Iran war: What is Pickaxe Mountain and why does Trump want to attack it?
Hey Watchmen,
"Pickaxe Mountain" — that's the Western nickname for the mountain hiding Iran's Fordow enrichment facility, buried deep enough that only the deepest bunker-busters can touch it. When Trump talks about wanting to hit it, my friends, understand what's really at stake: it's not just a facility, it's the crown jewel of Iran's whole nuclear ambition, tucked into a mountain like a man trying to hide his sin in a cave. But there's no mountain deep enough to hide anything from the eyes of the Almighty. "The eyes of Yahweh are in every place, beholding the evil and the good" — He sees Pickaxe Mountain a lot clearer than any satellite ever will.
I've walked you through this before — Turkey, Iran, this whole region is a powder keg, and every strike, every "will he, won't he" on a target like this, is another turn of the screw toward the kind of confrontation Daniel and Jeremiah saw coming from a long way off. A nation that hardens itself the way Iran has — burying its weapons program in stone, defying every warning — that's Nebuchadnezzar's pride all over again, the kind that gets a man eating grass in a field before Elohim is done with him. Trump may be the one weighing the strike, but the timing, the outcome, the "why now" of it all — that belongs to a throne higher than the Oval Office.
So don't get lost in the tactical chatter about bunkers and warheads, my friends. Watch the posture of the nations — watch pride puff up right before it falls. Stay in the Word, stay off the ledge of fear, and keep your eyes on the Moedim, because Elohim's clock doesn't run on Washington's calendar. Watch and be ready.
