Damascus Countdown:  Is Syria About to Use Weapons of Mass Destruction Against Israel, and/or it's Own People?

 



Will the prophecies regarding the future of Damascus come true in our lifetime? Are current events in Syria foreshadowing prophetic events?

 

(Washington, D.C., December 4, 2012) -- "Syria loads chemical weapons into bombs; military awaits Assad's order," reads an NBC News headline.

A very dangerous situation is worsening by the day. Senior Israeli intelligence sources are now saying the border with Syria could become "the hottest border in Israel" in 2013. We're currently witnessing the slaughter of more than 40,000 innocent civilians by the bloodthirsty regime in Damascus. U.S., Israeli and Western intelligence agencies increasingly fear the Assad regime will use of weapons of mass destruction against Israel, and/or against their own people, and/or the Assad regime will fall and jihadist forces will gain control of Syria's stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction and then focus on a War of Annihilation against Israel.

The U.S. and Israeli governments are warning the regime in Damascus not to use WMD, as this is a red line for international military intervention. "I want to make it absolutely clear to Assad and those under his command -- the world is watching," President Barack Obama said during a speech at the National Defense University in Washington on Monday. The use of weapons of mass destruction by Syria "is and would be totally unacceptable," the President said, adding, "And if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences and you will be held accountable."

Recent trends in the Middle East -- notably the intensifying threat of Syria using weapons of mass destruction in combination with the growing Iranian nuclear threat --echo the plot of my forthcoming political thriller, "Damascus Countdown," which will release nationwide on March 5, 2013.

What my novels do is ask what everyone is asking: What if all Hell breaks loose? What if these dark trends spin out of control? What would it look like if Israel does, in fact, launch a massive preemptive military strike against Iran? What would the retaliation look like if Iran, Syria, Hezbollah and Hamas fire back with tens of thousands of missiles raining down on Israel? And is it possible that such a horrific war could inadvertently set into motion End Times Bible prophecies, such as the prophecies in Isaiah and Jeremiah that indicate the city of Damascus will one day be utterly and completely wiped off the face of the earth? (I've posted more details about these prophecies on the blog)

"Damascus Countdown" will be the third and final novel in the trilogy that began with "The Twelfth Imam" and "The Tehran Initiative." It can now be pre-ordered on the websites of Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Christian Book Distributors, and many other Christian and general market bookstores.
