The world is reeling with the horrifying spectacle of the recent stunning success of the Sunni Islam, ISIS, (Islamic Society of Syria and Iraq),which in the past two weeks has taken over most of Iraq, and is currently encircling Baghdad. The group has become the richest terror organization in the world after plundering banks in Mosul(Biblical Ninevah), and as a prize has taken Fallujah and Tikrit, places the United States,Britain and their coalition spent billions in treasure and thousands of our finest young lives to

Well I do think when you look at the Middle East nations, and for that matter in many of the conflicts worldwide, Muslim Islamists are more times then not instigators in one way or another....I believe this was also in the Armenia Genocide where Islamic Kurds seemed to have spearheaded the event...or at least highly influenced it.

As we've seen in Egypt, Syria, and now Iraq. The “wild man” always goes to where ever there is conflict, will change sides on a whim, and often fed heavy drugs to carry out the atrocities we read of.

I mention this because it is always difficult to determine if or not the actual opposing sides are doing the damage, rather that these “wild men” can often do so to incite further war. They are after all paid to fight...that is what they do as their vocation.

When looking at Ukraine it is not simply Ukraine's Army and the Citizens fighting....you also have the Oligarchs with their own personal armies fighting....also the hired militias which Ukraine is using, Russia is using, and the Nazi element is using. It's all a hodge podge of elements.

The Middle East conflicts are never clear, rather intensely varied.....but at the heart is always the lust for power and wealth regardless of the motive used to justify, and the tribes who continue to fight as they have throughout history. Religion is used ‘to motivate the masses’ when it's advantageous to do so.

I still tend to find the Kurds really just want to have their own country, and do not see themselves as Arabs or tied to any one religion. They will always fight from whatever standpoint would lead them to their goal of an independent nation. What is interesting, as the Iraq War heats up...is the refuges who head toward Kurdish areas.....those who are weary of war and want peace seem to understand the Kurdish people will accept them. They recognize the Kurds as basically peaceful seeking for all. Unlike the Islamists who see peace ONLY through Islam ad until all nations are under Islamic rule there can be no peace.

Just a side note here....interesting how many religious movements and cults have a “female” deity or idol within their faith....and is often times central to who they pay homage to. From New Agers to some of the larger false religions there is a female entity...Hinduism and many eastern religions have a female entities.....Interesting as much it is only ISlam who pays little if any homage to any woman.

I tend to think that the “she” side of these religions and cults will be central to a common ground of uniting faiths to some degree. I say so because the great deception will be powerful on the minds and hearts of people for having refused Christ....the masses will be easily led as history shows.

In the broad sense, Turkey is the key - The Magog War cannot occur without her... She is historically the head of the Caliphate. She is the 'land of Magog', Meshech and Tubal are from her, as is Togarmah. What we see happening is the formation of the Caliphate which will eventually go against Israel, along with Russia and Germany (perhaps broadened to the EU)... When Turkey finally aligns with Islaam (and she is pretty wobbly now), all the pieces will be in place for the rise of a Caliph.

The infighting we see now, while pertinent, is incidental - Except in that Iraq must needfully be part of that broad coalition, hence must fall to the jackals.

Note however, that Ps83 could come sooner, and could very well be the catalyst that causes that Caliphate to aggregate.

Actually the homage to 'woman' comes in the form of the crescent, moon, and star. If one looks at images of Isis or Ishtar, upon her head one observes the crescent and moon/star...or even an empty thrown.

Do a minimal search on the internet and one will come across dozens of sites that illustrate the linkage between Isis, Ishtar, and the Islamic Crescent and star. I am providing a link to another forum to give you a better idea of how Islam and a 'female goddess' are indeed linked.

Is ISLAM based on PAGAN roots?

I would submit that the recognized symbol for Islam is quite feminine and in ancient times was well recognized as belonging to the goddess Isis/Ishtar.

[MississippiMan]

Agreed, Eagle. Mid-trib is when we’re definitely gonna see the mandatory worship of the Beast.

[caww]

That’s right..I forgot about that.....been awhile since I learned of that prior. However do the Muslims see this symbolism as a “female” deity?

[EBH]

Oddly, the answer to that if you ask a Muslim outright, is “no.” It is forbidden by Sharia Law. But, but they know the symbolism belongs to the goddess Ishtar...the Great Harlot of Babylon! And some of the mythology around the black stone in Mecca, which predates Islam, points to this being the one of the many venerations of the moon goddesses. You might find this link interesting reading http://www.truthbeknown.com/islam.htm

It is widely accepted in even modern paganism that Ishtar is the Great Harlot. Her priestesses were known as harlots as well. Modern paganism has two sides to it if you will. There is the ‘lighter’ side, Wicca etc. and once you get past that ‘lighter’ side and scratch beneath the surface you will find the ancient gods.

The link was interesting as posters communicated their thoughts on the matter. What was most interesting, and not surprising, were the Muslims who simply cannot or refuse to accept the obvious....facts cannot penetrate the mind of an astute Muslim....the indoctrination prevents that consideration.

I recall a study I did on pagan idols......I believe rooted in Tammaz or something similar to that name.....and the origins of many of the pagan idols and beliefs. All which seem to have originated from marriage or intermarriage between their Gods and the offsprings from.

I do believe that most Muslims have no interest in learning of their history outside of Ilsamic literature....it’s very much frowned upon and even punished should they do so. Additionally they communicate with those outside Islam in order to convert them to Islam....and what all their community services are motivated from...recruitment and conversions. Most often to those who are having difficulty in marriage or abuse...the more feeble minded Americans...who have long ago abandoned Christianity...so they are prime targets and easily fooled by Islamic. teaching.
