Jurgen Todenhofer is a Western journalist who a few months ago spent 10 days embedded with the armies of the Islamic State (ISIS). He is the first journalist to get this close to ISIS and was allowed extensive access to the group.
In an interview with a London-based Jewish newspaper this week, Todenhofer, a former member of Germany’s parliament, revealed remarkable insight about the brutal terrorist group.
“The only country ISIS fears is Israel,” he told a reporter. “They told me they know the Israeli army is too strong for them.”
The investigative reporter also said that the terror group was confident it could beat American and British ground troops, but feared the Israeli forces:
“They think they can defeat U.S. and U.K. ground troops, who they say they have no experience in city guerrilla or terrorist strategies. But they know the Israelis are very tough as far as fighting against guerrillas and terrorists. told me the Israeli army is the real danger.”
Even so, the leadership of ISIS has become increasingly belligerent and threatening toward Israel in recent weeks, even as it has found itself under renewed attack from both U.S. and Russian air power.
We know that Israel is standing on the front lines of the spiritually-rooted fight against Islamic extremism. That’s why, here at Jewish Voice Ministries, we’ve been encouraging all of our partners and friends to join us in praying for the people of Israel as the situation in the Middle East becomes increasingly volatile and dangerous.
We believe those prayers have, and will continue to, bear fruit. So, please continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and please keep your connection to Jewish Voice strong.
