The Israeli Defence Force versus the Arab/Islamic militants has become a global concern, as territorial occupations and the death toll mount up in the Middle East region. It is quite apparent that Israel has the upper hand. They are able to destroy enemy assets and pick off their leaders.

This state of affairs is extremely hard for Muslim people to take - they cannot accept it and full strength retaliation is inevitable. They prefer to die rather than be humiliated. The Islamic forces have a long history of conquest and the subjugation of infidels. They are desperate to regain their credibility and honour. That there is coming a determined attempt to destroy the Jewish State of Israel, “the ‘cancer’ in their midst” is quite evident and inevitable.

But we Christians have the Book, the Holy Bible, which informs us of what is really going to happen… the ‘spoiler’ – history before it happens, in the great story of human civilization.
A very interesting Bible Prophecy which mentions Elam/Iran is Isaiah 21:2b, where the Lord actually encourages them to attack. Also see Isaiah 22:6 Elam takes up the quiver…..that is, an arrow holder. Todays ‘arrows’ are missiles.

In Jeremiah 49:35-37, we are told that: Elam will take up the chief weapon of their might, but the Lord will break it and scatter them with His storm winds.

“The message clearly heard from Tehran these days is that it’s not going to patient any more because its patience has limits,” he said.

Elijah Magnier, a military analyst, agreed. He told Al Jazeera that Iran has two choices: either “wait until all of its allies are defeated and then its turn will come to be attacked by Israel”, or “join the battle now”.

“Iran will not tolerate any Israeli attack, even against military facilities or security facilities because Iran … considers they are now even … Israel hit twice, Iran hit twice,” he said.

The war of armegeddon when the Islamic countries attack and conquer the Israeli government and it's people does not take place till after the two witnesses have occupied Jerusalem for 1260 days.
The two witnesses have not appeared in Israel yet and when they do,the three and a half year drought begins .
The two witnesses will torment Muslims for those 42 months.Then the all out attack commences.

I agree.
What will happen next will not be Armageddon. If you read Revelation, you would see that Armageddon will happen at the 7th Bowl. Rev 16:17-18 and in Revelation 19:17-21. When Jesus Returns.
The event which will sort out the mess in the Middle East, is the Sixth Seal, Revelation 6:12-17, Psalms 83 and over 100 other Prophesies graphically describing the Day of the Lords fiery wrath.
The final 42 month period, when the 'beast' has world control and the two Witnesses will be in Jerusalem, is at lease 12 to15 years away yet.

The beast which came out of the sea does not have world control.
The world was amazed,and followed after the beast after his deadly wound was healed.

About 4 years ago I was reading the news about the beast as I often do.He said he wanted everyone in his kingdom(who immigrated to his kingdom from all nations of the world)to receive an implantable microchip.I understood at the time he was speaking of the mark of the beast,but I also knew the mark would not be implemented at that time because the second beast had not arrived in his kingdom yet.
My estimation is the beast only has about ,4 years remaining and the second beast will arrive to his aid next year.The second beast will practice the authority of the first beast on his behalf and that is when everyone in his kingdom (who followed after him from all nations)receive his mark.



Revelation 13:3
One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.



The people who followed after the beast are immigrants.His kingdom is a kingdom of immigrants from all nations ,tongues,and peoples.Im thinking they receive the mark he was talking about about the middle of next year.

Don't be coy. Name who you are talking about and better still; show how he has fulfilled Prophecy.
Or take your weird notions elsewhere.

The king of Babylon, of coarse.
He's kinda busy lately but I'm sure he will get around to it when he gets a chance.

And no.Its not a weird notion.He actually said he wants everyone in his kingdom to receive implantable microchips.He said he wanted all the children to get them first.

Like I said.His kingdom is a kingdom of immigrants.They followed after him from all nations peoples and tongues .

Revelation 13:3
One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast

Revelation 17:15
Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and languages.

Iran has told the United States via an intermediary that any Israeli attack against Iran would meet an “unconventional response” that includes targeting Israeli infrastructure.

In exclusive remarks to Al Jazeera, an Iranian official said on Thursday that his country has sent a message to the US, via Qatar, addressing rising regional tensions after Iran’s missile attack on Israel.

In the message, Tehran told Washington that “the phase of unilateral self-restraint has ended”, adding that “individual self-restraint does not secure our national security requirements”.

The indirect message also emphasised that Iran does not want a regional war, the official said.

The intelligence infiltration and assassination of Hezbollah leaders, notably Nasrallah, was a shocking blow to Iran. It placed the regime in an unprecedentedly vulnerable position, both internally and externally. For the first time, Iran was unable to fall back on its usual "strategic patience" due to the magnitude of the event, which severely damaged its national pride. In response, Iran launched a missile attack on Israel – a move seen as necessary to maintain the regime's image amid growing foreign and domestic contempt.

This missile strike temporarily breathed life back into the regime. Now, Iran is desperately trying to avoid an Israeli retaliation, which could involve strikes on its nuclear facilities or the assassination of key figures like Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei or Revolutionary Guards commanders. Any such retaliation would force Iran into a direct military conflict, something it seeks to avoid at all costs.

Israel has now exposed the Iranian regime's proxy strategy, pushing Tehran to either engage directly in military conflict or face undesirable outcomes. This situation presents the Iranian regime with two unfavorable scenarios.

The first scenario is to confront Israel directly, trying to minimize the consequences and avoid heavy losses. The outcome will depend on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's decision – whether to strike a decisive blow to the regime or merely weaken and disarm it.

The second scenario is to pursue diplomatic channels with the US, hoping to convince Israel not to retaliate for Iran's recent attack in exchange for Iranian promises to restrain its proxies, disarm them, and scale back its proxy warfare strategy. This could be part of a broader agreement that includes the Iranian nuclear program. However, this option is unlikely, as the Biden administration and Israel, given Israel's current strategic advantage, would probably reject such a deal.

There is strong momentum to seize the opportunity to neutralize the Iranian threat without conceding to Iran's nuclear ambitions, which remain a core issue in the conflict with both the US and Israel.

General Quaani, the Commander of the Iranian Quds Force; has done nothing to prevent Iran’s interests from crumbling,” one of the IRGC officials said. “Allies fell one after another, and he was watching from Tehran. Even worse days might yet be coming.”
The sources told the Telegraph that there were rumors that Kahmeini would replace Qaani because of internal pressure.

“The situation is bizarre and heated and angry discussions are taking place – the other concern is what to tell supporters in Iran,” the first source told the Telegraph.
The first official noted that Iran is at its weakest and that “The resistance project almost no longer exists.”
“You don’t need to be an expert to see that we are in our weakest and most vulnerable position in decade, and many acknowledge that here,” the official told the Telegraph.

The fall of Iran supported Syria, has dramatically changed the situation in the Middle East.

Iran has been humiliated and is now desperate. Their Islamic Mullah leadership, as under intense pressure from dissidents and it is clear to them as well as the rest of the world; their days are numbered.

What will they do? What can they do?
They can try to destroy Israel, their avowed aim and object.

But as Psalms 7:12-16 and many other Prophesies tell us, that will be their downfall.
Bring it on Lord! Show us Your power, as You did in ancient times!
