(Please recheck my figures and let me know if they do not add up. My figures are taken from various world population reports.)
There are approximately 13.8 million Jews in the entire world.
There are 1.6 BILLION Muslims in the world.
Just using these round numbers, there are 115 times more Muslims than Jews.
South Carolina vs. Western Hemisphere
There are approximately 13.8 million Jews in the entire world. There are 1.6 BILLION Muslims in the world. Just using these round numbers, there are 115 times more Muslims than Jews. To put this in perspective, there are almost 4.7 million South Carolinians. If you multiply that by 115, you get over 540 million people. The population in the USA is about 310 million. The population of Canada is about 35 million, the combined population of Central America (170 million). If South Carolina stood against the combined population of Canada, the USA and Central America, it would have better odds than Israel against the Muslim world. Just something to think about.
Yes, I do believe God is with Israel. That is not the point of this post. It is to put the populations in perspective.

I realize that not all Muslim countries are actively attacking Israel at the present time. I am simply pointing out the difference in Jewish and Muslim populations. However, Islam has historically wanted to annihilate Israel. Let me mention a few other facts.
1- LAND MASS DIFFERENCE.
Remember the difference in land mass between Israel and the Muslim world. Islam has over 1,000 times more land than Israel.
While much Muslim crying takes place concerning their precious "holy land," the fact is that it has only become precious to them in recent history, as a reaction to the Jewish presence. I have read that their "devotion" to Jerusalem is a recent and pretended devotion, and Jerusalem is not even mentioned by name in the Koran. They want Israel and Jerusalem primarily because the Jews are there. If the Jews were on the South Pole, the Muslim world would call it one of their "holy places."
2- THE WEALTH FACTOR.
Though there are untold millions of poor people under the oppressive hand of Muslim rule. The fact is that many of those States have great wealth at their disposal and will not hesitate to use it against Israel.
3- EVIL COHORTS.The Muslim world is crawling with political friends around the world, which also hate Israel. Those countries will throw their money, military machine and political weight against Israel.
4- HUSSEIN IN THE WHITE HOUSE
The fact that there is a man in the White House who is pro Arab, pro Islam and anti-American, anti-Christian, anti-Israel is a new hurdle for Israel to overcome.
THE BIBLE SAYS...
Psalms 2:1-5
(1) Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
(2) The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
(3) Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
(4) He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
(5) Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
The nations will encircle Israel to destroy it. They will ultimately fail, because God will sustain it. This passage refers to the world's hatred of Jesus, but remember, the Tribulation and war on Israel will escalate in the days just before His return. Satan, and his pawns believe that destruction of Israel is victory over the God of Israel.
God is a God of mercy today, but when He returns to set up His kingdom, He will be a God of judgment. Do not be caught on the wrong side. Choose Jesus today. God is not happy with a world in sin.
