A Deadly war with Iran -- Feb. 13, 2006

If the targets included the nuclear reactor at Bushehr, which will become fully fuelled this year, a radioactive cloud could spread over the Gulf. Iran's small navy, which includes three submarines, would have to be attacked to negate threats to vital shipping lanes in the Straits of Hormuz.
But Iran could still retaliate with
suicide speedboats, possibly leading to crippling rises in the price of oil.

Iran breaks seals on nuclear reactors
-- Jan. 14, 2006
( Ed : Our God is so sovereign that He makes even the secular press to declare His word. Praise God ! )
Iran has "broken the seals". The phrase refers to the seals placed by UN nuclear inspectors on equipment that, unsealed, enables uranium enrichment, making possible the development of a nuclear bomb.
It has a suitably apocalyptic ring. In the Book of Revelation, the Lamb breaks the seven seals and earth-shattering violence ensues: "…the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together… And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men… hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains".

That's what Ahmadinejad means, too. Last September, he addressed the United Nations in a speech that called on God to hurry up and send along his "Promised One". This was a reference to the strong Shi'ite belief in a Mahdi, or Hidden Messenger, who will reappear in the world to rule it aright

Russia ready to defend Iran -- Sept. 15, 2005
Tehran hopes that its enemy will back off under the pressure, while it wants to have reliable allies like Russia and China, which can defend Iran from the Americans and Europeans. This week should show if the Iranian authorities have calculated everything correctly
According to Cohen’s opinion, “Russia does not want to spoil its relationship with Iran, because it sees Tehran as a member of a multi-polar coalition, which also includes China, and plays a role of the counter-balance for the U.S.”

U.S. simulates war with Iran -- Dec. 18, 2004
The magazine said a war against Iran would be dangerous. The simulation was said to have included Iranian counterattacks, including use of its missile arsenal as well as insurgency attacks in the Gulf and Iraq. The exercise also took into account al-Qaida strikes inside the United States.

How Iran will fight back -- Dec. 16, 2004
Henceforth, any US attack on Iran will likely be met first and foremost by missile counter-attacks engulfing the southern Persian Gulf states playing host to US forces, ( oil crisis ? ) as well as any other country, eg, Azerbaijan, Iraq or Turkey, allowing their territory or airspace to be used against Iran. The rationale for this strategy is precisely to pre-warn Iran's neighbors of the dire consequences, with potential debilitating impacts on their economies for a long time, should they become accomplices of foreign invaders of Iran.

A war with Iran would definitely require establishing the draft in the US,

US forces pull out of Germany
[ Gomer ] -- Jan. 11, 2004
The Pentagon has confirmed the United States will pull armored units from Germany as it realigns its military. Separately, the German Defense Ministry is reportedly planning massive budget cuts for its own armed forces.
A Pentagon spokesman on Friday confirmed the United States was planning withdraw its tanks and other heavy armor from Germany in the coming years, as part of Washington’s efforts to restructure the global deployment of its forces.


Presently there are some 70,000 U.S. troops stationed in Germany. U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has made no secret he would like to reshape the American military from its Cold War era deployments like those in Germany to smaller, more flexible units based closer to potential flashpoints in the Middle East and elsewhere.

Participating Nations in Magog War (
different version )
Gomer = Warsaw Pact Nations of Eastern Europe
Togarmah = Armenia and Black Sea Alliance
. The alliance points to Russia (Eze. 38:4-6). Gog does not come against Israel alone, and these which are said to be associated with him remind us of Russia and its former communist satellites.

Gomer refers to "the people descended from Gomer (Ge. 10:2); they settled in the north of the Black Sea and then spread themselves southward and westward to the extremities of Europe" (Young). Thus Gomer probably refers to the former East European satellites of Russia, such as Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Poland.

Togarmah was a son of Gomer, son of Japheth (Ge. 10:3) and settled in Armenia (Young). "Armenia, a former kingdom of NE Asia Minor; generally understood to include eastern Turkey and the Armenian S.S.R.--a constituent republic of the Trans Caucasian Soviet Union" (Funk & Wagnalls). This refers to the southern republics of Russia.

