Destruction from Iran

Rosh Yeshivat HaMekubalim, "Nahar Shalom", HaRav Binyahu Shmeuli Shlita, spoke about Iran's threat that it is to be the worst but in the merit of learning Torah, the decree can be annulled.

"...Know that decrees on Am Israel is awakening, like the Iranians, they are waiting to harm us".
Esav hates Yaakov (Avinu, zs'l) is Halacha. From the beginning, nations of the world could not stand the Jewish nation. They are always searching to erase us from the world, c'v, but HKB'H will not let it happen.

The Zohar HaKadosh says: "Know, in the future (Paras) Iran will come onto Israel from a 45 km distance distance from Yerushalayim. You know where that is? Dimona, Israel's nuclear plant location. The Zohar continues and says that there will be a great war for 12 months and it will be so severe, it will even cause Moshiach Ben Yosef to be murdered".

Know this, if one nation will war against us, all nations will join in.
B'H, there should not be trouble to Am Israel and not one will be harmed. One person of Am Israel that is harmed is the biggest tragedy. Do not allow any Jew to be harmed.

Iran's president thinks he's the Imam (Messia of the Muslims) and will actively war against the USA ("another crazy leader") and they will capture Iran and according to Targum Yonatan ben Uziel, zs'l, Israel will quietly sit on the side during the war and not participate.

In the first year והמטרתי על עיר אחת ועל עיר אחת לא אמטיר
And I have kept back the rain from you, when it was still three months before the grain-cutting: I sent rain on one town and kept it back from another: one part was rained on, and the part where there was no rain became a waste.

2nd year: חיצי רעב משתלחים arrows of hunger sent

3rd year: Hunger and many die including children and women and chassidim. Torah will be forgotten from the learned.

4th year: שובע, ואינו שובע partial plentiful

5th year: שובע גדול, ואוכלין ושותין ושמחין, ותורה חוזרת ללומדיה.
Plenty plentiful, eating and drinking with happiness and Torah is returned to its learners.

6th year: קולות Voices (threats)

7th year: מלחמות Wars

End of 7th year, Ben David arrives במוצאי שביעית בן דוד בא.
(Sandhedrin סנהדרין צ"ז)

5768 will begin the final stage of Gog uMagog between Non Jews and Bnei Israel and at the end of 5769, the final redemtion to Am Israel and survivors.

HaRav HaMekubal Daniel Zar Shlita also said a few times that Gog uMagog's last stage is connected to Israel and it is arriving as we see the "warm-up". A very solid sign that Gog uMagog is very close is from the Gemara and Zohar HaKadosh:
The destruction of Bet HaMikdash began in Persia (Iran). The destruction of the world will also begin from Iran. As long as Iran is not yet involved, Gog uMagog has not began.
We see Iran , Syria, Hizbullah, and Hamas threatening the very existence of Israel and the Jewish people and have made themselves and their intentions well known.
