When my novel, Invasion: Israel, was released in late 2004, I had no idea how timely it would become. At that time, Israel had withdrawn from southern Lebanon and Prime Minister Sharon was talking of vacating settlements in Gaza and the West Bank in an effort to secure peace. Hezbollah and Hamas were thorns in Israel's side but they were content to send suicide bombers to blow up innocent Israeli men, women and children. The thought of rockets raining down on Haifa was unthinkable, and the possibility of rockets loaded with weapons of mass destruction targeting Tel Aviv was a thought too horrible to even consider. The war with Hezbollah last summer proved that horrible day was here. All of that is now a distinct possibility and the reality of the Muslim desire to wipe out the Jews from their Holy land is there for all to see. They do not want peace. They have never wanted peace. Just read Invasion: Israel and see how I wrote of a rocket that hits Tel Aviv filled with smallpox and kills thousands. Is life imitating art?

In my novel, Professor Jacobson is teaching a beginning comparative religions class at a local university. He informs the class that while he is Jewish and teaches Jewish Studies, he will try and be objective for this beginning, required lecture class. He is interrupted by a Libyan student, Mustafa, who tells him how his relatives lost their land to the Zionist invaders and how they would liberate those lands once again. When Professor Jacobson tells Mustafa that God gave that land to the Jewish people, Mustafa responds with the diatribe- "what is your God a Century 21 Agent?"

News arrives to the classroom that a huge earthquake has just leveled the El Aqsa Mosque and Dome on the Rock in Jerusalem. Mustafa believes that it was the Israelis and starts yelling "death to the infidels, death to the Zionists.jihad.jihad." The entire class is disrupted and the chaos begins. Soon afterwards, people suddenly disappear from all over the world. Prof. Jacobson looks on in wide eyed amazement as his Christian students are suddenly gone. Their clothes, jewelry, and any artificial devices on their person are left behind, but they are gone. The skies are filled with UFOs. In this sequel to my first novel, The Great Harpazo Deception, Azazel, the extraterrestrial, fallen, demonic angel continues his deception of those left behind. People are deceived to believe that their suddenly missing family, friends, enemies, government representatives and others have been abducted by the scores of hovering UFOs, rather than have been caught up into the clouds with Jesus.

A long range rocket slams into Tel Aviv carrying smallpox and tens of thousands die. The Israeli Prime Minister cannot be found and is feared to have been abducted. The Israeli Defense Minister gives the order to nuke Baghdad where the rocket was thought to have originated. Hezbollah, with Syrian backing, begins lobbing rockets from southern Lebanon into a wounded Israel, and Damascus is leveled by an Israeli nuclear bomb. America is also attacked as Los Angeles is devastated by a terrorist setting off a WMD carrying smallpox.

The President, Vice President and Secretary of State have all disappeared as have members of Congress, the military and thousands of government workers. The government comes to a standstill and cannot respond to the ongoing crises. Terrorists destroy the Washington Monument, the Statue of Liberty, the Hoover Dam, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Planted evidence left behind implicates the Israelis. Gasoline prices skyrocket and the Jews are blamed. The stock market crashes and there is a run on the banks and the Jews are blamed. Jews are crucified all over the world by gangs of Muslim thugs.

A yellow haired, pointed head scientist out of Switzerland, Dr. Sam Armilus, comes up with a cure for HIV/AIDS and he becomes a world hero in the midst of all the chaos. His charismatic appeal is so powerful that he becomes a world figure overnight. He gets on worldwide TV and says to America: "Beware of the Jewish menace. With all the Christians gone, the remaining people of the book are trying to destroy what is left of your country.We cannot let your nation be polluted by these vermin.They crucified the man of peace from Nazareth. We need to crucify them.our brothers in Al-Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the PLA have kept the armed struggle against these vermin alive.

The Jewish killing fields begin anew all across America and over the entire world. Professor Jacobson, his wife, and his remaining students experience all of this horror and eventually find themselves in Israel as the end approaches. Azazel, the extraterrestrial, cuts off the heads of anyone left behind who calls upon the name of Jesus. It works hand and hand with Dr.Armilus to kill the Jews and destroy Israel.

When the great earthquake leveled the Temple Mount area, the Israelis found hundreds of talents of gold and silver and a mass of precious stones buried underneath. This Solomon's treasure is worth billions and the fanatical Muslims want it as reparation for the destruction of Baghdad and Damascus. The Islamic Republics of the former USSR, along with Iran, Turkey, Libya and Sudan band together to create a tank armada that would invade Israel, destroy it once and for all, and take the spoil for themselves. Egypt and Jordan decline to participate and Syria is no more. A Russian General, a six foot ten, three hundred pound modern day Goliath with red flowing hair and huge white teeth, would lead them into battle. His mother had been an Afghani Muslim whom his father had met while the Russians occupied her country.
