Looks like a middle-class suburbanite going on a trip with a pretty wife...
King Abdullah II will participate personally on Thursday in conducting air strikes...Ah, but won't he be violating the sacrosanct airspace of Iraq and/or Syria? /s
Daniel 7, 8 “While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being and a mouth that spoke boastfully.
Little horn / short guy

Muammur Kaddafi was the third king uprooted, the other two, Hosni Mubarak and Saddam Hussein. And uprooted is the perfect word as these three had nearly 100 years of combined rule in the M.E. No small feat indeed. Psalm 83 is THE WAR, not a sideshow. Psalm 83 contains the 'list' of the ten nations from Daniel and Revelation.
Now, who arose in the M.E. before Saddam Hussein was uprooted?
Daniel 8:23 “In the latter part of their reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a fierce-looking king, a master of intrigue, will arise. 24 He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy those who are mighty, the holy people.
24 His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; He shall destroy fearfully, And shall prosper and thrive; He shall destroy the mighty, and also the holy people.
25 “Through his cunning He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule; And he shall exalt himself in his heart. He shall destroy many in their prosperity. He shall even rise against the Prince of princes; But he shall be broken without human means.
The fierce looking king stands up!

Buckle up, it's showtime!
Actually, I see him as one of the gay guys at the end of Blazing Saddles yelling “ You brute, you brute, you brute!”
George II was the last British monarch to lead his troops into battle.

If USG wants to get serious about fighting ISIS, ditch 70% of our CT efforts in CENTCOM & just give the money to Jordan to do their worst.

Psalm 83 is right around the corner—it’s game over for all of us once it happens.
Glad to see you’re not in the dark about it. Most of the world is totally oblivious to what’s coming down the pipe.

Those Michael Jackson uniforms work! Jamal - A national treasure.
You would vote for a Muslim as POTUS?
The British and WW1. The gift that keeps giving. Forming an alliance with the Saud family has been one of the biggest mistakes in the 20th century
On this thread alone!
Shabbat Shallom
Indeed—sad but true! God Bless!
People have been predicting the end of days for two millennia now and all of the given dates have been wrong. Assuming the biblical end times prophecy is real, then Israel must rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem first...no WAY they are doing that any time soon.
Meanwhile, back at home...Obola has to get permission to eat an ice cream cone from the First Wookie...
I know and understand that—however, you do realize that Israeli Priests and engineers have already spec’d out the plans for the Third and final Temple?
Psalm 83 predicts a huge war with Israel’s immediate neighbors: Syria (Damascus destroyed via Nuke bomb per Isaiah 17:1), Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, and maybe ISIS controlled territory in Iraq. After this war, the pieces start to fall into place for the last Temple to be built.
If you then read Ezekiel 38, you’ll see that a Confederation led by Russia (Magog) will lead an attack on Israel with Persia (Iran), Turkey, Libya, Sudan, Algeria, Somalia, Kazakhstan, maybe Azerbaijan, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan.

You do realize that blueprints doth not a temple make?

In this hypothetical scenario, if Syria is still controlled by Assad, why would he go to war with Israel? He's a little bit busy with a civil war. Why would Damascus be nuked? Damascus is way too close to Israel, the nuclear fallout would be bad. Hezbollah may go to war, but they are busy fighting in Syria, and ISIS is spread too thin on multiple fronts. Egypt and Jordan were the first arab countries to make peace with Israel, after they realized that fighting them is futile. The current King of Jordan seems pretty Western and the Muslim Brotherhood still don't have power in Egypt.

The Russians can barely project effective force in the Ukraine, the Russian military is a shell of its Cold War self. Iran could certainly detonate a nuke, but that's about it. Turkey is certainly a wild card, but the rest of the nations you mentioned have zero power projection capabilities. Call me skeptical, but I don't think the end times are nigh.
I invite you to actually read Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38. Yes, the nation’s names have changed to a certain degree, but a little research will point out who is mentioned.
I understand you’re skeptical. I was too at one point. Isaiah 17:1 specifically calls out Damascus as being “a heap or ruins”, in this modern age that’s a nuke going off over the city. It also says it’ll never be populated again (unlike now).
If Israel is attacked again just like in 1973, top military brass have gone on record many times saying nothing is off the table—that includes nukes. Think about a desperate Assad at the end of his rope trying to hold onto power and in a last ditch effort to save himself, calls for all muslims around him to attack Israel.
Think about the response?
Egypt’s gov’t could change on a dime just like it did in the “arab spring”. Jordan’s King has never been an ally of Israel, unlike what the press wants us to believe.
That interpretation is taken from a modern perspective though, nukes aren't necessary for ruins (Damascus is already a partially ruined warzone), and some cities simply become depopulated by other means. Does anyone live in Pompeii anymore?

Yeah, well no commander worth his salt will ever totally rule out a weapon or tactic, but that doesn't mean they're likely to use their most extreme options. The worst position the Israelis have ever been in was 1948, and the Yom Kippur War was a really close call. I could be totally wrong, but I see the IDF of 2015 being the strongest its ever been, the Arabs/Muslims missed their window of opportunity after the Yom Kippur War.

The rebel factions in Syria wont be able to hear his pleas for solidarity over the sound of their incessant snackbars.
Egypt’s gov’t could change on a dime just like it did in the “arab spring”.
True, but the Egyptian Army has an institutional memory of being horribly defeated several times in the last century. As long as their officers wont attack, neither will their enlisted.
Jordan’s King has never been an ally of Israel, unlike what the press wants us to believe.
He doesn't have to be an ally, he just needs to respect Israel's power and not go to war, that's what Abdullah's Father King Hussein did. Hussein not only sat out of the Yom Kippur quagmire, he warned the Israelis about Syria and Egypt's impending invasion. I'm not saying that I trust Abdullah, but I'm not too concerned about a Trekkie with a passion for motorcycles throwing his life and kingdom away.
Sounds like you just don’t (or won’t) believe all this is soon to pass?
I won’t try to convince you any further, but if you pay close attention to the events (and especially the alliances that already match up exactly what Bible Prophecy says), then you may start to see things differently sometime very soon.
Cheers!
You may be right, or I may be right, I’m just not going to hold my breath. The Middle East is gonna Middle East.
