Iran not ready to make a deal, will pay heavy price, Marco Rubio says
Hey Watchmen,
Rubio's line about Iran paying a "heavy price" is the same tired script Washington's been running for months now — tough talk, red lines, ultimatums — and my friends, Iran isn't moving. I've said all along that these people are not the pushovers Washington wants to believe they are. They've shown time and again they're willing to absorb the hit and keep standing. So when a Secretary of State starts talking about prices to be paid, understand what you're really hearing: a superpower that can't get its junior partner under control trying to save face by threatening someone who's already decided the price is worth paying. That's not strength, that's exposure.
Scripture warned us that nations rage and plot against Elohim and against His Anointed — and the kings of the earth think they can set themselves against Heaven's plan for this land and these people and just walk away clean. Psalm 2 tells us the Holy One sits in the heavens and laughs at that arrogance, not because He takes it lightly, but because He alone sets the terms nobody in Washington or Tehran gets to override. Every threat, every "deal," every sanction is just men rearranging chairs on a stage where the script was written long before any of them showed up.
So don't get caught up thinking Rubio's words or Iran's defiance are the real story, my friends — they're both just actors playing their part in something far bigger than the Middle East news cycle. Keep your eyes up, keep your lamps trimmed, and watch — because the One who laughs at the nations is the same One who's coming to set it all right.
