[QUOTE="Trusting in Him, post: 76542843, member: 439121"] I'm not so sure that this situation is going to turn out to Russia's advantage as much as Putin is counting on. Ukraine has had plenty of time to get themselves organised and they are planning to adopt a scorched earth policy, so there might not be anything left which is worth having for Russia. Russia may be forced to attack Israel, because they need the spoil from a war with Israel to help them get through a very dire financial crisis. Supposing Germany decides not to buy anymore Russian gas? That's a crazy amount of money which Russia won't be getting anymore and who says it won't happen? German industry is having a pretty hard time right now. The export markets for much of Germany's manufactured goods is mostly to other european economically troubled countries. Their export revenues are slowing down and German industry won't be needing quite as much Russian gas as things slow down. An expanding market for Russian gas might be turning into a shrinking market instead and it could just hit Russia where it hurts a lot. It's only speculation and may not happen like that, but Putin's little games have been hitting stock market figures all over the world and business confidence has take a big hit in many countries. Maybe not a massive hit so far, but maybe there's more to come, or maybe not, we just don't know at this stage. Perhaps lots of things which Russia is not expecting are going to soon start going wrong and there's not much which they can do to prevent it. Are we not on the cusp of prophecy in the middle east being fullfilled. Putin thinks he got it all worked out, well Putin is not God and maybe God is about to put some hooks into his jaws. Pride goes before a fall and perhaps it's going to be a case of how the mighty are fallen. I don't know about how everyone else is thinking, but I am wondering, if maybe the time has come when God's timing is begining to become unstoppable and all we can do is watch it all happen! There was a point in time when nobody could stop world war one from starting and also when nobody could stop world war two from starting and those who read their history books may be getting that feeling of deja vu right now! Who's going to stop, what's happening right now? I wonder! [/QUOTE]
