Date: October 8, 2025 Documentary: The Dragon's Prophecy by Dinesh D'Souza Subject: October 7th Hamas Attack, Biblical Prophecy, and the Spiritual Battle for Israel

Key Themes and Powerful Quotes​

October 7th Attack - Survivor Testimony​

Rafella Taman (Nova Festival Survivor):

"When they got there, the first thing that they did was to murder a police officer that we heard screaming from the outside of the shelter. Everyone that tried to get outside was shot. Now, they threw inside gas grenades, strap over grenades, and grenades. And they started taking people out and burning bodies outside... Out of the 40 people, only 10 survived."

"When they would actually get inside to shoot people, they were laughing, but laughing like someone told the best joke that you ever heard. Is that to you almost like a definition of true evil? Yeah, I couldn't see a soul. It's only darkness."

Lishai Miran (Kibbutz Nir Oz Survivor):

"They took my husband to Gaza. The Jewish always saying never again, but unfortunately, never again happened in October 7. They came here to our kibbutz, to our home, they burn, they kill, they kidnapped people and children."

Biblical and Historical Parallels​

Jonathan Cahn on the Philistines and Palestinians:

"The word 'Palestinian' literally means the Philistines. In fact, the way you say Palestinian in Arabic is Philestine, or the Philistine people. It's literally a people named after the ancient enemies of Israel. The ancient Philistines were headquartered in a region that was called Philistia, in the Bible. Today, it's called the Gaza Strip."

"The prophets, when it speaks about the Philistines, it says, 'You have this ancient hatred, this vengeance for Israel.' That whole hatred has been revived."

On Hamas's Name:

"Hamas is a strange word. It's an Arabic word. At the same moment, it's an ancient Hebrew word. In ancient Hebrew, Hamas means evil, violence, and destruction, and it actually appears in the Bible. You'll have a scripture that says, 'Lord, save me from the men of Hamas. Hamas dwells in the dark places of the earth, rid Hamas from the land.'"

The Dragon and Spiritual Warfare​

On the Dragon's Identity:

"The dragon is conducting through anti-Semitism, his war against God himself... If the Jewish people, if their existence on Earth bears witness that God is real, their history bears witness also that the devil is real."

On Operation Al-Aqsa Flood:

"A month? They don't call that October 7th. They call it Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. Al-Aqsa Flood means the flood. What we witnessed that day, that was the dragon's flood."

"The serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, to sweep her away with a flood." (Revelation 12:15)

The Nazi Connection​

Jonathan Cahn on Hitler's Legacy:

"There was a guy named the Mufti of Jerusalem... He meets with Adolf Hitler. He wants Hitler to bring the Holocaust to the Middle East... After the war, he escapes, goes to Egypt. He's hailed as a hero, he becomes the one who's known as the father of Palestinian nationalism."

"He finds an Egyptian teenager, takes him under his wing, mentors him, trains him, disciples him. The Egyptian teenager's name is Yasser Arafat."

"This is Adolf Hitler's book, translated to Arabic, Mein Kampf. This book was found just a few days ago in Northern Gaza, in a children's living room."

Archaeological Confirmation​

Zev Ornstein (City of David Foundation):

"The discoveries being made here in the city of David are showing that Jerusalem's biblical heritage is not simply a matter of faith, but a matter of fact. It's real."

"This coin, it goes back 66 to 70CE during the period known as the Great Jewish Revolt... These coins, which say in ancient Hebrew writing 'for the freedom of Zion,' represent a hope, a wish, a dream, and a prayer, that one day, their descendants would return to Jerusalem as sovereign. It took 2,000 years, but there is a free Jerusalem today."

Eric Metaxas on Biblical Archaeology:

"The archaeological evidence for the Bible as a historical document has become genuinely overwhelming. There's example, after example, after example, it only moves in one direction. It never happens that somebody discovers something from archaeology, we see that the Bible is wrong, just the opposite."

