Ezekiel 38& 39 I believe comes first then this one in Joel seems to be during the Tribulation.

. The one you listed is after Armageddon probably in the Millennium Kingdom .

I don't think parts of Ezekiel 38 & 39 is very far off but that's just my studied opinion.I just can"t see the situation over there keep dragging on like it is. Others disagree.

Joe 3:10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.

Joe 3:11 Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD.

Joe 3:12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.

You are basing your prophecy timneline of events on the new testament. I am basing mine on the real testament.

As the saying goes, Never the Twain shall meet.

Didn't the Gulf War show us how Russian stuff holds up against our stuff?

I don't really understand what you are saying I was just trying to answer your query.

These are not my prophecies I am not a prophet. These are just my understanding of them which could be wrong.

I also don't understand what you mean by me basing my time line one the New Testament.

Ezekiel and Joel are both Old Testament books and the comments I made about Ezekiel is based on the time order in the book of Ezekiel itself.

I find my self about equally in both the Old And New Testament and find that each is necessary to the understanding of the other.

They are both by the same original author and they are both about the same person.

If one is not real then you can throw both in the trash.

It does seem like the Russians take a huge number of casualties against what would seem like lesser opponents. They have never done very well when it comes to war. They will take 5 kills to get 1 kill over an untrained lesser armed terrorist.

Putin is such a little punk ass, he just has to keep arming all of our enemies. The Saudis are our enemies but we ignore it since we need their oil. He keeps trying to make Russia a major player again, positioning himself as a balancing power to the United States. This is sort of what the French fantasize about, but unfortunately he has the resources, balls and cunning to pull it off.

Saudi Arabia along with Egypt & Turkey have among the best equipped militaries in the region(taking Israel out of the equation).

Not necessarily so!!The Saudis are more or less following a trend which is seen around the world.The UAE,Kuwait,Greece,South Korea have all brought various Russian systems in the past decades while still remaining major American customers.The UAE had no problem in buying the BMP-3 IFV & Pantysr SAM systems ,while still going for over 80 F-16s & Apaches from Uncle Sam.It pays to not put all your eggs in one big basket.Besides,I have yet to see about the US saying anything solid on stopping armssales to the region.You can do a check on FR's searchpage on the US offering PAC-3 missiles,M1 & E-3 upgrade packages to the Saudis.

Moreover Russia has usually avoided sales to the Persian Gulf states till recently due to their support for Chechen & (ex)Yugoslavian separatists.But with India looking at French & Israeli weapon systems & the EU due to lift it's armsban on China,the Russian share of these markets will only come down.

Pinging... Russian gang now in another state of paradox and confusion after having flamed us so many times for the USA not attacking the Saudis. Russia is selling arms to Saudi Arabia.

They have very good equipment, but they are rather poor trained, especially pilots.

Russians are arming other oil states. See: Venezuela 100,000 AK-47's.

Russia wants a stranglehold on the oil market. Making big trouble for the USA.

Hope the NSC is noticing this.
