Apocalyptic Storm Brewing in
MidEast
By Joel C. Rosenberg
(WASHINGTON,
D.C., October 5, 2009) -- Events are moving so
quickly in the epicenter it can be difficult to
keep track of, much less understand the big
picture. So here it is in a sentence: An
apocalpytic storm is forming over the Middle
East.
Consider the data points:
1. Iran has just been caught secretly building a
2nd uranium enrichment facilityon a military
base in the religious capital of Iran, a city
known as Qom;
2. A growing number of Western military analysts
say the design of this new facility - and its
secrecy, and location - clearly indicates it was
being built by Iran for the purpose of creating
nuclear weapons;
3. Iran has thus been caught in its third lie
since 2002 with regards to building secret
nuclear development facilities in Natanz, Arak,
and now Qom;
4. Ahmadinejad refused four times during his NBC
News interview last week to rule out the
building of nuclear weapons;
5. A.Q. Khan - the father of Pakistan's nuclear
weapons development program - has just admitted
selling advanced nuclear weapons blueprints
years ago to Iran for millions of dollars;
6. The latest IAEA report indicates Iran has
enough low-enriched uranium (LEU) to produce
enough high-enriched uranium (HEU) by 2010 to
produce two nuclear weapons;
7. Iran has just spent the weekend testing "its
most advanced missiles" capable of reaching
Israel;
8. Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad began his
speech to the U.N. by praying for Allah to
hasten the coming of the Islamic Messiah, which
according to his theology requires the
destruction of Judeo-Christian civilization as
we know it.
9. Ahmadinejad spoke more openly about his End
of the World theology during his U.N. speech
than ever before;
10. Ahmadinejad was asked for the first time by
an American reporter to describe his
relationship with the "Twelfth Imam" and
admitted on camera that he is communicating with
this mystical Shia messiah;
Humanly speaking, war is coming. The West does
not seem determined enough to stop Iran from
getting the Bomb. So unless the Lord intervenes,
Israel might soon feel compelled to launch a
preemptive strike against Iran. It won't be
easy, and the entire region could go up in
flames.
