DVD to release on June 5th – includes exclusive interviews with Benjamin Netanyahu and Natan Sharansky on Iran’s nuclear ambitions and threat to “wipe Israel off the map” CAROL STREAM, Ill. (May 7, 2007) — In the summer of 1967, Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser and his allies threatened to “throw the Jews into the sea.” The Soviet Union had already invested $2 billion into arming and training Israel’s enemies. Another Holocaust appeared imminent. But on June 5, 1967, Israel struck first. In six days, they defeated Egypt, Jordan, and Syria; captured the West Bank and Gaza; and reunified Jerusalem under Jewish control for the first time in 2,000 years. Some called it a triumph of Zionism. Others called it the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. But Mideast leaders called it Al Nakbah, “the disaster” and they vowed revenge. Exactly forty years later, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his allies are vowing to “wipe Israel off the map.” They are feverishly trying to build, buy or steal nuclear weapons. And once again, Moscow is playing a central, menacing role. With all eyes currently on Israel, “New York Times” best-selling author Joel C. Rosenberg, Solomon Productions and Tyndale House Publishers have turned Rosenberg’s best-selling non-fiction book, Epicenter: Why The Current Rumblings In The Middle East Will Change Your Future, into a powerful new documentary film which will be released on DVD on June 5, 2007.

The one-hour documentary is hosted by bestselling author Joel Rosenberg and Pastor Skip Heitzig, of Calvary Chapel Albuquerque. “Epicenter” examines the apocalyptic, End Times beliefs of Iran’s current President, Iran’s efforts to obtain nuclear weapons, and how Ahmadinejad’s belief in the coming of the Islamic Messiah known as the Mahdi or the Twelfth Imam is driving Iranian foreign policy. “Epicenter” also looks at the End Times beliefs of evangelical Christians and Orthodox Jews and includes the results of an exclusive nationwide survey of American attitudes towards Israel and toward Bible prophecy.
