I was thinking of starting a thread on this subject, thanks. Good article.
I can understand why there is a hightened interest and even concern among Christians to the present situation in the Middle East because it involves nations that are participants in the Eze 38 invasion of Israel. This is the reason why Hal Lindsey recently said "we are very, very close" to the Lord's return.
The article said Obama administration is doing every thing it can to speed up the war process yet outwardly he desires diplomacy first and is applying pressure on Israel not to attack Iran. I think all along Obama has believed diplomacy will not work and knows the Mossad and CIA have been planning an attack for some time. Israel has sent warships and a submarine through the Suez Canal and conducted long range air-combat exercises to Gilbraltar and long air refueling exercises in the U.S. I don't know to what degree U.S. will be involved in this attack, bur for sure they will provide intelligence, GPS, long range refueling for airplanes and back up contingency plans in case Iran attacks U.S. installations and attempts to close off the strait of Hormuz. I believe America will not be directly involved in attacking Iran but will strongly support Israel in its efforts indirectly, thus giving the perception that it has not colluded with Israel.
Iran will retaliate against Israel with thousand of missiles fired from Gaza into the west bank and from Lebanon into Haifa and northern Israel. Highly unlikely nuclear bombs will be used. I don't think Iran will attack U.S. interests in countries outside of Israel for fear of U.S. retaliation. The war will be of short duration like previous Israeli wars and involve Israel, Hamas and Iran, it will not explode into a global war or will it be the Gog war prophesied in the Bible.
The attack on Iran will set the stage for the coming peace in the Middle East and Gog's invasion. This war will impress on those in the Middle East the need for peace between Israel and her enemies in order to prevent a third world war. Ususally there is war before a peace treaty is signed to end hostilities between waring factions.
Israel's attack on Iran will light the fuse for world war three. Russia and China have opposed trade restrictions against Iran and have declared an attack against Iran will cause world war III. U.S has invaded countries in Russia's back yard. U.S intends to install a global missile shield in the Middle East and the Balkans. Through Nato the U.S. is trying to gain influence over former nations of the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Turkmenistan. U.S. has installed puppet regimes in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan and attempted to do the same in Iran with Mirossein Mousavi. U.S. is clearly on a path of conquest and subversion to control the Middle East.
Russia and Iran fully understand U.S. objectives in the Middle East. Attacking Iran will be the final straw that breaks the camels back, it will cause Russia and Iran to retaliate against Israel, England and America. Assyria as Gog and the nations with him will attack Israel with missiles and with a great army and many ships provided by Russia. I really don't think Russian troops will be involved in the invasion, only troops from Muslim nations. As I understand prophecy Russia will attack America and England will missiles and America will be invaded by Iranian forces at the same time Gog invades Israel a few years from now.