Turkey has notified Israel that they are rethinking their diplomatic relationship with Israel.

Venezuela -- Mexico -- Nicaragua -- Bolivia ties -- August 10, 2006
Hugo Chavez protege Lopez Obrador is inciting mob rule in Mexico in order to topple the government. Daniel Ortega is returning to power in Nicaragua in order to again destabilize Central America. In Bolivia, Evo Morales is trying to destabilize the Andean states. Morales, Ortega and Obrador will no doubt be aided by military supplies from Chavez, including large shipments of Russian-origin Kalashnikov rifles now made under license in Venezuela
Arc of Crisis
To put it another way, Chavez wants to create an Arc of Crisis that would extend from Bolivia to Nicaragua to Mexico and then Cuba, the Caribbean, and Colombia. Chavez wants to set the entire region ablaze. He also wants to isolate and weaken Brazil, Chavez's major rival.
It is for this reason that Chavez is purchasing 25 advanced Russian fighter aircraft, Sukhoi Su-30s. These aircraft would provide
Chavez with air superiority in the Caribbean, to the benefit of the FARC and other terrorist groups.

Cuba does indeed have biological warfare-- May 21-2002
The foremost expert on the controversial subject, 1992 defector to the U.S. and author of "Biohazard," Dr. Ken Alibek, said he suspects the Bush administration is correct when it says Cuba is developing deadly germ agents.
"in 1990," Alibek says, "Biopreparat [the Soviet's key biowarfare entity] was negotiating the sale of dual-use equipment to Cuba."
"
There are a few small differences in producing vaccines and weapons," Alibek warns.
"But the knowledge is essentially the same."
According to Alibek, Cuba has the sophisticated fermentation vats needed to manufacture both vaccines and pathogens. But as to whether the Cuban biotechnology effort is more or less a front for more sinister R & D exports, the expert wavers.
Polo Cientifico, the original research base, has blossomed into a science cluster on the outskirts of Havana that boasts a small city of sleek and modern laboratories.

China had moved at least three shipments of arms to Cuba.

China delivering Arms to Cuba
"Whether it's in Cuba or whether it's in the Panama Canal or whether it's in the South China Sea, communist China is trying to have an iron grip on areas that are strategically important to the security of the United States and the western democracies," Rohrabacher said in an interview with CNSNews.com.

Fidel Castro's brother: Raul Castro....hardliner

11 Navy Ships and 10,000 US Sailors in Puerto Rico...June 13-2001
http://www.nandotimes.com/world/story/26007p-470048c.html

[It is interesting that in 98 Pakistan and Turkey both became official Moslem nations, and that Germany has recognized Islam as an official religion. Now Christians are being beheaded in Pakistan and crucifixions of Christians by Islamists take place in Egypt and Sudan. We must pray urgently for an end to the persecution of Christians by militant Islamists.]

Daniel 7:5 tells us that the Russian Bear has "three ribs in the mouth of it." This could mean Georgia, Armenia and Syria when the Russian army makes its' mad dash south.
Please see
www.stratfor.com/SERVICES/GIU/102999.ASP
OR..more likely, the 3 ribs could be Lebanon, Syria and Iraq since missiles
are sent to Iraq from Russia through that land route. See:

Syria will pay a high price for her complicity, for we read in
Jeremiah 49: 23-27 of the destruction of that ancient city, Damascus. (Also see Isaiah Chapter 17 )

WHERE

This Invasion will take place in Northern Israel, along the Golan Border and "the mountains of Israel". Mt. Hermon
Ezekiel 39:18 "Bashan" = the Golan


SCENE TWO

In order for Russia to carry out her successful campaign against Israel, she must first put Israel’s ally and protector out of commission. This could well mean a First Strike (pre-emptive) aimed at the United States
(Ezek. 38: 10-12...15,16). While we are distracted from this unprecedented event, the Soviet-Islamic Confederation will forge forward against Israel---no bars held.
