23 Tammuz | Walls breached and fire (historically dates/events)
23 Tammuz 4859 - 1099:
The Crusaders under Godfrey de Bouillon captured Yerushalayim / Jerusalem from the Muslims. The Crusaders were a Church-sponsored movement to "liberate the Holy Land from the infidels." (En route, the Crusaders carried out a campaign of rape and pillage; an estimated 40% of European Jewry was slaughtered in the process.) The day following their conquest of Yerushalayim, the Crusaders murdered all the city's Jews, by herding them into a synagogue and setting it on fire. Jews were barred from Yerushalayim for the next century. Muslims were also victims of the Crusaders, which historians believe planted a deep-seeded hatred of the West.

The Temple and the Antichrist: Revelation 12 sums up so much by telling us that this time of great wrath is the work of "the serpent" (Rev 12:9,14-17).

It isn’t over until they say it’s over. Covid barely exists for most of us. Still the media and public health authorities won’t leave us alone.
