for prophetic accuracy on the part of Ezekiel, et. al. The
people who created Israel, and the people who are maintaining
it, are deliberately causing the words they have read in the
Bible to come true. How much more clearly can I put this?

Example: I have a vision that a penny will fall to the floor
in this room in the next five minutes. This is the Word of God,
so I do everything in my power to fulfill it by dropping a penny.
There, I just did it. It came true. Is this any evidence of
my prophetic powers?
