I remember seeing a show about Nostradamus in the late 1970's. His predictions about Iran are now starting to be eerily accurate.
Based on biblical prophecy and world events, I see a WWIII scenerio developing between 2012-2015. The axis would be China, Russia, North Korea, Iran & Pakistan for the major foes. The sequence of events would start with North Korea attacking South Korea, then a few months later China attacking Taiwan. Taiwan would be bait for the USA to have it's carrier fleet vaporized when we try to intervene. Russia and China would launch a first strike nuke attack on the USA after our naval fleet is crippled. It is at this time that Iran and Russia will attack Israel, when we are least able to support them. Israel will use her Sampson option and repell the invading hoardes.
Russia will conquer all of Europe and China the rest of Asia. Russia will control our country temporarily with it's air force and remaining nuclear force. China will turn on Russia during the latter part of the war which will ultimately allow us to regroup after a few years and defeat this foe.
How can Russia conquer anything these days?