Israeli Leadership Perspective​

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:

"I realized it wasn't only a war against Hamas. It's a war against the Iran axis, and we will have to take it on. And I said, and promise that we would change the Middle East, ridding it of the Iran axis."

"This has been our land for 3,500 years since Abraham came here... We came back to a land that was largely barren and empty, and we brought it back to life, and we're going to keep it."

"The only place where Christians are safe in the Middle East is in Israel. Not tolerated, welcomed. They participate in our society."

The Nature of Evil​

On Evil's Deception:

"Evil never shows itself explicitly as evil. It never declares its intentions. It always masquerades as good... The devil is the inverter of God. Everything is a reverse."

Musab Hassan Yousef (Son of Hamas Co-founder):

"Israel does everything within their ability to minimize the civilian casualty in Gaza. Hamas... did everything in their ability to maximize the civilian casualty for critical and financial gain, for global sympathy, and they succeeded of fooling so many people."

End Times Prophecy​

Ezekiel's Prophecy:

"Ezekiel foretold a war that he says it'll happen when Israel has gathered back from the nations. He talks about an alliance of nations that will invade the land... Sudan... Libya... Turkey... and Persia, which is Iran, which is the key of all this."

On Red Heifers and Temple Prophecy:

"The red heifers. They haven't existed, but all of a sudden, they found about five of them... Hamas issued a statement. They said it was because you, Israel, desecrated our holy place. And in one of those things, it said, 'Because of the red heifers.'"

The Call to Action​

Jonathan Cahn's Final Message:

"Just as the Israelis had to become warriors like the Israelites of old, in the same vein, Christians today need to put on a spiritual armor like the Christians of old, in the Book of Acts and have that kind of a warrior spirit."

"We have to become fighters in the spirit, for God. We don't accept what the enemy wants to do with our culture. We don't accept what he wants to do with the nation. We don't accept what he wants to do in our family, with our children, in our marriage, in our calling. We say no, we take up the armor, because the very first believers, they were warriors in the spirit."

"Messiah is the ultimate dragon slayer... We are fighters against darkness, and if we keep fighting, we win."

American Implications​

Mike Huckabee (U.S. Ambassador to Israel):

"We share a common foundation, and that foundation is a Judeo-Christian understanding and a worldview, without which there is no Western civilization... I cannot be a Christian without completely embracing everything there is in the Jewish Foundation, because without that Jewish foundation, there is no Christianity."

On Anti-Semitism:

"The whole issue of anti-Semitism is not geopolitical, it is not ethnicity, it's not socioeconomic. It really is a spiritual disease. It is up versus down, good versus evil, right versus wrong."

The Moral Complexity​

Golda Meir's Famous Quote:

"We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children, but we can never forgive them for forcing us to kill their children."

Historical Context​

On Jewish Indigeneity:

"Israel checks all the boxes of legitimacy for a nation's state. God clearly in the Bible promised the land to Abraham and his ancestors forever... In 1947-48, the UN is coming up with this partition plan... Arabs rejected it, invaded Israel simultaneously, Israel against all odds prevailed."

Final Reflection​

Dinesh D'Souza:

"For me, it's a reminder that there's a world behind the world and concealed within political conflicts is an eternal battle between good and evil. The dragon is not always apparent to us, but he is real and working to achieve our destruction. Yet God's word stands. The dragon will not prevail. In the end, he will be cast down and God will triumph."

Documentary Structure and Impact​

The documentary weaves together:

  • Raw footage and testimony from October 7th survivors
  • Biblical archaeological discoveries confirming Scripture
  • Analysis of spiritual warfare through the lens of Revelation
  • Political and theological commentary from experts
  • A call for Christians to understand their role in this cosmic battle

The film positions the October 7th attacks not as an isolated terrorist incident, but as part of an ancient, ongoing spiritual war described in biblical prophecy—particularly the Book of Revelation's depiction of the dragon's war against the woman (Israel) and her children (both Jews and Christians).

The documentary concludes with D'Souza and his wife being baptized in the Jordan River, symbolizing personal commitment to this spiritual battle and the ultimate triumph of God over evil.
